   DEVONthink and DEVONnote 2.5

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Adding a significant synchronization boost to its stable of information
   management apps, DEVONtechnologies has updated all three editions of
   [1]DEVONthink (Pro Office, Pro, and Personal) plus [2]DEVONnote to
   version 2.5. The new release enables you to synchronize databases
   between multiple computers and locations using Dropbox, a WebDAV
   server, or your own mountable drive, as well as with other copies of
   DEVONthink on the same local network or VPN. Colleagues can access the
   same "sync store," download databases, work offline, and then
   synchronize all changes (local and remote) either manually or
   automatically.

   All three editions of DEVONthink plus DEVONnote have also received
   improved tagging capabilities, which includes a Tags column in document
   lists to make it easier to tag multiple items. DEVONthink Pro Office
   improves its Web sharing capabilities, providing support for uploading,
   creating, renaming, moving, and trashing documents, and editing text
   plus adding the capability convert images and scanned PDFs to
   searchable PDFs. In addition to Mac-based Web browsers, the full Web
   interface also runs on Safari on the iPad.

   If you had been using any of the previously available public betas of
   DEVONthink 2.5, you'll need to delete your existing sync stor e folder
   (on your file server, WebDAV drive, or on Dropbox) before using the the
   final version. (All updates are free. DEVONthink Pro Office, $149.95
   new, [3]release notes; DEVONthink Professional, $79.95 new, [4]release
   notes; DEVONthink Personal, $49.95 new, [5]release notes; DEVONnote,
   $24.95 new, [6]release notes; 25-percent discount for [7]TidBITS
