Does iPhoto & photoshop elements share the same photo library

By memory I assume you mean disk space. The best way to do that is to move your libraries to external HD's which are inexpensive. I keep my music, photo and movie libraries on EHD's which keeps my internal HD relatively free. My internal HD is 320GB however it still has 219GB free because I manage the internal HD for only the OS and critical files that are accessed daily. Here are two links that show how how easy it is to do:
iPhoto: How to move the Library to a EHD
iTunes: How to move the library to a EHD
If you get an EHD with a fast connection you probably won't see any difference in speed accessing files. If your machine has a FW800 port then use it with a FW800 EHD. Three drives I'd recommend for their quality and features are the:
OWC Mercury Elite Pro series
LaCie d2 Quadra series
G-Tech G-DRIVE series

How to share the i-Photo Library on the same i-Mac with 2 Accounts?

I am using a iMac running OSX 10.8.4. there are 2 accounts, mine and my wife's. we wish to be able to share the i-Photo Library on the same computer. So I copied the i-Photo library from my Library folder to the Users Shared folder and then deleted the original i-Photo library in my Library Folder.
Now when I or my wife go to open i-Photo in either Account we get a message saying that the i-Photo Library is being exaimed and then tthen tells us there is a problem reading or accessing some files within the Library. It then asks us if we wish to Repair the Permissions. If we tell it to repair the permissions it does so and opens up and we can use i-Photo. If I swap to my wife's account I get the same problem. I repair the permissions and I can then use i-Photo within her Account.
But when I swap back to my Account and try open i-Photo again I get the same problem. And the same happens if I go back to my wife's Account again.
What can I do to remedy this problem?? Thanks

Hi Neil, I have carried out the process you described, so I have a new mounted Image on my hard drive called Storage. I have moved the i-Photo library to this Storage Image and ticked the box which says ignore permissions and ownership. But now when I go to open i-Photo in my account or in my wife's account it says it cannot access the library because the volume is locked. But I can't see it being locked??
Please help???

Can 2 different computer accounts share the same Itunes library?

Does anyone know: Is it possible for two users on the same computer to "SHARE" the same iTunes Library so you don't have to duplicate libraries on the hard disk?
So far I have been having to load 25GB of Music on my wife's account and the same 25GB itunes library on my account.
I have put the single iTunes files in the "PUBLIC" music folder and set that as the default on the ITUNES "Preferences" but still does not work for some reason.
Thanks

Yes sir, did that but it still has the same problem.
Now when I go to my wife's account (everything identical , playlists, etc. in both accounts) it does not know where to locate the songs. I place it in the default and it works, but as soon as I go back to the other persons account, the default has automatically changed back, and none of the playlists (although still intact) have again lost the location of the actual music (located on in the Public Music folder) very frustrating.
It would seem to be simple.

My ipad imessages are coming up on my husband's iphone. Is that because we share an apple id account. How can we have separate apple id's and still share the same music library.

my ipad imessages are coming up on my husband's iphone. Is that because we share an apple id account. How can we have separate apple id's and still share the same music library.

The biggest problem I have is with cross texting. My friends send my a imessage on ipad to ipad and it comes up as message on my husband's phone as well as my ipad?
My friends definitely do not want my husband seeing their texts. (and I dont really need him to see my responses either)
Also, apple id is based on my email account, how do I create a new apple id without setting up a new email account?

Can iPhoto and Lightroom share the same master file?

I have loaded all my images into iPhoto. Lightroom cannot see the files until I made alias folders and placed them in Pictures. Now lightroom can see them. Lightroom is non destructive and should not damage the masters. Is that the same for iPhoto? Any problems in sharing the same master file?

I have 20k images that take up 100G. Eighty percent are JPEG and have already been edited. iPhoto seems ideal for this group. Kids and grandkids like to go down memory lane and this seems to be easy to navigate. The remaining 20% are mostly raw files and need editing. I already have Lightroom and had been using it in my old PC. I am new to modern Mac’s having changed over to PC from Mac 10 years ago. I loaded all my photo files to iPhoto not knowing that the master file was hidden.
Lightroom is a great editor. Almost all the advanced photographers in our club use Lightroom for 90% of their images. Ten % require layer capability so they use Photoshop CS5 or Elements. By the way there is now a layer plug in for Lightroom that works pretty well.
The work flow I envision, if possible, would be to enter new raw images into Lightroom and edit. The master raw images could go anywhere. Could they reside in the iPhoto master file? The export would be jpeg to iPhoto. For existing images I would use the iPhoto master list to import the 20% group to Lightroom. You don’t really import the images but borrow the image. The masters are never altered. When you export an edited jpeg, the master stays unaltered in it’s original file. Does iPhoto operate the same way.
I read where Lightroom jpeg images cause a problem for iPhoto. Still a problem?

HT6378 Can I share my iCloud-Photo-Library with my wife, so that photos from my iPhone and all photos from my wifes iPhone are in the same Photo-Library?

I have a Apple-ID and my wife has her own Apple-ID, but I want to use only one iCloud-Photo-Library. Is that possible?
I have created a Family-Sharing, but when I now set Foto-Library to on at both of our iPhones, I have one Library for my wife and another one for me.
Is there a trick?

Someone else can probably answer the family sharing question better than I can, but I wanted to respond with an alternate suggestion. I didn't find the features I wanted in family sharing, so I didn't give it much of a chance. It did seem like you'd have a separate album for each family member.
I just recently started using Flickr and it's great. I looked into it a few years ago and there were limitations on how many MB's you could upload per day and I don't remember being impressed by the amount of free storage. Now Flickr gives you 1000 GB for free and stores the image in the original quality and size. If you download the Flickr app on your phone, you can set it to automatically upload all of the new pictures on your iphone, ipad, etc. If you and a family member share a Flickr account, you can both auto sync your camera rolls into the same Flickr account.
Personally, I'm using Flickr as a way to automatically back up photos for free. I quickly ran out of free icloud storage and I haven't wanted to pay for more.In Flickr, the auto uploads from your phone are set to private by default, but you could use flickr to share albums with friends who don't own any apple products... unlike icloud photo sharing, that only allows your friends with an apple device to view shared albums.

Styles in Premiere and Photoshop Elements not the same!

I have Elements Premiere and Photoshop v11. I created a menu using an image with some text in Premiere for a video.. Later on I decided to duplicate the effort using Photoshop.. In Premiere I used a text style called "Lithos Gold Strokes 52". Now, in Photoshop they styles are called Graphics and the Text Graphics doesn't have this Style.. So they don't seem to be the same across both applications. How can I get the "Lithos Gold Strokes 52" Style in Photoshop?
Rgds,
Viking

After finally having solved this problem, I thought I'd post the link to the original solution which has been archived. For me, the important thing was to delelet all registry entries related to Elements, rebooting and starting Elements again.

How do 2 iphones share the same itunes library?

My partner & I initially had 1 ipod classic for home use with a massive library. We then had 2 smaller ipods for car & travel etc. So we have 1 apple ID where we both purchase music & just share it.
I then bought an iphone & happily used it. My partner then recently got an iphone. Now, some texts & photos get shared on both phones ( as we use the same apple ID) & they both get filled up with data as they share everything.
What is the easiest way of seperating them. If we now get another ID presumably we wont be able to share the itunes library we've built up (ie 30 years worth of Cds & last 6 years of downloads) and don't want to copy it.
V confused. Dont want to lose individual photos or numbers & we are v low tech!

Does iPhoto 9.6 work with iCloud Photo Library at all?

I have iOs 8.1, but I have not enabled iCloud Drive or iCloud Photo Library yet, and I have not updated to Yosemite yet. I don't want to activate those until I know how photos between thee mac and iPhone will work after they are enabled.
Does iPhoto 9.6 interact at all with iCloud Photo Library? Does it even "see" iCPL photos similar to PhotoStream? Can it import from there? Do any of the crops and edits come through in iPhoto from the iOS photos app (whether imported from the iCPL or even via direct d/l from the phone via usb?

So what are you guys doing to manage your photos until the OSX Photos app come out? Just not using iCloud Photo Library at all I assume?
Can you use iCloud photo library but still manually import photos into iPhoto from USB import?
You can view your iCloud Photo Library (Beta) and download from iCloud Photo Library (Beta) at https://beta.icloud.com or https://www.icloud.com on your Mac, if you click the "Photos" icon. Click the "?" mark, to view the help for "Photos". But you cannot yet upload directly from your Mac to this library, even if the iCloud Photos Help is saying otherwise.
You can download to your mac from your devices using USB, but with iCloud Photo Library (Beta) enabled on your iPad or iPhone, you can no longer sync photos to them using iTunes Photo sync. So it is hard to get any photos onto your devices at the moment, other than using Photo Stream. To upload photos to your iPad/iPhone using iTunes you have to disable iCloud Photo Library. And the synced photos will be erased, when you enable iCloud Photo Library again.

My husband and I share the same music library on my Mac.

How do I give him access to the music on his iPhone using the iTunes Match

Is there a way that I can change my husband's Apple account to be included with my Apple ID? Then would he be able to share the music?
Apple IDs cannot be combined or merged, so, no. However he can still continue to sync his iPhone with iTunes just has he has been doing.
FYI, the most likely reason the system is set up like this is because the record labels (i.e. the copyright holders) demanded it. They are terrified of "piracy" and so do everything in their power to make actually using their digital products difficult for consumers.
If you wish to cancel and get a refund you'll need to contact iTunes Store support directly.

How can multiple apple Id's share the same iTunes library?

We are now starting to venture into teenagers and ore-teens. I would like to create multiple ID's for messaging and contacts, but I still want to use the same library... Is that an option?

Yes they have different sign ins for iCloud, FaceTime, Messages and iTunes, you can all use the same ID to sign into iTunes but use different ones for the others.

How can two users share the same iTunes library in 10.7

I am running Lion 10.7 and there are two users on the iMac.
I would like full read/write access to our share music from either user account.
Currently I have the iTunes Media folder in users/shared and on my account it looks like a regular iTunes and in my preferences I have ticked the 'share' box, but on my wifes account she can see the shared library but the only view available is a simple list.

Try putting it on a removable drive, like a flash drive.

How can a family of 6 share the same itunes library?

My family has a major problem on our hands. We are new to ipods and itunes. We have 1 itunes account. My sons are too young to have their own accounts. They are too young for a credit card, and can't have a paypal account until they're 18. We want to keep our music separate from each others. How do we do this with only one library? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

One thing not mentioned is that if you decide on the multiple user approach, you can have your music folder in Shared Documents so you only store the tracks once.
Each user is free to choose which of those tracks they want in their library.
There is an Apple help article on multiple users.

Can a Mac and a Win share the same music library on an external?

I have a Powerbook, my wife a Toshiba laptop, both are authorized under my account. She's relatively new to iTunes and ipod so she has a small library on her Win machine. My Itunes library has grown so large I'm about to move it to an external drive. I'd like her to be able to access that library to load her ipod.
Is it a matter of formatting the external the correct way?
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Interesting question!
I think the answer is FAT32, but I'd rather you tried NTFS first.
