How do i share my pictures, music and videos from one user to another on the same computer?

lots of ways... you could use a thumb drive, you could drag files to the users public folder drop box, you could send it through email, you could use the internet servic called drop box (not to be confused with Apple's user public foldelr drop box).

How can I migrate from one user to another within the same computer?

My main user account in my desktop is becoming buggy after to many migrations from different computers and long time usage. I would like to migrate from one user to another user within the same computer to see if this improves my current problems.
How can I do it in a reasonably safe and quick way?
Thank you very much, cheers, Rui
iMAC, OS 10.6.8... and yes, I love Snow Leopard light and handy... and all my programs work on it...

Move small groups of files to the /Users/Shared/ folder or another location and see if the problems disappear. Moving everything to a new user account will in all probability transfer the problems.

How do I move imove content from one user to another on the same computer?

We bought our Macbook pro about six months ago. We made the mistake of creating two users for it (my husband and myslef) but bow we only log in under my user name. The problem is we originally imported all of our video camera content to his "log in" and now it is in his imovie folder, and not mine. I want to make a movie on my log in with the fottage that we imported to his. So, how do I get video content from one users login on the SAME computer to the other log in users? I cannot seem to move it for the life of me. I did not expect this to be so difficult.

Hi,
You need to log into his account and look, under the Movies folder, for iMovie Events. Inside, you'll find folders with the events names and still further will be the movie itself. Copy each to an external media or use the Shared folder so both accounts can reference them.
Another option would be to attach an external HD and via iMovie (Events Library pane) move them to the new disk. You would preserve the thumbnails and analysis already performed on the videos.
Good luck!

How to move iTunes from one user to another on the same Windows 7 computer

How to move iTunes from one user to another on the same Windows 7 computer? Thanks, Bob

Move the iTunes library to a shared area and then into the desired location. If this isn’t the default one, launch iTunes with the Shift key held down and choose that library.

How can I move my DRM-protected movies from one disk to another on the same computer without running afoul of the big movie houses?

I need to off-load my digital copies to another disk I just bought, located on the same computer, so I can have more room for other things; my collection is getting too big, I guess. I'm afraid if I just move them and re-integrate them back into the iTunes library, it will mess up the DRM status and lock me out entirely. I'm hoping it won't treat this exercise as one of my allocated copies and increment the counter counting device transfers. Any ideas as to how to safely do this (without hacking, etc.)?
Thanks.

How do I move a playlist from one library to another on the same computer?

I have two different libraries on the same computer (a Mac mini), one family library and my personal library. I want to move my music from the family library to my personal library, so I put it all in one playlist. I am trying to figure out how to move (or copy) this playlist with all my personal music into my personal library. I have tried copying all of the songs in that playlist and pasting in the new library but that didn't work, it just simply pasted nothing. Any ideas? The playlist is rather large (around 650 songs,) but it seems like apple could manage this without me having to make small playlists. Thanks for any help!

How to transfer files from one partition to another on the same computer

I had a crash could not boot back into my 8.1 upgrade. Went out bought standalone 8.1. I loaded it on HD free space now I want to transfer files from one partition to another.

hi
say there are two infoobjects X and Y.
X is existing infoobject and Y in new one.
go to infosurce-search for X-create export datasource - map the rules and load the data.
This is one way.
Other way is u can use X as a reference object of Y so that both of them have same structure and both objects will share common database tables in BW which are exsting for X.
Hope this helps.
Kindly assign the points if it helps.

Transferring music from one account to another on the same computer

Set up a second itunes account on a different computer user. How do I transfer the music from the original account to the second account?

All of the files should be stored on the hard drive and accessible from either account so long as you made the new account an administrator account. You would just need to navigate to wherever you have the music stored on your hard drive.
File > Add Folder to Library
Then select the folder, wherever it may be stored on your hard drive.

How do I transfer fonts on my notebook from one user to another on the same notebook (macbook air)?

Hi can someone please help me in simple terms...
Here is what I am trying to do.
I have 2 users on my notebook (macbook air) Tracey Brock (administrator) Little Munchkins (second user)
The templates that I have moved from my origingal user (Tracey Brock) to (Little Munchkins) all look different and has different font format. eg: I used Baby boston in original template on Tracey Brocks User and when I open it in Little Munchkins it has Arial as the font. I want it to be Baby Boston. I realised that this is because I have used fonts that were not originally in my fontbook on Tracey Brock and need to install these fonts in Little Munchkins but not sure how to do this.
I copies the fontbook from Tracey Brock user to Little Munchkins user and placed it on the desktop but not sure how to get these into my Little Munchkins fontbook in applications.
Can anyone help me with simple easy to follow instructions? No good with termonoligy.
Any help would be greaty appreciated.
P.S I am using OS X Mountain Lion if that helps.
Thakyou in advace
Tracey

Open two Finder windows. In the first, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and provide ~/Library/Fonts/ as the path. Repeat the process with the second, but delete the ~ in the path. Drag the fonts from the first window to the second.

I set up another user account to start over as my original account keeps crashing my machine. I want to export my Bookmarks form my original account but I can open the account.Is there a way to get to the bookmarks from the administrator account and export to another copy of Firefox?
Thanks

You can restore a JSON backup from the not working profile in the current Firefox profile.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
"Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders<br />

How can I move my iPad's iTunes backup from one user to another?

Is it possible to move my iPad's iTunes backup from one user to another, so as to change which user the iPad is syncing to without deleting any app data? Currently the iPad is synced to one user on my iMac, and I would like to transfer it so that it will sync with a different user on the same iMac (using iTunes, of course). I'd like to replace content from the old user's iTunes library with my user (eg. music, movies), but I don't want to loose app data in the process if I can avoid it.
I have tried to use the pathway /Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup but my iMac doesn't seem to have a MoblieSync folder. I wouldn't know what to do with the backup anyway though.
Can anyone help me or is this request too complicated, difficult, or impossible? Thanks for your help!

The Apple Document covers this. See the footnotes of my google docs
I've done this, it is easy, but takes time and patience.
On the existing mac with OSX and Configurator:
========================================
- run disk utility and verify your disks are ok, a must
- make note of the user logged in when using configurator such as "bob"
- connect a new or newly reformatted USB formatted for Apple
- run time machine and backup to the USB
- Take the mac off the network,
- Buy a new mac
- setup the mac with a new logon account like Paul or "bob2" do not use BOB !!
- finish the new purchase setup, get to your desktop
- now run the migraiton assistant moving bob from the USB to the new mac
- reboot, logon as bob, launch configurator and connect just one ipad. Test
