Syncing Mac with Windows

I'm using Dropbox to sync my Resources between my Mac and Windows (on my virtual machine). I primarily use the Windows version of Logos (at least until the Mac version is more mature), but I'd like to keep my Mac version up to date with the changes I make on Windows (where possible). Am I able to sync anything else besides the Resources? Will Annotations, Collections, Custom Toolbars, Resource Associations, Resource Markups or anything else work on my Mac version if I sync them? Thanks.

    I am currently using the collections that I have made up under Windows on the Mac version and they seem to work fine. I don't think Markup, custom toolbars will work.

    I have all the Logos user files in a shared folder on the Mac to make them available to Time Machine, but the only user files that are compatible with the Mac version are the Collections. Windows and Mac workspaces can reside in the same folder as they have different extensions.

    Why do you want to synchronize the resources on Windows and Mac? Why not place the resources in a shared folder on the Mac, unless you are using Boot Camp.

    Thanks for your replies Jack and Donovan. I'm using Dropbox to synchronize my resources, OneNote files and other files that I use on my desktop and my laptop. Saves time having to manually move files between the two machines or download new files to both machines. Works well so far.
