How to sync ForkLift Favourites and settings across computers?
At the risk of resurrecting this old thread, I've just had the exact same problem.

According to the developers the next major version will allow syncing of password-protected favorites via Dropbox. As of this writing no release date has been set.

In the meantime you could try this.

ForkLift preferences – including Favorites – are stored in

/Users/your-user-name/Library/Preferences/com.binarynights.ForkLift2.plist


Move – not copy – this file to your Dropbox. I placed mine in a folder named ForkLift.

Next, you need to create a symlink using the ln command in Terminal with the -s switch. This is important as simply dragging the file in the Finder to create an alias will not work.

ln -s /Users/your-user-name/Dropbox/ForkLift/com.binarynights.ForkLift2.plist /Users/your-user-name/Library/Preferences/com.binarynights.ForkLift2.plist


The downside is that passwords are not copied. Also, having ForkLift open at the same time on different machines will likely cause a file conflict with the preference file. But this solution works for me.
