How do I copy a folder from one user to another?

Using Lion, I had to "re-migrate" my photo folder from my old MacBook Pro to my new MacBook Pro, but it required me to set up a new user on the new computer.  Now I need to get the photo folder from user2 folder to user1.  How does one do that efficiently?

  • How do I move a folder from one user to another

    I copied folders and files from a PC to my new Mac Pro (running Yosemite).  I am now trying to figure out how to move some some of the folders transferred in from my old PC from one user to another on the Mac.  I am a first time user of a Mac desktop so thanks of any help!

    Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /Users/Shared/ as the path, drag them there, and then into the desired account's home folder.

    I have no problems copying iMovie Events from one Mac to another, however, how can I copy iMovie Projects from one Mac to another?  Any help will be appreciated.  Thank you.

    This should give you some good insight, I'd probably store them on an External HD on the old machine and then just drag and drop to the new machine.

  • How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another?

    How can I copy cell formatting from one range to another, including text fonts, colours, borders, etc., so that, for example, I can reuse a formatted reconciliation table again in different parts of a sheet?

    Hi George,
    Wayne found the Spinning Beachball of Death, and you will find it too.
    Numbers is not good at handling large datasets. Might I suggest that you group your data into smaller sets (each month, perhaps?) and save each group in a separate Numbers document. Numbers will not link between documents, but you could have a summary Table within each document. Then comes the "clunky" bit of copying all those summary tables into a master document where you do the final processing of the data.

  • How can I copy GPS information from one image to another?

    I bought a Canon S100 specifically for its GPs and movie capability.  On a recent vacation, I used the S100 and a Nikon D300.  In cases where images were taken with both cameras in approximately the same place, I would like to copy the GPS information from the S100 CR2 files to the D300 NEF files.  Does anyone know how to do this or if there is any plugins that will do it?

    The added benefit of using GeoSetter to copy the information from one photo to another, is that you can see where every already-tagged photo is on a Google map to make sure the location is actually correct.  Sometimes the camera clock is off a few seconds or minutes and you can easily figure how what offset to use by watching where the existing photos show on the map.
    Using the MS Pro Photo Tools to generate a track from the existing S100 photos and then using that track in GeoSetter to assign the rest, with interpolation enabled, seems like the best course of action if the S100 track information is no longer available.
    When using an external program to Geotag images that are already in LR, to be safe you should first save all the metadata to XMP files in the folder you’re going to tag, then exit LR, then geotag the photos, then restart LR and read information from all the XMP files.
    Another benefit of GeoSetter is that you can assign the locality information to the photos that already have just coordinates in them.

  • How do I copy the style from one control to another?

    I need to programmatically copy the style from one graph to another. I'm currently using the importstyle and export style functions but I'd like to avoid that since: 1) I'm creating >100 of the same graphs in a scrolling window and execution time is a concern, and 2) it makes it harder to redistribute the application, and 3) you shouldn't have to import/export from disk just to copy a graph style.
    I noticed the copy constructor was disabled so you can't just create a new one from the original. I suppose I could iterate through all the styles and transfer them from the master graph to all the copies but is there an easier way to do that? If not, is there some sample code for that?
    I'm using MStudio 7.0 for C
    ++.
    Thanks,
    -Bob

    One way that you could do this would be to create a helper method that configures your graph rather than configuring it at design-time, then use that helper method to apply the settings to the new graphs that you create. However, this would only work if you wanted all graphs to be configured exactly the same way - this would not work if the settings of your master graph are changing at run-time and you want the new graphs to be configured with the current settings of the master graph.
    Another approach is to query each control for IPersistPropertyBag, create an IPropertyBag, pass the IPropertyBag to the master graph's IPersistPropertyBag:ave, then pass the IPropertyBag to the new graph's IPersistPropertyBag::Load implementation. I'm not aware of any implementations of IPropertyBag that are readily available for use in applications, so the tricky part is creating the IPropertyBag. Below is a very simple implementation of IPropertyBag that should be enough to get the job done for this example. First, add this to your stdafx.h:
    #include <atlbase.h>
    CComModule _Module;
    #include <atlcom.h>
    #include <atlcoll.h>
    Here's the simple IPropertyBag implementation:
    class ATL_NO_VTABLE CSimplePropertyBag :
    public CComObjectRootEx<CComSingleThreadModel>,
    public IPropertyBag
    private:
    CAtlMap<CComBSTR, CComVariant> m_propertyMap;
    public:
    BEGIN_COM_MAP(CSimplePropertyBag)
    COM_INTERFACE_ENTRY(IPropertyBag)
    END_COM_MAP()
    STDMETHODIMP Read(LPCOLESTR pszPropName, VARIANT* pVar, IErrorLog* pErrorLog)
    HRESULT hr = E_FAIL;
    if ((pszPropName == NULL) || (pVar == NULL))
    hr = E_POINTER;
    else
    if (SUCCEEDED(::VariantClear(pVar)))
    CComBSTR key = pszPropName;
    CComVariant value;
    if (!m_propertyMap.Lookup(key, value))
    hr = E_INVALIDARG;
    else
    if (SUCCEEDED(::VariantCopy(pVar, &value)))
    hr = S_OK;
    return hr;
    STDMETHODIMP Write(LPCOLESTR pszPropName, VARIANT* pVar)
    HRESULT hr = E_FAIL;
    if ((pszPropName == NULL) || (pVar == NULL))
    hr = E_POINTER;
    else
    m_propertyMap.SetAt(pszPropName, *pVar);
    hr = S_OK;
    return hr;
    Once you have a way to create an implementation of IPropertyBag, you can use IPropertyBag and IPersistPropertyBag to copy the settings from one control to another like this:
    void CopyGraphStyle(CNiGraph& source, CNiGraph& target)
    LPUNKNOWN pSourceUnknown = source.GetControlUnknown();
    LPUNKNOWN pTargetUnknown = target.GetControlUnknown();
    if ((pSourceUnknown != NULL) && (pTargetUnknown != NULL))
    CComQIPtr<IPersistPropertyBag> pSourcePersist(pSourceUnknown);
    CComQIPtr<IPersistPropertyBag> pTargetPersist(pTargetUnknown);
    if ((pSourcePersist != NULL) && (pTargetPersist != NULL))
    CComObject<CSimplePropertyBag>* pPropertyBag = 0;
    CComObject<CSimplePropertyBag>::CreateInstance(&pPropertyBag);
    if (pPropertyBag != NULL)
    CComQIPtr<IPropertyBag> spPropertyBag(pPropertyBag);
    if (spPropertyBag != NULL)
    if (SUCCEEDED(pSourcePersist->Save(spPropertyBag, FALSE, TRUE)))
    pTargetPersist->Load(spPropertyBag, NULL);
    (Note that "CreateInstan ce" above should be CreateInstance - a space gets added for some unknown reason after I click Submit.)
    Then you can use this CopyGraphStyle method to copy the settings of the master graph to the new graph. Hope this helps.

  • How do I copy a list from one site to another that has a column that appends changes to existing text?

    I want to move a list from one SharePoint site to another, within the same collection. I have created a template and included the content but the column that is selected to append changes to existing text, has not copied in all cases, although it has for
    some items.
    I have a limited knowledge so won't be able to implement any solutions that require the use of code.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to copy a list from one site to another that has a column that appends changes to existing text.
    I recommend to use the custom workflow activity  Copy List Item Extended Activityto
    copy list items and files cross site.
    You can do this with codeless SharePoint Designer workflows as long as you can install the
    Codeplex Custom SharePoint Designer Workflow Activities. 
    These activities are also built-in to SPD2010.
    To install the custom activities, please follow the steps as below:
    Download the solution file form
    Useful Sharepoint Designer Custom Workflow Activities
    Copy the wps file to the Disk C.
    Open the SharePoint 2010 Management Shell.
    Run the command: add spsolution c:\ dp.sharepoint.workflow.wsp
    Open the Center Administration, click System Setting->Manage Farm Solution-> dp.sharepoint.workflow.wsp->Deploy to one or more Web Application.
    Open the SharePoint designer, add action from Custom Actions.

  • How to copy discoverer workbooks from one user to another user

    I need to be able to copy all workbooks from one user and save them in a shareable user account. The request is being made by his manager (in preparation for the user's retirement) so I need to do it without the user's knowledge. The manager wants to ensure that all workbooks are copied. For example, can the DBA copy all workbooks of schema JOHNDOE to APPLEX. We are using  Oracle Database 10.2.0.5.0 and Discoverer 10.1.2.3 in the Windows environment.
    Robert

    Robert
    Are these workbooks saved in the database or on a file server somewhere? If its the latter you just need to copy them to another location.
    If they are saved to the database you can export them using the Admin tool but I have a feeling you will only be able to do this if you have access to them: aka they have been shared with you. So here's several ideas:
    1. Grant JOHNDOE and APPLEX access to be an administrator then log on as JOHNDOE in the Admin tool and use File | Export | Selected Objects | Workbooks and export ALL workbooks owned by JOHNDOE. Then you log in as APPLEX and import the workbooks this time taking ownership. Now you can share them with whoever else needs them. You will need to make sure that APPLEX has access to the same business areas as JOHNDOE. When done you can revoke the admin rights of JOHNDOE.
    2. If you don't know JOHNDOE's password you could export the entire EUL to a file. For example if you EUL is owned by a user called EUL_US then create another database user called EUL_US_TEMP and install an empty EUL as a Private EUL, not Public. Then you grant APPLEX permission to be an administrator of this new EUL. Next you log in as APPLEX in the new EUL and import the EUL you exported earlier, this time also taking ownership of all workbooks only if the original owner cannot be found.You'll find that APPLEX has access to ALL workbooks not just those originally owned by JOHNDOE so next you have to work out which ones were originally owned by JOHNDOE. You can do this in SQL by examining the file called EUL5_DOCUMENTS in the original EUL and look for all documents owned by JOHNDOE. Now that you know the names of the documents you log back into the new EUL as APPLEX and export only the workbooks you want to a separate export file. With that done you can log in as APPLEX into the original EUL and import that file this time always taking ownership. Finally you can drop the EUL_US_TEMP schema.
    Hope this helps

  • How do I move imove content from one user to another on the same computer?

    We bought our Macbook pro about six months ago. We made the mistake of creating two users for it (my husband and myslef) but bow we only log in under my user name. The problem is we originally imported all of our video camera content to his "log in" and now it is in his imovie folder, and not mine. I want to make a movie on my log in with the fottage that we imported to his. So, how do I get video content from one users login on the SAME computer to the other log in users? I cannot seem to move it for the life of me. I did not expect this to be so difficult.

    Hi,
    You need to log into his account and look, under the Movies folder, for iMovie Events. Inside, you'll find folders with the events names and still further will be the movie itself. Copy each to an external media or use the Shared folder so both accounts can reference them.
    Another option would be to attach an external HD and via iMovie (Events Library pane) move them to the new disk. You would preserve the thumbnails and analysis already performed on the videos.
    Good luck!
