This attachment file:

RE DESKTOP_AND_PORTALS#4169 - Imperial_QA Same Maintenance event are appearing twice under Current and Planned Events and Maintenance History Tab on Event Board window.msg

Has a very long filename.

Sync uses the QC API which uses the TD80 temp folder to hold the attachment temporarily, then it copies it to the C:Program FilesHPHP ALM Synchronizertmp folder before sending it to the JIRA location.

Perhaps that filename + path is too long, or the C: drive is out of space. How much free space is on drive C:?

What happens if you rename the attachment to a simple very short name?

Go into QC project with IE, Download attachment from QC to local drive (on your laptop), rename it to a simple name (8.3) and re-attach to the same defect or to a NEW one and run sync to see if attachment goes across.
