This may be a stab in the dark, but we'd like to be able to pull the caller ID from an incoming call on an iPhone into FM Go. Is this possible? Here's the scenario: FileMaker Go is running on the iPhone iPhone receives call User answers call User switches to FileMaker Go FileMaker Go matches caller ID to its own user table entry, displays associated info for that user Probably a stab in the dark! But suggestions gratefully received. The igeeks

Hi, Ok, point 1; - Are you inserting the graphic onto the layout or into a field? PNG is definitely a supported format, and I haven't heard of this issue before. It sounds a bit like this one; http://tinyurl.com/7f2xlpx Point 2; - Dropbox is another way of Syncing data from FileMaker Go to desktop, however you must OPEN the file prior to losing connection. Once open you can lose connectivity. When you get your connection back it will re-sync with the stored version. Hope that helps.
