Can I have only one library for me & my wife?

I created it originally and have tried dragging my iphoto library into the shared folder, but while I can then access the photos fine from there, my wife sees it as a locked folder (and even more odd, only half of the folders of photos (years) are locked). I can't unlock them for her to access no matter what I try. Any advice?
I should clarify that, of course, we are two separate user accounts.

Hi tom,
here is all the info and links I have on the library sharing. the newest info is the one on using ACL's (the last link)
SHARING IPHOTO LIBRARIES
Sharing libraries between users on the same local network
You can also share a library on the same machine between users the same way.
Sharing libraries between users on the same machine...
-both users must have sharing enabled in their iPhoto Preferences
-both users must be logged in and have iPhoto running
-Remember that you can only view the other library. You can't edit the photos or play the saved slideshows or view the made books or burn them to CD or DVD. The books and slideshows will show up as an album. You can play that album as an "on the fly" slideshow. You can drag images from the sharing library to your library in the source column to import them to your library. You can then edit, add to albums, books, slideshow, etc.

SHARING ONE IPHOTO LIBRARY BETWEEN USERS ON SAME MACHINE
You can try one of these three methods:
1- Use iPhoto Library Manager-the paid version
The documentation page will give instructions on how it is done.
2- Sharing one iPhoto library between several users on one machine
3- Share an iPhoto Library in tiger Using ACL's

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

  • Can I use only one computer for driver development?

    Hi! I'm newbie in driver development and now is first day when I make the acquaintance of driver development. There is the next phrase in MSDN in
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh706187(v=vs.85).aspx
    : "For developing, debugging, and installing a kernel-mode driver, you need two computers". But I unfortunately have only one computer and I have to develop the USB Kernel Mode driver as technical assignment for admission to the job.
    My computer is under Windows 7 OS and already has standard USB driver. I have Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate and WDK 8.1 Update on my computer. Can I use only one computer for driver development and debugging or not?

    no, not really, you need two. you can use a VM as the machine under test though.

  • Why can we have only one public class in our program

    Once i'd put one inner class as public ...which means now i have 2 public classes ..............out of which one is the inner class...what is the use of such public class which can be accessed by only its outer class.........
    plz. help

    plz. helpWrong.
    Public inner class can certainly be accessed outside.
    You just have to preface it with the name of the outer class.

  • Can Linda have only one Apple ID for 2 devices?

    Linda has an iPod that she says she has an ID for. When she gets home today she will be setting up her new iPhone 4s.  Should she make an entirely different ID for the iPhone?

    Would you need help to learn how to have the apps on Linda's first device on her second one? The apps will not be there when you log in on the second device.

  • (2) Vehicles - But want to have only ONE FOB for keyless entry and remote start

    I have the following 2 vehicles:
    2003 Dodge Durango RT with automatic transmission
    2006 Volvo V70R with 6-Speed manual transmission
    I am looking to purchase a keyless entry / remote start on BOTH vehicles but use only (1) FOB to control both as I will only be using either vehicle at a time. If I need to use both, I will use 2 FOBs. Is there any current breand or system that can do this, like have switch and can be programmed for more than one vehicles ??? Thank you for any info and God Bless !!!
    Solved!

    VBVAGUY,
    Best Buy has 2 brands that can control 2 cars. Viper and Compustar. You said you would like keyless and remotes start. Are these the only features you are looking for? Security? The system below is a Viper 1-way with around 2000 foot range that offers 2 car mode. They also have a 1 mile range and also a 2-way system. This is a nice feature if you don't have visibility to the vehicle, the remote will tell you if the car started.
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/viper-1-way-remote-sta​rt-system/6891137.p?id=1218810613502&skuId=6891137
    With any of these system you are also going to need some additional parts and labor. Also because the Volvo has a manual transmission there is a certain sequence you must do every time you park the vehicle. If this is not done the remote start will not work. Doesn't effect the keyless entry.
    Stop in a local Best Buy and speak to the AutoTech. They can educate you on the different model, feature and the manual transmission sequence.

  • One Library for multiple users?

    I did not realize that the library would be tied to a specific user on a computer. Is it possible for 2 users to share the same library? I created a library under my log in, but my wife can not see it when she logs in. If we can't have just one library for the whole computer how can I transfer all the cd's i imported to iTunes to my wife's log in?

  • How do I use one library for multiple iPods

    I have three girls that recently got iPod nano's. I would like to use only one library for their music etc. How do I do this. when I installed the first one it worked great. Then when I installed the second one it won't recognize the first one. Then when I went back to factory settings on the first and synched her music the second one is not recognized. Help......

    Sorry, guess I am not using the "technical lingo". I already had itunes on my computer for a medical review course that I purchased to study for a certification exam. When nano #1 was purchased I hooked it up, registered it, and synched music to it. When my daughter tried to play songs, the songs titles and songs were mixed (song didn't match title). I hooked it up to the computer. It said it needed to be formatted. So I did and reregistered and synced the songs back on. Everything ok. Second nano hooked up, registered, named different name than #1, synched with the music she wanted. Tried to hook up #1 and it didn't recognize the nano. I went to the website and found out how to "find" it on the computer, followed the instructions to find it, and again it had to be "formatted" to have it recognized. I was again able to sync her music. Will I have to do this everytime I try to sync more music? that could be a real pain!
    thanks for any help for this sometimes electronically challenged mom.

    It seems that you have used the AppleIDs to "Purchase" your devices, which marries the two for all time and eternity.

    -The specific point:
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

  • Why we can have only one public class in one source file

    why we can have only one public class in one source file

    When the java compiler is run it looks for classes referenced by the classes you are directly compiling. When looking for these referenced classes it looks for source as well as class files and compiles them automatically if the coresponding class files are missing, or older than the source.
    In order to do this it must be able to work out the source file name for any given class which might be referenced from another (the rule also applies to package level access).
