There was a fence put up long ago between the artists and the engineers. It seems that I'm still on the other side.<br /><br />Great post David, enjoyed as always!Coop a.k.a.

While we have an older iMac (...A great read David. While we have an older iMac (not even running Maverick and non-updateable) we also have an iPad II and a newer MacBook Air. And I guess an Apple TV as well, although we just disconnected it after a recent smart Tv purchase.<br /><br />I don't think we've ever had any of them try to talk to each other. I do back up the iPad on the iMac and transfer photos, but that is about as far as it goes. Hopefully you'll get things sorted.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-87268572733363342482015-12-20T03:04:25.940-05:002015-12-20T03:04:25.940-05:00Jules Verne, Douglas Adams, Gene Roddenberry and h...Jules Verne, Douglas Adams, Gene Roddenberry and his Star Trek universe... my childhood companions. They told us about things to come before they existed. I am sure that their stories have inspired people to invent what we use today, and I wonder what they would foresee, had they lived in these days... I certainly love my Apple products, but I sometimes damn them for the addiction they cause.SonjaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12389245948579828531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-56681746537661919512015-12-19T23:09:48.139-05:002015-12-19T23:09:48.139-05:00You don't need 10,000 hours to become proficie...You don't need 10,000 hours to become proficient at drawing. I've seen students in drawing classes get really good after three or four weeks. Malcolm Gladwell coined that idea of 10000 hours to mastery but he didn't define what mastery is. For most of us, we'll be happy far before we become masters. So don't dismiss drawing because of that arbitrary number. <br /><br />I have a lot of Apple products both at home and at work. I love them.

I'm planning to stick to honing writing skills and stealing art wherever I can find it.David Massehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09346419242154545286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7776318709416054670.post-53062087046513801202015-12-19T12:08:43.991-05:002015-12-19T12:08:43.991-05:00A true Apple addict...

I should probably look through my music sometime to see what's missing. So far, I haven't seen anything. I only saw duplication when I enabled iTunes Match on multiple Macs.<br /><br />There are some real tricks to getting Photos working between multiple Macs and iOS devices to avoid duplication. I would also consider turning on Google Photos on your desktop iMac (I assume that this is your "master" repository) just to have another copy somewhere else. The service is free and unlimited assuming you let Google limit picture resolution to 16 megapixels.<br /><br />So, have you picked up an iPad Pro and pencil so you can start drawing all of the art you can't photograph?RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.com
