Can I keep an app on one user account, and delete it on the other?

I have two separate user accounts on my MacBook Pro (OS X Lion); one for school and one for personal use. I cannot have Oovoo on my school account, because I cannot access my school's wireless network with Oovoo (because it is a form of social networking). Can i erase Ooovoo from my school account, but keep it on my personal account?

You probably can, but I'm not sure I see the point. Just don't use it on the school network. But if the temptation is too strong, and if "Oovoo" (which I've never heard of) is a self-contained application, move it into the home folder of your personal account. You can create an Applications subfolder and put in there.

    Hi, how do i set up my iMac, iPad and iPhones so that when i delete an e-mail (or other action) from one it automatically syncs and duplicates the action on the other devices?

    You need an IMAP-type email service rather than a POP-type mail service. IMAP automatically does what you want. Contact your email provider to see if they offer IMAP.

  • After power down and a cold restart, I automatically restart in my Administrator Account.  Running 10.8.4 with one Administrator account, one user account and one guest account.  Recently downloaded and installed 3rd party software (Panorama).

    After power down and a cold restart, I automatically restart in my Administrator Account.  Running 10.8.4 with one Administrator account, one user account and one guest account.  Recently downloaded and installed 3rd party software (Panorama).  Installation required that I create a super user named Other with root privileges. I did so and successfully installed the 3rd party software.  I powered down a few days late and when I restarted, I went automatically to my Administrator account with no login password required.  I deleted the Other account, powered down and restarted with the same result - opened in Administrator.   I then followed the steps to disable root user, powered down, cold restart - same result, opened in Administrator account.
    Any suggestions?  Any thoughts?  Much appreciate any help you might offer.

    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • I have 2 macbooks each with an account for me and one for my wife. I use one Macbook logged in with my account and my wife uses the other Macbook only loged in on her account. We both make regular time-machine back-ups each on a separate external disk

    I have 2 Macbooks each with an account for me and one for my wife. I use one Macbook logged in with my account and my wife uses the other Macbook only logged in on her account. We both make regular time-machine back-ups each on a separate external disk. Is it possible to update her account on my macbook using her external disk without overwriting my stuff on the same Macbook and vice versa?

    Time Machine does not do individual accounts. It records the complete drive. So if you were to use her TM backup on your Mac it would make your Mac just like hers. Both yours and her account on your MAC.
    Just copy the missing files over from her Mac to yours. If there are differennt programs on each then they would need to be installed on both.

    Hi Brian1676,
    I am sure that you are excited about the arrival of your new phones. I don't blame you! We are certainly working hard to get these out as fast as we get shipments in from Apple. Have you checked your order status' here: http://bit.ly/RjmCUB? This is the most up to date information that we have available. Once the device becomes available in our warehouse, we will ship it out to you. I hope you receive it soon!

  • Can I sync certain itmes from one itunes account and certain items from another itunes account on the same ipad?

    I was wondering if an individual would be able to sync certain items from one itunes account and and items from a different itunes account to the same ipad?

    You move the song files to /Users/Shared/ and then into iTunes from the other Mac OS X user account.
    If you want to change the iTunes Store account associated with them, you need to redownload them from that account.

  • What exactly happens to my apps and settings when i create a new user account, and delete all the other user accounts?

    Such apps and settings that apply to icloud, appstore, and itunes. I know the apps will still be in the new account and any other purchased apps will be in the appstore for re-download. But what will happen I delete user accounts and choose not to save any folders or files of the soon to be deleted user accound? I don't have a disk to do a clean install and I'm trying to give my super old macbook pro to a friend and I want to make sure the laptop is his and everything of mine is gone. Will erasing free space do that trick?

    If it is not installed in HD>Applications folder and installed in a user account then it's gone with the user account. It's that simple.

  • Can I restrict itunes to just one user account in windows 7

    Hi there,
    I have just bought an iPhone and was wondering if it possible to set up two user accounts on my PC that are entirely separate from one another (OS Windows 7). The reason being is that I want to be able to use my iphone with iTunes on one account/partition, but I don't want iTunes to be at all evident on, or have any influence over, the other account: I use both an iPhone and a Creative MP3 player, so want to to keep my MP3s and WMAs synched with Windows Media Player, but I still want to be able to download apps, films and upload photos using my iphone through iTunes.
    To illustrate, if I set up two user accounts on my computer - FRED and JANE for example - and install iTunes on FRED's profile only, will it also appear on JANE's profile? If so, is there anyway round this? If I can't achieve this through user accounts, can I do this by partitioning my hard drive into two and then setting up some kind of dual-boot process?
    Many thanks in advance for any advice, I am perplexed by all of this!!

    Just an update to the question that I presented when I started this thread.
    You really never did say what type of a User Account you are using in your Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 on Windows 7? But based on the information provided by several users, User Account with Administrative Rights seems to be the way to go since all of them were using it and had systems that were running well. I would have expected that based on the Premiere Elements Windows XP requirements. I have yet to have someone come forward to say that they are using Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 on Windows 7 with a User Account with Standard Rights and the program is running well. Will you be that one?
    Besides me switching from Windows XP to Windows 7 in the near future, what motivated this line of questioning was the report that I had seen of a user with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1on Windows 7 who was reporting "permission" error messages when trying to archive a project with the Project Archiver (Archiver "Trimmed" and Copy options). Further questioning brought out that the problem extended to the AutoSave feature as well. The user claimed to be saving to an external hard drive (formatted NTFS) with about 800 MB free space. And still further questioning brought out that the error message included a free space and/or permissions error. Yes, there were extremely large file sizes involved here (way over 4 GB)
    The story had a happy ending where the remedies were:
    1. User Account with Administrative Rights
    and the major
    2. Formatting the thought to be NTFS external hard drive from FAT32 to NTFS.

  • Address Bar works on one user account and not on the other

    Hi,
    I've trawled through so many forums to find an answer to my problem - perhaps it's quite unique.
    About a year ago my firefox address bar's autocomplete stopped working at all. I have the latest version and I've tried all the tricks around dumping the cache etc. Anyway, I got a new Mac yesterday and I opened up Firefox and everything worked as it should - great.
    However, I moved all my files/settings/applications etc across from my ole mac via migration assistant and now firefox does not work properly on that user account. So, I have two user accounts on the same mac, both running the same software applications. The user account with all the old files etc is the one I want to continue to use but Firefox won't work properly on it.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled, updated the version, cleared the cache...everything I can think of.
    I'm sick of Chrome crashing on me.
    Can anyone help???

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How to create new user account and delete old one?

    Greetings,
    we have wanted to change our alias on the discussions group but understand from the frequently asked questions section that,
    "Once you create an alias, you cannot make changes to it. If you want to change your alias, you will need to create a new User Account".
    However it does not go on to tell us specifically how to now set up a "new User Account". Could someone specify how to do this? And if we do this, how would we then delete the current User Account? Thank you.
    Chris

    Thanks for the reply.
    However I am still confused. I originally thought the "user account" referred to an account specific to the Discussions Forums, not the general "Apple ID" however your email seems to suggest they are one and the same....Please clarify.
    If so, however I do not think I am able to change my Apple ID. As I am a mobile me user I am required to us my mobile me address for my apple ID.....and do not think I can have two ID's with the same mobile me address.....
    Any additional thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.
    Chris
    Not with the same Primary address, but you can use your MM address as a secondary one. That is how I have my 2 Apple IDs setup. 1 uses my Dot Mac address and the other uses an ISP address as the Primary with the latter having my Dot Mac address as an alternate address.
    Warning, even if you create a new account, you won't be able to use your current ALIAS with the new account.
