      How to set up my OneDrive 365 not syncing everything

    • @fareshajjar1208
      @fareshajjar1208 หลายเดือนก่อน

      What a complicated mess. Asked to login 14 times. Forced to change my password 4 times. Finally after subbing the monthly OneDrive cloud, it refuses to backup credentials and tells me to verify my identity yet again (15th time) but does not tell me how I am to do this. So incredibly sorry I tried to do anything with Microsoft. What a garbage can of needless complications.

    You are terrific at explaining things! Thank you for that. It is confusing, however, that you have to blur out so much of your personal files, etc. So that the novice learner can't tell what you're showing. May I suggest that you create a demo user account that doesn't have personal files so that you don't have to blur things out? I would also suggest that the demo account also have the Windows toolbar at the bottom. I understand why you have it on the left, but you lose many newbies with it there. Thanks!!

      I went thru my notification settings over a year ago and turned off the ones I don't want. Later I UNINSTALLED OneDrive but am suddenly getting popup notifications each time I get on my pc after being gone overnight to backup my files to onedrive! How can that be when it is uninstalled??? There are no more notifications to turn off - been thru them all.

    Been using computers/windows for many years. I find this 365 stuff very confusing. It looks nothing like the old versions. I can't figure out how to delete files, click and drag a file to a new folder. I can't do really basic stuff. What am I missing? I have an old computer (5 years) but that shouldn't matter since all of this is on the cloud.

      I agree with these comments on confusion. What I need is a description of what is actually happening to the files at the outset and this video did not do this. For instance the term download was used but to where?
      The term "in one drive" was used but what does this mean? To me it suggests ypu have to move folders in files into one drive just like you would to another physical drive. But then you talk about syncing existing folders. Definition please.

    Thank you. Excellent tutorial! We have Microsoft Office 365 Family. I have one desktop computer sync all files and store locally. That way I can use a cloud backup service as a secondary backup location (IDrive errors out on OneDrive placeholders). My Surface and other devices are set to on-demand file storage, so it doesn't consume too much storage.

    Hi Lea. I am unable to delete files on One Drive. I’ve watched 100 tutorials and something is going on that I cannot figure out. This is a work computer but these are my files. I’ve asked our IT guy and he is clueless. I go to OneDrive; find a folder or file I want to delete; hit DELETE and I am told cannot delete. Or… SOMETIMES; it says deleted but does not appear in the recycle bin and it’s still there. I want to keep ONE DRIVE but I am over the storage limit and I want to purge… Thank you… Gene

Then when they go to Unsync their OneDrive, their files are only on OneDrive and they panic because they think they deleted everything.

    • @LeaDavid
      @LeaDavid  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Alison! In general, there is not big difference. The only advantage I see using the desktop app/OneDrive in file explorer is that it's a lot easier to access and very native to use, just like you would use any other local folder. Eventually, however, it's a matter of personal preference. All the best, Lea

      Hi. Good question I am not entirely sure about. But I assume if the account will only be blocked and stay "alive", the folder will still be there. However, if the account/user will be deleted, all the information will be gone. In your case, I would check with your IT department.

    • @LeaDavid
      @LeaDavid  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi, yes. That's the idea to have them backed up in the cloud to free up space locally. However, I would suggest to try it first with some picture copies to check if you have synced and set up everything correctly. Best, Lea

    Hi. I have a quick query. I uploaded a folder on my computer desktop onedrive with the option 'always keep on this device'. It is now available to access only on onedrive and is gone from the desktop. Is there a possibility that it stays on the desktop and gets synced to the cloud in background?

    Fine and good, but how to you segregate syncing? I have one MS account, but own two computers. I use them for very different tasks. I want to sync both to one drive for backup purposes only. The issue is if I have 8GB of data on one PC I use for CAD only, when I turn on my second PC that I use for gaming, ALL those files automatically start to show up and clutter that PC. Deleting them will have the terrible affect of deleting them from the PC I want them to be on! My only workaround "so far" - I haven't verified this yet was to turn off Onedrive syncing, maybe uninstalling from one PC. How can you segregate what gets synced to what?

    • @LeaDavid
      @LeaDavid  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi there! As I mention in the video, you can go to your OneDrive settings (on each device) and select or deselect the folders and files you would like to sync or not. Hope this helps, Lea

    • @HidekoYamamoto94
      @HidekoYamamoto94 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Little Info: If you sync the CAD files to OneDrive, it doesnt use any storage on your other computer, only if you double click the file to open it. You can check this in the File Properties. If the "Size on Disk" are 0 Bytes, then it is not on the local drive on the computer.

    I came across a very tiring problem with onedrive. I ran out of space on it and tried to un-sync my files, but when I do it, everything from my desktop disappears, besides icons and files that are not connected to OneDrive for some reason. I can't choose folders, they're unclickable for me.
    Also I downloaded my files to the pc and everything has the full green tick, but when I remove it from onedrive it still disappears from my computer. I have no idea what to do anymore. Nothing I find on the internet helps. It feels like 90% of my device files are in absolute connection with OneDrive.

    In my opinion MEGA is king of cloud specially for those people which carry alot of data.
    The price are very reasonable.
    My Second choice is Apple ICLOUD is also available on windows.
    One thing one-drive i use is onenote
    Idk why microsoft doesn’t allow as to store onenote file in other places hate this strategy technic keeps user on their platform.

Ich sehe überall nur ein Seitensymbol. Erst wenn ich die Seite anklicke, sehe ich welches Foto dahinter steckt. Ich konnte leider noch nicht herausfinden wie ich das ändere. Vielleicht kannst du mir helfen? Ich habe Windows 11Home.

      Hallo Sabine, vielen Dank für dein Feedback! Aus der Ferne (ohne zu wissen, ob du die Browser oder Desktop/File Explorer Version nutzt) kann ich mir lediglich vorstellen, dass du die Ansicht der Bilder geändert hast. Probier doch mal folgendes: a) Browser: oben rechts solltest du eine Kachel sehen und dort verschiedene Ansichten auswählen können, b) File Explorer: dort solltest du unter Ansicht/View auch die verschiedenen Optionen wählen können (Vorschauch ja/nein, Größe, etc.). Ich hoffe das hilfe und viele Grüße, Lea

However when I open up a picture folder, aside from the pictures showing, there are blank jpg files with an icon but says it cannot access the photo. Each file is 4K size and these may be duplicates. Also one drive won’t play any of the camera or iPhone videos I’ve uploaded. Says can’t access right now and to try again later.

    Thank you, Lea! You explain things very clearly. I found this because I was looking for the most efficient way to move files to a new Surface Pro. I ended up watching 4 of your videos!
    This question may have an obvious answer, but when I reorganize my file and folder structure based on your other excellent video, will OneDrive automatically update to the revised folder structure as I work my way through the reorganization process?

    • @LeaDavid
      @LeaDavid  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Robert, thank you so much for your support! Not sure what you mean by "OneDrive automatically update". If you are working in OneDrive in the browser that's for sure, because you are changing your OneDrive folder structure. If you are working in your file explorer, where you have synced and mirrored your OneDrive, then as well. However, if you are working on your local drive, for example, that is not synced with OneDrive, OneDrive will not update (only synced files and folders will do so). Hope this answers your question. All the best, Lea

    • @robertpilgrim5727
      @robertpilgrim5727 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@LeaDavid Thanks, Lea. Your answer is very complete and accurate. When I asked the question, I was unfamiliar with OneDrive, and needed to work through the process to understand how it worked, so I could predict what it would do. The process of setting up OneDrive and designating the files and folders to sync actually clarified the synchronization mechanism for me. Thanks again for your great videos!

I am so unsure of signed in in, shortcuts accessibility options. I'm a very frustrated singer/ songwriter with 50,000 songs and my own songs and collaborations waiting to be organized, worked on and distributed. I'm studying many TH-cam Videos regarding this.(my shoulders are like stone from tension) Previously, while backing up many desktop songs, pictures and Word documents, data would transfer at 0kb rate and fail to transfer, couldn't even delete these I'm still studying this...If only their was a TH-cam for 75 year old's. who are ambitious but fearful of losing tears and years of data. Being a writer, I so fear not being able to back up and/or access documents and media. 4/3/2024 ..Help, ...please! Doug in Michigan, USA

    I think one drive is an abomination. All these facilities are well and good and I would like to use some but when you install 365 it takes over your computer and it is extremely difficult to regain control . I have a personal computer and I want to control where my documents are stored and backed up. I am happy to have a one drive folder to store documents I want to share or access from multiple locations. I do not store data on the c drive and I had my libraries on other drives. One drive shifted them all to the C drive and when I installed outlook it moved my mail files to the cloud (as well as changing my pop 3 to imap and trashing all my customizations. These programs in themselves are ok but the installation programs are pure evil - no choices and you only find out the damage after the effect.

    I am so confused about Onedrive - As an older person (81) I find it very hard to understand how it works and my head is spinning. When I take photos on my phone, I understand they will be shared to my tablet and desktop computers. After they have been shared, I then want to delete them from my phone, but if I do does that then delete from other appliances? This may seem like a simple question to you, but technology is not easy for someone my age, and I only need to keep photos on my main computer (i.e.desktop).
