Why can't I use charging cord to sync, as with uploading iPhoto from iPad into OS?<div><p>Hi There,</p>
<p>You can sync Mental Case for Mac OS X with an iPhone, iPod
touch, or iPad running Mental Case. The sync is not via USB, like
iTunes, but goes over a Wi-Fi (Airport) network.</p>
<p>In order to sync, the Mac and iOS device must be on the same
network, and same subnet. If you use a home network, usually this
will be the case, but if you are in a cafe, school, college, or
business environment, there is a good chance that the two will not
be on the same subnet, and will not see each other as a result. In
this situation, you could try to setup a computer-to-computer
network to do the sync.<br>
If you have a firewall, like Little Snitch, you will probably need
to turn it off during syncing.</p>
<p>To sync with an iOS device over Wi-Fi:</p>
<ol>
<li>In Mental Case on the iOS device, go to the Sharing tab and
choose Start Sync under the Sync with Mac section.<br></li>
<li>Look in the source list on the left of the main window in
Mental Case for Mac. There should be a Devices section. Select the
device.<br></li>
<li>Put a check next to any cases you wish to sync to the iOS
device.<br></li>
<li>If you want new notes from the iOS device copied to the Mac,
check the Copy new notes and stacks to my Mac option.<br></li>
<li>To have notes on your Mac deleted if they have been deleted on
the iOS device, check the Delete notes and stacks that I deleted
from my iOS device option.<br></li>
<li>To have notes that were updated on your iOS device also updated
on your Mac, check the Update notes that were edited on my iOS
device option.<br></li>
<li>Press Sync.<br></li>
<li>You will get a warning dialog. Read it. Only press Continue if
you realize that all data on your iOS will be removed and
replaced.<br></li>
<li>Wait for the sync to complete.<br></li>
<li>Press OK when the sync completes.</li>
</ol>
<p>To setup a computer-to-computer network for syncing:</p>
<ol>
<li>On your Mac, go to the Airport status item in the Menu bar on
the right.<br></li>
<li>Choose Create Network€.<br></li>
<li>Enter a name for the network, and press Create.<br></li>
<li>On your iOS device, go into the Settings app, and choose Wi-Fi.
Select your new network from the list.<br></li>
<li>Once connected, launch Mental Case on the iOS device, and
continue the sync as above.</li>
</ol>
