This is a FRIGGIN JOKE! The sync icons came back over the weekend and now this morning they are gone again on my M3. Machine was on all night - was fine last night when I stopped working @ 9:30.
Wow if DB is this unstable with something this simple then is this service trustworthy for our files?
Oh and now I just got an email from DB about AI power. MAYBE they should be working on what doesn't work before they introduce more things that WON'T WORK!

1 month agoJ-Reacher sometimes things just need to work the way we expect them to, so I completely understand your response here. I took a look into your support case and saw that your issue has been escalated so it can be investigated thoroughly.
But beyond your individual case, you've made larger points about how changes are implemented and shown the effects of how they impact customers. You highlighted the need for more control over which version of the app you're using, and we'll take your feedback and raise it to the appropriate team.

Well if something as simple as this becomes an issue which still hasn't been resolved then how can a customer rely on their files being on your server?
This has been an issue in the past - not with me but with other customers. I have used DB for many years and never had an issue until now.
But if this is going to become the norm - where things just happen and you guys don't know why then it worries me about the trust I have with my files being on your server.

So after my computer has been on all day - I just rebooted and now on my M3 - the sync icons are back.
