Transferring back-and-forth from home and work

I need to transfer my Mail and Address book back-and-forth from home to work.
1. Which files do I export from home?
2. Where is it imported into work?
3. Are there any known issues with the database files becoming corrupt from going back-and-forth like this?
Thanks.

what os are both macs running on?
i would suggest you look at www.mac.com, the .mac service, if you want to sync various data between two macs - works with tiger and leopard os, but not panther.
manually moving folders may be cumbersome and end up with unintended consequences, as in human error or other glitches.
nonethless the folders that contain data for both mail and ab are respectively homefolder/library/mail and homefolder/library/mail downloads for mail and homefolder/library/application support/address book for ab.
you will also have to copy the com.apple.mail.plist and com.apple.mail.searchhistory.plist - for mail - and the com.apple.addressbook.abd.plist and the com.apple.addressbook.plist files - for ab - all four located in homefolder/library/preferences.
hope this helps

Switch back and forth from Chinese and English in Forms and Reports 6i

How do you switch back and forth from Chinese and english in forms and reports 6i? Tried changing regional settings in the control panel. Tried changing registry entry for nls_lang from american and chinese, none of them work! Can anyone help?
Chinese version of forms and reports 6i is installed. Only way I can change between english and chinese is to keep installing the version I want. Is there any other way?

I have an IPod 2nd generation I bought from a pawn shop. It worked for a day but now when I try to charge it, it keeps switching back and forth from the large full screen icon of a low battery and a lighting bolt below to the blue screen with the apple symbol in the middle. I had it on charge all night but still dead.

Can photos be transferred back and forth from/to iPhoto and an external drive? If so, how?

Can photos be transferred back and forth from/to iPhoto and an external drive? If so, how?

When in iPhoto for iOS you can share your photo to iTunes and then connect your iPad to your computer and use the file sharing window to move the photo to any connected hard disk. Sharing to iTunes is the only way to maintain original file size when sharing a photo in iPhoto for iOS.

My iphone 4s is rapidly switching back and forth from wifi to 4g

Hey! My iPhone 4S is rapidly switching back and forth from wifi to 4G. It will remain connected to wifi for about 10 seconds and switch to 4G for half a second. Then the cycle repeats. It's definitely been a drain on my battery. I've already switched wifi off and on, reset network connections on the phone, and rebooted my wifi and router. None of these have helped. When wifi is off, the 4G works fine. The wifi works in other locations, but my home network is not working. However, all other wireless devices in my home are working fine. Seems like a problem between my phone and the wifi.

Everything you've mentioned points to an issue with the home Wi-Fi.
Try forgetting the connection in Settings > Wi-Fi.
Restart the device and then connect to the Wi-Fi.

Hello , can you with a single account creative cloud , install on two computers ? (The one from home and one at work)

Hello , can you with a single account creative cloud , install on two computers ? (The one from home and one at work)
This will avoid me lugging around my mac, sorry for my english.

Yes, this has been allowed with Adobe applications going back many years. A program such as Photoshop can legally be installed and activated on two computers at a time for the use of the single licensed user. You can't install legally on your own and a friend's computer for use by the two different people. Prior to Creative Cloud, there was an unwritten limit on how many times a given application could be activated, but there is no longer such a limit under CC. That means you could theoretically install on three or four computers, activating only two at a time, and then deactivating one or both before activating on another computer.

HELP! How can I switch back and forth from LT to FCE to sync sound?

I'm using LT 1.2.1 and FCE 3.0. I haven't used it for 2 or 3 years, but people in this forum have been amazing at helping me get an old project working again.
Here's my latest question. I swore back then there was a way to move back and forth between LT and FCP so I wouldn't have to render my LT files each time I wanted to drop it into FCP.
Here's what I'm doing:
I've created an entire "movie" in LT that now needs to be fine-tuned to be sync'd up with a professional voiceover, which is why I'm using FCP. The only way I can figure out how to make sure the LT file is going to be sync'd with the audio is to render the movie in LT, import it into FCE, see if the audio works with it, if not, I go back to LT, move things around, then re-render, import into FCE, and hope it all sync's.
I think there was an easier way to go back and forth between the two.
Along the same lines, is there a way to get the audio from FCE (or some sort of a representation) into LT? The LT file must be adapted to the audio, and if I could "see" the audio in LT, it would be infinitely easier.
Thanks!
Bob

LiveType does not support any kind of audio, Bob.
Go through your movie in the FC Timeline and set markers at the relevant cue points by pressing M.
Pressing M a second time whilst sitting on the marker, will open a dialog where you can type a suitable description in the name field. Keep the description short -it might help to take notes too.
Export a copy of the movie (including markers) and bring it into LiveType with File > Place background Movie. The markers will show up at the top of the LT timeline, with their descriptions.
Delete the background from LiveType when you have everything lined up. Save your LT project file and import it into FCE. You can use the project file exactly like a video clip.
If you need to go back to LiveType for changes, right click the LT file in FCE's Timeline. Choose "Open in Editor". This will open the project in LT. Make changes, save the file and it will update in FCE.

How could it have been a brand new phone if there were already pictures on it?
I'd ask for your money back.

I was using my ipad it was under 10% but no under 4% it turned off then i pluged the charger in and flashed on then showed apple sign after i turned it on. now its going back and forth from the apple sign and battery symbol ive changed chargers its not on

hey please help!
i was using my ipad it was under 10% but no under 4% it turned off then i pluged the charger in and flashed on then showed apple sign after i turned it on. now its going back and forth from the apple sign and battery symbol ive changed chargers its made no differnce its been like 3 hours ive tried to do that reset thing holding lock button and home button for 10 seconds at the same time. WHAT DO I DO?

Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

I use my ipod for audible books downloads. In the past I have been able to move books back and forth from library to ipod according to what I was listening to. I can no longer retreive books in the library. Any suggestions?

I use my 6th generation Ipod strictly for Audible downloads. In the past, I have been able to move titles back and forth from the Ipod and my Itunes library, to control the amount books on the ipod. Recently, an exclamation mark has appeared next to the titles as I try to transfer to the ipod, and the book does not transfer. Any suggestions on how to regain access to my purchased library?

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

Once bootcamp is installed on my Mac, how easy is it to go back and forth from windows to Mac? Just a press of button or do I have to completely log off of one to go to the other?

Once bootcamp is installed on my Mac, how easy is it to go back and forth from windows to Mac? Just a press of button or do I have to completely log off of one to go to the other?

Using vitual machine programs (VirtualBox, Parallels, VMWare Fusion) you can run both at the same time.
Load Windows under BootCamp. Then load the VM software and select the existing BootCamp partition as the "virtualized space".
But ... BootCamp first, following Csound1's advice about backups. And you will wantto boost RAM most likely because you need to allocate certain amount of system RAM to each "virtual machine", as well as leaving some for OSX.

I work from home and they were checking my certificates and said that there is fiddleroot on my computer and I need it fixed. How do I do this?

I work from home and my headset is always cutting in and out and I am also being disconnected during work hours. This is a huge issue and talking to my tech support team they said that there is something called fiddleroot on my computer which makes certificates for every site I go to, which in turn makes my certificates I need for work not work. I need help removing this from my computer. Please help.

hello Tiffany2181982, unfortunately the fiddler2.com issuer in certificates might be a sign of unwanted software present on your pc that is intercepting secure network traffic. please go into the system control panel and uninstall programs like BrowserSafeguard, BrowserSafe, SafeGuard or other software that sounds suspicious and didn't get installed by you intentionally.
<br><sub>reference: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/982532#answer-520145</sub>
afterwards, run a full scan of your system with different security tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].
[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]

When I start it up it shows two two nested windows on the screen, has a Firefox yellow tab in the corner, does not display the toolbar bookmarks, the back and forth buttons do not work and there is no page refresh. No clue what is going on.

Every time I open up Firefox it appears to open two nested and linked windows, each with their own minimize, maximize and close buttons but the both work the same. The homepage does not come up, the back and forth buttons do not work. Both the refresh button and F5 do not work. The Bookmark Toolbar does not show up until I disable it in View and then re-enable it and this causes the outer nested window to disappear or close.

This issue can be caused by an extension or theme that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Administer from home and work?

I am the administer of CPS. I work from home and at the
office. My name appears twice as administrator. The drafts sent for
review show on one or the other draft consoles, but not both. Is it
possible to administer from multiple computers using just one
Administrator name? Thanks, Jean

That's a horrible work around and doesn't do what I'd like at all.
I have an iPhone, I have a home computer that I put stuff and sync it to.
I also have a job at a company that produces a TV show and commercials. I'd like to be able to drag and drop copies of those onto my iPhone so I can show people. It doesn't make any sense, nor is it any "fun" to have to drag those to a USB drive, take them home and THEN load them on the iPhone.
