I have the Atrix 4G and recently got the Atrix 2. I used Motorola Media Link software to sync Atrix4G with my PC and to make backups.
I tried using this to sync up the Atrix 2, but it doesn't work as well as it works with my Atrix 4G.
Just wanted to see what you guys use to sync up this phone?
Thanks,

I had to reboot my phone after installing Motocast on my PC, once I did that, it recognized it.
I don't use anything. Google has all my calendars and contacts and Amazon cloud has my music.

Thanks guys!.
I use Google for my contacts/calendar/music etc. too.
But was curious as to why MotoCast wasn't working with my phone. It works with the Atrix 4G.

I have a Droid Incredible and just purchased a Viewsonic G Tablet that is/will be running Vegan. I have purchased a few apps that I am currently running on my Dinc, is there a way to share those apps with my G-Tab or do I need to buy them again? When I changed Android phones all my previous apps transfered over when I logged in with my gmail account, so I am wondering if there would be something simular with the G-Tab.

If you install a custom rom or the performance pack for stock then you will hace gapps installed. Enter the same gmail address that you are using on your Dinc and you will have access to everything. Your purchases are linked to your gmail address.
Would restoring an "APPS" backup from Titanum on teh phone to the Gtab work?

If I am moving to another android phone how do I back up/transfer all the data and apps? One of my friend has Atrix and we both were planning to switch phones for some time to see which one we really like.
Is there something like iTunes where I can sync up all my apps? I am not much worried about data (songs, photos etc.,) but I bought a bunch of apps which I would like to transfer them from phone to phone.
Any help is appreciated.

As long as you google sync your apps should load on that phone.

Thank you for the reply. Can you please help me find where "google sync" is located on my phone? When I go to Menu->Accounts&Sync->Google, there is only option to sync my books, contacts, gmail and calender.
I am very new to Android so sorry if I sound naive.

If I remember correctly as long as you log into your google account it should sync all your apps that you've bought or downloaded from Market. I could be wrong, if so some one please correct me.

When you use a google account for the Market, it will remember apps you have downloaded. It does not however save settings, preferences, cached data, etc.
I ran Android on a Fuze for over a year before upgrading to the Inspire. When Google released web access to the Market, it allowed me to track which apps are installed to which phones. When I switched phones, i jumped on my PC and clicked all the apps from the Fuze I wanted on the Inspire and Google automatically downloaded them to the phone.
If you want the apps and data backed up, you may need a product like Titanium back-up. I used it on the Fuze but since that was rooted, not sure if it will work on the Inspire with stock ROM.
or, if you're taking your sd card with you, you can use an app like app installer by gregory house to back up all of your apk files. or titanium backup does the same thing.
the market always screws me somehow. I purchased apps when I first got it only to find that it didn't remember me buying when I rooted and put on a custom rom. Even using titanium, 99% of my apps restore but I have ran into a few that won't due to licensing. When I go to the market, no record of it at all. I missed how itunes and cydia remembered everything you had. Don't miss the iphone though! lol
I use titanium backup. Works quite well.
Is there a way to do this?
Specifically, a way to sync my pictures and videos to some sort of online storage as and when I take them, or at a preset interval.
Just now, my phone and laptop weren't playing nice and it wouldn't mount as USB. So, I disconnected from USB. Now, I find a bunch of pictures and videos and lord knows what else have just disappeared. I'd like to be able to have a constant back up of these things.
I think dropbox has this feature. You only get 2GB free, buy a very useful app.

I know Titanium Backup has a feature called 'Media Sync' that does just that, too.
Dropbox is great btw.

Dropbox will not do this by itself but, Titanium Backup Media Sync seems like it will use Dropbox to do it for me. Thanks!

i want to put music n phtos on the phone using the transformer and sync the callender between the 2 devices
I don't think Stevey Jobs will allow you to do that
Most likely won't find anything here, check Cydia, that's your best bet

You can sync calendars on both devices via google calendar. Beats iPhone sync as it is done via Wi Fi not iTunes. As for music, there are apps that say the sort of sync, but I have not been able to get any to work correctly.
I used to have a jailbroken iphone. I had an app called iFile that would let you manage files on the device itself or turn it into a web based file server. If you have your transformer and the iphone on the same wifi network, you can activate the file server on the phone then just open the phone's ip in the browser on the transformer, and upload files through the browser.
I am shifting from E72 to Atrix 2 and would like to migrate Contacts, SMSes, etc from old phone to new phone. How should I do that?

Ok, so i downloaded the correct 1.1 version.
But after connecting my E72 via cable, it is not being detected by Mobilego app..
If compatible with original phone. My back up root in play store works well with saving apps/data/contacts/etc to sd card and restoring them. I have used it many time when flashing new roms.
When I migrated to Android from my Nokia E51, I sync'd my contacts etc data to google account, and afterwards once android was setup, they got sync'd with my new phone automatically (see http://support.google.com/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=147951 for one way of doing it).
