Question asked on Aug 2, 2013
I'm having some problems with my Skydrive on my Macbook Air (2011 model) being stuck on Scanning Files... The backups have seemed slow. I have moved a sizable amount of files into my Skydrive (24 GB at this point), so I fear that I may have corrupted something.

I've tried the trick of going into my Library and removing the .dat file from the Skydrive settings and restarting Skydrive, and I have reinstalled Skydrive a couple of times. I'm wondering if some permissions may be a factor. I hope I don't have to clear everything out of my Skydrive and start again (that would murder my bandwidth). What do you suggest I do?
