How do I sync bookmarks from my iMac to my Macbook Air?

I want my Macbook Air to have the same Safari bookmarks as my iMac? How do I make this happen? Does iCloud do this for me?

Yes, iCloud can do that for you on an ongoing basis. Just log into iCloud on each of the computers using your Apple ID and Password, and check the box in iCloud to sync your bookmarks. Tha should do it.
Hope this helps

How can i download keynotes from my iMac to my macbook air

how can i download keynotes from my iMac to my macbook air

Do you mean the application Keynote or projects you have already created in Keynote on the iMac?
If it's the latter just copy the files across the network to the Air. If it's the application itself and you bought it from the Mac App Store you can legally install it on any computer registered to you (I think there is a limit, but I'm not sure how many it is). Just log on to the Mac App Store from the MacAir and download it again - you won't be charged a second time.
Edit: Just realised you may mean keynotes of various Apple events - if so, ignore me . If this is what you want, have a look here: http://www.apple.com/apple-events/

How do we sync iBooks from a iMac to a Macbook?

I have no problem with iBooks from iMac to iOS devices.
But my MBP is being isolated. Books downloaded from iMac doesn't appear in MBP and vice versa.
Have already checked the Sync option in General Preferences.
Is this how iBooks work? Are there any alternatives to make them sync automatically?
OSX 10.9.4

Hello resting,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Check the settings below in your iBooks application, and also ensure you're logged in with the same Apple ID on all of your devices.
If you don't see all of your purchased items in iBooks, make sure you "Show All Purchases" is turned on:
To see all your purchased books on your Mac, choose View > Show Purchases in iCloud.
To see all your purchased books on your iOS device, choose Settings > Books > Show All Purchases.

How do I sync bookmarks from safari on my pc to my iPhone with the iCloud

How do I sync bookmarks from safari on my pc to my iPhone with the iCloud?

Do you have Windows 7 or XP? If you have Win7, install the iCloud control panel for Windows and set it up there (Ignore the fact that it shows IE in the control panel, once you check it off, you'll be able to select Safari).
If you have Windows XP, you don't.

I have Firefox 7.0.1 and it has no bookmark transfer feature that I can see. It used to have a Manage Bookmarks but that seems to have vanished. I am trying to transfer my bookmarks from my Imac to my Macbook Pr0 can you no longer do that?

hello,
It would be 'Bookmarks' > 'Show All Bookmarks' and in the window that appears there is an 'Import and Backup' menu on the top. Click that and then choose 'Export Bookmarks to HTML..'. Now on the other PC it would be the same procedure except for the last, where now you have to choose 'Import Bookmarks from HTML...'.

Question: How do I sync contacts from my iPad to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks?

How do I sync contacts from my iPad to my MacBook Pro running Mavericks?
rbarge

Contacts sync via iCloud.
Set up iCloud on your iPad and your MBP, with the same iCloud account on both, with the same Apple ID.
On the Mac you set this up with System Preferences > iCloud, and have Contacts checked in the box on the right.
It looks very much the same on the iPad, Settings > iCloud.
If you have set this up and it's still not working, then sign out of and then back into your iCloud accounts.

Syncing my iTunes from my iMac to my MacBook AIr

So here's my problem - I have both an iMac (at home) and a Macbook Air to take on my travels. I am very fond of my music and I download, rip and organise all my music to my iMac at home.
What I would like to be able to do is synchronize all my music from my iMac to my MacBook Air. At the moment, the only way I can do this is by importing all my saved music from my external hard drive to my laptop. The problem with this is that it is very time consuming and after all the importing, if I were to add or download another song to my iMac, I won't have it on my MacBook Air unless I manually synchronize it again.
Is there a way that I can set something up where my iTunes on my iMac and MacBook Air synchronize automatically? If there is - it would be amazing.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Andy.

How can i upload music from my ipod to my macbook air?

hi, how can i upload music from my ipod to my macbook air? thanks.

Try this.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
However it appears that no playlists or any other info such as ratings/last played etc will transfer.
If this is important to you, you may want to use other options.
There's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod to iTunes.

How do I import photos from my iMac to my MacBook Pro ?

Hello !
I would like to import an album created in iPhoto from my iMac to my MacBook Pro.
I would like the photos to appear exactly on my book as they are organized in my album on my iMac.
Any suggestion/idea/advice would be more than Welcome !
THANK You !

Ah so the question really isn't about moving albums but how to restore something you deleted by mistake from one of your libraries.
If you had actually asked that question then you probably would have gotten better and more to the point responses. In addition the need for backups would have been mentioned at some point.
You got lucky this time. Being 'more careful next time' is really not a good backup stratergy
You should take two things away from this, one ask the question that actually deals with your problem and two start a good backup program right now! Next time the trash might be empty.

How do i sync music from old imac to new iphone?

I synced Handels music cd to old imac and nano. Then I bought new imac and new iphone. Never did migration. The new iphone is synced with new imac. I lost the Handel cd and I wanted to get the Handels music onto my new iphone. I want to transfer handels music from old imac (or old nano) to new imac or new iphone. Is this possible?
Thanks for any input.
Tim

You cannot transfer it directly to the iPhone, but you can copy the music to the new Mac. If they are on the same network you can drag the folder containing the music from the old iMac to the desktop on the new Mac. Then on the new mac drag and drop that folder onto iTunes in the dock bar. If they are not on the same network copy the folder to a data CD on the old Mac, then put the CD in the new Mac and drag the folder from the CD to iTunes.

How can I copy my CS4 InDesign from my iMac to my Macbook Air

I need to have a copy of CS4 InDesign which is on my iMac, on my new MacBook Air. Is it possible to do this and if so how?

Never try to migrate from one computer to another computer, this will not work.
I doubt that CS4 will run without problems, so you should consider to subscribe to the Creative Cloud.
If you will try to install it, make an image file with the disk utility of all installer CDs, copy it on an USB stick, mount these installers and install it from there. But you are on your own.

Sync Default Keychain Between iMac (10.6) - MacBook Air (10.8)

I want to sync the default keychain between two of my computers:
iMac running 10.6.8
MacBook Air running 10.8.4
I understand that keychain syncronization was a feature of MobilMe but it is not included in iCloud.
I've searched the Internet and found several authors who say that it can be done using Dropbox, sometimes with symbolic links, for example:
http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/mac/syncing-keychains-between-macs-using-dropbo x/1743
http://myownapp.com/manuals/tutorial_keychain/
Unfortunately, apparently (at least) 10.6.8 is very picky about the location of the default keychain, the one that opens automatically on login. Apparently, the default keychain file must be at ~/Library/Keychains/ and symlinks do not fool the system into believing that it is there when the real file is actually in a Dropbox folder.
Here's what Keychain First Aid Version 4.1.1 (55004) says when it finds a symlink pointing to a keychain file in Dropbox (as opposed to finding the acual file itself):
Repair started
Checking keychain configuration for nello (user ID=502)
Home directory is /Volumes/User/users/nello
Checked login keychain
Checked password for ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
Checked settings for ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
Checked default keychain
Default keychain is set to ~/Dropbox/Sync Computers/Keychains/login.keychain (instead of ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain)
Default keychain set to ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain
Warning: to use the passwords stored in “login.keychain”, you will be required to manually unlock that keychain. If this is not what you want, use the Keychain Access application to copy those items into “nello”, or delete the “login.keychain” keychain.
Checked keychain search list
Keychain search list not properly configured
Checked contents of ~/Dropbox/Sync Computers/Keychains/login.keychain
Problems successfully repaired
Repair completed
Apparently default keychains (that open automatically at login) must be located at ~/Library/Keychains/
Does anyone know a way around this location requirement?
Or does anyone have another idea of how to keep the default keychains on two different Macs in sych?
Thank you for your time and attention.

I'd seen Keychain2Go mentioned in the Apple Discussion forums.
I did some searching and Internet reviews sounded good so I downloaded it and read the help files. My understanding from this is that Keychain2Go requires the Keychain's password. Apparently, it decrypts the keychain entries, encrypts them with it's own method and shoves them in a database. It appears to synchronize by comparing two databases over an encrypted channel (on a local network only) and then adding/modifying/deleting from local/remote the Keychain(s) as necessary.
Giving my Keychain password to a 3rd party application makes me nervous. Perhaps I'm paranoid but I'm not comfortable with this.
The search continues.
