Vista - placeholder files, and queing up by server

06-07-2008

Over the last 48 hours, all files that have been created or modified in all
directories on my laptop are not being synced up to my desktop. Instead, I
get a placeholder file. If I try to open it, I get a message on the
foldershare window stating " You've selected a placeholder file. Foldershare
will now try to download the actual file from another computer". Then, on
the activity window, the status of the file reads "Queued by server". Does
anyone have a clue what is on? Again, 48 hours and no syncing. Thanks in
advance

Richard,
Could you please verify whether the library you are mentioning is set for
automatic syncing? If the library is set for manual, this is the expected
behavior.

Thanks,
