I believe Mobile org will be using your dropbox folder as its single point of contact. For example your workflow would be: - Create/edit notes/todo's on your phone - sync the app (which should save to dropbox) - Open emacs on your pc, issue org-mobile-pull - This should add your edits to your org files on your pc For the other direction: - Edit org files on your pc, issue org-mobile-push - sync on the app should import your edits into the app Im assuming you have a dropbox daemon taking care of the syncing in this process. This should be the same no matter how many pc's/emacs you use. Does this help answer your question? Cheers, Dean
