Hi, I have been using FFS for quite some time. I have a D drive and an E drive. I use the UPDATE E drive synchronization which has been working well. For some reason I haven't been able sync over the last couple days.
Below is the log.
If anyone can assist, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.....

I have the same problem. A couple of files are not being syncd as error "both sides have changes since last synchronization" keeps coming up, though only one side has changed. How to manage this?

Run a comparison and tell FFS what to do with the conflicts. iCloud issue seems like a connection issue. Do you get the same message about the same file(s) in iCloud?

Thanks for the response. When I ask to ignore, it ignores always, resulting in failing to sync the files

Ignoring isn't telling FFS what to do lol
Tell it which version to keep
