Description

This cmdlet contains more than one parameter set. You may only use parameters from one parameter set, and you may not combine parameters from different parameter sets. For more information about how to use parameter sets, see Cmdlet Parameter Sets.

You must be a SharePoint Online administrator or Global Administrator to run the cmdlet.

Requires a valid Connect-SPOService context to identify the tenant. For information on how to connect to the tenant, see Connect-SPOService

The Set-SPOTenantSyncClientRestriction cmdlet is used to control a variety of tenant-wide administrative settings related to syncing files from OneDrive and SharePoint. You may use it to:

• Set restrictions on whether users can sync items to non-domain joined machines, control the list of allowed domains, and manage whether Mac clients (which do not support domain join) can sync.

• Prevents files with specific extensions from being synced.

• Controls whether users can continue to sync OneDrive for Business libraries with the old OneDrive for Business sync client.

Restrict non-domain joined machines from syncing

The Set-SPOTenantSyncClientRestriction cmdlet can be used to enable the feature for tenancy and set the domain GUIDs in the safe recipients list. When this feature is enabled it can take up to 24 hours for the change to take effect. However, any changes to the safe domains list are reflected within five minutes.

The Set-SPOTenantSyncClientRestriction cmdlet applies both to existing Microsoft OneDrive for Business sync client (Groove.exe) and the Microsoft OneDrive for Business Next Generation Sync Client (OneDrive.exe). OneDrive.exe is the new sync client that will sync both consumer and business accounts.

Important

The new OneDrive for Business Next Generation Sync Client lets you connect and sync files from your OneDrive for Business. You can add a work or school account to the new OneDrive for Business sync client and sync all your files in OneDrive to your computer. For more information, see Improve your OneDrive sync experience.

When the feature is enabled the following will occur:

• All OneDrive for Business Sync client requests originating from a domain that is not on the safe recipients list will be blocked.

• All Microsoft OneDrive Mac Sync client and Mac Beta client requests will not be blocked by default.

• Microsoft OneDrive mobile apps are not blocked when this feature is enabled.

• Regardless whether a computer is managed by a device management solution, a sync relationship will not be established unless they are joined to a domain in the Safe Recipient List.

• Any files that have been previously been synced down to your computer will not be deleted.

• When this feature is enabled, please be aware the following upload behavior:

  • New or existing files added to the client will still be uploaded to the server and will not be blocked.
  • Regardless if the computer is joined to a domain which is set in the Safe Recipient List.
  • Regardless if the computer is joined to a domain which is not set in the Safe Recipient List.
  • And for all non-domain joined computers.

• Microsoft OneDrive for Business sync client prior to version 15.0.4693.1000 will stop syncing existing libraries.

Important Dora la casa de dora.

In order to explicitly block Microsoft OneDrive client for Mac or OneDrive for Business Next Generation Sync Client on Mac OS X, please run the Set-SPOTenantSyncClientRestriction cmdlet with the BlockMacSync parameter set to true. For more information about the Next Generation Sync Client for Mac OS X, see Get started with the new OneDrive sync client on Mac OS X.

There is a known OneDrive for Business sync client issue where syncing is being blocked even if a computer is joined to a domain which is set in the Safe Recipient List. To resolve this behavior, obtain the 15.0.4719.1000 version or higher of the sync client, see May 12, 2015, update for OneDrive for Business.

I have just started organizing collections on my bottom-of-the-line Kindle (the Kindle 4?). Despite selecting 'annotations sync and backup' I'm not seeing these collections appear on my iPad and iPhone. I've spent 20 minutes reading through Amazon documentation and forum posts and I still can't figure out how to get my Kindle's collections in sync with my iPad.Is it possible to keep Kindle collections in sync across all devices that can access Kindle content?If yes, how?If only in limited ways or among some types of devices, what are the limitations and which devices? It sounds like the 'Import Collections' option is just what I need, but I cannot find it on my Kindle Paperwhite even when 'Cloud items' is selected. (2nd version of Paperwhite). I'm trying to make and sync my collections via my Kindle-for-Mac.

It's far easier than doing it on the Kindle itself which I have done once before. The Kindle help files online only teach me how to manage collections from my Kindle device, which is harder.

Did I miss something in your description (of Import Collections) that I should have done differently, or are you sure you didn't unintentionally leave something out– user5431 Oct 15 '15 at 12:56. I am assuming from the above comments that since I have a various devices (android, PC, Kindle) and source books from various places and formats that there is no way to sync them all in say the Kindle Cloud. I was trying to get everything in one place and it appeared that Kindle would keep my place in an ebook across the different devices but apparently that is incorrect. I have Calibre with over 1000 books in it but wanted to get them all sync'd but it appears that can't be done on the Kindle Cloud.

Appears that Amazon is trying to make it more difficult unless you purchase the content from t–Dec 10 '15 at 22:18. I am guessing you have already found Amazon's. If every book on your devices is from Amazon, then you can do some organizing at 'Your Account' 'Manage Your Device' 'Your Kindle Library' or by using the. If you have works from anyplace else, then the prospects get worse.I personally have some issues that require my books be in some kind of order that is not primary based on who I bought it from and when.

I was trying to keep track organized with an Excel book. I searched for solutions and read many articles & blogs, I strongly desired an Amazon/Kindle solution, the majority pointed to a single solution which I eventually adopted. Is that solution.The only disadvantage the Calibre has it is a bit more difficult to connect wirelessly to your collection. I won't go into all it's advantages but, essentially it is your own personal library, that you can organize and store you books on, regardless of where it comes from. My 1263 (current count) works are stored on Calibre, I download from Amazon, Smashword, Baen, Project Gutenberg, etc. Directly to Calibre (on my pc). Once a week or so, I sit down at the PC, remove some books from my Kindles, mark them as read on Calibre (tag 'read'), add some new books to the appropriate kindle ('paperwhite' for reading in bed, 'keyboard' for text to speech while commuting) and tag the books I am currently reading in Calibre by the device they are on.I believe there is at least one wireless solution for connecting your Kindle to your Calibre, but in the end I stuck with using the USB connection, as by the time I need to move some books around, I need a recharge, so i get a two for one deal (load and charge).

My own experience with this is that with Amazon you have a couple sets of collections. My iOS and android devices seem to share a set of collections that are automatically sync'ed across them.In contrast my kindle device and my (mac) desktop software don't share the same. However, from my kindle device if I look at my 'Cloud' items, then in the overall menu there is a 'Import collections' which lets me import collections from my desktop software. The desktop software has an 'import collections' command available from the 'add collection' menu in the ui, but I'm not sure where it imports from.I assume that at some point Amazon will merge all these.
