Bittorrent Sync Won't Let Me "authorize" A New Computer

Step 4 here:

never happens.

 

I went through steps 1-3 no problem. I have the computer I'm sitting at saying "pending approval".

 

But there is no ".... wants access to TREVOR" with a green checkmark or red arrow after it on my work computer.

 

In short, I can set up sync, I can send an invite to sync, I can receive the invite, I can run BT sync in the 2nd computer, and I can "connect" but the 1st computer never gives me the option to "authorize" the 2nd computer.

 

Granted, the computers are at home and at work.

 

It is possible that the home computer is going to sleep by the time I get to work. Would that stop the computer at work from knowing that the computer at home has said please approve me and is stuck at "Pending approval"?

 

I'm using the latest Mac OS X Mavericks at work, and the latest BETA of Mac OS X Yosemite at home.
