Is there a way to sign in on your mac from another persons mac

I was just wondering if anyone new how you could sign into your mac from another persons mac. I seem to remember there being mention of that in the keynote for Lion or Mountain Lion. Do you have to set up a remote desktop thing or is there a basic way to do it? If so how do you do it?
Thanks,
Jon

Yes, but how you do it depends on what it is you wish to do. If you wish to control your Mac from another Mac, use Screen Sharing:

You can also set up file sharing so you can access the files of your Mac from another Mac:

HT5035 Can you share your itunes balance with another person?

Can You share your itunes balance with another person?

No. It can only be used in your own account, and cannot be used to buy gift cards.

How do I do this: "This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk?"

"This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk."

Stick the disk in, reboot holding c.
Disk Utility is a menu option about the 2 or 3rd screen in the installer. (don't install OS X!)
Because your booted form the installer disk, you can repair the disk.
Quit and exit the installer and reboot.
If your drive is not repaired, make a note of all what it says, for Apple to use.
Reboot and get your files off to a external drive,
Take the note and your comptuer to Apple for a warranty/Apple care call, they will replace the drive.

Thank you Allan Sampson, your answer to another person's query solved my dilemma :-)

Isight with another audio input?

I want to record a video with isight but with another audio input other than the built in microphone. I have tried changing the input in preferences - sound - input but that doesnt seem to apply with the audio in photo booth.

(1) Yes, for many common problems, location really does matter, although I think not for this one.
(2) Photo Booth is such a simple fun app that it offers few configuration options, although the latest version (Photo Booth 3.x) adds the ability to choose among connected cameras. However, there is still no menu choice that allows you to select among microphones. The only way I know to change mics is to change the system microphone in your Mac's System Preferences... > Sound > Input like you tried to do.
You do not say what sound input you want to use instead of your MacBook's internal microphone. I have tested my Photo Booth with my Apple LED Display, external iSight, and Logitech Desktop mics. All worked. Testing again after you shut down (not "Restart") your MacBook and then start it up again.
(3) If you still have trouble, test with QuickTime instead of Photo Booth. QT lets you change the microphone source by clicking QT's Preferences disclosure triangle as shown in this image:
You Mac's choices will be different than those shown in the image, but any sound input source that is recognized by your Mac will be there. Any mic that works in QT should also work for Photo Booth when selected in your Mac's System Preferences... > Sound > Input. After selecting the mic, say a few words and watch the "Input level:" meter to check whether the mic is working.
After selecting your other microphone, the blue indicator lights in the sound check "Input level:" meter in Preferences should flicker when you talk. If they do, the mic should also work with Photo Booth.
(4) If your alternate mic works with QT but still fails with Photo Booth, try resetting your Photo Booth preferences. If you have never done it, here is how:
• Restart Mac
• Navigate to the "com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist" file in your Home ( ) > Library > Preferences folder.
(Be sure you are in the Home Folder preferences folder, not your System's.)
• Throw the "com.apple.PhotoBooth.plist" file in the Trash
• Launch PB and test again.
(5) If the PB problem persists, apply the 10.6.6 Combo Update using the following process:
• Backup your Mac and turn off Time Machine
• Disconnect peripherals and restart Mac
• Use Disk Utility to repair permissions
• Download and install http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1349
• Repair permissions again immediately following the restart that finishes the update.
• Test PB again
(• Turn Time Machine on again when you are satisfied that the update worked.)

What software do you own? Give details, please.
Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
It's not something you can learn in a forum, question by question. Teaching someone Photoshop from scratch exceeds the scope of this or any other forum.
The process involves isolating your face, by selecting it and deleting the unwanted parts around your face or with layer masks, then placing it as a new layer on top of your target image, making sure it's the right size, color, lighting, etc. Google for tutorials on any of those elements you are unfamiliar with,

Want to change my phone with another one

I have an LG basic phone with slide out keyboard for texting (no data/web). It powers off and is getting annoying. my son has several old smart phones that work fine (just keeps upgrading).
Can I simply pull the chip/card from mine and put into one of his smart phones and use it? Will that work? I don't want data/web.
Thanks,
Regis

Verizon basic phones don't have SIM cards, just 4G LTE smartphones. If you were to activate one of your son's old smartphones, you'll have to also pay for a data plan since they are required to activate a smartphone. If you aren't eligible for an upgrade or don't see a basic phone you like on Verizon's web site, you could buy one from ebay or somewhere else. Just ensure that it's Verizon branded and has a clean ESN.

Want to share some music with another User on my Mac - how?

Hi everyone,
Here's what I want to do, and any help is appreciated.
My fiancee and I both users on my Mac laptop. Currently, we have our own iTunes library in our respective user folders. She wants some of my songs in her library, and I want a few of hers. I don't want to waste hard drive space, so I am trying to figure out how she can have some of my music in her library without creating duplicate copies on the hard drive. Then I want to be sure the shared songs she likes will upload to her iPod when she tries to sync.
From reading the various entries, I think the solution to this is to have a shared library in a public folder. However, I have a few questions about how this will work.
1. I don't want to see most of her music in my iTunes, and she doesn't want to see most of mine in hers. Can we control this with a shared library, or will each person see all of the available music?
2. What will happen when we try to sync our iPods? Will my iPod try to import all of her music that I don't want? Will hers get all of mine, or just the songs she wants?
Thanks in advance for your help...
PS - yes, I did read the article that covers most of this topic, but it didn't answer some of my questions.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93195

Just in case anyone is having the same issue - since there were no responses to this post, I bit the bullet and copied my iTunes library into our shared folder.
1. Our libraries stayed the same - nobody's music showed up in the other person's library. If she wants additional music from the shared library, she can just drag it into her iTunes from the shared folder on the finder level.
2. The iPods behaved exactly as expected - they would only sync to the user they were attached to.

How to share your itunes library with another person

how can two people have all the same stuff on their ipods/iphones? we have both bought different things but dont know how to share them

Hey jimyam,
Thanks for the question. If you wish to access your music library from multiple devices, anywhere, It sounds like iTunes Match may be the right service for you:
Apple - iTunes - Match
http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/
With iTunes Match, all your music can be stored in iCloud — even songs you’ve imported from CDs. You can access your music from all your devices and listen to your entire library wherever you are. And you'll also be able to listen to iTunes Radio without ads.

"Error: This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk."

I'm running Lion on a 15" 500gb Spring 2011 MBP. Ran Disk Utility and got this message. Since I don't have an install disk for Lion, what do I do? Thanks!
P.S. I searched the database and all questions with this were pre-Lion.

Restart your Mac and press command R.
This brings up the invisible Rescue/Install partition placed on your drive when Lion was installed.
Alternatively, you can hold down the Option Key at Startup and choose "Recovery HD".
In either case, proceed as if you had booted from a DVD, answer only the "What Language" question, but do NOT Install. Wait for the MenuBar to be drawn and choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.

How to Sync Your iPod With Another PC Without Losing Your Music?

So, my computer crashed and is completely unusable and now it is time to update my ipod touch and I would like to download new music but when I try to connect it with a new computer, it says my ipod is needing an update and to go to itunes.com to download the latest version. I click OK and go to itunes.com and it has me download itunes, not update my ipod. Any ideas on how to update my ipod???

Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer, to your new one.

I have tried to repair my disk and this is the message I get: "Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use disk Utility to repair" How do I correctly perform this action?

I have a boot disk that needs repair and I would like to know the correct way to repair this disk using another install disc. I guess there is an issue with the volume free block count.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Insert/connect that disk if needed, start up with the Option key held down, tab to it, and press Enter. If it's a Mac OS X install DVD, choose Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. If it's a different Mac OS X installation, open the Disk Utility in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder. Repair the drive.
