Buy US Coin Collector for Windows

US Coin Collector for Windows

US Coin Collector for Macintosh OS/X
BUY - App Store

We really, really, really appreciate your support as a paying customer of our Coin collecting App's.

Really.

We are a small software company, it's hard to survive. Our staff is limited to one programmer, me, john. My wife complains that I'm spending too much time writing software that sells for a cup of coffee.

I tell her how great my customers are, how they appreciate the software I'm creating. I explain that our customers want us to continue developing great software 4 their iPad's, iPhone's, iPod's, and now Mac and Windows Computers.

She's not convinced and she's given me challenge -- sell a butt load of software or quit.

I need your help.

Please buy a copy of our US Coin Collector for Windows, or if you are a Mac user,  a copy of our US Coin Collector for Mac Computers.

THANKS

Manual Backup

Action Menu
SaintsSoft's iPhone (iPod, iPad) App's support multiple methods of backing-up your collection. First among these, and easiest, is to use the Backup action accessible from the Coin View Action menu. This is an InApp purchase, costing $1.99.

It is the easiest option, backing up your entire collection from your Phone (iPod, or iPad) to the Cloud using Dropbox. Following a backup, you can switch devices and perform a restore, effectively moving your collection from one device to another.


US Coin Collector for Windows can import this same Backup, all that is necessary is to install Dropbox for Windows and then select the Dropbox folder in your user folder, Dropbox ~ Apps ~ US Coin Collector.

Export iPhone (iPad) Collection

Export Coins
US Coin Collector for Windows
Exporting iPhone Collection


When you've changed the collection and want to synchronize with your iPad, use this option. To get the collection updated on your iPad, two things are needed:

  1. Windows - Export to Dropbox.
  2. iPhone - Restore from Dropbox


For this to work correctly, you must have first installed US Coin Collector on  your iPad (iPhone), and done a Backup to Dropbox. This is required, as it creates the directories in Dropbox which store your Coin Collection.

How to install Dropbox on your iPad (link).
Install Dropbox on your Windows Computer (link).

Requirement:
Action Menu
Open US Coin Collector on iPhone (iPad), and from the Coins View, select Action menu, select Backup (a purchased option.). Do a Backup to move initial collection to Dropbox cloud storage & create appropriate folders.

Once Dropbox is setup, and you've done an initial Backup from your iPad (iPhone), and you've changed your collection in US Coin for Windows, select the Export iPhone option and click the "Select Export Folder" button.

The "Browse For Folder" window appears. Open your user folder (Administrator in example), and then open Dropbox ~ Apps ~ US Coin Collector.  Then click OK.

If you don't see Dropbox, and Apps, and US Coin Collector, you have not done a Backup of your collection from your iPad (iPhone) to Dropbox. Resolve that first.

Export Coins Destination

Once the US Coin Collector is selected, click Export in the "Export Coins" view and wait for the Export to complete.

As soon as the Export is complete, Close the window and open your iPad (iPhone), select the Action Menu and Restore option.

This will restore the collection you just backed up to your iPhone (iPad).

That's it, you now have your Collection updated on your iPad (iPhone).
