An AppleScript to keep your devices in sync

launchd is a better mechanism than either cron or ical for these sorts of things. Download the free Lingon program to make a new launchd item:

An AppleScript to keep your devices in sync

I second this, launchd is a great way of setting up something to trigger at a designated time. I have a iSync script that gets fired at 8am every monday which is accurate enough for my needs plus I can manually trigger an update during the week if some extensive changes are required.

Lingon is fantastic! :)
