Can you lock administrator users out of each others user folders?

Currently I can access each admin's user-folder from any other administrator account. Is there a way i can change the permissions so that this is not possible?
As an adjunct to this question: Right now the main two users of this machine are logging in as administrator accounts. Can I just add an admin account and downgrade these two to standard accounts, or is it more complicated than that?
thanks for your help.

Administrators can change permissions on any file in the system, so while you can set it up so by default they cannot see each other's files, all it will take is a permissions change to allow access. Still, if you want to prevent other administrators from seeing a specific file or folder, go to the desired item and get info on it. Then ensure only you are listed as the one with read and write accessibility, and set the other entries to "no access".
That should do it. If it doesnt, then you may need to use command line utilities to ensure only you have access. However, again keep in mind that while you can set this up, any administrator can get around it by changing the permissions for the file again. This will only present a temporary hurdle...

    Hi,
    Acrobat xi - RE: Add sound icon- skin displayed is a 'blank white box' until it is clicked to activate it- can you lock skin to display before its activated so that in a print run the skin shows up (ie the controls-or any kind of greyed out rectangle, like video controls before 1st activation) and not the blank white box- if no, I guess I have to activate all sound icons before doing a print run?thanks)).

    Many of your points are totally legitimate.
    This one, however, is not:
    …To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
    The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
    The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.

  • How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?

    How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?
    We are two people using three difrent Macs, 1 Iphone and 1 Ipad with separate USERS  on each Mac but sharing the same Apple ID: xxxxxx
    I set up the first user to iCloud and it was OK but when I set up the second user to use iCoud the first users's info gets mixed with the second user's info?
    Do we have to set up a diffrent Apple ID for each other?
    Sometime ago I added my friends E mail (yyyyy) to the main Apple ID (xxxx) as for using his E mail account (to separate our e mail accounts, and it's working ok) but now when I try to create a new apple ID whith the same friend's e mail (yyyyyy)  it says that his mail (yyyyy) is already an apple ID when the Apple ID is really my E mail (xxxxx)... any clue?
    Thanks

    I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
    Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
    Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
    Hope that helps

    Can you have multiple users for one account? if so how do you set it up.
    We are using it for our department and it would be great to see who created what form instead of it being all one name.

    Each person should have their own account. You can easily share the forms with other people in your department. You will be able to see who the author of the form is.

  • Can you lock touch screen when watching videos!??

    Can you lock the screen so it doesn't become a touch screen when watching videos!??
    Just got new ipod (7th gen) and this driving me crazy that I think I'm going to continue to use my older one unless there is a solution out there. I watch tv shows while commuting and while walking here or there I have to 'palm' the ipod or walk with it at my side, and the problem is that since the touch screen is sooooo sensitive I keep fwding/rewinding/swiping the screen to something else, and then to get back to that part in the video is a pain because unlike the older ipod you can just fwd a few secs, this one jumps minutes because it's so sensitive. PLEASE tell me there's a way to lock it from accidently touching it!

    No - there is no such switch on the iPad - the switches control volume, muting, screen rotation, and the home button itself.
    You could place it behind a screen of some sort so touching the outer screen won't affect the iPad screen - I've seen ads for 'presentation kiosk' type devices for the iPad that allow this, although I'm not sure how practical they would be in the backseat of a car.

  • Can you lock a pdf file?

    Hi all! I have a client who has created a pdf booklet. It's a form that people will be filling out. She wants to distribute it on a CD. So... people will have to be able to copy it to their computer to open and fill it in. However, she then wants them to NOT be able to copy the pdf (she doesn't want it duplicated so that others can use it). Is this even possible? Can you lock a pdf like that? Thanks!
    Julie

    >What kind of restrictions?
    Check File>Properties>Security for the different options.
    Keep in mind that security on a PDF file is easy to get around.

  • Hi, We are a physiotherapy practice trying to use i-cal as a clinic diary systaem for 15 therapists. We need to block out availability of therapists but cant do this? How can you block someones diary out for specific times on i-cal? Any help please..

    Hi, We are a physiotherapy practice trying to use i-cal as a clinic diary system for 15 therapists. We need to block out availability of therapists but cant do this? How can you block someones diary out for specific times on i-cal? Any help please..

    iCal is designed for personal use, and isn't really meant to handle this sort of situation.
    The best suggestion I can offer, though it's a trifle untidy, is: create a calendar for each therapist, giving each a different colour. Enter the availability for each therapist - if it's on a weekly basis you can make them repeating events. Then add the individual appointments, which will show alongside in the daily view. In this example, the 'purple' therapist is available from 1030 to 1700 and has appointments at 1200 and 1500.
    If you have more than a few therapists available at any one time it's liable to look a bit messy, but it's the best I can think of at the moment.

  • Concentrator 3015 - Can you lock clients down by PORT?

    I have a 3015 setup and have created a tunnel, which works fine. I also have it locked down to specific IP addresses.
    My question is, Can you lock the cleints down to only a few specific ports? (ex. port 3389 only)

    Yes, you can. There are a few steps that you need to take in order to do this. In a nutshell, you need to define a set of rules, create a filter, and then apply the filter to the group.
    To create the rules, go to: Configuration->Policy Management->Traffic Management->Rules
    Here is a link that discusses rules within the concentrator. If you scroll down the page a bit, the section below this one walks you through the process to create the rules. Take a look at some of the default rules that are configured. One thing to keep in mind is that you need to define rules for the return traffic as well unless you want to use some of the default rules to allow all outbound traffic going back to the clients.
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/vpn/vpn3000/3_6/config/polmgt.htm#1321359
    Once you have your rules defined, you need to setup a filter. The filter is nothing more than a group that allows all of the rules you have defined to be associated together. The link below talks about filters and the section below talks about adding a new filter. To create the filter go to Configuration->Policy Management->Traffic Management->Filters
    http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/vpn/vpn3000/3_6/config/polmgt.htm#1321359
    Once you have your filter defined, you need to associate it to a group. This is done in Configuration->User Management->Groups, selecting the group to apply the filter to and modifying the group. On the General tab for the group being modified, there is an option to associate a filter to the group. Select the filter you setup and apply your changes.
    I would setup a test group to allow you to get comfortable with setting up the rules/filters before implementing them on a production group where you could impact users. This will let you make sure the rules/filter you have setup works the way you expect it to while not impacting any of the production users.

  • Can you merge two user accounts on macbook? my wife has created a user on her new macbook , then inadvertently created a second one when using the migration tool. 1st ac has her office 365 install, yet 2nd has her itunes database, docs and contacts.

    Can you merge two user accounts on a macbook? my wife has created a new user on her new macbook air then, inadvertently, created a second one when using the migration tool. 1st a/c has her office 365 install, while 2nd has her itunes database, docs and contacts. What is the best way forward to get everything into the one account? Not sure if the office 365 will allow another installation into the second account, otherwise would just do that and delete the first, if that is possible?

    There is no merge but you can move data from one account to another via the Shared folder. Data is copied from Shared. Watch your free space when copying. These are large files.  Do one at a time if you are on a small drive. After making copy, delete from other users before you start next copy.
    Office365 installs in the main Applications folder and is available for all users on the computer. Activation is tied to the drive not the User.

  • Can you buy a slide out keyboard case for the six plus? Like you can for the 6.

    can you buy a slide out keyboard case for the 6 plus?

    There are 2 separate issues here:
    - The Apple 30 pin to USB cable was redesigned to remove the 2 button squeeze feature pricesley because of your issue with the buttons falling off and consumers being unable to disconnect the cords.  The newly redesigned cable removes these 2 side buttons for a shorter 30 pin connector that will work just fine in Apple devices.  If there is an ergonomic reason for wanting the larger 2 button design you can buy a host of 3rd party Apple 30 pin to USB cables on the market.  http://store.apple.com/us/product/MA591G/C/apple-30-pin-to-usb-cable?fnode=3a

    - The issue of your iPad reporting that it isn't charging is a DIFFERENT issue.  Your USB cable is FINE.  The reason you are getting this message is beacuse the Power Adaptor that the USB cable plugs into isn't providing enough electrical juice.  If you are plugging your USB cable into your PC it might not be getting enough power.  If you are plugging it into your iPhone Power Adaptor (5W) it isn't strong enough to charge your iPad with it on (it will trickle charge if you have your iPad off).  What you need is the Apple 12W charger for iPad.  Your original power adapter that came with you iPad 2 was a 10W charger that Apple no longer sells.  Make sure the USB cable you are using it plugged into either a 10W or 12W power adapter!  http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_ipad/ipad_accessories/power
    Tech speak if interested: the 12W charger uses the USB cable to detect which iPad is connected and gives it 1 AMP for iPhone, 2.1 AMP for iPad 1,2 & Mini and 2.4 AMP for iPad 3&4.
