File Sync - automatic

ryguy · 12-15-2004, 12:24 AM

Well there are probably 100 threads out there on this...however I wanted to post this as I have not been able to come across something I am happy with.

I have been using Windows Offline Files for a number of months now, i find it is very slow and cumbersome.

What I would like:

App will monitor network connections. When a connection becomes available, it will ping the predefined host. If that host is available it then attempts to copy/upate its library. I am looking for something fast and efficient. This means it should be able to pick up where it left off last time as well as verify files.

What do you guys think?

I like automation...I really don't want to have to click sync

Anything like this available? If not, anyone interested in developing?

FrodoPlayer can do this. Just set up the sync to be timed for every few minutes.

Well, I know that iG has canadian maps. From looking at the program, it says that it covers British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatewan, Ontario, and Quebec. And iGudiance was meant for incar navigation
