I configured emacs org-mode on a Mac, working properly, having my org files and MobileOrg file within my DropBox folder ( ~/DropBox/ ). Now, I will like to get my emacs setup working properly on my Windows box. I have been able to get it working in terms of reading my .emacs file and emacs.d folder, shared through simlink config. Everything seems to be working properly, except that when I want to execute org-mobile-pull or org-mobile-push on Windows, I get the following error: "Variable `org-mobile-directory` must point to an existing directory " The problem seems to be that emacs isn't configured to read or point to the org-mobile directory , per the paths set in .emacs (eg. = "~/DropBox/ ...........").
Running on Linux I found I needed the following in my .emacs: (setq org-directory "~/dropbox/org/org_files") (setq org-mobile-directory "~/dropbox/MobileOrg")(setq org-mobile-inbox-for-pull "~/dropbox/org/org_files/tasks/org_inbox.org")
Have you got all these set? Somewhere there is a possible bug where a misleading error message gets displayed referring to org-mobile-directory, when it means org-directory. I keep meaning to try and track it down.
