Sync
903 TopicsChange folder name Onedrive
Good afternoon everyone, I have several Onedrive accounts. When I synchronize them, my computer names them all the same but for a final number: Onedrive - Educacyl / Onedrive - Educacyl (1) / Onedrive -Educacyl (2), etc. I would like to name them in a different way in my computers. How can I do that? I work both with Mac and Windows 10.594KViews1like4CommentsOneDrive stuck on "signing in"
Hi, I'm trying to use Onedrive and Onenote, but it seems to be really terrible 50% of the time. Sometimes when I log on my pc, it says I have to log in, and in doing so, is stuck on a "signing in" loop, until it says some error code about me not having an internet connection. Here's what I've tried: 1. Close and open Onedrive 2. Removing auth from the pc and adding it again 3. Reinstalling Onedrive 4. Change Wi-Fi 5. Do a /reset in Windows run AND cmd 6. Update drivers 7. Install the newest Onedrive from the website 8. Try the app-version found in Windows Store What am I supposed to do? I don't want to restart my pc every time it doesn't work, that's a terrible fix.314KViews6likes56CommentsFrom "Available on this device" to "Always available on this device"
With Files On-Demand, I am trying to understand the point of changing the status from "Available on this device" to "Always available on this device". As I understand it, as soon as the status becomes "Available on this device" , OneDrive maintains a sync'ed copy available both online and on the local device. If so, what difference does it make when the status is changed to "Always available on this device"?Solved179KViews2likes15CommentsAdd and Open files shared with you in windows explorer (OneDrive for Business)
Is there any way to add and open files shared with me onto my OneDrive -- ie. To work on those files directly on my windows explorer folder, under my local OneDrive folder? Came across this article https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Add-and-sync-shared-folders-to-OneDrive-8a63cd47-1526-4cd8-bd09-ee3f9bfc1504. However can't seem to find the option to Add a shared folder to my Onedrive. Suspect perhaps its not available on the business version of OneDrive? Currently using the latest OneDrive for Business client (version 2016, build 17.3.6743.1212).Solved128KViews2likes6CommentsOnedrive readonly (green locks)
I've recently installed the latest preview build on the next-gen OneDrive client. I installed this version to test SharePoint document library syncing. I'm able to sync document libraries, but all folders and files appear to be read only on my laptop. I also see green lock icons instead of green checkmarks on all these files and folders. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I already tried to reset OneDrive and did a complete reinstall. Unfortunately I still see the green locks. I have these locks only with team sites. My personal OneDrive is working without problems.83KViews0likes44CommentsSharePoint Online - OneDrive - Read Only Sync Error
Hi, about a month ago several thousand of our document libraries based on content types started syncing to OneDrive in Read Only mode. When viewing the library in OneDrive, green padlock symbols appear alongside files and folders. The cause – although the site content types show columns as optional, mandatory columns from the parent content type have re-appeared behind the scenes – hidden from view. These columns were made optional or removed on the site content type, but for some reason they've re-appeared. The parent content types don't even have mandatory columns anymore. To fix: 1. Go to “Library Settings” then “Advanced Settings” 2. In the first option, choose “No" for “Allow management of content types” and click OK 3. On this next screen, in the Column section you will see the culprit columns are marked as Required. 4. Click the columns which are required, and change to option “Require that this column contains information” to No 5. After changing the columns back to optional, the folder in OneDrive should become available immediately. 6. Then go back to “Advanced Settings" and enable content types again 7. Finally, check that the files are again editable in OneDrive. This fix provided by Microsoft support is not acceptable due to the number of libraries affected. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?76KViews1like6Comments
