I've heard of this happening on the XBOX, but it's pretty rare on PC. You might verify:

1. PC2 has access to the internet (i.e. not being blocked by your Windows Firewall)
2. You have Cloud Saves enabled for PC2 in Steam

Time Trial ghosts and the shared setups that come with them haven't worked for a couple months now for me, giving that same error. Leaderboards still work you can't examine the entries. I assumed a server or connection somewhere got shut down because of end-of-support. Or maybe just something that got broken by a steam/windows update that they can't fix because they don't touch the game anymore - like not being able to play without an internet connection without it hanging when exiting a session(unless that's just me).

If there is a fix that would be nice -- I figured it was just broken for good. I just checked and apparently cloud saves were disabled for my game... I'll see if that helps though that seems a little odd.

That is possible. It's not a feature I've ever used so it's possible I have the same issue.

The Discord Channel would be the best place to validate:

I have enabled both... :(

Well, I re-enabled my cloud saves. I still get the "could not sync profile" error, but I was able to add the ghost and download the setup using the "add ghost" button. I had tried to do this before but it's not something I use very often either so it's possible I did something different this time. Will see if turning it off-and-on changes anything about it in the future.

So it may be the OP's problem is something different.

I have always had the "Could Not Sync..." error. The method that has worked for me is the Add Ghost button provided there is a Ghost and Setup available and I am on Vehicle not Class. I have posted thousands of PC TT setup screenshots for console users.

Same here. Can't watch profiles but can download ghosts.

Unfortunately, I've always had this issue, as well as every person I know that plays the game. Something seems fundamentally broken with the Driver Network and the devs have no interest in fixing it.

Can use ghosts, but can't copy setups or view driver profiles. Very lame considering 99% of my time in the game is spent in MP

I don't know about "always". The title was release in 2017 and development ended in 2018. This is not something that existed during that time. It's more likely some of the services were shut down due to the age of the title.
