Jake,

Synch will only tell the mount where you are pointing.

There are two things you need to do

1) Choose and slew to a target and then.
2) Run plate solving with the Slew to Target option.

When you do this it will iterate as many times as required until it is within your configured accuracy - I use 30 arc seconds,
