How to setup new sync when other devices not avaliable

Firefox Sync creates a nice circle which you cannot get out of when you try to setup Sync and you don't happen to be sitting next to your other device. When you click "setup Sync" -> "I already have an account" it then presents you with a key to use on one of your existing machines to add this one (no machine nearby), so I click on the link "I don't have the device with me" which then asks you to sign in with your username and password and provide a sync key from an existing machine! DUMB. I suggest some way on the Sync Website to add the sync key for the new machine there or something. I don't happen to be home with my other machines, and am trying to setup a new machine. I do NOT want to setup new sync info!

Hi Madskiier,
My suggestion is to copy the Sync key and take it to the other machine with you. You can carry it on a USB memory or send it by email.

  • How to setup new site in dreamweaver if not working with Local Site Folder?

    Dear All,
    I am working with a website design (wordpress) project with a group of people, since we are working together on the same design, our developing site is not located in the local folder but on remote server, but I can't setup the website in DW if the developing site is not located locally.
    Is there any way to do the development on remote server with DW, and what will be the site setup setting for it?
    thanks for any reply.
    bruce

    Sharing a "Local" site is a recipe for disaster vis-a-vis file versioning.  The best way to avoid these problems is to have three locations defined:
    1.  A local site (truly local to your computer, although it can be on a network, shared drive).
    2.  A staging site (this would be the intermediate holding site for partially finished work.
    3.  A production site (this would be where the final versions of files are pushed).
    Enable DW's Checkin/Checkout facility.  Each of you would checkout files from the staging server, and when finished editing, checkin those same files to the staging server.  Thus, you are not sharing a local site - you are sharing a remote file repository, which is your gold standard source for version protected files.
    Make sense?

  • How to restore new iphone when ios is not compatible

    Greetings.  Trying to set up new iphone 5.  Backed up iphone 4 (old phone) with icloud.  In going through the set up process with iphone 5 (new phone) I am stuck at the "choose backup".  It is not allowing me to select the most recent back up because "No iCloud backups are compatible with the versin of IOS (6.0.1) on this iPhone).  Any suggestions?   Thanks.

    You will have to setup as New, then re-install your content from your iTunes Library or re-downloading: Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store.

  • How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices

    How can I sync my iPad to a computer after syncing it to the iCloud? I have the option of setting it up new, or restoring to a sync from many months ago. I dont want to lose any apps but I would like to back up on computer. No auto sync like other devices.

    Plug it into your computer. Tell it to sync with "this computer" instead of iCloud. You shouldn't have to remove any apps. Otherwise, you can save the app data by using i-FunBox ( http://www.i-funbox.com/ ) just go to the "devices" tab and select 'user applications' and select all of your apps and tell iFunBox to "copy to pc" you're done! You have them all backed up.

  • My Iphone 5, was backed up and restored.  Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option.  Can anyone help please?

    My IPhone 5, was backed up and restored.  Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option.  I have reinstalled ITunes but still this hasn't worked.  Can anyone help please?

    This problem started last year when ios 8 was released. I think apple is trying to force users to buy music on iTunes store and that's why it's impossible to sync other music and also that's the reason why they haven't solved this serious problem. That's really disappoints me and i'm angry with apple because i have like 10 gb of music in mp3 and i can't sync music from iTunes to my iPhone.

    Very simple.  Turn off Find my iDevice, then  Tap Settings, General, Erase, Erase all content and settings.

  • Notes on iPhone5 not syncing to other devices nor to iCloud in the "On My iPhone" account.  How to fix?

    I have not been able to sync my existing Notes on my iPhone4S to other devices, nor to my iCloud account.  On the iPhone4S, I see I now have two Notes accounts: "On My iPhone" and my Apple ID account.  All notes in the Apple ID account sync as they should.  None of the "On My iPhone" notes sync at all.  Seems to have started with the upgrade to iOS6 but not sure.
    I have all devices on current software as of 12-12-12, all settings for iCloud and Notes have sync'ing enabled.  I've sync'd with iTunes, backed up to my computer, disconnected, shut down, and cold-started the iPhone4S.  Any suggestions to get these notes sync'ing most welcome.

    Basically what your looking at in on the Accounts page of the Notes App is where you are saving the notes. On this iPhone, notes are saved on this iPhone and don't sync to other devices. You say you see an account for your Apple ID. I don't know what you mean cause I've not seen that. I do have an iCloud account that syncs to other devices and I created the account in Settings > iCloud > Notes and I was prompted to create the account. If that's what you mean by Apple ID account simple copy and paste the notes from the On this iPhone account to the iCloud account to sync across your devices
    Hope that helps

    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if it is connected to the Internet by Wi-Fi or cellular.

  • HT4199 how do I fix it when "another device is using computer IP address" and I can't get wireless to work anymore? It used to work fine.

    How do I fix it when "another device is using computer IP address"? Airport used to work fine. I've already tried turning everything on and off several times.

    I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
    Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
    Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
    Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
    Power-up your computer(s).
    If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
    Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
    While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
    After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
    Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
    Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
    In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

  • MacBook Pro won't sync with other devices

    My MacBook pro won't sync with other devices in the house.  My iPad and iPhone sync OK but MacBook won't for some reason.  Can you help?

    Sign into your account in iTunes - from that page you should be able to deauthorise ALL 5 authorised computers - supposedly you can do this once a year.
    Thereafter any devices you no longer have will be deauthorised, and you can reauthorise those you still have or are new.

  • 1 How to setup new company name   2 How to setup row, rock and bin

    Hi,
    Anybody who can help me how to setup new company.
    And also how to setup row, rock and bin because we need to assign a location for our spare parts inventory.
    Thanks in advance.

    Row/rack/bin sounds like an inventory system. For a simple system you might want to build your own from scratch, but for even a mid-sized company you really want a shrink-wrapped solution -- i.e. Oracle apps or SAP.
    You don't want to be figuring out how to model material transactions, move orders, etc. Nor do you probably want to dive into various cost accounting options.

    if i purchase a device through this official website,then how can i send warranty when the device have problem?

    To purchase a device from the online US Apple Store you will need a US credit card with a valid US address and a valid US address to ship to. You cannot use a shipping forwarder.
    If you are in a different country you would have to return to the US to access your warranty.
    If you are in the US but not near an Apple Store you would start here for service: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do

  • TS3988 My ipad don't sync with other devices

    My ipad don't sync with other devices. It works in my iPhone, IMac. At iCloud web page is ok also, but not in my IPad. The settings are the same in both my IPhone and my IPad.

    Make sure you are using the same Send & Recieve address on the iPAa as you are using on the iPhone (and that it is an address registered with your AppleID).
