You have an error in "SupportPi" which prohibits all updates after this error. The errors comes from mapping Sketch002 to a wrong face, which comes from the topological naming problem.
Solution: Avoid mapping things to faces or any other generated geometry. Attaching to main planes is the best you can do. Attaching to sketches is ok.
