Sync via Shared Network Folder

Set up the synchronization via Local Network using a Shared Network Folder with these steps:

 

  1. "Do you have a Sync2 Synchronization ID?". Choose "I don't have a Sync2 Synchronization ID" and click "Next >".

  2. "Select Connection and Location Type". Choose "Network" from the list of synchronization types and click "Next >".

  3. "Select Shared Network Location". Choose the location by clicking the "Browse…" button and selecting a preferred location from the Browse for network folder dialog. Click "Next >".

  4. "Synchronization Folder Confirmation". Sync2 will analyze the chosen location/address for existing synchronization data. If synchronization data is found, the wizard automatically suggests synchronizing that data with this computer. If no synchronization data is found, a new folder is suggested. Click "Next >", and skip to step 6.
    If you want to choose the synchronization data folder manually, check the "I want to choose the profile folder manually" checkbox and click "Next >".

  5. "Select Synchronization Folder". In this advanced step select the synchronization data profile from the list (if any), or choose to create a new profile. You can change the name of the profile here. Click "Next >".

  6. "General Settings Configured". The default Outlook folders (Calendar, Contacts, Inbox, Journal, Notes, Sent Items, Tasks) are suggested with some pre-defined synchronization filters. Click "Finish" and proceed to step 9.
    Check the "Configure advanced synchronization settings" checkbox if you need to choose the folder for synchronization data to be stored, select custom Outlook folders and/or adjust synchronization filters for each folder. Click "Next >".

  7. "Folders and Synchronization Filters". Select the folders you want to synchronize, and edit synchronization filters for each folder. Click "Next >".

  8. Click "Finish" in the "Congratulations" step, to save the synchronization settings and start synchronization.

  9. A dialog with instructions on how to configure synchronization on other computer(s) will appear. If Synchronization ID is provided, write it down, print it or send it via e-mail with the help of the action buttons in this dialog. This Synchronization ID may be used on other computers to simplify the synchronization configuration there.
