Indexes not synching

I have a Zotero library with 18,082 items in it. I use Zotero online storage (unlimited) to sync the my library for both my Macbook and my iMac.

The library items themselves seem to be synching--at least, there are the same number of items in each library. And the files seem to be synching--or at least, the storage folder for each is the same size.

What doesn't appear to be synching are the indexes. When I look on my iMac in Zotero-->Preferences-->Advanced, I see this:
Indexed: 9329
Partial: 440
Unindexed: 1069

When I look on my Macbook, I see this:
Indexed: 7440
Partial: 289
Unindexed: 3111

Should my libraries have the same number of files indexed? Doesn't the index sync when the libraries and files sync?

I have tried to Rebuild the Index for each library, only indexing unindexing items. (When I have tried to Rebuild the Index for each library, I have the same settings for the maximum number of characters to index per file.)

But I still thought the number of items indexed would be the same, since this info would be shared when I synced each library.

Does anyone have assistance?
