Peter – Thanks for the comment. Sorry for taking so long to approve your comment. I have not been on the blog in a while.

I have taken to storing my DTPO databases on a large (64 gig) USB thumb drive and will work off that for a while. I think a sensible thing to do would be to get CarbonCopycloner or ChronoSync or some other solution, but I have yet to do so.

Thanks for the input on how you are using DTPO.

– Ryan

The latter is easy, the others use it with the database sitting in dropbox. I try to make it my rule when I move desks or go out with a laptop that I shut down the open DTPO (its always open). The mac tells me when I try to open one and the file is being accessed elsewhere. Thats annoying and I know there is aa scripting way of remotely closing DTPO but as yet I haven’ done that.

I migrated to DTPO from playing with Yojimbo, Notebook, Evernote etc into one single DTPO. I religiously file non current pdfs etc in Bookends which I run similarly on four machines). I took Evernote etc off my iPad so i wouldn’t be tempted. I have retained Simplenote for quickies but rarely use it as I live with Omnifocus which is fully registered as a family pack on all my machines, generally open on two the two desktops 24hrs a day.
