Bridge & your devices · Collab Sync

What do Collab Sync's status labels mean?

Short answer: In sync means both Macs match; Syncing… means changes are moving; Waiting for… means the other Mac is away or hasn't accepted; Paused is your pause; Needs attention means open Collab Sync to see what's wrong.

Each synced folder shows one plain-English status:

  • In sync — both Macs match.
  • Syncing… — changes are being sent now.
  • Waiting for ‹the other Mac› — it's offline or hasn't accepted yet.
  • Paused — you paused it.
  • Needs attention — something needs you; open Collab Sync to see what.

You can Pause, Resume or Remove any synced folder.
