How to Share content between Tiger & Leopard

Hi Everyone
I didn't know where to post that question so I placed it in both Tiger & Leopard Discussion.
Here it is :
My wife just got an Iphone 4 although she was aware of the non compatibility with Tiger.
She Intended to get the 3GS, but she was offered the same deal for the 4 so she went for it.
Now she has an Iphone 4 AND wants to stick to Tiger for her work.
How can we fix that?
I was thinking of installing Leopard on another partition so she could switch to it whenever she needs to sync her Iphone.
Since she's going to use that partition for only 5% of the time, Is there a way she can to associate her adress book entries, photos, music ,from these 2 partitions . In other words, Is there a way she can update an AdressBook entry in Tiger and have it be replicated/updated on Leopard's partition.
The Idea is , so whenever Itunes is syncing the iphone, it goes and look into these folders where the content is shared by both system.
Does that make any sense?
Thanks for your inputs

I'll probably stick with the initial idea and Install 10.6 on her G5's second disk
If it is a G5, 10.6 won't work, 10.5.x is the latest they'll ever run.
wonder what are the other Tiger/Iphone4 users doing ...
Most are trying to go 10.5.x at least...
Mac system requirements for iPhone 4...
http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
* Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
* Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
* iTunes 9.2 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
* iTunes Store account
* Internet access
Leopard requirements/10.5.x...
* Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5, or PowerPC G4 (867MHz or faster) processor
minimum system requirements
* 512MB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* 9GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
You have to call Apple & likely ask for a Product Specialist to get it, if they still have it!
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 2GB at least)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

  • HT1203 iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer - I tried to use the instructions to configure 2 different windows users sharing the same iTunes library.  I could not get this to work per the instructions.

    I tried to configure 2 windows users accounts using a single library per the instructions in HT1203.  My iTunes library is on an external drive.  I cannot get this to work.  Any suggestions?

    To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support article linked below.

    It is almost as if the program does not exist on my computer. If I search for it, the only thing that comes up is the installer. I cannot find it anywhere despite the fact I have installed it numerous times, uninstalled it and conducted a fresh install, and the Adobe website checks says that it is installed.

  • How to place content between header and tabs?????

    i have header part which has to be constant through out the portal but below that i have 3 links
    like I AM employee,employer,broker..
    which has to be shown only in home page above tabs..
    how can i achieve this..
    how to place content between header and tabs..:(kindly help..

    Hi Samiran
    Try these approaches and see if that works.
    1. In the Header Section, you header footer shell and add a Header Portlet. This Header Portlet associated JSP file will have all static content in the top section. In the bottom section, add these 3 links say to right hand corner. Show these links only based on some request property like isHome. Now for the main book having Home and other page associate a BackingFile. Within this backing file in the lifecycle methods like preRender or handlePostBack, get instance of BookManager and all the pages and see which page is Active. For that active page check its page definition label which will be always unique. IF the page def label is like home_page_def (this is page def label you give for home page), then set the key value in the request property like isHome=true. By only doubt is after Book backingfile is triggered, the header has to be reloaded, because only then it can pick up the request attributes.
    2. Create a brand new portlet like HomePageLinks portlet. Make its Title Property Not Visible, and other user interface properties like NoBorder, NoTheme etc. The associated JSP will have the 3 links you mentioned right aligned. You can use css styles to make it right etc. Now drop this portlet in the Header Shell area. You already have HeaderPortlet in the top, below that you will have this HomePageLinks portlet. Now associate a backing file for this Portlet to show, only if the Books current active page is Home page by comparing the def label etc as mentioned above.
    In both scenarios, only concern is when we click on different Pages, the entire portal has to be rendered right from the Top Header. Only then the backing file will set the key, and the HomePageLinks portlet can show or hide accordingly.
    Try firing an Event when the Home page is clicked. This listener for this Event can be the HomePageLinks Portlet. I guess Event mechanism should work irrespective of where the portlet is placed. In the event listner, see if you can show/hide this portlet.
    The only challenge is Header section needs to reloaded everytime you click on a Tab.
    Start putting some backing files and System.out.printlns to see if the Header section gets reloaded on click on any Tabs.
    These are just my thoughts over the top of my head. Other forum users can have better alternatives or a different version of above approaches.
    Thanks

  • How to share files between computers and TC

    What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
    I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
    Thanks

    What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
    The simplest way to do this would be to enable File Sharing on both Macs.
    On each Mac....
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Sharing
    Enter a check mark next to File Sharing
    Now when you open the Finder or Macintosh HD, you will see the "other" Mac and you will be able to access files/folders, etc. on the other computer.
    I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
    The Time Capsule was designed to work with the Time Machine application to back up your Mac(s). As such, the TC will make a complete copy of each Mac on the first backup and backup any changes after that to keep a complete timeline of each Macs files. Each computer normally will only be able to access the backups for that given computer.
    While it is possible to store normal files or folders on the Time Capsule disk, this is not generally recommended as there will eventually be a struggle between Time Machine and the files on the disk as the drive begins to fill up. The other thing to keep in mind is that access to the drive for "normal" files will be quite slow.

  • How to share files between pc and mac via external hard drive

    how can i share my files(mp3,mp4,documents) from my harddisk with mac. i am a new mac user and i have a harddisk of NTFS format(as i was a pc user).I learned that mac supports FAT32 format and therefore i can't write data on my external hard drive.
    but, reading a section of OSX yosemite(under compatibility) it is said that now we can easily share files between pc and mac.
    So please suggest me easier way that how can i share files between macs and pc as my friends uses pc and in future i really want to share my data with them without any hustle and i dont wanna loose my data in future

    You can format the HDD to a common one like ExFAT or Fat32 but a reformat will delete all data off of the HDD.
    Your other option is to use a third party software such as Paragon or Tuxera that will allow you to write to a NFTS formatted HDD.
    Ciao.

  • How to read content between xml tags?

    is there any way to read the content between xml tag

    > is there any way to read the content between xml tag
    Yes. Are you having some sort of problem? If so, please be a little more explicit about what you're doing, what you expect to happen, and what you actually observe.
    Please post a short, concise, executable example of what you're trying to do. Don't post the actual code you are using (I can't emphasize this strongly enough). Just write a small example that demonstrates the problem, and only that. Wrap the code in a class and give it a main method that runs it - if we can just copy and paste the code into a text file, compile it and run it without any changes, then we can be sure that we haven't made incorrect assumptions about how you are using it.
    Post your code between [code] and [/code] tags. Cut and paste the code, rather than re-typing it (re-typing often introduces subtle errors that make your problem difficult to troubleshoot). Please preview your post when posting code.
    Please assume that we only have the core API. We have no idea what SomeCustomClass is, and neither does our collective compiler.
    If you have an error message, post the exact, complete error along with a full stack trace, if possible. Make sure you're not swallowing any Exceptions.

  • How to share app between a MacBoo Pro,an iphone 5 and an iPad?

    When my boy download a new App one the iPad, it automatically appear on my iPone. How it's working?
    Is there a way to share things between the MAc, the iPad and the Phone? Is there a way to save App on my MacBook Pro? Or  save my boy iPad's musics on my Mac? I don't now how to use iCloud is it with that?
    Thank you.

    That happens because in Settings>iTunes & App Store you have Apps turned on under Automatic Downloads.  If you don't want this, turn this off.  This can be configured on your iPad too.

    That's what iTunes is for.  Download purchased apps and music to your iTunes library (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519), and import music from your CDs to your library, then sync the iPad and iPhone with iTunes to transfer what you want.  You can also configure Automatic Downloads on your Mac by going to iTunes>Preferences>Store.

  • How to share Internet connection from Leopard to iPhone 3G?

    Hi!
    How do you share Internet connection from Leopard to iPhone 3G?
    So far I've managed to create a network and I joined my iPhone to the network. But when I turn on Internet Sharing from Leopard, iPhone's Safari won't use the connection. It either starts to use EDGE/3G or says that it isn't connected to the Internet...
    What went wrong?

    I have managed to get it work, but only when I completely turn my desktop computer's firewall off. To do this, select the Security icon in System Preferences, then click the Firewall tab. Next, select the 'Allow all incoming connections' option. I wish there was a way to configure individual ports so that I didn't have to leave my firewall wide open, but I haven't figured out how to do that so far.

  • How to share programs between users on same machine?

    I'm sure there is an easy answer to this and as a proud five year Apple user, I'm kinda embarrassed to ask. But now that I am sharing a computer with new fiance, I need to know!
    How can we share software between users on the same machine without downloading it under each user?

    The difficult question isn't sharing programs (which almost always are shared by default) but how to share data. In particular, music in iTunes, photos in iPhoto, videos in iMovie, they all resist sharing because those apps were not designed for it. In general, to share data you can use the "Shared" folder. Go to your home folder, and go up a level to Users, then select Shared. You might want to drag it to the places list on the left in the finder so you can get to it easily. You can put your iTunes and iPhoto libraries in Shared. To select the shared versions, hold down the Option key while launching iTunes or iPhoto. Video files can also be stored in Shared, however iMovie seems to be hard connected to an individuals Movie folder.
