Sync bookmarks between power book and power mac

I'm looking for a way to sync my bookmarks between my power book and power mac. Is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks
Matt

Hi Matt,
There's .Mac if you want more options (not worth the $ if all you're doing is just syncing bookmarks though but good for backup, etc).
Additionally, you can do this manually if you prefer. Go to ~/LIbrary/Safari and copy the Bookmarks.plist between your Powerbook and Powermac (with the most recent updated bookmarks file being copied, of course).
Hope this helps,
-Ryan

Sync folders between an hdd and a mac, Sync folders between an hdd and a mac

I have an external hdd and it is a very tedious job to copy all neccesary files to my external hdd to use on my computer. Is there an application (preferably in the app store) that can be used to sync certain folders and keeps the newer file?
Please help

Not sure exactly what you are going for...
You're aware you need to use iTunes to sync apps between your iPhone and Mac unless you are running V10.7.2 and have iCloud setup.
BTW... apps that are optimized for an iPhone will not run on the Mac OS X and vice versai, two different operating systems.
It really helps to tell us which Mac OS X you have installed when you post for help. Thanks!

Sync workflow between MacBook Air and another Mac

I'm curious how people with two Macs keep their MacBook Air and other Mac in sync with each other. For example, how do you keep Address Book, iCal, and the word processing documents in sync so that you don't end up with multiple versions across two computers or the wrong data.

I don't know if the way I do it is the most efficient way, as I posted a similar question here once and didn't get replies. For regular files / documents, I put my MBA on the desk next to MBPro and enable "file sharing" on both computers, then with the Air I click on the shared computer name listed in the Finder, in my case lt lists Mac Book Pro and then all the files from the Pro ore shown on my Air and I can just drag and drop onto my Air desktop. Once I click out of the shared computer, I then drag that file to wherever I want it.
As far as ICal and contacts, the way I have been doing it is to keep my IPod Touch and the MBPro syncd together with all the iTunes junk and also my calendars and contacts and then at the end of the day I sync those two and then plug the Touch into the Air and it also keeps it updated on calendars and contacts. I would like to learn an easier more direct way but I don't want to buy 3rd party software of mess with .Mac

Sync contacts between Address Book and Gmail

Hi,
I am one of those Android mobile users who wants to sync his contacts with his Mac's address book. Going to Address Book > Preferences > Accounts > sync with Google, has proven ineffective. Not only does it not sync (I have tested making changes in Gmail and checking if changes are reflected in Address Book, and viceversa) but it also creates duplicates every time it syncs.
I would highly appreciate any recommendation on how to proceed. It seems like other users have had similar problems. I am running OSX 10.6.8 on my Mac and Android 4.2.1 on my mobile device.
Thanks to everyone.
Best,
Marcos.

Unable to sync emails between iPhone 5s and I mac

How do I sync bookmarks between my desktop and my Android phone?

''locking - please continue in your original thread - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/998765''
I watched a Firefox tutorial. It said to pull down the Firefox menu and click on "Sign in to sync"
However, when I pull down the Firefox menu on my desktop, it looks exactly like the one on the tutorial, except that there is no option "Sign in to sync." It is simply not there.

Not necessarily. They would if you, for example, set them all up as iCloud notes. This article explains:

How to sync bookmarks between Mac and iPhone without iCloud

How to sync bookmarks between Mac and iPhone without iCloud?
I bought a new iPhone and i would like to copy my Safari's bookmarks from my iMac (OS X 10.10.3) to my new iPhone (iOS 8.3).
How to do this, without iCloud?

You might be able to use Google Calendar to do what you want. Set up a Google account on the web, set up the MacBook to access the Google account, including calendar, then set up the iPhone the same way. While I'm using MAvericks, I am also using Google to manage my calendar, since I don't particularly *like* iCloud... And I came from Android to iPhone, but I haven't like iCloud since it was called MobileMe.
Oh, and as for sync to iTunes, can't you just use a direct conenction to the computer (either WiFi or cable) to keep the music in control?

I need to sync bookmarks between Firefox Sync and Seamonkey. Is this possible and if so how to do it??

I use Firefox and Seamonkey, both on the same computer and also on other computers. I would like to use Firefox Sync to sync bookmarks between Firefox and Seamonkey on all my computers, but I don't understand how to do this, since the browsers seem to use their own separate servers.
Is this possible and if so can you tell me how to set it up.
Thanks.

I understand the confusion!
I am not a Mozilla support person, but from my experience, Sync should be called Mozilla Sync, not Firefox or Seamonkey Sync.....
If you create an account in Firefox, that account is accessible to Seamonkey.
As per the Mozilla instructions, in Firefox you open "Options, sync, add device" and in Seamonkey "setup sync, I already have an account". The text here is a bit confusing because it should read "I already have a Mozilla Sync Account", otherwise you tend to think it implies a Seamonkey Sync account...
Then click "connect" and Seamonkey then supplies three fields of characters which you enter in the appropriate fields in the Firefox "add device" dialog.
I think it is confusing that in Firefox the server is called "Firefox Sync Server" and likewise Seamonkey offers a "Seamonkey Sync Server" suggesting they are two completely separate, non-connected entities.
Hope this helps!

How can you sync safari bookmarks between iphone 5 and ipad mini retina? IOS 7.1.2

The syncing works between my iMac and iPhone on one hand and between iMac and iPad on the other. I'm using IOS 7.1.2. I made sure iCloud is on on IOS devices, same iCloud account, made sure there is no problem with the WiFi...I appreciate any help I can get. thanx

Finally I got a solution from an Apple guy today. First we did the following steps on an iPad and then on iPhone.
Basically, it comes down to this:
general/restore/ erase all content and settings
set up the iPhone/iPad as a new device
type your iCloud account info
once everything is up and running, wait for a while and first check on contacts, calendars, notes if it's syncing with the iCloud, then open safari and look for the other device. In my case it worked and iPad finally detected iPhone and I could see the safari tabs from the iPhone on the iPad.
But then, Iphone still couldn't detect the iPad, so the guy said the original problem was probably in iPhone. And so we did the whole thing again on iPhone and then I finally had my tabs from all devices visible on every device.
Thanks for your help anyway.

Syncing iBooks between my MBP and my iPhone

All the iBooks I have acquired have automatically sync'ed between my phone and my laptop. But recently I purchased a book from the New York Times (The Rise of Apple) and it seems to be stuck in the iBooks library on my MBP. This is something I thought I'd read on the go but it's not making itself available. I thingt perhaps it might have something to do with the format the book is rendered in but I can't find a way of deciphering that.
This set-up screen is displayed by Apple on its support site and shows a checkoff for 'books" in iTune preferences:
However, this is the screen I get in my iTunes preferences window under the Store tab:
There is no "books" option offered.
Any ideas on how I can get this book to display on my iPhone?

Nowadays you have to install the iBooks.app in your mac to manage any books you want to sync or add.

Syncing Mail Between My iMac and Macbook

I am new to the Mac world (I am a PC convert) and I now have an iMac and a Macbook for work.
I have a couple of questions (some of which belong in this group and some elsewhere but I figured someone here could point me in the right direction):
1. My company's email does not support IMAP, only POP. What is the best way to keep my email clients sync'ed? Ideally I would like my Inbox and all of my folders to be the same on my desktop and laptop and it would be great if it was automated somehow.
2. What is the best way to handle my iPhone? Should I make my Macbook the "Sync Master" and only sync it to that?
3. What is the best way to keep my folders and iTunes sync'ed between my iMac and Macbook? Someone suggested Martian Slingshot as the best way to keep them together. Do other people concur?
Any other advice/experience that people may have on the easiest way to use a Desktop in the office and travel with a sync'ed laptop is appreciated.
As I mentioned, I am very new to the Mac world. I can't really think of any great way to sync them in the PC World either but I am grateful for your help. I know I should have gotten a Macbook Pro but my boss didn't want to get me one so I am stuck with the hardware I have.
Thanks.
Jeremy

What I've done with email in the past is set only one of the machines to delete email from the server (if your company allows you that option). But you need to make sure you check with the one that doesn't delete before the other. You may be able to delete manually as well, so don't delete anything from the server until mail has been downloaded to both (I think this can be done in Apple Mail under advanced prefs). But that won't help with tracking replies, etc. And you'll have to manage mailboxes seperately.
.Mac has a bunch of syncing options, but you may not want to go to that expense.
Sorry I don't have any advice on the other stuff, only running 1 Mac.

How can i keep the music pushed to all of families devices but the calendar and notes just between my phone and my mac using icloud?

Ok, so my whole family has the same apple ID so that we can all get the same music, and we want to be able to use icloud so that when one person buys a song it will push to all of our devices. But the problem is when I want my calendar on my mac to also be pushed to my phone it pushes to all of my familys devices. How can i keep the music pushed to everyones but the calendar and notes just between my phone and my mac using icloud?

Oops my bad...I see that during my troubleshooting I inadvertently left Ringtones unchecked in iTunes.
