About synchronization and cloning
Synchronization and cloning help you quickly match the contents of a folder on
the host computer with a folder on the remote computer. However, they perform
this function differently. Synchronization involves a two-way comparison between
two folders. Files are added to each folder to make the contents of each folder
match. No files are deleted. Cloning involves a one-way comparison between two
folders. Files are added or removed from one folder to match the contents of the
other folder.
Synchronizing folders
You can synchronize folders to ensure that the host and remote computers each
have copies of the most recent files. If one folder contains a file that the other
folder does not have, the missing file is added to the other folder. If both folders
contain a file with the same name, the older version is replaced by the newer
version.
Before you synchronize folders, you might want to compare folders to identify
and delete any obsolete files.
See “Comparing folders” on page 159.
To synchronize folders
1
In the File Transfer window, select the folder on your computer that you want
to synchronize with a folder on the other computer.
2
Select the folder on the other computer with which you want to synchronize.
3
On the left navigation bar, under File Transfer, click Synchronize.
4 In the confirmation dialog box, click Yes.
5
When the operation finishes, in the File Transfer Status dialog box, click OK.
Synchronizing folders by file type
You can limit the synchronization between folders to certain file types. For
example, you can synchronize only the *.doc files in the folder to ensure that the
host and remote computers each have copies of the most recent files. During the
synchronization, pcAnywhere ignores other file types that might be included in
the folders.
