Hi, I haven't used dropbox myself, but for the 1.x series, I used unison: http://www.mnemosyne-proj.org/help/advanced-features.php
2.0 has a built-in sync algorithm, so no need to mess with external programs anymore. Cheers, Peter > I have previously (http://groups.google.com/group/mnemosyne-proj-users/ > t/cf82fc683c1a647f) requested advise for optimal installation of > Mnemosyne on Dropbox. That may not be the root-cause of my probelms. > > 1. On two PC's I am fine; the .mnemosyne is automatically established > under C:\Documents and Settings\Henrik. (Why?
