Syncing to new device does not update Saved Searches
I recently installed Zotero on my PC after having run it on my Mac successfully for some time. In my library I had a saved search that was working perfectly, but when my library synchronised down to my PC, whilst the Saved Search item came down, the contents of the search was not updated. If I then added another entry to my library that matched the criteria of he search it was put in correctly.
Is there any fix for this or have I done something wrong?
Thanks

I manually made a duplicate Saved Search with the same criteria and it populated fine with all the documents, so something is definitely up. There's a bug there.
First, you need to make sure you actually have "Sync full-text content" enabled in the Sync pane of the preferences. And then you need to wait for the indexing to happen in the background. That takes place while your computer is idle, so if you've been using it actively or it's been asleep, that might not yet have happened.
Yes, Sync Full Text Content is on in preferences
Yes the conditions are all Attachment Content
No Computer didn't sleep overnight
Re the second point, should I be able to grab any sequence of words in the PDF content and search using Everything and expect it to appear? If so, that isn't working. If I choose a single word (That I can't see in any meta data) it doesn't appear either but some other results do. Note, this is a PDF document.
NOTE: I am on Windows at the moment and my original machine is on Mac (Maybe there's a crossplatform issue or something).
As an aside, when I searched in the bar and got some results (But not the one I was looking for) I noticed some are greyed out. What does this mean?
It is normal for indexing to be queued for this long?
