HT5548 can you make apps appear on only one users launchpad

Hi I have recently got an imac and on the computer we have my user page, my wifes user page and one for our kids. We have downloaded some educational apps for the kids but I was just wondering if there was a way to make them just appear on the kids pag and not mine?
Any help greatly appreciated

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
On your Mac, you have one Applications folder stored on /Applications, and applications stored there shows on all users, and then, each user has got an Applications folder on ~/Applications, where you must save the apps that you want to show only on one user.
In your case, log in your kids user. Then, open Finder, choose the applications you want to show only on that account with Command key, go to Edit menu and select Copy.
After that, go to Go menu > Go to Folder, and type ~/Applications. Finally, right-click on the Finder window and press Paste, so applications will appear on that folder.
Also, to delete those applications from /Applications, choose Applications on the Finder sidebar, select the applications you copied to ~/Applications, and move them to the Trash. After doing this, those applications will only appear on your kids user

    Can I make OneDrive Pro sync only ONE-WAY?

    That sucks. DropBox can.
    We want to SYNC literature down to sales reps and not have the sales reps accidentally erase from the Cloud for all. Hence we want a one way SYNC to have them SYNC literature onto their computers for remote
    access to the files.
    Surely SharePoint cannot be that far behind DropBox.
    Is there no way to achieve that?

  • Can you make an adjustment layer only affect specific layers?

    I'd like to use adjustment layers to affect some layers in my project, but not have them change every layer underneath.  Is there a way to make an ajudstment layer only affect a specific layer (or layers)?
    Thanks.

    To make an Adjustment Layer only affect the layer directly beneath it,  hold down
    Alt, and move the cursor between the Adjustment Layer  and the underlying layer. When the cursor changes into two overlapping  circles, click. 
    This will use the underlying layer's transparency as a mask for the  effect. In other words, it will only apply the adjustment to the  underlying layer.

  • Can you make buttons appear "on success" on quiz slide?

    I'm not an expert Captivate user and don't know Javascript, so please excuse my ignorance if this question seems strange.
    I have a Captivate 6 project with several quiz slides peppered throughout the entire file. In other words, the quiz slides are not grouped together. Each slide, including the quiz slides, has a forward button and a back button.
    I would like for users to move forward and backward through the presentation in a linear fashion as they like, and this is working well. However, it would be nice if users weren't able to skip answering the quiz questions. I would like the buttons to appear after the user has answered the quiz question correctly, and then I would like the buttons to stay on the slide thereafter.
    Is this possible? Do you have a Javascript resource I could use for the "on success" action, or what other solutions do you recommend?
    Thank you!

    Hello,
    When you are talking about the default buttons Back and Next that you find on question slides, you don't have much control over them. As you probably did see they do not even appear as separate objects on the timeline. And I doubt that Javascript could realize what you want.
    Try first to understand how the work flow of question slides is designed:
    http://blog.lilybiri.com/question-question-slides-in-captivate
    You can drag the Next button under the Clear button (see blog post), normally Next during a Quiz is not needed, since the second step (Press Y or click on the slide) will move to the next slide.
    However the Back button is a more tricky button if you really want to have it. Maybe, didn't check it out, try to hide the back button to the user (make it transparent without a stroke) and have an image appear on top of that button after the first step on the question slide. The invisible Back under the image will remain active, it even has absolute priority over other objects.

  • Can you use apps on more than one iphone?

    My husband and I both have iphones. I sync my phone at work and he syncs his on our imac at home. We both have purchased apps that we would like to share. Can my apps be copied to the itunes at home and then be loaded on my husband's iphone? I think it is crazy that we have to pay so much for some of these business apps if we can't share them.

    Thanks - I haven't any way of testing it but quickly scanning that article, I cannot see anywhere which says about content purchased by two different accounts being share-able. It allows content to be moved into a central library which itself becomes share-able between multiple devices (like an iTunes library on one machine being useable by another) but as there is no mention of the second machine I assumed that it had to be logged in with the same account.
    I read it as sharing content between media purchased under the same account and if as was suggested earlier, Apps are DRM protected to a given account, I cannot see anywhere there which authorises Account A Apps to be used under Account B.
    Maybe it works in practice, I don't know, in which case the article needs to be rewritten to make this clear, or the statement that an App is tied to an Account is false.
    To take up wjostens point in the next post he/she says that both his and his wifes iPhone share the same Apps as they were bought with the same account. This I understand but thats NOT what the OP was asking.
    The OP's have Apps bought with different accounts altogether and if they are tied to Accounts as Lawrence Finch suggests I cannot see how Person A can use Person B's purchased material when the DRM allegedly should prevent this ?
    Surely if this were the case then anyone could use any App using Home Sharing by just importing Apps from a hard disc ?

  • Can you customize iCal to show only one kind of Entry. Work vs Home?

    I use iCal for work and home..is there way to just view HOME and Work separately? Like a filter.
    I don't want to see work stuff on the Calendar at home, since I have a ton of work stuff in my calendar, some of the personal entries get lost in my view.
    So I'd love a way to see "HOME ONLY" entries.
    I imported my Calendar information, synced it from Yahoo...so all the entries are CALENDAR..I'd like to convert them to Work or OFFICE in order to filter them.

    Sorry, wrong forum...reposted to the Windows forum.

  • How can I make App Store stick with one Apple ID login?

    I have an iPhone 3GS and recently upgraded to IOS5. The iTunes on our laptop has always recognized whether my phone or my husband's phone is plugged into it. However, since the upgrade, my App store on my phone keeps asking for the password to his account. Once in a while it will ask for the password to my account name. How do I get my phone to stop asking for his ID password?

    After much browsing and searching through the forums, I found out that somehow these apps were originally downloaded using my husband's Apple ID. After deleting them, downloading them again will prompt for my Apple ID and fix the problem.

  • Can you make a code lock on a app, so kids can play on it put not reed mails

    Can you make a code lock on a app, so kids can play on it put not reed mails

    You can't lock an app other than the few apps in the Restrictions:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
    unless it's a third-party app and it provides a password mechanism. You can, however, lock the iPad into a mode where only a single app chosen by you can run. See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5509
    If you want your kids to be able to use multiple apps, then you can't lock your Mail app and keep the out of it, and the only way to lock Messages is to turn it off in the Restrictions.
    Regards.

  • Can you add apps to iPad open in list

    Can you add apps to the open in list of an iPad

    As far as I know, you cannot add apps to the Open In list using any setting or built in feature in iOS. This is controlled by the iOS itself. IIRC, you can delete apps from the iPad that appear in the Open In list in order to make room for apps that you would like to appear in there, and if you continue to use the apps that you want to add to that list, eventually they will appear in the list. I believe that the more that you use one particular app, the more likely it will be for it to appear in the Open In list.

  • I just bought a used Macbook Pro. How do I make the changes to make it personal. Example the iTunes comes up as the old user and I have to have his password to make changes on the laptop. Can you make any suggestions?

    Also I cant make a right click on the pad. Is that normal?

    Your first going to have to remove all your personal data off the machine to a external storage drive, do not use TimeMachine when it asks as this will copy the entire drive and is unnecessary at this time (also takes too long).
    You need to drag and drop copy your personal data folders (Music, Pictures, Movies etc) to a external storage drive, once done, unmount and disconnect this drive.
    Most commonly used backup methods
    Next your going to follow the Zero Erase and install method for your OS X version, either 10.6 or 10.7, here
    How to reinstall just OS X or erase/install OS X
    10.7 requires your AppleID and password to install, so make sure to have that ready.
    Once you reboot your into the real setup of OS X, which will require your name etc, so it's now your machine.
    Install your programs, iLife package is only free for the owner of the machine.
    If you have the 10.6 machine specific disks, then it's on there.
    If your using 10.7, then you'll have to purchase it from the App Store.
    Last, return your files from the storage drive, consider setting up a TimeMachine or clone on the external drive.

  • How can you make one button preform different actions in Xcode?

    How can you make one button "preform a click" and "orderfront"? Is that possible? Because what I am doing is making a welcome window to my application for Mac OS X 10.6, and I have two buttons in that window, one says "Connect" which connects a a WebView to a url and the other button opens up the main window. So how can I a make a button do multiple things at once??

    Ah - If you are just using bindings between various objects from Interface Builder, you can reduce your application code a bit (sometimes quite a bit), but there is only so far you can go. Typically variables and routines are defined in your application that Interface Builder hooks into, so that your application code (usually Objective-C, but can be others) can use these variables and routines to determine what is happening in the user interface.
    I'm not sure how up-to-date the project code is (or what programming code you are familiar with), but you can take a look at Apple's Cocoa Application Tutorial to see what is (usually) involved in creating an application.

  • Can you create apps after 1st May 2015 using Adobe DPS single edition?

    Can you create apps after 1st May 2015 using Adobe DPS single edition?
    I currently have SE via creatieve cloud - one of the only reasons we switched to CC was for the DPS SE.
    Does anyone know if this capability will just be 'switched off' at midnight 1st May 2015?? There are huge costs for going the enterprise route but with no date in sight for Publish to be launched I am not sure I can wait for this, or should I???

    Adobe states: Please note that the Digital Publishing Suite, Single Edition, service will be available for use until May 1, 2015, but beyond that date the service will no longer be available.
    So essentially my licence will expire on 1st May - Adobe's note just mentions 'service' -  even though part of CC and I will not be able to maintain my app or create any more IPA's after 1st May. I can't beleive there is nothing to switch over to other than paying thousands of pounds for enterprise??
    Just all so vauge, feels like a plug is going to be pulled and thats it??? Maybe I am missing something?
