This happens when editing a reference in either the desktop or Web libraries during the synchronization, and Endnote does not know which one to keep. If a conflict occurs, the term Sync Conflict will appear in the desktop Groups panel. The merged group can then be moved into the proper group set. The original group will be empty and can be deleted. After the sync, select the appropriate group in the Unfiled group set and move the references from the desktop group to here. If the group in Web has sharing options, leave them on.
Groups that appear in both locations can be merged. It is important that groups in both your desktop and Web libraries do not have the same name to avoid confusion once the sync is complete.Groups in Endnote Basic will sync to your desktop library and appear in the Unfiled group set. Custom groups, including file attachments, will sync to Endnote Basic but group sets, smart groups, and combination groups will not.This may result in duplicates if references are in both your desktop and online libraries - these can be removed later. For the first synchronization, EndNote copies all references in each library to the other. Depending on how large the library is, the synchronization may take some time.Select Sync from the Library menu (EndNote 20).It is highly recommended that you do so, in case problems occur with the synchronization. The first time you synchronize Endnote and Endnote Basic you will be asked if you want to create a compressed copy of your library as backup. Once you have created an Endnote Basic account you can easily synchronize it with the Endnote desktop library installed on your computer.
