Set up:
- Syncing a DTP DB via DT using WebDAV Server location
- Sync via DT and use the DB on a desktop mac (A) and laptop (B)
- Have a folder on the desktop of mac A that I index into the DB
- upon syncing DT on mac B, the folder and files appear of the desktop and within the DB, as expected > the files are in the DB on both macs and the folder (with the files) appear on the desktops of both Macs
Issues occur when selecting the indexed folder in the DB and selecting “Move Into Database” on mac A and then after DT synsc the DB:
-
on mac A
- the files move into the DB but the folder does not and DT throws an error “Folder is not empty” and the folder remains on the desktop of the mac A.
- the folder still shows as indexed in the DB on mac B and using the move in command again yields no change leaving the folder on the desktop and showing as indexed in the DB
- If I move the files to a new group in the DB (for safety) and delete the Desktop folder, using the “Show in Finder” command on the DB folder that erroneously shows as indexed in the DB opens the Desktop folder in the finder - but of course there is no folder there, (Yes I tried the Update Items command)
- Also sometimes files in subfolders of the indexed folder and the subfolder are not moved into the D, either.
-
After the DB syncs to mac B:
- the desktop folder remains on the the desktop of mac B
- Some but not all of the files / sub folder / or its files move into the DB
- similar behavior as what occurs on mac A - files remaining on the desktop and DT sync errors
Suggestions for correcting - or have a missed something in the expected behavior?
Thanx
