How to sync two computers with two different languages (english, german) without having entries like "Recently Bootmarked" in both languages?

On a PC i have Windows 7 in running in German, and Firefox also in german. My MacBook Pro is running in English, so Firefox also does.
When Firefox is syncing, both language phrases are synced. The English version adds "Recently Bootmarked" and "Recent Tags" ... the German Version adds "Kürzlich als Lesezeichen gesetzt" und "Kürzlich verwendete Schlagwörter". These entries are the same, only language sensitive.
How can i fix this?

Hi Carolyn,
Thanks for this.
Do you think there is any way to get the content of the libraries onto one account?
Would home sharing work just to facilitate the movement of the tracks?
Thanks again!

  • HT202213 how to sync an ipad with two libraries

    How do I share my itunes library between 2 devices?  Dragging the music over to the device isn't doing the trick...

    Not quite sure this is what you are after, if not you'll need to explain further.
    Sync iPod/iPad/iPhone with two computers
    Although it isn't possible to sync an Apple device with two different libraries it is possible to sync with the same logical library from multiple computers. Each library has an internal ID and when iTunes connects to your iPod/iPad/iPhone it compares the local ID with the one the device normally syncs with. If they are the same you can go ahead and sync...
    I have my library cloned to a small 1Tb USB drive which I can take between home & work. At either location I use SyncToy 2.1 to update the local copy with the external drive. Mac users should be able to find similar tools. I can open either of the local libraries or the one on the external drive and update the media content of my iPhone. The slight exception is Photos which normally connects to a specific folder on a specific machine, although that can easily be remapped to the current library if you create a "Photos" folder inside the iTunes Media folder so that syncing the iTunes folders keeps this up to date as well. I periodically sweep my library for new files & orphans with iTunes Folder Watch just in case I make changes at one location but then overwrite the library with a newer copy from the other. Again Mac users should be able to find similar tools.
    As long as your media is organised within an iTunes Music or Tunes Media folder, in turn held inside the main iTunes folder that has your library files (whether or not you let iTunes keep the media folder organised) each library can access items at the same relative path from the library folder so the library can be at different drives/paths on different machines. This solution ensures I always have adequate backups of my library and I can update my devices whenever I can connect to the same build of iTunes.
    When working with an iPhone earlier builds of iTunes would remove any file not physically present in the local library, even if there was an entry for it, making manual management practically redundant on the iPhone. This behaviour has been changed but it will still only permit manual management with a library that has the correct internal ID. If you don't want to sync your library between machines on a regular basis just copy the iTunes Library.itl file from the current "home" machine to any other you want to use, then clean out the library entires and import the local content you have on that box.

  • Connecting two computers with two routes?

    Yes, can I hook up two computers, each with a different router on one phone line?  I hope this makes sense.  I have one main computer hooked up to a wireless/wired router and the one in another room I want to hook up to the internet also.  Do I need another router for that other computer?  The distance on the wireless does not reach to the other computer.

    Here are my educated guess(es) :
    Perhaps you could..
    #1 use a wireless extender?
    #2 use a wireless bridge?
    #3 convert the second router into a hub/switch/wap?

  • Question about upgrading to Mountain Lion on two computers with two different users

    I am running Lion on my MacBook Pro, and I intend to get the Mountain Lion upgrade. Someone else in my household has an aluminium iMac running Snow Leopard, so I was wondering how to upgrade that computer as well, considering that it has a different user with a separate Apple ID.
    Can I open App Store and log in with my own ID temporarily to download the update? Or can I save the bandwidth and login-switching and burn an extracted installation disk image to a DVD and put that DVD into the iMac to upgrade from 10.6 to 10.8?

    Yes you should be able to upgrade all the Macs you control in your home (including children at college) from one downloaded copy of Mountain Lion.  Just make sure you make a copy of the installer before attempting to install it on the first system, as the install process deletes the installer when finished, so you want that copy before the install starts or you need to download it again.
    You can make an installer DVD, or you can copy the installer to the other Mac(s).
    Also large capacity USB thumb drives are dirt cheap theses days (assuming you do some on-line shopping <http://dealmac.com>).  DVD is fine as well.

  • How to sync 2 computers with MobileMe Calendar on web...

    Hello.
    I have recently realized that when I update my iCal calendar on my mac air(running snow leopard), my other computer (G5 power pc running leopard) does not update, and neither does the MobileMe calendar on the web(me.com/calendar).
    I believe I used to have them all synced up. How can I check that all my settings are correct.
    For me, it is a little confusing. I do remember a lot of trial and error with lots of apple discussions help to get these all synced originally.
    thank you!!
    alex

    alrighty then. =)

  • How do I sync two ipods with two different IDs on the same computer?

    How do I sync two ipods with two different IDs on the same computer?

    Simply connect them.  One computer with one iTunes can manage multiple devices.  They're tracked by S/N but you might wish to assign them unique names so that you can track them yourself.
    The only minor issue is app updating and purchases while on the computer.  It's necessary to log out and back in to the "correct" ID.  Much easier to do these things from the iPods.

  • How do i link itunes between two computers with different Apple ID's

    how do I link itunes between two computers with different Apple ID

    You need to set up two user accounts on the mac.  System Preferences>Users & Groups.  Then each user can set up apple IDs for itunes and icloud any way they want.

  • Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

  • When setting up sync how does sync manage information from two computers? Does it merge the information?

    When setting up sync how does sync manage information from two computers? Does it merge the information?

    Hi!
    Yes, the way Sync works is that it puts all the Bookmarks together and pushes them to all your devices. Same with History.
    You will not loose any information in any of your computers.

  • Syncing iPhone music with Two computers is not happening

    I had the iPod touch and sold it in anticipation of the iPhone. On the iTouch you could sync it perfectly with two machines even three or four.
    My beef is that the music libraries can't be read or added to from more than one computer. I work in a recording studio and am always adding songs from different computers and this feature is crucial. What I always loved doing was plugging in my phone to my home computer and listening to my days work through its speakers. This is very frustrating as every time i want to add a song from home i have to erase all my songs on the iPhone. PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK!
    Does anyone know a work around for this?

    I'm having this problem with purchased ringtones. Unaware of the fact that you can only sync iPhone from only one computer, I purchased several ringtones on another of our authorized computers (same account) while I was literally in another state. When I tried to add them to my iPhone, I got the message telling me my existing iPhone ringtones would be deleted/replaced if I proceeded, so I didn't. Now I have purchased ringtones sitting on a computer that can't be used on the only iPhone I own. This seems an irrational policy.
    Since there is only one purpose for ringtones, you should be able to 'add' them to your iPhone when purchased on any of your authorized computers - you have paid for them after all. Is there a way to export them from one authorized computer to another (the one you normally use to sync your iPhone)?

  • Why the **** can I only sync my phone with one itunes program. Perhaps I have two computers with music on them that i'd like to add to my iphone,ipad,itouch,ipod. Fix this please thanks.

    Becasue that is the way the ****** iphone is designed.

    There is nothing to ****** fix.
    It is the ****** design of the iphone.  It is ****** by design.

  • Happy Holidays.  I have Adobe Actobat 7.0 Standard for quite a while, and I'm happy with it. I use it for mainly filings at the federal court.  They require PDF.  I use two computers in two different states for work.  I realize my Adobe 7.1 is a few years

    .  I have Adobe Actobat 7.0 Standard for quite a while, and I'm happy with it. I use it for mainly filings at the federal court.  They require PDF.  I use two computers in two different states for work.  I realize my Adobe 7.1 is a few years old, but sometimes I have difficulty using it with the other days downloading a boarding pass, and e filing at the USDC. .  There's a problem with Adobe Flash, media, etc.  and other Adobe programs, (which I use for downloading boarding passes for airlines, etc.) so basically I have to delete these other Adobe programs, besides the Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard if I want to 7.0 Standard to work.  I periodically download the updates, but there's still a problem. My question is:  Can or should I purchase another program to update the present Adobe Acrobat 7.0 standard, or just buy a new program such as the Adobe 11?  Am I mistakenly doing something wrong, such as when I download?  I'm an old valued customer so I don't want to spend a lot of money since I am replacing my Dell XP for a new computer now, and my other computer is a Dell Vista.
    I'd appreciate your valued advice.

    If you are getting a new computer (for a PC it would have Win 7 or 8), then you will need to purchase XI if you wish to continue using Acrobat. Acrobat 7 is not compatible with these systems (and probably the same for MAC systems), though sometimes workarounds are possible, though not easy to use. I guess the answer is to buy the new version. Try http://www.adobe.com/products/catalog/software._sl_id-contentfilter_sl_catalog_sl_software _sl_mostpopular.html, click on the Buy for Acrobat, and then select the version you want.

  • HT202213 I have two computers with home sharing on, but I can't transfer music. What do I do?

    I have two computers with home sharing on, but I can't transfer music. What do I do?

    What do you mean by "won't pick up the songs"?
    You can only sync with one iTunes library. However, you can manage mauic and videos among different computer by:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    You can transfer iTunes purchases to a computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

  • Two iTune Accounts in Two countries with Two computers

    Okay,
    I have been buying and using my iPod with my Canadian account and the Canadian Music Store. I do alot of work in the US and have a US account in the US Store. I bought the "Lost" series and a few songs on the US account while setting up my new iPod Video 30GB. But the video that I bought on my canadian account is not authorized to play now that I bought on the US account.
    How can I do this? I buy and do everything legally but I want to be able to share my legally bought music and content between two computers and two accounts, any suggestions?

    Of course. If you have XP, you can create two user accounts, each with a different library, or make use of the Smart Playlists.
