5.7.1 How to sync data between your computers

Let's see how to sync data between two or more computers which belong to the same Acronis

account. For example, you need to sync data between your home computers or between your home

computer and work computer.

If you use the default sync folder on both of your computers, the procedure is very simple.

1. Install True Image 2013 on both computers.

2. Sign in under your account on the computers.

3. Drag the files you want to synchronize into the Sync folder and they will be automatically synced

across the computers.

You can place both files and folders into the Sync folder.

5.7.2 How to sync with a local folder

You can sync any two folders of your choice on one computer. These include folders on:

 computer's hard disks

 removable or remote storage devices

 USB flash drives

 USB hard drives

 NAS (Network Attached Storage) devices

If you synchronize with a folder located on an NAS or USB drive, make sure that connection to the

NAS is established or that the USB drive is attached to your computer before creating a new sync.

To synchronize two local folders:

1. Start True Image 2013 and then click the Synchronization tab.

2. Click Sync local folders.

3. In the opened window, click Browse... and specify the first folder to sync.

4. Specify the second folder in the same way.

5. Click Create sync.

You can also create a new sync from Windows Explorer. Right-click the folder you want to synchronize and then

select Synchronization -> Sync with -> Local folder.... Select the folder for synchronization in the opened Select

folder window.

Here are some notes on this type of sync:
