How to compare and sync 2 folders or entire disk drives?

Hi
How should I go about comparing and syncing entire drives or folders? I have looked for programs that would do this as it dosnt look like tiger does it, But none of the programs seems to be well documentet or ub writen (im on a mbp).
I dont whant to use automator as Im not familiar with it and I whant good control over wich parameters should be used to compare (date ceated/modifyed and so on).
Is there anyway to do this in tiger natively or will leopard do it?
The solution needs to be reliable as this is data I cant recreate, but to much data to compare each folders manual.
I really hope you guys can help asap

My biggest problem is none of those programs lets you compare 2 folders and tell you what the difrences are. I need to go over alot of folders and some I dont whant to sync some I do. some folders will have difrent names but exact same content. for those I need some program that compares the 2 folders and not just syncing the overall wich would just copy the one folder to the other as I would apear difrent.
Disk order is the program I so far have found that seems to be able to it, only I cant get it to it and I havnt been able to find any documentation on the program. So any alternatives would be great.
Hope I made myself clear and understandable

  • Is there a way to create folders on one iPad and sync the folders to multiple iPads?

    Is there a way to create folders on one iPad and sync the folders to multiple iPads? I have 23 iPads and I want to have all the folders match for easier access for students.

    Here is a possibkle workaround, assuming the iPads are all starting out with the same initial content on them:
    Backup that iPad to each computer you will be using. Then restore from the backup (only takes a couple minutes). Then rename the other 22 iPads.

    Yeah. It is called System Status.
    Check out this application on the App Store:

  • How do you eject a cd stuck in your disk drive??

    how do you eject a cd stuck in your disk drive??

    Force eject a stuck cd/dvd
    First try the normal methods to remove the disc. Drag its icon to the Trash can in the Dock or select 'Eject' from the File menu.
    If you are running a virtual machine, e.g. VMFusion, ensure that the CD is disconnected from the virtual machine. This will sometimes allow the CD to now show up in Mac OS X.
    Shut down the computer and start up whilst holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared.
    If you have Toast Titanium installed on your computer, choose EJECT DISC from the menubar.
    Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder
    Open Disc utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button.
    Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism.
    Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray.
    If your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button.

  • Compare and sync iPhoto library with other folders

    I have several folders of photos from a defunct Windows pc, some of which are in the iPhoto library, others not. Is there any way of comparing the contents given that is is impossible to view the iPhoto library in Finder?
    I have SyncFolder and would ideally like to sync the folders and library.

    I have several folders of photos from a defunct Windows pc, some of which are in the iPhoto library, others not.
    Import them to iPhoto with the doe no import duplicates checked?
    is is impossible to view the iPhoto library in Finder?
    No it is not impossible - it is not advised and is not supported but is certainly not impossible - however It is not at all clear how viewing the photos in the finder helps you in this
    The key is that you must NEVER make any changes to the structure or content of the iPhoto library using the finder - it is not impossible to view things with the finder
    However this means that you can not use programs like SyncFolder to make change to the content of the iPhoto library - if yo do that you will corrupt yrou library
    In the end you probable nee dto import them and then purchase iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -  and use it's duplicate finding capability

  • Multiple devices, one iTunes, how to transer and sync properly

    I have a complicated question.
    I recently purchase a new iphone and ipad.  I now have 3 devices, personal iphone, work iphone and an ipad 2 (which has not been synched yet).
    My personal iphone is connected to my personal computer, a PC.  My PC has my entire music collection connected to but is stored on an external hard drive. 
    My work iphone is connected to another computer, a mac book pro. This has no music, some media files and all the applications for my work iphone plus some photos and videos I use for work.
    As I stated, I have not hooked the ipad 2 up yet.
    I want to transfer the itunes library from my PC to my mac but keep it on the external hard drive for portability and safety as I travel with the mac and would prefer to keep the library, photos and other content sperate.
    I want to know the best way to transfer the library, have the mac point to the hard drive and then sync all 3 devices but not load all the content on each devices.  The personal iphone should only have music and personal photos while the work iphone should remain the same as it is today with only work phots and no mucsic.  The ipad can contain everything.
    Is there a way to have each device synch seperately but all link to the same itunes on the mac via an external hard drive.
    Thank you.

    I can not even see the device after I decline the option to erase and sync with the other devise.  Sorry, I am a bit techno challenged.  Can you help with a blow by blow?
    much appreciation.

  • Backup and Sync Network Folders

    Hello - I have a simple question that I am hopeful someone can help me out with.  We have a shared network folder that is approximately 750 GB in over 50,000 folders and we need to back this up to a hosted cloud drive.  Does anyone have any suggestions
    for the easiest way to synchronize and backup our local network data with a hosted solution?  We have numerous employees accessing the data remotely, so real-time data synchronization is preferred.  Please help!
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Windows Server Backup only supports backing up to external and internal disks, optical and removable media such as DVDs, and remote shared folders.
    The simplest way is to use OneDrive. OneDrive (formerly called SkyDrive) is free cloud storage that comes with your Microsoft account. It’s like an extra hard drive that’s available from any of the devices you use,
    so the files you save there are always with you.

    You could also use Windows Azure Online Backup. Windows Azure Online Backup is a cloud-based backup solution enabling server data to be backed up and recovered from the cloud in order to help protect against loss
    and corruption.

  • How do I save to individual folders on my hard drive?

    How do I save items to individual folders on my hard drive? When I try now it shows the Macintosh HD icon as an option but not the individual folders I've created there. I think I need to go in to Automator but I must be doing something wrong. I selected "Folder Action" then added several items about PDF
    documents and add photos to album. I've specified Macintosh HD as the location and hit run.
    It appears to have run correctly because it asks me if I want to save the results. A friend of mine runs several web sites. He has asked me to serve as his off site backup so I'm trying to download several years of material. Saving everything to the HD and then dragging each item to where it belongs will take forever.
    I'm hoping someone can help.
    Thanks Bill

    Press the blue button with the triangle in the Save dialog box.

  • Is it possible to install and use Firefox in a local disk drive D: ?

    A desktop computer with Windows XP, Professional Version and Service Pack 3. The browser is Explorer 8 and the search engine is Google. There is very little free space left in local disk drive C: and the browser Google combination is painfully slow.
    The computer also has a local disk drive D: which has only recently been formatted as NTFS with about 18 GB of free memory.
    Can I use this drive D: to install and operate Firefox ? Drive C: is probably the default drive in the installation process and the question is can it be altered to drive D:, if so how is it done. How much memory does Firefox use after it is installed.
    Any direction and advice would be appreciated to use as much of drive D: as possible with a Firefox Google combination.
    Thank you for considering this post.

    If you would install Firefox on the D:/ drive the vast majority of its files would end up in /Documents and Settings/ on the C:/ drive where the operating system resides.
    Firefox Portable will keep all its files together, where you install it.
