Does this feature work in Moneydance 2015.7?
It does not seem to be working for me though I thought it used to.

    Hi Marcia,

    This feature should still work with 2015.7. To share your data set between two computers running Moneydance (as opposed to a computer running Moneydance syncing to your iOS or Android devices), you need to move your data set to a folder that's shared by the two computers. We recommend using your Dropbox folder and you can do so by following the directions in this knowledge base article:

    http://help.infinitekind.com/kb/moneydance-2014/how-to-move-your-da...

    to move your data set to your Dropbox folder, then open the data set from there on each computer (only on one at a time, to avoid corruption) and your data will sync between the two computers.

    If you're still having difficulty sharing your dataset, can you send us the output of your console log from each of the computers that you would like to sync? This can be found by going to Help -> Console window in Moneydance, then clicking the "Copy to clipboard" button and pasting the output to us here.

    Hope this helps, and feel free to contact me with any questions about this process!
