9.1 Synchronization
MyPersonalDiet fully synchronizes with VidaOne Diet & Fitness for Windows
(www.vidaone.com/vodf_win.htm) via Wi-Fi, allowing you to use your PC and iPhone to
track your health and fitness, and make (precious!) backup of the MyPersonalDiet data.
The synchronization also works when using VidaOne Diet & Fitness under Parallels
Desktop® and VMware Fusion™ on Mac OS X. PDF documents that explain how to
setup each emulator are available at the web address above.
To synchronize, open VidaOne Diet & Fitness and click Profile > iPhone in. This opens
the iPhone and iPod Touch Synchronization window (Figure 29), which shows your
computer address and port, in this figure, 192.168.0.193 and 25007 respectively.

synchronization issue, unselect Use Existing partnership in VidaOne Diet & Fitness to
force a clean synchronization from scratch.
