Media/Disk cache, etc. setup for a desktop and laptop dual configuration
Hi,
(New User)
I have a desktop at home, and a laptop. I split my time about 50/50 between the two. I use it for AE, PP, PS mainly
Desktop hard drive setup:
1 SSD (Currently, Windows 8 and Adobe CC installed)
2 - 1TB (7200rpm) drives (1 drive is where I put my project files (gets sync'd with google drive) and the other drive isn't being used at the moment)
Laptop:
1TB Hard drvie (Of course, Win 8 and Adobe CC installed) (And, the folder where I do my projects gets sync'd with google drive).
As you can see, because I split my time between a laptop and desktop, I need to be working with the most current files (which is why I sync them through google drive).
My question is (please remember I am new), where should I set up disk cache, media cache, and anything else so that it is effecient and more importantly so I can use either my laptop or desktop to work on the same files?
Again, I barely know what I am talking about here. I really don't understand what media cache, disk cache, etc. is. I am trying to learn but I want to get this setup first so I can start with the tutorials on lynda.com.
Thanks,
Chris
First you do not need disk cache for all projects. For some it may even get in the way. Second, put your disk cache wherever you would like. If you have a second drive that is fast, use that. If you have room on your SSD drive, use that.
If you get into trouble with a comp and previews are fouled up or things just don't look right, empty your disk cache. It's not a necessity for working with AE, it's just a convenience for some projects that may help you work a little faster.

Where can I find a retail copy of MAC OSX Snowleopard, that has all the drivers, for both desktop and Laptops?
No. 10.6.3 was the last retail release of Snow Leopard. Download the 10.6.8 Combo updater and put it on a flash drive to make it easier to install the largest part of the update.
Also, don't push the same disk image of SL to your Macs unless they are exactly the same model as it was originally installed on. The wrong hardware drivers will otherwise be in use. -
I bought Adobe XI on disk, want to install it on desktop and laptop. Why can't I?
I installed this copy of Acrobat XI Pro on my MacPro laptop, but I also want it on my Mac desktop. Since I am the owner of both machines, why cant I install it on both?
Thanks. On the first install on my laptop, my bona fides were sent to some outside company that verified that I am indeed an education professional. But when I tried to install on my desktop, it just told me the number had already been used. I wanted to contact Adobe in the first place to try and figure this out and they make it impossible--none of their help prompts were helpful and there was no email address to send my query to. I will search again and see about calling them.

Connecting WRT54g with Sprint aircard for desktop and laptop
I am trying to setup my router with my sprint aircard on my desktop so that both my desktop and laptop can get internet. Does anyone have an idea on how to do this. i have been trying for a week now and cant get it. I have read messages every where and people say you can do it. I just cant figure it out. please help.
Message Edited by dgrev16 on 02-02-2008 03:58 PMyou should be able to plug you desktop into one of the numbered ports on the back of the router, that will get the desktop going, if it has an ethernet port, now with respect to the laptop, is the sprint aircard for wireless web that you pay for monthly or your adaptor to use for the router, if you pay monthly for the sprint aircard that is good and you should be able to use the laptop anywhere you want and there is sprint service to get online, does your laptop have a wirless card built in? if so you could use that to get online, let us know what you have and we can provide more support.

Hi,
I have apple account/password on laptop but can't use the same ID etc on new Ipad. On my account it says ID is only for 1 system. I really want only one ID for both Ipad and laptop.
ThanksIt seems that you have used the AppleIDs to "Purchase" your devices, which marries the two for all time and eternity.

How do I setup a wireless file sharing network with a desktop and laptop?
Here are the specs.
Desktop, 1 Ethernet, hooked to Wireless router and is my main computer. XP Professional
Router, Wireless Linksys WRT54GL
Laptop, Wireless card and Ethernet. XP Home
Both the Desktop and Laptop can use the internet. The internet can be accessed by both computers. I have tried everything from creating a network via windows, messed with that for a couple days, tried programs and messed with them for a few hours.
I can sometimes see the other computer, when I deleted the programs I had to redo it, and so on. I made the folders I wanted shared, through the share menu when you right click on them, and they show up on the other computer, but I can't access them. It says I don't have access rights and to contact the administrator, but IM the administrator.
So, what do I do?Disable all firewall on both the computers ....
Try to ping one computer to another ... see if it works ....
Also you can try this link ..... useful for enabling the sharing of files in a network ... -

Adobe Flash Builder 4 licence is for one desktop and one laptop, only one at a time run or
After installing Adobe Flash Builder 4 needed install AIR? Adobe Flex 4 SDK IS ALREADY INCLUDED?
Adobe Flash Builder 4 licence is for one desktop and one laptop, only one at a time run or...?hi,
Flashbuilder has the ability to create and run Air content from the IDE, to actually usean Air App outside of the IDE you need to install Air.
Flashbuilder install includes 2 sdks, the 3.5 sdk for 'backward' compatibility with Flexbuilder and for targeting flashplayer 9, the 4.x SDK for Flashbuilder and targetting flashplayer 10.0 and above.
As far as fair use is concerned Adobe have had fair use software licensing for a while, single user 2 devices is not a problem, what is not clear is if you can use the software on both devices at the same time.

Using different templates for the desktop and phone versions of the same blog
I have a site which was created in Adobe Muse and is hosted on Business Catalyst.
I have created both a desktop and a phone versions of the site.
I want to know how I can integrate the blogs that I currently have on the desktop site with the phone version that I just did, using different templates for the desktop and phone versions of the same blog. This is in order to ensure that visitors to the blogs on the website are directed to the templates that render correctly for the devices they are using.
My current approach has been to create both a desktop and phone versions of the blogs. The problem with this however, is that the dates are different and the comments are separated between the two blog versions!
I have also tried enabling mobile templates in BC, but still couldn't find a way to specify the mobile versions of the templates for the same blog?
To recap my problem, I basically need a solution where the same blog uses different templates for desktop and mobile (both templates use different navigation headings and menu styles)
Thanks.There can be few reason for this, including page contents links or contents used in phone/tablet version.
Please provide the site url , also try to publish the site as a trial site in Business Catalyst with all layouts which would help to isolate the issue.
Thanks,

Dear Mozilla-Support-Team,
I am thinking about a new webservice based on an add-on for Mozilla (and other Internet Browsers).
In general, is it possible to write a combined add-on for Firefox (desktop) and Firefox (Android and iPhone)? Or do both Mozilla-worlds (desktop / mobile) differ and therefore require to write seperate add-ons (just Desktopn AND mobile or Desktop AND Android AND iPhone).
Thank you very much for your help!It can be the same extension though you will likely need to write different code for FxAndroid and Fx Desktop.

Makes no difference. Any machine that Apple has sold in the past 4 years runs Mountain Lion and Xcode with no problem. Xcode is far more demanding than a backend database and local web server.
