Sync projects between 2 computers

I'm using Sonar8.5 with Wn7 on my desktop and 8.5 with XP-Pro on my laptop.  The 'main' projects are stored on the desktop (per project filing).  On my laptop I connect to the PC and "MAKE AVAILABLE OFFLINE".  After editing on the laptop on location and syncing with the PC most things work OK however I occasionally get 'VST instrument not available' (TruePianos) or 'can't find library' (EWQLSO Goldxp or Battery 3) errors.  Is it a path issue?  Everything on my laptop is C:/ and H:/ on my PC.  Any fix?

    I could never get the "make directory offline" functions to work properly. Try to use Sync Toy (Free utility from Microsoft) or something similar. This method requires that all plugins have to be installed on both the PC and the laptop, but it works much better IMO.

    I'm not sure if FX Teleport is what I need.  I have the same vst's on both PCs.  I'll look at Sync Toy but "Make available offline" works for me in every other way.
