   Suppose I have a file abc.pdf in folder which was downloaded by syncdocs.When I start syncdocs again it downloads the same file again. and replace the original.

   So that means if I have 500 files. Everytime I star sync docs it downloads all 500 files.

   Please suggest,

   Has the content of the file changed? If the content is new, then the newer file will be downloaded.

   Another possibility might be that your file cache got corrupted during the Google outage two weeks ago.
   You can try resetting the file cache and preferences. Do this by:
   1. clicking Syncdocs Preferences
   2. On the "Advanced" tab, click on "Default Settings". This will let you reset file cache values.

   I tried it. It started from scratch in a new folder. I downloaded 10 files and then paused it. I started it again and its downloading the same 10 files again and rest of the files. Just fyi... I am using with dropbox. Please suggest.

   You could check that you PC clock is on the right time.

   It could also be that Dropbox is updating the files too. See these posts on getting Dropbox and Syncdocs to work well together:
