If you have a network (either wired or wireless) you can connect to another Mac using built-in file sharing. To do this, open the "System Preferences" on the computer you want to share files with and enable "File Sharing" in the "Sharing" preference pane (you only need to do this on ONE of your computers). Then, on the other computer, you can use Finder's "Network" browser to locate the shared computer. Double click it to login.

On your laptop start DP and pick Restore Backups from the Tools menu (or by right clicking and picking it on the popup menu).

It's really a matter of preference, although students in journalism and MBA are recommended to have laptops. Currently the split of student machines is approximately 70% laptop, 30% desktop. When deciding between a laptop and a desktop, there a number of key issues that must be addressed. The first is portability - if the student is on a sports team or will be traveling a lot, a laptop is a good idea. But, purchasing a laptop solely for classroom use is a matter of personal preference.

Link a folder in your work PC's local directory with a folder within the DocuSync™ server directory. To do this, you can create a folder called "My Sync folder", or any other preferred name.

Nothing else. FreeHand software can run on Windows 98, 2000, ME, XP. It does not support Windows 95 or NT4. It will run on Macintosh OS versions greater than 9.1 and OS X.

It really depends on what your needs are. And before you start attending Marlboro, it is hard to predict what your needs will be. Laptops are obviously smaller but they are typically more expensive, not as powerful, and more prone to breaking. However, if you want mobility, don't want a computer taking up space in your dorm room, and generally use your computer for email, web-browsing, and word processing, a laptop will be a good match.

MIT recommends a laptop as generally more useful for its students. It is mobile and allows you to use it in a variety of contexts, such as classrooms, labs, and study groups. However, depending on your needs or circumstances a desktop may also be a good choice. One thing to keep in mind regardless of your choice is that computers are theft targets. If you purchase a computer, you should invest in a cable or similar lock for it.

Beginning in Fall 2006, MMA requires freshmen to have a "notebook" computer (eg laptop). Go to Information Technology Services on the MMA site (under Administration) for information. No computers or phones are allowed during orientation. Through an agreement with Dell and Follett, the MMA Bookstore is pleased to offer notebook computers at discount pricing. Two models are offered, theLatitude 620 and the Latitude 820.

For the most part, this is a matter of personal preference. Some majors, such as computer science or nursing, might be best served with a laptop system, but it will depend on the student and the circumstances. Today, students seem to prefer laptops. Laptops take up less space, are mobile, and can use wireless if properly equipped with a wireless network card. Desktop systems generally cost less.

Laptops and wireless network access can expand your academic experience by offering the opportunity to work together in study groups, access the network from many locations on campus and beyond, take your computer on field trips, home on weekends or other travels, and use in compact living quarters. About 70% of UW-Madison students own laptops, and some colleges and schools (e.g., Business and Engineering) encourage their use.

Yes. Anyone with a laptop/PDA can connect to the Internet using the library's wireless connection if it is equipped with a wireless card. You can also connect to the Internet using a wired campus network port. There are about 10 wired ports throughout the library.<

A - There may be some temporary files present in your synchronized folders. Contact technology to delete these files. A - It is possible that the link is not complete or that the site is down.

You can choose to synchronize these applications with either Palm Desktop or Microsoft Outlook, but not both. If you want to synchronize with Microsoft Outlook, DO NOT install Palm Desktop from the Web.

You can do it using manual synchronization or the one integrated in ActiveSync. Select the "Synchronize" command from the toolbar or from the Tools submenu to start manual sync, or just enable Spb Wallet synchronization with ActiveSync in ActiveSync Tools/Options.

Only one synchronization application can be used on the PC. You must completely uninstall Intellisync before installing Qtopia Desktop. You can uninstall Qtopia desktop by using the Add/Remove software program that is built into the Windows operating system. First save the document.

See the Instructional, Communication & Information Technology Wireless information Web page. This page has a link to information about what you need to do to connect to wireless access, as well as links to other information about the campus wireless access project.

DTRs are somewhat larger versions of the typical laptop due to the incorporation of more powerful components. While the larger size means they can dissipate heat better than a standard laptop, DTRs still can not use the more high-end desktop components, so they are still not as powerful as a standard PC-style desktop. Both DTRs and laptops rarely incorporate PCI expansion cards, and they use many proprietary components, which severely limits expandability and upgradability.
