Sync Rules driving me crazy.

I am some trouble with sync rules.
Login and logout rules are
Inculde
~/Desktop
~/Documents
~/Library
Exclude
Starts With Exchange-
Starts With Exchange IMAP-
Starts With Mail/IMAP-
Starts With Mac-
Starts With POP-
Starts With VW Backup
Full Path ~/Music

Full Path ~/.SymAVQSFile
Full Path ~/.Trash
Full Path ~/.Trashes
Full Path ~/Library/Application Support/SyncServices
Full Path ~/Library/Caches
Full Path ~/Library/Logs

Background Sync Rules are:

~/Desktop
~/Documents

From what I can figure out if the back gournd rules are not set the system will sync everything in the user folder.
This was all working correctly, but now I have some users that I am moving form local users to portable users.
On the login and logout the sync is scanning the ~/Documents/Microsoft User Data folder and finding Entourage databases that are still in use but being moved away from. It sits there going through a copy type process where it will take 10min or so to copy up an entourage database, but in the end does not actually copy it and carries on syncing the rest of the data it needs to.
So it is working correctly, although my login logout process is being extended by about 10 15 minutes because it is having to look at this entourage database file.
Does any one know why it would be doing this and how to stop it.
Server is on 10.5.8

Hi,
YOu could check the log file whether the ~/Documents/Microsoft Data folder is still excluded.
If it is snot in the log (as excluded) you need to reset the sync list on the local computer.
I find it the easiest way to just delete the ~/.FileSync folder from both client and server. (be sure to do this when the user is 'not' logged on)
If it is excluded, well, then I have similar problems. I recently made a change to the exclusion list and now it seems that almost everything is synced even though files are excluded..

  • Audio out of Sync is driving me crazy

    In the past I have been criticized for going back to tape too often just to consolidate a bunch of short clips. So this time I kept my new project to the absolute minimum until it was all done.
    #1 - import 16 bit tape for new project (Option move from Pane to Viewer)
    #2 - Edit 3 or 4 clips into about 50 clips
    #3 - Share 100 clips to tape (resultant 16 bit tape out of sync)
    #4 - Import tape to get 2.4 clips totaling 22 min (out of sync)
    This is the absolute minimum of back and forth, yet (again) my audio on tape is lagging at 3 sec out of sync. No titles, effects, or transitions were used. I have not changed a thing since the import. How can I fix it?
    What can Extract Audio, Scroll to Playhead, Paste Over at Playhead, Restore Clip, and Lock Audio at Playhead do for me? I have never tried using any of them. Can audio be separated from picture and shifted in time? If so is it done by the clip or all clips at one time?

    The problem:
    http://www.dvformat.com/htm/features/2000/800/dv_formatfaq.htm
    (Scroll down about two thirds to "What's the difference between locked and unlocked audio?" )
    The solution:
    Always use 16-bit/48kHz audio.

  • IDisk syncing error driving me crazy!

    Every time my iDisk syncs, it fails and I get an error message saying that a file can't be found. I know I deleted that file a few days ago. I looked on all my other computers and searched spotlight and can't find anything. I deleted some of the preferences related to syncing, and now because of this I can't sync my iDisk at all! I signed out and back into my mobile me account. I reset iSync and reset sync data in preferences.
    Can anyone PLEASE HELP? Thanks.

    You can try this simple fix -
    Quit DW.
    Find this folder -
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
    8\Configuration\WinFileCache-*.dat
    (these folders are normally hidden - you may have to use
    Explorer > Tools >
    Folder Options to unhide them)
    or on Mac -
    Library/Application Support/Macromedia/Dreamweaver
    8/Configuration/MacFileCache-*.dat
    and delete it.
    Restart DW. Works better?

  • Outlook sync is driving me crazy

    I've been trying to get Outlook and iPhone to sync reliably since I got it. Initially it synced correctly. Then it stopped syncing calendar and contacts (it has never synced email).
    I have been through the technical note on how to fix sync problems. I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it. That fixed the problem -- for one day. The problem returned. I went through the uninstall and reinstall again. Again, fixed for one day (approximately). I tried doing a repair install. Fixed again, for one day.
    I'm now stumped. Maybe Apple will update the tech note on what to do if the tech note's steps don't fix the problem permanently. But I'm not holding my breath.

    Damon,
    That is the article that I used. Resetting sync history did not help.
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes fixes it briefly. It works for a few syncs, then stops working again. Removing and reinstalling again fixes it for a few cycles, but the problem still comes back. This is not a practical workaround.

  • Apple TV Syncing Issues Driving Me Crazy!

    Hi All :o)
    I've had my ATV from launch and it has hardly had any problems at all but since the latest software update and the latest Time Capsule update i have had nothing but trouble at least two to three times a week my ATV forgets all and has to re-sync everything its now to the stage where i cant be bothered to use it?
    My question is has anyone with this set up found this issue? and does anyone know if apple is AWARE of this issue?
    Any one with any ideas would be a great help cheers all :o)

    Hello, I have had both the ATV and Time Capsule running and done all the updates whenever they came out and have never had that happen, except when I accidentally unchecked 'all' in iTunes and it had to re-synch, but that was me clicking things I wasn't aware of. So sorry, can't help, it works for me.

    Hello joelfromn. charleston,
    It seems you are unable to activate iMessage on a device with no carrier service. The following article provides information regarding activation issues:
    If you get an error when trying to activate iMessage or FaceTime - Apple Support
    Check your device settings
    Make sure that you’re connected to a cellular data or Wi-Fi network. If you're using an iPhone, you'll need SMS messaging to activate your phone number with iMessage and FaceTime. Depending on your carrier, you might be charged for this SMS.
    Go to Settings > General > Date & Time and make sure that your time zone is set up correctly.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.

  • Auto Sync driving me crazy!

    Hi can anyone help me.
    Im using LR CC and when i select 2 or more images in develop module and make changes (when auto sync is selected) only my visible image changes (not all selected images).
    what am I doing wrong? its driving me crazy!!
    any advice appreciated
    Andrew

    Never heard of such a thing - are you sure auto-sync is enabled in develop module?
    Note: Develop module and Library module both have a separate auto-sync control (i.e. one can be enabled and the other disabled).
    Are you saying that the other images are not appearing changed (previews in filmstrip not being updated), or their settings are not being changed (develop settings unaltered).

  • Every time I sync my Iphone 5c(with ios 8) to Itunes, it 1. deletes all of my purchased music 2. deletes all of my album artwork 3. replaces all of my deleted songs. please help! this is driving me crazy!

    Every time I sync my Iphone 5c(with ios 8) to Itunes, it 1. deletes all of my purchased music 2. deletes all of my album artwork 3. replaces all of my deleted songs. please help! this is driving me crazy! It syncs 100+ songs, when I only want to sync 1! I'm running Itunes 11.3.1.2

    After having experienced similar problems and having it back to work, I have a few suggestions:
    - Try to find out if the syncing stops at a particular track or song. That might - out of the blue - have gotten corrupted in one way or another. Since that song will not be on the iPod, iTunes will try over and over to put it on and crash in one way or another;
    - reformat the iPod as described in the iTunes 9 crash-thread. It takes time (at first it seems to do nothing, but that is because the green bar is moving with very small steps);

  • Mail 2.1.3 on Tiger: mutiples of everything is driving me crazy!

    Hi, I recently had to reformat my hard drive and thus have been trying to reinstall all my email accounts (which I had backed up). I am using MAIL 2.1.3.
    I have several questions (this is driving me crazy!!):
    When I imported the archived files, it created new mailboxes but DID NOT reinstall my mail in it's corresponding email account file (i.e: i have an email account for incoming mail with "username", and then far below I have a mailbox (for EACH account, and I have about 7) which contains all my old mail. I can't seem to merge the two.
    When I recreated my useraccounts (most of which are gmail), I followed online instructions and created all my accounts using IMAP, since my first attempt using the POP version of these same accounts would NOT SEND OUT any of my Gmail mail. Now, for EACH ACCOUNT, not only do I have a "regular mailbox", I have the same "imported" from my old version, AND a third folder under "IMAP".... All this is REALLY driving me crazy!!
    All I want to achieve is what i had before : one version of each of my email accounts, including Gmail, that both recieve AND send mail. Nothing more.
    On the my other computer (leopard) Mail configures itself and everything works: it's bliss!!!
    Can anyone help me clear up this mess (also because as a result everything is SLOW!!)
    Infinite thanks,
    Nicaru

    Thanks BDAqua, Unfortunately I did not do a very good job explaining myself.
    I am not trying to sync two computers (Tiger/Leopard). The Leopard comment was just me venting that it was so much a better program than Tiger....
    No, what I want is simply to recreate my Mail Client the way it looked before: with one inbox per username, a single Sent/Draft/Outgoing mailbox and that's all!!
    Instead for each username I have "normal" Inboxes, PLUS imported folders (each with their own Inbox/Sent/Draft mailboxes) PLUS IMAP folders again with their own individual Inbox/Sent/Draft mailboxes). My homepage when I open Mail contains something like 21 folders, whereas I only want the 7 (one per username).
    This whole thing came about because when I tried to import my old mailboxes (pre-formatting my mac) they imported as separate folders whereas I wanted them to merge into their respective accounts.
    The other issue I had (originally) which led to this mess is that none of my Gmail accounts would SEND mail (receiving is Ok) so I followed the online IMAP instructions and this is where I got triplets....
    Gosh, I don't know how else to explain it... If it's still not clear perhaps I should just erase everything and start from scratch??
    Thanks again,
    Nicaru

  • Calender driving me crazy

    Hi
    Can some one tell me how to stop the following time zone craziness. Can some one tell me how to stop the times of meetings from being changed automatically when you move from one time zone to another. Eg I live in Adelaide and I am travelling to Melbourne. I book a meeting for 2pm in Melbourne. When i arrive in Melbourne the time of the meeting is changed to the meeting time less the time zone change. Its madness and it is driving me crazy. Also the program also duplicates meetings when you move from time zone to time zone. There must be a way to stop this

  • My i tunes won't open. i keep getting error7 (windows error 193) . contacted microsoft(thought it was a windows thing...not) have uninstalled itunes and everything related to it ,re installed and message still comes up. Help please,driving me crazy.

    help. my iTunes wont open. I keep getting the message error7 (windows error 193). contacted Microsoft they said contact iTunes support. I have uninstalled all iTunes componets and then reinstalled everything but message still comes up... its driving me crazy.

    If it's a Windows error, it's typically going to be a Microsoft problem. Uninstall any security software you have and if you have a restore point for your PC, you may want to restore your PC back to when iTunes was working normally. If none of those work you would need to contact Microsoft and demand help.

  • How do I stop iTunes from automatically sorting by Album Artist?  Driving me crazy.

    How do I stop iTunes from automatically sorting by Album Artist?  Driving me crazy.
    I listen to primarily classical music
    All of my music was very deliberatley titled by composers "Last Name, First Name" as the artist.
    iTunes is changing it to the Album Artist.  I have to go in and delete that information - AND THEN IT LATER REVERTS IT BACK!!!
    Hours have been wasted and I am feeling so ticked.
    Any help?

    Purchased or ripped media?
    If these are ripped mp3s then another possibility is multiple embedded tags. iTunes works best with a single ID3v2.3 tag. Some software creates both an ID3v1.0 and IDv2.x tag. With multiple tags it is not certain which iTunes reads or which it updates, and any device may choose differently. Once songs have the correct info. in iTunes you can use Convert ID3 Tags... None several times, then Convert ID3 Tags... v2.3. The process removes any embedded art but otherwise preserves the data that iTunes knows. You could use my script CreateFolderArt before and after to save and then restore the artwork.
    In the long run you may be better off populating Album Artist properly with a copy of whatever is currently in Artist. My script CopyArtistToAlbumArtist can do this effectively.

  • How to configure sync rules involving a CSV file and portal self service

    Hello,
     I need to configure some FIM sync rules for the following scenario:
     User account details are entered from a HR CSV file and exported to AD  Users have the ability to modify their own AD attributes in the
    FIM portal (there is not a requirement for them to view their  HR CSV data in the portal). The FIM portal modifications will be exported to AD as expected.  
    My setup is as follows:
    CSV file - name, last name, employee ID, address.
    CSV MA - has direct attribute flows configured in the MA between the data source and MV Portal self service attributes –      
    users can edit mobile, display name and photo
    I've also set the CSV MA as precedent for the attributes
    FIM MA – attribute flows defined for MV to Data Source as usual (i.e. firstname to firstname, accountname to accountname, etc).
    AD MA – no attribute flows defined as inbound and outbound sync rules have been configured in the portal using the Set\MPR\Triple.
    I’m thinking of using the following run profiles:
    CSV MA – full import and delta sync (imports HR data)
    FIM MA –  export and delta import (imports portal changes)
    FIM MA – delta sync (syncs any portal changes)
    AD MA – export and delta import
    If my understanding is correct this should sync HR data from CSV to AD, as well as user attribute self service updates from the portal to AD.
    If I wanted to just do a HR CSV sync could I get away with just steps 1 & 4 ? (presumably not as my rules are in the FIM portal?)
    If I wanted to do just a portal sync, could I get away steps 2-4?
    Any advice on how to improve my setup is much appreciated - cheers
    IT Support/Everything

    The truth is that your design should be done in the way that it doesn't matter which profiles in which order you will execute. At the end, if you will run all import, synch and export profiles on each data source you should get same result. This is beauty
    of synch engine here.
    Your steps from 1-4 will synch data to your data sources and at the end will give you expected result. But not because of the order you are executing them but because of correct attribute flows. If flows from CSV file and from FIM portal might be done for
    the same attributes you need to think also about attribute precedence.
