How do I customize firefox for multiple users on the same device?

Sometimes my wife uses my computer to surf the web. I'd like to have it set up so she can have her bookmarks, etc. when she's using it and I can have mine when I'm using it. Is this possible? If so how do I do it?

hello arack, the easiest way would be to create different user accounts for you both on the mac on the level of the operating system: [[How do I share Firefox between people on a computer?]]
or you could use the firefox profile manager to create separate profiles: [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]

Find my Friends : Support for multiple users under the same Apple ID?

Can multiple users under the same Apple ID use the app to find each other? My daughter uses my Apple ID with her iPod touch which allows me to monitor her purchases but it seems that only one device under an ID can use the app at a time. If that is the case then it is a major disadvantage and I will need to go back to using latitude (or Find My iPhone which also allows me to see where all of my devices are at the same time)

Multiple users on the same device

Can I have 2 or more users on the same device? I want to use a Kindle Fire HD when traveling with separate accounts for my wife and myself.

You can; you just have to disable automatically signing one of you in (unless you want to constantly log the other one out)

Import PST files for multiple users at the same time?

While importing PST files into archive mailboxes, the Exchange 2010 mailbox server went to 100% CPU and memory usage and I could not stop the imports because the EMS stopped responding. We had to restart the whole server to get back to normal.
Not sure if importing PSTs was the cause of it it was a coincidence. We have done imports the same way before without this issue.
How many PST imports can be done at the same time and how do we queue up multiple users and have the mailbox imports have unique names for each user? I noticed they are always called MailboxImport and MailboxImport1 and then it starts over as MailboxImport
again for additional users. So, if more than one user's PSTs are being imported at the same time, we will have multiple identically named imports running.
We would like multiple users' PST imports to queue up and start automatically when the previous users' imports complete.

Please try like this. Rename folder name same as alias. i.e. \\server\share\<alias>. below are examples.
"\\server\share\jsmith"
"\\server\share\tjones"
"\\server\share\rsmith"
"\\server\share\bspears"
"\\server\share\mmouse"
And run below command to take PST from the corresponding
foreach ($i in (Get-Mailbox)) { New-MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox $i -FilePath "\\Server\share\$($i.Alias)\$($i.Alias).pst" -baditemlimit 50 -acceptlargedataloss ;while ((Get-MailboxImportRequest -mailbox $i | ? {$_.Status -eq "Queued" -or $_.Status -eq "InProgress"})) { sleep 180 } }
If a folder missing with the alias you will see an error similar to this.I think this will work for you. You just keep only the required PST folders to import in the "\\Server\share" folder.
"Unable to open PST file '\\server\share\mmouse\mmouse.pst'.
Error details: Could
not find a part of the path '\\server\share\mmouse\mmouse.pst'.
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (0:Int32) [New-MailboxImportRequest], RemotePermanentException

Outlook autocomplete cache stops working for multiple users at the same time

Hi there
Ever since we upgraded our Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 we have had problems with the autocomplete cache in Outlook 2010.
We have 700 users and about once per week I get a call about the autocomplete cache. A few users are on cached mode, but most use online mode. The problem appears on both, but it can usually be corrected by /cleanautocompletecache.
Granted, the autocomplete cache gets corrupted sometimes, but it seems to happen a lot for us. I have noticed that often more than one user experiences the problem at the same time, and, since the problem starting after upgrading Exchange, I suspect that
the issue is with Exchange and not Outlook. Yesterday three users complained about the cache at the same time.
I know how to get a broken cache going again - that is not the issue. The issue is keeping this from happening so often.
Anyone out there able to help?
Thanks!
/Anders

Hi ,
Based on my knowledge , when you tried to send an email to a recipient in the same exchange organisation then the recipient address will be resolved in to legacy dn value and then that email will be delivered to destination mailbox by pointing towards to
that legacy dn value.
For the external recipients exchange user the smtp address to get it delivered.
For your issue :
Based upon the NDR message , we need to covert those values in to x500 format and add it to respective recipient mailbox as an x500 address.Then These erorrs will happen if the x500 value of the destination recipient is not available on it's maibox
and that would be the cause of the NDR for most of the times.Some time as you said autocomplete cache would get corrupted on the client end but it is very rare.
How to convert NDR to x500 address format :
http://msexchangeguru.com/2012/03/15/x500/
How to avoid getting such kind of NDR'S :
https://www.simple-talk.com/sysadmin/exchange/exchange-e-mail-addresses-and-the-outlook-address-cache/
In case if you don't want the users to use the autocomplete cache when composing the new emails :
In group policy we can use the office templates to disable the below mentioned option.
1.use autocomplete to suggest the names ---> this option will comes under the advanced settings on the outlook client.
In case if you don't want the users to use the autocomplete cache when composing the new emails as well as if you wanted to delete that autocomplete then you need to choose one more option along with the first one.
1.Empty autocomplete cache.
Please reply me if anyhitng is unclear.

Can I use FCX for multiple users on the same machine?

I have one mac pro, and two video cmpanies. I have two users on my machine and would like to set up two different final cut x workplatforms. Is that possible?

Of course, you can use FCP X from two different user accounts on your machine. The question here, I believe, is how to separate the content that each user accesses.
One obvious way to achieve that would be to store the content in the system disk - that would put events and projects in each user's Movies folder. But that is a bad option, for performance reasons, and more.
You could have separate external disks for each user to store his content.
Also, you could use different disk images which could, say, be all stored in the same internal (but not system) drive.

How to create send connectors for multiple sites in the same domain?

Current Scenario:
We have 2 offices, 1 in London and 1 in India. Both are in the same domain and are connected via VPN. Both have their own separate Exchange 2003 server. Each location sends out their mail via the Default SMTP Virtual Server on their exchange server through
their local ISP. There are no Send connectors created currently.
We have now installed an additional Exchange 2010 server with Hub, CAS and Mailbox roles at the London site. Internal mail flow between the sites seems to be working fine.
I believe the Exchange 2010 needs a Send connector to send out mail to the internet. However as soon as we create a Send connector on Exchange 2010, mail from the older 2003 servers at both sites start to flow out from the exchange 2010 server. This is not
optimal for our India site since their outgoing mail now has to flow via the VPN to London and out via the new server.
How can we configure it so that each server sends outgoing mail independently?
Thanks

Hi,
In India site, you can create a SMTP connector which point to the local ISP.
Thanks.

ITunes access for multiple users on the same Apple

I think I'm really done myself in for the fist time with my iMac. I have decided instead of sharing a single log-in with my girlfriend, to get her her own. This is working out great, but I'm come to a halt in trying to get her access to our music on iTunes. I read the article on the Apple Support website that clearly explains how to do this, I also read Kay and Bert's message thread which I thought would be of help to no avail.
I've copied my iTunes folder into user/shared then opened iTunes/preferences and connected iTunes the path to the new location. Done... but I can't see any of my music!! ... and I can't even see the music under my log-in. However, I can clearly see the files there in the user/shared folder. I'm starting to feel those "windows" days before I found Apple. Please help!

How do I install Firefox on multiple computers at the same time?

I work part-time at a school and want to know if there's an efficient way to install Firefox on all the computers in the computer lab, all of which run Windows XP. I also want to change the preferences from the default settings to a custom one for all of the profiles. Is there a way this can be done?

Single Outlook mailbox for multiple users on the same PC

please now see below.
Thanks

Guys, I think I may have figured a very simple work around, which at first glance appears to be working.
And I can't believe that i'm the only person in the world done this ???
1. Configure email account/s as normal.
2. Create a folder in the root of C and name it some thing obvious like "Outlook-Share", and give all PC users full access.
3. Rename outlooks "Personal Folder", something obvious like "Shared Email", then move the PST file to the "Outlook-Share" folder.
4. Open outlook and when it moans about not being able to find the .pst, navigate to "Outlook-Share"
Close Outlook.
5. Using Office Tools "Save my settings wizzard", save the office settings to the "Outlook-Share" folder.
6. Log in as the new user, and use the "Save my settings wizzard" to restore office settings to this user profile.
This PC is not yet on the internet, as I'm on a development domain, but i created a mail in User1 profile which is sitting in the outbox waiting to go.
I then logged in as User2, and could see the mail waiting in the outbox. I created another email and sent this to the outbox.
Logged in as User2 and can now see 2 emails in the outbox.

HT1660 how can I use one single library for all users on the same laptop?

how can I use one single library for all users on the same laptop?

You are most of the way there. Each user having access to hard drive is the key. If users are limited in file privileges this is harder.
Any files you add to your library and any files she adds to her library are available to the other. Just not automatically. Each user must add the files to their own library using the add file or add folder option from menu bar.
What I have done is set library location to a location outside of My Documents\My Music. On my network storage I have a folder names s:\itunes. Both accounts iTunes are set to use this location for the library.

There are multiple users with the same display name

Hi,
We have a user and when she get an item assigned to her she sees the following alert:
"There are multiple users with the same display name USERNAME and at least one of them does not have read permissions to some of the files"
Now I looked in the database and when I run the following query with the username:
SELECT
[ProviderDisplayName]
,[DisplayName]
,[HasDisplayName]
,[Domain]
,[AccountName]
,[UniqueUserId]
,[LastSync]
FROM [Tfs_Configuration].[dbo].[tbl_Identity] where displayname like '%USERNAME%'
Then I get 2 same usernames back, How can I get rid of one of them ? When I access TFS trough the portal I only find 1 occurence of this user.
We use VS2013 and TFS2013 update 4
Best regards

Hi DSW,
Thanks for your post.
In your query result, please check if these two users have the same Account Name. if they are two different Account Name in result, it indicate there’s two users have the same display name in your AD, please check that two users’ information in
your AD. We suggest change one user’s display name in AD.

Multiple profiles/users on the same device

Hi there,
I know that iOS is a single user environment.
But, I am currently working in an enterprise environment and I was wondering if it was possible to have several profiles on the same device, maybe using certificates or so?
Thanks for your help
Cheers,
Pierre.

It would seem that unlike previous iOS devices the iPad and possibly AppleTV call for the ability to enable multiple profiles/users on the same device.
I would suggest that if this capability is not on the roadmap for iOS by now then there is a least one place where alternatives to the iPad will have a major advantage.
The thought they I would have to buy multiple iPads one for myself, my wife and my child because of a software constraint is untenable from a ecological standpoint (all these devices end up as landfill) let alone the economic one.
Also as I use the iPad I see it's potential to become as important computing platform to me as my laptop eventually surpassing it. In this light I can't see how it could remain just a personal device.
