How can two computers use time machine on same Time Capsule?
I just purchased a Time Capsule and successfully backed up my computer. My brother is on the same network but cannot get Time Machine to back him up on the Time Capsule without my backup being deleted.
How does one enable Time Capsule to serve as back up for two different computers?
There are some options:
Manually delete a number of old backups from the Mac that's "hogging" the space, per #12 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions. After "compacting" that sparse bundle per the pink box there, you may be able to limit the maximum size of it, per #A8 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
Another is to connect a USB drive to the TC (likely with a powered USB hub), and back the other Mac up to it, instead of the TC's internal HD.

how can two people use itunes in the same household? i had a iphone before so alreday had an itunes account now me and my husband have upgraded and we now both have them. he has set up a username and i have mine yet when he logs in he seems to just get my account? please help
Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account. On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing Notes with iCloud, you'll also have to email your notes to yourself so they can be recreated in the new account as they cannot be migrated.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting your wife's data from your account, and vice versa). -
Can two computers use same iTunes library on a network drive?
Can two computers use directly (rather than share) the same iTunes library on a network drive?
My media library is on a network drive attached to my Airport Extreme. Right now I share the library with my desktop Mac. I can share fine, but I would like to be able to add, delete, and make other changes in the media library from both computers. The two computers would not be accessing the library at the same time as I am the sole user of both.I appreciate your input and I think you're right about this being impossible. But just to clarify, you say I can't "have multiple machines accessing the same music files from a shared location." I can have multiple machines accessing the same music files from a shared location--I just can't have them accessing the same music files simultaneously--which may have been what you meant. For my situation, I think it will be less work to just quit iTunes on my server when I want to run it on my client (using Chicken of the VNC). It's not ideal, but it's less time-consuming than periodically syncing three computers.
Again, thanks for the input. -

My Apple ID and rescue email are reversed. How can I change them both at the same time?
I'd already used this standard tool (exhaustively!), but for the problem encountered it operated in Catch 22 mode - you had to do two things but neither order was permitted. I did find an answer eventually, but am not sure what it was I did that solved it! Thanks, anyway.

In Adobe Photoshop Elements 7.0, how can I delete multiple photos at the same time? Please be a little specific so I can follow your instructions as I'm not real smart at computers; I'm an intermediate user. Thank you.
Shift-click the photos or Ctrl-click them to select them, then right-click one of them and choose Delete from Catalog. They will all go together.

Can two subVI show up at the same time?
Can two subVI show up at the same time?
Hi,
Save the vi as a template (*.vit), then you can open it (dynamically) as
often as you want. If you make the vi "floating", you get the best results.

Wiebe.

Between any two computers, using hashCode() will get same digit?
between any two computers, using hashCode() will get same digit?
For the same object on the same machine running in the same JVM, hashcode is required to return the same integer primitive if the object is to be successfully manipulated in containers.
All other bets are off.

Im using Lion on a MacBook Pro 15in (just under two years old) and I would like to know if I can lock numerous photo files at the same time so I can make changes to them. At the moment when I select an entire folder to go through and make changes, ie rotate in Preview, I am told with each photo that I have to unlock it. I am going through photos I took of archival material and have nearly 5000 photos to adjust and make changes to. This small step is taking up a lot of time.
I realise there will probably be a common 'sense' answer to this but it alludes me at the moment so any help would be appreciated.

Hi guys,
I backed up two different computers on the same time machine disk. Now, one of my computer is dead. I can see the backups on my time machine disk. How can I get the backup data that belongs to dead computer. When I enter time machine, I only have access to corresponding backup. I do not want to destroy the backups. My timemachine backup structure looks like below:
-->Backups.backupdb
-->Computer-1
-->Computer-2
Now, my Computer-1 is dead, and I am using Compter-2. If possible I wan to know a way of accessing Computer-1 data without destroying any other backups/files etc. Than you!I loathe sending people offsite for information except WRT time machine. The late James Pond was a master at all things Time Machine related...maybe more....may he rest in peace for his contributions to ASC.

How do I use two computers in logic at the same time?
I would like to find out how to make two computers work in the same project, both having logic installed.
No that is not possible.
You talk about a synchronized system. iCloud is doing something similar to work on the same document on different computers and have them synchronized. However that creates a problem if two computers (users) updating the same file which creates a conflict because the computer doesn't know which file to update wiht what.
However, Logic has a very easy feature to import tracks from one Project to another. It is the Browser window.
Mount each other's computer so you have access to the individual Project on each other's computer
Open the Browser window in Logic in your Project and navigate to to your friends Project
Select that Project and pick any Track (optional: content, plugin, settings, etc)
If you want to update only the data, just select that track and only its content and choose overwrite existing Track.
Play around a bit and you will see that it is an amazing (often overlooked and underrated) feature.
Hope that helps

Can two computers use the same backup??
I restored a seperate Macbook pro from the Time machine backup of MY Macbook. So I have two computers operating from the same backup. Is that recommended??
Yes, it should do. Once you change the name of the computer make sure you reset TM
See A4 here. http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
When you start the backup it will create a new sparsebundle.. (like a virtual disk that holds the backup on network drives) and you will be able to check that it is correct because it should be a new full backup.
Then you can do a full backup of one of the machines.. the other machine can continue to use the original backup.
