idisk sync problem fix

| | Comments (0)
"dotwaffle" wrote in the apple support forum a fix for the less than verbose "last sync failed" when using idisk:

I noticed that the sync was touching some files in .FileSync on the iDisk, so I guess that I lost net access during a sync and it left it in a damaged condition.

So, I chose to disconnect the iDisk, turn off Syncing, open a Finder with the iDisk mounted online, then opened iTerm (Terminal will do)

I navigated to my iDisk (in my case cd /Volumes/dotwaffle) and ran the following command:

sudo rm -rf .FileSync/ .TemporaryItems/ ._.TemporaryItems .com.apple.timemachine.supported
