Sync Smart Groups and Smart Mailboxes across network

Is there a way to Sync my Smart Groups in Addressbook and Smart Mailboxes in Mac Mail across my Macbook and My iMac? I have iCloud.
It would be nice if I did not have to duplicate these "Smart" groups on each computer.
Thanks Mac Community.

Can you just type out the criteria of the smart group, or post a screen shot of the smart group.
With all the editorializing, I can't figure out what you want to do.
Where are the contacts in the groups, iCloud or On My Mac?

After restarting my Laptop Firefox forgot althoug it's synced all groups and tabs. There is no error message concerning the sync behaviour.

It seems, that the sync server forgot all my tabs and groups, as Firefox dooesn't report any error. Any ideas?

Remove the SYNC and reconnect it.
Check the SYNC log

Sending and recieving packets across network

In my work, I had to send raw packets across the network. I had developed a program in Java using Socket class. It is sending packets but not recieving any.
Please give me a solution for the same.

import java.net.*;
import java.io.*;
public class SocketExample
public static void main(String args[]) throws UnknownHostException
try{
byte b[] = new byte[20];
b[0] = 0x00;
b[1] = 0x6e;
b[2] = 0x04;
b[3] = 0x7f;
b[4] = 0x74;
b[5] = 0x5b;
b[6] = 0x7e;
b[7] = 0x72;
b[8] = 0x59;
b[9] = 0x7a;

Socket skt = new Socket(inet,1025);
skt.getOutputStream().write(b,0,19);
System.out.println("Written the bytes");
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(skt.getInputStream());
byte c[] = new byte[20];
int k = dis.read(c,0,19);
System.out.println(k);

Mail Smart Folders across accounts / between Macs

OS X Mail Smart Folders are very useful, but I have one problem:
My "Unread" folder between accounts and Macs has two criteria: Unread, plus on one account, not in a certain Inbox. Now, the mail account that I use for that 2nd criteria is only set up for use on one account. I have 2 accounts on my Mac Pro and 1 account on my MBP. When I check my Mail Unread folder on the other account and other Mac, the Unread folder syncs across iCloud, but since that email account I use for the 2nd criteria is not set up (active) on the other account / Mac, the Unread folder essentially breaks. If I edit it, then it breaks on the other user account where that 2nd criteria is effective.
Does that make sense? Anyone else having iCloud Mail Smart Folder sync issues across accounts / Macs?
Running OS X Yosemite all up to date on everything.

iCloud does not support or sync Smart Mailboxes or local folders. You can create mailboxes at the iCloud.com site that will be IMAP and show in the Mail sidebar under the iCloud folder. Those will show up on all devices.
Other than that, iCloud will only sync Mail's main mailboxes (default mailboxes).
In Addition to better explain:
Local folders under On My Mac are folders only located on the computer. They are not part of any IMAP or Exchange account.
Smart Mailboxes are for the most part just search engines. Messages are not stored in those, but they merely point to messages which actually reside in the original mailbox where they are stored.

Sync mailboxes across macs

Hey,
Just wondering if it is possible to sync mailboxes across macs without having to subscribe to .mac?? Is it possible if they are on the same network but NOT connected to the internet??
Crazy

There are 2 different things at work here:
The .Mac Mail sync does not sync the contents of mailboxes that exist on your Mac. It only syncs Mail rules and Mail preferences across different Macs. It does not sync messages.
IMAP or .Mac type access to .Mac email account. If all of your folders exist on the .Mac mail server and you have your Mac configured to access the .Mac mail account as a .Mac type or IMAP type, you will be able to see the same messages in those folders regardless of which Mac you are at.

AP groups and redundancy

Is it possible for APs to failover between controllers when AP groups are in use? I have seen separate documentation on AP groups and AP failover but nothing that says how to implement both at the same time.
I have tried to work it out but when I created the group on the back up controller I am not able to add the AP to the group as it is not asociated to it.
Has anyone else come across this or have any ideas?
We are currently using 4400 controllers running 5.2.

Are your controllers in the same mobility group? (Controller|General|Default Mobility Name)
You can also check under Controller|Mobility Management|Mobility Groups to see if other controllers are set up to exchange Mobility Management info.
If you are in the same Mobility Management group then when failover to another member/controller in that group occurs and the AP Group name is the same on both controllers the APs should automatically join that AP Group name on the controller they failed over to.
Our implementation (still in the early stages) includes 8 WiSMs Controllers that are in the same Mobility Management group and will fail across campuses if we lose a WiSM module or chassis.
We will be using smaller controllers (4402's) at remote sites with their own Mobility Name. That is to prevent constantly exchanging client info with other controllers over wan links. If/when those failover to the main campus they will wind up being in the AP Group default-group on the WiSM environment.

I need to transfer the Smart Mailboxes I have set up on one computer to another computer. Both are running 10.8.4 and Mail 6.3. None of the old solutions are viable since there is no longer a 'Mail' folder in the User account.

I acquired a new iMac, and need to transfer the Smart Mialboxes I have set up on my Mac Pro to the iMac. Mail is already set up to sync thorough iCloud, but the Smart mailboxes are - apparently - set up for individual machines. The only solutions I have been able to locate involve moving Preference files from one machine to the other; the problem is that there is no longer a 'Mail' folder set up for individual Users (actually there is no Mail folder at ALL under 10.8.4), and I am unable to locate any .plist files for Mail at all. Any idea how to make this haoppen?

Create a new smart mailbox. Does it sync? If not, do as below.
Back up all data.
1. Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/Bundles
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder may open, or you may get an error message that the item can't be found. Either result is normal. If the folder does open and has contents, move the contents to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and test. If there's no change, put the contents of the folder back and quit Mail again.
2. Repeat with this line:
/Library/Mail/Bundles
This time you may be prompted for your login password when you remove the items. Make sure they're removed from the folder and not just copied to the Desktop. If necessary, copy them first and then move the originals to the Trash.

Can I sync Mailboxes? Or do they need to be Smart Mailboxes?

Hi all,
Awhile back (sometime during OSX 10.3 or so), I set up several different mailboxes in Mail to help me organize my emails. For example, I have one mailbox dedicated to receipts that have been emailed to me, which I keep indefinitely for tax purposes. Another mailbox is for a certain email discussion list I belong to, in which I keep certain emails with information I'd like to keep on hand.
Now, fast forward to today. I use both my G4 iMac and my Intel iMac to check for mail. And, of course, my inboxes are perfectly synchronized. However, not so with my mailboxes. For example, if, on my G4, I drag an emailed receipt from my inbox to my "receipts" mailbox, the email doesn't show up at all when I open up Mail on my Intel iMac, since it's no longer in my Inbox. So, there's no way to access the receipt from that computer. I have to boot up my G4 iMac to access that particular email.
Is there a way to sync my mailboxes up? Or do I need to periodically archive my mailboxes on one computer and restore those archives on my other computer to do a type of "manual sync" between the two computers?
Or, should I just change them all over to Smart Mailboxes? Smart Mailboxes will sync up automatically won't they? And I can drag emails from my inbox to a smart mailbox, right?
Thanks for your help!
Kevin

The answer should actually be in your Mail's built in Help system.
Assuming you're using a MobileMe email account it's very easy to keep your folders in sync as long as you use IMAP. I may be wrong but it sounds like the mailboxes you're trying to sync are in fact stored on your Mac and not in the server. in the list of mailboxes in Mail do you see the mailboxes listed under "MY MOBILEME" or "ON MY MAC"?
Smart mailboxes are just mailboxes that automatically gather together emails that match the criteria specified by you.
In Apple Mail Help search for "mailboxes" for lots of info about mailboxes, including syncing. Also search for "IMAP" if you don't know what that is.
If you're using another email service other than MobileMe then you can still do the automatic syncing of mailboxes if IMAP is supported. Gmail for example supports it.

Can One Sync a Smart Mailbox to .Mac???

I use a smart mailbox for all emails that need attending (if message is flagged.& if in Inbox) now, I would like to have that "smart" folder sync to my .mac account somehow, as it is IMAP there must be a way... any ideas?
I realise anything in my .mac account, which is in my inbox stays online too, but i have three main mail accounts...
A long shot... but ideally i'd like to be able to remove the flag from .mac (online)
Any Ideas.... Anyone?
I've already searched Robg's site & googl'd it!
Dual 2 G5 4.5gb & 12" PB 1Ghz Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Say for example I want to put different car related podcasts in one smart playlist. Car related podcasts such as Wall Street Journal Car Cast and NPR Car Talk. Can it be done and if so how?

Multiple Groups of Conditions in Smart Mailboxes

In Yosemite Mail is it possible to create more than one group of conditions for a smart mailbox?
In iTunes, when creating smart playlists, you can press OPTION while clicking on the '+' sign to add conditions. A new group of conditions can be added.
I do not see anything similar in Mail.
Thanks,
b.

I think you miss the point.
I'm looking to make a smart mailbox to show mail with
(Condition A AND Condition B)
OR
(Condition A AND Condition C)
OR
(Condition X AND Condition Y)
Thanks,

Linking addresses in a Smart Mailbox to a Smart Group

I hav set up a Smart Mailbox for replies to a question that I posted on LinkedIn. I have received eight or so replies and I want to reply to all the people who answered my question in one email. Is there a quick way to transfer all the addresses into a smart group so that I can send one email to all in that smart group?

Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has an Add Addresses script that may or may not do what you’re looking for.

My smart mailboxes are not synchronising between my iMac and my Macbook air

Hi, I have an iMac running OS X 10.9.5 and a Macbook Air running OS X 10.9.5. I predominately use my iMac, but when I travel or out of the office I take my Macbook Air. I can see my smart mailboxes on both machines, but the content is missing on the majority of my smart mailboxes on my Macbook Air.
Oddly enough, I recently created a new smart mailbox (in the last three weeks) and the content of this mailbox is synchronised in both machines. I not sure how to fix this so as I have all smart folders synchronised on both machines.
Thanks in advance.
Dolores

Thanks, I knew that though and nothing was happening.
However, since I asked the question my documents have started to sync. No idea why, nothing has changed in my settings apart from a restart of all devices...but it's working so issue solved!

Difference between Smart Mailbox and Smart Mailbox Folder

What are the reason(s) for using one over the other?

I know it's a bit less than obvious, but they're not equivalent or an "either/or". A "Smart Mailbox Folder" allows you to put your Smart Mailboxes into folders for grouping purposes. For instance, you could have a Smart Mailbox that collects all your messages to and from a friend of yours named "Sam", one that collected message to and from "Frieda", etc. and collect them all in a Smart Mailbox Folder titled "Friends". It's strictly an organization thing, for your own convenience, sort of like putting playlists in folders in iTunes, if you're familiar with that. If you only have a couple of Smart Mailboxes, a Smart Mailbox Folder probably won't be of much help, but if you have a bunch of Smart Mailboxes, organizing them into folders might be useful.
Hope this explains things.
Regards.

"Recipient is a member of group" smart mailbox??

Hello,
I'd like all mails to and from a group to be collected in a smart mailbox. That option is not in the smart mailbox widget. Can anyone suggest a work around?
This would allow me, for example, to build a smart group (in Address Book) with a company name and automatically put all e-correspondence with that group in one smart `box.
Thanks,
Chris

If you create a smart mailbox and select meets conditions: ANY at the top you can: Add two rules:
1. Recipient - contains - <company.com>
2. From - contains - <company.com>
That's a work around that doesn't involve groups in the address book. I've found that mixing smart mailboxes rules and address book groups does not work well. Hope this helps.

Smart mailbox from group contacts

I need to create a smart mailbox from a group in my address book but i have not found a way to do it.. the only way i see is adding each contact separately. can any one please help w/ these
Thanks in advanced

Yes, I realise that, but it was a rhetorical request intended to flag up what I perceive as a glaring omission in Apple's email application. Filtered mail -- whether by rules or by Smart boxes -- is handled differently (in terms of condition choices) depending on whether the message is an outgoing one or an incoming one, and I can't understand why that should be.
If there is a logical reason for it then I would like to know what it is, is all.
