ITunes For Mac :: Automatically Add To Shortcut In Dropbox

Jun 25, 2014

I would like to be able to upload video files I make to iTunes on my computer at home so my family can watch them on our AppleTV.  Can I create a shortcut in Dropbox or Google Drive to the Automatically Add to iTunes folder on my computer at home and have it show up as a folder in the web app or remote folder on my computer here? I need a straightforward solution that I can easily talk my wife through.  Creating symlinks or using Automator to watch a folder in Dropbox and move them is outside the realm what I can have her do.

OS X :: Shortcut For Automatically Resizing Windows To Fit Screen?

Dec 3, 2009

Is there a shortcut in Mac OS X that resizes two or more open windows automatically so that each window is shown on the screen simultaneously? For example, I want to have a safari window open and a word document open so that one half of the screen is showing safari and the other half is word. I know I can resize them manually but I was wondering if there is a shortcut or a third party utility that resizes any open windows to fit the entire screen? This would be useful, for example, with the new 27 inch iMacs where the wide screen can easily display three (or more) windows side by side utilizing the entire screen area; having them resized automatically would be more productive than having to resize them manually.

ITunes For Mac :: 11.4 Won't Download Dropbox App Update

Sep 12, 2014

I have Dropbox installed and an update became available.

'When I click "Download" the same alert box keeps reappearing and the file is never downloadedl.

Applications :: ITunes 9 Mini Player - Shortcut?

Sep 10, 2009

I became accustomed to using CMD+Z to switch iTunes into Mini Player and normal view. Not sure why I started using CMD+Z (I'm pretty sure it was the original shortcut before it got changed..?). Anyway, in previous iTunes versions, the green button would take it to and from Mini Player. So, to get the CMD+Z shortcut to work, I created a shortcut in Keyboard (in System Preferences) for iTunes, and assigned the menu title "Zoom" to CMD+Z. Well, that obviously doesn't work in iTunes 9 since the green button, or "Zoom" now just does what the green button does for everything else in OS X. So to get around that, all you have to do is add two new shortcuts. One for Switch to Mini Player and one for Switch from Mini Player and assign them both to CMD+Z (or whatever you prefer). Thought I'd share that if anyone else was in the same boat as me.

Applications :: Shortcut Way For Moving ITunes Music Folder?

May 2, 2009

I keep my iTunes Music Folder on an external 320gb HD. I'm about to move it to a 500gb HD. Rather than go through the steps of changing library location and then consolidating the library, can I just do this (all w/iTunes turned off):1. Copy entire iTunes folder, incl. Music folder and library.xml, etc. from old to new drive2. Disconnect old drive.3. Rename the new drive the same as the old drive.If the drive name, folder structure and file path are the same, will iTunes notice the difference between the two drives when I launch it? I'm on an MBP and, w/the simple OS X naming system, it seems like it shouldn't be a problem.

OS X :: Spotlight To Dropbox In SL?

Aug 22, 2009

I installed SL 10a432. Transferred a lot of files to the share/dropbox. In swedish this is called:
~/Delad/Brevl�demapp/ which in English would translate to "~/Shared/Mailbox folder/" or something similar, it not related to emails, just the literal translation....

what should I write in spotlight to reach this folder? i have tried loads of combination but I cannot find this folder in spotlight but I can find the items in it...

if I write "dela" as in "Delad" it suggest "delat" like it would suggest share insted of shared when it in fact was called shared....

OS X :: Using 1Password And Dropbox

Mar 17, 2010

The 1password keychain is encrypted, but if I open the keychain file so I can use 1password or to look up info on my keychain on an open unsecure WiFi, could other people see my passwords and secure notes?

I believe read Dropbox stores all files encrypted, but that MobileMe does not encrypt them. Is that correct? But since the 1password keychain is already encrypted it's not necessary to have it stored encrypted like on Dropbox??

OS X :: Creating An OS X Dropbox Killer

Nov 11, 2010

So this Gruber comment on a Shawn Blanc posting got me thinking about how Apple would create a Dropbox competitor.

[URL]

Quote:

I�ve heard rumors of a �Dropbox-killer� service from Apple, possibly a part of Mac OS X 10.7. I don�t know if it made the cut, but we�ll find out in a few hours.

The problem, of course, is what about Windows? I�m not sure how an Apple cloud syncing solution could be tied to a new version of Mac OS X.

Interesting. But knowing Apple they wouldn't just copy Dropbox they'd add a bit of flair to their version. I'm just speculating here about some of the features that I'd love to see.

Rather than one root folder I'd love to be able to set up multiple "Cloud Folders" that could be on the Desktop or Sidebar in the Finder. That way I could have a folder for shared items or have secure folders that are password protect. Sky's the limit.

There would be an option to save a document to a sub-folder that would then publish directly to iWork.com

You would have the option to sync or ignore on a folder basis. There would be Windows access as well to the Cloud Folders through an app and http access as well.

There would be Mac & iOS API access that links in with 3rd party vendors (and their API).

Apple clearly has to wrestle back control of the Cloud infrastructure that iPhone/iPad users rely on. They don't have to kill iDisk but rather they need to augment EVERY Mac and iOS iDevice with the ability to access content through the Cloud.

OS X :: Using Dropbox And Folder Aliases?

Oct 23, 2009

I like to backup the "Documents" folder as I have a lot of crucial information in there. Dropbox is perfect if I'm using my Mac, as I just throw a Document folder alias in there. Perfect!

But on my iPhone, on the Dropbox website, or on a PC, it simply doesn't work. It thinks the alias folder is an unopenable file!

How do I get it to open on other systems? I know I could just copy it to there and update it once in awhile, but the automatic updating with aliases is perfect.

ITunes For Mac :: 11.2.2 Launching Automatically In OS X 10.8.5

Jun 26, 2014

I can't stop iTunes 11.2.2 from continuously launching automatically in OS X 10.8.5. 

Not connecting any iOS device. It just automatically pops up & the first song starts playing. 

It's not in Users to start at login. 

I've re-installed a number of times to no effect. 

It's incredibly annoying, especially at work - I'm forced to keep my volume off, so then iTunes ends me a warning notification that my volume is off. 

Never happened before, going back over a decade. Just started when I "upgraded" to 11.2.2 from 10.x-something. Bad decision on my part.

Applications :: SugarSync Versus Dropbox

Nov 8, 2008

I want to abandone iDisk, for its poor capabilities and features.

I'm looking for the best alternative ...

I'm testing Dropbox and looking at sugarsync.

Dropbox seems more robust on Mac system, while sugarsync is actually in beta testing on this side, but sugarsync has more attractive price options ...

Anyone has for example tried to syncronize a large virtual disk (VMware for example) or large Aperture library ?

OS X :: How To Disable Dropbox On Public Wifi

Apr 29, 2010

I'm at the airport where they have free public wifi. There are about 40 people's macbook hard drives online with their drop box.

How do I disable my drop box on public wifi connections? How do I make a drop box alias that doesn't have my last name on it? This seems very insecure and an invasion of privacy to me.

Safari :: Syncing Bookmarks Using Dropbox?

Jun 21, 2012

I recently found an article on how to sync safari bookmarks using Dropbox. Article can be found here: [url]I'm using a latest 27" iMac, running Lion as my main work machine, along with a MacBook Pro 15" running Leopard.I've followed instructions in the article and got my MBP to sync with my iMac.The problem occurs when I add a new bookmark on my iMac, it seems to create a new .plist in the safari library folder as opposed to updating the one in my Dropbox. Thus not syncing. I haven't tried the other way i.e adding a new bookmark on my MBP.

Stopping ITunes From Automatically Launching

Feb 5, 2012

Some months back iTunes began launching itself whenever I booted my Mac, something it had never done previously. Initially I just disabled it by removing components from prefs or other locations in /Library or using AppDelete. Is there a way to stop the self-launching without removing components that only make it harder to use when it has to be reinstalled from scratch. I just want it to be a normal app I click on when "I" want it to open.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Finder Crash After Downloading Dropbox

Feb 28, 2012

 I downloaded Dropbox and the Finder has crashed by blinking with the "restore windows"-window. Then I created another administrator account and from here deleted Dropbox. Then restarted and logged in to my normal account. Now Finder wasn't blinking like before but there is nothing viewable on the Desktop and when I click on Finder in the Dock several times it comes up with a window for a splitsecond then closes the window again. Then I can press it several times again and it comes up for a splitsecond and then closes again. When hitting the command-option-esc, the icon blinks here. I've actually also tried the killall Finder in terminal, but even this doesn't work.
