Applications :: IPhoto Bi-directional Sync Between 2 Macs

Feb 22, 2009

I have a new early 08 MBP laptop (Leopard) and a G4 tower (Tiger) using IPhoto 08. When out of town I have added photos to my laptop. I have also added different new photos to my tower. Is there a software way to update both computers to have the same photos? I have heard the term bi-directional (my Palm Treo does this). In the case of my Treo, if I have new info in both my phone and computer, both will be updated to match each other. Now I need to do that same syncing concept between both of my computers for IPhoto (I do not have .mac).

Most programs I have found just sync from one folder to another but I would like it two way Ie if I create a new file on the USB stick and uni and also create a new file on my computer at home, I would like both these files to sync.

I'm looking for something like syncOTunes but for iPhoto. My wife and I each have our own mac, and just like our music libraries, we end up with very different iPhoto libraries. From a simple "backup" perspective it would be nice to sync the two up now and then a la syncOTunes.

Applications :: Sync Applications Between Macs?

Aug 19, 2010

I've multiple macs at office and home. I would like to keep my main documents synced between them. My main routine is , do some work at home then take those files and continue working at office and then may be continue working at home again later on. I know I can have external hard disk and work off of it, but i would like to keep copy on office and home computer, that helps to me to continue working incase I don't have my external with me. This also becomes my backup so I always have updated backup at 2 places (office and home).

Applications :: Sync IPhoto Content With Flickr

Apr 22, 2009

I am currently developing an application which will be able to sync your iPhoto content with Flickr. First shot will be one-way, i.e. iPhoto will be the master and all images will be uploaded to Flickr and added to Sets. The application will use the capture date to keep track of images and so it should work even if you already manually uploaded some of your images. With this post I hope to gather some feedback on the idea.

I hope to have a version ready for beta test in a few weeks. If you would like to participate in such a test, let me know. My email: Here are a few more things for you to comment on:

1. Currently I sync everything, but I expect to have an option where you can filter out images which should not be synced.
2. Currently an iPhoto Album = a Flickr set. What about events?
3. Currently all keywords from iPhoto are added as keywords on Flickr. Would filtering be nice to have?

We have been syncing our iphones on our imac and now we have a macbook pro too.

So when I went to sync the iphone it wants to remove all the folders I have set up. How can I sync my iphone on the new mbp without messing up all my work or organizing my apps. Is there a file I can transfer from the imac to the mbp?

OS X :: Sync Two Macs Without MobileMe

Jan 6, 2010

I have an iMac at home and a MacBook Pro for school and I'd like to sync them together. More specifically, I'm looking into syncing my iCal database as well as my Address Book database. I do not wish to pay for MobileMe, as I find it too expensive and don't have so much money to waste at this moment of the year, but I tried it and it worked like a charm. It's just overpriced though, especially for a particular (maybe for an enterprise they will use every buck out of this service, but not me). I was wondering if there was a nice application for that... or an Automator script, of if I should try and figure out how to code my own Automator script?

OS X :: Keeping Macs And Devices In Sync

Sep 22, 2009

My purpose is to summarize what I can collect as information on the best way to keep macs and devices in sync.

First, I will focus on the main goal I want to achieve: keep iCal and Address Book in sync for a macbook and a mac mini. The sync can occur via internet (nice-to-have) or simply when they are on the same network (minimum requirement).

Later below are also separately listed info on files/folder sync.

The option I have found so far:

For Address Book and iCal:

1) Mac OS X native option
Mac OS X Snow Leopard offers the possibility to keep iCal and Address Book in sync, via a Google Account or a Yahoo Account.

FREE requires Google account also keep Google Contacts and Calendar in sync But no contacts picture sync, limited phone number (3 or 4 per contact)

2) Mobile Me
iCal, Address Book, ...
+ storage, web hosting, complete integration with Mac OS X...
79$ / year

3) Others...

Spanning Sync 3
http://spanningsync.com/
Almost as option 1) as it requires a Google Account.

BusySync

Fruux
[url]
Only between computers. But they don't need to be ON at the same time (using fruux cloud).
FREE
BETA
also sync bookmarks and notes.
10.5 and upper.

For files/folder sync:

1) Mobile Me iDisk

2) Dropbox and analog, whether they are webbased on full applications
Dropbox
[url]
Chronosync
Amazon S3
Microsoft Live Mesh

3) Other solutions, more manual...
[url]
rSync
Part of OS X already. You may need to update it depending on the task, but if you can figure it out, here it is:
rSync

What am I using? I am now trying Fruux. Free and doing exactly what I needed: sync 2 macs for address book and calendar. Not less, and a little more. More after a few days of use!

OS X :: Sync Programs On Multiple Macs?

Feb 12, 2010

I've had a MacBook Pro for some time, and am now wanting to sync all my programs (preferably without mobileme).

Many years ago, I was able to network multiple mac computers and have each of those macs draw their information from a common file on the server. For example, the mail program on each computer would reference it's mail file in the library which was an alias that pointed to the actual data file that was stored on the server. This was an easy way of linking the email, so when mail was altered on one computer, the changes were made (in essence) to all computers.

I would like to do that with my iMac and MacBook, but also the music library, iCal, Address Book etc.

Is there a way to set my Time Capsule up as a server to handle something like this?

Software :: Sync IPhone To 2 Macs?

Oct 27, 2008

I've had a MacBook Pro for a while and had been syncing my iPhone to it, and just got an iMac. I'd like to start syncing to the iMac (as well) so that I can have copies of all my stuff on all 3 devices. Is this possible? AppleCare tech support says "no" but I don't see why it should be. (my main reason for this is so that I can download applications or application updates from whichever computer I'm on, and don't have to wait until I'm on a certain computer to administer my iPhone)

I was thinking that to sync the applications to both devices I might have to copy them from my MacBook Pro to the iMac before syncing the iPhone to the iMac.. and I might have to be equally careful to make sure that the iMac has all the media/files that I want it to have before syncing to the iPhone --- lest I do something like wipe out all my iPhone music because there isn't any yet on the iMac.. so I'd first:

1. copy from MacBook pro to iMac all music, photos, apps (contacts, calendar are synced to Outlook so there's no worry here

2. then sync the iPhone to the iMac

Software :: Sync Two Macs Using External Drive?

May 10, 2008

I have a Mac at home and one at work. They are both Panthers and about 4 or 5 years old (still run great). The two machines are sort of growing apart from one and other as far as the data contained on each machine. Some is very similar and some isn't. Like I said, they are growing apart. Is there a way I could sync them by using an external drive? I would not want to lose data in the process.

ITunes :: Can ICloud Keep Playlists In Sync Across Macs

Mar 19, 2012

I would like to keep my playlists in sync across my macs.Is there some new "iCoud" way to automatically sync up my playlists? For example, I have an iMac and a Mac Book Air. I can keep all of my songs in sync with the new iTunes "Purchased" feature, and that works perfect. The piece I do not understand how to do yet is:I have a playlist on my iMac called "Good Songs" Currently, I know how to export this from iTunes as a text file and copy the text file to my laptop and import it.But then when I make changes on my iMac, I need to redo the export / copy / import all over again. Is there an iCloud feature I can enable or leverage some how to make these changes propagate automatically? 

Info:
iMac 27" i7 / iPhone 4

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Sync Keychain On Multiple Macs?

May 21, 2012

There are a lot of forums on this subject, but are specifically about Apple removing Keychain sync with iCloud. I cannot find any solution as to how to do it now they removed this option.  

I have installed Keychain2Go but it just synced right away to "somewhere". I guess it's their servers. So I am concerned about that as I don't know this company.  

So is Keychain2Go the only solution to sync Keychains now? I cannot find any other solution.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3)
