HT5826 how to sync pdf file between iOS and mac

I tried to sync pdf files stored in iBook on my iPad with the iBook on my iMac, but not all the docuemnts are viewable in iBook on iMac and viceversa.
Which is the reason?
Please let me know
Thanks
Luca

I suspect that you haven't synced your iPad with your Mac. iBooks does not "push" new additions to its library automatically, like iCloud does; you must sync your iPad, either with a USB cable, or over WiFi, to have the PDFs sync. Make sure the PDFs are selected in iTunes too.

Here's how to sync your Notes between iPad and Mac

This is not immediately obvious and took me several conversations with various AppleCare techs before I finally got the solution as to why my notes on my iPad where not syncing to my Mac Pro. The problem seems to be that you can't sync if you only have Notes on your iPad. You must have notes on your Mac to which unlike Calendar and Contacts don't have corresponding standalone applications, iCal and Addressbook, respectively. Notes exist within Mac Mail. I only had Notes on my iPad and none on my Mac Pro. In this event here's what to do to get setup and syncing:
SETUP:
1. Go to System Preferences on your Mac > MobileMe > Sync > and make sure Notes is checked although, syncing via the cloud apparently won't happen until iOS 4.2.
2. With Mac Mail launched, if you've never created a note in Mac Mail, in the left column you should see:
MAILBOXES
ON MY MAC
RSS
or if you've created some notes on your Mac Mail, you'll see:
MAILBOXES
REMINDER
- Notes
ON MY MAC
RSS
The key is you have to have REMINDERS created. So if you don't have it created, when you sync your iPad and Mac, the iPad doesn't know what to do as there's no "receptacle" for it's notes on your Mac.
So in Mail, in the top of the window create a new Note, click the notepad icon to the right of the New Message.
Now REMINDERS will be created in Mail's left column with this new note. You can simply put "Test" or whatever and click "Done" in the upper left of the Note's window.
3. Plug your iPad into your Mac, in iTunes, in the left column click your iPad under DEVICES the Info tab in the top. At the bottom of the page is "Other" > click: Sync notes. Do NOT click the checkbox "Notes" in the next section under "Advanced"
4. Click "Apply" at the bottom of the page and your iPad and Mac will begin to sync. It may take awhile as I believe it is doing both a sync and backup.
Once this process is done, you'll see your notes fully sync'd on your iPad and Mac. Yea! but there's more...
5. Notes created in Mac Mail show up in 2 places: your MAILBOXES > Inbox and under REMINDERS > Notes, and if you delete the Mac Mail note in your inbox, it deletes the note in your REMINDERS.
This is unfortunate and not great interface design IMHO and should be remedied.
Luckily the last Tier 2 AppleCare tech I just spoke with had a workaround for this, which is:
6. Create a new mailbox inside Notes under REMINDERS. Click Notes, then go to Mailbox > New Mailbox... in the top of your monitor screen.
Under the location pulldown it should show a notepad icon and On My Mac.
For the Name, I called my new mailbox "iPad Notes" Then click OK.
Then a triangle appears next to Notes mailbox to access this new subfolder (iPad Notes) and you then drag your now sync'd notes from Notes under REMINDERS to your "iPad Notes" subfolder under Notes. Now your left column will look like:
MAILBOXES
REMINDERS
-Notes
--iPad Notes
ON MY MAC
RSS
Doing this drag to "iPad Notes" will remove the note(s) from your inbox, but keep it in your REMINDERS and thus be available for Syncing, which currently can only be done with your iPad when plugged in via USB to your Mac.
Apparently, in iOS 4.2, you'll be able to use MobileMe to sync Notes just like Calendar and Contacts. We'll see.
I hope this is helpful. It took me awhile to get all this set up, and being that I am not an AppleCare tech, if you have questions instead of asking me, I recommend you call AppleCare and review with them. Let them know I got the above info from Tier 2 support.
Once iOS 4.2 and Lion come out, all this may, hopefully be a simpler process, but as of this writing, pre 4.2 and Lion, this is now working on my iPad and Mac Pro.
Good Luck.
Steven

Thanks ,,, but when I "Go to System Preferences on your Mac > MobileMe > Sync > and make sure Notes is checked"
I CANNOT check the "Notes". It is NOT highlighted. MAYBE because I am NOT logged-in to mail.mac.com?
Is this why my Sync Notes between MacBook Pro and iPAD 2 does NOT work?
How do I fix it?
Also I continue to get Error Message "smtp.mail.com" password not accepted.
I DO NOT know my mail.mac.com password.

How to sync pdf files in iBook on Mac to iBook on iPad/phone?

I used to easily move pdf files I created on my Mac to my iPad by using iTunes to sync them as books. But now books are separate from iTunes (as they
should be), and iBooks doesn't sync my pdfs to my iPad. I've done it using Dropbox as an intermediary, but this involves lots more steps... Am I missing
something? (Yes, I seem to have the sync content options enabled both on the Mac and the iOS device.)

From iTunes Help Menu this worked for me
Add iBooks and audiobooks to iPod, iPhone, or iPad
You can download iBooks to your computer and use iTunes to sync them to your iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad. You can also use iTunes to sync audiobooks to your iPod or iOS device.
Hide
Sync iBooks or audiobooks to your device
Connect your device to your computer and select your device in iTunes.
Click the Books button.
Do either or both of the following:
Sync iBooks: Select Sync Books, then click “All books,” or click “Selected books” and select the iBooks you want to add.
Sync audiobooks: Select Sync Audiobooks, then click “All audiobooks,” or click “Selected audiobooks” and select the audiobooks you want to add.
Click Apply.

How do I synch pages files between iOs and mac

I have an iMAC as well as an iPad and iPhone. I recently purchased Pages for both the Mac and iOS and would like to have them all synch'd so that I could sit down in front of any device and have my work show up automatically on all devices. This seems straight up the Apple's alley with the iWork beta site and iCloud. But here's the problem.
Sharing my workfrom my iMac sends the information to th enew iWorks Beta.
When I save my documents in the iOs pages apps it goes to the icloud storage...
So is there a way to get the ipad to save to the iworks site or the iMac to the icloud storage?
Seems so easy so I MUST be missing something.
Thanks!

Actually After posting this (on the right side of the screen) I see that it refernces a discussion entitled" Not quite as advertised? iCloud pages". It explained my issues in depth. Unfortunately, there is nothing to do about it for now. We are all waiting for an update :-(
Thanks for the quick reply!

How do I synchronize files between PC and MAC?

I have Adobe Illustrator installed at work (PC) and at home (MAC). I would like to be able to work on the same AI file from work and home.
I created a file at work and saved it to the Creative Cloud folder.
At home, I was able to synchronize the file folder content and work on the file.
The next day at work, I created another file. This time, this file did not synchronize to the CC folder at home. The CC dashboard in Assets/Files section says all files are up to date.
I disabled the CC synch on the MAC, then re-enabled it. This seems to have recreated a couple of files on the PC side. The CC folder on the MAC still does not show the new files.
What am I missing here?

I found the solution here ->Re: Creative cloud doesnt create a cloud folder on my Users Folder?
The following solution worked for me. I guess the MAC side didn't have proper permissions
derekajack Jul 28, 2014 5:48 AM (in response to StilesAjax)
Hi,
Please try the following workaround:
MAC
1. Quit the Creative Cloud desktop application.
2. In Terminal, copy and paste this command:
rm ~/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/CoreSync/options.tix
3. Launch the Creative Cloud desktop application and start syncing.
WINDOWS
1. Quit the Creative Cloud desktop application.
2. Open the Start menu, and type 'cmd' in the search box, then enter to start a command prompt.
3. Copy and paste this command at the command prompt:
del %APPDATA%\Adobe\CoreSync\options.tix
4. Launch the Creative Cloud desktop application and start syncing.

Possible to sync PDF/ePub files between iOS and Mac App?

I have some ePubs and PDF books I'd like to stay in sync between my Mac and my iOS devices.
If I drag/drop a book into my iBooks application, it doesn't appear anywhere on my iOS device. Same result if I were to sync a PDF/ePub to my iBooks iOS app.
Are they only suposed to stay in sync with purchases made from the store? Is there prerequisite stuff that I need to do to keep the two Apps in sync?
Am I missing something?

Anyone???

How to sync LR files between desktop and laptop

I would like to be able to upload and edit photographs from either my desktop (nice big screen) or laptop (portable).
I was under the impression that I could do this via CC's cloud storage, but it seems that LR's catalogs are stored in a different location file structure that the CC folder (which seems to be just a dropbox clone). A google search reveals a number of strategies for syncing between two PC's but they appear to be written in the pre-CC days. Those that appear to be more current seem to focus on syncing between a PC and your iPad (LR mobile).
Is there a way to store all my photos in the cloud, and have them sync'd between two Windows computers such that LR (or Photoshop) changes made on either machine are sync'd with the other machine? I.e., I have a single, consistent working environment regardless of which computer I'm sitting at?
Thanks...

Is there any way to sync POP mail between iOS and Mac devices via the cloud?

The title says it all. I have Comcast email and would like to keep three devices in sync with email like I do with calendars and contacts. I use an iPad, iPhone, and a Mac Mini and am having a hard time configuring the three to stay in sync. It seems that a .me account is needed for cloud email, which I have, but that only seems to send via the .me outgoing server. So, while a .me account can retrieve the POP mail, it doesn't send outgoing mail correctly for me. Maybe it just isn't possible.

When I send mail from my mobile devices, it comes from my .me account. Same for my mac. But, I don't care because no matter which email the recipient responds to, I get the response.
I use my .me account now as my primary account, but I have a ton of folks who still use my cox account as my primary email address. Most don't even know which account the email is being directed to.

How do I sync a PDF file between iPhone and iPad in iBooks?

How do I sync a PDF file between iPhone and iPad in iBooks?

If the PDF supports it then you can try opening the PDF in iBooks on your phone and use the 'share' icon (the square with the upward pointing arrow) to email it to yourself (some PDFs a protected and don't support emailing) and use 'open in' in the Mail app on your iPad to copy it to its Mail app.
Or you can connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy it over to your iTunes (that should copy PDFs and/or epubs that are in the iBooks app, not just ibooks) and if using a Mac with Mavericks or Yosemite on it then do File > Move Books From iTunes in its iBooks app, and you can then sync it to your iPad.

Can I sync PDF files between my iPhone and iPad?

Can I sync PDF files between my iPhone and iPad?

Yes, and we will have integration with our Mobile Readers as well. We've already submitted to Apple for review, and will be live once they complete their review and approval.
With this, we'll allow you to share files pretty easily between Desktop, Tablet and Phone across all OSes...and when you make changes, we'll automatically bring them to and from your phone/tablet! Pretty cool.

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.

Sharing files between users and macs

My husband and I share an iMac. I have a MBA for traveling and my husband a PC laptop (though he rarely uses for private stuff). We both have iPhones.
We are looking for a way to:
- Share our photos (we don't use iPhoto) and some files. We would like to have this in one shared folder, that we can access from both accounts in the iMac, the MBA and ideally (though not a must) the PC and iPhones. We would both need to have admin rights to edit documents, etc.
- Have access to all the information in my account on the iMac from the MBA. Ideally, same thing for his and the PC.
- Have access to all the data remotely when traveling.
- Have all the data backed up locally (we already have a cloud backup, but we'd like to have a local backup too as it's easier and quicker to access)
We have read a lot about configuration, NAS, time capsule... but we get more and more confused, as we are obviously no tech experts.
Dropbox is not our preferred choice. We already have a cloud backup system. We'd rather have the files stored and accessed locally for everyday use.
Using a NAS to store shared folders and backup the rest sounds good, but they either seem very complicated to set up, or they have mixed reviews in terms of stability, especially to access files remotely.
Timecapsule seems easier and more straightforward, but I'm not sure it would solve the "sharing files between users and macs with admin rights"? It seems to be more focused on backing up the main drive and then providing access to the backed up files. (Though I might be completely mistaken!)
We just can't manage to have one shared folder between both accounts in the iMac. We need to grant admin rights document by document. We don't manage to make it work automatically so we both have one folder to access with full rights for all the contents inside it. And this seems to me like something that should easily be done...?
Any help, advice, proposals... would be greatly appreciated!!!

Move any file you want to the other user to access to the Shared Folder. Anything you put in that folder is available to all users.
The shared folder is here:
Macintosh HD > Users > Shared

Does anyone know if there is a way to share files between Mavericks and Mac OS 9.1 operating system?

Does anyone know if there is a way to share files between Mavericks and Mac OS 9.1 operating system? When I try to connect from my iMac I get a window that says "The version of the server you are trying to connect to is not supported." Is there a work-around to this problem or is it just not possible? It would be largly appriciated for a solutin beings my business is a small town newspaper, and we have some important files on the older computer that need to be acessed daily.

Actually to share files between OS 8-9 and OS X, all versions, is quite easy from what I read. Look here for some details.
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20003464-263.html
And here.
https://www.google.com/search?q=file+sharing+Mac+OS+9.x&oq=file+sharing+Mac+OS+9 .x&aqs=chrome..69i57.20706j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
Or since both OS 9 and OS X can do SMB Windows sharing you could use that protocol to share files from one to the other.
Doesn't really matter what OS you are using. Mac OS/OS X shar files with Windows computers of all types and versions of Windows so the same applies for the different versions of Mac OS/OS X.
Each Operating System takes care of reading and writing files to there respective file formats of the hard drives so that does not have to be the same. They both just have to be able to do Ethernet with the same files sharing protocol.

I had formatted external HDD as Mac OS Extended(journaled) earlier, but now i want to format the same as ExFAT so that i can copy files between PC and MAC. But it is giving 'Can't unmount' error while i try to run Erase

Use the PC to reformat the drive.
