The Org-mode docs describe the right way for you to proceed: define the files you'd like to have transferred in org-agenda-files or org-mobile-files. This tells org-mobile-push which files to copy from your local Org directory to Dropbox. You should also be able to do: (setq org-mobile-files (quote ("~/org"))) to have all .org files in a directory added to the list. The MobileOrg docs are explaining that MobileOrg will only download files referenced by another file. In most cases this is useless information, because if you list them all in org-mobile-files, they will all be linked to from index.org and therefore all synced from Dropbox to your phone. I am working on some updated that I hope will make it more clear. Hope this helps, Richard On Sun, Sep 5, 2010 at 4:05 AM, Ning Bao wrote: > What I want to achieve is that upload many (50+) org files to my iphone v= ia > dropbox.
