• Complex Schedule Miracle Worker

  alanrosemanSeptember 6, 2010

  Pros

  Allso repaired several complex sync issues with the Daylite database sync.

  Cons

  No cons at this point. When an application functions as promised and costs a reasonable amount. There should never be complaints.

  Summary

  I run my tech business on the Macintosh operating system, using the Daylite Database (from Market Circle) on multiple computers as well as an iPhone. When one is syncing 1000+ contacts and several years of client appointments, with copious notes, to several computers as well as Mobile Me... you know that "trouble is brewing". I had been experiencing a problem where several appointments were multiplying on their given day. For Example Christmas 2011 had placed itself in the appointment book 687 times! Ditto for several anniversaries and client visits. Once this occurs, it then syncs itself to Mobile Me, The Daylite Server, your office desktop, then to the MacBook pro and ultimately.. the iPhone. Large scale mess with 2000 - 3000 unwanted appointments slowing down the sync process, and sometimes crashing the iCal calendar due to the number of appointments jammed into a single day! Enter Spanning Tools.... Repaired my duplicate appointments in one fell swoop! This after many hours of scanning my schedule and then deleting them one by one by one by one.... ad nauseam. As a bonus, the Spanning Tools Sync Tool, repaired all of my sync preferences in the most simple and elegant way imaginable! I will recommend this application to my Mac clients and make it a regular part of my IT office practices. Loved it!

• Works like magic for me

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />The application is working beautifully for me. I used it already when it was in beta (and free during the beta) and immediately got a licence when it made it to 1.0. The application corrected numerous problems I had (duplicate calendar events because of the Entourage/iCal mess, duplicate contacts, contacts with the same e-mail, etc) and it fixed everything like a charm. Since then, my MobileMe syncing is much smoother and weird warnings I was getting all went away. The application is a real blessing for me. I haven't seen problems with memory on my Mac. I find it a bit pricey, but at the end, it saved me from so many headaches that I thing it was well worth the price.

• Fixed my iPhone slow sync problem

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />iPhone syncing, just contacts and iCal, was taking over an hour, and I had no idea why or how to fix it. I just DL'd this suite and ran Sync Tune-up, and my sync time went down to just a few minutes. Great app! Thank you!
