Hi! Can I sync 1 database between 2 macs? For example, if I use it on my macbook and my wife on iMac at home, how can we collect all information to 1 database 1 time per week?
Thanks in advice!

   Vadim, you might want to look at Dropbox:

   https://www.dropbox.com/referrals/NTE1MDIyODc5
   or
   http://www.dropbox.com/

   It lets you share files between computers for free.

   Be warned, however, that as of MoneyWell 1.4.13, your account ID and PIN numbers were stored in plain text. I don't know if that's been fixed in version 1.5x or not. This means that you may be exposing your account data. Make sure you check with the MoneyWell staff about encrypted account and PIN numbers, and also check with Dropbox to see if they store your data securely.

   Dropbox ix a great secure solution, but you have to be careful to not leave MoneyWell open on one computer while accessing it from another. This will cause data loss or corruption :(
