Different File Numbers After Syncing

Hi,

 

File numbers do not match after syncing.

 

I have an issue between Mac(Mavericks) and Linux(Ubuntu 14.04.1)

 

Both versions are Version 1.3.109

 

The syncing is already finished. 

 

Linux 135.13GB / 46965 files

Mac 135.1GB / 46967 files

Mac has 2 more files. Why different? Any hint?

There are several reasons which can force showing different amount of files:

  1. .SyncIgnore.
    Being different on different computers it might cause different files to be calculated
  2. Files / folders inaccessible for indexing.
    Usually - locked by other apps
  3. Dynamic state
    Sync is not complete yet. Some files are yet to be transferred (and might get stuck by some reason).

I suggest checking sync ignore and looking into "Devices" tab - you can click the "i" button to see which files are still in the queue for syncing. Also, how was the folder synced? Did you pre-copy files from one peer to another or merged folders (2 peers has 2 set of files which are merged by Sync) or it was clean Sync from one peer to another empty folder on another peer?
