How do I hide my mailbox and mail contents from other users, leaving other functions of my iMac accessible?

You don't have to shut down the computer to switch accounts. All you do is click the Apple symbol in the upper left and choose Log Out and that's it. You can also set up Faster User Switching by:
1. Open System Preferences - Accounts
2. Click Login Options
3. Check the box called "Show fast user switching menu as" then choose from either icon, short name or name.
Then when someone wants to switch users they can. The advantage of this method is if you are have a document open and don't want to close it the document will remain open. If the other user attempts to shut down the computer they can't until you have logged out thereby saving all your data.
A very simple and elegant solution.

  • HT1386 I copied my my iTunes music from an old computer to a Macbook Pro, but it did not copy the playlists on my nano. How can I transfer the playlists and their content from the nano to the Macbook

    I copied my iTunes music from an old computer to a new Macbook pro but it did not copy the playlists that are on my Nano. How can I copy the playlists and their content on the nano to the Macbook? If I automatically sync the nano from the Macbook, will it scrub the content and existing playlists on the nano?

    You need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:

  • How do I hide my email and ip address from a website?

    I am on a simple free fan oriented college sports team opt in website, and I keep getting booted because I posted a picture in the comments section - totally PG. The moderator is being a punk and keeps booting me after two days no matter what different or new email I register with. I am 100% minding my own business and not being disruptive and simply reading about this particular college team I follow and all the commentary other similar fans post. I did not use any foul language or post any inappropriate messages. The moderator still keeps removing me after two or three days no matter what I do or do not do. He is just simply being difficult. I tried emailing and communicating with him and he says he does not have time for me and deletes my registered user name and blocks my access. What can I do to make myself look like a new registrant and just read the free articles like any other user without incurring the ire of this whiny little webmaster?

  • How can i hide both Detach AND View menus from a panelCollection component?

    Hello,
    i was checking the internet for a solution, but i end up using featuresOff but
    its only can hide 1 feature than those 2.
    Anyone have a solution on this for hiding both objects?
    thanks in advance.
    JDeveloper ADF 11.1.2.4.0

    Hi,
    Check out the tag doc for the panelCollection.ADF RichClient API - <af:panelCollection>
    You need to use a space separated list of features in the featureOff property.
    For ex, in your case, you would use something like  <af:panelCollection id="pc1" featuresOff="viewMenu detach">

  • HT2486 How do I export a mailbox to address book from Mail

    How do I export a mailbox to address book from mail?

    Unless you are willing to continually do an export of one contacts database and import of the other, switching back and forth, you'll either need to use some third-party contacts application or maintain two separate user accounts in Mac OS X. The built-in Address Book/Contacts application does not allow multiple address books.
    Regards.

  • HT201342 Currently I have 'on my mac' mail boxes (in MAIL) and I have folders and mail boxes in iCloud.  How do I transport all the folders/mail boxes from 'on my mac' to iCloud?

    Currently I have 'on my mac' mail boxes (in MAIL) and I have folders and mail boxes in iCloud.  How do I transport all the folders/mail boxes from 'on my mac' to iCloud?

    Are the mailboxes you are talking about belonging to other email accounts? You can't get iCloud to receive mail from other email accounts. However if you have 'On My Mac' mailboxes which contain emails you can move these (or their contents) to iCloud easily enough. For each mailbox:
    1.Create a new mailbox with the same or a suitable name on iCloud.
    2. Open the mailbox you want to move.
    3. Hit command-a to select all the messages.
    4. Click and drag on any of the messages to move it to the new mailbox in the sidebar.
    5. If there are a lot of messages, take the dog for a walk because it's going to take quite a long time as they all have to be uploaded
    If you have a very large number of messages don't try to do them all at once.

  • How can I hide the password and user name in url???

    Hi experts,
    I'm creating a login page and know I have a problem.
    The Username and password are verified in a Java class, after checking the user and password, the user should be linked to the portal.
    So far everything has worked well.
    But when I call the lin like this
    res.sendRedirect ("/ irj / portal j_user =" + UserN + "& j_password =" + passw);
    then the user name and Pwasswort appears in the url.
    Can someone tell me how can I hide the password and user name???
    It will be very helpful.
    Thank you

    If there is no specific reason that you have to use sendredirect...thne you can try request.forward.....
    RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher("pathToResource");
      rd.forward(request, response);

  • How can I hide the borders and keep it as an option?

    How can I hide the borders and keep it as an option?  I had someone go into the css I believe, and make it so there were no borders visible on the page (I could see the dotted outline while working on it, but when pushed, it wasn't visible (which is what I wanted).  They called it "noborders."  Since I had to reinstall, it went away.  Help?
    I have Dreamweaver CS5.5

    Try this site:  CSS Border
    Add code then type in a zero. Later add border size you want.
    examples:  border: 0px solid black;
    or
    border: 1px 000000;
    or
         border-top-style: solid; 0px 000000;
         border-right-style: dotted; 0px 000000;
         border-bottom-style: solid; 2px 000000;
         border-left-style: dashed; 1px 000000;

    You should be able to copy iTunes purchases (which should include PDFs in the iBooks app even though they aren't purchases) off the iPad to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases.
    On Windows 7 your backup should be stored under :
    \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    But without restoring onto a device you probably won't be able to make much sense of the backup files.
    If you want to copy off photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer

  • Where are my mailboxes and mail?

    Last night I downloaded OS X 10.8.4 to my iMac and now all of my Mailboxes and mail from yesterday back are not visible.  Where can I find them?

    Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    { sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
    Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
    In the Terminal window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not  going to reset a password.
    Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
     ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • How can I move my Verizon e-mail accessed from my iPAD to folders?

    How can I move my Verizon e-mail accessed from my iPAD to folders?

    If your Verizon account is an IMAP account you can create folders on the iPad via the Edit button when you are in the account. If you see an edit button in the window where your inbox, draft folder, sent folder and trash folder appear in that account - tap on it and an Add Mailbox button will pop up at the bottom of the window. If there is no Edit button there - your account is not an IMAP account and you cannot create folders on the iPad in the mail app.

  • HT2486 HOw do I transfer contact numbers and email address from my Mac to my new iphone?

    How do I transfer contact numbers and email address from my Mac to my new iphone?

    Connect your iPhone 4S to your Mac using the iPhone’s USB cable, and then use iTunes to transfer your contacts from to the iPhone. (An alternate way is to use iCloud.)
    I’m not sure what you mean by “transferring email address” from the Mac to the iPhone. But if you mean you want to access your email from the Mac and the iPhone, the best way is to configure your email account over IMAP in Mail on both devices.
