Is it possible to sync Lightroom and LR Mobile between two desktops?

I have an Ipad, iPhone, Mac and Windows 7 PC. I can sync LR Mobile between the iPad, iPhone and Mac OR between the iPad, iPhone, and Windows 7, but LR will not let me sync between all four. Whenever I open LR on my Mac after syncing with my PC, it says that I either have to switch catalogues (which then deletes all of my mobile collections) or stop syncing that machine altogether.
It seems like it should be possible to have a catalogue on my PC and then download my collections from LR Mobile. Can I do this?

Is it possible to check whether this functionality is in the roadmap for LR? I would love this feature - I have LR installed on 2 Windows machines and would like to sync my photos (and edits!) between these. It may be possible using Dropbox or similar service but it feels like this should be built-in to CC.

How do we sync contacts and calendars (ONLY) between two iCloud accounts, two iPhones and one iMac with two user accounts?

This is complex. Until today we had one iMac with two user accounts - one for me and the other for my wife. We sync'd our calendars and contacts between our two user accounts using my iCloud account, thereby keeping our schedules coordinated and our contacts information always the same between us. Also, as I had an iPhone, I sync'd my phone with my iCloud account, thereby keeping the contacts and calendars in the two user accounts on the iMac AND my iPhone sync'd. (I also sync'd other things, like Notes and Mail and Safari settings, between my iPhone and my user account on the iMac, but my wife did not want to be burdened with all my emails showing up in her email account and I wasn't interested in hers, etc., so we didn't sync anything between us other than calendars and contacts.)
We've finally bought my wife an iPhone and set up an iCloud account for her. And of course she now wants to sync several items from HER account on our iMac to HER iPhone, but I don't want them, just as she doesn't want all of my other stuff. But we still want our mutual calendars and contacts to sync to HER new iPhone, just like they already do to mine. But I can't figure out how to CHANGE her iMac user account from using MY iCloud account on the iMac to using HER new iCloud account, and then having HER iCloud account speak to MY iCloud account but share JUST our calendars and contacts.
Originally I tried a workaround by simply having her iPhone log into my iCloud account. That works great for the calendars and the contacts. But...she can't sync anything else from her iMac account to her new iPhone because she's presently "forced" to use my iCloud account. And neither of us want to sync our other things to each other's iMac accounts or iPhones. Also as we're both using my iCloud account, in things like the Find My iPhone app, the Cloud is seeking two phones labeled with my name and none with her's. So we definitely don't want this as the set-up and communications network between our devices.
We want to set up our users on the iMac to sync to our SEPARATE AND DIFFERENT iCloud accounts and then have those iCloud accounts sync calendars and contacts (ONLY) between themselves, and then push that data to our separate iPhones (or the other way, from either of our iPhones to the individual accounts on our iMac and the other person's iPhone). Does this description make sense to you? I've diagramed it nicely using Keynote, but even thiough I can draw it, I can't figure out how to set up and configure all the devices to make it work. If you would like me to send the Keynote slides (just two of them - the current and desired configurations - please send your email address to me at [email protected] and I'll be happy to forward it to you.
If anyone can help me set this up I'd be most appreciative! Thanks so much. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all readers in this community!

I had the same problem, and decided to look into it last night.
First of all, the solution I would like to have is for Apple to allow for selection of iCloud accounts per application, i.e. Contacts to one, Photo Stream to another. I believe this would be the most straight forward solution for the problem we are facing.
Since this is not an option I came up with a workaround. I was most interested in solving this for Contacts, so this is what I tested for. Now I have all 3 devices with the same contacts.
1) Turn off iCloud for Contacts on all devices. On the device that has the Contacts list that you would like to propagate to all others select to keep the contacts, and on the others select not to keep them.
Note that the current backups still exist on iCloud, so in case something goes wrong you can still turn the iCloud for Contacts back on to get your current Contacts back.
2) In iTunes, sync All Contacts with the phones, starting with the one with the Contacts content you chose to keep.
From this point on, the 3 devices should sync contacts with each other.
This, of course, will stop your iCloud backups of Contacts, but I don't think this is really needed. You are already storing copies of your Conacts on 3 devices, which for good parts of the day are likely not all co-located. You also potentially have Time Machine backups turned on, which would mean there is a 4th copy there as well. For the case of Contacts iCloud only complicates matter ... that is until Apple implements the solution I first wrote about.

Is it possible to sync my mail folders/boxes between Mac mail and iPhone?

Is it possible to sync my mail folders/boxes between Mac mail and iPhone? ie. I get an email on my iphone but I also read it and store it On My Mac folders. Is there a way this can be set up 'same' on my iphone...then I would only need to read my mail one place? Same as my iPad...I'm tired of doing the same step 3 times ONLY because my folders are only on my MAC

IMAP is a mail protocol. Your email provider must support it (most regular ISPs do not). If your mail provider supports IMAP then when you create an account on the iPhone choose "IMAP" when prompted. You cannot convert a POP3 account to IMAP; you must delete it and re-create it. But first check to see if your provider supports it. Microsoft Exchange works similarly to IMAP, but has the added feature of "pushing" mail to your phone within seconds of it being received.
With IMAP and Exchange the master copy of all mail remains on the server until deleted. Your computer(s) and iPhone sync with the server, so all of your devices will show the same messages. When you delete from one the message will be removed from all with the next sync (or immediately for Exchange).

sync is about synchronizing network calendars. Simply create a network calendar and synchronize it on multiple machines and forget local calendars.

Can I put my library on an external hard drive and use it between two computers?

Can I put my library on an external hard drive and use it between two computers? I have two MBP; I will refer to one as computer A and to the other as computer B. I would like to be able to plug in my external hard drive, boot up iTunes, and if there were any changes made to the library previous to its last time accessed on this compluter, they show up on that computer, regardless of being imported on the other.
A hypothetical example: I import three albums called 1, 2, and 3 on computer A over a week or so. I take the external hard drive and plug it into computer B. The entire library which was visible on A, is visible on B, including albums 1, 2, and 3.
Is this possible? If so, what files need to be copied onto the external? I'm trying some different combinations, trial and error basically. Hopefully someone knows and can answer before I mess up my library. I also want to do this to free up space on my computer. All importing will be done from disc.

iTunes/Preferences/Advanced : point your iTunes to the new location of the Library.
Set "Share on local network" in the Sharing tab, and you or everyone on the local network can play your music.
You make a backup first of the Library.
Move the follwing to the new location:
/Users/your username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music
have fun.

Working and moving photos between two open libraries?

I'm not sure if it is possible, but can you work in and transfer photos between two open libraries at the same time? It is more an organizational question...i.e. I want to have some photos only appear in a particular library...

nk3:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can only have one library open at a time but with iPhoto Library Manager (in the free mode) you can transfer 20 photos at a time between libraries and keep keywords, comments, etc.

RE : Drag and Drop operations between two outlinefields

Hi,
Has any one tried the drag and drop operations between two Outline widgets ina
window.Any help appreciated.
Thanks
balsubHi Balsub,
Here are some lines which can help you :
First of all, your 2 OutLineFields must be in a draggable state.
In the event loop of your window, you have to listen to the event
ObjectDrop
on the 2 OutLineFields :
When Self.<MyOutLine1>.ObjectDrop(SourceX = SourceX,
SourceY = SourceY,
SourceField = SourceField,
TargetX = TargetX,
TargetY = TargetY,
TargetField = TargetField) do
When Self.<MyOutLine2>.ObjectDrop(SourceX = SourceX,
SourceY = SourceY,
SourceField = SourceField,
TargetX = TargetX,
TargetY = TargetY,
TargetField = TargetField) do
Then, when you receive this event, the LocateNode() method will give you
the DisplayNode which is beeing dragged :
(assume that your OutLineFields are mapped to the class named :
ClassOutLine,
and Col is an Integer which is not important here)
TheSourceLine : ClassOutLine;
Col : Integer;
TheSourceLine = (ClassOutLine)((OutLineField)(SourceField).LocateNode(X
= SourceX,
Y = SourceY,
Column = Col));
If you want to remove this line from the Source OutLineField :
TheSourceLine.Parent = Nil;
TheSourceLine.UpdateFieldFromData();
If you want to insert this line at the end of the Target OutLineField :
TheSourceLine.Parent = (OutLineField)(TargetField);
TheSourceLine.UpdateFieldFromData();
And if you want to insert this line before or after the Target line of
the Target OutLineField :
TheTargetLine : ClassOutLine;
TheTargetLine = (ClassOutLine)((OutLineField)(TargetField).LocateNode(X
= TargetX,
Y = TargetY,
Column = Col));
TheTargetLine.PrevSibling = TheSourceLine; // Insert the source line
before the target line
or
TheTargetLine.NextSibling = TheSourceLine; // Insert the source line
after the target line
TheTargetLine.UpdateFieldFromData();
I hope this help you !

Can you try it in a different user account. If it works in a different account, then it is likely something in your current user account that is messed up. If it doesn't work in another user account, then it is likely something with Mail, itself.

Drag and Drop images between two listviews

I need a help for listview drag n drop opretion on winform. where listview1 hold the images and i want to drag images from listview1 to listview2
and then when i click any button i want all paths of Images which is in the listview2. and also i want to set the image size on listview2. Please help me.

Hi Ajay Kumar,
According to your description, you'd like to drag and drop listviewitems between two listviews.
Here is my example for dropping items between listviews. You could add one imageList control to your form.
public Form1()
InitializeComponent();
this.listView2.AllowDrop = true;
this.listView1.AllowDrop = true;
this.listView2.View = System.Windows.Forms.View.LargeIcon;
this.listView2.DragDrop += new System.Windows.Forms.DragEventHandler(this.OnDragDrop);
this.listView2.DragEnter += new System.Windows.Forms.DragEventHandler(this.OnDragEnter);
this.listView1.ItemDrag += new System.Windows.Forms.ItemDragEventHandler(this.OnItemDrag);
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(@"D:\Material\Emoticons");
foreach (FileInfo file in dir.GetFiles())
try
this.imageList1.Images.Add(Image.FromFile(file.FullName));
catch
Console.WriteLine("This is not an image file");
this.listView1.View = View.LargeIcon;
this.imageList1.ImageSize = new Size(32, 32);
this.listView1.LargeImageList = this.imageList1;
this.listView2.LargeImageList = this.imageList1;
//or
//this.listView1.View = View.SmallIcon;
//this.listView1.SmallImageList = this.imageList1;
for (int j = 0; j < this.imageList1.Images.Count; j++)
ListViewItem item = new ListViewItem();
item.ImageIndex = j;
this.listView1.Items.Add(item);
private void OnItemDrag(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.ItemDragEventArgs e)
DoDragDrop(e.Item, DragDropEffects.Move);
private void OnDragEnter(object sender,
System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs e)
if (!e.Data.GetDataPresent(typeof(ListViewItem)))
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None;
return;
var items = (ListViewItem)e.Data.GetData(typeof(ListViewItem));
if (items == null)
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.None;
else
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Move;
private void OnDragDrop(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs e)
ListViewItem items = (ListViewItem)e.Data.GetData(typeof(ListViewItem));
if (items != null)
this.listView2.Items.Add((ListViewItem)items.Clone());

Drag and drop attachments between two email windows

Hi together,
my problem is easy. i cannot drag and drop attachements between two email windows using Apple Mail. On my old MBAir it was no problem. I do not know which configuration i have to change. To drag and drop to the desktob is no problem. Now i have to drop an attachement on the desktop to attach it to a new mail. This cannot be the solution :-) Please help me.Thank you.
