Can I edit photos on my iMac Photo Library from my MacAir?

Hi! I have an iMac and a MacAir. I have shared my library, but can not edit photos. I then shared the whole computer to the laptop and no good. It says it is locked, on a locked drive, or I don't have permission to edit it. I originally had two photo libraries, one on each, then I took the smaller library and uploaded it to the iMac. I have a Time Capsule, but use it only to back up the iMac (why? because I am not too skilled with this Mac stuff). In the end, I want to be able to sit on my sofa and edit photos at night from a laptop. Help Please!
More info - I have access to both computers, though I have the App Store hooked up to two different IDs (mine and my husbands), does that matter? If I buy Appeture I would need to buy it on both the iMac and the MacAir in this case? Any help is good!

If you use Screen Sharing you can run iPhoto on the iMac's library from your Mac Air just as if you were on the iMac itself. Even dropouts wouldn't hurt as they would only show up a momentary curser lapses because everything was being performed on the iMac.
However, I am able to do everything but edit photos even though I'm logged in as the admin user for the Mac. Give it a try and see if you can make it work. Here's what I have setup under sharing:

MacAir not detecting external monitor. 'check signal cable' error

Brand new MacAir OX 10.7.4 not detecting samsung external monitor. I keep getting 'check signal cable' error on a blank screen.

Hi Walter,
I'm not sure this'll fix your problem, & it's info from earlier OSX versions, but I'll toss it out...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions...
Trash these files...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost /com.apple.windowserver.<12digitHex#>.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/.GlobalPreferences.<12digitHex#>. plist
There may be more than one of each of the above, then trash...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
Reboot
You could test it by first, depending on OS version...
To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
Does it work in the new account?

Trouble downloading purchased music books on ipad2 it stops with a cocoa error message Yet the book downloads perfectly to my iphone5 and MacAir

I am trying to download a music bookI purchaed on my ipad2 It won't complete the download A message saying cocoa 503 (might have wrong numbers) would appear.Only about 2/3 of downo=load would work However, the book has downloaded perfectly to my iphone5 and MacAir. What can I do??Thanks

I am having an almost identical problem and hoped that iOS 6 and the new iTunes would fix it. Regrettably, I again got 3 movies synced last night before iTunes locked up and gave me the xxxx cannot be synced "because the file cannot be written" message. Same deal with iTunes hanging on "finishing sync" after that and me having to remove the iPad from the cable to get things to come back to life on the PC (Win 7 64 bit).
I've also done a factory restore followed by a restore from backup and have the same problem.

My new MacAir with Lion cannot read some accented letters in "Times".

My new MacAir with MacOSX 10.6.8 cannot read some accented letters in "Times".
No problem with "Times New Roman" and other fonts, but all my old files in Times are difficult to read. Also, many internet pages display texts in Times and I read them all with this trouble.
It happens above all with agrave à and acircumflex â. What happens? How can I read the letters correctly?

Most preferences automatically unlock for the admin user. Were you logged in on a standard or managed account with no rights to change preferences, then the panels would be locked for those users. Security and Accounts remain locked to prevent access when the admin user has left the computer unattended. This prevents any serious security breach.

My MacAir is great except for a problem i have. Keys F1, F2,F5,F6,F7,F8,F9,F10,F11,F12 and the power button are unresponsive. These are keys i frequently use and i have searched the whole apple help centre. Anyone got answers for me? Please helP!!!

Some keys don't work as expected
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
From the View menu, choose Speech.
Click the Text to Speech tab.
If "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" is enabled, the key or key combination set to speak text cannot be used for other purposes or used to type text--click Set Key and change it to a less-commonly used key combination (try to use modifier keys such as Shift, Command, Option, and Control). Or, disable the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option.
Click the Universal Access pane in System Preferences, click the Keyboard tab.
Make sure that Slow Keys is turned off. With Slow Keys on, you need to press a key for a longer period of time for it to be recognized.
In the Universal Access pane, click the Mouse tab, and make sure Mouse Keys is turned off. With Mouse Keys enabled, you cannot use the Numeric Keypad to enter numbers--instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to enable Mouse Keys with five presses of the Option key; you may want to turn that option off to avoid accidentally enabling it.) If Mouse Keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard with no numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Unable to type while Mouse Keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard are not working as expected, see Mac OS X: How to change the behavior of function keys.
If the issue persists, use Keyboard Viewer to help isolate the issue:
Click the Language & Text pane (Mac OS X v10.6) or International pane (Mac OS X v10.5.8 or earlier) in System Preferences.
Click the Input Sources tab (or Input Menu tab in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
Click the Keyboard & Character Viewer "On" checkbox to select it (click the Keyboard Viewer "On" checkbox in Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
From the Input (flag) menu, choose Show Keyboard Viewer.
If the keyboard is connected and detected by Mac OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the Keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application), and try to type something using the keys that were previously not responding to see if they highlight in Keyboard Viewer.
Start from the Mac OS X Install Disc, choose Terminal from the Utilities menu and test the keys which were previously not working. If the keys work while started from the Install disc, then the keyboard itself is working correctly. Use Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue to isolate the software issue that may be causing the keys to not respond.

MSI Forum Lock Ups

Hey guys wondering where i have been the last couple of days??...no, you guessed wrong i was not with my girlfriend (well at least no during daytime :D )
I was trying to LOGIN IN THE F*****G FORUM :O ?(
Markoul
p.s. At least it seems now we are going to have Avatars and also we have got the old forum back :P

Hi,
First of all thanks to all for the help, and CJLittle...LMAO ! My car is a Scooby and a nice blue paint job ! Believe it or not they assured me all this would work.. I bought it in one package and even questioned it. Also to be fair up until then they had always been very good... shows they have no zero about 3200XP 200 fsbetc... When I went back with the power supply and told them they changed it out and let me off on the extra money it should have been.
The crashes are as follows :-
[list=1]
Locks up after random amounts of time in games, sometimes dont even get to load it up at all, other times I can play 2 hours. When the games lock up usually there is a high pitch squeal and can only get out of it by reset or power off.
I cannot install Zone Alarm Pro or Agnitum Outpost are 2 anyway (there are others) these just come up with the installer screen and hangs there, I have to go to Task Manager to close them down, unlike the lock up in games.
The cooler is the Coolermaster Jet... and the temperature is more than acceptable (right now is 44 C) so I cannot see that at all being a factor.
leds are on on the d bracket when it locks, I did not know of this function and will check it out. Thanks for that tip.[/list=1]
Question from me: would the 2700 RAM cause these lockups ? I would have thought it would just not work at all ? If this is possible then I will go and change out the RAM as tuning it down to 166 (if it is possible) does not appeal to me ! But yes it may show what the problem is.
Thanks again, will see what happens...

Bit locker Mutliple Drives Mutliple OS's

I have a laptop with two hard drive in it. The primary has Windows 7 Enterprise and is a member of the corporate domain. The secondary has Server 2008 R2 and is a member of the lab domain. There is no trust or association between domain.
The laptop does the Windows multi-boot off the primary drive. I want to enable bit locker to secure the drives.
If the two windows environments were exclusively separate, setting up bit locker on each drive independently would be pretty straight forward, but when I'm in one OS, I will frequently need to get files and data from the other drive (and no, making each
drive big enough to hold all it's own data is not an option, plus the synchronization headache). Both drives will need to be bit locked to their respective OS, but the other drive will need to be accessible.
And not to make things too easy, the secondary drive, which i put in an optical drive bay carrier, routinely gets pulled (not while the system is running, of course) out and popped into a USB case to be used as a library transfer drive.
So....
the Windows 7 drive needs to be natively bit locked. and be accessible when running Windows 2008 from the second drive.
the Windows 2008 R2 drive needs to be natively bit locked, and be accessible when running Windows 7 from the first drive, and be accessible when run as a stand-alone USB drive on another system.
I would appreciate any wisdom you can share to make this all work. And please presume that i know next to nothing about installing and running bit locker, because that's pretty much true.
Let me know if you need more information about my configuration.
Thanks

Hi,
"and be accessible when run as a stand-alone USB drive on another system."
Firstly, if you enable bitlocker for one drive, it will be encrypted always until you decrypt it. Thus after you insert it to any system, it need to enter the credential to access it.
And then, if you want to access one drive in another computer, you need to get the shared permission. After you' re granted the sufficient permission, you could access it no matter if it's encrypted. Of course, another computer must be started.

USB 6009 lock-ups?

Hello,
I'm having a strange problem with my newly aquired USB 6009. I've written an app to read the temperature from a temperature controller using the 6009 and that all works fine. However, the problem comes when I port this code into another application. The code is intended to run in a parallel loop to the main execution loop, to continuously read the temperature whilst other data is captured and process (all done in the main loop). Both applications run quite happily when separate. When I bring them together the applications sometimes, but not all the time, refuse to quit and just lock up. I have no idea what is happening as it is not a case of one loop remaining running (I've tried separate stop buttons) and they will run together quite happily. The problem only comes when I hit the button that terminates the main loop (this also triggers the other loop to stop - I'm sure this bit works as I've used the same method in another vi).
The main loop should, in theory, just close. The loop with the USB reads (using DAQmx Base) will stop and then clear the task (DAQmx Base Clear I think). Sometimes the DAQmx Base Clear runs and the program stops fine, other times it runs and the program locks, other times it locks as soon as I hit the quit button.
Any thoughts as I'm completely stumped on this one? Like I say, apart from the one button triggering both loops to terminate there is no link between the two loops.
My only thought is it could be a USB issue as the PC also has a USB keyboard and mouse. I know from my home experience, when for instance plugging in my camera, it can cause the USB to lock if, say, my USB modem is running.

K9N Platinum lock ups

Hi Guys, I am building a new pc and I am having lots of problems. The main one being the pc will lock up after a few mins of being on. I have read it could be a memory problem, but I am not sure.
The System is....
CPU: AMD X2 Dual Core AM2 Athlon 64 3800
Ram: OCZ 1GB Kit (2x512MB) 240Pin PC2-6400 800MHz Dual Channel GX XTC Gold
Power supply: Enermax 535Watt Power Supply ATX12V & EPS12V for EEB, CEB
Video Card: XFX 7900GT PCI-E 256MB DDR3 DUAL DVI
and the K9N motherboard.
Is the Ram an issue? Would I be better off exchanging the ram for something else? Could anyone reccomend ram that will work with this board?
Thanks a lot for your help guys.

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately I have just tried that but its still locking up.
I have had a look in the bios to set all the memory settings manually, though I am not sure what I set to what. Apparently the corsair ram has 5-5-5-15 timings but I do not know what these relate to in the bios.
I guess the CAS#Latency(TCL) should be set to 5 then I'm not sure what to do. The options I have are
Min RAS# Active Time(TRAS) With the option of 5CLK to 18 CLK (This is set to 15 as mentioned above by Kakarocht)
RAS# Percharge Time(TRP) With the option of 3CLK to 6CLK (I guess this is one I should set to 5, currently at Auto)
RAS#to CAS#Delay(TRCD) With the option of 3CLK to 6CLK (I guess this is one I should set to 5, currently at Auto)
ROW to ROW Delay(TRRD) With the option of 2T to 5T (I guess this is one I should set to 5, currently at Auto)
ROW Cycle Time(TRC) With the option of 11T to 24T (Currently set at Auto)
There is also
Bank interleaving which is enabled
CMD-ADDR Timing Mode which is set to 2T
Software Memory Hole which is Enabled
Sorry to be a pain and keep asking all these questions, but this is really confusing me.
Thanks yet again

USB CAUSING LOCK-UPS

Hi,
30-40% of the time when I use my front usb it will cause Win XP to lock up and I have to hit the reset button. Has anyone else experienced this and also any remedies? It happens with my scanner, gamepad and ipaq. Setup=Win XP prof w/ service pack 1, KT3ultra2, AMD 1600xp, power supply is 400 watts.
Thanx

Hi Maesus,
I have AMI bios version 3.31a. I can't find the usb version on XP (I only know how to get to it on Win 98SE). It's the one that came with Win XP. If it matters, the VIA driver I'm using is v4.42. Lastly the USB connectors are the ones built into the front panel of my case. I wired it up according to the manual.
Again, the unusual thing is when it doesn't lock-up everything works fine.
Thanx again for your help
