Using FF7; Syncing my data between laptop and desktop; everything syncs fine, but for the tabs. I have no history of the open tabs of the other device, nor can I find an option to let start a session the latest session of the other device

FF7.0 beta
sync on laptop and desktop
no tab history of the other devices
solution to start session with latest session of synced device?
win 7 64bit

Good instinct not to shut down!
Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Copy all sessionstore files (e.g., sessionstore.bak, sessionstore.js) to a safe location (e.g., your Documents folder). Whatever was saved before is in one or both of those files.
This problem of a window sometimes loading the correct number of tabs but the tabs not being navigated to the corresponding pages has been mentioned before, but I do not recall anyone identifying what causes it or how to solve it. If Firefox saved the URLs of those pages, they will be in one or both of those sessionstore files.
These threads have suggestions on how to "mine" the old file to extract the URLs:
* Using Firefox's Browser Console (formerly known as Error Console): https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/969046#answer-471950
* Using Firefox developer tool "Scratchpad": http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=622036&start=60&p=12098147#p12098147

Can you recover them?

Synchronizing user data between Laptop and Desktop

We have a Macbook and an iMac. While my kids and wife went to visit the Grandparanets I lent them my Macbook, used SuperDuper to create a copy of my Laptop's drive and booted it on the iMac (ok, that is pretty cool!).
All worked very well and now they are returning and I need to merge the information on the Macbook itself and the SuperDuper drive I have been using on the iMac.
There are multiple user accounts on each and all that was really added on the Macbook would be photos and movies and iTunes music one 3 of the accounts.
Is there an easy way to sync user accounts between two computers? I am quite familiar with .mac and syncing wha I would call preferences. It cannot handle stuff like synching iTunes, iPhoto or iMovie though.
Appreciate any suggestions
JIm

Well ... here is what I ended up doing. Hope it helps someone
Once the laptop came home:
1. I made a SuperDuper image just in case (to another Firewire drive partition)
2. Then I logged into the user accounts on each and used Backup to backup Home, iLife ... for each user on the laptop that logged in while they were gone (I asked them)
3. Then I used SuperDuper to overwrite the hard drive on the laptop using the SuperDuper image on the Firewire drive.
4. Then I logged into each account on the laptop where I backuped up data and restored it.
It took a little while but everyone is happy and has their data

Using EPMA to transfer data between HFM and Essbase on 11.1.1.3

Can we use EPMA to transfer data between HFM application and Essbase cubes on Hyperion version 11.1.1.3?
As far my understanding we can only link HFM and Essbase through EAL.
I would be very keen to know from the audience if we can use EPMA to transfer data between HFM and Essbase

Hi Yogananda,
Check epma admin.pdf, page 439. Chapter 19 describes how to synchronize and map data between Hyperion applications, interface tables, and external files via EPMA Data Synchronization.

Should I use a macbook pro as my laptop and desktop, or have a macbook pro and an iMac?

i was wondering if i should use my macbook pro as a laptop and desktop, or if i should go ahead and buy a mac desktop too?

Just look at how many posts are on this forum, let alone the Boot Camp forum, about Windows on a Mac.
Got to any of the virtual machine software forums and take a look. Why do you thing there are 3 different virtual machine program available for the Mac to run Windows, let alone Apple's own Boot Camp system.
If it wasn't needed do you think Apple would have there own system for installing and running Windows on all Mac computers.
I personally don't know of any Mac users, and I know quit a few, that do not have a version of Windows installed on there Mac computers. Either in a boot camp partition or in one of the virtual machine programs.
There is some software that has just Windows versions. If you need that software and you own a Mac you need Windows to run it.

Moving Music Videos between laptop and desktop

I have purchased 4 music videos from iTunes store. They are on my laptop. I was travelling on business and wanted to try out the new music videos.
Now that I am home and using my Dual G5 desktop, how do I move or share these videos off my laptop top to my desktop? Is there any way to sync two iTunes libraries to keep them the same. Since I own both laptop and desktop seems rather stupid to not be able to do this.
I really just started using iTunes when the video part was released, so I maybe overlooking something really easy to fix this issue.
I have turned on iTunes music library sharing on the laptop but only audio music is shown when viewing from my iTunes desktop. No videos are listed. I event made a playlist folder on my laptop called Videos and copied the videos into this list.
The list "Video" shows up when looking from my desktop, but no vidoes are listed in the playlist.
thanks

Bill,
"Is there any way to sync two iTunes libraries to keep them the same. Since I own both laptop and desktop seems rather stupid to not be able to do this."
I have the very same situation as many others do, so I've asked the very same question to an Apple Genius at the Manhattan Village Store in CA, and the answer is no. Why? You can have multiple iPods connected to a single computer, but not multiple computers connected to a single iPod. The reason for that is DRM.
Your best bet is to keep both libraries synched using apps like "You Synchronize" or "Folder Synchroniser", this way you'll have the same library across both Macs, and you can use any one as a Master for your iPod. Works for me!

Syncing Lightroom between laptop and desktop

I did large, two day studio shoot last week.
I do the majority of my work on my desktop, and for the first time I used a laptop for this shoot.
I used an exteranl hard drive that I plugged into the laptop, and I kept my catalog and all my images on that external hard drive. I shot tethered directing into Lightroom. I did a little work at the shoot, changing things in the develop module, cropping, and adding metadata.
Now, I'm at home, I've got my external hard drive still plugged into my laptop, and on my laptop I selected all my images and chose 'Save Metadata to file' (command S) so all my changes would transfer.
A window popped up that said 'One or more of these photos has been changed in an external application. Should Lightroom overwrite the Settings on disk??' I then have the option of hitting 'cancel' or 'Overwrite Settings'.
I'm confused by this as I have only amended these images in Lightroom. If I say 'Overwrite Settings', will I loose information? For example, every image has been cropped, but I would like to be able to retain access to the full image, and I'm nervous if I hit overwrite settings I'll lose this.
Am I being crazy?
Ellen

Ellen,
This is a long-standing bug that seems to get better but never completely go away. There is probably one or two images that LR "thinks" have been changed from somewhere outside of LR and when you select all images it is just telling you that at least one is in this state. Unfortunately there is no way I know of to sort or automatically isolate images with potential metadata conflicts except to browse the grid display looking for conflicting icons.
I usually select less than all (say 40 or 50 at a time) and keep saving until I isolate the image or images that is in question such that I save data to all the other images that are not in conflict first, then attack the error images one at at time. In all cases though, I end up overwriting the data since I trust the database of LR to have stored the most correct data. I just want to know what images were at risk so I can review them immediately after overwriting the data to make sure indeed they are alright. I generally use a temporary quick collection to isolate them.
The good news is I have never had a result that required me to go back in and re-develop an image. The bad news is I still am not comfortable hitting "overwrite" after selecting all images and just letting it rip. Hmmm ...

Having problems transfering music to my Nano between laptop and desktop.

Recently my desk top PC broke down. I then got a Nano for my birthday (cool) so bought some podcasts and tracks from i-store and downloaded a small proportion of my cd collection using my laptop. For some reason it takes a couple of hours to download a cd into i-tunes. For that reason, now my PC is back with me I downloaded the rest of my cd collection onto the hard drive then transfered the music into the recently installed i-tunes.
Here's the problem, when I connected the nano to the PC for the first time I was asked if I wanted to replace the present library (laptop) with the new PC library. I want both as I don't see how to get the bought and paid for stuff off the laptop, onto my PC and then on to the Nano.
I can understand why this may of happened as you could just plug your i-pod/nano etc into someone elses laptop and bootleg their music but I don't want to have tp pay for my downloads twice. Can anyone help me out?

your iphone can only synce with one pc at a time, but when you want to add songs to your iphone for another pc, and you don't want to lose the data that you already have,
1- on your music store creat a new list(on your iphone)
2-press synce
3- the songs that are on the pc, drag them to the play list you created and synce.
that is what i always do

Tranferring video between laptop and desktop

Is it possible to -via a USB/Firewire- to transfer some FCE work from my laptop directly to my Imac or do I need to pop it onto a DV tape and load it into the Imac?
Thanks.

You can transfer files from one Mac to another via Firewire using what's called Target Disk Mode.
To do this, power on your iMac while holding down the letter T key. Keep holding down the T key until you see the standard yellow firewire logo appear on the iMac's screen (that's all that will be on the screen, just the firewire logo.) Then connect your laptop to your iMac with a Firewire cable and start up your laptop. Your iMac will show up on your laptop's desktop just as if it were another disk drive. From there you can use the Finder (on your laptop) to copy files & folders to your iMac.
When you're done, shut down your laptop. Then turn off your iMac by holding down the power button until it shuts off. Then turn off the power to both Macs. Then unplug the firewire cable.
Voila ... done.
ps. This is not a hack ... this is a standard Apple procedure. And, obtw, it cannot be done via USB

Share one copy between laptop and desktop Macs?

I intend to do recording with Logic Express on location using my MacBook, then to transfer the projects to my desktop Mac with the good studio monitors and work on them at home. Do I have to buy a 2nd copy of LE8 to do this legally?

The package showed up today, and yes, it explicitly states in the license that I can install one copy on my laptop and one on my desktop.
I wasn't sure if the fine print differed across the Atlantic. Thanks Fox!

Coordinating Aperture between laptop and desktop

I'm working on a photo archival project that involves several thousand images, mainly scanned.
I do my scanning and image cleanup on my desktop (a 24"3.06 GHz iMac with 4 GB RAM). Then import the images into my Aperture project.
However, when I am meeting with colleagues working on this project, I need to use a laptop (Macbook Pro 2.4 GHz, 2gb RAM) so we can meet outside my office.
Here is my question: how can I keep the copies of the Aperture project on both computers reasonably synchronized?
Thanks for any advice.
Rich

I have a single Aperture library that I move between my desktop G5 and my laptop MBP.
The library resides on a portable 2.5" drive (200 GB) that has both eSATA and USB 2.0 connections. On my G5 I get the speed of eSATA, and when I'm using my laptop, the USB speed is tolerable.
The great thing is, I keep some images IN the library (managed), and most of the images on another, much larger drive (referenced). Any projects I'm actively working on, I can keep the images managed in the Aperture library, so I have them on both my desktop and laptop. The rest of the images I simply "push out of" the library and reference them on the big hard drive, which stays attached to the desktop G5.
For me, this arrangement works very well. If I am on a trip, shooting, I create a new project and Aperture "manages" my images in the library. When I get home, I tell Aperture to "push" the images in the new project out to the big hard drive, and "reference" the images. It works quickly and easily.
Perhaps something similar would work for you?
Enjoy!

Sync error - connection between handheld and desktop can't be established

My sync quit working. I synched successfully a couple days ago, then updated my software and changed my conduit to 'Outlook' based on a message I saw here (trying to get my contacts and calendar into outlook so I can sync into a new Blackberry Storm). Since then, I can't sync at all.
I have tried everything I can think of. I have turned off/on my PC, soft reset my Treo 650, tried to reload the desktop software from my original install disk from Verizon but that didn't work - I got the following error message while it was removing the files "ERROR 1316 A network error occured while attempting to read from the file C:\windows\installer\palmone.msi"
So I downloaded the software from this site as a 'repair'. It didn't fix anything.
Silly question though, could this be because the phone is turned off now? Even though I want to still use it as a PDA only? Please help, I'm not a techie...
thanks

Try to disable the Adobe Reader plugin in Firefox and use the external Adobe Reader program or Preview instead.

Apple TV connectivity with network suddenly stopped; reset twice; laptop and desktop access internet fine; Apple TV box bad?

Our Apple TV has worked fine with our Wi-Fi network for about a year. Connectivity suddenly stopped. I have reset it twice but it is still unable to connect to the internet using my Wi-Fi name and password. Both our iMac and Macbook are accessing the network without issues. Is our Apple TV box bad?

Hello Heypaddles,
As it says at the bottom of the article, please contact Apple Support if the troubleshooting in the article didn't resolve the issue:
If you tried all of these steps and your Wi-Fi issues persist, contact Apple technical support or take your Apple TV to the nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP) for diagnosis. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail Store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).
Note: Diagnostic fees may apply for issues not covered under warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan (APP).
