• How photos store & sync with devices

  Hello community.

  I am an old user of mac and I must admit that I'm starting to be a little overwhelmed by new features in cloud computing.

  I need your help to configure my devices to work the way I want to.

  I have 2 macs (an iMac and a MBP), 2 iPhone and an iPad and a normal camera. I also pay for the 50 GB Apple cloud storage service. I have a time capsule.

  What I want to achieve is:

  1. all of the photos that I take (regardless of the unit i) should be visible in the camera on my primary iMac and synchronize automatically.

  2 when I import pictures from my regular camera to my primary IMac, these photos may not appear in other devices (unless someone tells me that to do this, non-local storage).

  3. when I delete a photo from any of my devices, the captain must auto delete main iMac.

  4. last question: the time capsule backup is reliable? for example can I assume that the main iMac backup will have all the pictures inside?

  5. If I do a backup usb and I copy on an external hard drive, the principal, is iMac iPhoto library - this enough?

  How should I configure my devices - account iCloud etc. to achieve?

  Thanks a lot for your help

  Have a great weekend all the

  1 - who is iCLoud - iCloud Photo library FAQ - Apple support - photo library all changes made on any device (additions, deletions, or modifications) are performed on all devices

  2. which is not possible - for devices with limited memory you use optimized photos on these devices

  3. again this is iCloud photo library as described in #1

  4 - Yes, it is - to have all the original photo included yu must have the Mac being backed up together to download original photos on the Mac

  5. I have that #4 was the last question - enough - not really - Time Machine for a TC is much better, since you hourly backups - do manual copies is very well, but you will not always the updated copy when you need it - and if you make manual backups, the drive must be in Mac OS extended (journaled) format

  6 - See the article referenced in #1

• BlackBerry Torch 9800 smartphones & not sync with Documents to Go

  Hi all:

  I just bought a Torch 9800 using the latest desktop and OS 6.  I have loaded on Documents to Go that works fine on the BB, but it won't let me sync the Office for BB.  It gives me this message:

  Your Blackberry device seems to be connected with Mass Storage Mode.  Documents to go Desktop don't pair or sync with devices connected in this way.  Please disconnect and reconnect your device with mass storage Mode disabled.

  Does anyone know how to do this with device software version 6.0.0.141?

  Actually, this can be done in two different ways.

  (1) connect your device to your PC and when the context menu is displayed, simply choose the option that says "Charge Only". This does not trigger on your torch mass storage mode, yet still allows access to your device.

  (2) the method of the other, more difficult is perhaps the total mass storage mode. Go to Options > device > storage. Once there, turn off mass storage mode.

• Office sync with two Macs leads to duplicate the files/folders

  Hi all

  I m using MacOS Sierra sync with desktop (and documents). Logged into my account, are two Macs (Air and a MB Pro). No I find in my iCloud drive a documents folder (it's good and the documents of the MB Air folder) and in this case a "Dokumente - MacBook Pro mg" folder which is the folder documents of my MB Pro (this is not so good). This isn't what I expected, I expected to have a documents folder which is identical on both machines. Does anyone know what I need to adjust to get things clear?

  Greetings from the Germany

  Mike

  I posted an article that explains all this to http://www.quecheesoftware.com/iCloud.html . This is a downloadable PDF file.

  Basically, you add to the folder Documents after activation of the synchronization of the files will be synchronized as you expect. But the files that were in your Documents on several Mac folders when you switch on for the first time on the synchronization will be placed in specific subfolders to your new folder of Documents iCloud Drive device. Apple apparently felt that he could not predict how each user would want their old files organized in the folder of Documents Drive iCloud, so Apple left to each user to reorganize the file later.

  I have now moved all my own files on the first level of my folder of Documents Drive iCloud and trashed the duplicate of the other device-specific folder. Now, everything syncs between computers, as expected. I left the two subfolders of specific to the device in place, either two empty for now, in case in the future that I might want to keep some files associated with one of the devices - for example, the alias files do not work on the other Mac. They will always sync in another subfolder, but at least I know to use it only on their own device.

  Apple certainly could have documented it better.

• iPhone not syncing with itunes

  Hello

  I have a problem with my iPhone 6 do not sync with iTunes. I tried many fixes nothing works.

  When connecting my iPhone to my laptop via the USB port, it will load. But iTunes won't recognize the device. I got around this before creating a separate playlist (access by holding SHIFT when opening iTunes), as my wife and I both use the same laptop computer for iTunes. But this no longer works and the laptop does not recognize the iPhone on any playlists. I tried the following:

  -Change the USB port

  -change the usb cable

  -reset the two devices (hard reset on iPhone)

  -allowing the radiation and authorizing on itunes

  -J' chose to allow the laptop to access the data and photos on the iPhone

  Someone at - it ideas? I am at a total loss after spending 45 minutes on this last night.

  Thanks in advance

  Tom

  Are you on Windows?  If so, try to uninstall and reinstall iTunes (later).

• What is the bookmarks on my phone, not syncing with my laptop?

  My Favorites from my laptop have synced with my phone, but my favorites on my phone does not match with my laptop. I have the latest version of Firebox on both devices, and since my favorite partially synchronized, I know that I have signed my account on both devices. I checked the setting on my phone and the laptop and both are configured to synchronize bookmarks.

  I finally thought to it. If you go to View Bookmarks Sidebar or display all bookmarks, you can see the bookmarks synchronized from your mobile device.

• The watch is not, nor can it sync with reminders.

  I bought at the Apple Watch last week.  I'm back this week.  Why?  The watch is not, nor can it sync with reminders.  For me, this is the reason more and more useful to have the watch.  Without the reminders and the ability to easily sync with other devices, it is not a value of the purchase.  I am disappointed by the lack of foresight of Apple and didn't want to patch the problem with a third-party application.  It will be difficult to come back to me.

  Hello

  Apple recently announced reminders will be added to Apple Watch as an application integrated in the software to come, watch OS update 3, which is scheduled for release this autumn / fall.
