# Syncing with Logbook of The World in Aether

Aether makes it easy to synchronize your logs with Logbook of The World (LoTW). It includes the ability to upload logs to LoTW as well as download confirmed QSLs. Before you start using this feature, make sure you've followed the instructions to set Aether up for LoTW. It is important to remember that you must fill in your LoTW username and password in the QSL tab of Aether preferences.

To synchronize with Logbook of The World:

- To synchronize all QSOs in your log:

1. Select "Synchronize all QSOs with LoTW" from the Log menu, or press control-S (see screenshot below).
2. Aether will display a message informing you that Uploading to LoTW was successful, or an error message if a problem was encountered. If the synchronization was successful, you'll also see the LoTW Sent Status for all the QSOs in your log change to checked. The LoTW Received Status of any QSOs for which confirmed QSLs were available will be checked too.

- To synchronize only some QSOs in your log:

1. Select the QSOs you'd like to synchronize.

2. When the option key is held down, "Synchronize all QSOs with LoTW" in the Log menu changes to "Synchronize selected QSOs with LoTW". Select this or press option-control-S.

   OR

   Right-click (or control-click) in the QSO table and select Online QSL->"Sync selected QSOs with LoTW" (see screenshot below).

3. Aether will display a message informing you that Uploading to LoTW was successful, or an error message if a problem was encountered. If the synchronization was successful, you'll also see the LoTW Sent Status for the selected QSOs change to checked. The LoTW Received Status of any QSOs for which confirmed QSLs were available will be checked too.
