Missing Sync vs. PocketMac For Synchronizing Data between Blackberry and MAC

I'm looking for software to synchronize contacts, events, appointments, notes, tasks, etc., between my Blackberry Curve (8330 Series) and my iMac (MAC OS X 10.5.5).  I've investigated Missing Sync and it certainly would work.  Today I was advised that PocketMac will accomplish the same thing.  So, I'm looking for a recommendation on the advantages/disadvantages of either or both packages.

  • Best Design for Home Network Between PC and Mac

    Good day, all!
    Forgive me if this has been covered before - I could not find a thread addressing this very issue.
    I have an iMac, and my wife refuses to give up her PC.  She is also not that great at routinely backing up her PC laptop, leaving it to me to do it periodically.  To address this, I purchased an Airport Extreme and hooked up an external hard drive, hoping that she would use it (she doesn't).  I partitioned the hard drive such that half is formatted for TimeMachine (I periodically hook up my iMac physically to the hard drive to perform back ups) and the other half is formatted such that both the PC and Mac can access it, though neither can automatically back up to it.
    (If you've made it this far: thank you, thank you, thank you.)
    I would like to set up the network in a more efficient manner.  I realize that doing so will likely preclude me from taking advantage of the TimeMachine function, but I would like to design this home network such that my wife's computer will automatically back up to the hard drive (she has tons of pictures and does not routintely back them up) and allow all computers to easily access and "sync" with the external hard drive.  In other words, I would like to create a way in which the local hard drive of each computer (or a folder within) mirrors the contents of the network (Airport Extreme) hard drive.
    I understand that Dropbox sort of does this by having a folder on each machine that syncs with each other and with an off-site server, but I prefer to keep it local (and not pay a monthly fee).
    Is this possible?  Or should I simply maintain separate hard drives for each computer?
    I appreciate any and all help.
    James

    Ok, first be aware that Apple does NOT support Time Machine backups to an AirPort Disk (an external USB HDD connected to an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn)). These may appear to work for a while, but it's only a matter of time before them become corrupted ... and I highly recommend that if your data is critical to stop using this method.
    At best, the AirPort Disk can be used for file storage. It may also be possible to use it with a Windows-based backup solution, but not Time Machine. One example product for Windows is Genie9's Genie Timeline Home which is similar to Time Machine in operation.
    With that said, the best backup performance (for either OS) would be to either use a dedicated external HDD attached to each device or to use a dedicated NAS device ... preferably connected by Ethernet. Some NAS devices also provide Time Machine support. One of them is the Drobo FS.

  • Best method for passing data between nested components

    I have a fairly good sized Flex application (if it was
    stuffed all into one file--which it used to be--it would be about
    3-4k lines of code). I have since started breaking it up into
    components and abstracting logic to make it easier to write,
    manage, and develop.
    The biggest thing that I'm running into is figuring out a way
    to pass data between components. Now, I know how to write and use
    custom events, so that you dispatch events up the chain of
    components, but it seems like that only works one way (bottom-up).
    I also know how to make public variables/functions inside the
    component and then the caller can just assign that variable or call
    that function.
    Let's say that I have the following chain of components:
    Component A
    --Component B
    -- -- Component C
    -- -- -- Component D
    What is the best way to pass data between A and D (in both
    directions)?
    If I use an event to pass from D to A, it seems as though I
    have to write event code in each of the components and do the
    bubbling up manually. What I'm really stuck on though, is how to
    get data from A to D.
    I have a remote object in Component A that goes out and gets
    some data from the server, and most all of the other components all
    rely on whatever was returned -- so what is the best way to be able
    to "share" data between all components? I don't want to have to
    pass a variable through B and C just so that D can get it, but I
    also don't want to make D go and request the information itself. B
    and C might not need the data, so it seems stupid to have to make
    it be aware of it.
    Any ideas? I hope that my explanation is clear enough...
    Thanks.
    -Jake

    Peter (or anyone else)...
    To take this example to the next (albeit parallel) level, how
    would you go about creating a class that will let you just
    capture/dispatch local data changes? Following along my original
    example (Components A-D),let's say that we have this component
    architecture:
    Component A
    --Component B
    -- -- Component C
    -- -- -- Component D
    -- -- Component E
    -- -- Comonnent F
    How would we go about creating a dispatch scheme for getting
    data between Component C and E/F? Maybe in Component C the user
    picks a username from a combo box. That selection will drive some
    changes in Component E (like triggering a new screen to appear
    based on the user). There are no remote methods at play with this
    example, just a simple update of a username that's all contained
    within the Flex app.
    I tried mimicking the technique that we used for the
    RemoteObject methods, but things are a bit different this time
    around because we're not making a trip to the server. I just want
    to be able to register Component E to listen for an event that
    would indicate that some data has changed.
    Now, once again, I know that I can bubble that information up
    to A and then back down to E, but that's sloppy... There has to be
    a similar approach to broadcasting events across the entire
    application, right?
    Here's what I started to come up with so far:
    [Event(name="selectUsername", type="CustomEvent")]
    public class LocalData extends EventDispatcher
    private static var _self:LocalData;
    // Constructor
    public function LocalData() {
    // ?? does anything go here ??
    // Returns the singleton instance of this class.
    public static function getInstance():LocalData {
    if( _self == null ) {
    _self = new LocalData();
    return _self;
    // public method that can be called to dispatch the event.
    public static function selectUsername(userObj:Object):void {
    dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent(userObj, "selectUsername"));
    Then, in the component that wants to dispatch the event, we
    do this:
    LocalData.selectUsername([some object]);
    And in the component that wants to listen for the event:
    LocalData.getInstance().addEventListener("selectUsername",
    selectUsername_Result);
    public function selectUsername_Result(e:CustomEvent):void {
    // handle results here
    The problem with this is that when I go to compile it, it
    doesn't like my use of "dispatchEvent" inside that public static
    method. Tells me, "Call to possibly undefined method
    "dispatchEvent". Huh? Why would it be undefined?
    Does it make sense with where I'm going?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Does anyone know why is that?
    sorry is my english is not so good im from spain and i might not explained very well
    thank you

    The x86 architecture has a standard formatting for disks that uses up to four primary partitions on a disk. On DOS or UNIX, you can view the partitions with 'fdisk'.
    This is layer that Windows and Linux tends to use for filesystems.
    Solaris though uses only one of those partitions for its own use (marking it a Solaris partition) and places a label similar to that on a SPARC disk (VTOC). So within the single x86 partition are several further subdivisions (slices).
    On solaris, the disk might be /dev/dsk/c0t0d0. You could access one of the Solaris (VTOC) slices as /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0. As far as I know, Linux does not understand how to address the Solaris VTOC slices (If this isn't true, I'd love to know what the syntax for doing so is).
    You'd access the (non-Solaris) x86 parititions like /dev/dsk/c0t0d0p1 or so. While Linux can address extended x86 partitions, Solaris can only address primary partitions.

  • How to sinck data between  production and R12 instance

    Hi,
    I am working on Oracle Apps up-gradation project.
    Now I have upgrade 11.5.7 to R12 (12.0.4) successfully. I started up-gradation task with 1 May of production data (backup) on new machine.
    Client wants to live R12 from 1/August/2009.
    Please suggest how to sinck data between production and R12 instance.
    Thanks
    Anup

    Hi,
    It is not possible to do what you propose (sync data from an 11.5.7 system to a 12.0.4 system). You will need to re-run the upgrade against the August 1 data, following your original upgrade procedures.

  • How to pass series of dates (between startdate and enddate) to subreport, which takes only one date as parameter

    Relatively new to Microsoft report services. I have created a report which takes a single parameter named 'SelectedDate'. This report runs fine (uses complex query of hours of the selected date and complex joins & aggregate calculations between SQL
    database tables). I created a new report with two parameters, namely, StartDate and EndDate. Also created a sql stored procedure which gives all dates between StartDate and EndDate. Added subreport to this report which calls my first report and defined 'SelectedDate'
    parameter to get the value as "=First(Fields!dt.Value, "DataSet1") - where dt is the resultset of procedure called in DataSet1. When I run this report, in the subreport, all I see is the report for 'StartDate' which is the passed
    value of the first parameter. I can't find a way to pass entire array of dates as parameter, to which user can browse forwards and backwards. Any idea? Thanks in advance for your help!

    HI Visakh16..Never mind my comment..I tried it again. This time I went to the completion of previewing..and noticed that the table with DataSet1 does display dates and first report underneath but once I click any other date, it displays the subreport on
    full page and navigation back arrow (with hint 'back to Parent Report) solution is not bad..so unless you a way to achieve my desired layout mentioned above - I am good for now! Thanks for your pointer in right direction!
    One small observation for thread readers: When I published the report to the report server, the back button (back to Parent Report) which was available to me at design time, is not displayed at client's browser. Upon checking pertinent threads, concluded
    that this is known issue for years and recommendation I concluded from various threads is: Use back button of browser and it should (& did) keep the parent report page, with table with selected dates intact. A few have noticed different behaviour
    for older browser versions. 

  • Why replicate Master Data between CRM and IS-U?????

    Hello colleagues,
    I am at a customer who is already replicating Business Partner and Contract Accounts between CRM 5.0 and IS-U (ECC 6.0).
    He is using CRM IC WinClient where most of the processes are implemented as transaction calls in IS-U.
    There is a possibility to replicate all objects (Accounts, Connection Objects and Installations) but what is the purpose of doing it.
    Could anybody tell me what is the advantage of replicating all objects and having them redundant?
    Why to replicate?
    I just found information on how to replicate but not why.
    Thank you very much for your help in advance,

    Hi All,
    The major thing is we should not use ISU as stativ and CRM dynalic system. As we all aware When SAP is launching any module or technology its beleives in re-usabilty.
    Now the issue data replecation between CRM and ISU-
    1. In a utility market if the customer,retailer and the network operator initiate any business flow they should start with CRM as CRM is handling FOP part.It means CRM has not only build only for ISU.
    2. In ISU before billing so many things is getting triggered - like new connecion,transfer,move-in,move-out etc....these process cant be done with the CRM business module as I mentioned earlier CRM is not only designed for IS-U
    So for a smoother process and with proper business SAP introduced CRM IS-U.
    Without replacting the data between CRM and IS-U we cant process the steps which will at last billed a customer.
    Regards.

  • The best way to transfer videos between devices and mac?

    I have an iphone 4s, ipad and a macbook pro - is there any way to transfer videos wirelessly betwen these platforms?
    As far as I know icloud only allows photostream of photos only but nit videos. This is quite inconvenient for video users as I normally take videos using my iphone 4s and would like to edit using ipad/mac's iMovie. I suppose I could transfer videos using a wire between iphone and Mac (still a PAIN without being able to transfer wirelessly), and what about between iphone and ipad? I understand Apple might be concerned about storage and speed for video transfer via icloud, if we could selectively do the transfer and have the option to delete them from icloud after the transfer it will be very much easier for video editor like myself.
    Or have I just missed something? Is there indeed a way to do so??

    If you want to transfer photos and videos from the Mac to the iPhone (but not in the other direction) you can use iTunes and sync via wi-fi: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386
    If you want to wirelessly tranfer videos in the other direction you may want to look into a 3rd party app such as http://www.photosync-app.com Note that I have not used that app so be sure to investigate others as well.

  • 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

  • Share iTunes libraries between Windows and MAC

    Hi all i've an wifi via "Base AirPort" i've an HD shared between MAC and Windows sistem via the BASE, the iTunes library that i've stored in the HD is non redable for iTunes on Windows because it need an *.itl file...
    How can i share an iTunes library between Windows and MAC???

    I would like to report back that after struggling for months to get Tune Ranger to work that it is complete rubbish. The first time I tried to sync my libraries (between an empty iTunes library and my existing one) it created duplicates all over the place in my library and generally made a huge mess of everything. The support person (who I suspect is the only person over there) gave me some guff about my id3 tags being corrupt but it was clear that every song that appeared in a playlist was getting duped. Once I fixed this (many weeks later) I tried a one way sync after fiddling with the preferences of Tune Ranger to try to make it work, but it simply wouldn't.
    I don't know if anyway has had success using TR where they are also trying to sync playlists, but if you have, I would certainly like to know what you settings are.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 2-way Trust Relationship between Windows and Mac Domain

    Hi guys I hope someone can help me.
    Just a quick explanation of what I am trying to do.
    I have an Xserve running OSX 10.5.8 server, which is the OD Master. On that server I’m running Kerio mail server. I have a Microsoft 2003 server running AD.
    The problem is I need to run BlackBerry Enterprise on the Windows server as the BlackBerry need active directory to work.
    Since I have both system already running, I do not want to destroy my open directory just to get the BlackBerry working.
    So what I have tried to do is create a 2-way Trust Relationship between the 2 domains, so the BlackBerry server will talk to the Kerio mail server.
    The trust relationship appears to create fine from the Windows server side, but I’m not able to retrieve LDAP information from the open directory server.
    The creation from the OSX server starts fine automated but then I had to finish it manually.
    Has anyone else here created a 2-way trust relationship between Windows and Mac’s before? Any help on how you did it would be appreciated. Thanks

    Have you checked on when the computer last checked in and changed the computer account password with the domain?  When a computer changes it's password, Active Directory will store only the current password and it does not expire.  The workstation
    will store both the current password and the previous password.  This for cases when you may restore Active Directory to a point before the computer password change.  
    To handle this, the workstation will try it's current password, then it's previous.
    If you're restoring the workstation to a previous point in time, you may be rolling the stored passwords back too far for Active Directory to accept.  I would only imagine this to be the case a handful of times if you're going back 1-2 days.
    Are you experiencing 100% failure?

Maybe you are looking for
