Having the ability to search emails, look at bookmarked websites, and listen to music across all of my technology has become essential. Without having everything synced, I would have to bring my laptop everywhere.

In order to fully enjoy the benefits of smaller (but equally capable) devices like tablets and smartphones, it’s important to make sure you have quick and easy access to everything you need across all computers and devices.

What does it mean to sync devices?

Syncing your devices enables you to access the same information on any device, with the help of the internet.

By syncing you can:

-check email anywhere
-work efficiently from anywhere
-use bookmarks to visit your favorite websites everywhere
-play your music and movies

Which devices can be synced?

Nearly all computers (laptops/desktops), tablets, and smartphones can be synced. Most of us have more than one device, potentially running on completely different operating systems. While it may be time consuming to get everything synced, it will be worth it in the long run.

Here are some devices you may want to sync:

-iPhone, Droid, or Blackberry
-iPad, Kindle Fire, Nook Color (or most tablet computers)
-Mac & PC laptops & computers

Why you should sync everything

-quickly access your data and information
-back-up everything on multiple devices in case one crashes
-travel light by only taking some of your computing devices with you

How do I get started?

There are several ways to sync your devices. Some of your devices may already be configured to sync. For example, plugging your iPhone into your computer will bring up iTunes and prompt you to sync.

You can also start by checking out some of our favorite syncing tools: Dropbox, Google Sync, and iTunes.
