| When you first add Clouds a cache is created to enable quick access to your files. No files are moved. They stay on your Clouds. This cache is merely information about files ie. filename, datestamp, size etc. and enables you to view your data without SME continually asking the remote Cloud Server for the file list. This can be a very timely optimization particularly where large file lists are in place. The default mode is cached mode.\\ \\ You can choose to exit cached mode and work in real-time mode, which may be slower. You can activate real time mode from the DashBoard.\\ \\ To get latest view of your cloud storage files when operating cached mode simply click **//Refresh//** from the menu bar on the web File Manager and choose **//Cloud Refresh//**.\\ \\ **Apps refresh Options:**\\ \\ **Mobile:** Click on the 'Cloud Providers' menu option. Select the Storage Provider you wish to refresh and either click the Sync icon (iPhone/iPad) or choose to "sync" from the menu (Android and BlackBerry). If you are in the Cloud Files view in the App you can also just click on a Folder action and choose to refresh which will update that directory.\\ \\ **Windows App Suite: ** From the Cloud Dashboard click "Cloud Providers", select the cloud you wish to sync and click the "Sync now" button.\\ \\ **4. Mac App Suite:** Choose to "**//Refresh Drive View//**" from the Virtual Drive options in the taskbar.\\ \\ | When you first add a file store a cache is created to enable quick access to your files.
