How do I set up file sharing to keep my Quicken and Aperture files accessible and in synch across my network?

I have a gigabyte ethernet network connecting my home and workshop. I have an iMac (mid-2009 and late-2012) at each location running Mountain Lion and Windows 7 Home Premium under Parallels 8. I want to be able to access my Quicken (for Windows), Office (for Mac) and photo (Aperture and iPhoto for Mac) files from either location and keep the files in synch. How do I set up File Sharing to accomplish this and what process should I use when updating and saving changes?

Use SugarSync.

File Sharing Service keeps crashing Error Reading Settings, File Sharing Service keeps crashing Error Reading Settings

File sharing service keeps popping up with the error message An error occurred on the server while processing a command. This error occurred while processing a command of type 'getConnectedUsers' in plug-in 'servermgr_afp'.
I have tried multiple solutions on this site, unloading afp and restarting it, restarting postgres. The file sharing tab will show up for a few seconds on the server.app config page then once someone tries to access any of the shared volumes on there, the event log shows it crashing instantly. Error in console:
The server '127.0.0.1' reported an error while processing a command of type 'getConnectedUsers' in plug-in: 'servermgr_afp'. Error: Error Domain=XSActionErrorDomain Code=0 "SETTING_NOT_FOUND_ERR" UserInfo=0x7ffe6a835060 {NSLocalizedDescription=SETTING_NOT_FOUND_ERR}
Also I get the error com.apple.launchd: (com.apple.collabd.notifications[7520]) Exited with code 1 then always followed by Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds and this happens every 10 seconds without fail.

I have started getting this error this morning:
This error occurred while processing a command of type 'getConnectedUsers' in plug-in 'servermgr_afp'.
Using Server 2.2.2; MacMini running OS X 10.8.5, 2 GHz Core i7 with 8 GB RAM attached to a 12TB Pegasus RAID.
When the error appears, my users cease to be able to access file shares.
Often, just before the error occurs, my users experience substantial slow down in the Finder's responsiveness when manipulating files on those shares.
Restarting the Server App will produce one of several results
1. fix the problem (rarely)
2. fail to connect to server
3. connect to server but not get all services running.
The system itself resists a full shutdown, hanging at the grayish-white screen (not spinning wheel or cog or apple logo).
I wish there was some known fix for this.

How do I set up two profiles on my computer but still utilize all programs and files?

How do I set up two profiles on my computer but still utilize all programs and files? I want to set up two profiles so my wife and I can utilize two iTunes accounts and different internet settings, but when I set up an administrator profile for her and log in. I don't see all of the stuff that is on the administrator profile (mine) that was created first

A second user account is separate; with separate preferences and data, but can share the same apps as long as they're in the top-level Applications folder, not an Applications folder inside another user's home folder.
Sharing files is a bit different; you can put them in the special Shared user folder, or grant permission to specific files/folders in one account to a different user.

How do I set-up a Shared Folder to automatically grant read

In OS 10.6.8, how do I set-up a Shared folder to automatically grant read & write access to all new MS Office files? Older files are fine. But, when new files are created and saved by one registered user, those files are "read-only" when opened by a different registered user, even though the permissions that are on the "Shared Folder" are read and write for each of the registered user groups. Can't this be changed somehow? The computer is used by two different work groups and some of the WORD or PPTX files are shared by both both work groups and are in the /users/shared folder when one of the user groups creates a new file and saves it to the Shared folder, it can't be edited unless saved with a different name. I need to be able to fix this. I assume it's an Office problem. If I can fix using terminal commands, please be detailed.
Thank you.

For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
What you mean by 'share'.
If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?

I want to set up family sharing but it won't let me because all the emails are already associated with the one iTunes account we have. I am afraid to delete because my children use that email address for text messaging. How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?

Hey Wendaroski,
I am not quite sure what you mean by "my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account" but what you need for each family member is an Apple ID. Yours would be the one for your iTunes account.
If the other members of the family already have an Apple ID you can invite them to join the family group. If not they will need to create one, using their email address. This article shows how -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Be well,

How do i set it to fit to screen to print the entire file?

How do i set it to fit to screen to print the entire file? I have a file that is smaller than 8.5x11 but it says it's larger and clipping will occur and when I print it, it does not fit the paper. Ive even clicked the box that says Scale to Fit Paper Size and it's still giving me that message and cutting info off.
I also need to be able to size it by percentage so I can adjust it to fit into a pre made form Im working with.

First, I am new to this forum and I was told by Adobe that I would get help from Adobe as well as other users here, so that's why I posted. But nobody asked me for basic info about image dimensions and printing sizes. I never claimed to be an expert, just a basic user of PS, which is why Im asking for help. I've used this program for my basic needs which is probably 1/1000th of what PS is capable of, but it's what I've used and I've always had success doing what I needed to do with it. If you can help, I very much appreciate it but if you just want to slam me and say you don't believe what I say, then that's not really helpful. Since nobody else responded to this post with any offers for help, the info you seek is below. If you have any thoughts on how to help, I greatly appreciate it.
Im not sure how the image dimensions apply to my question at all but here they are: 3300x2550 with a 300 dpi resolution.
Im simply trying to get the program to allow me to fit the image to the paper Im printing and adjust it as necessary to make it fit a partially pre-printed form I need for work and in every PS version I've used that I can recall, it allowed that. It certainly allowed it, using the same printers Im using now, in CS5.
Also, you mentioned that the printer driver handles this but I can do this in every other program I have on this computer with the same printers, from Numbers (it's a Mac) to Preview to Mac Mail so why wouldn't it do the same thing in PS? That's what Im trying to find out here and with most software, I can pick up a phone or get on a one-on-one chat and get help, but apparently not with PS and since it's not a cheap program, I expected more. I never needed to call for help before using this new version, so that's something I need to consider.
Again, if you are able to help, I appreciate it. Thanks!

How can I set up my iTunes so I can listen to it at work and at home - same library.

How can I set up my iTunes so I can listen to it at work and at home - same library.

Put a copy of the whole library on a flash drive.
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the library.
I don't know if there is a Windows equivalent of the below:
Slink ($25) - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/slink/id402358338?mt=12 - "Slink is the easy way to remotely access your home network. Listen to your iTunes music and watch your movies from anywhere, get the files from your home Mac or Time Capsule that you forgot to bring with you on the road, or help your parents or kids out using remote screen sharing.

How do I set my Ricoh Aficio SP C220N to Default to print only Black and White?

HI Guys can you help?
How do I set my Ricoh Aficio SP C220N to Default to print only Black and White? When I check print Grey Scale box it uses the other colours to create the black instead of using the black toner cartridge. doing this from a PC works fine but not of a Mac and I am a newbie at this can you help as I don't want to waste any more colour ink unnecessarily.

Hi,
Follow the steps below to print using Black Ink only:
1. From the application used to print, click the File menu and select Print. The Print window appears.
NOTE: The Print window might be minimized: Click the Show Details button to see all available settings.
2. To access the color options, click the lowest selection box listed as the name of the program (e.g. TextEdit)
Will appear as Copies & Pages within Microsoft Office applications.
3. Select Paper Type/Quality from the drop-down menu.
4. Click the triangle next to Color Options to expend the settings.
5. Set the Color field as Grayscale.
6. Set the Grayscale Mode as Black Ink Cartridge Only.
You may save the settings for future use by clicking Presets > Save Current Settings as Preset...
Any used preset will remain default so simply select teh standard preset to print in color.

There is no time limit in Firefox 4+ versions for the history.<br />
Firefox determines automatically how many pages can be kept without affecting the performance.<br />
You can see the current value via the reads-only pref places.history.expiration.transient_max_pages on the about:config page.
See:
* http://blog.bonardo.net/2010/01/20/places-got-async-expiration
If you lose the history then make sure that you do not use Clear Recent History to clear the browsing history.<br />
Also make sure that you do not have cleanup software that might clean up files in the Firefox Profile Folder.

On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla

On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; GTB6.5; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Thanks for the suggestion.
A few weeks ago I downloaded some free software from the "tucows.com" website, it appears to have permanently hijacked my web browsers (both firefox and IE) so all searches go to their "searchqu" site, and new tabs open at that site. I was unable to repair this with the addins you suggested or by editing my user preferences files, and ended up having to reinstall firefox. Hopefully I won't run into the tucows rootkit ;)
But thanks anyway.

I am using itunes 10 and trying to consolidate my files. I keep getting the error "Copying files failed. The file name was invalid or too long". How can I indentify what file is causing this problem or resolve this issue?

I am using itunes 10 and trying to consolidate my files. I keep getting the error "Copying files failed. The file name was invalid or too long". How can I indentify what file is causing this problem or resolve this issue?

BUMP
Yes, I just get that message. I don't see how I could investigate this problem.
I didn't mention that this happened when I was consolidating my library, not copying files to another computer.
In other words, I'm using a "normal" itunes procedure, itunes won't complete it, and won't tell me exactly why or how to figure out how to fix it...
Is there at least some easy way to tell which files were successfully copied to my itunes music folder so I can work on moving the uncopied files?
Can anybody help me?
