Checking Sync Status

You can check the status of your most recent sync in the main dashboard, the mini dashboard, or on the system tray icon.

Status in the main dashboard

After a sync operation runs, if there are any errors or skipped files, the main dashboard displays a count in the upper-right corner. It also displays a a red error sign, a yellow warning sign, or a check (to indicate a successful run) beside the sync type or backup folder listing.


Status flags in the mini-dashboard

  • If there were conflicts in the most recent sync operation, the mini-dashboard displays a red error flag with the number of conflicts.
  • If there were skipped files in the most recent sync, the mini-dashboard displays a yellow flag with the number of skipped files.
  • If the most recent sync was successful, a check in a blue circle appears before the type of sync (Cloud storage or Network Folders & Backups).
    Click the red or yellow flag in the mini-dashboard to go to the main dashboard's Sync Activity page to see the conflicts or skipped files.

Status flags in the system tray

You don't have to open one of the dashboards to check your sync status. Sync alerts you to problems with a status indicator that appears as a dot overlaying the icon in the system tray:


The color of the dot indicates the status of the most recent sync operation:
