This article discusses a Beta release of a Microsoft product. The information in this article is provided as-is and is subject to change without notice.
No formal product support is available from Microsoft for this Beta product. For information about how to obtain support for a Beta release, see the documentation that is included with the Beta product files, or check the Web location from which you downloaded the release.
SYMPTOMS
After you upgrade to Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows 2000, or Internet Explorer 5, the Manage Subscriptions option from Internet Explorer 4.x is no longer available on the Favorites menu. Additionally, the Subscription tab is missing in the properties of your subscribed favorites.
CAUSE
This behavior occurs because the Internet Explorer 4.x subscription feature is called Synchronize and is available on the Tools menu in Internet Explorer 5. Synchronization settings for individual favorites are available using the "Make available offline" or Synchronize commands on the menu that appears when you right-click a favorite, or from the Web Document, Schedule, or Download tabs that are available when you click Properties on the menu that appears when you right-click one of your offline (subscribed) favorites.
RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, use the appropriate procedure from the "Making pages available for offline viewing" topic in Internet Explorer Help. To view this Help topic, click Contents and Index on the Help menu in Internet Explorer, click the Contents tab, click Browsing the Web Offline, and then click Making pages available offline.
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
