[sync-services-developers] Sync Services deleting all data unexpectedly.

[Martin Redington]

Has anyone else seen Sync Services delete all their data unexpectedly?

I've had three user reports of this now - the symptoms seem to be that
one machine suddenly decides that it doesn't need its data any more,
and then propagates the deletes via sync services to other sync
clients, but I'm still collecting more detailed diagnostics to send to
Apple.

I've heard some anecdotal reports of data loss when people moved to
Tiger, but these were all end-user reports IIRC.

I always sync in default (fast sync) mode, so its hard to see how all
of the data could get trashed ...

   cheers,
