Syncing is interrupted. But why?
Receive "Syncing Is Interrupted" error message. Took the following actions to resolve:
1. Disabled firewall
2. Disabled antivirus
3. Made the Windows user an admin
4. Disabled OneDrive
5. ...
That didn't work for me yesterday...
I have solved it syncing every big folder one by one, instead of all at the same time. A process which took me about 4 hours but in the end it worked.
With some of the folders, the Syncing being interrupted happened, and I solved it pausing the syncing, and then activating it again a few times (3 or 4). Not a very good solution, but effective in the end.
Tried all of this and it doesn't work.
I've tried all suggestions in this thread. I've re-installed dropbox client, updated to latest macOS 14.4.1. Restarted computer, signed out signed in etc.
Done folder by folder etc not to overwhelm the client but still not working after so many attempts.
There must be a better solution for this from dropbox. What I noticed from all my attempts it's that it's always 120 synching issues all saying the same thing, what has been mentioned in this thread before. (Unable to sync while file is in use. Close the file to resume syncing.)
Many of which files are old and no one in my team is using them.
Please let me know if there is any solution to this problem?
Leave the machine awake and running for a couple hours and see if the indexing/syncing count drops when you hover over dropbox on the toolbar. Worked for me
I did try that yesterday but I'll try again this evening with less folders being synced. Thanks for swift reply.
