Sync Mail between Lion and Tiger?

Sync Mail: Lion and Tiger
I have 2 computers I use regularly: one is a G4 with Tiger, the other is a Mac Pro with Lion.
I would like to be able to have my mail on the Lion installation, but will also need to have it on the G4.
My question is: can I sync the mail from one computer to the other, so that they will both have the same contents, both sent and received..same mailboxes, same rules?
The idea being that if the Lion Mac is handling mail for a week, the G4 won't have the sent and received mails on it.
Would I transfer/copy the mailboxes from the Lion Mac to the Tiger Mac, or is there a better way?
thanks!

Problems with Syncing Mail between iPad and MacBook

The mail between my iPod Touch and MacBook used to sync themselves perfectly. If I got a piece of mail on one device and looked at it or deleted it, it wouldn't show up on the other device. It was like both devices could access the same mailbox and not confuse messages with one another. I loved that!!
This is not the case with my iPad. I'll get a piece of mail on my iPad, open it and/or archive it, and then it'll show up on my MacBook's mail as a brand new, unopened message...
How can I fix this? Surely there must be some sort of solution...
If it matters, this is a GMail account, and I'm using an iPad 2 (16 GB, WiFi)

I think i have found how to solve the problem. I went into address book preferences and i noticed i didn't have icloud enabled here. As long as i use icloud contacts rather than 'on my mac' contacts it now seems to delete and add across the 2 devices. Many thanks

Sync Mail between Home and work I-Macs....not working

Hello:
I am not sure what is happening here..... I am running Mavricks on all the systmes below.
on My home network i have my I-mac, I-pad, Mac Pro and I-phone. All my e-mails show up for my accounts and when I delte an e-mail say, on my mac pro it will also delete it on my i-mac, i-pad etc..
However, i also have an I-mac at my office across town and I am signed in with my same id as my apple devices at home and all the acounts are the same. when I delete an e-mail mesage say on my i-phone, it wont delte it on my work computer. Is this because this type of feature only works if allt he computers are on the same network?
If so, thats kind of a pain becasue I my look at my work e-mail from home and delete 50 messages, then go back inot the office the next day and have to delete them again. Maybe I have something set up incorrectly?
Thank you in advance for your advice / help

Sync Mail between iPhone and Macbook?

I'm brand new to Macs. I typically read my emails from the Mail app on my iphone. However, when I open Mail on my macbook, all of those emails that I've already opened are marked as unread. Does anyone know how I can sync my phone and computer so that everything I open on one device is open on the other device?

You need an IMAP account.
With an IMAP account, all server stored mailboxes are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
For received messages with a POP account, there is option to not remove the messages from the server when downloaded by each email client used to access the account. With the Mail.app on a Mac, this is available under the Advanced tab for the account preferences. There is a Never option for POP account preferences with the iPhone's Mail client.
You can email this message with an attachment to yourself to be received by the Mail.app on your Mac after selecting Never for removing messages from the server when downloaded by the iPhone's Mail client.
On your iPhone, go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select the POP account.
Select Advanced for the account settings.
Under the Incoming Settings section, select Never for delete from server.

Not syncing mail between iMac, iPhone, iCloud

I'm not syncing mail between devices.
Email sent with iMac doesn't show on iPhone (and vice versa).
No mail sent with either iMac or iPhone is showing on iCloud.
Please help!

AFTER I asked the question, then the answer presented itself in a list of previously asked questions! (And I had looked before too.) It involves "Signing Out" of iCloud with the iMac, and with the iPhone. Then I signed in again. It was scary (took a long time) getting the mail loaded again, but it seems to be working now.

Sync Mail between multiple devices

Can anyone help? I own a MacBook Pro, an iMac, an iPhone, and iPad. I have managed to sync mail between the iPhone and the iPad using Microsoft exchange, so that if I delete an e-mail on the phone or the iPad then it is deleted on the other.
However I can't sync the two computers in the same way, can anyone help and tell me how to sync Mail across all 4 units?
(I used Exchange because the e-mail account is a Hotmail account and I was told, that's the only way I can do it).
Regards and thanks in advance.
Colin

Microsoft publish the settings needed for Hotmail Imap, they work, use them.
They are:
For incoming connections:
Server address: "imap-mail.outlook.com"
Server port: "993"
Encryption type: "SSL"
For outgoing connections:
Server address: "smtp-mail.outlook.com"
Server port: "587"
Encryption type: "TLS" ("SSL" can be used if TLS is not an option)

Sync Mail between 2 mac's

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to sync Mail between my two mac's? Using .mac or some other avenue? I am not only using .mac email but also a POP server and g-mail. thanks!

Hi,
To sync mail between two macs (also with the web browser and iPhone) yo need to set up the email accounts using IMAP. .Mac is automatically set up as IMAP. For gmail account the setup instruction can be found at
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=81379
For POP server sync is not possible, you simply can read your email within an email client. Check with your email server, if they offer any IMAP access by any chance.
Read the following thread for better setup of an IMAP account,
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8007668#8007668
Other additional sync can be made using MobileMe in system preferences.

Problem syncing Mail between two computers

I know this is a well worn topic and I've read the posts on syncing mail between two computers. Overall, I've gotten it to work pretty well. Whenever I move from one computer to another, I copy my ~/Library/Mail folder to my thumbdrive and sync it w/ the same folder on my other computer before I fire up Mail on it.
But here's the problem: I rebuilt the "sent" mailbox on one of my computers (let's call it computer A). This apparently gives new message numbers to the messages. Things worked great on computer A after that.
Then I synced the mailbox with my other computer, computer B. On computer B, the change in mailbox numbers apparently was not recognized. Every message in the "sent" folder gave me the message that I needed to go online and download the message. So I rebuilt the "sent" mailbox on computer B. Things then worked great.
Then I synced back with computer A and the same thing happened. Every message in the sent folder gave me the "download from server message."
It seems that I'm in some sort of infinite loop. The rebuild on one computer is not recognized by the other computer. Clearly, there is some file somewhere that contains info that's not being conveyed when I sync the ~/Library/Mail folder.
Any suggestions??

That is interesting. To that effect I have thrown together this Applescript:
(CAUTION... do not run this script, experimental only!
set flashDrive to "FLASH"
tell application "System Events" to exists process "Mail.app"
if the result is true then tell application "Mail" to quit
-- copy files to mounted disk
do shell script "rm -r /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/"
do shell script "cp -r ~/Library/Mail /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/"
do shell script "cp ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/"
--copy files to userfolder
do shell script "rm -r ~/Library/Mail"
do shell script "cp -r /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail ~/Library/"
do shell script "cp /Volumes/" & flashDrive & "/Mail/com.apple.mail.plist ~/Library/Preferences/"
Problem is, I don't know how to tell the script which version of mail data is older or newer. If you know of such a way let me know and I'll script it in, otherwise the user is stuck with manually choosing what to copy to where.
And as we all know, any user choices are error-prone.

The difference between Lion and Mountain Lion

Can some one explain to me the difference between Lion and Mtn Lion? I'm currently 10.6.8 Is it beneficiall for me to upgrade?

Mountain Lion is an enhanced version of previous OS X and so that is Mavericks.
About upgrading it all depends on what your needs are and if your hardware supports it.

Please check also applications compatibility. From Lion onward, you cannot run PPC application.

Is it possible to install Lion on the second hard disk on my Mini (2010) Snow Leopard Server, and switch between Lion and Snow Leopard? I like those voices Lion has in speech.

When baltwosaid NO emphatically, that was described as CORRECT ANSWER. Ditto in the caeses of the radically different answers from Camelotand Matt Clifton
Could it be that CORRECT ANSWER needs better defining by Apple?
That apart, yes, switching might involve rebooting. About the voices, well, I was the other day adding voice to a commentary in a video I was working on. There's only American English accent in SL — Lion I believe has British ones as well.
Why not, I wondered, try to install Lion purely for academic interest, maybe with an SD card (Sandisk Ultra II, 16GB) as Tom Nelson says is possible at http://macs.about.com/od/macoperatingsystems/ss/Perform-A-Clean-Install-Of-Os-X- Lion-On-Your-Mac.htm

Why can't I use WebCT chat with my computer? I get the 'spiral of death' every time I try to type in my chat. I have a feeling it has to do with compatibility issues between Java and Tiger.

45 min long session of log file sync waits between 5000 and 20000 ms

45 min long log file sync waits between 5000 and 20000 ms
Encountering a rather unusual performance issue. Once every 4 hours I am seeing a 45 minute long log file sync wait event being reported using Spotlight on Oracle. For the first 30 minutes the event wait is for approx 5000 ms, followed by an increase to around 20000 ms for the next 15 min before rapidly dropping off and normal operation continues for the next 3 hours and 15 minutes before the cycle repeats itself. The issue appears to maintain it's schedule independently of restarting the database. Statspack reports do not show an increase in commits or executions or any new sql running during the time the issue is occuring. We have two production environments both running identicle applications with similar usage and we do not see the issue on the other system. I am leaning towards this being a hardware issue, but the 4 hour interval regardless of load on the database has me baffled. If it were a disk or controller cache issue one would expect to see the interval change with database load.
I cycle my redo logs and archive them just fine with log file switches every 15-20 minutes. Even during this unusally long and high session of log file sync waits I can see that the redo log files are still switching and are being archived.
The redo logs are on a RAID 10, we have 4 redo logs at 1 GB each.
I've run statspack reports on hourly intervals around this event:
Top 5 Wait Events
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wait % Total
Event Waits Time (cs) Wt Time
log file sync 756,729 2,538,034 88.47
db file sequential read 208,851 153,276 5.34
log file parallel write 636,648 129,981 4.53
enqueue 810 21,423 .75
log file sequential read 65,540 14,480 .50
And here is a sample while not encountering the issue:
Top 5 Wait Events
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wait % Total
Event Waits Time (cs) Wt Time
log file sync 953,037 195,513 53.43
log file parallel write 875,783 83,119 22.72
db file sequential read 221,815 63,944 17.48
log file sequential read 98,310 18,848 5.15
db file scattered read 67,584 2,427 .66
Yes I know I am already tight on I/O for my redo even during normal operations yet, my redo and archiving works just fine for 3 hours and 15 minutes (11 to 15 log file switches). These normal switches result in a log file sync wait of about 5000 ms for about 45 seconds while the 1GB redo log is being written and then archived.
I welcome any and all feedback.

Lee,
log_buffer = 1048576 we use a standard of 1 MB for our buffer cache, we've not altered the setting. It is my understanding that Oracle typically recommends that you not exceed 1MB for the log_buffer, stating that a larger buffer normally does not increase performance.
I would agree that tuning the log_buffer parameter may be a place to consider; however, this issue last for ~45 minutes once every 4 hours regardless of database load. So for 3 hours and 15 minutes during both peak usage and low usage the buffer cache, redo log and archival processes run just fine.
A bit more information from statspack reports:
Here is a sample while the issue is occuring.

Sync config between active and standby CSM

Is there a way to sync config between active and standby CSMs? Just as one that in CSS.
How about two SSL Service module in two different 6500 chassis?
Thanks.

HI,
there is right now no command to commit redundancy between two CSM-Modules. Maybe in the future there will be one. Okay in regards of sync the only way is to check for redundancy is the show mod csm x ft command. But be aware that some slight differences like a real not being in service are sometimes not recognized.
In regards of the SSLModule there is no way as far as I know to sync them. This won't be present in the future in my opinion as there are certificates which require a password or something like that and one won't be able to do redundncy without those passwords. So In my opinion no way to sync two SSL-Module because of security issues.
Kind regards,
Joerg

Syncing styles between Word and RH HTML 7

Question about syncing styles between Word and RH HTML 7.The
printed Word format has Hdr/Ftr, TOC, Title Page stuff.
I understood that, when importing a Word .docx, RH creates
books for Heading 1s and Topic headings are Heading 2. That is why
both Word and RH templates use the same paragraph style names
(though the format in Word/print differs from that in RH/online).
I imported my Word file into a new RH HTML 7 project. The TOC
has the expected books/topics/subtopics. I imported the .css and
the .htt from the RH 5 template project. I selected all 160 topics
in the Topic List pod and applied the corporate .htt template
(Topic Properties > General) AND (to be certain), the corporate
.css stylesheet (Topic Properties . Appearance).
This project doesn't have the same characteristics as the
base/master from RH 5 that uses those same format files. I even
imported the same skin. I get the banner, but not the styles.
All the topic headings in the RH 7 project (were transformed
to) are Heading 1 styles, even though they were Heading 2s in Word.
(this breaks with my tribal knowledge of how RH imports
Books/Topics from a Word doc). The heading colors (navy blue, royal
blue, etc.) have taken on their own definitions--dunno where from,
tho.
Since I'm OCD about creating and using one style for each
type of paragraph (procedurehead, syntax, procnum, procnonum, note,
bullist) in Word or in RH, Peter Grainger's suggestion to "clean
up" styles before importing shouldn't apply.
RH instructions omit any detail about what to specifiy in the
Conversion Options and Split On Style. I took a couple of swipes at
the SOS--OK, split on Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3. So I get
Books for Heading 1, separate topics for Heading 2 and Heading 3,
but the "topic titles" have become Heading 1 in name but not in
format. In fact, the format doesn't match anything I've specified
in Word or RH. I thought by "attaching" the .htt and the .css to
each topic (select all topics, , I'd have the look and feel I
specified in my corporate RH(5) template. The banner imported, the
navigation pane and icons imported. What happened to the styles?
Here's the missing link that someone may need to explain
(explicitly in Help somewhere). When I open the .htt template
(sample topic) that I imported from RH 5, the topic title shows as
Document > Heading 2 > in the Design view. The HTML view
labels this paragraph as h2:
<!doctype HTML public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0

<h2>NameOfPackage: NameOfMethod</h2>

Hi Jim,
Don't know how useful my question is now, given that you posted over a year ago.
Do your RH X5 Word source docs use styles? If so, take a look here, and I detail how I have been able to import from RH X5 for Word to RH 7 HTML. (I'm currently still working on a leftover issue with Keywords and Subkeywords.)
One thing I have done which probably helped: while applying new standards to our documentation, we have removed almost all images (screen shots, etc.), and have only retained those images which don't have a text equivalent. The drastically reduced the import file size of my Word source docs. All my images were referenced via TrueCode, but upon importing to RH 7 HTML, there was so much less to be processed by RH 7 HTML, that the import went much more easily and quickly.
I hope this helps,
Marjorie
