Synchronizing Notes:
There are four places in this section which link to the Simplenote website. In the first three, the URL given is:
http://simplenoteapp.com/That URL now redirects to
http://simplenote.com/ and thus the first three links should be adjusted to match the fourth link.
CintaNotes supports two kinds of synchronization: via Simplenote service and via DropBox.

The downside of this kind of synchronization is that it can sync only to other Windows-PCs, you won't have access to your notes online or on other platforms.

This one requires a small explanation. I can see what you were trying to say here - but the way it was put, it comes across as Dropbox itself only supports Windows PC's, which is incorrect - it can synch to virtually anything. The reason why this method restricts synching to Windows, is that CN itself is a Windows only program.
2. Make sure that the CintaNotes folder is outside of this DropBox folder (e.g. in "C:\CintaNotes").

(For advanced users) If you don't care about independent settings (e.g. you use same fonts and screen resolution on each PC), you can put the CintaNotes folder inside your DropBox, by taking out the backup folder using the "backup.folder" parameter of the cintanotes.settings file.

I did make the one minor change here, but I was not sure what this section was actually trying to say - the 'backup folder' reference is confusing me and I can't quite get my head around it, so I don't know for sure if it is now correct or not. I think it is the lack of context - not only is this the first mention of 'backup folder' that I can recall, but we jump immediately to wanting to exclude it from Dropbox (so why would the program folder be ok to include, but not the backup folder?).
But please allow some time (usually about 2-10 minutes, depending on your internet connection) for full synchronization cycle.

With DropBox, you will notice them with the appearance of the "conflicted copy" notebook files alongside of cintanotes.db.

Also, there are inconsistencies in the use of 'Dropbox'. The correct name is 'Dropbox', but in a few places, it is listed as 'DropBox' (note the capital B, which is incorrect as per the Dropbox website). All uses of 'DropBox' should be replaced with 'Dropbox'.
