OneDrive for Mac "Turn on files on-demand" not working
In OneDrive on a Mac running Mojave I am trying to activate Files On-Demand. Every time I click "Turn on files on-demand" OneDrive crashes and reboots but the option never activates. Is there a scrip...
Jason Drew Did you figure out a solution to this problem? I have two Macs struggling with it.
IanBanker_ No. There are literally no troubleshooting options other than ''uninstall and reinstall''. There is no information online. I ended up dropping OneDrive and buying a NAS.
- Us too ... not good, no response, no answer 😞
JRP_Mac_PC_IT_Systems I recently installed OneDrive on a new Mac and I can confirm that files-on-demand is now on by default. However, I highly recommend limiting the quantity of files you put in OneDrive for Mac. The indexing just isn't as good as on PC so you will have constant issues if you let the drive become too big.
If you have a lot of files, consider investing in a NAS. I bought a Synology DS218+ and it is absolutely amazing.
