How can I sync all files in 2 Macs using local network only?

I am looking to equip a small office with 2 Macs, iMac and MBAir. I would like for all files to be synced (either automatically, daily, or worst case, on demand). The trick is that this has to be in the local network only, as these are sensitive files. There will be a QNAP NAS on the network as well if it matters.
Maybe it is possible to setup both Time Machines to look at the same folder on the NAS? Any ideas on how to make this possible?

Here are three ways to do it. None of the ways is automatic:
(1) Get an Acrobat.com account, and copy your files via Acrobat.com:
http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-3440
(2) If you have a computer with iTunes, and you're syncing your iPad and iPhone to this computer, your PDF files already exist on the computer. In iTunes, select the device. Then go to the Apps folder, scroll down to the File Sharing section and select Adobe Reader. All your PDF files are shown and you can save the ones you want to your computer hard drive. Then import them in a similar way via iTunes.
(3) Use a Dropbox account. Install Dropbox on both your iPad and iPhone. Copy the PDF files via Dropbox.

    If the hard drive that crashed is the one that stored the itunes library, be sure to restore the library from Time Machine (mac) or whatever backup you use on windows.  That will get back your music.  I suspect that the replacement drive has an empty itunes library and thus, perhaps, the itunes match used that to sync to its servers.

    If you open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utiltiies > AirPort Utility and click Manual Setup, are you able to access the settings for the Time Capsule?
    Or, does AirPort Utility scan for the Time Capsule and then not find it?

    Syncing the 3GS is exactly the same as syncing the 4S - so just do the same as you've been doing.
    How do you normally sync contacts from your Mac to your iPhone? Via iTunes over USB/WiFi, or via iCloud?

  • How can I sync text files into iPhone?

    How can I sync text files into iPhone? like doc. txt. for reading or editing

    The native iPhone OS doesn't allow that. I think there are several solutions to this, some of which may be against the AT&T or Apple rules. One legitimate solution is The Missing Sync for iPhone by mark/space (http://www.markspace.com).
    Before I had an iPhone, I owned a copy of The Missing Sync for Windows Mobile. It was a pretty decent app. In my opinion, though, their app for the iPhone is NOT worth the price ($40 new, $25 for a cross-grade).
    Also, check the App Store (if you have 2.0 software)--there may be an app that does this, probably for a lot less $.

    HOW CAN I SYNC ALL MY CONTACTS FROM MY IPHONE TO ICLOUD?

    Go to Settings>iCloud, sign in with your Apple ID to create your account if you haven't already done so, turn Contacts on and choose Merge with iCloud when prompted.  If you are syncing contacts from an external account (Gmail, Yahoo, exchange, etc.) you will need to take additional steps to add them.  Let me know if that's the case.

    Yes.  You can sync everything that is currently on your iPod Touch to your newer one. Just plug it in and sync it like you did with the old one.
    If you want to retain your App data, see this article for information on backing up your current iPod Touch and restoring the backup onto a new one.

    If you purchase the iPad, keep in mind that some Apps may not be compatible with it.

    How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad, How can I transmit PDF files from my Mac to my iPad

    Yes you can definitely do this. You'll need an app on the iPad that handles PDF viewing and editing. There are many around - two of the best I've seen are GoodReader and PDF Expert.
    In iTunes when you iPad is connected to your PC, go to the Apps tab and scroll down and you'll see the File Sharing section. You can drag files to there to share them to your iPad.
    You could also look at online file sync services like PDF to ePub Maker if you prefer not to have to connect your iPad to a PC

    how can i convert video files from my mac to watch them on my iphone?, how can i convert video files to watch them on my iphone?

    Turns out the answer to that question changes if you ask it more than 4 times, so ask it again....
    The answer depends on the type of video files you want to convert.  If they are DRM protected commercial videos, no help can be given here.  Google.

  • How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?

    The .DS_Store file is normal. It holds certain settings related to the folder it is found in. Removing these files is futile, as they will come back, as you have observed.
    If you are seeing them on your Mac, that means you have changed settings so that your Mac is showing invisible files in the Finder. To reverse that, run the following command in the Terminal:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO
    This will hide them, and any other invisible files, from view.
    If you are seeing them on a Windows machine, just ignore them. They're not doing any harm.
    If you found a Terminal command that is supposed to stop them from being created, I would be extremely skeptical as to the wisdom of running it.
