  1. Syncing files over home network.


    Yesterday I added a second computer to my home network. The old computer is Windows 7, the new Windows 10. I've successfully copied My Documents to the new computer. Both have MS Office, 2007 on the old and 2019 on the new. What I'd like is for new saves with changes I make to word docs on one computer to occur simultaneously on the other. Is this possible? Eventually the old computer will go, but I hope to keep the old running until I'm sure I've grabbed very thing, maybe another year. For now they're in the same room, standup-desk and sit-down desk.


    By the same token, I'd like pictures I add or edit, to save simultaneously on both computers. Both computers have the latest editions of Photoshop and Bridge. Most of the time I'm online, but ideally I'd like saves to sync over the network even when I'm not offline, for instance if my internet connection went down but I continue to write.


    (Windows 10 refused to let me move My Documents and My Pictures over the network, declining my correct network password, so I had to do it manually with an external hard drive. )


    thanks

  2. Sync folder between Air and PC locally

    I'm looking for a software which will keep folders on my Mac Air and PC synced via the local wireless network.

    I usually take my Mac with me everywhere and as such have tons of large downloaded files that I have to manually copy over to the PC. I'm looking for something that'll transfer the files over the local wireless network in my home.

    Any suggestions?

    I'll be adding a small page on doing this in windows vista soon, since XP is the same with a step or two less, i assume people will figure it out.
