Are different desktops available, similar to spaces?

Hi, I'd like to be able to save icons and files to a personalized desktop, then, allow others to use the same computer without viewing basically a cluttered messy desktop -- how can I give them their own desktop, or, switch between my own various desktops, easily like Spaces?
thanks

Setting up multiple user accounts should accomplish that. You can then enable Fast User Switching and toggle between them, without having to log out or quit any apps.

Different desktop for each space.

Does anyone know of an application which will display a different desktop picture on each space when using multiple spaces?

I looked into Desktop curtain last night, after searching for an answer to this question. It seems to ALMOST work. I have a secondary monitor 1920 x 1600 px for my 15" MacBook Pro. For a given Space, Desktop Curtain puts up the same picture on both monitors, but on the larger monitor it covers only the pixel dimensions of the primary monitor. The Leopard Aurora peeks out in a nice band around the edges of the picture I want to fill the screen.
Apart from that, what I want is to be able to have a different picture on each monitor for each Space, and Desktop curtain has only the options Primary Screen or All Screens. It isn't the answer in its present form.

Hi,

Did you try to set it up as new device, as explained in this article?

If this does not work, use iTunes to set it back to factory settings, which would also install the latest software:

How can I move an application window to a different desktop space?

Spaces is cool, very cool and useful. I'm glad they took the hint from KDE desktop in Linux and made it work unlike the clumsy goober that M'soft tried to do. But here's the thing- in Linux you can move an application to a different desktop space. I guess that's coming in a later update- nobody thought you'd wanna move something to another space!

Unfortunately, I've run into several non-Apple programs, including Adobe Photoshop CS3 that do not show up in the Spaces grid view. If you can't see the windows in the grid you can't move the application.

How can I open multiple instances of the same folder and web browser in different desktops in Lion?

I've selected "none" for association but it doesn't work. In other words, I have a Dropbox folder on my desktop. I'd like to be able to open that same folder using the same shortcut on different Lion desktops. However, whenever I try to use the same shortcut on a different desktop, it switches to the one where it's already open. Same problem with web browsers; if I try to just click on a web browser to create a new window, it will take me back to the other desktop.
I didn't have this problem before I had to replace my hard drive and update everything again. I am aware of the "restart Finder" option as well as associating programs with individual desktops. All of the things in question are currently selected as "none."
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I just set Safari's option to None. That is I right clicked on the dock, selected options, and chose none. Also, in Mission Control's tab of System Preferences I clicked Off When switching to an application, switch to a space with open windows for that application. That let me open a new Safari window no matter what desktop I was in. But I had to do both. Just setting the desktop option to none didn't seem to do it. Finder seems to work okay with just the none option set.

How to display the index of current desktop when enable multiple spaces

I was using 10.6 before and used to using Spaces and puts applications into different desktops.
Now I'm using 10.8 and I know that the Spaces has been integrated into Mission Control.
The problem is, I can see the current desktop on the top bar in 10.6, but in 10.8 I cannot see it so I usually forget where I am.
Does anyone know how to display the index of current desktop?

Brute force - - I have written the number of the Desktop directly onto the wallpaper picture I am using for each Desktop (easy to do with Preview).
All Desktops are using different wallpaper photos, so they are easily recognized by the color scheme, and in the upper left corner is the number.

What are the frameworks available out there

I just want to know what are the frameworks available out there for Desktop application ?

I want to create a standalone application in Java and I heard that I can make it easier if I follow a framework.
After having a look at frameworks for Java, it just completely confuse me, as it is very different from frameworks for Flash (which I do most).
The java framework covers much more stuff than what Flash framework covers (which mainly regulate the way how the SWF communicate with the server and the design of the classes )
I still wonder what is the definition of framework in Java ? Do I really need one for a standalone application, or I just need to follow the MVC design for my classes ?
I just need to get it right before I actually work on my program.
Thanks.

Why can't I assign applications to different desktops?

Why can't I swipe with three fingers to go from application to application which are assigned to different desktops since moving from Lion to Mountain Lion?

What I did: I used trackpad preferences and changed the settings to the following:
1) 3 finger swipe to go to previous and next page
2) 4 finger swipe to switch spaces.
Works like a charm now.

App mirroring on different desktops

Hi there,
I was just wondering if there is any way on a macbook air to prevent apps mirroring on different desktops?
thanks

that depends if by desktops you mean monitors, or the work spaces inside of Yosemite... if you are talking about monitors you should be able to go to settings displays and uncheck the box labeled displayed mirroring.. if this is not what you are referring to then i will need a little more information before i can adequately help you...

Vista Recovery crashed, Both the model is same, just OS are different.

Hi,
My model no is HP Pavilion Slimline s3760in Desktop PCs. My PC came with the pre-installed windows vista home premium 32-bit. i had problem with the dvd writer and it has been replaced recently and dvd is working fine.
When the writer was in defect at that time i have inserted the recovery disc into the dvd drive and wanted to recover my system to the factory settings. there was problem in writing/burning but atleast the dvd rom was able to read it therefore i thought the recover will work but unfortuantely it dint create any recovery to my system into factory settings and when i ejected the dvd i found that scatched has been created on it. the recovery set of dvd has gone and it is unable to use it at all.
It has formatted the partition and it was unable to progress further.
At present i am unable to recover my system from RECOVERY DVD neither from Hard disk. Unable to use F11 recovery. Both are corrupted.
My friend has purchased same desktop model i.e. s3760in , but he has received pre-installed windows 7.
Therefore i want to know that if i bring his recovery disc and install it from the dvd.
q1] then will i get windows 7 and recovery manager for windows 7 or not?
q2] will it will work or not ?
Both the model is same, only OS are different.
please reply asap, as i need to fix this problem.
thanks inadvance.
bye

Hello Varadar, As far as I know, there is no such thing as a HP Master disk for a HP Recovery Restore. If the customer creates a set of HP Recovery Restore Disk and they are faulty and the D: Recovery partition is corrupted as well, then the customer can order a set of HP Recovery Restore disk from HP if they are still available for his system.
HP makes these disk available for just a few years. If these are no longer available the customer would have to purchase a Retail version of the operating system and any other software they may want.
The HP Recovery Restore disk are made from the software that has been installed on the system when the system was built, so almost every system will have different software.
The data code the is copied to the HP Recovery Restore Disk set is located in the BIOS of each system and relates to the serial number of the system. That is the key, the serial number of the computer.
When the HP Recovery Restore disk are used to restore a system, the Recovery Restore disk will read the BIOS for the correct serial number, before it will continue.
If you were to order the HP Recovery Disk set for a particular system, you would be required to provide the exact Model and Serial number for the system, and then HP could look into their database and determine what software was installed on that machine and then create a set of HP Recovery Restore disk for that serial numbered machine.
If your hard drive were to become faulty and under warranty, HP would look up the serial number of your system and determine the software that was shipped with this system and then install the software on a hard drive, and if the customer had the capacity to replace the hard drive, HP would ship a new hard drive with the D: Recovery partition already created, and the customer would install the new hard drive.
If the customer did not have the ability or knowledge to change a hard drive, the system would have to be sent back to HP for the hard drive replacement.
This is done to prevent pirating of the software and certain legal obligations to the providers of the software, such as Microsoft.
There is simply no way around this. Many have tried and all have failed. This is by design.
Hope this clarifies the issue a little more.

The availability of color space in RAW, TIFF and JPEG files

This is useful if your new to DSLR photography.
This is Nikon response on my question in the discussion: View photo metadata
I'm assuming that you know that Adobe RGB shows about 50% and sRGB 35% of CIELAB color space.
In a DSLR camera like the Nikon D800 you can select a color space (Adobe RGB or sRGB) in the shooting menu.
In Adobe Lightroom 4.3 the RAW metadata shows no color space info. Therefore I asked why not?
In the (Dutch) Nikon D800 manual on page 84 (about RAW) and 274 (about color space) and Nikon FAQ website there is no descripton about the color space availability/behavior in RAW, JPEG and TIFF files.
In the book "Mastering the Nikon D800 by Darrel Young" on page 125 - 126 is written: "If you shoot in RAW format a lot, you may want to consider using Adobe RGB....."
All experts on this forum answered: color space does not apply/affect the RAW data file or RAW files have no color space.
The respone of Nikon Europe Support (Robert Vermeulen) was: In Nikon D800 NEF RAW files both color spaces (Adobe RGB and sRGB) are always physically available. In JPEG and TIFF files only the in the shooting menu selected color space is physically available. So the forum experts gave the correct answer!
Of course you can convert afterwards a JPEG or TIFF file with sRGB color space to Adobe RGB but you don't get more colors.
When you install the Microsoft Camera Codec Pack or FastPictureViewer Codec Pack they only show color space metadata for JPEG and TIFF files and nothing for RAW because color space "doesn't exist". I thought the codec packs removed the color space metadata for my RAW files.
Adobe Lightroom also can not show color space for RAW files because that "doesn't exist".

I still think this is an evasive answer that doesn't really pinpoint the exact chain of events that take place. They are:
1. The raw file contains the naked data captured by the sensor. This is just a very dark grayscale image.
2. In the raw converter it is encoded into a working color space to process the information. In Lightroom this is known as "Melissa RGB", or linear gamma Prophoto. It is also demosaiced to bring back the color information.
3. From Lightroom it can be exported to one of the familiar color spaces like sRGB or Adobe RGB. This is, in principle at least, a normal profile conversion.
These three steps are what the camera does to produce a jpeg. So the basic steps are the same, the camera is just doing it automatically (and usually butchering the image in the process...).
This Darrell Young is, I'm sure, an excellent photographer, but in this he is seriously confused and just propagating a common myth. Anyway, thanks for bringing up this discussion, hope you didn't object too much to the tone of the answers... Our only concern here was to get this right and with no room for misunderstanding.

Is there a way to set up multiple displays to show different DeskTops and/or multiple Full-Screen apps independently?

Hello Apple users/ develpers.....
I have been thinking about this long and hard and it seems like there should be some way to display separate Full-Screen Apps and/or mulitple Desktops.
This would be a key feature that would make Lion surprisingly more efficient than any of its predicessors. However, I have gone into System Preferences>Displays and could find no way to page through and get different desktops to display. I always could extend the desktop, but why do that when I can simply use multiple Desktops and assign them to specific displays.
(For example While on the MacBook Pro I could be doing a project in FinalCut while External Display 1 could be displaying iTunes and Display number 2 could be displaying MS Word. And between each I can switch between each app without changing the monitor display.)
I could also seeing this being extremely helpful in DJ and/or PowerPoint presentations. In a PowerPoint presentation I could use the projector/display to show the individual Slides, while on the computer/laptop I could control other materials.
Or in a DJ situation, I could be controlling iTunes from the computer, displaying a set of animations that I created in Flash/ToonBoom or another animation program, while still being able to work off of an independent display to do my homework or major project.
The whole purpose of multiple displays would be to have multiple access to each of those. And so if there's another APP I need to control them, or if there is a setup command I don't know about, I'd like to know right away.
Also, if Apple hasn't really implimented this (and their OS is designed to have these features) then I guess this'd be my first recomendation to them as something that they need to fix. This alone could be the key to crippling PC. Don't let Windows 8 have a back door!

Not available, why not suggest it here.

Why I cant view my picture on my iphoto and if I try to copy to any folder it Shows "The item on the clipboard cant be pasted to this location. (One or more of the item may have been deleted or are no longer available) "

Why I cant view my picture on my iphoto and if I try to copy to any folder it Shows "The item on the clipboard cant be pasted to this location. (One or more of the item may have been deleted or are no longer available) "

There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. Describe the problem as fully as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

My purchases from Apple TV are no longer available on the device.

I'm not sure what I've done but my purchases from Apple TV are no longer available on the device. They can only be found on Itunes under 'library/tv shows' and 'apple tv/tv shows'. How can I transfer the shows back onto my Apple TV and then erase the files from itunes? Once accomplished, how can I prevent my Apple TV purchses from syncing with my itunes (to save space on itunes, I prefer not to sync purchases from apple tv).
Thank you in advance for any advice!

Welcome to the Apple community.
You haven't done anything wrong, this is the way it is supposed to work. You cannot sync the content back to the Apple TV and then erase it from iTunes because the Apple TV mirrors iTunes, and if it is deleted from iTunes it will also then get deleted from the Apple TV.
You might also see this, however I strongly recommend against it.
