HT1750 How do i stop downloads from one Admin account from going onto the other one?

So there are two admin accounts on my imac, and one day i logged into the other persons account, and all my downloads were showing up in their folder, how do i seperate the two, so that what i download on the mac from my account is only visible on my account?? If you have time to answer this, i would really appreciate it!! Thanks

...granted they were in the Mac HD folder,
You mean Macintosh HD, i.e., your boot directory?  That is one of the place (actually a little deeper in there) that I was alluding to about a folder common to all accounts.  But that is not the default and the only way that could happen is if you changed the default from ~/Downloads.
You never said what browser you are using.  I'll assume it is Safari.  Open Safari's preferences, general tab, and look at the "Safe download files to".  Unless you have other reasons to place elsewhere set to Downloads in your home directory.  Given what you are describing it must not be currently set there and you must have changed it sometime in the past (maybe accidentially).
If you are not using Safari every other browser has a similar preference (e.g.., FireFox preferences, general, save files to).

    Delete the song from your library and re-download it from the Purchases section of the iTunes Store.

  • How do you stop download of OS Yosemite. From BOwa1

    How do you stop download of OS Yosemite. I started the download but changed my mind. can i stop the download or remove the upgrade after download.
    Thank You,
    BOwa1

    I don't know of a way to stop the download, but when it finishes it will run automatically. Simply quit the installer. You can then delete it from the Applications folder like any other file.

    Give each a different name. When each is connected set up your desired configuration for each one. iTunes will sync each according to the configuration you have made for each one.

  • When I play songs on my itunes account, they stop after about one minute and itunes goes to the next one.  how do I fix this? These are songs in entire albums that I have purchased.

    when I play songs on my itunes account, they stop after about one minute and itunes goes on to the next song.  This is happening with songs on albums I have purchased direclty through itunes

    Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past music purchases, delete the broken files from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click on the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
    If you don't see them straight away it may help to close and restart iTunes.
    While downloading select Downloads in the left-hand column and make sure Allow Simultaneous Downloads is unticked.
    If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

  • Address Bar works on one user account and not on the other

    Hi,
    I've trawled through so many forums to find an answer to my problem - perhaps it's quite unique.
    About a year ago my firefox address bar's autocomplete stopped working at all. I have the latest version and I've tried all the tricks around dumping the cache etc. Anyway, I got a new Mac yesterday and I opened up Firefox and everything worked as it should - great.
    However, I moved all my files/settings/applications etc across from my ole mac via migration assistant and now firefox does not work properly on that user account. So, I have two user accounts on the same mac, both running the same software applications. The user account with all the old files etc is the one I want to continue to use but Firefox won't work properly on it.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled, updated the version, cleared the cache...everything I can think of.
    I'm sick of Chrome crashing on me.
    Can anyone help???

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Can't access my old apple ID. I have a new one, but it keeps going to the old one to sign in and for updates.

    How can I delete the old ID and replace with new one for existing apps on my iPad ?

    All of the apps purchased or downloaded with the old ID will require that old ID and password in order to update them. If you want to avoid this delete the apps and download them again using the new Apple ID. Be aware that you will have to pay for any apps that cost money.

  • HT201250 Can I partition my external hard drive and use one partion for time machine and the other one for data that i may want to use in different computers?

    I have this doubt. I've just bought an external drive, especifically a Seagate GoFlex Desk 3 tb.
    I want to know if it is recomendable to make a partion exclusively for time machine and let another one so I can put there music, photos, videos, etc that I should need to use or copy to another computer.
    May half and half, 1.5 tb for time machine and 1.5 tb for data.
    I have an internal hard drive of 500 GB (499.25 GB) in my macbook pro.
    Any recommendation?

    As I said, yes. Be sure your Time Machine partition has at least 1 TB for backups.
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to two (2). Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.

  • If I had iTunes on one computer will it go to the other one?

    I had iTunes on one of my old laptops but then that laptop got stolen. If I download a new iTunes but use my same account will all of my music be on this new one??

    Only if YOU put it there.

  • Have two i phones owned by one person.  Gave older I phone 4 to spouse.  All synced items going to both phones.  Created two different Apple ID Accounts but still having problems.  Bought more icloud for one device but it went to the other one didnt need

    How can i seperate to i phones that have been synced together.  I created two different Apple Id accounts but for instance my icloud purchase didnt go to the phone i needed it to go to

    If you look at Settings > iCloud on each phone, is the Account different? The Apple ID listed there should control iCloud storage allocation.  [I assume your "icloud purchase" was more storage capacity.]
    The Apple ID is separately specified to control iMessage, iTunes and App Store purchases, etc.

  • HT3500 I have a MacBook Pro and an HP ENVY 110 SERIES All-In-One .  I can't seem to get a network set up or either one to locate or connect to the other one.

    I've spent hours, actually probably days, trying to do this but it's not working. I've had the ENVY since Nov
    and have not been able to print - much less do anything else with it.
    My internet is CLEAR wireless. I use the little USB 4G Mobil Modem. This new HP ENVY is also wireless.
    I know I can't be online and print at the same time unless I get a router.
    I also know that I can go offline and change the network pref  to "airport" so I can print. Meaning I'll have to change
    back and forth but for my uses,  that's ok..at least for right now.
    What I can't seem to get set-up correctly is my own local network.
    I'm pretty sure it's suppose to be done using "Airport".
    Obviously, I'm doing something wrong in establishing my network.
    The printer is listed on my printer preferences and shown as  "offline"  "default". I assume that means the ENVY
    is my default printer.  Great! At least my Pro knows it's suppose to connect to the ENVY once everything's set-up correctly.
    Now, if someone could just tell me exactly, step-by-step what to do to get that done....
    I'd be soooo very happy!
    Thank you!
    Ricki

    Well... no help was found here.. so I abandoned the wireless- ness of my printer.  I bought a
    small 10 port hub because only 2 USB ports really isn't enough with wireless mouse, wireless internet
    and any kind of printer.   I also bought a long USB cable.  I now print--wired since this can be done
    as an alternative to wireless with this printer.   Because I don't want a cable "hanging around"
    when the printer is not in use, I simple disconnect it and reconnect when I want to print.
    It's a temporary solution others may find helpful as well. Apparently there's been a lot of
    confusion and problems getting this printer set up wirelessly with our MacBooks.
    Shame on HP for not helping us out!

    Hi,
    the problem lies in the error message around the quorum device. The SC documentation, specifically the Sun Cluster Error Messages Guide at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-4681 explains this as follows:
    414208 QUORUM_GENERIC: quorum preempt error in CMM: Error %d --- QUORUM_GENERIC Tkown ioctl failed on quorum device %s.
    Description:
    This node encountered an error when issuing a QUORUM_GENERIC Take Ownership operation on a quorum device. This error indicates that the node was unsuccessful in preempting keys from the quorum device, and the partition to which it belongs was preempted. If a cluster is divided into two or more disjoint subclusters, one of these must survive as the operational cluster. The surviving cluster forces the other subclusters to abort by gathering enough votes to grant it majority quorum. This action is called "preemption of the losing subclusters".
    Solution:
    Other related messages identify the quorum device where the error occurred. If an EACCES error occurs, the QUORUM_GENERIC command might have failed because of the SCSI3 keys on the quorum device. Scrub the SCSI3 keys off the quorum device and reboot the preempted nodes."
    You should try to follow this advice. I would propose to chose a different QD before trying to do this, if you have one available. Is it possible that this LUN has been in use by a different cluster?
    To scrub SCSI3 keys you should use the scsi command in /usr/cluster/lib/sc: ./scsi -c inkeys -d <device> to check for the existence of keys, and ...-c scrub.. to remove any SCSI3 keys.
    Regards
    Hartmut
