Details:
Lightroom 5.5 on Mac OS 10.9, both fully updated.
Hardware is an iMac with 32G ram and lots of CPU.
I've got 8 collections set to sync from Lightroom and some are syncing partially, some not at all.
On the desktop the status says "waiting for connection". I've seen in other forum posts that this may not be 100% true (ie: the label may not be an accurate representation of what's going on), but the end result is the images aren't syncing or updating.
I got frustrated with this last night and hit the 'delete all data' button and re-checked the collections (not sure if it matters, but most of the collections are of DNG files with (as far as I know), smart previews generated). The collections partially synced, but seemed to stall and fail.
Additional information:
I did have the PhotoSmith plugin enabled, but saw in another forum that this might cause conflicts, so I deleted all the publish collections and deleted the plugin completely and restarted, but no change.
I also have the Mosaic Archive (the new version) plugin installed and a few publish collections. Disabling the plugin didn't seem to make any change either.

Hey Guido. I did as you asked (stop LR, delete the sync.lrdata file, restart LR). The collections I had selected to sync were still checked (I did uncheck and re-check one of them to see if that would do anything), but the status bar still says "waiting for connection" and the same images that were synced to lr.adobe.com and on my iPhone are there, but no more.
Did you want me to click the 'delete all data' in the preferences before I stop/delete lightroom, or is deleting the sync.lrdata file doing that?
I don't know if it's related, but I looked in Console.app and there are constant messages (about 1 a second) saying 'bad sqlite return code: 1. Info: no such column: z"
Here's a screenshot:

Not sure if that helps at all.

Guido, I too man having LR mobile sync options. As well as getting the 'awaiting connection' message for weeks now, and sync not working, at least with 5.6 the sync to iPad works (though still awaiting connection shows). I can't locate the path you describe on my iMac (mavericks), so can't find the file to delete. I guess I should be grateful sync is working at last, but it would be nice to have the product working properly. I have a log I can send if that would help? Thank you.

Library is hidden by default on Mac in your version. In Finder click on Go and hold down the Option key and Library should appear in the list temporarily so you can locate the path that Guido references.
Thank you Rikk. I did know that, and was looking there, but just could not locate it... now I have! Appreciate your reply :)
