Sync Desktop for Mac
Mac UtilitiesSync Desktop is the Mac app for the Sync cloud storage service. It creates a Sync folder on your computer, and anything you place in that folder is stored in your account and kept up to date across your machines. People use it to back up important work, share files with clients and reach their documents from the web panel or a phone when they are away from their desk. The app runs quietly from the menu bar while you work in Finder as usual.
Key Features
- Automatic sync of your Sync folder between your account and every computer you install it on
- A normal folder in Finder, so saving and organising files feels familiar
- Access to the same files from the web panel and the mobile apps
- Sharing tools for sending files and folders to other people
- A menu bar icon that shows sync status and opens your folder quickly
- Backup and restore of the files you keep in your account
How to Download
Create your Sync account first, since the desktop app signs in to it during setup. The vendor notes that you need admin rights on your Mac to install and run the app. You can Download from the official site through the Sync help pages, which link to the current desktop installer. Open the disk image, move the Sync app into Applications, launch it from there, and follow the setup prompts to finish signing in.
Common Questions
Is there a free account?
Yes. The vendor lets you create a free account from its home page, and paid plans exist for people who need more storage and extra features.
Which version of the app is current?
The vendor help pages cover the current desktop app rather than promoting one fixed version number, and the app itself shows its version in its settings if you need it.
Where do I find my files after installing?
Look for the Sync folder in Finder and the Sync icon in your menu bar. If the icon is missing, the app is not running, so launch it from Applications.
