Offline Files Cannot Be Enabled.
Dec 21, 2008I am running Vista Ultimate SP1 on my laptop. The Z: drive maps to an Iomega StorCenter NAS. I can read/write folders, files, etc. with no problem. When I disconnect from the network, I can still see the Z: drive. The folders that I made available offline are accessible and there are placeholders (folder has an X on it) for folders that I did not make available offline.
When I connect back to the network, I would do a reboot and I can see all of the files on the Z: drive again. Given this, it appears that Offline Files is enable. Or, is it? In the Control Panel / Offline Files / General tab, I clicked on "Enable Offline Files" and I got the message below............
Offline Files Not Working
Mar 30, 2008Machine is part of a domain. Everything worked fine using XP. Upgraded to Vista, and now Offline Files is not working. Tried SP1, same problem. File server is Windows Server 2003 Cluster. The "Offline Availability" says "Not available". What does that mean? The user does login to another machine and access these files. But there's like 500 files and all files and folders say "Not available" for Offline Availability. Other users (in same Org Unit) can log into that same machine and Offline Files works fine. I've tried removing the profile on that computer and re-creating it, but same problem. Originally the Org Unit for these users didn't allow access to Control Panel. Could that have something to do with it, since Sync Center and Offline Files features are under Control Panel? But even after allowing Control Panel, still same problem.

Mar 23, 2008I have my documents redirected to the server and therefore Vista has an offline copy of these files.
I notice that some files are failing to synchronize automatically, but will synchronize if I manually perform it.
For example:
An 767KB xls file changed in Vista requires a manual synchronization.A 1KB txt file will synchronize immediately.
Both files are in the same folder.
I also notice that Sync Center rarely updates the Offline Files status. The Last sync date could be days ago. It will update if I manually synchronize, but it won't update automatically.
If the user logs off or on, the xls file still won't synchronize. I notice this on both Vista RTM and SP1 beta machines.
XP machines will update the server share immediately.

Mar 24, 2008I have a notebook with Vista-Ultimate on it.I have a Intel SS4000-E NAS unit in my network on wich all of my data resides.I have marked several files/folders for 'allways available offline' but when I'm offline I can't open the files (Error: 0x800710FE: This file is currently not available for use on this computer). Syncing also gives an
error for each and every file in the Sync-Center 'The process cannot access
the file because it is being used by another process' while I'm the only
user on the system at this time and it's NOT in use.I've read that offline files may not work correctly with NAS units, I've also seen some postings about making changes to the 'samba' software ? But I don't know how to do that or if the SS4000 even uses Samba.I'm not sure how to proceed, but I really, really, really need my offline
files.
Notebook: Offline Files Displayed Colored
Mar 23, 2008I use Vista Business with all current updates on a laptop. On a server (NAS, Samba V3.0.26a), are the application files in the standard operation. To work with the files works always smoothly. In the notebook, I have some files declared as offline files and thesynchronization works smoothly. At the offline files is a yellow circle with green arrows. In the Control Panel / Offline Files / Disk use corresponds to thememory used by the offline files correct. When I use the notebook separate from the network, the offline files displayed colored. Up to here everything is still okay! If I try to open an offline file it is not to open or at favorites the Internet link is not available :eek: If you look at the properties it shows the following: size: 323MB size on Disk: 20KB :confused: Why are files missing? What is in the offline files defect?

View 4 Replies View RelatedSlow Performance When Working Online With Offline Files
Mar 29, 2008I am currently testing Vista in our XP Pro/2003 environment. The XP clients perform perfectly in the same setup. We are using Netgear Managed Switches. To give you an idea of what I mean by slow/fine. When working offline, Word 2007 (or example) will open in less than 2 secs. When working online it is likely to take at least 10 secs. The HDD is busy continuously, slowing performance to a crawl. Something else I have observed is that this High Disk Activity does not start until all of the files that the user has chosen to be offline have been downloaded into the cache as observed by Network
Utilization in task manager. I have a feeling the problem may lay in Vista's background sync? All users are using roaming profiles (Stored on a seperate server) and Folder redirection for all profile folders.
Remove Sync Center Logo From Offline Files
Feb 20, 2007Microsoft has spent a lot of work on updating Offline Files in Windows Vista with the new Sync Center. For those of you that do not know or use Offline Files, they are simply a local replica of a file that is on a network share. These replicas allow you to work on files you have set to be available offline even if you are not connected to say your corporate network or home server. You can manage all of the offline file settings in one place, the Sync Center.
The only problem I have with the new offline files is the massive green icon that is appended on top of any file that is setup to sync as an offline file. This provides a nice visual clue but often blocks a big portion or almost the entire icon depending on your explorer view. This is unnecessary and since you can manage your offline file from the new Sync Center, it is no longer really needed to find out what files are setup to be synced.
Follow these steps to disable the offline files logo from appearing on your files:
Click on the Start Menu, key in regedit and hit Enter........
File Synchronization: Access To Other Files Set Up For Offline Access
Jun 23, 2008I have my laptop connecting to a server under AD control. My laptop is not joined to AD by design. I set up some files using 'Sync' to have them available to me offline. My AD password has since changed and I cannot connect to the server to have access to other files set up for offline access. When I attempt to remap the drive, I get an error stating I am already connected using the credentials provided. This is not true, since I cannot access the server. What do I need to do to fix this problem?

The instruction reads:- Navigate to a Folder, right-click the directory and chose "Always available offline"
When I navigate to a Folder in My Documents and right-click on it I do not get "Always available offline" as an option.
How do I get the Directory, so that I can proceed with the right-click on the Folder and get the desired result.

Favorites To Appear In Windows Explorer Again - Offline
Jun 6, 2008I used Favorites alot in Windows explorer (not IE). It saved me huge amounts of navigation time. It is really rotten that it is not available. As a matter of fact, the whole hidden navigation, lack of easily viewable menus only slows me down and makes working with Windows Vista very, very, frustrating. At least put offline Favorites back in Windows Explorer. Favorites should not just be an Internet feature. When I want to dive 7 levels down to a particular folder, I want to do it right now, not 8 clicks from now.

View 9 Replies View RelatedDrive Offline To Be Disapeared From Windows Explorer
Apr 26, 2008I have two hard disks in my computer. Nowadays many people have more than one hard disk. Let's call them A and B. A is a large disk, and I have installed Windows on A. Most of my personal files are also stored on A. B, however, is relatively small and contains seldom used files and back up copies. Since B is not often accessed, B usually gets turned off by OS. But for no apparent reason ( I guess it maybe due to some sort of defragmentation or indexing) B gets turned on making an annoying sound.
I could manually cut off the power by opening the chassi and plugging out the power code of B, but that will be even more annoying. I can set B won't be turned off, but it will waste a lot of power since B is idle most of the time. Can't I just make the B offline till I want it to be functioning again? I mean I'd like to turn B off using some sort of software and prevent it to be automatically turned on until, I explicitly turn it on. I saw PerfectDisk (a defragmenation software) make a drive offline so that it to be disapeared from Windows Explorer. So it should be possible in some way....
Win98 Printer Share Is Perpetually Offline After Rebooting
Oct 10, 2009For years, I've had an HP DeskJet 812C connected to the parallel port on my Win98SE computer. The printer is shared, and I've had no problems printing from Windows XP. Enter Windows Vista. I set up Vista to use client-side rendering by adding a local printer and having it point to the port for the printer. Everything works fine when I set it up, until I reboot the Vista computer. When that happens, Vista lists the printer as "offline" and NOTHING I do will allow it to print again. The only thing I can do is add another printer, have it point to the same port, and delete the old printer.
How do I fix this problem, or alternately, how do work around the problem by making a script to automatically add a local printer set to print to the shared port on bootup and delete it on shutdown? I have no idea how to make such a script or if it is even possible. I'm using Vista 64-bit home premium. I should mention that this is definitely a Vista problem, because I have Virtual PC installed on that same computer to run Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and the virtual machine on the same hardware with the troublesome Vista as the host OS has absolutely NO problem with the printer or file shares as far as the Win98SE computer is concerned. As a consequence I'm resorting to doing all my Office Suite work with Virtual PC as I don't want the hassle of forgetting to reinstall the damn printer every time I want to print.

I don't know exactly what happened, I probably mashed the touch pad. Anyway, now I can't find the files anymore. I've tried running a search but it has come to no avail. How do I find my files? If it makes any difference the files were on a memory stick.
View 9 Replies View RelatedExplorer Files Dont Work And Can't Delete Files
Jul 14, 2009While installing a program, the process was interrupted and the install created 62000 files using 160gig in my syswow64 folder virtually using all my hd space. However when you go into the syswow64 folder, there is only about 2000 files and 1 gig of space used. I have set the folders to show all hidden files. When I go into the ms dos prompt and do a directory, the files match the 1 gig data.
I can't delete these 62000 files and free up the 160 gig space because I don't believe they are actually there on the hard drive but explorer thinks they are there. Is there any way to rebuild, sync, or otherwise get windows explorer to recognize the correct amount of files that are actually in my syswow64 folder.(2000files 1gig and not 62000files 160gig)
