Sync Files on XP Desktop and Orbit - General Topics

Hi all,
there is another question regarding my orbit.
I have setup the "File Synchronization Settings"
When I connect the Orbit to the computer, it synchronize these files on both locations.
This function works great.
The only problem is that the folder location has been pre-set in the main memory.
I want to put all my documents in my micro-sd card, although I can copy the files to it, but it addes several more steps.
Is it possible to change this location to my micro-sd?
Thanks for looking.

SYNCHRONISING

How do I set up my XDA so that the synchronised files folder gets stored on another driver other than the C:\.
I have 2 hard drives on my machine and want it stored on the other one.
Thanks.
it will always sync with the dir you get in my documents
but on a pc you can always change the location of my documents
if you change that to your other disk activesync will sync with that
use tweakui to change the my documents location

synchronising with two folders instead of one?

Hi,
Is there anyway with WM5 / activesync 4.5 to syc two folders rather than just the 'my docs' folder? I seem to be able to add extra files from the desktop to sync, but not folders.
I effectivly want to constantly & automatically backup a small folder on my PC to my XDA, aswell as the usual my docs folder.
Thanks Anthony

A program called easy sync will work for you. I needed the same thing and found that this program works wonders. Not to difficult but not very easy either, but will sync any folder, file or whatever else you want in whatever folder you have on your device and computer. Hope this helps.
Here is the link:

EXCELLENT!
Great!
Looks perfect, I will never forget to keep those files backed up now, it will be done everytime I connect my PPC.
Perfect thanks

Syncing files in custom directories

I'd like to know if it's possible to use ActiveSync (or any other 3rd party add-on, for that matter) to sync files from any location on my host computer's hard drive onto my WM6 Professional device.
I've tried enabling 'Files' in the syncing menu in ActiveSync, but all that does is create a directory in my computer within 'My Documents' which I'm supposed to put the files which I want synced. I need something more than that -- I'd like the ability to say 'ok, I have file x on my computer in directory y... go sync that to my device in directory z'.
Check out http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=985 which does the job.

Newer versions are commercial but this one (last freeware one) will do the job flawlessly - it can sync data on SD card too.
Thanks guys!

How to sync files on the Polaris with network folder?

Hi
I have the following configuration:
1) Windows Vista Ultimate on a PC connected to a router
2) NAS (QNAP) where I store my important files connected to same router
3) HTC Polaris
What I would like to have is to syncronized the files on the Polaris with the files on the NAS. In Windows Mobile Device Center I can only syncronize to a folder located in the Vista PC.
The problem is that is always difficult to syncronize the files between NAS/VISTA PC/POLARIS all together
Is there a way to directly syncronize the files on the Polaris with the NAS (without having to setup an expensive exchange server)?

You'll have to use something like Easy Sync, or Mighty Sync. You'll also have to install CardExport to export your storage card (assuming thats where you store your files on your TC) so that it shows up as a usb drive under XP/Vista.

The files are not many and in the main storage.
Maybe a registry hack for "windows mobile device center" to choose a folder on a network drive? I'am sure is possible, how though?
With those tools I will not have problems with sync between 3 folders??? (the Polaris, the Vista PC, the network folder)

[Completed] Synchronize two folders on Android with all subfolders + files in them? Not PC-Cloud!

The question is about synchronizing two folders residing on Android phone itself.
I've spent hours experimenting with no success.
I found programs syncing two single folders but not syncing all sub folders and contents inside subfolders multiple layers deep.
Programs offer cloud and PC synchronization but what about simply two folders both inside the Android phone, with no internet or any other connection necessary?
The obvious goal being synchronizing removable SD Card folder content with internal SD card folder content.
I've tried Google Playstore search and I have a headache from hours of not being able to do a simple two folder sync using programs that claim they are sync programs - but they can't sync two folders with subfolders inside them. I don't want to sync with PC. I don't want to sync with the Cloud. Just simple two folder sync in Android.
