[QUOTE="joe.morgan, post: 702921, member: 23213"] UPDATE: For anyone trying to do a similar task as me. This is my solution: Connected my mac pro and my macbook via firwire with the macbook as a target disk. Transfered my itunes, iphoto and dvdpedia library over to my macbook (took about an hour, over 200gb of stuff) I then transfered my documents to my iDisk Using chronosync, I setup a scheduled task for, whenever the macbook volume is mounted on my mac pro, chronosync will monitor both targets for changes. Any changes detected will be copied to the opposite target. This way... if on my mac pro I add some new albums to my itunes library, new photos to iphoto and new dvds to my dvdpedia list, chronosync will transfer the changed files over to the macbook when its connected. The same goes with any documents I also setup a schedule to run every 2 hours for my documents on the macpro and the documents on the idisk. Again, chronosync will monitor both targets for changes. Any changes detected will be copied to the opposite target. [/QUOTE]
