Back when I first tried this App SuperSync couldn't deal with Smart Playlists and therefore it was of no use to me. I have 3 favorite playlists that are "Smart Playlists". I tried it a while back but it was missing one important feature back then that stopped me in my tracks. This is actually is not my first time trying this applicaiton. At that point you can pick and choose which media to copy over or more importantly which ones/playlists to keep in sync. All of the media on one computer's iTunes library will be displayed on the other computer in SuperSync. You can set either one or both up as "servers". SuperSync is a separate application that you run on your two or more computers (you'll need a license for each computer). Let's say that you're willing to drag over your favorite songs and build the same playlists manually on your other computer, the minute you make a change on the 1st computer the 2nd computer is now out of date. It will let you drag the same song over 3 times in a row if you don't pay attention. Even if you drag stuff over manually via Home Sharing, there isn't even a warning of duplicates. Technically there is no reason why iTunes shouldn't be able to do this other than Apple hasn't built it in as a feature of iTunes.
I have the two computer authorized with the same iTunes account.
APPLETV APP FOR SUPERSYNC PRO
I would love to open up iTunes on my MacBook Pro and use Home Sharing to sync my 5 favorite playlists over to my laptop. What I simply want to be able to do is have the same level of syncing that iTunes provides from computer to iDevice, from computer to computer over the network. Sure Apple gave us " Home Sharing" in iTunes 9, but while Home Sharing lets us drag and drop media from one computer to another, it has no automatic syncing abilities. There is one glaring problem with this setup and that is there is no easy way to "Sync" this media to another Mac (or PC) for those few times when we want to take this content with us on a laptop. As long as we're in the house we can stream content from the iMac to just about anything. This setup works great and keeps us from having to store the same songs, movies, etc. This is also the iMac that feeds our Apple TVs. This is the computer that we sync all of our iOS devices to for music, and other media content in my home. in iTunes on a dedicated iMac in my home. I have all of music, movie, podcasts, TV shows, etc. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that the developers of SuperSync have a great product on the market and have filled the gap, but honestly there shouldn't be a need for this product in the first place.
APPLETV APP FOR SUPERSYNC SOFTWARE
This week I have the pleasure of reviewing a software solution that in my opinion does what iTunes should do natively. Last week I did a post where I asked Apple to Lose the Sync cable for syncing media to iOS devices.
