USB between 2 Mac

can I use a usb switch to go between my MBP and my MAC MINI?

I mean to use devices such as external hard drives on one or the other!

and if I can use a USB 3.0 powered HUB (where all my hard drives etc are connected)?

something like that would do that?

or do you have other suggestions?

If each computer can go on the Internet without rewiring, you are already connected you need and just enable file sharing in

System Preferences > sharing > file sharing.

USB is not a network support and Apple does no support USB sharing of any kind.

  • Why my notes sync between my Mac and iPhone?

    I have my MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks and my iPhone is running iOS 10.0.1 and used to synchronize my notes! Is it because of the huge gap in operating systems? I SHOULD update my Mac to Mac OS 10.10 + for this problem? Thank you!

    In order to synchronize Notes between your Mac and iPhone, you must configure iCloud > http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/

    But this requires macOS Sierra 10.12, the latest available version and the last iOS available for your iPhone.

  • I followed the instructions to set up the home between my Mac and iPhone sharing 6, but I don't understand all the music on my iPhone

    I followed the instructions to set up the home between my Mac and iPhone sharing 6, but I don't understand all the music on my iPhone

    I have confirmed:

    (1) devices are on the same network

    (2) I am connected to my AppleID with the same account

    3) are my OS up to date (Mac 10.11.2) (9.2 iPhone)
    (3) I closed iTunes and the App has reopened

    (4) I turned my iPhone off and rebooted (and confirms the foregoing)

    On my iPhone, I see in my music library, different ' kind' listed (e.g., classic, recently added, music of the 1990s, etc.) but they are all empty.

    Im hoping to see the music I have in iTunes on my Mac and play these songs on my iPhone.

    IM thinking, music that would be shared from my computer to my phone will be on the cloud?

    (I did not all default to add my music in the cloud at the moment).

  • Notes will not sync between my Mac and my iPad

    Hello. I noticed that my Notes are not sync between my iPad and my Mac.

    In my iPad I have iOS 9, in my Mac I have the Mavericks.

    I checked in iCloud dot com, and my notes of the iPad are here,

    but my notes from my Mac are not there.

    I'm not sure but I think that this started happening after I upgraded to iOS 9 on my iPad.

    Any ideas that I can synchronize Notes between my Mac and my iPad?

    Thank you.

    You must upgrade to a later version of Mac OS X, because these Notes are created in the new application 'Notes' that is only supported by iOS 9 and OS X El Capitan.

    I hope that answers your question.

  • 8.5.1 LabVIEW Student Edition - differences between the Mac and Windows versions?

    Hello

    I just bought the student of LabVIEW 8.5.1 version and I use Mac OS X 10.4.11. What are the biggest differences between the Mac and Windows versions, since the box came with a CD of installation of Mac and a Windows DVD Installer?

    See you soon

    Looks like you got the LabVIEW Student Edition Software Suite DVD.

    It comes with 6 boxes to tools, and the TME product, some (or all?) of those who are windows only (at least 8.5), for example:

    • Toolkit Digital Filter Design
    • Modulation Toolkit
    • SignalExpress
    • ...

    Since you have 8.5, you are missing also a few basic things that only recevied at the 8.6MAC support, like Mathscript, Control design and Simulation and native 3D graphics.

  • Access iMac HD USB from another Mac

    My support is a USB HD connected to my iMac. It is partitioned to the partition of time machine iMac and I've trained another partition to my Mac Book Air. I want to save the Mac Book Air over my home network to the HD even.

    File sharing, the disc is a shared disk, I can see it as a record of my Mac Book Air, but HD is not detectable as a HD device, so I can't put it as a disk time machine.

    On the iMac, the USB HD showed two devices, for the two partitions.

    Any ideas?

    TNX,

    Speedy

    Hello Speedy160,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see that you want to use Time Machine to back up your Mac Book Air, but the HD that you want to use is not seen. The following article explains the set up Time Machine to back up your computer: use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac

    It is particularly important to the section on storage required to back up:

    Time Machine is the built-in Mac OS x backup feature. To use it, you need one of these external storage solutions, sold separately:

    • External hard drive connected to a USB port, FireWire or love at first sight on your Mac.
    • Time Capsule or OS X Server on your network
    • External hard drive connected to the USB port of an AirPort Extreme base station on your network

    Connect the HD to another computer, unless it is implemented as a server, don't meet these requirements, but connecting the HD of a base station AirPort Extreme on the network will be.

    Best regards.

  • PCI 3.1 ASUS USB to the Mac Pro running El Capitan?

    Hello

    As the proud owner of a Mac ro 4.1 (updated to 5.1 and 2 X of Hexa-Core Xeon X 5670 CPU) I "suffer" a restriction.

    And it is now old and really slow USB 2.0.

    I would like to add a PCI USB 3.1 and I spotted the ASUS USB 3.1 PCI card.

    Of course, this card is given only as compatible with Windows...

    But I've seen a few reports of people claiming to have inserted this card in their Mac and have used successfully with several devices.

    It seems that these reports are under "Yosemite".

    I was wondering if they are always good with El Capitan...

    I put the card in the Mac.

    It seems to be recognized by the Mac Pro.

    In fact looking at the system information, under "PCI" give "Expansion USB card".

    BUT:

    -No USB key I have insert mounts;

    -No USB stick plug mounts;

    -my mouse lights

    -the keyboard does not work...

    So I'm wondering if:

    -El Capitan has got rid of the first USB support 3.1 to Yosemite?

    - Or if my card can be default somehow?

    -If this behavior can be caused by updates, I made (Mac 4.1-5.1 online) + 8-Core CPU-online 12 Core CPU?

    If anyone would be able to help me, I would be eternally grateful :-)

    If so, the card can be sent to the seller...

    Kind regards.

    FRED

    Hello

    Replying to myself: the card is functional.

    And the material is not at fault.

    How will I know?

    Simple: my Mac can dualboot on Mac or Linux Debian.

    So I just started in Debian on the same Mac Pro.

    Guess what? Without having to install any additional software, the card USB 3.1 is perfectly recognized under Linux.

    To remain decent, I will remain silent and will not say what I think Apple tries to limit the use of their devices without the need of technique to do so.

    I will now try to start to Yosemite to see if it allows me to use the card.

    Kind regards.

  • iMessage does not sync between iPhone, Mac Mini, MacBook Air

    My main computer is: Mac Mini (mid-2011), El Capitan 10.11.1 (B 15, 42)

    My secondary computer is: MacBook Air (13 inch, mid-2012), El Capitan 10.11.1 (B 15, 42)

    And my iPhone is: iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.1 (B 13, 143)

    iMessage used to sync between my iPhone and my computers very well. I was also able to answer incoming calls on my iPhone with computers. It seems that, just at the time I upgraded from Yosemite to El Capitan (or maybe iOS 9.1) synchronization no longer works. I tried pretty much everything I read on the forums, but nothing works. When I go into SETTINGS, MESSAGES and TRANSMISSION of MESSAGE TEXT on my iPhone and select the Mac Mini or MacBook Air, it will activate the program MESSAGES on the computer, but it won't send a code.

    Hello

    Have you tried with Messages on the relevant Mac already started?

    Have you tried signing of the Apple ID on the iPhone > settings > Messages > Send and Receive and effectively reset all?

  • NOR-USB 6008 Matlab Mac OSX

    Dear NOR-Experts,

    I wasn't sure which Board to post my question, so if this isn't the right place please accept my apologies. Be a too-unskilled computer user, I tried in vain to approach a converter A/D of NI USB-6008 of in MATLAB R2012b on a Mac OS 10.8.3 for quite a while.

    Searching through the internet (http://www.binghamsite.com/miscellaneous/matlab-mex-and-ni-usb), I learned that the General path to follow is to use the mex from MATLAB command to compile code written in C in the programs included by MATLAB. By following the instructions provided on this site, I ran mex - configure, edit the mexopts.sh file and was able to compile the file simple timestwo.c for test purposes.

    I then tried to do the same for the data acquisition example .c files provided with the package OR-DAQmx Base (3.6 v). I have been informed that mex objects require the inclusion of the header of NOR-DAQmx Base (NIDAQmxBase.h), so I tried to run

    MEX - I ' / Applications / National Instruments/NOR-DAQmx Base/includes ' acquire1scan.c

    Compilation fails producing a lot of information, I do not understand (see attached file). However, the error messages

    "Error: this platform is not supported, because long is not 4 bytes." or

    "Error: this platform is unsupported because int is not the same size as long."

    appear repeatedly. My Macbook uses an Intel Core i5 processor that is 64-bit, if this may have something to do with it.

    Any suggestions on how to get this race would be very appreciated.

    Thank you

    Robert

    Hey, Robert,.

    I think that MATLAB 2012 for OS X is a 64-bit only application, which will not work with 32-bit data acquisition Base driver.  There may be older versions of MATLAB who have a 32-bit version on Mac OS X, it would probably work with the method described in your link.

  • 6218 USB OR on Mac OS - read only 8 differential channels?

    agree General information, I am an architect of LabVIEW, been drawing code almost 16 years on the PC. A customer needs a MAC OS data acquisition system - I use a new MacBook Pro with a NI USB 6218 OR DAQmx Base 3.4 (btw this download of NI DAQmx Base came with C examples only and not LabVIEW, whats with that?) In any case, after a bit of a learning curve, I have the voltage reading material (Dev1 / ai0:7) (unfortunately) is not as robust as it is on a PC, but it works. The 6218 is 32 channels SE or 16 differential, but if I try to play 16 channels (Dev1 / ai0:15) I get the following error:

    Error 200077 specific configuration of terminal of input value is not valid for this channel

    I'm attaching a VI small I used to get the material upward and running.

    Any comments would be very welcome

    thanx

    lmd2

    This is not the appropriate channel list. When you select differential, ai0 is paired with ai8, ai1 is paired with ai9, etc.. You don't list the second string in the pair, so for 16 channels, you must specify Dev1 / ai0:ai7, Dev1 / ai16:ai23
