Question

Sync Not Supported on network locations.

I was using a ExFat External HD to sync CC with a MacBook Pro Intel. It was working fine. 

I upgraded to a M1Max Mac Studio and CC is giving me the error Sync Not Supported On Network Locations. Even though I'm using the same exact HD?

 

I've read the forum post about formatting AFPS Vs EXfat and having it the same. It's not that. Also that doens't make much sense. It would mean that whatever format you start CC with you would need to use forever. There has to be a way to sync to an external drive when upgrading and changing projects.

Well, I guess it is an APFS vs Exfat issue after all. However, I have moved on and upgraded and things have changed. How do I stop the APFS sync and restart with ExFat Syncing. Or do I have to use AFPS forever since that what I started with one day.

it's not clear to me what problem you're seeing, unless you're using the same hard drive to sync more than one computer.  is that what you're doing?

Different drives on different computers. Although if I use the same drive it works again. I've upgraded my computer. But I also want tonuse a different drive. The original drive was mac formatted. Now i need tonuse an exfat drive.
