There is a permanently available status overview under the menu point “Status”. It shows which Outlook® folder are actually being synchronized in which direction.

In the status diagram information and warnings about the found firewall settings and connection errors are shown. SimpleSYN shows a warning when noticing that the Windows® firewall was not configured correctly. Should a third party firewall be used, a warning will be shown as well. More information about the needed firewall settings can be found here.

It is possible to abort the synchronization of a single Outlook® folder. Click on “Cancel” to stop the synchronization of an Outlook® folder. The data in the affected folder will not be synchronized completely.

In the case of the Outlook® folder having been marked for synchronization on several computers, it is possible that the synchronization restarts even after having been aborted. Abort the synchronization again until the folder is not being synchronized anymore. This can for example happen when the folder is supposed to be synchronized on the SimpleSYN-client and on the SimpleSYN-server automatically when modifications occur.

The synchronization of an automatically synchronizing Outlook® folder will restart with modification in the folder after an aborted synchronization.

Pending synchronization

Click on the menu point “Status” and afterwards on “Pending synchronization” to view all Outlook® folders currently marked for synchronization.

Right click a folder to open a shortcut menu. In this menu it is possible to delete the mark for synchronization.
