How can multiple users simultaneously use 1 library?

We have 3 computers in our home and have our music on a networked drive, with on each computer an itunes library. We would like to have 1 itunes library on the networked drive, that each of the computers can access simultaneously. How can we achieve this?

only one instance of iTunes @ a time can access the same library, sorry.
you should be able to +work around+ the problem using _*Home Sharing*_.

How can multiple users want to use airpaly to apple tv?

Our family wants to be able to share different media from our iphones/itouches through Apple TV 2. How can we do this? It seems that only one device and connect at a time. While we understand that all 4 of our devices cannot simultaneously connect and play, we would like to be able switch back and forth. We cannot. Also, when the last person to use Airplay is leaves the house or is gone (their itunes library is closed/off), others would like to access the Airplay through their device to the Apple TV 2 but more often than not we cannot seem to get the Apple TV 2 to recognize a new user. Any tips?

It's a fundamental oversight of Home Sharing - it assumes you're a single user with a single AppleID.
You can go to Setting>Computers and log out of one AppleID and change to another HomeSharing ID, but that seems a hassle.

How can multiple users use the same Creative Cloud Individual on one single-machine?

We have one shared graphics workstation, which is infrequently in use by different people - therefore we bought a single-workstation license (which we were referred to "Creative Cloud Individual"). In the FAQs it says it installs locally, but whenever a user different from the installing adminstrator logs in, he is forced to use the trial.
Is there a way to make the local installation usable on that single machine for multiple users?
Thanks in advance for your reply

Serenatasystems do the other users not have administrator access? What happens if they sign in using the Adobe ID tied to your Creative Cloud subscription? Do your Adobe Creative applications then exit trial mode?

How can multiple users from different locations access my Muse website files to update them?

We're a team, and we need to be able to work together remotely.
How can I let another user (on the East Coast - I'm on the West coast) have access to my Muse website files so that they can work on them and make changes - but I can also work on them here?
I've already made them an Admin in the Manage section of the live Muse website that is hosted on Business Catalyst.
BTW, they also belong to Creative Cloud.
Thanks!

You need to share your .muse file with this other person.
Muse does not currently support multiple users opening the same .muse file at the same time.
There's lots of options for sharing a file - you could copy it up to a company network server, or email the file back and forth, or use a filesharing service like Dropbox, SendThisFile, Adobe SendNow, or Creative cloud sync, among others.
Which one is right for you depends on the size of your file, how often you're sending the file back and forth, and personal preferences
Whatever you choose, it's important that you DO NOT have 2 users working on the same .muse file at the same time. This can cause corruption of your .muse file. I'd also recommend frequent backups of your .muse file, as you might find that one of you clobbers a change made by the other and you want to be able to go back to your old copy of your .muse file to copy/paste some content to your latest copy of your .muse file.

How can multiple users edit and access same ACCESS file

Hello,
We have 2 access files and multiple users needs to edit and access those files.
How can I enable mulitple access but only one user can edit rest of users are in read-only mode for one file and multiple access and edit on the another file.

Hi,
You should split your database in a front and backend. Then create two seperate front ends which you can distribute. If you need readonly you can opt for two options, setting the attributes of the file to read only or create a front end with read only forms.
The last one takes a little more work but is safer than setting the attributes to read only because people can change that back themselfs.

Can multiple users share Aperture Library over network

I'm considering moving over to Aperture because iPhoto is starting to show the strain under the number of RAW pictures I'm uploading. My current iPhoto library is stored on my NAS and is shared between my RMBP and MacMini. If I make the transition over to Aperture will I be able to have the same set-up?
Thanks
VP

iPhoto is starting to show the strain under the number of RAW pictures I'm uploading.
What do you consider to be a "strain"?
Poor response time? I suspect, that will be more due to the network access on a NAS than to the library size.
You might try to put your Aperture 3 library on a NAS, but it is not recommended by Apple, see:
Use locally mounted Mac OS X Extended volumes for your Aperture library
You will have to ensure,
that you do not open the Library from both your Macs at the same time,
and you will have to ensure, that the library is only on a disk formatted "Mac OS X Extended". SInce your NAS has a different formatting, put the Aperture library onto a disk image on the NAS. You will have to mount this disk image, before you access the library, like recommended here for iPhoto, see: iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1198
But as I said, if poor performance should be your main reason for switching from iPhoto to Aperture, you will not gain much, if you keep the library on a network attached volume, unless you have a very fast network connection.
The best performance you get in Aperture with the library on the fasted drive you have. I keep my Aperture library on the internal SSD and the original master image files (the bulk of the data) on a second internal drive.

How can a user that uses a Remote Deskop Gateway reset their password if it expired?

Right now when a Remote Desktop Gateway user's password expires, the gateway server does not prompt them to change it. Instead, it just doesn't allow them to connect to their machine.
How can a remote user reset their expired password if they use a Remote Desktop Gateway to initiate the remote session?

Hi,
Just to extend on Armin's points,
If VPN access would be available, using AD authentication would still not allow you access if the password needs changing. If using a VPN, you would not need a gateway as you will connect to
the LAN in most instances.
The RDWeb site would need to be used in conjunction with the gateway if you are not using a VPN. The RDWeb and Gateway Roles can be installed on the same server simplyfing the deployment.
As Armin has suggested, i would recommend that you look at Password reset from the RDWeb interface or look at a identity management product Like FIM 2010 R2 which provided a Password reset
feature that can be published exernally.

How can multiple users share a catalog?

PSE 5 - We have multiple users sign on to the same PC. The catalog is created on a network drive that all have access to. Photos added to the catalog by one user are not accessible by another user. Is the catalog profile-dependant? Is there some setting I am missing?

The users can open the photos directly in Windows Picture Viewer but, for some users, the catalog looks empty in Photoshop Elements.
1. Verify that each account is indeed loading the same catalog. Do Help > System Info within the PSE Organizer to verify the catalog name and location is identical. Perhaps one or more the accounts is opening another default (empty) catalog.
2. Ensure the Organizer is showing you all the files:
a. In View > Media Types, check all the types.
b. In the Organize pane on the right, check Hidden to see if any of the cataloged photos are marked "hidden".
c. Do Fine > Clear Date Range.
d. If Back To All Photos is showing in the upper right, click it.

How can multiple users save passwords securely on a shared computer

there are three people in my house that all use the same laptop to access the internet and have all been using the save passwords feature... i have just discovered that in the security preference any of us can see the others passwords. the only way i can see of hiding this is with a master password but as we would all need to know the master password that wouldnt really work. how can i hide everyones passwords from everyone else?

You would have to run separate profiles.

How can multiple users manage the same forms?

We are looking to purchase FormsCenral however after read this FAQ on teams we are confused:
http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2903#Q3
How do we manage forms if more than one user needs to make changes to the same forms?

You would have a primary user/e-mail address attached to your FormsCentral account, and you can assign multiple co-authors to any of your forms. They would need to each have a free Adobe ID.
I work in a Higher Education setting, and have co-workers and Graduate Assistants who are co-authors on forms I've produced, so they can each edit and/or view the submitted response tables.
I hope that helps,
Brian

How can multiple users spool to same file?

I am using SQL*plus for 10g db. I am spooling query output to a file. Query should be run and spooled multiple times overwriting previous output.
here is the main piece from the query.sql file
SPOOL output.txt
SELECT....
SPOOL OFF
Let's say user Dan runs this query for the first time. An output.txt is created. Dan can run the query multiple times and each time new data is spooled to output.txt. Now Mike is trying to run this query. Nothing happens!
I thought the issue has to be with file permissions. However, the issue remained after I gave ALL permissions (a=rwx) to both files: query.sql & output.txt. Funny thing is that I created query.sql and now I (or any other users, except Dan) cannot run it.
Thank you!

How can multiple users work on one source file?

Hi There,
I'm currently working on a project that I would like to hand-off to another person to finish. I've tried sending the source file located in at: Home>Movie>iMovie Projects but apparently that doesn't work as the second user is unable to work on the project.
Is this achievable? If so, how?
Thank you in advance for any help! It's greatly appreciated =)

For iMovie 09, you:
You have to plug in an external drive, and within iMovie, drag the project file to the external drive. It will ask you if you want to "copy project" or "copy project and events".
If you want to move the project and not just make a copy, then hold down the Command key while you drag the project file to the external drive.
iMovie 08 does not have the capability of having project files on the external drive, but you can try to manually copy it to the external drive with the finder, and then move the associated events +from within iMovie+ (critical for the other machine to find the files) and when copying the project file to the other computer, it would be critical to find the iMovie project folder in the Movies folder and put it in exactly the same place on the other machine. Otherwise iMovie won't find it.
The way you want to use it, iLife09 might be worth the upgrade, especially if my suggestions don't work.

How can 2 users sharing a library rate songs differently?

My partner and I share a big music library.
Our tastes differ so it's annoying when songs he loves, but I hate, pop up in "my top rated" playlist.
Can ITunes accomodate 2 different sets of user ratings?

How can multiple family members use one account?

My children have iphones, ipads, ipods and mac books, my problem is how do you use home sharing with the devices and not get each others data. My Husband just added his iphone to the account and got all of my daughters contacts. I understand they could have there own accounts but if i buy music on itunes and both children want the same song, I don't feel i should have to pay for it twice. Is there away we can have home sharing on the devices and they can pick and choose what they want? and is this icloud going to make it harder to keep their devices seperate?

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Here adding to the words of “Tim”, a forwarder is a DNS server on a network used to forward DNS queries for external DNS names to DNS servers outside of that network. You can also forward queries according to specific domain names using conditional forwarders.
A DNS server on a network is designated as a forwarder by having the other DNS servers in the network forward the queries they cannot resolve locally to that DNS server. You can refer information regarding forwarders and how to configure from beneath link.
