synchronization. Each drive has its own settings.

These are the folders that were automatically created when the user account was set up on
your Mac. (Click inside the box if you want to remove the folders from the list.)
3. To include other files and folders from your computer, click the + button and then navigate to
the source media folder(s). (Click the – button to remove an item from the list.) When the new
window appears, select the files and folders to sync and then click Add to Sync. Repeat for
all files and folders you wish to include.
4. To sync only the files that can be opened on specific iOS devices, click the menu next to
Sync files for on the bottom right section and then choose the device(s) from the list. Or,
keep the menu set to all digital devices to sync all files that are identified as movies, music
or images with any device.
5. Below Sync files for, select one or more of the boxes to filter what is synchronized. For
example, select Music and Movies and then leave Pictures and Documents unchecked if you
want to sync only your movies and music files. Rest your mouse on a box (Music, Movies,
Pictures, Documents) to see the included file types.
