There are a few different reasons that a file might not get synced. Running at least one of the following commands on a path that's not syncing should give you the answer. I'll use the path A/bin/... for purposes of this example:

  • p4 opened A/bin/... -- do you have the file open? If so, your local file is protected from updates until you resolve, submit, or revert.
  • p4 have A/bin/... -- does the server think you already have the file? If so, it won't re-sync it. Use p4 clean to force your workspace back into a consistent state.
  • p4 where A/bin/... -- is the file part of your client view? If not, you may need to update your View (or, if this is a stream workspace, your stream's Paths).
  • p4 files A/bin/... -- does the file exist at all? Is it deleted? If it's deleted, maybe you want to sync an older revision?
  • p4 protects A/bin/... -- do you have access to the file? If not, talk to your admin.

    ...and if you haven't, turn on logging. It will provide you with a clue as to which one of these circumstances fits yoru case. – tkosinski Feb 22 '21 at 15:45
