• I have different bookmarks I want to keep on each computer, synchronization will delete the bookmarks on a single computer and replace the bookmarks from another computer in their place

  I have not yet used sync, but I sense it's going to be a problem if I do. I have different bookmarks I want to keep it on each computer. Sync will delete the bookmarks on a single computer and replace the bookmarks from another computer in their place? So I think that will erase the bookmarks on the second computer you configured to synchronize. Is there a way to merge bookmarks on every computer in the library of a bookmark that contains all bookmarks on both computers, so I'm not all bookmarks in sync?

  Just to be clear, this is something that we have commented several times in the forum, Firefox Sync adds everything that is already in the device for the account and pushes this info for the rest of the devices.

  So if you have 2 computers with data X and the other with the data from there, once you set up synchronization in both computers you will have X + Y at the same time.

  I hope that clarifies the doubts...

• How can I synchronize my cc of photoshop with another computer?

  Hey guys! I just got another computer and wanted to use my cc photoshop and lightroom on the new computer as well. I loaded the CC on the new computer, but I notice that photoshop is different from the one I'm currently using on my old computer. It is also not download my presets that I saved. Am I missing a step? I need to sync somewhere along the lines so that the two photoshops are the same? Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you in advance.

  The synchronization feature has been removed in 2015.1.1 CC and synchronization of servers will be closed for earlier versions.

• synchronization Palm111xe on another computer

  I want to use another computer to synchronize my palm111xe. I couldn't find my old software so I downloaded 4.1.4 of the Palm. Computer running Windows XP. Course, I followed the instructions correctly, but it will recognize my Palm Pilot in the ready to sync cradle. I ran the software when I finally tried. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you. Tom has.

  What error do you get?

  When you installed palm desktop, did you create the same username you have on your handheld? To check, go to hotsync on your handheld and look in the upper right of this screen. Is this the same username name you're sync'ing to Palm desktop? If this isn't the case, create the user name and try to synchronize again.

• Is there a way to save all my tabs at once and transfer them to another computer?

  No, I'm not talking about having to first laboriously click each tab, bookmarking them, following the instructions to transfer your Favorites file and them by clicking on each bookmark to reopen your tabs. I wonder about a one click way to save all my tabs and the download on another computer, just like Firefox on opening/closing.
  Thank you

  This can be done through Sync.

• When I connect to another computer, office, I can't access my favorites. Only available bookmarks are the other owners of computers.

  If Mozilla is server-based, why are my bookmarks/favorites not available when I connect to my account? Thanks for any help!

  This must be provided. Firefox is not based on server it is installed on your device.

  It is possible to synchronize the devices using Firefox Sync, but it is not appropriate if you use someone elses computer.

  You might consider taking a copy of your bookmarks with you or placing them available somewhere on the web (or on a medium such as a memory stick).

  • Use bookmarks HTML
    • Export your bookmarks as HTML. Open this file with Firefox. Try it first on your local computer.
    • See Export Firefox bookmarks to an HTML file for backup or transfer bookmarks
    • Noticing no need to import the file it will be readable in Firefox. It is not not searchable from the address bar or bookmarks manager, but it should be a useful list of usable and searchable.
  • Use a Firefox profile on the other computer.
    If you have Firefox installed and the permission of the owner of the other computer (it can be your own additional machine), you will be able to synchronize or migrate the profile details, including bookmarks. Or just restore a set of bookmarks from the other machine.

• Connect another computer to Firefox Sync

  I have Firefox Sync on my laptop main (COMP1) and I added my iPhone (DEVICE1). This configuration works very well.

  Now, I have a new laptop (COMP2) and plan to retire COMP1.

  What is the best approach to recreate my connection to COMP2 and Device1?

  I tried to use this method, but do not think it will work once I have wipe ordi1:

  Steps followed:
  Connect another computer to Firefox Sync

  Follow these steps on the second computer you are trying to add to Firefox Sync.

     At the top of the Firefox window, click the Firefox button and select Set Up Sync. The Firefox Sync Setup window will open.
     Click I Have an Account.
     Since you're not near the device with Sync already set up, click the I don't have the device with me link.
     Sign in to your Sync account:
         Enter your account email address
         Enter your password
         Enter your Recovery Key
         Then click Next
     You will see a Setup Complete screen. Click Finish to complete adding this device to your Sync account.
  

  First of all, the various devices / computers don't connect to each other. It's a game Star connections; the synchronization server is the "hub" (lies in the middle) and each device / computer is a 'speak '.

  What you have described is the way to go, but you forgot a step - Unlink (prefs sync) Comp 1 before you wipe the data from it! Or disconnect your network connection prior to erasure. Either of those who will avoid the changes that you make to ordi1 to be sent to the server, so no deletion of your synchronization had given from the server or other device when they connect on the synchronization server.

• You can cancel the sync with another computer on a network?

  My desttop computer was set to automatically sync with a folder and its subfolders on another office in a network.  The purpose of the sync has been backup.  Today, the other computer had a malfunction serious and removed about 20 subfolders. The removal was detected immediately. I checked and found that missing subfolders were on my computer. BUT (I'M A FOOL!) I failed to realize that my computer was still periodically synchronize with the computer 'bad '. Suddenly, after about 10 minutes, subfolders missing from the 'bad' computer have now disappeared from mine as well! Immediately, I went to offline and off the synchronization mode once the horse was out of the barn.

  Is it possible to cancel fatal synchronization that deleted synched subfolders? -Can I somehow recover subfolders that had been so easily available on my computer?

  Yes, you can stop the clock, but no, you cannot cancel it (unless you have a backup of the files stored elsewhere).  You will need to retrieve the files and folders by using shadow copies (if you have one) or with the recovery software from 3rd party (see below for more details).

  If you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky.  They have so-called saves shadow copies, which are deleted or modified files that can be recovered in case changes/deletions made by mistake.  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx more information about how to use this feature to: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=145.

  If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, shadow copies is not available; However, there is an alternative that is free and the shadow copies feature called Shadow Explorer. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/recover-files-with-shadow-copies-on-any-version-of-windows-vista/.  Although it will not help you this time, it could very well save you in case this happens again.

  In case this does not work (not all files are available through shadow - it occurs periodically), here are some additional free recovery programs that might help:

  http://techpaul.WordPress.com/2008/06/23/how-to-recover-your-lost-files/

  The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace the data that you are trying to recover.  He slave on another PC and launch the recovery of this PC.  Even now you have definitely lost some of them if you use the same PC.  If you can not do this (slave on another PC), you run the risk of overwriting the data with every action you do on the PC (but you may still be able to recover some or most or even all files - it's a matter of luck).

  Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• How could export bookmarks without exporting all of them at once, just some select bookmarks in firefox for an another firefox on another computer?

  I don't want to export my favorites all at once and to completely overwrite those on the other computer. I want to just update the other computer with a few new brands of book from the old computer. If I choose the backup option using the json file it totally replaces everything when I load it on the new computer using the restore option. I want to be able to transfer bookmarks without overwriting everything. Just to add the new ones get in what is already there.

  You can consider using Sync to synchronize bookmarks to another computer.

• access to iTunes on another computer

  I have iTunes on my main desktop.   A lot of music, apps, books, etc.  Use it to syn my iPad, nano, iPhone, etc.   We're going to go to our summer cottage and have another office there.  How can I be fully functional it? I can assess my iTunes library to another office?  Can I synchronize my devices on this office also?  I have to do something to move my library to another computer?

  Thanks for your help.

  Copy the entire library on an external drive, move this library to the second computer, start iTunes with the SHIFT key, and then choose this library. Rented movies will not play on a different computer than the one that they have been initially downloaded if moved this way.
