To get started with Synchronize!, create a Synchronize! settings document. Synchronize! settings documents describe two folders which are to be kept identical, and the options for that synchronization. Once you've created a settings document, you can synchronize the contents of the two folders. 

To create a Synchronize! settings document:

1. Choose New from the File menu. This creates an untitled settings document.
2. Click the left folder icon. Use the dialog to select a folder.
3. Click the right folder icon. Use the dialog to select a second folder.
4. Save the settings document, so that it can be used in the future.

We recommend that you name your settings documents in a distinctive way, such as ending the name with "Sync", to help you easily remember their purpose.

See the next topic for information on synchronizing with your settings document.
