I'm trying to set up Mobile Org, but there's some= problem,

All my org files are placed in in ~/My Dropbox/org/org, as= following:
-----
(defvar org-dir (concat Dropbox "/org") &= quot;org dir")
(defvar org-source-dir (concat Dropbox "/org/org")=A0 "org s= ource dir")
(defvar pub-html-dir (concat Dropbox "/org/public_= html") "html dir")
(defvar org-mobile-dir (concat Dropbox= "/MobileOrg") "org mobile dir")

Then I set Mobile Org like this:
(setq org-mobile-directory org-sour= ce-dir)
(setq org-mobile-force-id-on-agenda-items nil)
(setq org-mobi= le-inbox-for-pull (concat org-source-dir "/mobile.org"))

After org-mobile-push command, the agenda is generated, but in Mobile O= rg, it could not be opened,
and the error message is bad file encoding, = unable to detect file encoding, please re-save this file using UTF-8.

So how could I figure out what the file encoding of my org files, and i= f not, how to convert them (there's quite a bit) to UTF-8,
and in th= e future how to save the files automatically to UTF-8 with the Chinese supp= ort?

The coding system is really confusing, thanks a lot!!

Chao,

UTF8 string, the error message about encoding is presented.

The cause of your problem can be many things:
=A0- the file is incorrectly recognised as encrypted
=A0- the file is incorrectly recognised as not-encrypted
=A0- the encoding is not utf-8 and there are offending bytes
=A0- the parsing of the index file fails somehow

To make sure utf-8 is all you do, evaluate (in .emacs e.g.):

(prefer-coding-system =A0 =A0 =A0 'utf-8)
(set-default-coding-systems 'utf-8)
(set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8)
(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'utf-8)

Furthermore, make sure you try everything not encrypted.

Also, this helped with me, don't run the latest git org-mode against production release mobileorg. Somehow my mobileorg on iphone failed on
the first lines of the index file. mobileorg on Android didn't fail
however.

Good luck!
