How To Play Game On Multiple User Screens?

My son has a game called Age of Mythology that we recently installed on my iMac. He has been playing it for a few days on his own user screen. Today my other son wanted to play it on his user screen, but he got a message that said:
Cannot create log file. Must make sure that you have full file rights on the directory you installed Age of Mythology into, and that you have available disc space.
So I went back to my first son's screen name, because I knew it had been working for him. I clicked on the icon and then Get Info. At the bottom of the window that popped up there is an area that says Ownership & Permissions. I goofed around with these settings a little. I had to click on a padlock and enter my name and password as the administrator and when I got through changing some of the settings it asked if I really wanted to do this because it couldn't be undone. I clicked yes (which maybe I shouldn't have done), and now the game only plays for my first son on his user screen. It won't even play on mine and I'm the administrator!
Is there a way to get this game to play on everyone's screen names so there won't be arguments later about who is using who's screen?
One more thing: I installed the game while on my screen and I installed it in Applications.
Thanks for any help...

To do this you need to log on to the screen where you have permissions. Then navigate in Finder to the Age of Mythology app cmd+click, choose get info. scroll down to read write permissions and instead of your son's name choose system. Close the get info window and log in to another user (i.e. your other son's and open up the game to play and it should then play. This works on all types of files (text, video, audio..).
Happy Gaming,

How can i set up multiple user accounts for my new ipad mini?

The iPad mini is basically a one user device. There are no Accounts. You can set up restrictions so that only you can do certain things.

Create separate user accounts for each use. Use Accounts preferences or Users & Groups preferences depending on which version of OS X you are using.

How to play games by myself in Game Center?

Can anyone help me in figuring out how to play games in the Game Center on my daughter's ipod touch? She got the 5th generation Ipod touch and when she goes to play games in the Game Center, it asks her to pick someone to play with. How can she play the games in the Game Center by herself? I like how the Ipod touch 4th generation is set-up for this feature, instead of having to go to the Game Center to play certain games. Thank you :-)

It depends upon the game. Some games require another player but many do not.

Thanks and Regards Jenkins

finally I got a solution
Identified a workaround to solve the issue using SharePoint designer.
Step 1
Create a lookup list Example department
Columns
Title (by default) – Single line of text
Users – Person or Group
Emails – Multiple lines of text
hidden the Emails column (go to content type and set the column as hidden)
Create a SharePoint designer Workflow
Start Workflow automatically when an item is created
Also Start Workflow automatically when an item is changed
Workflow Stage 1
Set Emails to current Item: Users
The workflow will get all users email ids and add in the Emails column delimiter as semicolon.
Step 2
Create a custom list to get the email ids and send email
Create a lookup column ex: analysis and refer department list, Allow multiple values
Then Create a SharePoint designer workflow

How do I set up multiple users on my Imac?

I want to set up different accounts for myself, wife, and daughter since we use such different software routinely. How can I set multiple users up? How can I secure the computer so they can't download anything harmful or "mess up" the computer? Will a screen pop up before Mac OS Leopard starts, similar to Windows? If not, how?

Since you're a newcomer to the Mac, once you sort out the accounts issue, review these:
Switching from Windows to Mac OS X,

MacFixIt Tutorials, and
MacTips Learning Centre.

How Can I Login To Multiple User Accounts Simultaneously

I am using an Intel iMac (2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo) with 1GB of memory and 10.4.11. I have Fast User Switching enabled. I restart the Mac every morning. Then I login to a second user account. While at work, I access these accounts via VNC.
Sometimes I forget to login to the second user account. I do it from work via VNC, which sometimes causes complications.
Does OSX support simultaneous multiple user account login? If not, is there a work-around solution such as an AppleScript? This would provide a time savings to me, as well as a convenience if I forgot to login to the second user account before leaving home.
Thank you.
Kurt R. Todoroff

Seems to me, in another discussion, the simple Fast User Switching does not
do much really fast or automatically; there are a few faster steps than having
to log into each and every account change (even when FUS is enabled) so
this later development sounds a little more automatic, esp over a distance.
Is there a third party app or valid script that an do the multiple logins automatic
after the first-run; so passwords need not be re-entered, and the screen can just
switch over "fast" to another open account window, ready to go to work in there?
{And not just a keyboard shortcut to save a few little steps, overall.}
Whichever way the road turns...
Good luck & happy computing!

HERE'S HOW TO SHARE iCAL w/ MULTIPLE USERS on 1 Mac

Here's how to share iCal calendars among multiple users on a single Mac.
What you need to do is to move the iCal folder to a shared folder that is accessible to all users and then replace the iCal folder in each user's library folder with a "symbolic link' to the shared iCal folder. The symbolic link looks like an "alias", but if you try this using "aliases" to the shared iCal folder it will not work (trust me). You can create symbolic links using the Terminal, but I have no idea how, and the idea of using the Terminal scares me. The easiest way that I know of to create a symbolic link is with a shareware application called Cocktail. It allows you to do a number of different things including System Maintenance, Network Optimization, etc. It took me a while to remember how to do this; I originally found the information in the Discussions when iCal was first released, but apparently none of those original postings are listed in the forums anymore.
Here's how to do it (you must have Administrator privileges):
First locate your iCal folder (your user name > Library > Application Support > iCal) and make a copy of it (Finder > File > Duplicate). Drag the copy to your Desktop until you're sure iCal is being shared between users.
Next move the original iCal folder into a Shared folder in the Users folder (Hard Disk > Users > Shared > iCal). To make sure all users can access the information, select the Shared folder, choose File > Get Info, click the little Lock icon, then under "Ownership & Permissions -> Details" make sure that the "Owner" is "System", "Group" is "Wheel" and "Access" for Owner, Group and Others is "Read & Write". Do the same with the iCal folder within the Shared folder, but this time, under "Ownership & Permissions -> Details" make sure that the "Owner" is "your user name", "Group" is "Staff" and "Access" for Owner, Group and Others is "Read & Write" and click the "Apply to Enclosed Items" button. I basing this information on what the Ownership & Permissions are for each of the folders in my system.
Open Cocktail (I'm using version 3.6.5). Once the app is open (you must enter an administrator's user name and password) click on the "Files" button, then click on the "Links" button. Where it says "Create Symbolic Link" click on the "Choose" button. Navigate to the iCal folder (Hard Disk > Users > Shared > iCal) and click "Choose" again. In the "Save As" box that appears enter "iCal", then navigate to the Application Support folder in your Home folder (your user name > Library > Application Support) and click "Save". Quit Cocktail and open iCal. You should see all of your calendars as you did before.
Log in under each additional User, move that User's iCal folder (user name > Library > Application Support > iCal) onto the Desktop, then create another Symbolic Link to replace it, using Cocktail as described above. In each case you should see the same calendar information as when you were logged in under your user name. As a test, add a New Event or To Do in iCal under one user, log out and back in under another user and you should see the changes when you open iCal.
Once everything appears to be working, you can delete the iCal folders from each User's Desktop.
As an additional maintenance measure, use Disk Utility to repair Disk Permissions.
Unfortunately, if each User has his/her own calendars in iCal they will not be in the shared calendars. Only the calendars in the first iCal folder used to set up the shared folder will be available and I don't know of any way to merge or combine the other user's calendars into one.
Hope this helps and good luck!

If every user first exports their calendars (with unique names) and then the "First" user imports them, before all the other set up, everyone's calendar will be there.
Also, iCalShare lets you publish and subscribe on a computer or across a local network, without having to let everyone see and edit all your calendars.

How to restrict login for multiple users having same Role

Our Web Application is deployed on Tomcat 5.5
The requirement is ?
There are roles in application like "operator", "admin"?
There are multiple users created for each of the above role.
When one user of "operator" role is logged in, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, if user did not log out & application gets close, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, it should not allow to login for multiple requests of same user
(using another browser instance...)
Is it possible using session object?
But, using session object, it will create separate objects for different users,
So here I will not be able to restrict session object creation rolewise.
Also, how to retrieve these multiple session objects created for different users on server?
If anyone is having the solution please reply as soon as possible,
Thank you.

To tell you the truth, this is a stupid requirement. It must be an extremely fragile application.
In any case, you will have to write your stuff for that. Probably a filter that on login, logout, and session expiration checks, makes, or removes entries in a DB (using a synchronized resource to prevent race conditions) or possibly even simply in an application context object.

HT5517 How to play games on Apple TV

HOw do u play games on Apple TV using a iPad mini

Which iPad do you have? Mirroring requires iPad 2 (or later)
If your iPad is compatible then ensure airplay is enabled on ATV and that both devices are on the same network
Then double tap home button, swipe (left to right motion) to bring up volume/brightness controls and airplay. Tap airplay, select ATV and toggle ON mirroring
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5209?viewlocale=en_US

Home with multiple user/screen name Mac. ATV can only access the library of the person using the computer? Seems like a HUGH flaw??

We have a Mac that is set up to allow multiple users with their own log in and settings. (imagine a family of four). So if my wife sits down at the Mac to work. Then I can't access my iTunes library though the apple tv because my screen name and iTunes has to be shut down!! Seems like a huge oversight in the device?! Is there a way around this? Seems like it makes the apple TV nearly useless unless for a multiple person household.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You don't need to shut down your user account for your wife or anyone else to use their user account.
If it isn't already set, go to system preferences > Users & Groups > Login Options and check 'Show fast user switching'. Then from the top RH corner of the menu bar you can switch between users at will.
Keeping a user account logged in should enable its iTunes library on the Apple TV.
(Note, I've never tried this with non admin accounts)

How to assign Action to multiple Users dynamically in GP

Hello Experts,
I have the following scenario in GP
I have created a Web Dynro GP Callable Object and from my Web Dynpro i need to a pass a list of Users to which a particular Action needs to be assigned.
I am able to return a single value from web dynpro to gp.
Can some one help me how to return a list of users to gp.
I have done the following: In the getDescription method I have added an attribute of multiplicity 1_N:
IGPStructureInfo outputStruct = technicalDescription.getOutputStructureInfo();
IGPAttributeInfo list1 = outputStruct.addAttribute("List1", IGPAttributeInfo.BASE_STRING);
list1.setMultiplicity(IGPAttributeInfo.MULITIPLICITY_1_N);
then in the complete method I am trying to set an Arraylist to this variable:
IGPStructure output = execContext.getOutputStructure();
output.setAttributeValue("List1", userList);
Here userList is an Arraylist which contains the list of User Id's..
However I get the following exception:
com.sap.caf.eu.gp.exception.api.GPInvocationException: Multiplicity of attribute with name List1 and namespace null does not allow single values to be set/received
at com.sap.caf.eu.gp.structure.impl.GPStructure.setAttributeValue(GPStructure.java:114)
Can someone help me in knowing how I can return a list as an output parameter to GP from Web Dynpro...
Regards
Sundeep

Hi Srinivasan,
Of course the Role is Runtime defined...
I would brief you again the mapping that I have performed in the Design time at the processlevel.
From Web Dynpro I return a List of type String and Multiplicity 1..N.
I map this List with the leaf item User Identifier contained in the User List Input parameter of the Assign User to Process Role callable object.
However since the User Identifier parameter is of cardinality 0..1 only the first value in the returned list is getting assigned to it. Thus the task is getting assigned to only one user.
Now it is not possible in Design time to Group or consolidate parameters of different types. Thus the List which is of type String cannot be mapped to User List or the User_Item contained within it which are both of type Structure and multiple cardinality.
I even created a Structure in Web Dynpro of cardinality 1..N and withing it i included a List of type String and cardinality 1..N. Now I returned this Structure from Web Dynpro and tried to map it to the User Item Structure of the Assign User to Process Role Callable object, but doint this the task did not get assigned to any user..
One question:
Don't you think that in order for the task assignment to happen using the Assign User to Process Role Callable Object the leaf item User Identifier parameter contained in the User_List input parameter of this callable object needs to be populated with the required User Id's.
But if the cardinality of this parameter is always 0..1 , is it possible to achive the assignment of an Action to multiple Users at runtime using this Callable Object?
Can you please explain the parameter mapping you followed in order to achive this...
Regards
Sundeep

Popup that dispays ITAB on multiple users screens???

Hello all,
Is anyone aware of any standard SAP function modules that can create a popup that displays the contents of an internal table on multiple SAP users screens?
POPUP_WITH_TABLE_DISPLAY displays an internal table.
TH_POPUP sends a one line message to the specified users.
I'm looking for some standard SAP functionality that does both. I know that I could use SO_OBJECT_SEND to send a popup to multiple users, but this function module only pops up the title of the message. The user could skip reading the actual message.
I want to create a popup that has the entire contents of an internal table, generally 10 to 20 lines of 60 characters, and immediately display this popup on the specified users screens.
Thanks
Bruce

I know it's much more satisfying to handle issues here but, considering the scope of your issues and the newness of O2011, the Microsoft Mac forums may be the better resource. They have a number of decently qualified MS employees who know Macs, in addition to end users.
The Office for Mac forums are here:
http://www.officeformac.com/productforums/
I surf that site from time to time and it seems a high-functioning and useful resource.
