Creating a common workspace under OS X

I thought this would be simple, but I'm having trouble coming up with an answer.
I have several people who will be using a single Mac to do their work, and they would like to have a way of sharing read/write access to certain files. I thought I could just tell them to save or copy the files in /Users/Shared but it seems this only makes the files readable to others. What I'd like is to have a directory where anything placed in that directory is automatically readable/writable by a group of accounts on the computer.
I thought this would be easy with Leopard's introduction of Groups under the Accounts System Preference and more granular control in Sharing, but so far I haven't found what seems like a "right" approach, even with chmod.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Thank you, that gets me close. However, when I tested your solution I found that it didn't quite work. I.e.
1. Followed your instructions, except I named my group 'editing". I have two users in the group, named test1 and test2.
2. With test2, created a new folder "untitled folder" under /Users/Shared/sharedstuff. Then also opened Textedit and saved a new file "untitled" into /Users/Shared/sharedstuff.
3. As test1, I can now open and delete both "untitled folder" and "untitled". I can create new subfolders under "untitled folder". However, if I open "untitled", make changes, and try to save, I am told that I don't have permission.
Unless I am confusing myself somehow, it seems that the permissions are only being inherited to subdirectories, not to files. E.g.
ls -le
total 8
-rw-r--r--@ 1 test2 staff 324 Nov 6 16:25 Untitled.rtf
drwxr-xr-x+ 4 test2 wheel 136 Nov 6 16:17 untitled folder
0: group:editing inherited allow list,addfile,search,delete,add_subdirectory,delete_child,chown,file_inherit,directoryinherit
I think in particular I want "add_file" and "add_subdirectory" to be inherited and translated to "write" and "append" for files in the sharedstuff folder. But it isn't happening. Can anyone confirm this? If so would it be accurate to call this a bug?

Is there a way to create a "common desktop" for all RD/TS 2012 users? (Office 2010 icons on the dekstop, for example.)

Hello! Just like the title, is there a way to create a "common desktop" for all RD/TS 2012 users?
I know how to do this using regular W7 workstations and 2008 Servers, but the "Default" folder under the USERS directory is gone and I'm not sure how to get the icons there in Windows 8, let alone Server 2012 Remote Desktop.
I've installed Office 2010 on the 2012 server, but every end user that logs in has to manually type in "Word," "Excel." "PowerPoint." etc from the metro interface, then right-click each icon to add the shortcut to the desktop.
Given the... uh.. unfamiliarity of our endusers around the computer, this really isn't the best option. What I'd like is them to log on and have all the Office icons ready and availible for them.
Any ideas?

Hi,
You can edit the local GPP and create a desktop shortcut for all users.

Also, you can use CopyProfile to customize the Default User Profile.

Multiple workspaces under one Group

I have a Group (Group A) with about 100+participants. I also created a workspace when I created the group.
Later,one of the participants created a workspace under this group. So, I now have 2 workspaces under this group.
I want to give access to some participants only to Workspace 2 without giving them access to Workspace 1. How will I be able to do that?

Ah,
What you are trying to do is have 2 Workspaces drawing members from one group and that is OK if and only if the master workspace - matching the group name is going to hold all the users and only a subset of them will be in Workspace 2. If you wnat workspace 2 to have users that are not in workspace 1 then you will have to create another group and use that to populate the Workspace 2.

How do I create two iTunes accounts under the same email address?

I've got my account duplicated -and charged for apps I already own- by using my email address as login instead of apple ID, but I've been told it's my fault so…
I'm trying to figure out
*How do I do to create two iTunes accounts under the same email and having different IDs?*
I mean, two accounts with different purchase history. It doesn't matter if billing address, or credit card are the same (or different) because none of them flag apps as "purchased"
I tried today from iTunes, but it tells me the email is taken.
Do you know any way a user can do it from our end? (website, iTunes, iPhone)
If you've got charged by apps twice, please don't say it here. I don't want my post being deleted again. Thanks.

Beavis2084:
Expired .mac accounts HAVE NO EMAIL. You own the id (which iTunes requests to be spelled in form of an email)
Also, FREE .mac accounts have no email either.
What you see in the screenshots is what I'm saying:
There's been a change in the way iTunes wants you to login. The iTunes reps see at their end what you see at the top of the window, which probably is the "migration" of the new login: Old login system, using ID (in form of email for iTunes)
BELOW you clearly see where says "ID" and both have the email as login.
(again, that .mac email doesn't exist and NEVER DID)
That's the NEW login: your EMAIL.
I'm sorry I didn't explain it better the first time. I wrote about this so many times to iTunes support reps to prevent them to "read" what their system says that I gave it for settled. (not to mention that my first post was removed because "it lacks of interest for others"
I own an apple ID, given away with the purchase of a new computer (nothing small by the way) and when that happens (and never subscribe for a paid membership), you use ANOTHER email to be related to your account.
Now that AGAIN apple asks you for using your EMAIL (non-apple in our case) instead of your ID (which you can't use or you will never get a notification again!) the system believes there are two accounts.
It's like your credit card bank changing the address for sending the payments. You are STILL paying, but getting a higher rate because their CHANGED the address and the check never arrives.
In this case, signing in with a different string, makes the system believe there are two accounts. And that probably is under the policy which probably states purchases are not charged twice for SAME ID, and SAME iPhone… and you used a different ID, so it must be fair (sarcasm). Who told you to do so? Bad boy!

Create a new view under a component in IC Webclient UI

Hi ,
Can anyone tell how to create a new view under a component in IC Webclient UI.
Regards,
Sijo

Depends what kind of view you are talking about. In any case first go to runtime repository on the left panel of the component and then click the edit button.
If you are talking about interface view, right click the component interface and choose "Add interface view". The created view is added to the selected window in the runtime repository.
If you want to add view to the window right click the windows component and select "Add view".
Select the view using the f4 help and save the runtime repository.

How to: Create a folder directly under the KM content 'Root' directory

I need to create a new folder directly under the 'root' directory of the KM content...
If I go to the KM root directory and click on any of the folders in it, I can create new folders.
For example: clicking on the 'documents' folder. Opening it, I can create new folders by clicking on 'Folder' --> 'New' --> 'Folder'.
However, when I am in the root directory itself, the only option under 'Folder' is 'Clipboard'.
How can I create a new folder under the Root? Am I missing a role?
Cheers,
Edwin.

You cannot create a folder under root directory
all the folders that you are seeing under root are KM Repositories.
You need to create a repository and then in that you can create a folder structure.
As an example Documetns is a standard SAP KM repository. You can also create your own repository under
system admin-> system configuraiton->KM->CM-> Repository Managers
There you can get options of creating the repositories
Hope it is clear
also check the below thread that will help you

Unable to create an Developer app under Company profile

Hi,
Have created an account under development center to upload the mobile application for company use. But when i go to payment option and enter the credit card details able to see the deduction amount of 2 INR only, but as in website it has been mentioned
as INR4500.
Kindly help me out on creating the developer account under business use.

Does this make sense? I am asking to verify if the gateway website exists and it is running because these symptoms have been reported before and the cause was exactly that.
If that is the case, then the simplest way to "fix" it is to delete the gateway resource from the portal (it will be re-created when the next api app is created). Otherwise, using the subscription ID, I can look through logs for more
clues.
It is unfortunate that it is possible to delete the website hosting the gateway without deleting the gateway resource itself, thus leaving it in a non-functional state. Short term we added a better error message when this happens. Long
term we are looking into ways to make this more robust.

Can't create new BeehiveOnline Workspace "You do not have the required..."

I'm trying to create a new BeehiveOnline Workspace. I follow the instructions from the FAQ, but as soon as I click on the "New/Workspace" option, I receive this error "You do not have the required privileges to create a workspace in this Location"
The location looks like "/Oracle" but when I click on the associated "+" icon, nothing else displays.
I am trying to create this new workspace around Mid-Day on Sunday in Australia, so is it possible the system is "down", or is this a genuine privileges error? and if so how do I fix it?

This error is caused by you not having workspace creation rights - BeehiveOnline has restrictions on who can create workspaces. Go to beehiveonline.oracle.com and click on the right button. Find out who the group administrator is of your group and ask them to grant you workspace creation rights.

Creating a Analytic Workspace

hi,
i use the AWM 10.2.0.3.Now I want to create a analytic workspace without the AWM, but i want to see the things what I have created in him. I Know that I can use the dbms_aw package to create an aw and for the dimensions and so on the dbms_awm package. For the OLAP Catalog Metadata I want to use the cwm2 package. How I have understood I must first create the Metadata for the OLAP Catalog with the cwm2 package and then I can define the dimensions with the dbms_awm. Is that right???
At first I have defined a aw with the command: execute dbms_aw.execute ('aw create ''myaw''');
After this I want to create the OLAP Catalog Metadata for the dimension Placement, but by creating the mappings he brings an excepiton and I don't know why.

How to create separate Meeting Workspaces and attendees of the meetings from subsequent Meeting Workspaces and it's Attendees

Hello Community
    I created an "objective" and "Agenda" in a Meeting Workspace and added
"Attendees".
    Later on I created another "objective" and "Agenda" in a Meeting Workspace
but, the "objective/Agenda" and Attendees from the last "objective/Agenda" remain visible.
    The question is how do you create an objective/Agenda and apply the
attendees that will attend that "Meeting Workspace" and then later create
another "objective/Agenda" and enter the "Attendees" to that new Meeting Workspace?
    Note: Another way to ask the question is how do you separate and save
each Meeting Workspace its "objective/Agenda" and its attendees subsequent
objective/Agenda and its attendees so that you can see each individual meeting
and the attendees of that meeting?
    Thank you
    Shabeaut

Hi Shabeaut,
We could create/link to a meeting workspace when we create a calendar event as I posted above, we could also create a meeting workspace without creating an event.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-foundation-help/create-customize-and-delete-a-meeting-workspace-site-HA010378262.aspx
Here is the reference for Decision Meeting workspace:
http://techwirenews.com/2013/01/15/using-decision-meeting-workspace-in-sharepoint-2010-office-365-part-ii/
In most cases, each meeting workspace is dedicated for certain meeting event in one to one relationship. You need to create difference workspaces for differenct meetings.
