| | Live Sync adds its own files? We upgraded the foldershare on three computers to Live Sync. Now we're seeing many additional files added to the libraries. Here's an example: Let's say we use account name@xxxxxx The computers are called comp1 comp2 and comp3 The library has the file 'data.xls' in it. After Live Sync runs, we find these additional files: data-name@xxxxxx,comp1.xls data-name@xxxxxx,comp2.xls data-name@xxxxxx,comp3.xls What is going on? Thanks. |

| | Re: Live Sync adds its own files? I figured it out. This has to do with how the files in an existing library are handled during the period between one computer being upgraded and the next. These extra files can be safely deleted on any computer and their deletion will propagate leaving only the "real" version for future synchronizations. Enjoy!
