Macbook + Mac Studio combo question.

[thaisxs]

Hi guys

I'm trying to search if theres a way that I can continue my work on macbook straight on Mac Studio seamlessly without having to copy the file over to another device. For eg if I'm working on a premier project on macbook and wish to continue it on a more powerful machine

Short answer - no.

Medium answer - You can muck around with network logins, drives, etc but it will be a hassle and never be 100% seamless.


It's the reason I bought a soup'd up Macbook Pro M1 Max with extra storage, over a desktop + smaller laptop. Laptop goes everywhere with me and I plug it into screens when I need the screen real estate. The M1 Max crushes my old desktops in performance, and my old laptops in terms of battery power, anyway.

If cloud is an option, that might work too. I pause the sync (dropbox) when im making changes so it doesnt sync all the time until im done for the session. Dropbox is the only one that does proper delta sync so it's pretty fast (the others like icloud/onedrive kinda do it but it's temperamental and doesnt happen all the time)

Thanks for your replied. I thought i saw something about what apple advertise before like continuity that can work seamless across devices to pick up where you left on another device.

unfortunately continuity doesnt work with adobe so you're limited to just syncing the files over using a cloud service

You can use Apple Remote Desktop or VNC to remotely control one mac from any other of your machines.
But it is too slow for remote work in Photoshop for example.
