sync problem

I keep my on files on a usb stick.

I normally work offline and when i am done at the end of the day i plug the
usb stick and sync eveything.
Hence i plug in a press the sync button on the toolbar.

I used to do that every day.

Now, the sync button is dimmed and i cannot press it.
when hover on it it says on is working offline.

However, when i plug in on and open it, the sync is automatically done.

The problem is that I cannot press the button anymore because it is not
active.

whats the problem?

Does the sync otherwise work automatically when the USB stick is inserted?

What is the setting of File | Sync | Work Offline? Is that checked?

As I already mentioned, yes it does.
What is the setting of File | Sync | Work Offline? Is that checked?

It is not working offline.

If it is just the icon that's broken, but sync works fine otherwise, try
resetting the standard toolbar. To do so, click the dropdown arrow at
the end of a toolbar, select "add/remove buttons", select the standard
toolbar, and click "reset toolbar" at the bottom.
This bug tends to occur when you move around the sync icon when
customizing toolbars, so if you avoid touching it during toolbar
customization, you should be able to avoid it.
