Connect to multiple drives in the same directory?

Please pardon me for not using correct terminology. I cannot mount (map) two drives in the same directory. I use "Go >Connect to Server >smb://fs.domain.edu/~directory/folder1" and the folder1 icon pops up on my desktop. Then if I use the same structure with /~directory/folder2, the Finder window opens to the same folder1 I originally mounted. I have to disconnect from the first before I can successfully mount the second. Since I sometimes need to work on documents in both simultaneously, it is VERY inconvenient. Is there a solution, and is it on my machine or do I need to bug our techies (again)??

No. In the Go >Connect to Server dialog they show as:
smb://fs.domain.edu/~directory/folder1
smb://fs.domain.edu/~directory/folder2
I have access also to another directory:
smb://fs.domain.edu/~directory2/folder1
smb://fs.domain.edu/~directory2/folder2
And can simultaneously mount a drive in that directory with a drive in the other directory, but cannot simultaneously mount two drives in the same directory.

Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.

Connecting to multiple clusters from the same client

We have a scenario where our cache client (extend client) should be able to connect to multiple clusters. All the clusters use the exact same configuration (same caches, same services etc) but running in different geographical locations. I know that the <remote-addresses> can be used to add multiple addresses but I'm assuming this is provided solely for fault tolerance. So, does the client actually support connecting to multiple clusters at the same time?
Thanks
Sijo Mathew

Hi Sijo,
Normally to connect a client to multiple clusters you would just define multiple <proxy-scheme> settings in your client configuration file, each one having a different name and pointing to a different cluster. You then map caches to the proxy-scheme for the cluster those caches live on.
What may confuse things in your case is that you say the different clusters are identical and contain the same caches and services so you may have problems mapping caches on the client to different clusters.
What are you trying to achieve by doing this if the clusters are all identical?

Can the iphone 4s bluetooth connect to multiple devices at the same time?

I would like to broadcast to multiple bluetooth enabled devices such as 2 car stereos to play the same song at the same time.

No. It's a limitation of the BlueTooth protocol.

Bluetooth connection to multiple devices with the same device name

I just got a new iPhone 4 and am having trouble connecting it to my car's bluetooth. We have two GM vehicles which both have bluetooth. I can connect to one vehicle with no problems, but when I try to connect to the other, the phone tries to connect to the first car since both have the device name of "General Motors". With my old phone, I could change the name of the connection in the phone so that each car had a different name. How do I do this on my iPhone?
Thanks for the help?

Contribute multiple instances of the same connection appear on login/start screen

I am administering a series of sub-websites under one primary umbrella.
- The Primary Umbrella site does not run under the Contribute Publishing Server
- The secondary (child) sites are managed by the Contribute Publishing Server
- We recently added a user to several of these subsites
- After we added the user, we've had a problem with other user profiles.
- Multiple instances of the same connection will appear upon login on the start screen ( about:startscreen ). However the user seems to only be able to credential to one of them, not both.
I have gone into the user profile directory within Windows directory structure and removed both site dirs. However when restarting and reconnecting, both appear again.
Anyone else have this issue and what is the remedy and fix?

I tried to add a screenshot, however it would not let me upload.
I get: An error occurred while trying to submit your post. Please try again.

Yes, you simply share the drive to the network.. in whatever way that is possible as you have given us no info.. over the network TM will create sparsebundles.. locally it can produce a straight backup ..

How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing?

How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing. The program seems to be picking up the same songs from, for example, my user area and my public area in the C drive

As above, Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library, however it is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve/merge ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

What's the problem with having multiple users with the same UID?

I've got three edit systems connected to the SAN using open directory off our server.
I want all edit systems to have read/write access to everything created. I don't need to protect anything from any of the systems. With all three systems logged on using the same user, I never have to change permissions.
The other cool thing about this is that Final Cut Pro will let me know if someone else is modifying a project that I have open with the warning:
“The project "projectName" has been modified externally. If another user is working on it, saving will overwrite their changes. Do you still want to save?”
This sounds great, right?
RED FLAG!!!! Apple gives the warning in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302450
"You should not allow two users with the same UID to access an Xsan volume at the same time."
So why is it bad to have two (or more) users with the same UID?
I can see that in some situations it means that you can't prevent people from read/write privileges. But I don't want to restrict privileges.
What am I missing? With all of these warnings, it seems like if I do this my edit systems could all explode or something. Please help me understand the potential ramifications of having three users have the same UID.

Hi Russell,
1) If you have OD set up and "editor" has UID 1111, then when they log in to any machine that's bound to OD as editor, they will get UID 1111. Therefore, there won't be any of these permission errors. This is typically the recommended approach.
2) I assume you mean "You'd prefer to not using open directory?" Whatever the case, OD isn't mandatory with Xsan -- it's just that with multiple user accounts, managing them centrally tends to be easier. For 3 or 4 accounts and 3 or 4 machines maybe it's no big deal. If you go larger, it could get a lot more complicated. That said, if you set it up such that each machine has the exact same set of users (as you said, Mary = UID 502, Fred = UID 503, William = UID 504), then you can do what you want. Mary can log in from multiple machines at the same time, and in general you won't have permissions problems. Of course, if you try and read and write the same file from multiple workstations at the same time, you will get file locking issues, which will prohibit somebody from successfully writing the file.
File locking issues are different from general permissions errors. The former basically says "hey, someone else is editing this file. Therefore I won't let you edit it right now... you can read it if you want though." Permissions means somebody saves it, and Xsan thinks you saved it and own the file, when you really don't.

Import/Rip using more than one CD/DVD drive at the same time.

I have two DVD/CD dual layer readers/burners and would like to be able to import audio CDs into iTunes from both drives at the same time.
Is this supported?
If so, how do I do it?
If not, is it planned for future releases?
Thanks in advance!

STRING ???
You are kidding are you?
What programming language are you using here?
And what exactly is your requirement?
Running multiple INSERTs in a single transaction?
To do that, just open a connection with autocommit off,
prepare and execute all your INSERT-Statements
(you'll want to use BIND variables and not STRING concatenation for that. Ever heard of SQL injection?),
and finally you commit or rollback your transaction.
Voilá.

APP that will copy to multiple destinations at the same time?

Is there an APP that will copy folders to multiple destinations at the same time?
I'm copying like 16GBs at a time.. And would like to write to 2 separate destinations at once. SPEED is very important. A verify function would be very nice...
Tx..
Joe

This can be easily accomplished using Automator. Create a new Automator Files/Folders action. Steps involved are 'Get Specific Finder Items' and 'Copy Finder Items'. Save this as a Finder Application. I have a few of these just for copying to multiple destinations at once.
Copy speeds are dependent only to the buses that the drives are connected to. If the drives are all on separate buses, copy speeds will be as fast as they can be.
Hope this helps.

Sharing one iTunes library across multiple accounts on the same Mac

Hello, I've poked around at some of the posts dealing with sharing one iTunes music library across multiple accounts on the same Mac but it seems like this can only be done if the libary is moved to a shared folder. I realize this can be done but I was trying to share it the way it is described in a post on Apple support (See link below.). That post seemed to imply that you don't have to move the library from its original location (owned by account A, e.g.), rather just make a couple preference changes in the accounts, use fast user switching and voila. That doesn't seem to work. So my question is this: Is the only way to share one iTunes music library across multiple accounts on the same Mac to move it to a shared folder? I'm running 10.4.8 on an Intel iMac. Thanks in advance!

After reading this and several other related threads, I am becoming thoroughly confused about all of this. I have a situation similar to the one that pokerpal described in the post dated January 7 at 8:06 pm, except that the music files on my system are located on an external hard drive. Everything else is pretty much the same though - I am the admin user (and the main iTunes user and maintainer) and my girlfriend is a standard user who has no music in her own iTunes library. She can see and listen to and make playlists from and sync her iPod with the music in this library from her account, and I can do the same thing, independent of her, from my account. And if I make a change to information within a song, she doesn't see it, and vice versa, and I understand that. What I don't understand is why when I add a song or an album to the music files by importing a CD or downloading something from the iTunes Music Store, she has no way of knowing that unless I tell her, and then she can add it to her library by using the "Add to Library" function. Is there no way of automatically updating her library files to add the new song(s)? We have almost 15,000 songs and videos in that library, and I don't even want to think about what might have to happen if the answer to my question is "no." Interestingly enough, if I put an update to a Word document in the same exact location (on the hard drive), we can update that and pass it back and forth all day - why is that such a difficult task for iTunes to accomplish?
Sorry I went on so long, but this has been building up for some time, and none of the solutions I've read about here have really been of any help, so I'm a bit frustrated and, as I said at the beginning, confused.
