I've been trying to get MobileOrg set up with Dropbox, and I seem to
have done something to make it impossible for MobileOrg to sync.
Whenever I try, I get an error message like,
Unexpected error: error getting mobileorg.org
(paraphrased somewhat)
It was syncing fine at one point, but then I decided to move my ~/org
directory into the Dropbox directory, and MobileOrg evidently didn't
like the change.
How do I get the MobileOrg app (on an iPod Touch) to start up again?
Thanks,
-Rod

I have not used dropbox, but the directory with your org files and the
place in webdav that is your MobileOrg staging area are conceptually
separate. You still have to org-mobile-push even if org-directory is
someplace in dav space.
To let someone debug this, you'll have to post your entire relevant
config, including setting of org-mobile-directory, org-directory, and
the URL you put in MobileOrg.
(I have mobileorg syncing fine, from two instances (production and beta
builds), one where I have a separate DAV dir accessed via the local
filesystem, and one which is accessed on a remote server via tramp/ssh)

I have same same error. The steps I took are as follows;
- Downloaded MobilOrg app for iPhone.
- Created an account on Dropbox.
- Linked Mobilorg to Dropbox account.
- Created test entry in Mobilorg.
- Attempted to sync.
Error returned "Error syncing changes. An error was encountered while attempting
to fetch mobileorg.org from the server. The error was: Unexpected error"
On my Dropbox account, I see:
MobileOrg\.dropbox

But you need to run org-mobile-push from Emacs, and set any
variables it relies on. I forget which, but they are in the
manual.

Ah, so I have to have an existing org-mobile-push'ified ".org" file in
Dropbox prior to syncing? I don't think this is really made clear in the
instructions. I didn't know that there was an org-mobile-push dependency
between Emacs and Mobileorg. I had the impression that Mobilorg could be
used stand-alone.
I'll try this and report back.

No, I don't think so. That's why the instructions talk about the
'staging area'.
So my system is: I have my 'real' orgmode files in Dropbox, but
not in my MobileOrg directory. I then have a command in Emacs
that when I press C-c g, my .org files are committed to git, and
org-mobile-push is called to copy them to the dropbox/MobileOrg
directory. I then can sync from the ipod and have them there.
I can make changes on the device, marking items as done and taking
notes.
When I come back to my desk, I use a command bound to C-c p to
call org-mobile-pull. I also have auto-revert-mode enabled for
org files, so all changes simply appear on screen in my org
files.

I started over. Followed the instructions at http://mobileorg.ncogni.to/ and
everything works.
Thanks,
