Features include: · One-way and two-way synchronization: Copy the changed files from one folder to the other, or copy the files from each folder to the other. File conflict resolution according to the rules set by the user: Set the rules for synchronizing the folders in which one or both matching files have changed since the last synchronization. Synchronization scheduled by the user: Set the day and time to repeat a Synchronization Job automatically. Smart synchronization: If following a synchronization, you replace a file with its older version in one of the folders, PCsync will not simply replace it with the newer file version from the other folder. As you prepare the session, you can direct PCsync to automatically skip, copy the newer version, or to overwrite the file. You can also choose to resolve conflicts manually while the session is running. The Four Steps of Synchronization Note: If you set up a connection with a Mac and you desire to do a migration (copy) of files to the Mac, see the Migration Wizard section on page 12.
