Use Finder Tags with multiple computers

How do we keep Finder Tag names in sync for files saved in Dropbox or iCloud?
After I can add tags to files in my rMBP and assign colours to them, these files are kept in sync with my iMac through Dropbox.
In my iMac, while the new colours are reflected in the same files, the Tag names are not.
Is this how its supposed to work?

To seems problem to be the effect of you rename the defult Finder tags (the ones replacing Finder labels) instead of making new ones.
So this made the trick for me:
1. Created completely new tags whith the names I wanted
2. Gave the new tags colors
3. In Finder settings, removed the default tags from the sidebar and the contextual menu, putting the new ones in their place.
Then at least tagnames - and colors and sidebar settings – was synced via iCloud and Dropbox. I think this will be the case for server volumes as well.

  • Using my ipod with multiple computers: not the usual problem I think

    I've searched the forum and various help documents but I couldn't find the answer to this.
    I have a laptop at the office (work-related, so I don't have any of my music on it, just itunes) and my computer at home. Ideally I'd like to:
    = keep my ipod automatically synced to my home computer
    = be able to connect my ipod to my work laptop and play the music stored on it through itunes there, and also keep it charged and ready for the trip home.
    It seems that the 'manually manage music and videos' setting travels with the ipod, rather than being stored on the computer's itunes installation. If I set it at work, so I can play music there, when I connect the ipod at home I have to reset it (and a few times when I did so the ipod started deleting everything because 'sync my music' was not checked, grrr).
    I just want to set things up in a way so that when I connect my ipod at work it will let me play whatever songs I have there (without wanting to sync anything), and when I connect it at home it will automatically update it. It's simple enough, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it.
    If I connect the ipod at work and press 'cancel' when the 'do you want to erase things' pops up, it doesn't try to change the settings, but at the same time it doesn't let me play music at all, everything is greyed out
    does anybody have any idea? I don't want to resort to have to buy a usb power adapter just so that I can play my ipod at work without draining the battery...

    i doubt it.
    actually, syncing an iPod Touch (or iPhone) with multiple computers is not recommended @ all. click here to find out what Apple has to say about it.
    all i can think of, i you really must do that, is this:
    to prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod - hold down the option and the command ( on a PC that would be the shift and ctrl ) keys when plugging in the ipod - keep pressing the keys until the iPod is listed under the devices list in iTunes. now you should be able to do what you want.
    however, you do so @ your own peril, as the article above outlined.
    alternatively, consider a setup such as this.
    good luck !

  • I want to use my ipod with multiple computers

    I use 3 computers for my music (office, home and laptop).  I want to put music on my ipod from all 3 computers.  I have an Ipod Classic - 160gb

    Hey 707dancinann,
    Thanks for the question. To achieve this, you’ll want to manually manage the content on your device:
    Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
    When manually managing content, you can add content from multiple libraries to your iPod or iPad. Even when manually managing music, some content may be available from only one library at time.

  • Can I sync my ipod with multiple computers using home share?

    Once I homeshare all my computers, can I sync my ipod with any of them?  Or do I always have to sync using the same computer.

    What kind of iPod do you have?
    For most iPods you can click Manually manage music on the summary page in iTunes. Check out Apple's document -> Using iPad or iPod with multiple computers.

  • How to sync with multiple computers?

    I have my iTunes library on my MacBook and all of my Apple devices synced accordingly. My family also has an iMac, and I would like other family members to be able to sync from the iMac. I know I can use Home Sharing to allow the iMac to view/play the music when my Macbook is active on the network. I also know I can purchase iTunes Match so I can access the music when my MacBook is offline and edit the playlists. Yet, I would love to be able to set up the iMac so the iDevices could actually by synced with that computer as opposed to mine. How can I go about this?

    Yes, you can sync your device with multiple computers.  Only that one is set to AUTO SYNC whilst the rest is set to "MANUALLY MANAGE MUSIC".
    Refer to this article:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202
    However, issues may occur leading to data corruption or data loss if you regularly sync Contacts, Calendars, Notes, or bookmarks between multiple computers using iTunes and your iOS device. Syncing once to move your data to a new computer should not cause these issues.

  • Can I share one iTunes Library with multiple computers on a network?

    Can I share one iTunes Library with multiple computers on a network?
    note: one library universally shared, not Home Sharing (one library each, shared to each.)
    I want to share one library stores on my server and access it through various local computers. When I buy a song from a computer (non-server), I want it to be added to the library (stored on server). I want it to auto copy to my server, for organization. I want to be able to sync my phone from any computer.
    Most of this I can do, if i figure out how to use one universal library for all my computers.
    Any ideas how I can do this?

    eyeinit,
    You can authorize your iTunes account on up to 5 computers at a time.
    However, purchased music is downloaded to the first machine to download it, but these articles have more information on moving your music between authorized computers:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93063
    This one is for moving all your music using an iPod as a storage drive

    Hope this helps,

  • Using an iPod with multiple Macs

    Hi all!
    I have a 30GB iPod with color display. I've been using it with my Power Mac G4. That's where I keep all of my music and photos.
    However, I just got a Pismo PowerBook, and I would like to use my iPod to play music through it while I'm at school, rather than copy my gigs of music onto the PowerBook.
    I used to have the iPod set to automatically update everything, but in order to listen to music on my PowerBook, I had to set it to manually manage.
    Does this mean that I have to manually sync everything, or manually copy music to the playlists on the iPod?
    Thanks,
    Alex

    Hi Alexander,
    Does this mean that I have to manually sync everything,...
    If the songs/photo differ on the two computers, the primary computer, where you have your songs stored in this case your G4, you can keep automatic. However, on your PowerBook, just keep it manual.

    my requirement i wnat to create multiple PDF and upload in to folder then zip folder so user can able to download ZIP file
    1) Create a folder named, say, docsDir, in the currect directory.
    2) Create the PDFs, using Eddie Lotter's suggestion, naming each file dynamically, and storing each in the folder docsDir.
    <cfloop query="myquery">
        <!--- Use row number to create filename dynamically --->
       <cfset filename='doc' & myquery.currentRow & '.pdf'>
       <cfdocument format="pdf" filename="#expandPath('docsDir\#filename#')#" overwrite="true">
            <html> Code to generate content of <cfoutput>#filename#</cfoutput> goes here. </html>
      </cfdocument>
    </cfloop>
    3) Zip the folder, docsDir, storing the resulting file, docsDir.zip, in the current directory.

  • I need help using my ipod on multiple computers!

    Okay so i got my Ipod on my iMac, and i usually download music from that computer to the ipod and it automatically syncs what i have on my itunes to the ipod, but i recently got a mac book pro, and i read on the apple support page that to transfer music from a secondary computer you have to connect the ipod to the secondary computer and set the ipod to "manually manage songs and videos" however when i select this option, and click apple, it still tells me i have to erase all the music on the ipod currently and replace it with whats on the secondary computer (macbook), all i want to do is be able to take one or two songs that i download from my macbook and put it on the ipod without having to erase everything.

  • How do I use your iPhone with multiple iTunes libraries

    Hi, I have my music spread out between 3 seperate Itunes libraries on 3 different profiles on my computer. I have the newest generation Ipod Nano, Ipod Shuffle, and Iphone 4s. My Ipod's are both full, so I've decided to start putting music onto my phone. With my Ipod's, I can plug them into one profile on the computer, download the music on the Itunes library that exists on that profile, then do the same with the other profiles with no issue. However when I try to do this with my phone, It asks me to erase the music I have gotten from one Itunes library and sync with the current library, as soon as I plug it in to a different Itunes on one of the other profiles. I have my Iphone configured with the Manually manage music option, and I still haven't found a way to use my Iphone with multiple music libraries. PLEASE HELP

    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12113 - If you use manual syncing, you can sync items from more than one iTunes library to your iPod. (You can sync iPod touch, iPhone, and iPad with only one iTunes library.)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202 - When manually managing content, you can add content from multiple libraries to your iPod or iPad. Even when manually managing music, some content may be available from only one library at time. This includes all content on iPhone and video content on iPod and iPad.
    They seem inconsistent as far as the iPad is concerned but in both articles the iPhone appears to only be able to sync to one library at a time.

  • Possible bug using go tag with redirection under SSL?

    I've been testing an application under SSL and have noticed that some links "pop-out of SSL". Upon further inspection I noticed the links were using <go> tags with redirect set to true.
    Does anyone know where <go> gets the URL it uses? I'm wondering if this might be a webcache configuration issue or appserver config issue.
    note: using AS 10g 9.0.4.1.1
    Thanks in advance!
    /SFL

    Hi all,
    Just thought I'd update on resolution. As suspected, an AS config issue was responsible for this glitch. Long story short WebCache can communicate in 2 ways w/ an origin server (HTTP or HTTPS). You can have WebCache use SSL w/ the client and still communicate with the origin server using HTTP (which was our case). PITFALL: the origin server is unaware of the use of SSL by the client (WebCache only "knows"). SINCE THE ORIGIN SERVER IS THE ONE EXECUTING THE <GO> TAG, when using redirect=true attribute with the tag, the URL generated by the rewrite routine is HTTP and not HTTPS as one might expect when accessing the app via SSL.
    Hope I can spare someone else the headache...
    Cheers!

  • How to use an Applet with multiple-jars

    Hi everybody,
    I would like to use an applet with multiple-jars.
