Sync AD to OD in oneway, How?

Hello
We have to AD Server in our HQ. In the branch we have a complete mac envoirement with citrix.
I have read a dozen of tutorial related to OD/AD but I have found no solution to setup an envoirement that the AD Server is master and sync to OD. Because Citrix Dazzle has no option to recognise a command to change to PW, connect both. I am not interested in connecting the mac clients direct to the AD server because the office are only connected by an 4000/4000 kps/s ethernet line. This should be enough to sync AD to OD Server.
I have look the folowing videos/tutorial
- Lynda 10.6 video tutorial
- 10.6 OS X Server Missing Manual.pdf
- Mac OS X Server 10.6 Snow Leopard Essential Training with Sean Colins
- Apple Pro Training Series MacOSX 10.6 Server Troubleshooting & Support Essentials.pdf
- Apple OpenDirAdmin_v10.6.pdf
Is their soneone wo can tell be where I can find a way to set it up?

I don't believe it's possible to sync AD to OD. You can sync group membership between AD groups and OD groups but that's about as far as i know you can go. Authentication has to be done by AD so you can bind Mac clients to both AD and OD. and use AD binding only for AD authentication. This way, mac clients can change their passwords.
AD binding produces very low network traffic so i wouldn't be worried about your link speed. Mac workstations will cache AD credentials so the users will still be able to login if the wan connection goes down. If you do bind a mac server to AD and AD DC is not available you will run into issues where users can't access shares. There are workarounds for this...

Hello Solid Buck,
Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing. It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone.
In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone. I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Turn off My PhotoStream in iCloud on both the iPad and the Mac. PhotoStream is what shares your photos (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library Beta, in which case, all photos uploaded are accessible from all devices signed onto the same Apple/iCloud ID).

I have forgotten my appleID password and the email it is linked to is deactivated, security questions aren't working. This is on my iPhone and iTunes acs so I can't sync with my new computer. How do I merge AppleID accounts and shut down the old one?

You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.
You can contact the Apple ID Security folks per the listing in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 and they can help reset security questions and get the account working.

I accidentally synced my mum's brand new iPad to my mac book air. A few days later I realised that my iTune library on my mac is completely gone. So is my iPhone 4s after I synced it with my mac. How do I get my old iTunes library back? I tried using icloud on my iphone but it stated that I have never back up my phone before. So I guess my iCloud data is gone too? But I have back up my mac in my harddrive using time machine. So how do I get my old itune library back? Please help! Thanks!

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

The computer that I used to sync my Ipad with crashed. How can I copy the pictures from my Ipad to my new computer?

The computer that I used to sync my Ipad with crashed. How can I copy the pictures from my Ipad to my new computer? When I try to use Picassa to import them I can only see the 'Camera Roll; folder but I have several other folders with hundreds of pictures in them

To copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - on a PC you can use the windows camera wizard
To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app on your iPad such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer.

Would like to restore my reloaded firefox from sync following a system reload. How do I do this?

Had to do a total reload of my system. Set up firefox sync before I did it.
How do I now sync my newly reloaded firefox with the sync'ed data ?
Attempts to do so result in no way to hit the continue button.

Hi Zoot28,
If you have the recovery key, this should not be a problem. However without this or a back up of the profile, this may be an issue.
If you have your recovery key then you can use that to pull down the information from Sync and get it onto your new machine.
If you do not have your recovery key then I don't think it will be possible to restore your data using Firefox Sync.
You may be able to recover / undelete your profile folder or your automatic bookmark backups.[[Firefox Sync troubleshooting and tips]]
Please post back if this helped out.

It has been shown there are problems with the latest update of iTunes and Windows computers. What you need to do is remove and reinstall iTunes, and make sure that you follow the steps in this support document exactly. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923. If you do not follow them exactly, you will just compound your problems. Once you do this, you should have no trouble having the phone recognized in iTunes.

I had to format my HD, now iTunes says my iPOD is sync'd with another computer. How do I get my iPOD's music back in to the library and sync it with the computer again?

I had to format my computers hard drive. Now the iTunes thinks my iPOD is sync'd with another computer. How do I get re-sync the iPOD and computer and get my songs on the iPOD back in to the iTunes library. Thanks!

Can't tell you exactly, as it can be used to facilitate piracy and Apple blocks this sort of thing from occuring (except for itunes purchased music)
But you can find out what your looking for at iLounge, i'd suggest that method for "mixed" music from different sources, that way you get it all back.
Next time, hit the iTunes menu and backup your library to disks, only takes a few minutes and a few DVD-R's.
Good Luck

I have an iPhone and when I got it, I had a Toshiba laptop. Now I have a MacBook Pro, but when I try to wi-fi sync my iphone and new computer, it doesn't work because on my iphone it is still trying to sync with my old computer. How I can fix this?

Move the content from the old computer to the new computer.
Sync the iPhone via cable to the new computer and enable Wi-Fi syncing.
It should now be possible to sync via Wi-Fi to the new computer.

HT1212 forgotten passcode and I no longer have the computer I intially synced my ipad to itune with, how I restore my ipad

forgotten passcode and I no longer have the computer I intially synced my ipad to itune with, how can I restore my ipad

You will still need to connect it to a computer's iTunes to reset it, and you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode in order to be able to do so : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If it's not a computer that it's been synced to then do you have a backup on iCloud that you could then restore from ? Depending upon what country that you are in, and whether the items are still in the store, you may be able to re-download some/all of your purchases via the Purchased tabs in the iTunes and App Store apps, and the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app.

I want to delete a few contacts, apps, pics etc from my iphone, but when I delete and connect to my laptop they sync and come back again. How can I delete those items and not get them back when I connect my iphone to my laptop?

Also where exactly on the laptop is teh data stored.
Thank you!!

go to 'Edit' in the menu bar. Then choose 'Preferences'.
you'll see a pop-up and there's a tab called 'Devices' there. If you click that, you will be able to check a box that says 'prevent automatic syncing for iPods, iPads and iPhones' or something like that.
Hope this helps
NB: if you don't even see the menu bar that has options like 'File, Edit, View, etc', first click the black/white square button on the top left of your screen, and then click 'show menu bar'. It should pop right up.
Good luck
