1.5  Downloading and Installing the Desktop Software

The  CaddieSync™  desktop  software  is  a  simple  program  that  enables  communication  between  your 
SkyCaddie and an online SkyCaddie account that you will need to freely setup at www.skygolf.com. You 
will use CaddieSync to activate and register your SkyCaddie, purchase an optional Membership Plan, 
renew an annual Membership Plan, access and download SkyGolf’s growing list of SkyCourses and more. 
CaddieSync offers a Sync feature for automatic login to your online account.

To install the latest version of CaddieSync onto your computer:

1.  Using a computer with Internet connection, launch a web browser and type the following address in 

the address field: 

http://www.skygolf.com/caddiesync/start

2.  In the right column, select the type of computer you own (PC or Mac) and the SkyCaddie model(s) 

you own, then click on “Download CaddieSync” (Fig. 3).

IMPORTANT!

If your computer is protected by a 

firewall, it may need to be set up 

to allow our SkyCaddie software 

programs to access the web. If 

your firewall software displays 

any warning messages during the 

activation process, simply indicate 

that you wish to allow access.

3.  Should a security pop-up window appears in your web browser, please allow the download to proceed. 

Choose “Run” in the Download dialog window if you want to have CaddieSync to automatically begin 
the installation process after downloading.

4.  Once CaddieSync has successfully installed, a SkyCaddie icon will be placed 

on your computer’s desktop. This will allow you to easily launch the program 
anytime you need to download courses or manage your account.

1.6  Activating and Registering Your SkyCaddie

Within 30 days of purchase, you must register your SkyCaddie online. 
Registration is free, and it will allow you to activate the standard manu-
facturer’s  warranty  and  associate  your  SkyCaddie’s  Electronic  Serial 
Number (ESN) to your contact information for support purposes. Your 
registration information is held in the strictest confidence at SkyGolf. 
We do not sell or share our users’ information to anyone outside of our 
organization without their consent.

To register your SkyCaddie:

1.  Launch CaddieSync on your computer.

2.  Click on the “Activate a New SkyCaddie” button on the CaddieSync 

welcome page (Fig. 4).

3.  Following the Get Connected setup assistant to register and activate 

your SkyCaddie. If you did not purchase your SkyCaddie online and 
have never had a SkyGolf website account, you will be able to setup 
a free online website account during this process. You will also have 
the option to choose an annual Membership Plan that best serves 
the needs of your game.

Note 

If you have owned or used a 

SkyCaddie in the past, the 

CaddieSync desktop software has 

replaced the SkyCaddie Desktop 

program that formerly handled 

management of your SkyCaddie.

IMPORTANT!

CaddieSync will install a 

SkyCaddie icon on your

access to the program anytime 

you need to download courses or 

manage your account.
