Wi-Fi Sync - Sync your iPhone or iPad without wires

My USB'shny docking cable that is commonly used to synchronize Apple mobile gadgets, slowly but surely started to break in two places at once, What inspired me to search for alternative ways to connect with Mac'om, preferably without wires.

The solution was found quickly - it was Wi-Fi Sync, which consists of two components: a server installed on the desktop computer, and a client for the iPhone. In the long run, the server simply emulates the connection gadget on the docking cable, so iTunes is no reason to doubt the honesty of the user :)

Without waiting until Apple realizes this possibility officially Greig Hughes, author of the Wi-Fi Sync, even sent an application for review to the censors in the App Store. However, needless to say that the attempt was not successful? Despite the fact that the author is not writing utilities use private API, Wi-Fi Sync was rejected for one simple reason - the program duplicate existing device function.

In general, the client has in Cydia Store, which was sold for $ 10, so it can download only the users that have passed jailbreak. But desktop server for Wi-Fi Sync, you can

download absolutely free, and on the author's website has separate versions for Windows, Leopard and Snow Leopard. After installing both components of the system, the user needs to create a pair of devices. To do this, run the Wi-Fi Sync on your iPhone, click on the menu will appear on the icon and select the «Pair with ...», a positive response to a confirmation request to the client.

After that, you can safely run iTunes - after a while, the gadget will appear in the sidebar. As I have said, did not notice the difference the media player, and will offer at any time to synchronize your device. If desired, the user can disable the backup of the server menu. Importantly, do not turn off at this time on the iPhone app.

Unfortunately, the transition to iOS 4.0, I ran into a problem caused by the utility server. The fact is that during the firmware recovery process stops at a certain place, and would not like to end successfully. Helped only the removal of the server component, restart the computer and repeat all the necessary actions.
