My Dropbox as a perfect sync for Mac,PC and Mobile

Just wanted to share this. For those using Mac and PCs to sync their mobile device. This is a solution to sync files and folders you want to use in all three platforms. I use the Missing Sync on my Mac and also My Dropbox for synching files between my Mac and PC. Now to keep files synched on my mobile too I chose the My Dropbox folder as the folder to sync in Missing Sync. This way all three plaforms keep my files synched all the time. Maybe some of you are doing this... thought I would just share it.

Do you know any good free app to sync my PC Pocket and my PC. Because "Missing Sync" isn't.
Missing Synch is only for the Mac platform. For synching only PC you have the Active Synch from Microsoft, that should do the job.

Using BitPim to transfer your phonebook and contacts.

Is this possible? Even with Bluetooth?
Thanks
Nope, BitPM doesn't work with the Android OS.
Easiest method (the way I did it) is to export your contacts from BitPM to a .csv file and then import that into your gmail account (logged in to gmail on your computer with a web browser).
Your gmail will sync with your Android phone and all our contacts will come down.

How to SYNC internet bookmark with gmail/google

How to SYNC internet bookmark with gmail/google
Anybody knows how to do this ?
My idea is that I have some internet bookmarks on my device, and I want these automatically synched with my google/gmail account.
So if I flash my Flyer and make a full wipe , I want my internet bookmarks automatically uploaded into my Flyer just like my contacts would.
Any ideas or tips ?

The 2 ways that i have done this so far are either use opera browser for everything and use the sync on that (works ok actually) or use Dolphin browser and the dolphin bookmarks to sd app to sync from gmail account (not automatic).
You would of thought with it been Android and Google they would of made it like the Google Chrome browser so that everything is synced with your account.

Help to sync DCMI folder bit torrent sync app

I just installed bit torrent sync app on my phone (S5), laptop and desktop.
I want to sync my phone camera photos to other two devices. After I deleted phone photos, I don't need to automatically delete them on my PC's. I want to keep that photos in other locations. So how do I configure bit torrent sync app to do it? When I'm configuring sync app on my Galaxy s5 I can't see such a option.
Also are there any chance to link external SD card folders? Because my music's are in external SD.

[Q] Folder sync variant

Good Evening All,
I have recently moved from Android (Galaxy S3) to Windows 8.1 (Lumia 1020).
On my Android, I had an app set up to sync certain folders with my cloud account
Is there a Windows 8.1 alternative, that can do the same?
I have only found threads to sync windows mobile and windows PC, not with a cloud
Thanks in advance
Regards
Mohammede
If you have Dropbox you can try Cloudsix for Dropbox. it's free.
Being that you came from S3 you are probably on the Google ecosystem. In that cae try Cloud Manager it is (1.99 US)
It is suppose to work with multiple cloud storage sites.
app called - google drive on WP
I use this as I have a google drive account to sync device and computer folders.
Also there is cloud file explorer it will work with a wide list of cloud storage services.

Hey QNC,
Thanks for the reply.
I'll have a look at Cloud Manager later on
What I meant is on my S3, I use foldersync to sync certain folders (eg, Folders "2154", "2157" and 2190" on my Ext SD) with my Box cloud.
I choose certain folders to be synced at certain times of the day, I cannot see that option on Cloudsix for Dropbox.
Are there any other apps for Windows Phone 8.1 that can do the same?
Thanks in advance

Understood, I used folder sync as well with my google drive storage. It was a very handy application.
I have not found one on windows phone that will do the same thing yet.
I have had to use the G drive app and manually sync.
