I configured emacs org-mode on a Mac, working properly, having my org fi= les and MobileOrg file within my DropBox folder ( ~/DropBox/ ).

Now, I will like to get my emacs setup working properly on my Windows bo= x. I have been able to get it working in terms of reading my .emacs file an= d emacs.d folder, shared through simlink config.

Everything seems to be working properly, except that when I=A0 want to e= xecute org-mobile-pull or org-mobile-push on Windows, I get the following e= rror: "Variable `org-mobile-directory` must point to an existing direc= tory "

The problem seems to be that emacs isn't configured to read or point= to the org-mobile directory , per the paths set in .emacs (eg. =3D "~= /DropBox/ ...........").

I found some info on the web, which pointed to setting a parameter on .e= macs so that it identified while running on Windows, that it should look in= to a directory structure.

Now, how should I accomplish this appropriately?

I found some examples of:

;;On Windows
(if (eq system-type 'windows-nt)
=A0=A0=A0 (progn
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 (setq default-directory "C:\Usuarios/User/") =A0=A0=A0=A0 )
)

But it doesn't seem to be doing the job.

Thanks for any help.
