Hello,

I have SkyDrive on my Windows 8 Notebook (Modern UI and Desktop), Windows RT, iPhone, and WP8 devices. They all so sync without any issues, but my OSX Mountain Lion SkyDrive app is always syncing. If I look at the status it says downloading 13 files, 1mb of 51mb... check a few minutes later it will restart from 0MB work its way up to around 2MB and start over again. If I add new files to the folder they do sync without any issues.

I've looked through the logs generated and looks like some errors. I also recently updated to the latest version hoping it would solve the issue. Finally I have un-installed, deleted all local files, re-installed and it still happens.

Any suggestions or a place I can upload the OSX logs too?

Hello

 

I have asked this question previously with no response...

 

My windows 7 pc crashed.  I was running outlook 2013 and syncing my contacts between outlook, Hotmail and my iphone.  Life was good.  I purchased a windows 8 pc and installed office 2010 (not 2013).  My contacts sync just fine, but none of the photos will sync to outlook.  They are still on my iPhone, but I cannot get them to sync to outlook.  Can someone please help?  Obviously, it is not the end of the world, but it is a feature Microsoft has provided, and one I have grown quite fond of, so I would really like it to work.

??? One of the questions below asks Mobile Version?  Not sure how to answer.  This affects my phone but this is not about the mobile version of Outlook.

I use Skydrive to sync between home PC and travel laptop.  Laptop is now too full, I need to remove some of the syncing files from sync without losing them entirely  Unfortunately this does not seem to be a simple matter of right-clicking on the folder and selecting "stop syncing."  I can find no solution in forums or in Skydrive.  Please advise!

OS - Windows 8.1 Preview

PHONE - Nokia Lumia 620

TABLET - Asus Vivo Tab RT with Windows 8.1 RT Preview


I have set my phone and tablet to auto sync my Camera Roll to Skydrive.  For some reason, one or the other will not use my default photo folder (called Pictures).  When new photos are sync'd from Camera Roll to Skydrive a new folder is created, called either "Pictures 1" or "Skydrive-Pictures".  There is no setting I can find to tell auto sync where to send Camera Roll photos, so this problem keeps recurring despite numerous attempts to roll "Pictures 1" into the correct "Pictures" folder.  On some syncs, Skydrive has even tried to move all 19gb of my photos into the new "Pictures 1" folder!!  This takes a lot of work to correct.


Anyone else have this problem?  Is it a Preview bug or is there a setting or registry item somewhere that can be changed?

Thanx.

I had an unfortunate event last night where a PC with an old version of my skydrive data had an incorrect system time set and was synced as newer versions of the actual newer versions.

Is there any way to rollback a sync ?
Hi,

I have purchased and installed Microsoft 365, and downloaded SkyDrive pro 2013.

When I chose 'sync' in the skydrive tab of my office web app, I am prompted as to which library I would like to sync and the location to save the folder.

However, when attempting to sync, I have encountered a few problems, such as:
  • Blue arrows (in a circular shape) are constantly displayed, and the 'green sync tick' never appears
  • Microsoft update centre error message - talking about encountering a problem with the document cache & offering to repair (repair does nothing)
  • Nothing happening when I click sync in the office web app
These are the steps I have attempted to resolve the issue - to NO AVAIL;
  • Call Microsoft support (several times) and was waiting on a call back for two weeks, until they finally referred me to online help
  • Change / repair both Office 365 and SkyDrive Pro 2013 via control panel
  • Change the library that I have chosen to sync with
  • Uninstall SkyDrive Pro 2013 client and reinstall it.  I have done this step many times, altering between the 64-bit and 32-bit versions
  • Uninstall Office 365 AND SkyDrive Pro 2013 client - then perform a full reinstall
The above dot points have NOT worked on several computers.

The thing that is even more confusing to me is that I have access to three computers (all with different specs) that this 365 Home Premium & SkyDrive Pro client works fine on.

The specs for the computer with the above issues are as follows;
OS: Windows 7 Pro
Office: Microsoft Office 2013 - Home Premium

Thank you - Microsoft, for what I am sure will be an extremely prompt and helpful reply.

Regards,

Dale Bradley
I have installed and re-installed.  I have made sure "fetch" files is chosen.  I have made sure my internet connection is working.  no luck.  The app will sync everything from the web, but if I make any changes to files/folders from my laptop, the web will NOT sync to the app.
I have just got a HTC S8 and want it to sync with my hotmail account on my laptop.  How do i do this?  
Hey,

I installed the official Outlook.com application on my Sony Xperia U, running android 4.0.4.
It worked perfectly over WiFi but can't sync over 3G.

After searching the forum for answers, I found a workaround on http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/forum/mail-sync/outlookcom-app-on-android-phone-will-only-work/978dd5e2-d24c-4f3b-9bdb-547f021679db but I can't apply it on my device since my APN settings are locked.

How can I fix this?
