I have developed a personal management system (sched, todos, etc.)
and I would like to use it on both Mac and iPad--with changes made
on device one showing up on the other. Is that possible?
I'd like to know before farmatting the iPad version and paying
Apple $99/year for the privilege.
Thanks for any guidance on this.

Re: Synching data between OSX and IOS
Hi Earl,
Welcome to forums.
You need to use an intermediary layer to sync your devices.
That is an online database {php & mySql, maybe, I'm not an expert on this}.
The active app should write each change to this database like creating an event or deleting an appointment.
This is actually cloud computing, simple idea but it'll probably get trickier to perform the sync process correctly.
Try finding more related threads searching with keywords like cloud or sync devices in other boards of this forum.
Best,
~ Ender Nafi

You can use (and Ender suggests) a MySQL/php backend to sync between devices and computers or you look at iCloud (you'll need an external on the iOS side - not sure how to do it on OS X: http://maartenkoopmans.com/micloud)
