    Hey!
    Just got collaborate going, and linked up a project and everything, and I'm following the documentation.
    For whatever reason, clicking the "[^]Collab" button will open the drop-down, but then clicking the "Start Now!" button does nothing? Is there something I'm missing? I've tried resetting Unity already and it didn't make a difference.
    Thanks!

    I just got that, too. Try opening the services window. crtl+0 or pick services from the window menu.

    Hm, having the services panel open doesn't seem to change it at all?

    You may need to setup a project here: https://developer.cloud.unity3d.com
    Once you get that setup, you have to connect that project to collaborate here:

    Sorry if my info is incomplete or inaccurate. It is what it is.

    Yeah, I already have all that set up! It says my Unity project is already linked to the project on the cloud.

    General troubleshooting:
    -close Unity and open it again
    -log out and back in inside Unity
    -I'm not going to say restart your computer (it sounds too condescending)

    Good Luck.

    Hi @KaiClavier, so sorry you are having trouble. When you select "Start Now!" does the Collab Toolbar button change to having an update icon?

    There should be an initial Update (push) to the Server with your initial commit. :) Please let me know if you do not see this. Screen shots/gifs/video are always a very welcome sight!

    okay @KaiClavier , THAT is frustrating as ever. If you are able, could you please
    1) Run Unity from command line with the parameter
    2) Repeat the steps you've show here
    3) Submit a bug for me?
    If you can ping me the bug number back I'll take a look right away. Thank you so much for the gif!!

    Hello!

    Could you try a couple of things?

    First, delete this folder (while the editor is closed): /Users/Kai/Library/Unity/Packages

    Next, open the editor, and open a project which you've previously tried to enable collaborate on.

    I'm guessing that even though your project is ready to go on the servers, your client is having trouble holding on to/displaying that information - the above steps should help.

    Let us know how it goes!

    Alright - try this.

    Try clicking the Start now button again. When it gets stuck in that state (and changes to a blue arrow), go to Unity -> About Unity. With this new window in focus, type the word internal on your keyboard. A message that says "internal mode on" should display.

    Now, go to Window -> Collab Toolbar. This will let you open the toolbar in a dockable window. You should be able to right click on it and reload it. See if that helps!

    That was pretty cool, but it still doesn't change anything? Could it be possible some config leading up to this is wrong? Could my Unity account or online project config be interfering with this?
