[BB] After course copy, synchronize Safe Assignment

Blackboard users,
 
After copying a course site that has Safe Assignments, you should ALWAYS go to the new course > Control Panel > MyDropBox Suite (SafeAssignment), and click on the link to synchronize this new site. 
 
Even if the synchronization status message, when you get there, says that synchronization was successful, you NEED to synchronize it manually.  OK?
 
The synchronization process takes care of fixing the Safe Assignments so they point to your new site, rather than the old site.  If you don't do this there will be a number of problems that you and the students may encounter.
