I'm trying to understand SYNC. How do I know if my addons I add to one computer or another are sync'd and not deleted when syncing occurs.

Maybe the question has been answered, but I havent seen an answer in a way I understood.
I have two or three computers I regularly use. I've been with Firefox for years - probably since version 3. Over time I've downloaded old standby add-ons like the popular AdBlock Plus and FireGestures to the more recent add-ons like Pocket and Fox-To-Phone. I've tried to maintain consistency between computers for the by manually downloading the add-ons to each computer. But I havent always been consistent, especially when I download a background program like Sareaholic or something else I dont often use, I kinda download it and forget it. I may later end up realizing "oh I got such-and-such on that other computer, not this one" and so my experience with each computer is unique.
Hence, the beauty of Sync: A take-it-with-you, consistent browsing experience across the board. Am I right so far?
But now I'm confused, especially about pairing, where one computer is added to another so they become linked (ie. synced) in an effort to have the entire browsing experience consistent :
1) I think I'm going to lose addons. And whatever else I sync because Sync will treat one computer as primary when the pairing process occurs.
2) What do I pair to what? If I set up the Sync account on computer #1 and later on while sitting at computer #2 decide I want to include it in the sync account and so I initiate a pairing, is computer #2 going to lose it's addons in favor of computer #1 or is it the other way around?
I guess here's a good scenario. Lets say my computers have the following addons:
ALL COMPUTERS: AdBlock Plus, Firegestures, LastPass
and each computer has the following addons:
#1: AdBlock Pop Up Addon, Download Helper, Pocket, Price Blink, X-notfier
#2: AdBlock Pop Up Addon, Pocket, Shareaholic, QuickFox Notes
#3: Download Helper, X-notifier, Shareaholic, Fox-To-Phone
My sync account was set up on computer #1.
?? What can I expect from initially setting up syncing?
?? Once computers are linked, what can I expect when I download an addon or one computer or another?
Thank you.

Hi
Here are a couple of tips as a starter. Choose a piece of music with strong accents. It doesn't necessarily have to have a big drum beat but should have strong hits or musical accents.  To start the edit off, choose sync points from your footage to edit to the musical accents. Then fill in the gaps with other footage.
That should get you started.

  • How can you transfer "my settings" for track instruments from one computer to another?

    I am trying to transfer garage band recordings from laptop to desktop - the real instrument tracks have been adjusted manually and save as "my settings". How to I transfer those settings from my laptop to my desktop. The recordings show up but not with the settings.

    Your personnal software Instruments are stored in the Instruments Library in your User Library.
    For example, I have custom Choir settings stored in in a file:
         ~/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/Track Settings/Software/Synth Textures/riffyrifftest.cst
    Copy the instruments in  ~/Library/Application Support/GarageBand/Instrument Library/Track Settings
    to the corresponding folders on your desktop computer and install them there,
    Regards

    P.S. is your profile signature current? Otherwise, if you are unsing Lion or Mt. Lion your user library may be hidden.

  • HT1178 How can I use Time Capsule to move music from one computer to another?

    I want to move all the music I have on my old laptop (macbook) to my new macbook pro. How can I do this? Easy, simple, steps would be greatly appreciated!

    Are you moving the itunes library?? That is entirely different to moving just music.
    Apple have specific instructions for moving libraries..
    And there is no need to use the TC.. other than as a switch and router.. share the folder in one Mac to copy to.

  • New Notes deleted  when synced to iCloud

    When I add a new note on my Macbook Pro, the note is deleted as soon as it has synced with iCloud. Adding the note again results in duplicates on my iPhone.

    It's always a good idea to backup first. I just saw this today you might want to check out. I'm not affiliated with nor have I tried this. It does have a demo.

  • How can I change my primary account on iTunes from one computer to another computer?

    I opened an iTunes account years ago when I had a Dell, and after the Dell crashed, I got a new Macbook and authorized the mac to play all my iTunes music and whatnot that I had bought on the Dell.  I don't want this computer to just be "authorized", however.  I would like to know how to set this mac as the primary computer so that I can then authorize 5 additional computers to play my music.  Does anyone know how to do this or have a phone number for Apple to get in touch with someone who can do it for me?  Thanks very much!

    Open iTunes on your Mac, click "iTunes Store" on the upper right, then click "Account" on the middle right.  Sign in there.  That will make the signed in account the "primary".

  • How do I export/share print templates from LR4 on one computer to another LR4

    I want to make special print templates for a client on my desktop production machine and somehow have those available on my laptop, too. Any way to do this? Sort of an Export? (Not images, just the template(s).)

    Yep, if you right-click on a template in the Template Browser panel, you'll find an export option.  Or if you want to do a load at once, use the Show in Explorer / Finder option in that same right-click menu.

  • Trying to take songs from one computer to another

    I am using iTunes on one computer with three ipods. My mother has a laptop and she wants to put all the songs from my computer onto hers so she can use her ipod on her laptop instead of using mine. I searched online to see how to do it and was told to plug ipod in and click on enable disk use, then I went to my computer and dragged over the artists and songs from my music to the ipod. I then plugged the cord for the ipod into my mothers laptop and dragged each artist into itunes under music. When I tried to eject her ipod it said it was in use so I just left it in. When I had plugged it in a box came up that said that the ipod could only be used on one computer so if I wanted to use it on this new computer I would have to delete it. I thought that's what I was supposed to do so I pressed delete. I went through the songs and took out ones I didn't want and then synced her ipod. I took it out and when I go to play a song that is listed under music in the library it says it can not be found. It only works when I have the ipod connected. My father wants to use the laptop as well and I don't understand what happened. Did I mess it up when I pushed delete? Should I take everything off her ipod and then redo it all on my other computer? I really don't understand. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please e-mail me at [email protected] and put something in the subject line about itunes or ipod so I won't delete it. Thanks so much

    Although an iPod can be used in disk mode, it is easier to move songs from one computer to another using a USB flash drive.
    When the songs are on the computer where you want them, add them to the iTunes library on that computer, and then you will be ready to sync the iPod.

  • How do you move adobe acrobat XI pro from one computer to another?

    how do you move adobe acrobat XI standard pro from one computer to another?

    Hi jeszamom,
    You'll need either the installation media (if you bought from a retailer), or a downloaded installer. If you don't have the CD, you can download Acrobat from this links in this document: Download Acrobat products | Standard, Pro | XI, X - Adobe.
    It's OK to keep it on the other computer; your license allows you to install it on up to two computers. But, if you'd like you can deactivate it on that old computer, which would free up that activation for use on yet another computer. Please see Activation & Deactivation Help - Adobe
    You'll need your serial number to activate on the new computer.
    Please let us know how it goes.

    Make a smart playlist of your whole library but only checked songs - #4 on  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1801
    Highlight all files in that playlist, then drag to the other drive.  This isn't preserving any playlists or whatever, just copying files from one drive to another.
    You might want to delete the smart playlist this once you are done because it will probably gobble up resources with that many files.

  • When using Firefox Sync on multiple devices, I used to be able to 'send' a tab from one computer to another. Is this still possible? If so, how?

    When using Firefox Sync on multiple devices, I used to be able to 'send' a tab from one computer to another. Is this still possible? If so, how?
    I don't mean the ability to see what tabs are open on another device (I know how to do this). But if I am at work and find something that I want to read at home, it would be helpful to 'send' the tab to my home PC so that when I return home, it will automatically open that tab for me.

    Can anyone help?

    Try going into your account details on iTunes, change your info there, then sync your devices.

    I bought a new computer and I cannot transfer my library to this new one. The message says that I'm not allowed to sync with two computers??? How can I delete the previous one from my account???

    You cannot transfer from the iPhone to the computer.
    You must move the contents of your old computer to the new one directly.
    Use an external hard drive perhaps or restore your old computer backup to your new computer.
    The iPhone is not the source of your data, that is the computer, the iPhone is only a slave device to iTunes.

  • My original Ipad is dead and won't charge at all. I've tried numerous chargers. How do I know if the iPad is "broke"?

    My original Ipad is dead and won't charge at all. I've tried numerous chargers. How do I know if the iPad is "broke"?

    Aside from taking it in to a certified Apple Repair shop, this may be a sign that it is dead.  Or there could some kind of damage to the connectors on the charge port.  I am guessing on that part because I am assuming that the other chargers you have used work for other devices.  It may be time to look into buying a new one if it is dead.
