Sync from iPad - File Must be Open?

[RyanESmith7]

I've got everything sync'ing, fantastic! I'm having one issue, however. If I sync from FM Pro, there are no issues. But when sync'ing from my iPad with the same mobile file, I get a "Unable to connect to the server" error UNLESS I have the hosted database open in another window. Is that normal behavior? I was hoping to make this more seamless for my end user. Should I open the host file from the sync script?

 

Thanks,

Ryan

I saw that occurring in my solution too. In my case, I had been moving the mobile file and the hosted file into different locations and that put them onto different networks. If you have ensured that the remote address for Hosted_Database is correct, try closing fmGo completely on the iPad. Double click the home button to reveal recent apps then swipe the fmGo window up to remove it. That should clear the caches, which may be hanging onto old data.
