I don't remember what all I tried after I first posted, but unselect - select might have been one of them. I know I had tried that prior to my post. Whatever it was I tried, it seemed to work. This morning when I booted up, it worked.
I'm on my main computer at present so I can't give exact answer to app version, but since it's a new computer and new installation, it would be current. When I used the travel computer this morning, it said "Your files are up to date".

In any case, it seems to be working ok now. I'll try to come back in a week and advise if it continues to work.

It continues to work, so I can say this is solved. Thanks for your reply about things to do.
