Syncing Keychain with Mobileme on two different Macs

Hi,
I just bought 1password and plan to sync my keychain with my wife's. I am not sure what exactly is going to happen: will we merge all chains in a single big one or will there be two distinct keychains?
What will happen to the login process?
Thank you

Cannot sync Keychain with MobileMe - password not accepted

I have installed SL twice after talking with Apple Support. On my MacBook Pro, immediately after installing SL I received a message to input the master Keychain password for my MacBook Pro. I had never see this message before installing SL. I never had separate password for my keychain, so I input my master logon password. It was not accepted.
I posted this problem in a different thread under Apple Support and received advice to delete certain preference setting, use Keychain first aid, restore to default, etc. I did all that. No luck.
I called Apple Support and the representative walked me through similar steps before advising me to reinstalling SL.
I reinstalled, no fix. All that I have done is set my MobleMe preferences to NOT sync the Keychain so I won't get the message anymore.
I also have an iMac and have had NO problems with the SL installation.
Any advice or suggestions on a more permanent fix would be extremely appreciated! Thanks!

I'm having real issues as well with my keychains on one of my machines. Are you having similar problems to what I have listed in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2130442
Note that if your keychains are hosed, like mine appear to be, you will have trouble doing anything with MobileMe.

Syncing Keychains with Mobileme

I'm not sure if I have a unique situation or not. But, I have an iMac (10.6) at home and also a iMac (10.5) at work which I sync via MobileMe. I would like to start syncing my keychains also. Both machines have the same user accountname, but I require separate 'login' keychains for each mac. I don't want these to sync. I have created a new keychain ('sean') which is the keychain I would like to sync.
I don't seem to have a problem syncing the 'sean' keychain. The problem is that as default MobileMe seems to want to sync the 'login' keychain and I can't seem to find a way of opting out of the sync option. The result is that the user account passwords/login keychains get messed.
Is there a way to make this work? Any takers?

Could someone explain if the MobileMe pane on System Preferences is no longer needed for Calendar Sync...on older version of calendar I believe that was enough....This new mobileme calendar sync is very confusing and not well explained by Apple.

Syncing two iphoto libraries on two different macs

Hey
Can't seem to find an answer to this one so here goes. I am trying to sync my iphoto libraries that I have on two different macs of mine. One a mac pro and one a macbook. Both are running 10.5.7 and iphoto 8 with all the updates. I have sharing on enabled on both macs and in iphoto. I can do a manual drag and drop but I have 1000's of photos and that would take way to long to do. Any suggestions would be appreciated
Thanks

Use iPhoto Library Manager to move Events/Albums/Pics plus associated metadata between Libraries.

What happens when you try? Does the iPod even appear in iTunes? Have you tried a different cable or different USB ports on each PC?
Need a little more information.

Is it possible to edit my website with web '08 from two different Macs?

Is it possible to work on iWeb on two different MACS?
I've attempted to move my domain.Site folder from my laptop and place it on my Power PC in the iWeb folder, but I continue to receive a familiar error message can't read the Domain.Site.
Does anyone have any answers?
Both are running iweb 08'

You could make the file available for download via your public folder and when one user updates it they could change the title to include the date of editing and upload it back to the Public folder and delete the original file. . To do that you'd want to archive (zip) the file (control-click on the file and select "Make archive of file xxxx" so it would upload without problems. Not as convenient but doable. You would just have to make sure to identify the date of editing so there would be no problem.

How do I Sync my itunes music between two different computers

Can anyone tell me the step-by-step instructions for how to Sync my itunes music between two different computer.... one Mac at work and a second at home. I want to bring over all my work music onto my home Mac, some of which is the same but much of it is different.

Are you able to connect the two computers in any way? For instance is the work computer a laptop that you can bring home and network with your personal one? If the two devices are connected in some away there are a few utilities that can help you sync iTunes across different computers. You could begin your research by having a look at these for instance:

HT201250 Can I use Time Machine on two different Macs to back up to one external drive?

Can I use Time Machine on two different Macs to back up to one external drive?
I have one 1T Western Digital backup drive that works well with Time Machine and my MacBook Pro. I now want to back up my wife's MacBook Air using Time Machine on her Mac and want to know if I can use the same WD external drive or if I need to get a 2nd back up drive? If I can use one external drive for the two Macs do I need to do something special on the drive or will Time Machine do it automatically?

Yes. You will need to configure Time Machine preferences on each computer to backup to the same drive. Note that you cannot connect the backup drive to both machines at the same time.

FCE HD 3.5 Crashing at Startup on Two Different Macs

The software started crashing on my Power Mac a couple of days after install. I tried trashing the preferences--but It still crashes again every time I open the application.
Then on the advice from someone on this forum, I trashed everything associated with FCE, Soundtrack, and LIvetype.
Yet the problem persists.
Then we got a brand new iMac last week and installed FCE HD 3.5 (from a different disk) and I am having exactly the same problem.
I am trying not to pull my hair out.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Basically, whenever I click on the application to open it, it will start opening, and then will crash within 5 seconds.
The only way I have found to rid this problem is to trash the preferences folder. Then afterwards, the application will work fine for one editing session. But then the next time I try to launch the application, it starts to crash at start up again. And will crash continually at startup until I trash the preferences again.
This is occuring to me on two different Macs where I have installed FCE 3.5 HD separately using different disks.
Both Macs are purchased within the last year, have tons of RAM, Quicktime Pro, the latest OS etc. etc.
My intuition tells me that it is some kind of FCE software problem, since I am having the exact same problem on two different systems.

Time Machine to Backup two different mac computers on a single firewire 500

I have a new generation MacBook and iMacG5 and a single Maxtor 500 GB external hard drive which has two firewire inputs. I connexted both macs by firewire to this external hard drive. I used Time Machine on both computers which are on at the same time. However I can see Time Machine works well on one mac - where I can see each hourly backup but the other mac backups don't show up. I called Tech support and was told that I cannot have both macs on at the same time accessing the same external hard drive. I see two different files for each computer's backup so why can't both computers be running Time Machine at the same time?
So...I thought I should buy the new Time Capsule 1 TB BUT I worry the same access issues will occur. How does the Time Capsule drive wirelessly operate with two macs simultaneously when I was told that Time Machine would not operate via firewire with multiple computers on a single drive.
Any suggestions...are the Tech Support folks incorrect about using Time Machine with firewire access simultaneously with two different macs?

What you cannot do is connect two computers to a single FW drive enclosure at the same time. You can connect the drive to each computer separately. Time Capsule functions as a network drive thus any machine on the network can access the shared network drive. This is not the same as using an external FW drive.
If you want to use your single FW drive to backup two computers, I suggest you first partition the drive into two equal partitions. Use one partition for the TM backup of one computer, and the other partition as the TM backup for the second computer. However, you will need to physically move the drive from one computer to the other in order to perform backups.
Alternatively, if you have a local network set up you can physically connect the drive to one computer, then set up file sharing so that the other computer can mount the shared drive and use it for backup via the Ethernet network (or wireless if it's a wireless setup.) Unfortunately, I'm not positive this will work because TM is known to have some problems backing up to network devices although it is supposed to be able to backup to network drives.
Nevertheless, you should set up two partitions on the drive for each computer in order to keep the backups separate.

Sync itune between two different mac

I have been using a powerbook pro for the past 3 years and built up my own itune library during the time. Now that I have got the new imac, is there anyway that I can sync the songs between the two macs that I have?

I looked into using it, tried it and it didn't do anything but waste my time. I would NOT recommend this utility! After selecting and unselecting amongst the jumble of song, podcasts, movies, tv shows mixed up by title, author or other random titles, I told it to Copy and after a wait for the progress bar to complete it finished and I found the only thing it did was create a SynchoTunes folder inside my destination iTunes folder. Nothing was copied.
