Use dropbox to sync Lyric Pad 3 to multiple devices was created by admin
This is pretty much the same process as described in
Dropbox as Auto-Backup System
except you link multiple tablets to the same dropbox account.
On Device No 1
On Subsequent devices
Repeat for additional devices.
On Device No 1
- Do a manual backup of your data - just in case (refer manual for instructions)
- Install Lyric Pad 3 and run it at least once
- Determine the location of your Lyric Pad 3 directory in your device's file system. Default is /Android/data/com.dna.lyricpad3/files/
- Open your dropbox account and create a LyricPad3 folder
- Download and install the app "DropSync" on your device from google play store. Only the free version is necessary but it is worth supporting the developer of DropSync as it is a good app
- Set up dropsync to sync from your device's /Android/data/com.dna.lyricpad3/files/ directory to the /LyricPad3/ folder in DropBox as a two way sync
- Set up the default sync options in dropsync
- Tell dropsync to sync.
- Check the LyricPad folder in dropbox. It should now contain a mirror of the LyricPad folder on your device.
On Subsequent devices
- Do a manual backup of your data - just in case (refer manual for instructions)
- Install Lyric Pad 3 and run it at least once
- Determine the location of your Lyric Pad 3 directory in your device's file system. Default is /Android/data/com.dna.lyricpad3/files/
- Download and install the app "DropSync" on your device from google play store. Only the free version is necessary but it is worth supporting the developer of DropSync as it is a good app
- Set up dropsync to sync from your device's /Android/data/com.dna.lyricpad3/files/ directory to the /LyricPad3/ folder in DropBox as a two way sync (or one way sync if you like, up to you)
- Set up the default sync options in dropsync
- Tell dropsync to sync.
- Check that your Lyric Pad 3 database has updated data in it.
Repeat for additional devices.
