Getting images to my phone from two computers (Aperture  )?

i am creating Albums in Aperture on my MacBookPro in order to SYNC these images to my iPhone when i sync my phone to my laptop.
i am IMPORTING images to my Mac Pro desktop in order to import these into my Aperture database when i sync my phone to my desktop computer.
i have also recently checked only the PhotoStream option on the Mac Pro desktop so that all the images that i recently imported to the database on the laptop machine can be made available to the iPhone.
the problem i am having is that i would like to keep the image sync from my laptop as this is the computer that i use to backup my iPhone but i would ALSO like to /add/ or SYNC some images to my iPhone from the desktop machine. is there a convenient way to do this that allows the images to stay organized as they do when i use the sync option in Aperture on my laptop?
is this a good time to start using Photos on the desktop machine and have these images synced to the PHOTOS app on my iPhone while i continue to use the laptop to sync images from Aperture?
any help would be really appreciated.

Photos for Mac is still a Beta version. There is not yet a stable, public release. You would have to update to MacOS X 10.10.3 (Beta) to be able to use Photos on your Mac. But the public release of MacOS X 10.10.3 with Photos is expected to happen soon - Apple announce "In spring".
See the preview:  Apple - OS X - Photos Preview
Photos will make it easier to have a shared photos library accessible on all devices. But I would not trust my photo libraries to a Beta release, only test libraries to explore the features before I migrate.
Until you migrate, you might consider to use Shared albums with selected photos. These Shared Albums/Photo Streams will be synced in iCloud and look the same on all devices, see:   iCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ
Added:
The Photos.app will not offer the same control over the organisation of your photo libraries as Aperture had. Re organization it has nothing to offer but Moments, Faces, Places, keywords, favourites, and (smart) albums. It is not a replacement for Aperture as a digital ***** management system. You may not want to  migrate in a hurry, as you invested a lot of work in organising your Aperture libraries. I am setting up a small Photos library for sharing between devices, and are keeping one Aperture library to organize the bulk of my photos. Aperture will work concurrently to Photos, as long as we are using Yosemite.

  • HT1449 how do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

    How do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

    An "iTunes account" is an online account you use for buying music, like a bank account.  An iTunes collection is the media you see when you open iTunes. Which do you mean?
    If it is two computers, it would also help to know where these are located. Are they on the same local network? If they are, try Home Sharing (and you have control of both and you aren't just trying to get music fro your computer to your friend's computer in another state).  If they are not, you'll have to use an external hard drive or flash drive.
    Is this on a PC? Your computer information says Windows but you posted this in the iTunes for Mac forum.

  • Is there any way to work on one Catalog from two computers simultaenously?

    Is there any way to work on one Catalog from two computers simultaenously?
    I have a catalog with 7000 images we have to process / crop / etc. and I was trying to find a way that two of us could work on the images at the same time.
    Thanks!

    No, the LR catalog is not multi user capable (and cannot reside on a network share without tricks). What you could do is
    export part of the catalog (a subset of all images) into a separate catalog ("Export as Catalog", without exporting the negatives)
    work on different images in the two catalogs at the same time
    re-import ("Import from Catalog") the exported work after adjustments on it is finished

  • When setting up sync how does sync manage information from two computers? Does it merge the information?

    When setting up sync how does sync manage information from two computers? Does it merge the information?

    Hi!
    Yes, the way Sync works is that it puts all the Bookmarks together and pushes them to all your devices. Same with History.
    You will not loose any information in any of your computers.

  • [HELP] I use Skype from two computers and i notice...

    Sorry for reposting this topic, but it didn't appear on the forum.
    Hey there.
    I use skype from two computers.
    Last week i blocked a contanct from computer1 and yesterday i unblocked it from the same computer.
    So i noticed that after i unblocked this contact, it still appears at my homepage with his picture, info and everything, BUT only from computer1.
    When i use computer2, this contact appears at my contacts, but only with his skype name (the one he uses to log in) and not with his display name. Also, i can't see his picture or any other information. It just appears offline, with his log-in name and with no picture. That's all.
    So what's going on? Why can i see everything normally from computer1 but not from computer2?
    P.S.1 99% he blocked me too, but i have no idea whether he unblocked me or not.
    P.S.2 I know my english is horrible, sorry for that.

  • How do i get ringtone to my phone from email

    how do i get ringtone to my phone from email

    That would be very difficult, but possible ... you would have to use iTunes on your computer.
    You would have to make sure that:
    *  The ringtone is really a ringtone (correctly formatted)
    *  You own the ringtone (if purchased, it was not purchased by someone else).
    You would email the ringtone to your computer, remove the attachment, and add it in iTunes' "Tones" section on your computer.  Then you would sync it to your iPhone.

  • Working from two computers

    How do folks work from two computers? I use an MBA on the road and out of the office and an iMac at home. Is there a way to sync my site on both computers? Or to download changes to my site onto the other computer? I haven't seen an obvious method for managing the site and keeping it on both computers.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    Aaron ~ I haven't used Dropbox, but it offers file syncing and gives you 2GB of storage free. The problem is that iWeb's Domain file is a single unit, so that even if you change just one character on your iWeb site, the whole Domain file will be re-synced — not just the changed page.

  • Is it possible to sync to/from two computers but only sync from a third (no upload to third/work computer, but download from it)?

    Is this possible:
    Two directional sync (to/from) of history, bookmarks, etc on two computers and only unidirectional sync (from only, not to) on a third? I have sync set up on my work computer and I like knowing my work history when at home or on my laptop, but I don't want all of my home history being sent to the work computer. Is there a way to have a two directional sync between 2 computers but only send history from, but not to, a third computer?
    As it stands now, if someone at work would get on my history it would look like I have been looking up flights and buying things on the internet at work, but I only do that at home.
    Thanks.

    As far as I know, you can only access the iTunes store of the country you are currently in.

  • Sync collection to mobile from two computers

    I have Lightroom installed on two computers and would like to be able to sync both of them with my ipad. However, when I sync a collection from one, it deletes all collections that were synced from the other computer. Does anyone know how I can get it to allow me to sync collections from both computers at the same time?

    You can't do it.
    The restriction is that you can only sync from one catalogue, and I think it tells you so if you try to do what you describe. Obviously it would be good to have more flexibility, and one day it might come, but just imagine the complications (two identically-named collections in different catalogues but with different pictures).

  • How Can I Combine Podcasts from Two Computers Into One ?

    I download podcasts on two computers - my home PC and my work/travel laptop. My IPod syncs to my home PC. What I would like to be able to do is transfer all the podcasts I have downloaded from my laptop to my home PC (as my internet speed at home isn't great), then sync it all to my IPod. Is this possible ?

    Well it works.....sometimes. It works OK with audio podcasts, but not with *.mov video podcasts. It DOES work with *.M4V video podcasts. I found this out by trying to add all the Tiki Bar TV files, and only the Boomerang episode transferred OK.
    The strange thing is this - while the *.MOV vpodcasts don't show up in the Podcast window in ITunes, they DO transfer over and show up in Library>Genre 'Podcasts'>. How can I force them to appear in the Podcasts window ?
    Cheers

  • How to import songs onto iPod from two computers?

    this probably was posted before, but is there anyway to upload songs from two different computers?
    i have songs on my mom's computer that i dont have on my dads.

    Try turning off auto-update. Right click your iPod, and go to iPod Options. Under music, click 'manually manage songs and playlist.' It should work after that. You will probabl have to do it on both computers.

  • Can I swap the CS2 registration numbers from two computers?

    Is there a way to swap two CS2 registration numbers on two computers without reinstalling the whole lot? Thanks!
    Paul

    I'm not so sure it can't be done. I don't remember the way CS2 worked
    but once you deactivate you may be prompted to remove the serial number
    from the machine. Go ahead and do that for both and then reactivate
    entering the correct serial number on the opposite machines.

  • Editing from two computers

    I have an iMac at home that I have been editing and publishing a site from iWeb to .Mac. I now have a macbook and would like to work on pages or blogs with that computer also. I vaguely understand the issue now with the files stored on my iMac and editing and publishing from there.
    If I were to store the files say on my iDisk, could I access them from both computers, edit and publish from both, and keep them in sync?
    Is there another/better method of doing this without actually moving the files from one computer to the other?
    (obviously, one option might be using Back to My Mac, but I would like to work locally if possible)

    You can store the domain file on your iDisk.
    But you have to double-click it to open it. Otherwise iWeb won't find it .
    Depending on the size of the file, expect slow updates. And be prepared that when you loose connection, your file may be damaged.
    But that isn't really an iWeb issue. It applies to all files you edit over a connection.
    All the if suggestions you can easily find out by doing it.
