How do I map Windows users accounts on a mac

I want to map the Windows network account for a user on a mac. When I map the individual folder I also get the server icon giving them access to all users files. How can I map just the one users folder and not the server icon?

I think the only way to do this would be to share the exact folder you want to be seen on the mac (not sure if this is possible on a win xp server).
However, you could just hide the server icon in the finder and in the sidebar. This is done by clicking on Finder --> Preferences in the menu bar. Deselect "connected servers" in the general tab and the sidebar tab. Please note that this will hide all connected servers, so this may cause problems. The server icon can still be seen if someone uses Go-->Computer in the finder.

    I need Toshiba password reset! How do I reset Toshiba laptop? I would be appreciated if you help me Toshiba password recovery, etc. Well, so frequently to meet these problems in our lives. Today, we together share some ways to reset Toshiba password.
    Solution1: Toshiba recovery disks help reset lost password
    It only works if we created the recovery disks or CD before we forgot the password. The following listed are the steps to reset disk for Toshiba Windows 7 recovery:
    a. Start PC, log on Windows 7 and insert an USB flash drive into the driver.
    b. Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts and Family Safety -> User Accounts -> Create a password reset disk.
    c. In welcome screen click Next and select the inserted USB flash drive, click Next.
    d. Input the login password in the password field and click Next. When progress indicator shows 100% complete, click Finish to exit. Remove the USB driver from PC.
    The method is similar to create a Toshiba recovery CD. Now, the Toshiba Windows 7 password recovery disk is ok. Put it in a safe place for people may use it to reset your password.
    Steps to recover password with created Toshiba password reset disk:
    e. Click Reset Password in the Windows 7 logon window,

    Solution2: Reset Toshiba laptop by accounts with administrator rights
    If there is default or built-in admin account or other accounts with administrator privileges and rights, we can use it for Toshiba password bypass. Take Toshiba XP recovery as example:
    A. Boot system from Safe Mode by pressing F8 when PC stars.
    B. Access PC with the available account with administrator rights and privileges.
    C. Start - Local Users and Groups lusrmgr.msc in the Search box ENTER - Local Users and Groups - choose Users.
    D. Right click the account with unlocked password, select Set Password and then input and confirm the new password.
    Solution3: Reset Toshiba password with burned ISO image file
    We can burn an .iso image file into a bootable USB disk or CD/DVD and reset the forgotten password easily and quickly. Take one of the most popular Windows password reset tool Ainorsoft Windows Password Recovery as example:
    a. Download the program from an accessible PC;
    b. Burn its .iso file to a blank CD/DVD or USB disk;
    c. Bypass the lost Toshiba password with the burned CD/DVD on the locked PC.
    Things will not be tricky if we know the methods for Toshiba password reset once we forgot Toshiba laptop password! Please also remember to share them with your friends!

    Thanks for sharing this but you are talking always about Toshiba passwordthis is wrong and I think this could be a little confusing this is a workaround for windows user account password.
    As far as I know there are no password set by Toshiba.
    The user can set the windows user account password if necessary so this workaround describes how to delete a Windows user account password which is common for all computers with preinstalled Windows OS.
    However, thanks for posting ;)

    Hi,
    It seems that you know the group policy “Log on as a service” can achieve your goal, so I would like to confirm what do you want to ask?
    If you do not know the path of the group policy “Log on as a service” in domain, you may expend Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security
    Settings\Local Policies\User Rights Assignment\Log on as a service in GPMC.

  • Which is better having many Window User Accounts for the same person, so to have many Firefoxes or have many Firefoxes under one Windows Account User?

    Right now I have around 6 Window User Accounts (just for me on one computer) because I did not know that I could put more then one Firefox per account. I have to leave the tabs up when I close Firefox because if I just bookmark them I wont finish my work I was doing with those sites. Now that I know how to put multiple Firefoxes under one user account. Which would make my computer fast or does it not matter, if I put all my Firefoxes on one Window user account or have 6 Window user accounts, each with their own Firefox?
    -Thanks

    It is more work to switch to another Windows account then to open another Firefox instance with another profile.
    If you only use the other windows accounts for using Firefox that way and not for other purposes then there is nothing against switching to only one Windows account to make it easier to manage things as backing up your personal data or copying your data between the other profiles.
    So it is up to you if you want to switch to only one Windows account.

  • Forms Authentication Error: User '' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed

    I created a custom security extension following the steps listed in the Readme_Security Extension Sample. It works fine if I login as the user that is specified AdminConfiguration section of the rsreportserver.config file but if I
    log in as another user, I get this error: User '' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.  I've added the user to both System Administrator
    and System User roles to try to get it to work but still no luck.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks.

    Hi MetronM,
    The issue is due to that user have no permission to access the report server. In report manager, Reporting Services includes predefined roles that we can assign to users and groups to provide immediate access to a report server. Each role defines a collection
    of related tasks.
    You can refer to the following steps to assign corresponding role to the user.
    Open report manager.
    Click “Folder Setting” button. 
    Click “New Role Assignment” icon.
    Type the user name and select the corresponding role.
    There is an article about Granting Permissions on a Native Mode Report Server, you can refer to it.

  • Sharing one "Email account" between two Windows "user account" in a "Global Inbox"

    Context: Two "windows user accounts" on a Windows XP PC, having the same email address. The "Local folder" is placed on a "All users" directory and acounts settings specify a POP server with a retention period of 30 days.
    Problem: When User B ask for reception of messages, he received all messages already read by user B. (this probably due to separate popstate.dat).
    On a previous PC two years ago, we do not had this dupplicate reading.
    If you have a solution, could you also cover the Windows 7 case.
    Regards
    Dto75

    I strongly suggest you get the whole profile in the same folder hierarchy before you even consider moving to windows 7.
    Windows XP has Program File
    Windows 7 has Program Files and Program Files (X86) your executable goes in the x86 one.
    XP has applications data
    Windows 7 has appdata
    In windows XP Thunderbird's profile is in application data in windows 7 it is in appdata/roaming
    If you open explorer the old locations appear to be there, but they will not work to locate Thunderbird's disparate parts of it's profile
    And so the list goes on. Hence none of the locations you know will probably exist under windows 7 so if parts of the profile are pointing to locations that have changed, only grief awaits you.

  • 2 Windows User Accounts, 2 iTunes Libraries

    I have iTunes set up on one of the user accounts, but when I logged into the other Windows user account and bought music, I could not sync it to my iPod.
    Is there any way to transfer those songs to the other library, or am I gonna have to shell out another 10 bucks for songs I already bought? Any help would be killer.

  • Is there a way to have two different iTunes for two different iPhones on one Windows User account?

    Using Windows 7, iphone 4.
    I've read as many threads on these forums and as many kb's as I could find, but I sttill can't figure it out. I have 2 iPhones. Let's call them, "wife" and "hubby". I want to have two separate iTunes, one for each of the phones. Hubby is the Windoows User. I don't want to set up a different Windows User for wife.
    Hubby was the original iPhone. When I plug it in, iTunes recognized it has Hubby's iPhone. Then I unplug Hubby and close iTunes. I plug in Wife but iTunes stll comes up with Hubby under Devices and syncs Hubby's iTunes to Wife's iphone.
    I've tried using the shift key when I open iTunes to set up two separate .itl files to no avail.
    Is there a way to have two different iTunes for two different iPhones on one Windows User account?
    Thanks!

    What happens if you rename the iPhone "Wife" when it shows up as "Hubby", then choose a different set of apps/playlists to sync with? iTunes is supposed to be able to manage multiple devices, each with their own selection of content. Perhaps you "restored" "Wife" with a backup from "Hubby" when you first set things up which is now causing confusion.
    To create a new library press and hold down the shift key as you click the icon to start iTunes and keep holding shift until asked to choose or create a library. You need to use the same technique to switch back.

  • How do I delete a user account to regain the space on my HD?

    How do I delete a user account I am not using to regain the space on the HD?

    System Preferences - Accounts - choose account in the left panel and click the "-" button to delete. You'll want to choose "Delete immediately" to save the space (the "Save in disk image" option will keep the files in an image in your Users folder, which saves you no space).
