Bug Description

My issue is similar to the one reported in bug #375732, but there the reports talks about a general problem in sync, while in my case if I add a file via nautilus it _is_ shown via web: the problem is the converse.

I added a .pdf file via web, and it doesn't show up in nautilus. I tried reloading several times both the web and nautilus. I also tried adding a new file via nautilus, and _this_ does show in the web client.

It's reproducible, in the sense that it's still happening. If asked by a developer, I can share the folder to check it/the file.

Finally (after something like 5 minutes, and after I had moved away the other files in the folder), the file has appeared in nautilus. I deleted it and reuploaded via web, and again it's not appearing. I uploaded another file and that doesn't appear too.

Apparently "moving some files" is essential to refresh things, since in this moment I have a "My Files" folder which, after several hours, still doesn't show that file (refreshing is useless).

Notice that instead, on another computer, I just installed ubuntuone and the file shows up.

Thank you for the bug report Pietro. This is a known issue, specifically that file changes in the web UI are not automatically synced in the client.
