10.3: Use the .mac iDisk to store common application data
Doesn't iDisk in Panther automatically keep in synch with a local version, and therefore remain always available?
Yes
I'm not sure if you're asking a question or responding to the first comment. But yes, iDisk on Panther offers the ability to keep a local copy of your iDisk and either automatically or manually sync the contents. That's option 2 in the "detailed instuctions" portion of the the hint.
Yes
On my iMac i can't manually sync the idisk. There is a symbol to sync it, but it is not activ.
Yes
Assuming you're using Panther, in your System Preferences there should be a panel for .Mac. In there, click on the iDisk tab and there is an option to "Create a local copy of your iDisk". Under that is the option to synchronize automatically or manually. If it's automatic, then it will sync whenever (or soon after) any files contained in your iDisk (either the local copy or the .Mac copy) are changed.
Manual sync with iDisk only after reboot
When i switch the modem on after the login, then i have not the correct icon to sync the idisk manually. There is no dot inside the sync-circle, and the icon is gray. The internet works, but the synchronization of the idisk works only after a reboot.
Manual sync with iDisk only after reboot
I'm sorry. I don't have an answer for you. If you have it configured to sync automatically, it should just work. I haven't played around with manual syncing, and I'm connected to the net via a DSL line, so there is no modem involved. What happens if you tell it to sync automatically instead of manually? |
