Abstract
A client device displays a content item in a window associated with a process on the device. A client application monitors the process for the content item and determines whether the content item is synchronized with a client device or content management system. When the content item is not synchronized, a synchronization interface is displayed to permit a user to request synchronizing the content item. When the user requests synchronization, the content item is moved to a shared folder synchronized with the content management system or client device.
