Sync iMac and Macbook

[jeremiahhouse08]

I recently purchased a new 27" iMac. I want to be able to keep my photos and music in-sync with both my new iMac and my Macbook. For example, when I am on-the-go, I want to be able to open my Macbook and if I have downloaded a new song back home from my iMac; I want it to be available on my Macbook. I know I can enable Library Sharing via iPhoto or iTunes, but that only works with both computers on and running. I want something like MobileMe, where if one thing changes, it changes it on every device. However, I have gigabytes upon gigabytes of photos and music, therefore MobileMe or DropBox aren't useful to me. Please help me. I have read in some threads about using FireWire and such, but am illiterate when it comes to how to set this up.

Thanks,

Since itunes isn't cloud-based, that would require that you use a personal server, and is fairly complicated. iTunes won't download something to multiple locations (which I think is kinda dumb), so you have to move it around yourself with a usb drive
