Connecting 2 iMacs and using Syncopation

For some reasen I just don't get it done: connecting two iMacs (with up to date software) and then using Syncopation 2.2 to make a back-up of my iTunes library.
I'm not comfortable with 'networks' and this seems to play a role here.
I have connected the two Macs using ethernet but I have the feeling I forget something or do something wrong.
That, combined with the fact Syncopation provides very unsatisfactory instructions, makes that although the machines 'see' each other:
a newly bought album is not back upped to the second Mac.
If anyone can provide me with a step-by-step-manual-for-complete-dummies to solve this, I would be very, very grateful.
Thanks!!!

We do not have any way to know how your app 'Syncopation" should work or is working. You need to go on the web and contact Syncopation's web Techincal Support to get proper help with that.

How to i connect my imac and my macbook so there doncuments are up to date

how do i connect my imac and my macbook so they are in sync and up to date with the same documents?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
There isn't a way to connect both Macs with a cable to keep your documents updated on them. However, if you need all your documents updated on both Macs, you can use a cloud service as iCloud or Dropbox to sync your documents. Preferably, I recommend Dropbox because it can sync all type of files between both computers > http://www.dropbox.com
Another thing you can do is to buy an external disk and put your documents here

Can you Run Lion server on iMac and use monitor for another computer

With lion server you don't need a monitor and I figure why buy a mac mini when i could by a 27" imac and use it as a display and a mac mini running lion server.
I have been going over the scenarios and am trying to decide if I should buy the TB display or a second 27" imac. Eventually I will have 3 27" displays... but I want to run Lion Server off of one of the imacs... and use the display with the other imac.
do you know if it is possible to use the display of the imac for a mbp or another imac while running an operating system (lion Server) on the computer at the same time.
not sure if I made my self clear there or not.
Ryan

Ryan as long as both the Mac Mini and iMac have Thunderbolt you could use the iMac as an external monitor for the Mac Mini. The current machines with Thunderbolt connections are 2011 iMacs, MacMini's, MacBook Air's & all MacBook Pros.

Dataset query issues twice if the dataset is connected to matrix and used in multilookup function

Hello, Wendy.
I prepared a very empty sample report for you to demonstrate the problem - with this report, i hope, there is no place to discuss the shrinking of time data retrieval.
There is one dataset, one parameter and one lookup function. The query is executed twice.

Got an iMac and used migration tool (PC to Mac). When I try iTunes i get The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version.... download iTunes now? but i have it already???

I just got an iMac and used migration tool (PC to Mac). When I try to then open iTunes i get the message
<The file "iTunes Library.itl" cannot be read because it was created by a newer version.... download iTunes now?>
...but i have it already downloaded, when I press download now, it tells me I already have it, but it still won't let me open iTunes???

Unless you've tried to install an older version of iTunes that message likely indicates a corrupt library file. See Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash...

hI, bella
I also met this issue a few days ago and I finally find out how to transfer music from iPod to computer:
1. Plug your iPod in and wait for the computer to recognize it.
2. Open up 'My Computer' and under 'Devices With Removable Storage', double click and open apple iPod.
3. Click on 'Tools' at the top of the window and drag down to 'Folder Options'.
4. Under the 'View' tab, find the subfolder called 'Hidden files and folders'.
5. Select the option 'Show hidden files and folders'.
6. Click 'OK'.

HT1758 Can i connect my non apple laptop to my iMac and use the iMac as an extra/dual screen while using my laptop?

Got a new laptop from work, no choice on the type, but want to plug it's docking station into my iMac so I can use dual screens while using the laptop. Can I use the Ethernet port for this?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Target Display mode only supports Late 2009 and Mid 2010 27-inch iMacs, and Mid 2011 and newer iMacs to use them as external displays, but it only works over Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt, not Ethernet.
Your PC needs Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt (depending on your iMac) to be able to use your iMac as an external display, so it is probably that you cannot use the iMac as an external display. Instead, look for information in the Internet about VNC viewers that allow you to do that

New iMac and using old G5 as 2nd monitor?

Hey y'all.
About to get either a new 21.5" or 27" iMac, and would like to know would I be able to connect them to my old G5 iMac? I'd like to use my g5 as a second monitor or for spanning to increase my desktop space. Is this possible with the G5? It's the 2ghz g5 iMac, the last one they made before switching to intel(Doh! Bad timing on my part. Lol).
Anyway...thanks for any advice or comment.
Cheers.

Hi iregan,
a direct connection is not possible since only the 27" iMac has a video-in port and your G5 iMac has not.
Have a look (and maybe test-drive) at ScreenRecycler http://www.screenrecycler.com/ScreenRecycler.html as a possible solution.
Regards
Stefan
