So i'm looking for an app that will automatically sync a folder on my tablet with a folder on my PC whenever I log into a wireless network. I don't want to use the cloud. My thought is to remote into my home PC while at work, drop files/apps into a shared folder on my local machine then when i get home from work and my tablet is within wifi range it will automatically sync the folder on my pc to my tablet. Any suggestions?
Folder Sync by Tacit Dynamics is awesome. There's a free version you can try out. It's so powerful and versatile that I paid for it.

Hello all,
I would like to (automatically) sync particular folders on my Desire's SD card with folders on Flyer's SD card (music,videos,e-books...).
Using WiFi, of course. My upload speed to Internet is really slow, so I would like to avoid any cloud solutions like Dropbox. From device to device, 2 way sync. Any app recommendation?
Thanks in advance!

There is an app called PCFileSync that does exactly this, though you will need to have a folder somewhere on the network, that will sync your devices. Or perhaps have on of the devices running a supported file server

Managed to make it works using PCFilesync on Desire and FTP server app on Flyer.
Pcfilesync is a little bit buggy... Need better solution than that...

Hello everyone. I wanted to know if anyone knows of any apps or PC desktop programs that will allow me to automatically back up my photos (and other folders if possible) to my desktop. Im really looking for something that will only back up new photos and not all photos. It would be nice if the app or program could do it wireless, but Im willing to connect my USB cable to my PC once a week or so just to back up photos.
If anyone has a recommendation that would be great.
Thanks.
The perfect solution that i use is an app called dropsync... Works perfectly and syncs the folders i selected with Dropbox which is synced with my pc.

You could get a Google+ acct and use the instant upload. It auto uploads new photos on the fly.

Hey guys,
Can anyone recommend a good app to sync my photo's to specific folders on my iMac? Right now I am using Dropbox and I am manually dragging the photos into the folders. I also use Picasa so I can view the folders that are on my Mac on my phone but I need to have a good data connection and they load slowly.
Ideally I would love to be able to organize the photo's on my phone......for example move a photo from "Camera Shots" to a folder I created...then manually sync over WiFi when I get home at the end of the day and have the folders on my phone and Mac be identical once and for all.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance
AirSync by double twist? Anyone have experience with this?

Thanks! That good to know because I just started using iSyncr to sync with my iTunes. This would kill two birds with one stone.
Do you know if I can choose to have it sync photo's to specific folders that already exist on my Mac?

Not sure about specific folders. Drop sync pro is another option for specific folders. Not sure if they got a Mac client tho, if they do that's what you need

I'm looking for an app that would allow me to 2-way sync a picture folder on my phone and tablet over wifi. Does such an app exist? Everything I've seen in the Play Store sync device to PC but I havent seen anything that syncs device to device.
Theoretically, Dropbox can do it.

How?
If you have the dropbox app on both it will sync your selected folder(s) to their server and also to any device with your account and anyone else with whom you have shared a folder.

So youre saying I can choose a folder on my phones internal storage and drop box will mirror any changes to that folder on the internal storage of my tablet?
Im looking for an app that can do scheduled/automatic backups of files or specifically contacts, sms and photos to a network pc when I'm at home. Don't mind running a service for the sync as long as it's for windows.
Preferably one that is free so I can test it first.
Foldersync works great
