Mail syncs practically immediately, and additions to the Notes app in OS X 10.8+ are synced to Android via Gmail and tagged as Notes. Be sure the checkboxes next to “Mail”, “Notes”, and “Calendar” are checked in the options, these are separate options in OS X Mountain Lion but the same in Lion.

Click on “Gmail” to add the same Google/Gmail account, enter name, email address, and password then choose “Set Up”.On the Mac, open System Preferences from the Apple menu and click on “Mail, Contacts & Calendars”.Have the Android device configured with a Gmail account – this varies slightly per Android version and device so we won’t cover that here but chances are good you already have this set up anyway.The process is basically the same as setting up a standard mail account with OS X, and if you haven’t done it yet then Mail app will become active with the Gmail account you use. If you have set up iCloud before, you will find setting up Android and Google syncing with a Mac to be very similar and just as easy.
