Exchanging photos between mac air and iPod touch

I have recently switched to using mac. I want to find out how to transfer pic from ipod touch to mac air and from air to ipod touch without using the itune sync.
Also, before i used the sync. in itune to transfer pics from mac to ipod touch before and now I have three photo album on my ipod touch that i can't delete. Can someone please tell me how to delete them?
Thank you!

You can use "photostream" in iCloud, but the photos will only stay a certain period of time in the cloud.
iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
All other syncing and erasing of synced pictures has to go via iTunes, only photos taken with the iPod can be deleted inside the camera roll.

Syncing between MacBook Air and iPod Touch

just a few questions to confirm before I commit on the new Gen.5 iPod Touch:
(1) will they sync wirelessly both ways? (i.e., from MacBook to iPod and from iPod to MacBook)
(2) can this wireless syncing be sheduled to work automatically at pre-set time intervals? .... and if so, what intervals are available?
(3) will this syncing interfere with the automatic hourly backups from the MacBook to the Time Capsule?
(4) can this syncing work "backwards"? (i.e., if there's something that's already on both of them, and I want to REMOVE it from both of them, can I accomplish this by removing it from one of them and then it will get removed from the other as part of the next sync?) .... (or, would I need to remove it manually from each of them?)
Thanks,

What are the differences between Mac Air and Mac Pro?

What are really the main differences between the Macbook Air and the MacBook Pro?
I am thinking of getting a laptop by mac. I like the prices of the Air but the Pro seems better performance.
However my needs are internet, email, word processing and some photos, pictures etc.
would i still be able to do many good applications on the Air vs the Pro?
suggestions please?
thanks

The base model current 2013 Air will perform faster and better in general than the base model 13" non-Retina Macbook Pro.
Ive got both of them.
On the Air:
Faster wifi (by far) 802ac
Faster boot and read/ write due to SSD
Much longer battery life due to Haswell upgrade made in June
Crisper sharper screen, better to stare at for long periods
MUCH FEWER parts to go bad,.....also only one moving part, the Fan
No HD to crash from mechanical failure
Packing the AIr around is a dream since is nearly the weight of an Ipad.
Dont get fooled like most do in seeing the super-skinny AIr as less than a full power machine, ....thats always someones first huge mistake when they see one.
Here is an excellent video comparison between the 11” I5 vs. I7 2013 Macbook Air.

Accessing texts between mac air and iphone

K...probably pretty basic stuff..just not for me...we have been linked between our mac and iphone for texting so we could use either device simultaneously. Somehow, that option has shut off. the mac message bar has us listed as "away" and "offline" but it won't let us click on either to change it. The "enable" box is checked as "on" and we can send texts to our contacts from the computer but the "sent from" id is our email address and not our phone number (maybe a default thing since we are listed as offline). I can't figure out how to turn this option back on...any help? thanks

What is difference between macbk pro & Mac Air besides the weight? I M a dance teacher
Needs loads and loads of music, video & photos on it. Documents also
Not sure I understand flash storage... Is this where storage is all headed on laptops etc¿
A few notable differences:
MacBook Air
- Thiner and lighter than the MacBook Pro
- Does not have a CD/DVD drive, Ethernet port, FireWire or IR capabilities
- Has an SSD hard drive which means data access is much faster than traditional platter-based hard drives
- Has RAM soldered to the logic board which does not allow it to be upgraded in the future
- SSD drives offer much less storage than traditional hard drives by default, aftermarket/third upgrade upgrade options are available but very expensive
- Supports up to 8GB of RAM
MacBook Pro
- Bulkier/heavier than MacBook Air, Retina models close the weight gap but are more expensive
- The non-Retina models have far more peripheral port options, the Retina models (like the MacBook Air) lack things like Ethernet, FireWire, CD/DVD
- The Retina MacBook Pros have double Thunderbolt ports for increased expansion capabilities.
- The 15" MacBook Pro as well as both Retina models offer much higher screen resolution options
- The 15" MacBook Pro & 15" Retina MacBook Pro offer discrete GPUs instead of shared GPUs
- Supports up to 16GB of RAM
- Allows for user upgradeable RAM & HD, hard drives with much larger capacities. Can also accept 3rd party SSDs
Regarding your needs, is 256 GB of storage (which is a $300 "add on" by the way) adequate enough for your needs? Keep in mind that the 13" MacBook Pro for $1199 has 500 GB of storage, putting a 512 GB SSD in a MacBook Air is an extra $500 and is only available as an upgrade on the $1499 model.
If you do end up with a MacBook Air, I'd recommend getting the unit equipped with 8GB of RAM.

TS2756 Unable to share file in between Macbook air and iPod or iPhone 4S

Tried sending file via bluetooth from Macbookair 11" to iPhone 4S and alsomto the iPod, but it just doesnt work.
The devices pair but I get the message, "this devise does not have the necessary services"
What are these services and where to obtain / activate them?
Is it a Mac OS problem or the iOS problem?
J.

"Tried sending file via bluetooth from Macbookair 11" to iPhone 4S and alsomto the iPod, but it just doesnt work."
Correct. This has never been a feature of iphone/ipad/ipod touch.
"What are these services and where to obtain / activate them?"
You don't.
This has never been a feature of iphone/ipad/ipod touch.
Iphone supports bluetooth for handsfree tellephone devices, stereo speakers/headphones, come keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps from the app store, and internet tethering where provided by the carrier.
Other than these it will not connect to a phone/computer device.
File transfer has never been a feature.
Sorry

Transferring files and photos between ipad air and pc

How do you connect "back to my mac" from and ipod touch?

Does anyone know how to use the back to my mac function with the iphone or ipod touch? This would be really great to get access to the computer like you can with a laptop when on the road.

Hi kclarke2000,
The Apple official feature *Back to My Mac* is only supported from a Mac computer to another Mac! So, this means you won't be able to use this functionality with your iPhone or iPod Touch yet!
However, you may want to leave feedback for Apple, by using filling out [this form|http://www.apple.com/feedback/mobileme.html].
Hope this helps!

How to share photos between macbook air and iphone5s

What is the easiest way to transfer photos from my iphone 5s to my macbook air, wirelessly. I have wifi in the house and not really sure how to use the icloud. Thoughts? Thank you so much.

Hi there Braeth,
There are a couple of ways of accomplishing this. You can either sync them directly to your computer via iTunes, or use iCloud to sync your photos via PhotoStream. I have linked some resources below for how to get everything set up.

Can I share the App's in iTunes between my iPhone and iPod Touch?

I have an iPhone and I am getting a Touch for my daughter. If I have her set up as a different user on my pc and the iTunes library is shared so we can share the music and not mess up each other’s play lists and ratings can we also share the App’s (paid and/or free)? Thanks, Robert

That is good and thank you.
When my app's are in iTunes under my user on the pc if I go to her user on the pc will the app's just be there or will I have to do something to get them in her iTunes? With music when in her user I just drag them from the music folder under my name into the iTunes that is open under her user and they are load. Is it the same for the app's or not? Thanks, Robert

Can you transfer hd video directly from an ipod and then EDIT that video in imovie? I will be on the road and wont have a mac, just an ipad 2 and ipod touch. I want to shoot video on the touch and edit it on the ipad. Thanks!

Thanks Tgara.
Its funny. So far the responses have been 50/50 on this question. I even asked two seperate Apple Store employees here in NYC, and got two different answers! One said yes, the other no.
Argh!
I know from watching the keynote speech about icloud and iOS 5 that you will be able to cut the cord between the pc and ios devices like the ipad. No more need to sync them via a cord. So will that mean i would then be able to load video directly to the ipad via tha cam kit connector from my ipod? Also i wonder if/when Apple will allow HD video from on Apple devices like a canon dslr to be able to transfer to the ipad via the cam kit connector AND be able to EDIT that footage in imovie for the ipad. Speaking of imovie for the ipad...i hope it gets an update soon as well.
Anyway....with the macbook airs getting updated next week with thunderbolt and new sandy bridge chips....i may just get one of them instead of the ipad 2 for editing video on the road. Still...i prefer surfing the web experience on the ipad. Grrrrrrr. **** youuuuuuu Apple!!! Lol

I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums

I am planning a long vacation and taking my laptop but it is my home computer that my new ipad and ipod touch are synced too. I know i can backup to the cloud over wifi but how can i do things like delete photo albums instead of having to manually delete pictures one by one on the Ipad. Is there any way also to add my pictures to the ipad other than through email. i am assuming that i can't just install itunes on the laptop and sync to that. I have been told that i always have to sync to my original synced home computer for that.

Recently purchased a used IPad 2 but it still has previous owner's data. I've been told not to sync it to my computer as it will cause problems. What do I need to do to make it compatible with accounts on my mac and ipod touch?

You can wipe the iPad's contents completely by going to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings. This will remove all of the previous user's apps, data, settings and so on from the iPad and you can set it up as your own.
