Whew... I got a reply from Mike his thread goes like this:

The error 0xffffffe4 means that you have run out of disk space. You must
have been _very_ close to full before you installed the v1.02rc1 upgrade. If
you delete a few tracks you should find that synchronisation succeeds, at
which point you can move everything back out of unattached items.

Believe it or not - this is much better than the situation that used to
occur in previous versions of the software where it would be impossible for
the user to recover from the situation themselves.

He is right I had only about 15 or 20meg free on the disk before I upgraded. in the error condition emplode still reports 20 meg free. but Empeg did state in the release notes that they made changes to better handle full disks. So I will try Mike's suggestion tonite and re-post.
Thanks Mike!
