I'm not sure what you mean by synced folders. And why would I want to sync them again and to what? Syncing has caused me nothing but grief. I don't want to sync.
More: If you empty the synced folders and then sync again, will that clear all of your data out of iCloud? (A similar procedure works on my iPhone 4.)
