# Turning off syncing on your computer

You can turn off syncing completely, so that no information is synched across your computer and other devices. Turning off syncing completely prevents any applications that work with Mac OS X sync services (such as iSync, Mail, iCal, or MobileMe) from syncing their information. You may want to do this if you are using other applications that demand a lot of memory

## To turn off syncing on your computer:

Choose iSync > Preferences, and then deselect the “Enable syncing on this computer” checkbox.

If you disable syncing for your computer, any changes that are made while syncing is turned off are updated the next time you enable syncing on the computer.

You can also turn off syncing for a particular device (for example, your mobile phone).
