Can edit document stored in SharePoint in Word Online but not Word 2016
Hi all - weird one for you! We've got a load of Word files in a document library in SharePoint (Office 365). The files use 2 content types (which may or may not be relevant) - here's the problem...
Got to the bottom of this at last! I was syncing this library to OneDrive and apparently syncing libraries which include different content types causes problems and prevents updating of the documents from OneDrive. I've stopped the sync and all now works fine ... other than from OneDrive.
Really hoping Microsoft resolve the issues of syncing SharePoint doc libraries which utilise content types as it's killing adoption of their tools for us.
This fixed my issue, I had even tried Un-syncing deleting and re-syncing but that didn't work the first time, I may give it another try though.
