| Once you have set up Sync the first time, your files will automatically sync back and forth when they are changed either on your computer or in OneDrive for Business. It sometimes takes a couple of minutes for this to happen. If you want the sync to happen faster, you can click on the Sync button in the web app. |
Method 1
You can start the sync wizard from the OneDrive for Business menu in your Windows notification area.
- Select the OneDrive for Business icon (which looks like a blue cloud) and then select Sync a new library.
- If you have yet to sync any SharePoint libraries to your computer, the Sync Library wizard automatically prompts you to sync your OneDrive for Business library and references its web address.
- If you have already synced at least one other library, the wizard prompts you to specify the address of the library you now want to sync. (this is not typical).
Method 2

This section assumes you are logged into OneDrive for Business in a web browser. |
...
Select Sync at the top of the page.
- At the prompt, click Sync now to open the SkyDrive Pro wizard.
The wizard automatically fills in the name and web address of your OneDrive for Business library. You can change these values if desired, but it is best to accept the default folder:
- Select Sync Now in the wizard to start syncing.
- You may be prompted for login information. You can click Show my files… in the wizard to open the synced OneDrive for Business library folder in Windows Explorer. The folder is listed in your Favorites with the name “OneDrive @ University at Albany - SUNY". In some cases, it may show as SkyDrive Pro as shown below.
