<p>Sorry for the delay, please find the instruction required below:</p>
<p>(hopefully I've not left anything out. If you feel we can add anymore information to it, please let us know and we will update it asap)</p>
<p>In order to switch you sync method to iCloud Drive Sync you need to ensure that:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>your computer is running <a href="https://infinitekind.com/download-moneydance-personal-finance-software">Moneydance 2022.5 (4091)</a></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>the data file you wish to sync is stored in the <a href="https://infinitekind.tenderapp.com/kb/file-locations-and-changes/default-file-location">default location</a> on the computer where you set up the process.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>your devices are using the same iCloud account - this is very important! It is not currently possible to sync to multiple iCloud accounts.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We recommend creating a backup before proceeding save it to a location of your choice, eg.:your desktop (just in case).<br>
To create a manual backup, choose File --> Export Backup.</p>
<p>Then you should navigate to <strong>File->Syncing</strong> and turn sync off by choosing <strong>Don't Sync</strong> - if you were using a different sync method previously, and restart Moneydance.</p>
<p>Navigate to <strong>File->Syncing</strong> and choose <strong>iCloud Drive</strong><br>
- Set or take note of your existing "Passphrase".</p>
<p>On your iPad/iPhone you need to install the latest <a href="https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/moneydance/id367748818">iOS mobile app</a>.</p>
<p>Launch the mobile app and choose the same file as your computer.<br>
Enter your Password to match the Passphrase on your computer.</p>
<p>Finally, enter a "dummy"" transaction on each device and allow a few seconds for them to sync. They should display exactly the same transactions.</p>
<p>I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions or need more assistance.</p>
