Hi Jeremy,
Thanks for the reply. Update:
(1) Now it's working
(3) Happened again. The same computer had 4/5 libraries turn "gray". This
might be related to (2) since it's always the same 4 libraries that have the
problem. These are all 4 libraries that used to exist at "Shared Libraries"
until last week when I deleted them and remade them as "Personal Libraries".
I re-re-re-added Computer "W" to one of these libraries and left the others
untouched. Curious to see what happens now.
Cheers,
-Alex
