# org-mode and orgzly sync issues
I sync my [[org]] files between [[Emacs]] on my desktop and [[orgzly]] on my phone using [[syncthing]].
At the moment I'm finding they get out of sync reasonably frequently, and you get an error in orgzly saying 'Local and remote notebooks are different'.
My steps to resolve are:
- on desktop, copy \`GTD.org\` to \`GTD.org.desktop\`
- in orgzly, from the Notebooks view, choose to override remote notebook
- that means syncthing syncs \`GTD.org\` back on to the deskop
- then in Emacs, do an ediff of \`GTD.org\` and \`GTD.org.desktop\` and pick out the bits you want from each
- things will sync OK from there
