Sync from different comuters

I have my contacts and calenar on a different PC from my music (iTunes). Will I be able to sync from both?

Yes you definitely can. Set your sync to manual and sync your contacts and calendar on one pc, then switch to the other computer, also setting to manual sync, and sync your music. I do it all the time with my two computers.
hope this helps.

OIM 11g LDAP sync from different LDAP containers

Hi,
I have been setting up OIM 11g R2 (11.1.2) to use LDAP Sync to OID.
As of now the sync works (both ways) for this container:
cn=users,cn=oracleAccounts,dc=mycompany,dc=com (configured while doing the OIM config)
Would it be possible to sync users in other containers as well? For example:
cn=users,cn=otherAccounts,dc=mycompany,dc=com
cn=users,cn=moreAccounts,dc=Otherstuff,dc=com
By editing the file LDAPContainerRules.xml I can setup where the users are created when I create them through IDM.
But that will not make the sync work for those containers.
Any ideas where I should start to accomplish the above?
Thanks & Regards,
Henrik

Okay, I think I have found an answer to how to sync users from different OU:s in my OID to different OIM organizations.
Hopefully this will help others.
We can use a PostProcess Event handler like this:
1. Implement the method --> public BulkEventResult execute()
This is used during recon actions.
2. Get the user hashmap with attributes and set the "act_key" value with the OIM organizations ID.
You also needs to build the logic to fetch the users "LDAP DN", which is also fetched from the map.
From that attribute we can decide which Organization to put the user in.
This is the best solution we have found yet..

Sync from different library other than mine.

Hello. I have an iPhone 4S and is it possible to sync music onto my phone from a different library other than mine without the possibility of wiping out my own library? I noticed this when I hooked my iPhone up to my boyfriend's computer, and when I tired to drag a song onto my device, it would not allow it. When I clicked the box "manually manage music" then it gives me the option to replace his library with mine. Is there any way around this? Thanks.

No, by design the iPhone is meant to sync with a single iTunes library. If you attempt to sync with another one it will wipe the media off your phone and replace it with the other library. Don't attempt this or you will have major problems trying to recover.

Syncing Photos from different folders...?

I know it never worked in the beginning-but has someone found a way to sync photos not from only one folder but from different folders to the ipod?
something like a photo playlist...?

You can sync from different folders if they are all sub-folders beneath a main one. If the main folder you are syncing from has sub folders they will show in the box below "Sync photos from folder". For example you may choose to sync from My Pictures and inside My Pictures you have folders for different subjects. You can choose which of those subject folders you want to update to the iPod or you might want to make a folder in there especially for iPod photos. You can drag these folders into an order of your choice.
Here's a simple "How To" on downloading photos from a folder and sub folders on your hard disk to an iPod:
1 Create a folder on your hard drive to hold the photos you want on your iPod. Call it iPod Photos for example
2 Inside this folder create as many other folders as you want (or drag and drop existing ones from other locations on your hard drive)
3 Drag the photos you want from your usual picture folder into the appropriate folders you just created. (not necessary if you are using pre-existing folders already containing photos)
4 Open iTunes, select your iPod in the iTunes Source list.
5 Click the Photos tab and select “Synch photos from.”
6 Choose “Choose Folder” from the pop-up menu and select the iPod photos folder you created.
7 Choose the radio button "Selected folders"
8 Tick the folders you want to go on the iPod and click Apply
When you go to Photos on your iPod you'll see each of the folders you have chosen in the menu and you can choose whichever one you want to view.

Syncing photos from different iPhoto accounts

On my iMac, my wife, daughter and I all have our own accounts on the machine which means we have 3 different iPhoto collections and you can's see one from the other.
Any way we can sync all three iPhoto collections to a single iPad?

HT4236 There HAS to be a way to get photos that were synced from the computer on to the iPad OFF of the iPad in a different way than having to email each individual photo back to oneself. And you can't delete them either, using up vital storage

My Ipad2 has photos synced from my main computer on it, taking up vital storage. I cannot remove them at all, and the folks at the Genius Bar can't help either. Apparently there is no way to remove them unless they were originally taken by the Ipad2 camera. And the only way you can get copies of those photos back on to the computer or another device is to individually email EACH photograph.
There has to be a way to remove these pics to free up the storage.
I almost was unable to load the new operating system because of the amount of photos on the iPad,which ended up on the iPad as a mistake in the first place during an early syncing when it was first purchased.
This is a HUGE glitch in the system. If you know otherwise, please advise!

Lost around 800 pics I synced from a different Laptop(iTune)

Hi,
So, I synced around 800 pics(from laptop to iPhone 4) from a laptop I used earlier and I synced some music(from laptop to iPhone 4) as well. I bought a new laptop two days ago and installed iTunes. I tried to sync some stuff from my new lappy to my phone, I could not add anything on my phone but lost almost all the photos I synced from my old lappy.
Is there any way I can get all those pics.\
Those pics were very important for me and I do not have any copy of that.
Thanks

Sorry, but they are gone. Unless you had them backed up elsewhere, they are permanently lost.

Sync ipod using backup from different computer

I have a computer (running windows 7 32-bit, if that info is needed) which is the only computer I would sync my ipod touch with (4th gen, 32GB, running latest stable iOS). I recently did a wipe and reload on my computer, reinstalled iTunes, and added back all my apps, music, etc. I also copied all my old sync files from the backup (because I was smart and copied my C: drive to an external hard drive first before the wipe and reload) from the external hard drive to the C:\Users\Derek\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup folder on the computer where they should be. I can even see them in iTunes>Edit>Preferences>Devices>Device backups where they should be (see screenshot: http://goo.gl/XFgn7). But every time I connect my ipod touch to my computer, I get this warning (see screenshot: http://goo.gl/xZQjW).
My question is thus: If I click "Erase and Sync" on the warning dialog, will this act like a regular sync, or will it get rid of the apps and organizing system I have on my ipod and replace them with the ones on my computer?
AND
If the result will be replacing the organization system I have already set up on my ipod, how do I tell iTunes to sync from the old backup?

Make a copy of the backup that you made and place it in a safe place like in My Documents. The backup is loated:
Windows XP:\Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
Windows Vista and Windows 7:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press theReturn key.
Then let iTunes erase and sync the iPod.
If necessary, restore the iPod from that backup .

Transfer photos after already having synced from a different iTunes

Here is the current situation:
I had a bunch of photos on a PC
I synced these photos to my iPad through iTunes on the PC
The PC died and there's no way to get the photos back
I have a Mac that I want to sync the photos from the iPad (now the only copy of the photos) down to.
How do I do this? So far it seems as though any images synced from the original PC don't exist from the Mac's perspective (though the photos are still clearly on the iPad).
What do I do?

No backup of the computer?
You will need a 3rd party app to get the photos off the iPad.
Search for 'transfer photos from iPad to computer'.
Note that photos sync'd to the iPad are not the original resolution as they were on the computer.
iTunes "optimizes" them to 2304 x 1536 (~3MP). so you do not get the same photo quality as you had with the original photos on your computer.

You can't sync an iPod from two computers, if you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference to "manually manage songs and videos"

Photos syncing from folder to iPhone all out of order?

I have 2 folders synced to my iPhone 4 photo app.
They were previous camera rolls before I set up my phone as a new device. They are all named in order and taken in order, for example IMG_001.jpg was my first picture in my old camera roll. IMG_822.jpg was the last photo taken before I did the backup, and is the last in the folder.
The folder I am syncing from on my windows computer displays all of the pictures by filename (and because of that, by date) but when syncing with iTunes they end up on the phone ALL out of order. I can't find any rhyme or reason to how they are displaying. Most of the earlier photos show up at the beginning like they should, and the last at the bottom of the scroll appear to be mostly right, but then it's completely random from there.
I've tried unsyncing them, removing them, and then adding them back again and nothing seems to work. I've even tried renaming the IMG_xxx numbers to different things and they still appear to sync in the same random order.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a huge bug for someone with OCD like me? lol

This is highly annoying.
I have probably 15-20 Smart Albums in iPhoto 8.1.2 in OS10.6.4 that are syncing to iOS4.0
On the old software, my Smart Albums for photos would show up AS the smart albums I created. Now they show up in the iPhone one giant mess called "Photo Library".
I can view photos broken up under "Events" on the iPhone by specific dates, but the dates don't tell me what the name of the event was, and some Smart Albums had multiple dates grouped together in one Smart Album and I don't really want them broken out separately by date. I want them organized how I organized them...
In short, I want my photos grouped the way I have explicitly grouped them. It used to work, it doesn't now.
Since iOS4.0 I am also getting sync errors all the time in iTunes. "iPhone cannot be synced because the required file cannot be found." WHICH FILE??? tell me and I will delete it...
I've rebuilt the entire database in iPhoto (took 4 hours). I've scanned iTunes and removed all broken links and duplicate files. I've scanned the hard drive with the disk tool. I've emptied the iPhone and reinstalled iOS4 on it 5 times. I've turned syncing off for all non-essential applications and stuff I don't actually sync like voice memos. Same problem.
I think I want my iOS 3 back. I don't really like multitasking anyway, always having to turn off applications for the one or two times in a million where task switching if helpful...
Ugh....

How to delete photos from iPhone 4 which have synced from computer

I believe this dilemma has been documented many times before and I have in fact had to resort to resetting my iphone to factory settings to remove the thousands of photos which were synced from my computer in the past. Today however, after many attempts, I have managed to remove all those photos, so I wanted to write this down for anyone else who finds themselves in my predicament. On my computer, I went to Windows Explorer and created a new folder and dragged it to "pictures" where there was a single photo displayed. I dragged this single photo into my new folder. I then went to iTunes and selected my iPhone and clicked on the 'photo' tab. Here I ticked the sync photos from box, selected my new folder and selected "selected folders". A new screen appears for folders and I ticked the new folder box and then the sync button on the bottom right of the screen. Voila, after many tries they have gone and I am left with my iPhone photos which I am able to delete normally if I wish. I appreciate people will have different computer operating systems etc so instructions may be different for them but I hope this technologically challenged individual may have helped one or two of you. I remain at a loss as to why Apple can't find a quick fix ie a trash can, where we can delete these photos. Cheers

If your OS detail provided is accurate, you won't be using or syncing this iPhone with your Mac.
On this iPhone, you can go to Settings > General > Reset and select Erase All Content and Settings. This will get rid of all your friend's content and settings making this iPhone truly yours.

How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?

How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?
We are two people using three difrent Macs, 1 Iphone and 1 Ipad with separate USERS on each Mac but sharing the same Apple ID: xxxxxx
I set up the first user to iCloud and it was OK but when I set up the second user to use iCoud the first users's info gets mixed with the second user's info?
Do we have to set up a diffrent Apple ID for each other?
Sometime ago I added my friends E mail (yyyyy) to the main Apple ID (xxxx) as for using his E mail account (to separate our e mail accounts, and it's working ok) but now when I try to create a new apple ID whith the same friend's e mail (yyyyyy) it says that his mail (yyyyy) is already an apple ID when the Apple ID is really my E mail (xxxxx)... any clue?
Thanks

I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
Hope that helps

I am after some advice on how to access photos on an iPad that were synced from a now failed laptop? The question stems from a need to return my current iPad having just taken delivery of a new unit. Thanks

If you have a dropbox account, there's a free app (probably more) that syncs photos to your dropbox account - picbox.
There's also PhotoSync that syncs photos to/from a number of different services and devices.
