Can I give a group and a share the same name?
I have just create a few shares, one for each group I would like to set up. Now I am trying to set up corresponding groups, using for the group the same name I used for the shared folder. For example, I create a share named "Accounting", and now am trying to set up a group named "Accounting", but workgroup manager tells me:
The name you have chosen conflicts with a name assigned to another group.
You can't. However, it wouldn't really a good idea to do so anyways.
Wouldn't it be better to name the Share, "Accounting Share?"
That way, when you're talking to users that aren't that familiar with ...computers... your explanations will be much more logical to them. Not to mention to yourself.
Keep it simple! You'll have far fewer headaches in the future!

My wife and I share the same iTunes account. How do I setup a separate account for her? Can I do it using my iMac?
ThanksUsing More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library
Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data. Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted. Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.

HT201077 my daughter and I share the same apple id but can we have separate photo stream
My daughter and I share the same apple ID for music and apps. Is there any way for us to have separate photo streams. We do not want to share photos.
Hi
I also have 2 iphones (mine and my wifes), all on ONE iTunes ID and ONE iCloud ID.
I want to backup our photos only automatically to my Windowns 7 PC using Photostream & iCloud from both devices BUT I dont want her photos on my phone and vice versa.
I too would like to keep 1 iTunes account and because I dont want her photos streamed to my phone I will create separate iCloud IDs.
My question is.....
Can I set up my iClound control panel in Windows to backup photos from BOTH the iCloud IDs on the 2 phones?
I dont mind the backups going to the same folder on my PC, but I do want to keep the pics on the phones separate.
(also I am happy to use 3rd party software or manual options if not possibe with Apple products) -
Can Bootcamp and Parallels share the same Windows applications and data?
I'm looking at getting an Intel iMac which will let me throw away my old PC - Yeah!
I will have a couple of Win apps that I will need to hang on to (Quicken - Quicken for Mac is horrible, but that's another tghread). Anyway, can Bootcamp and Parallels share the same Windows applications and data?
My thought would be to allow my wife to access Quicken from Parallels and not have to reboot. She will only need lightweight access and the overhead of running virtualization wouldn't impact her. I, on the other hand, would want to occasionally boot natively into Windows and run the same application with the same datafile. Is this possible?
Thanks and looking forward to joining the MacIntel world!Thanks for all of the freplies. I suspected that BootCamp and Parallels could not shar ethe same partition, but wanted to verify. To address some of the other posts:
Re: Quicken vs MoneyDance - I looked at MoneyDance a while back and while it is comparable to Quicken for Mac, it isn't comparable to Quicken for Windows (ergo, Quicken for Mac isn't comparable to Quicken for Windows!). But, as I said, that is a topic for another thread!
Re: Using Bootcamp/Parallels for only one app: I actually have several apps that I still need access to on Windows. I work with many business applications than only run/are supported on Windows as well as receive some complex Office documents which Office for Mac cannot handle. Quicken (for Windows 2007) was just the best example of a consumer app where I could see wanting access from both OS X and Windows. -
my ipad imessages are coming up on my husband's iphone. Is that because we share an apple id account. How can we have separate apple id's and still share the same music library.
The biggest problem I have is with cross texting. My friends send my a imessage on ipad to ipad and it comes up as message on my husband's phone as well as my ipad?
My friends definitely do not want my husband seeing their texts. (and I dont really need him to see my responses either)
Also, apple id is based on my email account, how do I create a new apple id without setting up a new email account? -
My wife and i share the same itunes account but we have separate libaries , can i set her up her own itunes log in to free up my icloud memory.
Hi tomgoggs,
iTunes purchases do not count against your iCloud memory space. See this article for what iCloud is used to store -
iCloud: iCloud storage plan overview
If you are having an issue with iCloud memory being full, you may want to use the steps in this article to help -

My wife and I share the same email address but have different iphone numbers. Is there anyway we can both us "Find Friends" apps? When I try to enter her contact name it won't allow me to do this. Thanks.
make seperate appleID's if you wish to be frinds or if you wish to facetime video chat and if you wish to not recieve the samme imessage msg's unless you turn it off
you can still set both your iphones to use an email address even if both have different appleId's
the appleID is a handle not a link to an email address -
my family and I share the same account of apple. I'm getting phone calls and messages from my mothers and my number and vice versa. is there anything we can do
The short solution is to go to Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls OFF.
However, as Csound points out, you should not really be sharing an Apple ID with anyone. See: How to Stop Sharing an Apple ID.

Component and renderer can't share the same name in face-config.xml
Hi All,
I've noticed that a component and a renderer can't share the same name in <face-config.xml>.
For instance,
<component>
<component-type>tree</component-type>
<component-class>com.xxx.tree.component.Tree</component-class>
</component>
<render-kit>
<renderer>
<renderer-type>tree</renderer-type>
<renderer-class>com.xxx.tree.renderer.Tree</renderer-class>
</renderer>
</render-kit>
generates a cryptic error message.
It's not a big deal but would be nice to support it.
The workaround of course is to use a different name for the component and renderer (tree and treeRenderer for instance)
Stephanei dont know why it doesn't work for you. It works for me alright. Can u elaborate on what error messages you are getting? It maybe some other problem.

I have the IPhone, IPad and MacBook, IPad and IPhone share the same Apple ID and Icloud storage. Cannot make ID Change on MacBook as it says the ID is already taken. How can I make all three match?
The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
and the iTunes Match services.
(I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
and
iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.
(See also: Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895) -
So my sis and I share the same iTunes library on the comp, and when ever she wants to sync her music, she unchecks all my songs. But once she unchecked my songs and syncs hers onto her iPod, my songs are there still. We've unchecked all my songs manually but my songs still sync onto her iPod. I want to know what to do because she ends up deleting my songs and when ever I wanna sync my songs, it takes me forever. PLEASE HELP ME GUYS!!
How to use multiple iPods, iPads, or iPhones with one computer
Simplest way is to create a New User Account for each of you...
Each user will then have their own iTunes library. -
How do i make icloud work if my husband and I share the same itunes account but we dont want to get each others contacts, messages, apps etc?
Each of you should set up your separate iCloud account on your own computer using your Apple ID. This gives you two independent iCloud accounts.
Note that an iPad is not a multi-user device. It can only be synced with one account. -
Me and my daughter are using the same Apple id and we share the same iCloud account. I want to change her Apple id so that she will have her own icloud account and I will have mine.
1. how do I do it?
2. how do I transfer her stuff which is in my icloud storage to her new icloud account once this one is created?
thanks,
AriTo migrate her device to a new account, start by saving any photo stream photos she wants to keep to her amera roll (unless already there) by opening your my photo stream album, tapping Select, tapping the photos, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow, then tapping Save to Camera Roll. If she is syncing notes with iCloud, you'll need to open each of the notes and email them to her so she can later copy and paste the text into new notes created in her new account. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account (which only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud), choose Keep on My iDevice and provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone. Then sign back in with a different Apple ID to create her new account and choose Merge to upload the data.
Once you are on separate accounts you can each go to icloud.com from a computer and delete the other person's data from your account. -
