Synchronization on one computer.

Hi,
I reinstall my operating system after crash, installing firefox and configure synchronization using my Sync Key, but this something not working, where are my bookmarks, settings, passwords?
May well something wrong understand? Synchronization not working on one computer, need two or more?
Will possible retrieval my bookmarks, settings?

Hi!
Sorry to read that. Unfortunately, Firefox Sync is not a back up service and the information is stored in the servers only temporarily so the rest of your devices can get the information.

    How do I tell my iPad to only synchronize with one computer? I can change settings before connecting to another computer, or I can slide the sync bar quickly when I connect to another computer. But I'd like to make a setting and not worry.

  • How can I synchronize safely from more than one computer?

    First, I have set up my iPod to work with two computers: my primary computer, which is my desktop at home. Later, I also "authorized" my laptop (as a secondary source) to also be able sync to my iPod.
    My question is that when I go to synchronize some podcasts I just downloaded to my secondary computer (my laptop), I get the following prompt: "Are you sure you want to sync podcasts? All existing podcsts on the iPod '<my iPod's name>' will be replaced with podcasts from your iTunes library."
    From this message, since my iPod is plugged into my laptop, I assume it's referring to my iTunes library on my laptop (which only has the few podcasts I just downloaded). And it sounds like it's going to delete the podcasts that are already on my iPod.
    I definitely don't want it to "replace" the ones I already have sync'd from my home computer; +_I just want to add the ones I have downloaded to my laptop._+ How can I make it so I can safely add the new ones without disturbing those I already have sync'd and want to keep? I'm a bit confused about how syncing works when you have more than one computer to sync to the iPod.

    You cannot do what you want.
    The ipod touch can sync with ONE computer/library at a time.
    When you sync to a different computer/library, the ipod touch will first delete the current itunes content form the iphone, then it will sync the content from the new computer.
    This is the way it is designed.

  • ITunes library synchronization across multiple users on one computer

    I've got a PC running MS XP/Home, with a separate user account for each family member. I also repointed all the iTunes library file pointers to the SAME file on the "D" hard drive (taking all that pressure off the "C" drive, which is filling up!)--so each iTunes incarnation for each user points to the same (master) file.
    But when I download music from the Music Store into the library from my user account, it doesn't show up in the iTunes library listing when my daughter logs in using her account--and she can't download it to her iPod.
    Why? I bought it for her; why should she have to download it? It's all on one computer!
    Is it that iTunes really can't handle multiple users on one computer??????? I don't get it...this isn't any copyright or license issue.
    I'd appreciate any tips to get the iTunes on one user's account to "restudy" the library to see if it's been changed by another user. We're all one family on our one computer!

  • How to synchronize Nano and 30Gig on one computer

    I have been using a new 30 Gig Ipod with no problems. My husband just got a 2 Gig Nano, and my iTunes software is not recognizing his Nano Ipod. If I install the software off the Nano cd, will it screw up my current software, music, etc.? Is the Itunes software different for each Ipod? How can I fix this - Please help!

    You shouldn't need to use the CD, as the software that came with your iPod should include nano software -- altough you might want to download the newest version if yours isn't updated (06-28-06).

  • Sync with more than one computer

    Is it possible to sync with more than one computer using the same Blackberry Curve 8310? I have a work pc and a laptop and I am using MS Outlook. I've tried syncing to both but the appointments all duplicate themselves. Is there a way to set it up so I can sync to both.

    Hello Keithj,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums
    You can synchronize with multiple computers but there are a few considerations to take into account when doing so.

  • Auto sync iPod on one computer, manually manage on other?

    I would like to be able to auto-sync my playlists to my iPod on one computer, but manually manage them on another.
    I have my iPod set to auto-update with my music library at home, but when I use it on my G5 at work, all my songs are grayed out and I can't play them. I don't have any songs on the work computer itself; I just want to be able to use iTunes to play what's on my iPod.
    It seems that the preference to auto vs manual update is for the iPod itself, not for iTunes on each computer.
    Is there any way short of changing the preferences each time to do what I want to do? Am I missing something totally obvious?
    Cheers!
    Katy

    It may be that both systems think they "own" your iPod. I don't know if this will help, but give this a try:
    First, make sure that your home system is set to auto-sync and that it's synchronizing to your iPod correctly.
    Then, on your work system:
    1) locate the iTunes Library file (it normally will be in your users Home -> Music -> iTunes folder) and delete the folder.
    2) While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Command and Option keys. This should stop the iPod from auto synching with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
    3) Set the iPod preferences to manual synchronization. You should then, of course, be able to play tracks from your iPod.
    Take the iPod home and connect it to your home system. If luck holds, it will then not switch it to manual.
    Again, I don't know if this will help, but it's worth a try. Let us know if it works.
    Good luck.

  • Two users, two Palms, one computer

    Hi all -
    I have a Palm device that I've been using with iSync, iCal and Address Book successfully for some time. My husband just got a Palm, and I'm trying to decide the best strategy for us to be able to sync with our one computer. It would be nice for us to be able to share addresses and calendar events sometimes, but not essential, I suppose. We don't have a .mac account.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    You do not need a .Mac account to synchronize anything but additional Macintosh desktop and portable computers.
    You can either add an additional Palm device to the single account you likely share on this one computer, or you can create a second Mac OS X user account on your computer and synchronize the second Palm device with it.
    The advantage of sharing the same account is that you will be able to share contact and calendaring data. The distinct disadvantage is that any addition, change or deletion of any information on your respective Palm devices will be propagated though your synchronization pool, affecting the Address Book, iCal and your other Palm device. You can limit the potential 'interference' or 'damage' by carefully choosing which individual calendars and contact groups are synchronized by each of you. Those configuration options are controlled for each device in a drop-down configuration pane for each device.
    Be sure that you choose a unique HotSync name for the second Palm device and overwrite its contents during the initial synchronization event. If it contains contact or calendaring records that are unique, enter those records by hand into the Address Book and iCal so that they are not lost when the second device is overwritten.

  • Multiple ipods belonging to multiple family members on one computer

    How do I keep my family's libraries separate on one computer. I have been checking and unchecking songs each time I sync one of my children's ipods. It is driving me nuts. There has got to be a better way. My husbands library alone so far is 1300 songs. HELP!

    When the iPods belong to different people, there are basically three ways of using multiple iPods on a computer and these involve:
    a) Sharing a single iTunes library
    b) Creating Multiple Libraries in a single user account
    c) Creating multiple user accounts.
    Note: When you are sharing an iTunes library, you don't have to set each iPod to update in the same manner, you can mix and match from the options below as each iPod has it's own update settings
    Sharing a Library and/or User Account
    If you want to share the one library, you can set either or all of the iPods so that they only get updated with only certain playlists (you can update from more than one if you wish): iPod - Syncing Music
    Choosing the update option "Sync Music - Selected playlists" allows you to create a playlist specifically for the iPod and drag the tracks you want into it. If you tire of the list and want to change it, you just add or remove the songs you don't want. The ones you take out out remain in the library to be used some other time if you choose. You can read more about playlists at these links:
    iTunes: Creating playlists of your favorite songs
    How to create a Smart Playlist with iTunes
    Or you can choose to update any or all of the iPods manually and just drag whatever content you want to them: Managing content manually on iPod and iPhone
    Loading the iPod shuffle differs slightly but it can still be used with the others, for details have a look at this page: Adding songs to iPod shuffle - Windows
    Multiple Libraries
    It's also possible to have multiple libraries in a single account. To create or access a second (or more) library, hold down the Shift key in Windows when launching iTunes 7. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to the other Library.
    Note: You can only have one Library open at a time and iTunes will default to the last library opened if you don't use the keyboard command to choose one. This can prove tricky when using multiple iPods, if you don't use the keyboard command you can risk syncing to the wrong library: Using multiple iTunes libraries -Windows
    Separate User Accounts
    Another option is to create a separate User account for each person on your PC or Mac. Different accounts by definition would give you completely separate libraries. Each account has it's own iTunes folder, Library and iTunes Music folder and you load it with CDs etc just as you did with your original one. The iPod can be set to update however the owner chooses, sync all, manual or sync specific playlists
    I don't use Windows so I can't give you a step by step on that one, however I can point you to another web page which should help you out. You can read about Windows user accounts here:

  • How do two  ipod's use one computer to download itunes?

    New to ipod's/itunes.  Family member already has an itune account set up on my computer to download music.  Can I set up my own account on the same computer to share the itunes program?

    Do you want to share all the same media and the same iTunes account/Apple ID with that other family member?
    Or do you want to keep your media separate, and/or use a different iTunes account/Apple ID?
    If you want to use all the same media and share the same account/ID, just connect your iPod to the computer using the USB cable and perform a sync.
    Otherwise, you might be best off setting up a new user account on your computer first, so that you will have two different iTunes libraries. This will allow you and your family member to both use the same computer but have completely different (and separate) data accessible via iTunes and on your iPods or other iOS devices.

  • Multiple iTunes Libraries on one computer?

    I'm a newbie and have what is probably a very simple question, but I'm confused. Both my boyfriend and I have iPods. What we're doing now is he's got his iTunes library on the laptop (syncing and charging on the laptop), and I have mine on the desktop (syncing and charging on the desktop).
    We're going on vacation and we would both like access to our libraries on the laptop while on vacation. Can you maintain two libraries on a single computer? How do I manage two different iPods on one computer?
    Thanks

  • Multiple iPad sync on one computer fail

    I am confused about how to maintain two iPads on one computer.  Try it and I get dialog boxes threatening to erase all the content on one iPad.  Do I creat multiple libraries? That seems risky in light of the "threat" message in the dialog boxes. Is there a simpler way. Why can't I just plug iPad #1 and iPad #2 into a computer and have iTunes recognize that each one should have a separate library? This seems really silly.
