seasurfer Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I have an MBP and an iMac, I want to synchronize my iTunes, what is the best way? Can I just copy the music folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sg Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 yes, you can just do that. there are also some sync utilities that you could use that save you time/effort, but you can also just turn on sharing in itunes and stream all your music between the 2 computers, you'll be able to browse libraries, play/pause etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

errandwolfe Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Well one thing I have found is as long as you use the same user name on both computers you can use Chronosync to keep your library in sync between two computers. Have heard there are better programs out there for it though. Something I have been meaning to research anyway. Will post any decent solutions I find.

JSn1™ Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Well, I copied the entire iTunes Library folder directly into the other Mac, and it worked fine, even I can sync the iPod and iPhone with both computer without troubles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaporATX Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I use Unison. Here's a real basic way to set it up: http://www.payne.org/index.php/Mac_OS_X_File_Sync It's a lot more powerful than is eluded to there. RTFM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ongeloof Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 You should be able to kick out and pick up most things, such as your iTunes library through Bonjour. Just look under preferences, i think.. i know it makes a wired printer wireless Think Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
