Currently for the login and logout sync, I have nothing selected. For background sync (which I run manually), I have almost my entire home directory selected. There are a few things that are excluded based upon what was in the login/logout sync list.
I log into my laptop and I also log directly into the server. I try hard to not log into both at the same time. And I try to do a sync before switching from one to the other.
Things work mostly but some files still get sync conflicts. So far, I carefully pick the one I want to keep. One question I have is what does it mean to "keep both copies"? Does that tell sync to not synchronize that particular file? That sounds like it would be a good thing. The things that come up that have conflicts are things I know nothing about: db locks and those sorts of things.
My basic question is if there is a list of recommended things to put in the sync list or things to not put in the sync list.
Another problem has just popped up -- which I assume is connected.
I have my iTunes music actually outside of my home directory on my server. The volume is exported. The iTunes preferences points to my iTunes folder in the usual ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music. From the laptop, the setup works fine. But now, from the server, I get a complaint when I try to play a song. First it says: This file server is running on your machine. Please access the volumes andn files locally. I click ok and then it pops up that it can not find the song, would I like to locate it?
So far, I have just canceled out. I'm not sure how to set this up so I can do both.
Thank you for your help
