HT4796 How do I combine all users into one? iTunes, documents, pictures?

I just migrated files from my pc, to my new MacBook. I had multiple users on my pc and they transferred to my Mac in that way. Problem is, I don't want multiple users anymore.  Now that the files(itunes, pics, documents) are on my Mac, I want them all on one user. The admin user. One place.  Any idea how to move this stuff? Thank you!

Depends on how much data there is in total. You could just save all the data into the 'Shared' folder on the hard disk by going into each account and making copies or moving the data you want to keep. When that's done, switch to the account you want to move it to and copy it all in from the 'Shared' folder.
If there's too much for your HD, copy it all off to an external USB hard disk, delete all user accounts apart fromthe one you're going to use, then copy it from the external back into your admin user.

  • Question - how do I combine two users into one?

    I have migrated a lot of data to a MacBook Pro using Migration Assistant, in the process two users have been created on the Mac. How do I combine the two users into one?

    You don't. Just log in with one, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /Users/ as the path. and drag the folder there; you'll need to provide an administrator password at some point.

  • How Do I Combine Several Images Into One Image Which Contains Links To A Series Of Web Sites?

    How do I combine several images into one such that the combined image contains a series of web links? In particular, I’d like to create such an image and put it into my Outlook email signature. At present, as per the image below, I have at least six separate images in my email signature with each image containing a web link. Is Photoshop the best tool for this job? Or would it be easier to do this in some other package? I have three packages at my disposal: Photoshop, Ilustrator and Dreamweaver. Can someone please explain in detail how I would do this? Or perhaps someone could direct me to a link that explains how to do this. Thank you.

    Thank you for that correction, Hobotor. I admit I hadn't thought about an image map, in the context of someone who doesn't seem to know HTML very well...  My thinking was running along the use of the Photoshop Slice Tool to get most of the way there...
    To expand on the above, if you were to slice up your image using the Slice Tool, say like this:
    Save for Web & Devices will create the HTML and save all the sub-images.
    Then you edit the HTML and add a (hypertext link) elements surrounding the various images.  Only thing is you'll have to set the border-style of the images to none.
    For example:
    <!-- Save for Web Slices () -->
    <table id="Table_01" width="554" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
    <tr>
      <td colspan="10">
       <img id="Sig_01" style="border-style:none" src="images/Sig_01.jpg" width="554" height="56" alt="" /></td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td colspan="10">
       <a href="http://www.GrahamsWebSite.com"><img id="Sig_02" style="border-style:none" src="images/Sig_02.jpg"
            width="554" height="43" alt="" /></a></td>
    </tr>
    etc.

  • How do I combine two regents into one in Logic Pro Arrange?

    how do I combine two regents into one in Logic Pro Arrange?

    Thanks for your input kcstudio. I would still be left with 2 regions although one after the other, on one track.
    I am trying to save steps of the way I am combining the info of 2 seperate regions into one: bouncing the 2 tracks then re-importing that audio back into the project. It would save a lot of time if you could just drag one region on top of the other

  • HT1473 When downloading a CD album, if it contains different artists, the album is split up into separate albums/icons. How do I get all songs into one album (just like the original CD)?

    When downloading a CD album, if it contains different artists, the album is split up into separate albums/icons. How do I get all songs into one album (just like the original CD)?

    Generally, in iTunes, all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist to keep things together. For older iPods each track from the same album should have the same artist, or be marked as a compilation where appropriate. For iOS devices you may need to go to Settings > Music > Group By Album Artist > On.
    For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

    I just switched to Yosemite, and now I cannot figure out how to combine several pdfs into one document. I rarely need to do this, so I looked at past tutorials, but nothing seems to work. Help!

    How do I combine to clips, into one split screen clip
    Since iMovie '08 automatically centers files and currently has no control settings that allow the user to offset or displace the clips, this effect cannot be done from within this versions of iMovie. You can, of course do this externally using QT Pro, Final Cut, or Studio.

  • How do I scan multiple pages into one pdf document on a HP Envy 4501 Printer

    My HP Envy 4501 Printer won't let me scan multiple pages into one pdf document.
    I went to "Advanced Settings", clicked on "file" and made sure that the check box next to "Create a separate file for each scanner page" was unchecked.
    When I clicked the Save button it showed the page that I scanned and showed 1/1.  On the right side it had options for changing the brightness and Contrast, Rotate and Crop and "Back", "Save" and "Done" buttons, but nothing about scanning another page.
    Not to mention HP's Customer Support is useless!
    I'd appreciate any help I can get with this problem.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Hi BH,
    I see your diagram.  I just scanned something.  The screen that I'm looking at right now shows the preview page and the scroll box to the left of that just like in your diagram.  The screen does not show the + button nor does it show the red x button under the scroll box as in your diagram.  I can't see the plus sign because it is not there.
    I tried re-installing the software and drivers as you suggested but that did not have any affect.
    Thank you for trying to help me with this problem but it hasn't worked, therefore I can't mark the reply "Accept as Solution".
    I've noticed that on HP's support forum web page there is only 1 solved request for assistance.  That doesn't give me much confidence in HP.
    Please reply back to this post to let me know if there is anything else that I can try or if you know someone else at HP that can help.
    If I don't here back from you, I'm returning this HP Envy 4501 Printer to get my money back to use it to buy a printer from one of HP's competitors.
    Thanks,
    Mark  

  • I have three different ipods with music on them and have had to replace our computer as it was in a fire. How can we combine the ipods into one ipod.

    We had to replace our computer due to a fire and lost many of the fiels which were on them. Many were music files for the ipods, we have thre. Also, do not have ID's and passwords to the iTunes store.

    Just so you know the method suggested by Nelsonleee will cost your $29.95 USD, Yamipod is free.

  • How can I combine multiple pdfs into one document?

    I need to consolidate multiple docs into one.  How do I do that?

    It's pretty easy. Open multiple PDF documents in Apple Preview that came with your Mac. Choose View/Thumbnails so you can see the page thumbnail icons. Select any number (or all) of the page thumbnail icons of one document and drag them to any point in the thumbnails of another document.
    For example you can drag page 6 of one PDF between pages 40 and 41 of another PDF doc. But it sounds like you want to select all pages of one PDF and drag them to the end of another PDF doc.
    If you need more powerful document combining you can use PDFpen or Adobe Acrobat Professional, but they cost money.
