Best solution to work with a desktop and laptop

[Darwin]

Hi everyone,

 

I recently bought a MacBook Pro and I have shared Desktop & Documents folders on iCloud where I put the projects and so far seems to work discreetly.

Is there any contraindication?

 

I would also like to share the folders:

~ / Music / Audio Music Apps

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

Apple strongly recommends against using Logic projects that are in an iCloud-shared folder. I suppose you could move them to a shared folder when you're done working with them?

You should have a look at Splice (add .com for the website). Splice can be used to share your projects publicly or privately. You also are able to maintain different versions for your projects. It's a bit like GitHub what most programmers use.

 

David: Does Apple have a reason why not to put it at iCloud?

I imagine the streaming wouldn't work well for big projects. For storage and archiving I don't see why not, it is essentially a large document - so you could store them in the documents folder, and then copy them to the device when you want to work on them. The downside is having to keep updating them, but maybe you could set up something automatic, like carbon copy or one of the backup programs, which would update your cloud version automatically.

Yes! That's what I had in mind when I wrote "move them to the document folder when you're done working with them." But your description of the workflow is better. Basically using your Document folder like a Dropbox folder.
