How do I use an Iphoto as my user icon??

I would like to use a photo from Iphoto as my user icon. Does anyone know how to change the picture? I tried but i cant find an option to use a picture from Iphoto.

Where do you want to use the icon? Here in the forum? One must reach Level 3 before they can use custom icons. It's explained here: Apple Support Communities - Earn points, status levels and privileges

How I can use old iPhoto library?

Good day!
I've re-installed Lion on my Mac. Before that I had copied my iPhoto Library on external HD (copy&paste iPhoto Library folder).
When i've installed Lion - i copy my iPhoto Library to Pictures folder. But iPhoto don't work with it. I try to launch iPhoto with Alt-button and choose that library.
So, question is - how i can use my old library or it is impossible?
And if i cant - can i manually export my projects (books) to new iPhoto Library?
Dmtiriy

Hm...it is hard question
1. I see that folder not like iPhoto Library, but like common folder. So, i can open at and see files into it.
2. iPhoto see that library (when i open it with alt-button) - but then i have the messege - "Your library used by other application or broken" - sorry, i have russian version - and translate that message from russian.
I've tried to create new free library and copy files from old there - but have that messege too.

How do I share my iPhotos w/other Users on SAME computer?

I give up! I've looked at Help and everywhere. Tried (Share/)Exporting to other users but it doesn't seem to work. What am I not doing? Help!
THANKS.

Hi sherman,
Here are all the links I have for sharing your iPhoto Library.
SHARING IPHOTO LIBRARIES
Sharing libraries between users on the same local network
You can also share a library on the same machine between users the same way.
Sharing libraries between users on the same machine...
-both users must have sharing enabled in their iPhoto Preferences
-both users must be logged in and have iPhoto running
-Remember that you can only view the other library. You can't edit the photos or play the saved slideshows or view the made books or burn them to CD or DVD. The books and slideshows will show up as an album. You can play that album as an "on the fly" slideshow. You can drag images from the sharing library to your library in the source column to import them to your library. You can then edit, add to albums, books, slideshow, etc.

SHARING ONE IPHOTO LIBRARY BETWEEN USERS ON SAME MACHINE
You can try one of these three methods:
1- Use iPhoto Library Manager-the paid version
The documentation page will give instructions on how it is done.
2- Sharing one iPhoto library between several users on one machine
3- Share an iPhoto Library in tiger Using ACL's
4- I have also read about ShareAlike
There is no other info on the site about how it works.
I strongly urge anyone wanting to try any of the methods for sharing one iPhoto Library folder among more than one user to backup all iPhoto Library folders before attemptin anything.
if you need more help with one of the methods, post back and tell me exactly what you tried (all the steps) and what happens or doesn't happen when you try to share your library.

How do I use JSP to track online user

Hi,
I am using JPSs to build a website,and I want these JSPs to detect and display how many users are active browsing on my website and their usernames.I know I can use session to track cocurrent users online,but I had to use some external class to do that,so my Q is that is there pure JSP solution for this without use bean or call other class?
Thanks!
John

Okay,
I am fairly new to the whole JSP thing, but I
I understand what you are saying by putting the login
names into a vector. What I don't understand is how
you would set up the vector. I know this isnt going
to be syntactically correct but for example - :
In my file Logon.jsp lets say I have the following
code:
Vector v = new Vector();
String LoginName = session.getValue("login");
v.add(LoginName);
Now the problem I see with this code is that
t everytime someone logs in, Vector v is going to be
reset to a new empty vector and instead of adding to
an already existing vector, this code would just only
be able to hold at most, one login name. Where would
I declare my vector and how do I prevent it from being
wiped out? I am new to this, so please dont bash me
too hard.
EdThis is why you would want to use an external class.
Write a class which has the vector as an instance variable.
The class should have a method to add to the vector
when someone logs in and remove them when they log out.
Use the <jsp:useBean ... scope='application'> tag in your JSP.
This will make the class available to all JSPs in the application.
The first time your class is called it is instantiated.
After the first call it is read from the application object and
is not re-instantiated. You can call your add/remove methods from
a scriptlet in the JSP.

How do I use one iPhoto library on multiple computers?

I have a laptop and my wife has a laptop...how do we share one commone iPhoto library? How would that work with syncing our iPhones?
I'm thinking we should get a shared network drive at home...but then our photos would not be available when we're not home - right?

The only way to do what you want is to put the Library on a USB/Thunderbolt disk and plug it into each Mac as required.
I'm thinking we should get a shared network drive at home
You can't put iPhoto on an Network location.

How do I use an iPhoto library stored on an external HDD (time capsule) on the new photos app?

I have recently upgraded to a MacBook Air with the latest 10.10.3 updates as such it has photos installed, not iPhoto. The MacBook I'm upgrading from still had 10.9 and as such had iPhoto app.
The MacBook air has a smaller SSD (128GB) than the HDD from my 2008 MacBook, and isn't big enough to store my iPhoto library (over 150GB). I want to just keep my library on the external HDD (which is an Apple Time Capsule).
When I follow the steps on Designate a System Photo Library in Photos - Apple Support it seems to want to import all the photos, it took hours to get to just 3% of importing so I left over night. In the morning it said my MacBooks storage isn't big enough, which of course it isn't - I didn't want to import the library on my new MacBook Air !
I just want to change the location that photos looks for the library every time it opens, I don't actually want it to import the whole library which it appears to have tried to do. thanks!

Thanks for getting back to me!
It is connected over wireless. I don't have an RJ45 connection on the MacBook Air (although will purchase an adapter if needed). Even if I do have an RJ45 connection does this mean I can only ever use wired to view my external photo library?
I suppose having the wired connection will give me the time to organise my photos and delete some of the rubbish (which I would have liked to do on my old MacBook first but it was running too slow, especially with such a big photo library - so I treated myself to a new MacBook Air so I did!).
And I guess I could then put my favourite photos on the MacBook Air and have a separate library of older/lesser used photos on the Time Capsule and just access those as and when over RJ45 network cable. I prefer to use wireless as much as possible as the Time Capsule is normally stored in a room I don't use the MacBook or other wireless devices !

How do I use/copy iPhoto library from my MBP to iMac?

I purchased a new 3TB iMac and wanted to use my existing ~128GB iPhotoLibrary from my MBP. I tried to AirDrop the library, but, after 12 hours or so, it was downloaded as a "package" kind file instead of a "photoLibrary".
For now, I have both machines in the sharing mode and "switched" the iPhoto library on my iMac to use the MBP one.
Any help is appreciated.
-- Regards,

The iPhoto Library is a package since iPhoto 7 (08). Did you try to open the packaged library after the transfer was done?
A safer way to copy the library to your iMac is to connedt the two with a LAN or in Target Disk Mode, Transferring files between two computers using FireWire, and manually drag the library from the MBP to the iMac. If you new iMac doesn't have a FW port you might need a Thunderbold to FW adaptor to do the Target Disk Mode.
Another way would be to use an external HD or large enough flash drive to copy.

How can I use Microsoft Office on two user accounts on one IMAc?

Dear all,
I have installed Microsoft Office 2011 on my IMac which I have recently bought. I did this on the (at that time) only user account in place: the administrator account.
A little time after this my wife and I decided it would be much easier to us to make an additional user account on the same computer for my wife (also with administrator rights), so we could have our own settings, desktop preferences etc. So now we have two user accounts/profiles on one Imac, so far so good.
But when my wife signs in on her account, she is not able to use Microsoft Office . Office seems to be only available to the user account on which it has been installed initially: 'my' account.
Can anyone help us out here and tell us how we can make Office available to my wife's user account as well? I understand that the licence of Office is restricted to one computer, but what about two accounts on the same IMac? I mean, it is still one computer, one 'home', one family etc.
We would appreciate your help here!
Kind regards,
Jurjen

As long as you installed MS Office into its default location (the top level /Applications folder) it will be available to all user accounts on the Mac.
As far as licensing is concerned you only have to enter the license code once, which you should do right after installing MS Office, in the same admin account you installed it from, by opening any one of the MS Office applications. There is no additional licensing required for additional user accounts on the same Mac.
Each user account is able to run the Office apps. The only thing you will have to do is go through an initial setup screen in each user account (but this setup does NOT involve entering any additional license codes).
You may have problems if you installed MS Office in a particular user account (i.e. NOT in the top level /Applications folder).

How can I use apps downloaded by different users on the same iPad?

I have a 'work' iPad so the apps on it have been downloaded using two different accounts. Which was fine until I did an update at the weekend and suddenly I can only use the one's I downloaded. Is there anyway of 'sharing' these apps so who logs in can use all the apps?

No, I don't think there is. As far as I know the iPad is meant to be a 'one per Apple ID' device...and isn't really meant to have multiple Apple ID's downloading apps to a singular device.
I think the simplest way around your issue is to use only one Apple ID to download everything.

How do I use a font that a user of my screen saver might not have?

I am trying to do a little experiment with fonts. I downloaded a font that was not previously installed on my computer, and am trying to make a "Hello, World!" screen saver with that font(which I installed).
The problem is that I can not even use that font. When I attempt to make a "Hello, World!" screen saver with that font, it uses the default font. Here's the code:
#import "saverView.h"
@implementation saverView
- (id)initWithFrame:(NSRect)frame isPreview:(BOOL)isPreview
self = [super initWithFrame:frame isPreview:isPreview];
if (self) {
[self setAnimationTimeInterval:1/30.0];
//either my mistake is here:
hylianFont = [NSFont fontWithName:@"Ancient Hylian - English" size:20];
attrs = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithCapacity:2];
//NSForegroundColorAttributeName -- [Color green]
[attrs setValue:[NSColor greenColor] forKey: NSForegroundColorAttributeName];
// or it is here:
[attrs setValue:hylianFont forKey: NSFontAttributeName];
displayer = [[NSAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"Hello, World!" attributes:attrs];
return self;
//... more stuff I do not use...
//simply draws "Hello, World!" in green at the top right of the screen.
//meant to draw it in the different font, but draws it in the standard font.
- (void)animateOneFrame
[displayer drawInRect:[self bounds]];
return;
@end
Where did I mistype?

I think I solved the problem. I just put the font and the screen saver in a pkg file, and make the pkg file install the font. Or I guess I could keep the font in my screen saver and test it that way. Either way, I found the answer.

HT4889 How can I use all files from every user on my mac?

Is there a way I can share all of the files on my computer to where every user on one computer can access files from one user to another? All help is appreicated!

That is so contrary to the way of OS X that I seriously doubt it.
I would suggest that you just create a single user account and let everyone log into that single account.

Can I use an IPHOTO as part of my signature?

How can I use an Iphoto picture as part of my signature in my emails?

Open "Mail > Preferences > Signatures" and select the signature you want to modify.
Drag a (small) photo from the iPhoto window into your signature.
Your photo will appear in the mail, if you select this signature when sending a mail.
I tried that only in Mavericks - no idea, if that will work in earlier MacOS X versions.
