Title: Syncing with my desktop?
Post by: Dreamsinger on March 21, 2016, 09:16:19 AM
I just got Setlist Maker on my Tab E. I think it's going to be a huge help. Inputting on a tablet is a PITA for us large handed folks. Is it possible to input from my Ubuntu desktop and sync it to my tablet?  <crossing fingers>

No, but if you buy BandHelper instead, that has a web interface so you can edit your data from a computer:

I tried but every time I get  this message; "Account name can't contain the characters ' ' "

Spaces aren't allowed in account names. There is a separate Display Name field that can contain spaces.

Got it. Finally got Bandhelper loaded on the PC and the Tab. Still trying to figure out how to make Bandhelper and Setlist Maker talk to each other.  The answers are probably in the tutorials but I'm not having much luck finding them.  Thanks for your patience. Sometimes the curse of being older is that the technology isn't as intuitive as it is to younger users.

BandHelper and Set List Maker don't talk to each other. If you use BandHelper, you would use the BandHelper app instead of the Set List Maker app. Download links are on this page:
