    How do you get the option to sync data?


    So, I’ve played Don’t Starve Together on two different consoles with one account, and I closed the game without saving on one console by accident. When I tried logging in on the first console, it asked me to sync data, one being newer and the other older.
    They had the same dates, so I picked the newer one, thinking it’d have my saved data. All of my worlds disappeared, and I tried loading them on the second console, and it gave me the option to choose again, and it worked when I chose older, but didn’t work
    when I was logged in on my first one.

    I tried logging out on the second one and it gave me the option to choose saved data again on the first one, and I chose the wrong one on accident. I don’t know what to do to get the option to use my old data and restore my worlds. In both consoles now,
    the worlds are gone.

    :)

    How do I re-sync data

    After playing a game at my other half's house, I went to sync the saved data on my own console. I accidentally hit used local data (the older save). As soon as I realised I hit cancel. But this did not give me the option to sync again.

    How do I get to sync that cloud data again?

    WP8 Does not sync with xbox or surface

    SirGrant618.. Sync meaning cloud syncing of playlists. Sync is so ubiquitous these days... sorry for not being specific. I get that the music would not sync to the phone... but lists should, and further should allow you the option to download or stream
    like they do between the Surface and Xbox.

    How do you get the option to sync data?

    Hi, if you go to "manage games & add-ons" then find the saves for it on your console try deleting it. This will remove any saved data from your console for that game and cause it to sync. Be careful not to delete from everywhere as you will be unable to
    recover anything deleted.

    Hope this helped as it worked for me.

    Other console taking to long to sync

    Hi Bombarder777,

    Sorry you're having issues getting your game data to sync. I would suggest you go to the last console you played Minecraft on that's pending a sync. Open the game, and then allow it to sync data. After that exit the game. Then go to your other console
    and see if the data syncs correctly. if it does not then I would suggest trying a hard reset on the console that is having issues syncing your minecraft data. To do this, with the console on, hold the power button down for 5-10 seconds until it quickly shuts
    off. Then turn it back on, and follow the previous steps to open and sync data.

    If you still cannot sync after that, you have an option to use the latest save from your console you're trying to open Minecraft on. If you cannot get it to sync at all, then I would suggest using the last save from that console. NOTE: You will lose some
    saved data by doing this.

    Ghosts broken POST UPDATE

    I have the dreaded CANT SYNC DATA TO THE CLOUD MESSAGE (-80099324). Something happened after I DL the COD GHOST DLC! I can not get online unless I sync data which is not happening, and have to option out to offline play. Now after I do this for about a minute
    of continuous button spamming to sync data I just click offline and ghost finally loads to multiplayer. It also happens during madden. I can get online in mp but have to select offline play first.

    .

    .

    Also what the hell! The one never informs you you are DL the dlc until you exit out the game and look it up in another """"APP"""". Dam app this, app that. What the hell happened to just options or simplicity.

    How do I delete asphalt 9

    Choosing the option will only delete the saved data locally. Were you able to let the game sync by launching the game before checking the deletion of saved data option?

    Game save data for Starfield on Cloud gaming

    To start, I would recommend checking if your Xbox Live account is properly synced with your game save data. You can do this by going to the "Settings" menu on your Xbox console, selecting "System," and then "Storage." From there, you can check if your game save data is properly synced with your Xbox Live account.

    If your game save data is not properly synced, you can try manually syncing it by going to the "Manage Game & Add-ons" option for Starfield and selecting "Saved Data." From there, you can select "Sync Now" to manually sync your game save data with your Xbox Live account.

    Kind regards,

    Mae Sev.

    There is no "Sync Now" option. At least not on my xbox.

    It would be great if there was a fix for this issue as i have lost almost 50 hours progress and Sync issues still persist. For the record I have 1gb Internet speed with 0 issues. As suggested elsewhere I check my network connection and xbox reports all is good and no problems with any other game nor cloud gaming.
