Do two dot mac email accounts have to share the same address book?

I have a dot mac account with 2 email accounts. Do we both have to share the same address book? It's pretty much a hassle for both of us to have our personal contacts all mixed together. Thank you!

I guess we actually don't have a good reason. There are 4 family members using the computer, it's usually on all the time, and I guess we thought it would be easier to be able to just jump on and off without switching. But if that is the only way to have separate address books we may have to set it up that way. So do you think thats pretty much what we have to do?

I have an icloud account with two other users besides myself. We share the same game center. We want our own. My two children want their own Clash of Clans account! What do I do?

Log out of Gamecenter and try downloading CoC again. if it doesn't prompt you with a new village, try downloading with a different apple id. if that doesn't work, you would need a new device to create a new village and transferring it to your sons device using the code in the CoC settings.

Obvious question: If you want to have access to the same folders andapplications, why have two accounts? The point of different accounts is that you don't have access to the other person's data.
Any application in the HD/Applications folder is available in all accounts.
Sharing data between accounts depends on the material being shared. So, if you can provide more details we maybe able to help you better.

If you purchased about 2 years ago new I am sure it is a Intel iMac. To find out what type of iMac you have just click on the Apple menu item in the finder and select about this Mac. I would check the ISP mail site and get the correct outgoing mail server info.

Are you referring to @mac.com, @me.com or @icloud.com emails? Or some other email providers emails?
If the former, it should do that automatically. If the latter, no. iCloud does not (nor is it supposed to) sync non-Apple provided emails.

My mac, ipad and apple tv share the same itunes account. Why do movies rented from itunes on my ipad or mac not show up in my apple tv? is there a way to get them there?

Rentals are one-time only downloads, they will not show on other devices/computers for redownloading.
If you rent a film on your iPad or Apple TV then you can only watch it on that device. If you rent it on your Mac then you can move it from there to your iPhone or your Apple TV (if it's a first gen Apple TV) : FAQs about renting movies from the iTunes Store :
If you rented the movie on your computer, you can move it to an iOS device or Apple TV (1st generation). To do this, connect the devices and sync using USB. When you move a rented movie from your computer, it will disappear from your computer’s iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as much as you want, but you can only have it on one device at a time.
If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.

How do I assign a particular email account of mine to a particular Address-Book contact?

I have a few email accounts. I am also on several 'Email Lists'.
when I am reading an email from one of the "Lists" and I want to reply, then I'd like Thunderbird to use the correct email account to match the contact in the address book which is associated with the Email List.
So how do I assign a particular email account of mine to a particular Address-Book contact?

Thank you for the reply.
Thunderbird may do that. Somewhere.
However, as I test this theory, in my own "Local Folders" area, in all cases, when I hit 'Reply' or reply-all, Thunderbird uses the 'Default' email account of the program Thunderbird, for want of a better description.
Recall that each incoming Email is filtered as to some criteria then placed in appropriate "Local Folders" named folder.

My email account has been hacked and my address book has been used to send unsolicitated emails to all my contacts, how can I stop this activity

My email account has been hacked and my address book has been used to send unsolicitated emails to all my contacts.

First of all
Run windows in safe mode (with network) and change your password on your email account.
Then
run several anti-malware programs (there are many free ones, but not all are trustworthy)
Malwarebyte >> http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php
Microsoft Safety Scanner >> http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx
Windows Defender >> http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/using-defender
Spybot >> http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html
Kasperky >> http://www.kaspersky.com/security-scan
Rootkit scanner TDSS-Killer >> http://support.kaspersky.com/5350
And when all is clean, change password for your email account again.

I have multiple devices (imacs, lap tops and ipads) all connected to a NAS server. Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife, and each have our own apple ID, and Itunes accounts, but all share the same media on NAS drives?

I have multiple devices (iMacs, Lap tops, Ipads) all connected to a Nas Drive. Can I create a user for myself and one for my wife and we each have our own apple ID's, Itunes etc, but share the same data on the hard drives? So when she logs in, and sync's her ipads, they will sync with her stuff and when I do the same under my user account, on the same device, my ipads will sync with my stuff?

You can share the same Apple ID for purchasng form the iTunes and app stores without any problems, but you should all used separate iCloud accounts with separate Apple IDs. (You are not required to use the same ID for iCloud and other services as you do for the iTunes store.) This will prevent you from ending up with merged data. You should also use separate Apple IDs for iMessage and FaceTime or you will end up getting each other's text messages and FaceTime calls.

Family sharing (do we have to share the same credit card and sharing working for everyone?

I was wondering if family sharing was working for anyone else? I set it up and the way I believe you access another family members purchases is by going to your purchase history either in itunes or in the app store. From there you can pick your purchases or another family members purchases but when I do this I only see my purchases. Am I doing this wrong or is it not working.
Also is there a way we all don't have to use the same credit card?
Thank You,
Laura

Am I correct in my first post regarding how you are suppose to access someone else's purchases? it doesn't seem to be working for me I added the other person and see accepted and when I go to family share she is there but I can't find her purchases

I want the same address book on my two Macs

Using Sync, it seems easy to exchange your address book data with your mobile phone etc. But all I want is the address books on my two Macs be identical. Sync just does not seem the appropiate tool for that. How do I do this?
iMac G4 + Mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.3) Tiger on the Mini, Panther on the iMac

.Mac Sync - which requires a .Mac account - is the Apple recommended method for synchronizing iCal or Address Book data on two or more Macintosh desktop or portable computers.
You can alternatively use MySync [currently in beta] so long as both Macintoshes are located on the same subnet.

How do I log into more than one email account and view at the same time?

In the past, I could log in to hotmail.com and open and view more than one email account in firefox. I must have closed something, so now I can't do that?
HELP???

Hi Shasanka,
ofcourse it's possible to control more than one instrument at a time.
You should use the VISA routines to access all your devices. Every device get it's 'address' as 'VISA resource name'. This resource name contains information on the used bussystem and the (internal) device address (i.e. GPIB devices have an address number).
So I suggest to read the manual and to look at the examples that come with LabView!
And (from your question) it seems you should take the 3 or 6 hour seminar as well! (Look at www.ni.com -> academics.)
Best regards,

Using two Desktop Macs with HP LP2475w monitor at the same time?

Hello,
I was curious to know if anyone knows if I can use this monitor with a 2010 MAC and a G4 MAC from about 10 years ago at the same time? There are many ports on the HP monitor that can possibley be used simataneously? I am worried this will damage the video card on the MAC(s) that I have. I have a feeling I have to switch one off and use the them one at a time.
The reason I am asking is that I have an old Nikon Coolscan 4000 fim scanner and Nikon for some crap reason has never updated their Nikon software for the INTEL Macs. (oh... they think film is dead and no one has 1000's of slides) but the scanner will work on my G4 Mac. I don't want to continoulsy turn off one MAC and turn on the other.
Thank you

Here's the Wiki definition of a "KVM Switch". But briefly, yes, you can switch among computers use a common keyboard, video, and mouse on the fly, hence the name "KVM". 2-port KVM's are for two systems but KVMs do exist to handle more than 2 systems (at a higher cost of course).
I would google searches for "DVI KVM" and/or "Displayport KVM".
If I were doing this at this I would probably be looking for DVI's as opposed to Displayport not for any real technical reasons but only because on my mac I have mini-displayports and a DVI port so I am currently familiar with the kinds of adaptors, cables, etc. involved. I haven't needed to deal with a full sized displayport but I imagine there's suitable cables and adapters for that too. I suspect the deciding factor would come down to cost as to which kind to use.

Address Book - two users sharing the same address book

My wife and I have separate accounts on the same mac. How can she share access to my address book. I tried to copy it over to a new directory in the same path ie, users>name>library>applicationsupport>addressbook - but this didn't work and caused the dreaded spinning icon.

Checkout the macosxhints.com article "Share one Address Book among multiple users".
