Turn off sync to iCloud drive to specific folders?

I have some files I've downloaded to iCloud Drive, which I rarely opened.

I know than iCloud Drive intelligently synchronizing files that I rarely opened, but is it possible for me to:

1. mark a specific folder in iCloud drive to not synchronize my devices? I think that this as a feature of "cold storage"?

2 interrupt synchronization to iCloud drive everything as I interrupt iCloud Photos on Mac?

Since I'm in an environment where the internet speed is very limited and I often uses mobile wifi (MiFi) whereby data is very expensive, so I need to manage the synchronization manually by myself. I also want to save precious space on my MacBook Pro SSD, this is why I need this feature of "cold storage" in the cloud.

Note: This tip below might work for the interruption of synchronization, but y at - it another way to interrupt synchronization?

How suspend you iCloud drive sync?  It is using all of my mobile data!

My environment: 13 "2015 retina MacBook Pro installed in El Capitan, iPhone running iOS 9.3.5 6.

Thank you.

Right now, iCloud drive will be synchronized snapshots of documents and data from your Mac.

macOS Sierra will bring changes to this.  See the preview.   Preview - Apple macOS

You will be able to use "Optimize storage" for iCloud Drive and include your desktop and Documents folder in iCloud drive.  Then you can choose to keep only the document new and used recently, all the old files and data locally in the cloud.

Get ready for the update on 20 September.

  • How to turn off sync library iCloud?

    So I have two libraries with family photos (the default library) and another filled library of art - as in the game video game screenshots etc.

    It seems that the Art Library downloads thousands of photos on the cloud and they reappear in my main library.  Is it possible to disable the feature to iCloud for Art Libarary?  Looking at preferences that you can set for the system library that is amibgious and I think settings iCloud's libraries.

    Thanks in advance.

    Single library at a time can synchronize with iCloud and use iCloud photo library, my photo stream, or photo sharing.

    And the library, which has been selected as your system library.

    Your screenshot shows, that your "photo library" is currently the photo library of the system. Only this library can download and download in iCloud.

    Have you ever used "Art Library" like iCloud photo library, so that the pictures are already in iCloud?

  • I can't find the settings I want to turn off sync contacts in iCloud

    MacBook OS X El Capitan Version 10.11.3 I looked for settings and can't find it. I tried the corrections suggested by the forums online and those who do not work. I'll put in place encryption firewall. I want to disable contact syncing in iCloud.

    To disable the synchronization of contacts in iCloud on your computer or on an iOS device? On the iOS device, which is managed in settings > Mail, Contacts, calendar, can find the switch for Contacts and turn it off.

    I'm not sure of the location on a Mac computer.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones how can I turn off sync wireless for spots on my BlackBerry Bold 9780?

    I turned off Wireless Sync for Contacts, calendar, and memos, but I can't find a place to disable the tasks. How can I do this so I can synchronize tasks as well when I connect my phone to my computer?

    Furthermore, I've never seen a list of tasks is displayed on my BB, even if I am able to create tasks. Should I see it on my screen with the list of the recent emails, upcoming appointments and missed calls?

    I finally got the answer from another forum.

    The task app is under Applications. Then press the BB button to open the menu and select Options. Wireless Setup is here.

  • TOSHIBA Power Saver software is turn off the optical disc drive, and I'm unable to re - turn on the power.

    Original title:

    Aloha!

    I have a Toshiba Qosmio x 775-3dv78 running Windows 7 Home Premium x 64.
    Similar to another old post here, I have an intermittent problem where the Toshiba Power Saver software is off the ODD (a Matshita UJ240EF - BD - RE) and I am unable to turn on the power.  To put the ODD back on, it's a matter of restarting (sometimes several times) until the STRANGE somehow turns on.
    Sometimes, when I do a hot or cold boot, a window opens asking me if I want Toshiba Power Saving technology to turn ON the ODD.
    I click 'Yes', but the drive remains switched off.
    I also try to use function - same key controls... The STRANGE remains turned off.
    Here are the "best":
    As described in the former post office, inside the Windows power settings, there is a slot layout titled "TOSHIBA Power Saver Settings v8.9.9.64".
    In this context, normally there is ONLY a framework for 'cooling method.  BUT only when the ODD is disabled, a second parameter appears to "Optical Drive Power".
    Change that on ONE for battery and plugged in fact NONE no difference... The STRANGE remains OFF!
    Toshiba support is of no help.  Their answer to this problem is to run a 'Mr Fixit' which I discovered just unrecognized devices and then removes the upper and lower filters for the reader.  This "difficulty" might work from time to time... when it does, the ODD is somehow transformed into a 'removable' instead of one device ATA device.
    But then in a few days, the STRANGE turns off again.
    Something different maybe notable, I found after that I continued services and the related process, programs is that the version number on the Toshiba modules show "8.9.6" - not the "8.9.9.64" in the window Power Options.
    And before you ask (LOL!) what's happening on a soft reinstallation of the operating system by the media of recovery Toshiba with all Windows 7 updates applied.
    While I'm waiting for a possible response, I'll do the following:
    Uninstall and reinstall all THE software Toshiba provided duty with the STRANGE (energy saving, combustion, players, etc.)
    I will also shoot material part and make sure that the STRANGE is well inserted in the connector (IDE?) and that the connector is firmly attached to the motherboard.
    IF who does things, I'll update this message and inform you all.
    Otherwise, any ideas would be GREATLY appreciated!
    Mahalo!

  • Is Windows 8 possible to turn off sync

    Hello

    I just upgraded one of my computers from Windows 7 to Windows 8. E-mail address after the upgrade of Windows 8, I logged in with my Hotmail. After doing that it seems that Windows sync my desktop theme, Favorites and search engine of my other laptop.

    I expected a clean install. I wanted to start from scratch with this computer.

    Y at - it anyway to disable the function of wells between computers.

    The other computer I have Windows 8 running is infected by malicious software and the browser is hijacked. It seems that the browser hijacking had been reduced to my new computer during synchronization. Both computers are now almost unusable.

    If I reinstall Windows 8 is possible to turn off synchronization so that it will not happen again.

    Do not connect to 8 Win newly installed with an e-mail address.  You can also use a different email address.

    There is an option on the initial logon screen do NOT use an email address.

  • Turn off sync in Adobe Premiere Clip on iOS

    I use the first Clip in iOS, it auto sync my project when I create the new project, I don't know how to disable it. I have a slow internet connection, I hate that...

    Hey, Tigon,.

    I have bad internet or No internet sometimes too.  As long as you are already logged in once and are PremiereClip, you don't need to keep your WiFi connection to continue working on your editing.

    Once your project is created,

    • Turn off your Wi - Fi in the settings of the device
    • Continue to change in PremiereClip
    • All your libraries pre-loaded AdobeHue are available
    • All music pre-loaded is available
    • You can continue to use the application (I have not found the options that do not work in offline mode again)

    When you are finished with your edit, move the application and turn on the WiFi.

    the problem is that if you switch to a different wifi zone, you can get eliminated from premiereclip (as some other Adobe mobile applications)

    If you exit, you cannot launch it again until you have wifi access

    When you are somewhere with WiFi (or better WiFi) access and you are ready to load your project on PremierePro, open PremiereClip and share the project (s).

    HTH

    (* caveat: at the time of this post, if you change the WiFi networks and WiFi, you will need to reconnect if you Quit/restart)

  • Vostro 5470 turns off (black screen, HARD drive turns off but other trips)

    Hello. Recently my Vostro 5470 (i5) will not stop or restart. This problem occurs after I replaced the battery and HARD drive (and for some unknown reason, the service in my city center to replace the HARD drive with Toshiba, 7200 RPM 500 GB SATA), only one week before my warranty expires.

    So whenever I used my laptop in about an hour or more, 100% it will not turn start/stop. If I chose to stop, after - + 10 seconds turns off HARD drive, but everything remains lit (power lamp, fan, etc.). I can do force closed, but this is not normal, right. And if I decide to reboot, my laptop stops himself, just want to make a stop of the force. This also happens when I choose sleep.

    But if I use it only in about 30 minutes, there is no problem. I've done many test on the HARD drive (defragmentation, Dell SupportAssist, BIOS test, comprehensive test of the BIOS) and the results was fine no problem at all.

    FYI, I have updated the BIOS it is A11 a few months back, BUT when I discovered, there is new BIOS update September 24 to 10 Windows, but with the same version (A11 too). It could be that my current BIOS is the problem? I don't have enough guts to update, because my warranty is already over. Help, please.

    Thank you.

  • Turn off the CSS tab in the specifications


    Hello

    We have not implemented module CSS, but we use the equivalent field in the summary page. Is there a setting that I can use to turn off the CSS tab in all modules GSM, without affecting or deactivation of the equivalent area or the data it contains.

    If so let me know, how to do it.

    Kind regards
    Kumar

    If he hides the tab for all types of spec except formulation so this looks like a bug, go ahead and submit an SR.  You should be able to use the extensibility of the user interface to work around the problem until it is fixed.

    Video stops a second time (1 minute to 2), audio custody. Tried to uninstall ff and adobe, by disabling the registry and reinstalling: does not work. Hardware acceleration disabled on adobe et seq. same thing. However, video on chrome and explore works very well. If it will give you more information I would say it started after the upgrade of windows 8 for windows 8.1

  • turn off Auto Orientation only in a specific framework.

    Hello!

    I appreciate if you please guide me with your experience in the design of Mobile application.

    My app contains 5 images data (clips), each image has 2 models:

    1 - design of stand (portrait) mode

    2 - design of wide (landscape) mode

    So far, it works very well and I published my App on Play from Google and Apple Store.

    Management structure is the following:

    image 1 external data load

    images 2-6 , each picture contains 1 designed MovieClip based mobile mode 'Stand '.

    22-26 that each frame contains 1 frameworks designed MovieClip based on mobile "wide mode".

    (Example: 2 and 22 frame content is the same, also 3 and 23... 6 and 26)
    (frame 2 is design STAND, 22 is a WIDE design, etc.)

    In "Air setting Dialoge, I chose to aspect ratio "Auto"and"auto orientation".

    And I have this code in frame 1 to make the tour of rotation:

    stage.addEventListener (Event.RESIZE, resizeLayout);

    function resizeLayout(e:Event):void

    {

    setPosition();

    }

    function setPosition (): void

    {

    Phone puts 'Wide' to 'Stand '.

    If (stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight)

    {

    The application is now in "Wide" mode - average between 22 to 26 weft

    If (currentFrame > 20)

    {

    go to the same position of the App, but in mode 'Stand '.

    Stop (currentFrame - 20);

    }

    }

    on the other

    {

    Phone from the "Stand" to the "Wide".

    If (currentFrame < 20)

    {

    Go to the same position of the App, but in "Wide" mode

    gotoAndStop (currentFrame + 20);

    }

    }

    }

    Well, and finally my question:

    1- is this way I programmed my app to turn, a good approach?

    (that way I can easily organize objects on the screen and position them also based on mathematical calculations)

    2- if I want to disable the automatic rotation only when app reaches specific images, what should I do?

    (for example, I want the app automatically orients itself in picture 6 and 26., but it runs in other settings)

    I hope that wasn't confusing and I look forward to checking your valuable advice!

    All the best and thank you very much for your time.

    Hi all here!

    I have no answer to my question No. 1, BUT I could find my answer to question 2 and here it is for your review:

    Thanks to Daniel Dura

    http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/screen_orientation_apis.html
