If by 'syncing' you mean 'copying', there's always the document access UI in iTunes for copying files in and out of your iOS app's Documents directory, although it's kind of awkward to use. If you really mean 'syncing', then Dropbox is probably your best bet. Just be aware that its notion of syncing is pretty coarse-grained — it's going to update the entire file at once, and it won't resolve conflicts in the file. So if one database row gets changed on one device, and another one on another device, Dropbox is just going to go 'duh' and give you two copies of the file, one with each change. Also, of course, every time you make a change, the entire file will have to be uploaded (and downloaded on the other devices) so this doesn't scale well. —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
