Brad,
IF the iFolder does not have huge data, you can try deleting iFolder and
uploading it once again, this way it can be seen if the issue can be reproduced
always.
You can give it a try like this:
Get an iFolder for which synchronization is not complete. From iFolder client,
do a right click on iFolder and 'Revert to a normal iFolder' and 'also delete
from server'. This will delete the iFolder from server, but the user will have
his own local copy. After few minutes, convert that normal folder to an iFolder
and upload data to server.

I have now found some files that will not sync between computers, even
though both computers show that all files are synchronized. The files
exist on computer A and the server. However, they do not exist on
computer B. Again, the iFolder clients (3.8) on both computer A and
computer B think all files are in sync.
While I only found 2 files that are in this state, this particular
iFolder contains thousands of files. There could easily be more files
that are in this state that I have not yet found.
Is there an easy way to find files that are in this state? Is there an
easy way to fix this problem?
To be honest, this scares me to death. I'm touting iFolder as this
great solution, but I'm starting to lose confidence in it. I would like
to understand why I'm starting to see so many synchronization issues.
Thanks,
Brad
