Turn off autosync for iPad?
Good afternoon,
I bounce around a lot between OF for Mac, iPad and iPhone, and would like to turn off autosync for iPad (I know how to turn it off on iPhone), but I don't see an option for this. Am I missing something? |
Hey Lightstorm. You're not missing anything yet, no. There've been a few users requesting the ability to turn it off as well — I'll pass this on!

You can use the [URL="http://people.omnigroup.com/kc/DebugOmniFocus/DisableAutoSync.html"]Disable Auto-Sync[/URL] page to turn off automatic synchronization so OmniFocus only syncs when pressing the sync button in the toolbar.

Good morning, Ken. This doesn't seem to work for iPad; I added a test task, waited, and sure enough, the icon started spinning. I then synced my iPhone, and I saw the new task. I did restart OF on iPad after making the change. Are there any other methods? Thanks! |

Woops, sorry, the page was using the command to update synchronized database settings rather than local device preferences. It should be fixed now. |
Hey ken, the link doesn't work anymore, is there still a way to disable auto sync on the iPad?

:) Yeah, I'm also curious about this. |
If you visit the following page and click on the Sync every year link, it should effectively disable Auto-sync. It sets the MaximumTimeBetweenSync parameter to 1 year. I added an action to my Inbox on my iPad after running this about 5 hours ago, and it did not appear in my Mac Inbox until I just forced a sync on the iPad. If you leave the program running for 1 year, it would do a sync on its own, but I don't think that is likely to happen!
[URL="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/971671/Disable%20AutoSync.html"]Disable Auto-Sync[/URL] I don't plan to keep the link alive forever, so here's the source code: [code] <html> <head> <title>DEBUG: No Auto-Sync</title> <meta name="viewport" content="width=320" /> </head> <body style="width: 300"> <p style="font-size: 140%"><a name="reset-keychain" href="x-omnifocus-debug:reset-default:MaximumTimeBetweenSync">Reset sync to default interval</a></p> <p style="font-size: 140%"><a name="reset-keychain" href="x-omnifocus-debug:set-default:MaximumTimeBetweenSync:31536000">Sync every year</a></p> </body> </html> [/code] |
