1 month agoHey SarahSwanston2026 - sorry to hear about your syncing issue.
Can you please let me know what the app states when you click on the text next to the warning sign?
Also, have you tried clicking on the 'see issues' option that shows in your screenshot?
If you could send us a screenshot of the error you get when you try to sync and/or download these files as well, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you.
