SYNCTUNES

Keep your libraries up to date − everywhere

Introducing SyncTunes for Mac
Do you listen to music and manage your media collection on multiple Macs?  If so, you’ve probably run into the problem of changes you make on one computer never making it over to another. You set your favorite song to 5 stars on your laptop but your playlist  on your desktop that plays all of your favorite songs never gets that message. Or perhaps you added the lyrics to a new song at home but when you want to see them on the road, they’re not there.

SyncTunes is the solution to these problems. It is a simple application that you can run on any Mac where you have an iTunes collection and see the combined collection between two machines. SyncTunes shows you the differences between your libraries for every song in your collection and lets you quickly and easily get them in sync. You can select a single song, all songs by an artist or all songs in your collection (or just about any combination in between) and with one click, the songs and all of the metadata about them will be synced over your network safely and securely.

Synchronizing your library with SyncTunes is simple.  Start SyncTunes on both machines (you can minimize the main window to a small status window or close it altogether).  Next, select the computer you want to sync with from the list of available remote libraries on the left side of the main window. The first time you connect, SyncTunes will request access from the remote machine to make sure that you have permission to access the library but after that you will see the combined list of tracks in the local and remote libraries with the current sync status of each song listed in the last column.  Sort, search and select any tracks that you want to sync and click the sync button and SyncTunes will so the rest.

Of course, there is more that you can do with SyncTunes &em; like finding duplicate files in either library &em; so to see the full details just download the SyncTunes documentation here.

We’re very excited about what SyncTunes can do to keep your iTunes libraries up to date but we know there is a lot more we can do.  If you have suggestions for how SyncTunes can be better, let us know
