Hey all. I'm hoping someone can provide a solution.

I have a late 2012 Mac mini (Yosemite) that I use for everyday stuff. I also have an early 2008 MacBook running Lion that I take with me when I go out of town or need a portable solution.

Is there a simple way to sync things like documents so that I have the same "stuff" with me regardless of which machine I'm using? I don't need to sync music and video as the notebook doesn't have the capacity.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Depending on how much data you want to synch, Dropbox could probably do that for you.

Download the app which syncs a section of your hard drive to Dropbox to both machines and it will keep them in synch as long as both machines are connected to the internet.
