Just remember which file is your "master" file. All you need to use CC on your iPad is FileMaker Go and your CallersCompanion2.USR file. The most important thing to know is that ALL of your dance data resides in your CallersCompanion2.USR file. The process is the same for an iPhone or iPod. Below are the over-complicated but recommended steps for doing so, using iTunes on a connected computer. The most confusing part of using CC with an iOS device is how to get your dances onto it. Don't delete and older version until you've downloaded and tested the newer one.

With older versions of CC, stick with the version of FM Go that works. With the current version of CC use FileMaker Go 17. FileMaker Go is a free app.ĭo this first before preceeding to the next step. To run CC on an iOS device, you need to download "FileMaker Go" from the App Store on your device. All features and screens of Caller's Companion can be used on an iPad and a limited set of features - primarily Search and Display - are available on smaller devices like an iPhone or iPod. Here at Productive Computing, we’re aiming to bring more visibility to the FileMaker platform by way of these videos and are excited to share with the community these great features from our broad perspective and many years of first-hand experience with the FileMaker platform.Running Callers Companion on an iPad or other iOS deviceĬaller's Companion's is built using the FileMaker Pro database development environment and can be run on Apple iOS devices such as the iPad as well as both Windows and Macintosh computers (sorry, no Android or Chrome option at this time). Tip: When programming, you need to make sure you query for what functions available are based upon the age/version of the iPad being used. We take a deep dive into the GetSensor function and compare it to the Location and LocationValues functionality and discuss how this new function extends the functionality of these existing functions to a whole new level. This new mobile function allows developers to tap directly into the iOS device sensor information, including battery, location, speed, acceleration, air pressure, step counts, and more.

In this video, we’re going to focus on the new FileMaker Go 17 Get Sensor function.
