Auto Sync - Invokes synchronization

Hi All,
I am developing an application that would have AutoSync publication items in it. I was able to make out the setup of these properties of the publication items from the documentation of Oracle Lite.
I was successfully able to setup the Autosync publication and any record commit on the device was able to be propagated to the server as soon as the record is committed.
What I also could infer from the document is, the same way any record commit on the server and after MGP Compose phase, the records are synchronized to the client.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12095_01/doc.10302/e12090/sync.htm#BCGJDCCD
But I could not get this happening. The records after they are modified are in the Out Queue, but donot get to the device until a normal manual sync or autosync of that table occurs from the device. Else the records are just there in the Out Queue and are not sent to the device. What I expect from the statements in the document is, after there are records in the Out Queue greater than the threshold value, the records should get synchronized to the client without the client having to initiate any synchronization.
If anyone had worked with this, could you please help me out on this.
TIA, Aravind

I used the MDK to configure the auto sync settings. I used the Mobile Database Workbench for this.
I had set the autosync rules at the publication level, as to "Synchronize if the out queue contains 1 or more modified records ". I was able to see the setting in the Mobile Manager screens also.
Since I had set up the rule only for the server side, the autosync agent does not show the last sync status. I had synchronized many times after setting up this rule and there are also extra metadata tables created on the device after this synchronization.

Audio files won't auto-sync in Premiere CC - synchronize option is grayed out

I just started using Premiere CC and am trying to synchronize three cameras and one additional audio source using the new auto-sync feature - which syncs by waveform. Even if I'm just selecting two audio clips on the timeline, right-clicking on the clips brings up the menu with the "synchronize" option grayed out - not available. Why should this be?
I'm mixing clips from two Canon T4i files with audio, multiple Red clips with audio, and an mp3 file from an Edirol recorder.
Premiere just doesn't seem to want to even attempt an auto-sync with these files. Even if I unlink audio from video and then try to sync audio - no "synchronize" option.
I'd really appreciate any ideas or suggestions anyone might have on this.
Rob

It just doesn't work with separate audio clips. This is known. But I've never seen the option grayed out completely. Not sure what would cause that.
You're sure all the camera clips have audio? You can put them in the sequence and see the waveform?

Auto sync iPod on one computer, manually manage on other?

I would like to be able to auto-sync my playlists to my iPod on one computer, but manually manage them on another.
I have my iPod set to auto-update with my music library at home, but when I use it on my G5 at work, all my songs are grayed out and I can't play them. I don't have any songs on the work computer itself; I just want to be able to use iTunes to play what's on my iPod.
It seems that the preference to auto vs manual update is for the iPod itself, not for iTunes on each computer.
Is there any way short of changing the preferences each time to do what I want to do? Am I missing something totally obvious?
Cheers!
Katy

It may be that both systems think they "own" your iPod. I don't know if this will help, but give this a try:
First, make sure that your home system is set to auto-sync and that it's synchronizing to your iPod correctly.
Then, on your work system:
1) locate the iTunes Library file (it normally will be in your users Home -> Music -> iTunes folder) and delete the folder.
2) While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Command and Option keys. This should stop the iPod from auto synching with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
3) Set the iPod preferences to manual synchronization. You should then, of course, be able to play tracks from your iPod.
Take the iPod home and connect it to your home system. If luck holds, it will then not switch it to manual.
Again, I don't know if this will help, but it's worth a try. Let us know if it works.
Good luck.

Auto-Sync doesn't

Since I updated my Fascinate to i500.DL09 the Settings > Account and sync > Auto-sync option does not stay checked. The i500.EA28 update does not correct this . Has anyone else experienced this and or have a fix?
Verizon...help please!

SOLVED!
Thank you demmo86rt! With your reply in mind I checked Android Optimizer and found I had unchecked Automatic synchronization in Power saving > Power optimizer to save battery power. I checked it and immediately received a Gmail and checking Auto-sync I noticed it was checked too. It's great to know I can rely on the community. THANK YOU!

Desktop Auto Sync

I have the destop software installed for my BB curve and have the auto sync box checked. It seems I have to manually press the sync button in order to sync the device when it is connected to my computer. And when I do manually sync, it goes through every item and takes a few minutes. As I add an item to my desktop, like a calendar event, shouldn't I see that item automatically on my device? Any help would be appreciated.

If the bottom auto-sync option is enabled, are the top two checkboxes also selected (Reconcile Messages, and Synchronize organizer data)?

IPOD auto-sync mystery

I am a relatively new user to ipods (about 2 months). I have ITunes set up to sync only the songs in my library that are checked. I rate these songs either 3,4, or 5 stars. Songs that are considered 'Recently Added' will sync correctly no matter what the rating. But after time (when they are no longer 'Recently Added'), all of my 3 star songs will delete from my ipod, even though they are still checked in my library. Only 4 and 5 star songs will auto-sync. I have the latest 7.1 itunes. Is there a mystery setting I don't know about? Thanks for any help. I would like not to rate all my songs 4 or 5.

TOC Auto-Sync and Custom Buttons

I have two CHM files.
One contains English content, the other has French content. We're okay with having to change Windows display language to French in order to see the localized interface. It would be great to force it to French without having to do that, but it's better than nothing.
I have a handy dandy little javascript in my master page to flip between topics in the two CHM files. This is where my problems begin.
My flipping back and forth works great but the TOC does not auto-sync despite me having that checkbox enabled on the windows in both projects.
Then I added a Custom Button in each project (let's call it Cat in English and Chat in French) that points to a Redirect Topic (using the meta refresh method) to launch a Remote Topic. The redirection works great but again, the TOC does not auto-sync.
Getting back to my English/French setup... let's say I'm in the English project CHM, I change my display language to French, all of the interface buttons change to French except my Custom Button which is still "Cat". From what I've read, I'm guessing there's no way around this? I'd rather not have to put "Cat/Chat" for the Custom Button text or leave it as is where it will stick out like a sore thumb unless my display language always matches my language content.
Any suggestions or am I stuck with what I have?

You have two different CHM files, right? One in English and one in French.
Correct... one English, one French.
Yay! I understood!
I'm assuming your JavaScript allows displaying the matching topic from the other language? If so, isn't the matching topic simply replacing the topic that was there before? Here's where it gets real fuzzy. The TOC should already be synced to the topic. Are you saying it loses focus or something?
My javascript determines the matching topic from the other CHM and changes the window location to the other topic. If I'm in the English help, on an English topic and click my French link, the link opens the corresponding French topic but my TOC never changes to the French TOC - it's still showing the English one.
Okay, so that's not really a synchronization issue. In my view, synchronization means expanding and highlighting the page in the TOC so the user may see where they were.
If there are two projects, one in English and one in French, each project would have its own Custom Button definition, right? So why not enter Chat in the French project?
I would have Chat in the French project for the Custom Button... the confusion would be if I open the French CHM while my Windows display language is English or change my Windows display language to French and open the English CHM. In those scenarios, the interface buttons will be correct but the Custom Button text will match the content language rather than the interface language - that's when it will look wrong.
Gotcha.
Personally, assuming I'm correctly understanding this setup, I would think you are somewhat asking for trouble if you allow a click within a topic to change the language. I would think it to be a better solution just to keep the user inside the same help file. Choose the language at the beginning if you like, but remain in that language until the file is closed.
Ah, but the end users want on-the-fly translation by topic without having to open the other CHM and find the topic all over again. This is CSH, so the user may very well have gotten directly to a topic and would like to see the other language immediately. Essentially, it should be as though the user closed the current CHM, opened the other CHM and located the exact same topic - instantaneously
I'm thinking that perhaps a possible answer would involve using an HTML Help Shortcut control to launch a new instance of the viewer. Open the CHM for the correct language and display the relevant topic. What I think you will have issues with here is that the CHM viewer adapts to the language of the operating system I believe. So I'm not sure the TOC will know how to dynamically interpret you want French or English. Maybe it will based on the language choice in RoboHelp. But I'd be surprised if it worked that way.
Hopefully Pete Lees will see this thread and pop in to offer some other insight.
Pffft Pffft tap tap tap... is this thing on? Earth to Pete. Calling Pete. Pete, are you there and monitoring this frequency? ... - - - .... ---.--

Unable to turn on auto sync using link for windows

When trying to select files to auto sync, I am unable to check the boxes. What can be causing this and how can I fix?

Hi dtomp79,
Welcome to the support community!
Which type of files are you trying to synchronize automatically? Media files or organizer data from Microsoft Outlook? Are you able to manually sync these files with the automatic sync check box not selected?
I look forward to your response.

Manually copying / Auto-sync.

Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to double-check on something. I want to manually copy music from iTunes to the iPod. I found the directions on how to do that, but I'm concerned about one thing. The directions start by telling me to connect the iPod to the laptop first. When I do this, won't it automatically begin to synchronize and delete stuff off the iPod first? Or will it prompt me before it does anything? Just trying to be extra-cautious. Thank you in advance for any assistance.
Regards,
--- Gary

The directions assume that you are going to change to manual before making any changes to your iTunes or before connecting to a different computer. If you have deleted anything in the meantime and you have your iPod set to auto it will erase what you took off. If you are connecting to your own computer it will not give you a prompt as it recognises this as the home library.
However you can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys (on a Mac hold down the Option and Command (⌥ and ⌘) keys). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer. Then go to Edit> Preferences>iPod and check the "Manually manage songs and playlists" box.
If you are changing to manual because you want to connect to a different computer it's a different story. If your iPod is set to update automatically take care when connecting to a different computer and iTunes. If it is set to automatically update you will get a message that your iPod is linked to a different library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press *No*. Pressing "Yes" will irretrievably remove all existing songs from your iPod. Your iPod should appear in the iTunes source list from where you can change the update setting to manual and use your iPod without the risk of accidentally erasing it: Using iPod with Multiple computers

Is there a way to auto sync playlists while manually managing your music?

I used to use WMP11 before I bought an iPod and used iTunes, and in that I was able to auto sync playlists to my Samsung dap, as well as being able to manually drag tracks/albums to it.
Since using iTunes, I have found it is not as accessible in this regard. Of course, you can opt to manually manage your music, but if you do this, it does not auto sync any info. This means that if I drag a playlist to my iPod and alter it at a later stage by adding more tracks, it won't alter it on the iPod unless I manually replace it with the amended one. It also means that any ratings that I set on my iPod do NOT get transfered to the tracks in iTunes when connected.
What I have done is set a playlist called 'iPod Tracks' in iTunes, and have dragged any extra albums to my iPod using that, as well as the smart playlist 'Top Tracks'. But the disadvantage of this is, if I drag a few songs from an album into my 'iPod Tracks' playlist, then later decide I want the whole album and drag that over, I end up with two of the same tracks in the playlist, which makes it look very untidy (although I am aware only one of each track will be on the iPod) so it is not ideal.
Surely there must be a way to auto sync playlists so that when you amend them in iTunes it does so on the iPod too, as well as manually drag over any extra tracks/albums you want without having a messy playlist work-around like I have done.
Any help/ideas?
Thanks in advance.

There is no way to sync content back to itunes. As you are aware there are a couple of unsupported ways to recover your content, you will need to decide if your content is valuable enough to go down this route.
If so and you are not comfortable with the procedures, I suggest taking the unit to a data recovery specialist with mac experience.

My itunes wont auto sync my iphone 4 after i connect it to itunes. But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day.

But it can auto sync when i connect it to my old laptop. what's the problem that it can't auto sync and when i did a backup in my new laptop, it was corrupted the next day and i was forced to use back a backup which i did in my old laptop 4 months ago. do i have to reinstall the itunes? will my backups be corrupted after i sync again? pls guide.
P.S/ its the latest version of the itunes whenever i did the backups.

iPod touches or any iDevices from Apple sync only to one computer. If you sync to a different computer, all your music will be replace with the music from the new computer's iTunes. If the music were purchased from iTunes, you can re-download them again otherwise the music on iPod touch will be deleted. Do you have iTunes backup?

How can I stop apps from auto-syncing on one of my computers...?

Hi all
I have an ipad 2 that I sync to my MacBook Pro at home. I also have a few other computers on the same iTunes Store account. One of which is my work iMac 27inch (Lion and iTunes 10.5.2). Every morning when I turn on iTunes it trys to download the apps that I have downloaded from the appstore on my iPad. Some of these are quite big and I certainly dont need them on my work computer. I have turned off auto-syncing of everything on the iMac and iPad but every morning I have to manually go to the Downloads on the sidebar and pause/delete the active downloads. Even if I delete them they reappear the next time I open iTunes. Very annoying...??? Any ideas...???
Richie

Hah.... That was quick...! Seems to have worked too. Very easy. Annoyed with myself that I didnt see that.
Thanks a million

Did restore, pc froze, rebooted, auto-synced to another account-needed to "setup as new" - how to get contacts back?!

okay...2 days ago the iPhone 4 vibrated for a good 45 min. did a hard reboot on the phone, stopped vibrating, locked on call screen, can't answer or recieve calls. Talked to a tech support last night. Was told to do a restore, saved all of what we could beforehand and after it was done with restoring to click on "Setup as new" opt. I did so, my pc froze while it was syncing the apps through iTunes so I had to reboot. Without realizing I didn't unplug the phone it auto-Synced into another iTunes account and contacts, etc. I NEED the previous contacts that were saved last night on this phone! How do I back to "set up as new"? or get those contacts back?!

Hi Becki ..
You need to "authorize" the Mac.
Launch iTunes on the Mac then from the iTunes menu bar top of your screen click Store > Authorize This Computer.
Now, using the same Apple ID as you used to purchased iTunes media originally, you should be able to sync all your content.

Apple TV auto sync inoperative since 2.3 update

I have an Apple TV setup with the following components (most all Apple pieces):
iMac G5 with Enet connection to
Time Capsule (router) with wireless connection to
Apple TV, a laptop PC, and iPod Touch
My software versions are: OS X 10.5.5, iTunes 8.0.2, Apple TV 2.3
I only use my Apple TV as a source for music and photos played on my A/V system. This has worked well for about a year. I had some time ago synced a sizable music collection and photos from my iMac to the ATV and have left it connected for auto sync ever since. When I added music or photos on the iMac, it would do incremental syncs to the ATV so that the new music and photos were then available on the ATV. Sometime, around the time of my installation of ATV 2.3 software, all syncing to the ATV stopped, even though the configuration of ATV still shows it set up for that. In addition, the ATV will not appear in the Device list in iTunes, except when I make a streaming connection. The ATV Main/Settings/Computers dialog shows the name of my iTunes library, with the sync icon (chain links), and an ATV icon. The library name text appears to be grayed. This dialog also shows “Add Shared iTunes Library >”. To troubleshoot the problem, I have used that function to raise the box that shows a passcode. I can go thru that procedure at the iMac and connect my iTunes library for streaming. The ATV dialog then addss my iTunes library name under “Add Shared iTunes Library >”, and is white text (not gray) and all streaming works perfectly. In that mode I can use the ATV to access the newer music and photos that are on the iMac and the ATV appears in the iTunes device list, but only for streaming (Summary & Photo tabs only).
I have not changed anything about this configuration for about a year, except for the download and installation of newer versions of software as they became available. All other aspects of wired and wireless networking are working perfectly. My Time Capsule router continues to share a DSL internet connection between my iMac and a PC. I can also establish a wireless connection with a Powerbook and with an iPod Touch (which I use as a remote for the ATV – but not for the problems and troubleshooting described here). Streaming between the iMac and the ATV works just fine as described above. I can also stream iTunes from the Powerbook to the ATV. I believe the evidence points to a failure to auto sync introduced with the installation of the ATV 2.3 software.
What I have tried:
1) Reset the ATV
2) Restart the iMac
3) Power down all hardware: iMac, Time Capsule, ATV, DSL modem
4) Set up a streaming connection – works fine, as described above, including access to internet radio
I have been very reluctant to disconnect the sync (which sounds like it deletes all the existing data on the ATV) and doing a new sync, since it will take a long time and seems very likely that it will not work and will only leave me with an empty ATV.
It seems that similar problems suspected to be the result of the 2.3 update have been reported on this forum. Any ideas on what to do next would be greatly appreciated.

I resolved this issue by disconnecting the existing sync and going through the whole sync process again. So far this is working as hoped.

Hi at the moment my ipod is on manual sync mode. Is there any way of changing this to auto-sync without losing the music on my ipod or library? Possibly more importantly is there a way I can transfer the ratings from my ipod onto my i-tunes?

This is so I can delete music from my ipod knowing its rated on my i-tunes so I can then see later if I want to re-add it based on its rating
Thanks
