Hi, I use TeamDrive (http://www.teamdrive.net) to synchronize my documents on two computers. This includes Mathematica files. I did not encounter any problems with "normal" notebooks so far but stylesheets do not work: I created a stylesheet with Mathematica (7.0.1) and saved it in my TeamDrive folder. Afterwards I created a symbolic link (Linux on both machines) in $UserBaseDir/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/Stylesheets to the TeamDrive folder. This works perfectly as long as I am working with this single machine. The stylesheet is synchronized with my other PC via TeamDrive. On this second machine I also created a symbolic link and afterwards the stylesheet occured in the Format menu. When I select this stylesheet on the second machine I get a Mathematica error: "The file you are opening appears to have been edited outside of Mathematica.[...]" Also the notebook style does not change. It stays default style. I also tried this with the machines vice versa with the same result: The stylesheet only works on the machine on which it has been created. Are there any ideas for a workaround or how to solve this? Also I would like to know if it is possible to create a valid stylesheet from the corrupted ones. I can open them as ascii/text files in Mathematica but nothing changes when I save them again. Thanks in advance Nils Blum-Oeste
