In addition to the GoZync framework itself, GoZync ships with an example file you can use to see how syncing works. In the "Local" folder, you'll find "WorxMobile.fmp12". This file will eventually be the remote file on your iPad. In the folder "Host" you'll see "WorxHosted.fmp12" which is the hosted version of the solution, the file in which your data will end up.

That is the basic way GoZync works, though it is much more impressive when your local files are running in FileMaker Go.

Now that you've pointed your copy of GoZyncMobile.fmp12 at your server, you're ready to place the mobile files on your iPad and see how GoZync really works. Once WorxMobile.fmp12 is on your device, it can download new copies of itself, but you'll need to get it there manually the first time. To do this, open GoZyncHosted from your server and head to the Downloads tab. and You'll see an email icon right above the list of files: click that and email yourself: when receiving that email on your iOS devices, you can click on the link, open the hosted downloads layout in FileMaker Go, and click the "install" button to download both mobile files. Don't forget you need both WorxMobile and GoZynMobile on your iOS device.

Using these two sample files, you can start playing with GoZync and see how it works before you integrate it into your workflow. You can use these files indefinitely with the free version of GoZync provided you don't add or change fields or table occurrences. Once you start making changes to the fields or tables in this preview file you'll need to get a two week demo license or a ProZync License to keep going.

You can then Zync this info back to your server, using QuickContact to aggregate the contacts made by a number of your employees.
