Ipad will not sync
I have been syncing Moneydance on my Mac with my Ipad for many months, but it has stopped working. I believe this is because I have moved house and am now using a different wifi box. Both devices are on the same network, but cannot "see" each other. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app on my Ipad (even though I lost some data as a result), but now my Mac does not list the Ipad when I choose "configure network syncing." They are both running at the same time, and I have tried different combinations of starting the app on each device first, but to no avail. I have also tried creating a network on my Mac and joining it from my Ipad, but it still does not work.
This is a key feature for me, because I use/update my data from my Ipad. This has cost me quite a bit of time trying to get it to work, and as I said, could not sync data that I had updated on my Ipad and lost it as a result.
Is there another way to sync, such as through the cable? If you are preparing an update to fix this problem, when will it be available?

Hi,
We are aware that syncing for the Moneydance iphone/ipad app is not working well on some of our customer's network configurations. We apologize to those who have been affected by this. We have made it our top priority to redesign the syncing mechanism to address these issues.
The next release of the app will include a syncing mechanism that is immune to issues with local network and router configurations.
The new syncing mechanism will work in any network configuration and will not require both the desktop and device apps to be running at the same time. In addition, you will be able sync anywhere you have internet access.
We are excited to roll out this fall an app with bulletproof connectivity that maintains the same standards of security and reliability you've found in the desktop version of Moneydance.
We appreciate the patience that the Moneydance community who is affected by syncing issues has given us to figure out the best new implementation. We will notify you once the new release is available.
Sincerely,
Jon Hoover, Moneydance Support

I have installed Moneydance on my Mac and the Moneydance App on my Ipad 2. I can not sync the two over the same network. Is the fix you spoke about now available?

On June 7 we submitted the iOS app to Apple to approval, so we'll definitely post on our blog, Twitter, and Facebook as soon as it's available. This update includes significant improvements to syncing, including Dropbox based syncing. We're not sure how long the approval queue is (Apple is a bit opaque about it) but we're hoping soon! We'll also post on this thread when the app is available.

Some bad news: Apple did not approve our latest update to the iPhone/iPad/iPod Moneydance app. This was due to the Dropbox authorization page linking to an external signup form.
The good news: we've re-submitted the app using a newer version of the Dropbox SDK that resolves the issue while also making the Dropbox authorization a bit easier. This submission also fixes a few small bugs that were discovered in the past week.
We're all very sorry for the additional delay in getting the app update. I expect it will be another 5 working days which is Apple's current advertised time to review app updates.
