You would need to set up the Dock exactly as you want it then migrate the file:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist

Can we creat an Apple ID for multiple users?

I work for a company where we are rolling out iPads in big amounts. The problem is that they all need an Apple ID in the training they get about the iPad they receive because they have to install MobiControl on it.
It's no problem to let them create an Apple ID at home, but they have to fill in credit card numbers once they connect at work when they try to install apps. That's the problem... Not everyone want's or has credit cards...
Maybe it's possible to create an Apple ID for multiple users???
Thanks!

You may find a better answer in this part of the forum, since it's meant for situations like you're in.
http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/
is also info about apple ID's.
You can make apple ID's without a credit card, you just have to jump through a couple of hoops to do it since the default is that people will always give a credit card. The key to making an ID without a credit card is that you try to download a free app first, then follow the 'make an ID' prompt. That will get you the 'none' option for payment.

Enabling right click for multiple user accounts via ARD

Is there a way to enable secondary click on multiple user accounts at the same time using ARD? Is it possible to do this using a UNIX code? If so could someone give me an example of the code?
Thanks in advance for any help.

It should be something like:
defaults write com.apple.driver.AppleHIDMouse Button2 2
You'll need to get the exact domain name for your systems' mice; use
defaults domains
and look for the mouse driver entry.
Regards.

Use 1 itunes library for multiple user accounts

Is there a way to use 1 library for multi-user accounts on mac osx? I have 4 iphones and was previously using the main account only. I'm getting tired of having everyones contact lists downloaded into my main phone. I can't seem to figure out how to sync the music to the same library.

Hi There,
I sync 2 iphones with the same library, and to stop the other iphones contacts adding to mine I have two groups in the address book, one has my contacts in and the other my friends. I then just sync the appropriate address book in the info pane when the iphone is plugged in.
Hope this helps.

How to create template for multiple users and proper variables for DesktopDNA

Here's the scenario:
25 WXPSP2 laptops with only ZENworks Desktop Management agent installed.
Laptops have at least 4 user profiles each. All laptops have same
configuration. I want to create just one image for all laptops and am
using personality migration to handle the different user profiles on each
laptop.
We are using ZENworks 7 on a NetWare server.
Using the DNA Template Editor, I create a template by selecting All local
user profiles on source machine, selecting User Accounts Settings under
System, and name the template DNAusers.dtf.
I then create an application object, CollectDNA, to collect the
personality following the instructions in guide. I associate CollectDNA
with a workstation and select Force Run and App Launcher. This is the
parameter setting: (There is no VOL1 on this server)
/D \\Server1\SYS\ddna\data\%CN%\X-REMOTE1 /T \\Server1
\SYS\ddna\templates\DNAusers.dtf /X
I go to X-REMOTE1 laptop and login as an administrator but nothing
happens. I then click on Application Explorer and double-click on
CollectDNA object and get: could not launch CollectDNA. The network
path was not found. Checking My Network Places, I see no NetWare
Services listed. And, although the ZENworks Desktop Management Agent
policy says to display the ZENworks authentication dialog, the login
screen never appears.
Any suggestions?

OK so I changed %CN% to "Admin" in the application object and restarted
laptop and logged in as Admin in the ZENworks Desktop Management
authentication screen. Nothing happened until I clicked on the
application windows and then it tried to launch CollectDNA but then I get
the Application Launcher status: the network path was not found.
I saw an earlier response you gave to someone else who had the same
message and did the same but still get this error message.
Do you see anything else that I'm doing incorrectly?

Ipad needs support for multiple user accounts!

There is a big difference between a smartphone and a tablet computer. Tablet is a device that may sit on a coffee or a kitchen table, with everyone in the family being able to check on their own email, browse internet, etc. and still have privacy for their own data. Very few of us can afford to buy an ipad for each family member.
I would say this should be number one priority for apple, more urgent than new screen, better camera, etc.
We need this feature, even if it comes with some restrictions compared to OSX – for example, if all applications of a logged out user should terminate. The trouble is how to do it so thousands of existing applications won’t be affected by it. The good news is that all apple devices run unix underneath, which may make it easier to implement this much needed functionality.
If you agree with me on this issue, let's make some noise on this thread and let apple know what we really need!

You have never heard of webmail?
Tell that to Apple if you have a MobileMe account! Anyway, it's not just mail, there is Facebook, Twitter, and all the other user accounts that have to be logged in and out of.
We do not need this feature, you might but I do not.
You may not, and I may not, but lots of people do, so please respect their needs.
It clearly is highly unlikely that iOS would ever get this feature, but there is no harm in sending feedback to Apple.

"Master" AddressBook for multiple user accounts?

I have three user accounts on my mac. Is it possible to set up the AddressBook so that all users have access to the same information?
In other words, I would like to have just one "master" address book, so to speak, which can be accessed (read and write) from all my accounts.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions
Mac mini (Intel) Mac OS X (10.4.7)

login with the admin account and uninstall
then login with your normal account and install the latest
flash player, it's the newest on the flash player 9 package.. Don't
forget to close all browser windows before installing.
To be on the safe side, uninstall the flash player using this
package
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe
Be aware of this:
Note: Internet Explorer users may have to reboot to clear all
uninstalled Flash Player ActiveX control files. If you're not
certain, select the "Show Details" button in the Flash Player
uninstaller. If there are any log lines that begin with "Delete on
Reboot..." then you'll need to reboot BEFORE running the Flash
Player installer again.

Creating a simple Template for multiple images

Hello,
I work for an online company, and we deal with displaying multiple images on our site. I've been just cropping sets and just droping them in a file and organizing them that way, but I was wondering if there is a faster way of doing this in Photoshop with Templates maybe? but it needs to be easier and faster than the process I'm using now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When I read what you have written "we deal with displaying multiple images on our site. I've been just cropping sets and just droping them in a file and organizing them that way, but I was wondering if there is a faster way of doing this in Photoshop with Templates maybe?" I don't comprehend what your doing now. Photoshop is not a file editor however it can create files that have more then one image. Perhaps you could describe what you want to do. What is a set, what is in the set, how many images in a set is that number always the same how do you want to crop do you have some layout in mind some size requirement?

Setting up accounts for multiple users

Suggestions for allowing multiple users to access one account to avoid having to reimburse folks for every download on their work iPads?

short answer, no. Mail.app does not have support within itself for multiple user accounts. It displays the messages from the mailboxes of the user that is currently logged in. so if you want multiple people to read their mail on the same mac without being able to read other users' mail, you will need to set up multiple user accounts. alternatively, use another client. i think thunderbird supports multiple mail accounts under the same user account. hope this helps.

I have an iMac with 2 internal drives and set-up with multiple user accounts. How do I create a path to store data files on my second drive within an application?

I have an iMac with 2 internal drives and a multiple user account set-up. Hw do I create a path to store data files on the second drive within an application?

This is the Mac mini forum not the iMac forum however...
Applications written for average users like Photoshop, Word, i.e. GUI based applications provide a 'Save' dialog box which while allow selecting second drives or any drive. The dialob box initially shown might be in the simple mode but you just need to click on the triangle to show the full set of options. You should then see the different drive names amongst other options.
If your referring to an application your writing yourself then you need to build a pathname. This can be in one of two styles depending on the programming system your using. This could be a POSIX style path or a Mac style path.
POSIX = /Volumes/volname/foldername
Mac style = Volname:foldername:

Create multiple user accounts

How could I create multiple user accounts?...
We have about 2000 students register every year and each of them will be given a user account

I managed to create many users using the command
imadmin -D serviceadmin n xxx.com -w password -i <inputfile>....
the content of the input file
l KA1000
F new
L user1
W secret
l KA1001
F new
L user2
W secret
so I have created 2 user accounts [email protected] and [email protected]....
I have one more question to ask..how can I create new accounts which have different login id and email address using the input file....for examples for login id KA1000 the email address would be [email protected].
I've tried this using ldapadd and it worked, so I would like to know wether imadmin command will work the same.....

Creating some sort of text template for multiple pictures

Hello, I'm new to the forums and new to photoshop elements. Let me lay out the situation so you have a better idea of what I'm trying to do and why. I work at a real estate office and we are going to hang a tv on the wall and display a slideshow of our homes for sale and ontop of the pictures I am going to add text to each photo with information about the home. I want to be able to add text in the same proportions in the same spot on each photograph. Is there some automatic way of doing this? I will have to hand type different info on each photo. The pictures come from different cameras (each agent takes their own photos) with different resolutions and doing it one by one (ive done just a few out of over a hundred so far) I'm finding out that one size text works on one but when I try to use the same size font on the next photo it's either too big or too small, I guess this is because of the different resolutions of each camera. I know I may have rambled a bit here but if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be thankful.
If I need to clear up anything I've said let me know.
Thanks

The font size is correlated with the resolution.
Have you investigated use of Powerpoint to construct a continuous-loop presentation?
"Self-running presentations are a great way to communicate information without having to have someone available to run a slide show. For example, you might want to set up a presentation to run unattended in a booth or kiosk at a trade show or convention. You can make most controls unavailable so that users can't make changes to the presentation. A self-running presentation restarts when it's finished and also when it's been idle on a manually advanced slide for longer than five minutes.
When designing a self-running presentation, you'll want to keep the setting in mind — for example, whether the booth or kiosk will be in an unmonitored public place or whether supervision will be available. The answer will help you determine what elements you add to your presentation, how much control you give users, and what steps you need to take to prevent misuse.
To set up a self-running show: open the presentation, click Set Up Show on the Slide Show menu, and then click Browsed at a kiosk (full screen). When you click this option, Loop continuously until "Esc" is automatically selected."

IMac with multiple user accounts "cannot associate apple id for ....."

I have an iMac with multiple user accounts each with an Apple ID and individual iTunes library and Itunes match linking to iPhones iPads etc.
I bought songs on my iPhone yesterday, on trying to listen to them on the iMac (my user account) this morning I get the "cannot associacte Apple ID for another 31 day" meassage.
Is there any way round this? or is the answer only purchase via iTunes on the iMac in the individual account. Why do Apple do this?
