Increase frequency of Mac to MobilMe/iPhone synch
Authored by: nematodirus on Mon, Jul 14 2008 at 12:53PM PDT
OK, that's weird.....after about an hour, the iMac has started to Sync every 5 minutes as per the plist setting. Why should it take that long for the setting to "take" ?

Bottom line: this works. Although as others have commented, it is probably not good for the MobileMe servers to have everyone Syncing this frequently. Now I have proved to myself that it works, I may just switch back to 15 minutes.

Increase frequency of Mac to MobilMe/iPhone synch

It might not have loaded the new setting in until it ran the sync again. I had opened and closed the MobileMe prefs pane after making the change so that it would load the new setting. I think also performing a manual sync at that point would also obtain the same result.
