Is there an add-on, similar to the way X-Marks syncs between laptop and desktop, to facilitate the syncing on ReminderFox?

As a "tech novice" I am intimidated by the method described in the Firefox Help.

AFAIK, there is no Sync option for ReminderFox, but there is an option to export / import your data or send email reminders to yourself for specific reminders.

You might want to contact the developers of that addon to see what their plans are for allowing your ReminderFox data to be synced thru Mozilla Sync, which is available as an extension now and will be part of Firefox 4 - due to be released near the end of 2010.

I may have a solution for your problem. I have ReminderFox on my desktop and also on a laptop and have reminderFox sync'ed between both. This is how I manage it. I use a PC Sync program called SugarSync to backup and sync other files and folders on my computers. By adding the "reminderfox.ics" file to the SugarSync program, it will automatically sync entries on both computers. I tried a variety of methods to do this and this was the only way I could find that works well.
