Project File Sync with SharePoint online across time zones

We have a Project file that we have synced with an 0365 SharePoint site. The project teams are working in US Central Time and Vladivostok Russia. The original Project file is set up in Vladivostok time. Users see the SharePoint Task Dates
in their local time. However, when the project manager opens the file in Central Time Zone, the project file automatically reschedules start dates that are on Monday in Vladivostok (which start on Sunday in US Central Time) to non-weekend US Days and
then updates the SharePoint Tasks. If the project manager in Vladivostok opens the file, more auto-scheduling occurs to move Start Dates to non-weekends in Vladivostok.
Is there anything we can do to avoid the auto-rescheduling based on the time zones that will not affect the file if we need to change the Start and Due Dates due to late starts?
Kim Frehe

The level of sophistication that synchronizing to a SharePoint site is minimalistic. This is a very simple collaboration scheme. AFAIK, there is nothing you can do other than to all play in the same time zone, or at least pretend to by observing the offset.
For international collaboration, Project Online would be your best answer. I suggest that you request a 30-day trial, which you can obtain from a Gold partner such as my company.

File Sync with Cloud

I have tried everything, read through all documentation, checked, double checked all settings to no avail and resulting with no file sync.
I have just barely under the 20gig limit up on Creative Cloud, and I have been trying now for a few months to get the sync working, I even tried moving the folder as on my drive it is empty and it then gives you an option to just download everything.
The only thing which could be in conflict is my 'standard download' is set to a different file on the same drive.
neither are on my boot drive which the original Creative Cloud was. It had to be moved, just not enough room on the boot drive.
I am running a win7, (all updates current) on a Gateway quad core (i5 intel graphics) 8gigs ram, 500gig HD, 1.3Terrabyte and 4 terrabyte external drives.
Comcast highspeed connection, and run Norton Security.
Any ideas, methods, spells? would be welcomed, I'm ready to try them.

Hello,
We are going to have to have a look at your log files. Please watch for a private message from me with further instructions.
Thanks.

Why won't iTunes U files sync with iPad?

I purchased free courses (videos) from iTunes U on my iMac, and when I go to sync with my iPad, it gives me an error message that says the files could not sync, iPad cannot read these files. I know it can, they are ".mov".
If I download them straight onto my iPad from iTunes U store, it works fine, until I go to sync after having purchased more of the videos from my iMac. Suddenly they all disapear and it says iPad cannot read the files.
If anyone could offer me some help, maybe this is a glitch with iTunes U?

1, I don't think it's worth swapping the Canon camera for something else only because of this incompatibility. (BTW, which model is it?)
2, I've tested the workflow myself with my Canon G1X and Canon S100 videos, with the above-mentioned ipadfix.py file and directly synching videos imported / dragged to the desktop iPhoto via the "Photos" tab in iTunes. Unfortunately, iPhoto doesn't have any H.264 level adjustment (which would be sufficient) capabilities.
All in all, you can do the following to simplify the workflow: before importing to iPhoto, run the ipadfix.py script to set the H.264 level to an iPad-compliant one. It's only after this that you should import the video to iPhoto. Then, iTunes will happily synch the file from iPhoto to the iPad.
Another option is the above-mentioned QT export, but, as I've pointed out, it WILL degrade the image quality as it, instead of changin a single descriptor byte in the file, recompresses(!) the entire thing.
In addition, also send a request to Apple to remove this absolutely unnecessary limitation, pointing out that a lot of cameras out there (most current Canon models) use H.264 level 5.0 by error, and Apple makes it impossible to synch the videos created by these cameras to iPads absolutely unnecessarily. (They don't allow to synch anything over level 4.1.)

File sync with ovi suite. Disappeared?

The wonder functionality of file sync (any file not only audio-img-video) seems not working in ovi suite.
Is it true?
Many thanks

I guess pc suite supports this ... Maybe you can give that a try

Excel 2010 changes relative link paths to absolute in files synced with Offline Files in Windows 7

Hello! I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this problem: I have a large number of Excel 2010 and 2003 files in a folder on my file server. This whole folder is also synced to my computer using Offline Files in Windows 7. I have a lot of references between
cells in different Excel files, and all referenced workbooks are physically in the same folder. This all works nicely when I create these files at work - all file paths referenced in the cells are created as relative paths and the documents open correctly.
This is, I understand, the expected and default behavior when Excel creates links. When I edit these files at home, nothing seems odd until I get back to work and sync these files back to the file server. At this point, I discovered that Excel 2010 has, when
I saved the files while away from the corporate network, changed /all/ the cell references in any offline-edited Excel files to point at absolute paths, and that these absolute paths point to somewhere in my %APPDATA% structure. So whenever I come to work
and I try to open an Excel file that I have recently worked with offline, I get a bunch of error messages about referenced files that are missing, although clearly they exist in the same folder as the file I've opened, and I must edit all the file references
again, whereupon they are again created correctly as relative paths (since all files exist in the same folder), which are promptly mangled into absolute C:\....\Offline Files\.....\..... paths whenever I save them at home (and since that works too, I don't
notice it again until I come back to work and the offline files are synced back to the real network location). This seems to be a case of Windows 7's Offline Files not being able to fool Excel 2010 into believing it is working on a file server - apparently
Excel 2010 can see through the fakery and decides on it's own to "fix" the problem (which obviously isn't a problem since the paths are relative to begin with) by saving the paths as absolute paths instead. Yes, really clever, Excel. The exepected behavior
according to MSKB is that links are created as relative paths, so why does it change to absolute whenever Offline Files are involved? I know Offline Files only syncs, it doesn't actually change the files, so I can conclude that Excel is the program at fault
here. Is there a fix for this, or a known workaround? Because frankly, this bug makes it impossible for me to work in any advanced manner with linked Excel files. The sad thing is that this worked perfectly fine with Office 2003 and Windows XP. Is there a
patch for this problem that I might have missed (I am running the latest Service Pack and I get Office updates from Microsoft Update). If not, is there a workaround I can use to prevent Excel from corrupting my links when I edit the files offline?

Hello danceswithwindows,

IPhone sync with Outlook fails with sync server not starting

Hi, Community -
Up until a few days ago my iPhone synced beautifully with Outlook 2010 under Windows 7 on Parallels (running on Yosemite, MBP late 2014).
I don't know what changed but I cannot sync the two anymore. I keep getting error messages. Either a Windows error message saying that Mingler.exe stopped working or an iTunes message saying that the iPhone could not sync because the sync server did not start.
I have tried the following:
Reset the sync history
Uninstalled and re-installed iTunes (several times)
Tried to restore to older backup versions (I keep backups of the iPhone backup files)
Synced with other iTunes installations
Restored the iPhone to a state about two weeks old (when syncing still worked)
All to no avail.
The Mingler.exe crash report under Windows gave these details:

(Yes, I know ... I should not expect support on Windows issues here ... but by now I am pretty sure it is an iTunes issue.)
Could anyone please help? I really need my calendar and contacts updated on my phone!
Thanks for any help you can offer.

OK ... I am not going to go into the depths of how a company that makes such nice hardware cannot get its act together to write decent software, too. I'll also spare you my anger on why I need to sync my iPhone on a Mac throgh Windows in order to connect to the most widely used office suite worldwide. I guess I am just disappointed at the inferiority of Apple's software and simply cannot bear the ravings of clueless artsy users who believe they know something about computing because they are proficient Photoshop users. Phew. Sorry, venting ends here and now.
In the meantime I managed to solve the above problem myself. I hope my description is helpful to other users encountering similar issues (and Google tells me there are many).
My solution is based on the rationale that after all steps described in the initial post the problem must lie with iTunes. And it did.
Here is what I did to fix the issue on my Mac running Windows 7 on Parallels:
Uninstall iTunes and, importantly, also all other Apple software (Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support etc.) from Windows using the Control Pannel utility 'Programs and Features'. The interesting thing is that uninstalling all Apple software will not remove all directories involved in mobile sync! I conjecture this is the source of the observed sync issues.
Remove all software registry entries with Apple Inc. and Apple Computer Inc. as author
I deleted entries under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER > SOFTWARE.
Manually remove the directory C:\Users\__UserName__\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\SyncServices\Local
This will result in the loss of all iPhone backup information you have collected in the past. The manual removal of this directory is crucial because it does not get removed automatically in the uninstall process.
Restart Mac OS and Windows (just to be safe)
Reinstall the latest version of iTunes
Reboot your iPhone (just to be safe)
Connect the iPhone and sync it by overwriting calendar and contacts on the iPhone from the Mac (choose the appropriate sync options in iTunes)
These steps worked perfectly for me and I am now able to sync my iPhone with my calendar and contacts from Outlook 2010 again.
Do let me know if this was any help with your sync issues.

RMAN causing "log file sync"

Hi,
Maybe someone can help me on this.
We have a RAC database in production that (for some) applications need a response of 0,5 seconds. In general that is working.
Outside of production hours we make a weekly full backup and daily incremental backup so that is not bothering us. However as soon as we make an archive backup or a backup of the control file during production hours we have a problem as the application have to wait for more then 0,5 seconds for a respons caused by the event "log file sync" with wait class "Commit".
I already adjusted the script for RMAN so that we use only have 1 files per set and also use one channel. However that didn't work.
Increasing the logbuffer was also not a success.
Increasing Large pool is in our case not an option.
We have 8 redolog groups with each 2 members ( each 250 Mb) and an average during the day of 12 logswitches per hour which is not very alarming. Even during the backup the I/O doesn't show very high activity. The increase of I/O at that moment is minor but (maybe) apperantly enough to cause the "log file sync".
Oracle has no documentation that gives me more possible causes.
Strange thing is that before the first of October we didn't have this problem and there were no changes made.
Has anyone an idea where to look further or did anyone experience a thing like this and was able to solve it?
Kind regards

The only possible contention I can see is between the log writer and the archiver. 'Backup archivelog' in RMAN means implicitly 'ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG CURRENT' (log switch and archiving the online log).
You should alternate redo logs on different disks to minimize the effect of the archiver on the log writer.

File syncing not working

I'm trying to sync some projects with CC with no luck so far. It keep prompting error messages for some regular PNG and JPG files I have (More than 100 of them!). The message include a "Contact customer support" link that links to nowhere. I already have those files synced with Google Drive (Which is a free service by the way) with no problem whatsoever. Any clue of what is happening.
By the way, is there a real "Contact customer support" link where I can ask to real support people directly?

Files users sync with OID

The Oracle Files is not Synchronizing with the OID, even after setting OID Sync.agent to 3m instead of 24h.
Whenever i logon to files it gives me "You don't have an Oracle files account"
Any idea why this is happening?

You have recently created a user in OID and are immediately trying to login to Oracle Files using that userid. The error message you get is,
"Error. You do not have an account on Oracle Files"
To get the error;
1) http://host.domain:7779/files/app/AdminLogin
2) Click, "Login using Single Sign-on"
3) Enter the new userid & password to get "Error. You do not have an account on Oracle Files."
The FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgentConfiguration agent is set to 24hours by default, so a new user must wait 24 hours before it will import the user into Oracle Files. You need to create a new Synchronization agent
with a shorter time period:
1) Start EMD, also known as Oracle Enterprise Manager, from the command-line using
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start
2) Connect to EMD at http://hostname:1810 and log in as ias_admin using the same password you entered for the Oracle Collaboration Suite instance when you installed Oracle Collaboration Suite.
3) Click Files. The Files Domain page appears.
4) Click Server Configuration.
5) Click and Edit the FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgentConfiguration,
changing the value of IFS.SERVER.TIMER.ActivationPeriod from 24h to 3m (for a check every 3 minutes).
6) Save FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgentConfiguration.
7) Stop FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgent by clicking on the <server> Node. Now you should now see a list of servers. Click the radio button for
FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgent and click Stop.
8) To load the new Server, then click on the Load Server push button. Enter a new name in the Server Name (ie: OIDSYNC). In Server name field, select IfsDefaultServer from the drop down list. For the Server Configuration Field, select FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgentConfiguration. Then, click OK. You should see a new server named, OIDSYNC.
9) Start the newly loaded FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgent. Do not start
the same agent that you just stopped. Click on the radio button for OIDSYNC, then click on start. Keep the FilesOidSynchronizationAgent stopped.
After a few minutes (when the new FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgent synchronizes
the Oracle Files users with those newly created in OiD) every new user receives an e-mail containing a password.
Once the FilesOidUserSynchronizationAgent has created the users, you can change the ActivationPeriod back to 24h or whatever is your preference.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.
I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

ITunes Library: Keep 2 external HDDs in sync with same music files

I am trying to run iTunes with 2 external HDDs, keeping in sync with each other. One large one for my desktop and a second portable one to take away from home when I need to travel. What is the best way to do this?
What I have done so far is changing the location of my media library via iTunes advanced preferences to the other ext HDD and then consolidating my library, but I noticed that it tries to re-copy the entire library or at least part of it so I end up with music files like:
Back in Black.mp3
Back in Black 1.mp3
I'm sure this has been thought of before and an obvious solution should be available, but I've never been able to find one, so I'd be really glad if someone could tell me how to do this!

How can I make a file server sync with a laptop when it connectsSOLVED

Ok, first let me say that I looked on the Internet for this but didn't find what I was looking for. I'm going to be setting up a simple file server for my in laws soon...they use windows so I'll be using samba on the server side.
They have 3 computers and want to be able to have all there files stored in one central place so they can share them easily and also have them backed up at the same time. They have 2 desktops and one laptop.
The desktops are not a big deal to sync with the server because they are on all the time and I can just use a cron job or something. Then problem is the laptop..
What can I do to make the laptop automatically sync when it gets on the network?
The catch is this needs to be ran from the server side so they have a "hands free" experience or whatever. If you know a way for the laptop to do this in the background I guess that would work too.
I know this is probably a very simple task but so far everything I find the user would have to manually start the sync.
Thanks in advance for you help!

Is it necessary that all the files are on the local hard disks? In the case of the laptop I could understand this if the laptop is also used outside the network, but the desktops should stay in place, no?
It could be as easy as to make a shortcut on all the computers to the samba-share and tell the inlaws that they have to use the samba-share to store their (shared) files.
You are correct about this but I doubt they would remember to use this all the time so I want to sync the folders just in case.
Assuming the laptop is always going to be in the same IP address when it connects to the network (which is unlikely in default configurations), you could create a script that checks for the existence of the machine on the network then perform a sync. I had a script written in Python somewhere that would check to make sure the server side was up and run unison, but it could be modified to check for the laptop and copy files. Let me know if that's something you're interested in and I can post it for you.
This sounds like what I'm looking for. Also I wander If it could be done by NetBIOS name instead of ip address? This way It wouldn't matter.
The script sounds like what I'm looking for though
Thanks for the help!

Can I keep my iCloud files from syncing with my Mac?

I keep all of my photos on an external disk and I just upgraded my iCloud storage to both backup and make my photos available in the cloud. However, my iCloud drive is syncing with my internal Mac drive and I'm running out of room. Is there an option for iCloud files no to sync with my local drive?

The Safari iCloud icon is for iCloud tabs which syncs all of your tabs in Safari between all of your iOS devices and Macs. So basically while you were dragging the iCloud icon into Finder, you were doing nothing. Also iCloud only saves information and files from certain applications such as Reminders, Notes, Messages, Safari, TextEdit, etc. If there are apps that do not natively support iCloud you cannot save their files to iCloud because Apple does not have a feature that can save any file from any app on your Mac. Sorry to tell you this.
Hope this helps,

Working in Lighroom on two computers (synced with Creative Cloud files).

Hi all,
I'm sure this question has been addressed before but I haven't been able to find a relevant discussion on the forums, so hopefully someone can help out.
After I shoot a series of photos (e.g. on a trip or for work) I use Lightroom for my workflow. Rating, flagging, etc. prior to editing (simple edits in LR and then advanced retouching in Photoshop). I have traditionally done all of this on one computer with one LR catalog, and only one computer needs to have a full catalog on it at the end of the day (not both).
Really, the only thing that needs to sync is the metadata (XMP's are fine) and any changes to the original files (e.g. if I edit one in Photoshop). I have a full CC membership at my disposal, as well as things like Dropbox, Cubby, etc.. Here's what I thought about doing, please let me know what you think or if there's a better way in your mind:
1. Create folder on Computer A in the Creative Cloud folder (or Dropbox, or whatever).
2. Import photos to LR catalog on Computer A.
3. Import synced photos to (separate) LR catalog on Computer B.
4. Work on either computer independently, as XMP's and file changes should be synced after working with files.
5. When finished, move folder on Computer A to its rightful place in my albums folder. (Use LR to move the folder so the catalog stays updated).
6. Delete folder/catalog entry on Computer B.
Does this work? If I want to use Lightroom Mobile (sync with my iPad) how will that affect this workflow?
Thanks all!

With the recent update of the Creative Cloud Desktop app (1.9.1.474) we unfortunately introduced a bug which causes the creation of a new Creative Cloud Files folder, and re-sync of all content. This will only occur the first time the sync application runs after the update. This has caused understandable pain and confusion, for which we truly apologise.
The Creative Cloud Files app contains logic that supports the use of multiple Adobe IDs. This allows you to sign out of one ID and in to another, but keeps your Creative Cloud content separate. When you sign out and change IDs, the app moves the previous Creative Cloud Files folder and it's contents and appends it with the previously signed in ID (User@AdobeID). It then creates a new main folder and starts to sync content of the new ID.
The bug which I mentioned previously occurs, as the app believes an ID switch has taken place and as such, moves the current Creative Cloud Files folder and tries to append the previously signed in ID. As no switch has actually taken place it manifests as (Unknown). The app then creates a new main folder at syncs down the data.
Essentially what you end up with is a Creative Cloud Files folder with your newly sync'd data and a Creative Cloud Files (Unknown) folder that contains duplicate data.
This occurs once, after the last update completes.
The fix is to simply delete the Creative Cloud Files (Unknown) folder.
I would advise that you ensure you have no pending edits that you may have made offline and that you check the contents of the new, main Creative Cloud Files folder contains everything you expect it to. If not, check the contents of the Creative Cloud Files (Unknown) folder.
If there is still a discrepancy with your data, you can check on creative.adobe.com to confirm your data is there.
If you have any further problems or questions about this particular issue please email [email protected]
