When I plus in my NS4G, iphoto opens up, but I do not see the phone in the sidebar ?
Can anyone offer any assistance ?

Huh? Is it possible to get android recognized on iTunes? If so, that's something I didn't know..

OK, sorry guys, I meant to say iPhoto, not iTunes.
When I plug the phone into my mac, iPhoto recognises the phone, but doesn't show up on the sidebar. I've had an incredible and a hero before, and they were both fine...
Sorry, should have clarified.

This has happened to me, end up manually uploading the photos

OS-X 10.7 Lion will now automatically load a picture import application whenever it detects a memory card or anything containing a DCIM pictures directory, including the Nexus S.
As for syncing your phone with iTunes, I highly recommend a program called iTuneMyWalkman. It's an iTunes plugin (for Mac) that you can use to upload your music and playlists to any device.

unless you're confident enough to ruin your device, no. things you need are:
-a BIOS
-a Tablet (not a galaxy phone)
-an ARM chipset
-a fat32/NTFS HDD Partition
-16 GB of HDD (average droid tablet only have 16gb. so why install?)
-and, the ability to choose boot location on booting up
androids do not have all of the above except the ARM thing. so no.
anyways it's still a dev preview not a fully-functional desktop/tablet OS. so don't treat it as such and thank me. even if it's not helping you (ungrateful bastard)

+thanks whore lol.

I realize you probably figured it out, but for anyone else that might be wondering if this works, it does. That's how I originally did it, but then I read you can download a program that uses your cd-rom as a USB drive of sorts for the ISO file and I did it that way for my old laptop. I forgot what it was called, but I found it by googling how to install the new developer's build.

[APP] SugarSync, the best Dropbox alternative. 5GB free storage

Hey guys, I recently just decided to join the Dropbox/ Cloud storage initiative. I found the best possible Cloud storage service called SugarSync.
The best thing about it, is that unlike Dropbox, You can sync any folder on your pc, as well as having a Universal folder that syncs with every device like Dropbox.
The second best thing is that you get 5GB of storage instead of 2GB, and upto 32GB through referrals, unlike 16GB in Dropbox.
The last thing I love is that with SugarSync you can Sync entire folders with your phone unlike Dropbox, where you can only sync a file at a time.
Anyway instead of me talking about it have a try for yourself. Just click on this link SugarSync, to get 5.5GB storage instead of the 5GB that comes with it, or click the link in my Signature.
Hope you like it as much as I do.

I still prefer box. It gives you 50 gb of storage if u use lg phones

Oh ok, well if that's true, that would be good, but besides that all the features SugarSync gives is pretty awesome =)

Problem with box.net is that it has no PC sync, some people like me really can't live without that... having the same music on a laptop, a PC and my phone, with no effort
Also my C++ projects are on it, so I can.work on them anytime, without a usb stick, and then download in class
So I use dropbox

Here:

And the 100mb upload limit is ridiculous. So far Sugarsync to me seems the best option, beter then dropbox definately. Try it for yourselves anyway...

i'll try this one out anyway.

Just a small update, although SugarSync doesnt have a native linux app, It does work fine on Wine, so worth trying out people who are on Linux distros

Yea, also dropbox linux version is actually a lot worse than using it on wine, it installs 3 different things to make it work with gnome or whatever, but normal wine version just works, although the icon in status bar up look lot worse

Good wifi file manager?

Does anyone know a good app that will sync a folder on your phone and computer over wifi? It would be nice if I made a change to the fold on the computer or on the phone if it would mimic that on the other.

Dropbox all the way

Sorry I should have gave more info, it's for music. Mostly flac files. I don't want to stream that much lol my data plan would be shot. Since I have a lot of music and download some straight from my phone and do a lot of work to rename folders and songs it would be nice to have it update on both but not were I have to stream them.

For anyone looking for this I found an awesome one. Cheetah sync is what I just started using. You can choose to sync from computer to phone, phone to computer or two way. It's free but it looks like you have to pay 2.99 after a trial period.

Titanium Backup (worth the money) has a media sync add-on that sounds like it would do what you want. I haven't tried it (don't need it).
It does require root, but that's already done

If you have a file server set up (or you have "shared folders" set up in Windows) AndSMB works really well.

What about titanium media sync?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda premium

I thought about trying titanium media sync but wasn't sure if it's what I was looking for. Haven't heard of andsmb. Cheetah sync seems to be working well. It is nice because I can choose to 2 way sync where if I have deleted a duplicate or added tags or changed a song title it will update on the computer as well

FolderSync

Airdroid
Personally I use AirDroid, and I love it for syncing music/movies and whatnot. You can change up files on there also.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5zYW5kLmFpcmRyb2lkIl0.

I'm using airdroid too, it's not a syncing service, but it gets the job done. As happy as I am switching back to an android device,I really miss iTunes sync, even the tethered sync beats anything I've found for android.

The App you are looking for is BtSync http://labs.bittorrent.com/experiments/sync.html
It can sync folder between multiple devices, it can sync files through wifi LAN or through internet, there is option to sync through wifi only.
BtSynce is available for Android, windows, linux, mac and even for NAS devices :good:
Its very efficient in syncing large multimedia files, also its free.

Google drive?

If you're using windows 8:

Microsoft just launched a inbuilt remote desktop app with windows8. Don't know if it's 8.1 exclusive as I haven't tried it yet.

It's not 8.1 exclusive but it is W8Pro version exclusive, and he said he has the regular version. It's a shame because I use it and it works flawlessly.

Ah. My bad. Posting stuff too hastily. To at least add some value to this post:
I'm using teamviewer as well. Works really really well, and it's perfect if you have many devices since you can log in to connect to other previously connected devices.

Otherwise "MirrorOp" would be a choice, however the free version is only limited to 5minutes.
I used it on one of my tutorials and you can click and write/write to your android device using the computers screen. I used it on one of my tutorials here:
