Re: daisy-chaining back up drive?

2011-10-12 Thread Geke
All right, guys, interesting! I didn't know all that!

Still, for the original poster it's not relevant, and probably
confusing.
The bottom line for him doesn't change: he shouldn't be connecting two
computers to one HD, and the best solution to use the drive from two
computers is to connect it to the 10.4 one and share it, so the 9.2.2
one can mount it over the network.

it was interesting

I did get the point

I'm a she

I don't want to connect the drive to the 10.4 one - it does a fantastic
job on the 9.2.2 one, with auto backup of all that's changed at shut down
- with the software that came with the drive

and, the 9.2.2 one is where the serious work is done and all my emails
gets downloaded to

the 10.4/5 ones is just for webmailing, casual gaming, playing music,
banking and that sorts

going to buy another one for the 10.4/5 ones, whenever I can afford one,
and until then, try to be more efficient with the manual backups

but thanks anyway - to all of you :-)

Well, it's an external drive, so moving that for backing up the 10.4 Mac
shouldn't be a big deal.

Better yet, you could keep a Firewire cable connected to the 10.4 Mac (on
one end) and close (but not connected) to the external HD.
Then, when you need to backup the 10.4 system, you just switch off the OS9
Mac (or unmount+disconnect the HD), connect the cable coming from 10.4, and
there you are. :-)
It's a bit of juggling, bit it's almost like having it connected to both.

Very unlikely. The 4S will require the latest iTunes, which is not
available for 10.4, only 10.5 and up. Your only option's going to be
updating to 10.5, sorry.

Well, officially one no longer needs a Mac to synch an iPhone, since with the 
advent of IOS5 and iCloud, it all happens in the cloud.

Synching down to a Mac that old may not work, although I suspect a lot can be 
done through the iCloud web interface.
