First time using multiple users - how do I share addy books, etc?

Hello, We just got the new iMac and for the first time I am setting it up for multiple users. Can anyone guide me to a tutorial or guide on sharing different things between users?
Specifically, I'd like to share iTunes and iPhoto libraries and also Entourage address books with the new users that have been set up. Probably some other stuff to that I'm not thinking of. I browsed around without any luck.
Many thanks.

You're welcome!
I've been on these discussion boards with various logins I always seem to forget since the iMac first came out, 8 years or so ago.
LOL Yeah, I have to drop the Welcome... bit. It's bitten me two or three times already since the forums software was changed....
I'd at least like to import my current address book into my wife's address book...
Open your Address Book and choose the Directory, 'All.' Select an entry and then do Command-A so that all of the entries are highlighted. Go to the File menu and choose Export vCard. Export it to your Desktop, and then put it in the Shared folder. Log in to your wife's account, open Address Book, and then from the File menu, choose Import > vCards, point to the vCard in the Shared folder, and you're set....

  • Matrix Program - First time using multiple classes

    I'm writing a program right now that takes matrices from an input file specified by the user. The file is in this format.
    #rows #columns
    1 1 1 1 1 1
    1 1 1 1 1 1
    1 1 1 1 1 1
    So in place of #rows I would have a 3, and #columns would be a 6. They are seperated by a space, as are the elements.
    I have two classes, one entitled Proj6 (Yes, it's a school assignment) and one called Matrix. Proj6 chooses the name of the file to use. After the Matrix class creates the two matrices, using loops, Proj6 then asks what I would like to do to these matrices. I must be able to:
    Print the two Matrices
    Add
    Subtract (just in the order of Matrix 1 - Matrix 2)
    Transpose Matrix one.
    Quit the program.
    Here is my Proj6 Class:
    public class Proj6 {
         public static Scanner s;
         public static Scanner f;
         public static void main(String[]args) throws FileNotFoundException {
              System.out.print("Please Enter the filename, complete with extension: ");
              s = new Scanner(System.in);
              f = new Scanner(new File(s.nextLine()));
              String fline = (f.nextLine());
              StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(fline ," ");
              String r = st.nextToken();
              int row = Integer.parseInt(r);
              String c = st.nextToken();
              int col = Integer.parseInt(c);
              Matrix m1 = new Matrix(row,col);
              for (int i = 0; i < row; i++){
                   fline = (f.nextLine());
                   for (int j = 0; j < col; j++){
                        while (st.hasMoreTokens()){
                        String x = st.nextToken();
                        int value = Integer.parseInt(x);                              
                        m1.setElem(i,j,value);     
              f.nextLine();
              fline = (f.nextLine());
              r = st.nextToken();

                   for (int j = 0; j < col; j++){
                        while (st.hasMoreTokens()){
                        String x = st.nextToken();
                        int value = Integer.parseInt(x);                              
                        m2.setElem(o,j,value);                    
              System.out.println("Enter (p)rint, (a)dd, (t)ranspose, or (q)uit");
              String a = s.nextLine();
              char action = a.charAt(0);
              if (action == 'p') {
                        String print1 = Matrix.toString(m1);
                        System.out.println("First");
                        System.out.println();
                        System.out.print(print1);
                        String print2 = Matrix.toString(m2);
                        System.out.println("Second");
                        System.out.println();
                        System.out.print(print2);
              else if (action == 'a') {
              else if (action == 't') {
                        Matrix m1t = new Matrix(transpose(m1));
                        Matrix m2t = new Matrix(transpose(m2));
                        String print1 = Matrix.toString(m1t);
              else {
                        System.exit(-1);
    }Here is my "Matrix" class
    import java.util.*;
    public class Matrix {
         public int row;
         public int col;
         public int[][] arr = new int[row][col];
         Matrix (int row, int col) {
              arr = new int[row][col];          
         public void setElem(int row, int col, int value) {
              arr[row][col] = value;
         public String toString (Matrix m){
              return null;
         public Matrix plusMatrix (Matrix m) {
              if (m1.length != m2.length || m1.length[0] != m2.length[0]) {
                   return null;
              Matrix x = new Matrix(m1.length,m1.length[0]);
              int number;
              for (int i = 0; i<m1.length; i ++) {
                   for (int j = 0; j<m1[0].length; j ++) {
                        number = (Integer.parseInt(m1[i][j]) + Integer.parseInt(m2[i][j]));
                        x.setElem(i,j,number);
              return x;
         public Matrix minusMatrix(Matrix m) {
              Matrix x = new Matrix(m1.length, m1.length[0]);
              return x;
         public Matrix transpose (Matrix m) {
              int number;
              Matrix x = new Matrix(m1.length[0],m1.length);
              for (int i = 0; i< m1.length[0]; i ++) {
                   for (int j = 0; j<m1.length; j ++) {
                        number = Integer.parseInt(m1[i][j]);
                        x.setElem(i,j,number);                    
              return x;
    }I'm having two main problems:
    First, my references to "m1" and "m2" in the Matrix class get the cannot be resolved errors. Once I've created the matrices correctly (in theory) why can't I refer to them in Matrix?
    Second, I don't think that I'm creating the matrix quite correctly. I know that Tokenizer is technically obsolete, but I'm more familiar with it than the split method.
    I'm required to use a toString method in Matrix to "Print" the matrices from each function, but I'm not allowed to send it any parameters, or use any print statements in the Matrix class.
    Can you guys catch any errors that I can rectify without necessarily changing my techniques? Or at least provide a thorough explanation for any technique changes?

    My new, updated code is having trouble getting the Matrices inputted correctly
    public class Proj6 {
         public static Scanner s;
         public static Scanner f;
         public static void main(String[]args) throws FileNotFoundException {
              System.out.print("Please Enter the filename, complete with extension: ");
              s = new Scanner(System.in);
              f = new Scanner(new File(s.nextLine()));
              String fline = (f.nextLine());
              StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(fline ," ");
              int row = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
              int col = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
              Matrix m1 = new Matrix(row,col);
              System.out.println(row + "  " + col);
              System.out.print(fline);
              f.nextLine();
              f.nextLine();
              fline = f.nextLine();
              for (int i = 0; i < row; i++){               
                   while (st.hasMoreTokens()) {
                        int value = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
                        System.out.println(value);
                        for (int j = 0; j < col; j++){
                             m1.setElem(i,j,value);     
                   fline = (f.nextLine());
              //System.out.println(toString());
              System.out.println(fline);
              System.out.println("Here begins the second matrix");
              int row2 = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
              int col2 = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
              System.out.print(row2 + "  " + col2);
              Matrix m2 = new Matrix(row2,col2);
              for (int o = 0; o < row2; o++){
                   f.nextLine();
                   while (st.hasMoreTokens()) {
                        int value = Integer.parseInt(st.nextToken());
                        for (int j = 0; j < col2; j++){
                             m2.setElem(o,j,value);                    
              }When I run this code with this matrix file:
    3 5
    8 19 7 15 4
    21 42 9 0 26
    13 7 2 1 16
    4 5
    2 12 6 9 0
    40 22 8 4 17
    3 13 8 29 10
    1 1 1 1 1 I get:
    3 5
    3 52 12 6 9 0
    Here begins the second matrix
    it's not moving through correctly. The f.nextLine()operator, and its relation to the string fline is confusing me.

    First time use of a secondhand 3gs; SIM failure (the SIM works fine in other handsets); any suggestions as to how I can fix this?

    Hi L.T.D.,
    To only answer the question you asked, the answer is yes you can do those specific tasks you mentioned.
    My example:
    Since you don't want the sentence if A2 is blank you would modify this formula to something like this:
    =IF(ISBLANK(A2),"","the patient reports "&A2&" that won't leave.")
    I don't see a problem if all you are looking to do is to translate your form or forms into a report. I could even see several different forms reporting to one sheet that tracks their history. It may require a lot of maintenance if there are an increasing number of forms reporting.
    Sometimes merged cells create difficulty in Numbers. A mix of popups and checkboxes may complicate things.
    I think the previous advice may turn out to be the best, though. You are asking,"If I head this way am I headed to Japan?" I am saying "Yes". They are saying, "You will need a boat!"

  • Qosmio F60 - Each time it starts up, says it is first-time use

    My notebook has just come back from being repaired (they replaced the hard-drive). Now every time I turn it on or it restarts, it says that Windows is configuring the computer for first-time use. Once on, the control panel pops up with 'How to customise your computer'. Plus, a small window pops up with "System Preparation Tool 3.14" and even if I click OK, it doesn't work.
    Otherwise my computer works normally.
    How do I stop my notebook from thinking it's starting for the first time?

    Hi buddy,
    > a small window pops up with "System Preparation Tool 3.14" and even if I click OK, it doesn't work.
    And what happens if you dont click on this tool?
    Maybe the notebook was reinstalled from authorized service provider and so the installation must be finished.
    Otherwise I would recommend reinstalling Windows from Toshiba recovery disk again. Maybe something went wrong during installation and so it would be necessary to reinstall Windows again.

  • Help.. First Time Using DVD Studio Pro!!

    OK .. this is my first time using DVD Studio Pro. Before this I have always used IDVD for my Final Cut Projects, but I now need to branch out!
    I've hit a bit of a brick wall. I've watched the video tutorials and tried to read the instruction manual, but it's heavy going!!!.. can someone help me get over the hump?
    Here's where I've got to:
    - In my Assets tab I have my two file - Test.mov QT Video File and Test.mov QT Audio file. Both are yellow uncompressed video. I also have a templates folder.
    - I chose the template called brush cover which I can see under the menu tab on a window. If I go to that same window and select the graphical tab I can see a menu 1 and track 1.
    - In my timeline I have dragged my Video and adui assets over and can see them and actually play the movie.
    - What is also worth mentioning is that I can also see the 18 chapter markers that I created in FCP.
    - Now I hit the brick wall!!.
    - Back in my menu I see 8 buttons. In my timeline I have 18 chapters. How do I transfer my 18 chapters over to my menu so that I have 18 buttons each one representing a chapter?
    - I'm sure that it's obvious and a silly question.. but for a rookie like me who's trying to figure this out from scratch it's not easy!
    Thanks for any advise!!.. also if anyone has a good 'idiot's guide' for ex iDVD people moving to DVD Pro then I'd really appreciate it!
    Many Thanks!
    Steve.

    Back in my menu I see 8 buttons. In my timeline I have 18 chapters. How do I transfer my 18 chapters over to my menu so that I have 18 buttons each one representing a chapter?
    You can duplicate your 8 buttons menu so many time as you need to include your 18 chapters, creating a simple new button to navigate through Chapter Menu1, Chapter Menu2, etc.
    Or you can duplicte&resize buttons to fit more of them in a single menu, but 18 button chapters could be too much for a comfortable navigation.
    Thanks for any advise!!.. also if anyone has a good 'idiot's guide' for ex iDVD people moving to DVD Pro then I'd really appreciate it!
    You can use the Search feature in this forum and almost for sure you'll find any answer you need, in particular for basic stuff.

  • SQL Server Management Studio - Configuring the environment for first time use

    Hi
    I have recently switched my local 'My Documents' folder location to a network drive that I 'make available off line' to allow on-line/off-line work and synchronisation when I am working in and out of the office.
    When I load my SQL Server Management Studio 2005 I frequently get 'Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio is configuring the environment for first time use'.
    Management Studio  them loads and I can continue without problem.
    I am guessing it is trying to make reference to some settings file. Any ideas? I wonder if I can change/move these settings elsewhere to a local drive?

  • First time using external hard drive for backup of computer....

    First time using external hard drive for backup of computer....it asks "Do do you want to erase disk?" In order to proceed, I have to say "yes" ... is that what I want to do? ...Seems like I'm skipping a step...

    To use Disk Utilities, attach the drive, open Finder > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utilities and then highlight the LaCie drive in the left panel of the DU window.  In the right panel, choose the Partition button top center of the pane.  Then decide how many partitions you want on the drive, one is just fine.
    Then choose the format, the default is Mac OS Extended (Journaled) which is prefered.
    Then name the partition or drive.
    Then choose the partition table, the default is GUID which is prefered.
    Then Apply and you will get to confirm that you want to erase and format the drive.
    Quit DU and you are ready to go.

    to activate iphone, you should connect your iphone to your computer which should have itunes via your usb cable provided with your iphone problem. and you don't need to register an account to activate the iphone. but you need to register to download apps for iphone.
    it have to be unlocked to work with other country's normal sim card. you should have a malaysian mini sim card to make a normal at&t iphone work in malaysia and other countries.

    Unlocked is the term used to describe mobile phones that are not tied to a particular service provider in order to be used. Many cell phones are tied to a single cellular provider at their introduction, but are later unlocked for use on many networks.

    hello,
    im first time using my n8 ovi map, and i wonder why it took hours for checking for my position,
    after 2-3 hours of waiting, it still searching for my position. instead of keep waiting, i switch to walking mode, and set a destination, now it shows "waiting for GPS". i have been waiting for more than 1 hour, sadly it still showing "waiting for GPS". Anyone experiences this problem before? please provide me some solutions. thanks.

    @NokiN8Silver
    Welcome to the forum!
    You might try as a temporary measure going to Menu > Settings > Application settings > Positioning > Positioning methods - only enable Integrated GPS then go outside away from tall buildings and it should lock on to satellites within 20 -30 minutes; once position established subsequent satellite lock on will be much more rapid.
