Mobile Account sync keeps restoring deleted files

I have set up a macbook on Active Directory, and set it to use mobile accounts. Whenever I make a file on the macbook, it syncs itself to the user's network folder as it should, however if I delete a file from the mac, on the next sync it comes back because for some reason it doesn't sync the deletion to the network folder.

Does anyone have any ideas? Mobile accounts fairly useless if you can't delete files!

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

I too have this problem and haven't found an answer yet. Incredibly frustrating as it should be syncing both ways based on dates/times but clearly isn't.

I also have this problem!

Before upgrading iso 10.1.1 it was only happening just after upgrading iso. But now it's just keep reappearing randomly.

I don't know if it's because I always have tried to resync the photos whenever it happens, now when it happens, I have like 20 extra folders. Really frustrating indeed!
