I have multiple profiles and want to go back to a single profile without losing data or programs that are not shared

Hi
I need help
My partner has set up multiple profiles on the iMac and has not done the sharing of files and software correctly. Therefore we have some programs that do not operate in all profiles. I want to go back to a single profile but need to be sure I am not going to lose any data or programs in the process.
Can any one give me a step by step guide - I am not mac savvy.
Thanks in advance

Hello!
I recently just downloaded the 'Waze' app as a backup for my Garmin. I've read a few reviews that seem to rant and rave about how good the GPS app is. It is community driven and maps are constantly being updated by users. Plus it has a few other fun stuff in it (something similar to Gasbuddy where you can owe prices on the map). But like the person above me said, there is lots of useful free GPS apps in the App Store.
Oh and I may be wrong but I remember reading an article about Google being slower about updating its maps system--ie no turn by turn voice, which many people have had complaints about.
Happy Searching!
Ps - if you switch I wouldn't go to Blackberry.

Roaming Profiles hiding desktop shortcuts from programs that are not installed on PC

Hi Technet,
I am in the middle of a GPO review and I am making a few changes to the roaming profile policy on my network. It is currently working but I have come across an issue that I am unsure how to correct. I am trying to hide desktop shortcut
that are not installed on the end users PC while roaming profiles is enabled.
Let me explain further
Let’s say I have two PC but with different program installed (as an example one PC has Adobe Photoshop and one does not) I want the end user to be able to log into both PC and only see desktop shortcuts that match the software which is
installed on that PC but while using a roaming profile. Currently when the user logs into the PC that doesn’t have Adobe Photoshop installed they are presented with a blank desktop icon as the roaming profile has cached this icon from the first PC. Is there
a way to hide program icons that do not exist on another PC while still using roaming profiles.
Any assistance would be most appreciated.
Thanks Nick

Remove all related shortcuts from the user's desktop dir and recreate
them on the all users desktop dir. These will NOT roam :)

I am a teacher and want to distribute a textbook I created using iBooks Author through Ibooks. We are not 1 to 1 and students share devices on a cart. Can I publish and distribute the book if it is used by multiple students?

Title says it. I created a textbook using Ibooks Author and want to load it on my class set of 30 iPads that are used by 5 different groups of students throughout the day. It is not a 1 to 1 device. Is there a problem with doing this as the Apple ID would be a generic that downloads the content many times on each iPad for my students?

The two processes are so unalike that you need to bone up on what they involve before answering, I think...you can't just shrug and expect specific help, sorry.
See iBooks Author: Publishing and distribution FAQ - Support
Distribution isn't automatically like iOS apps, where the store is involved by default.
You are free to put your .ibook file on a school server/your own server, and anyone can download for free and use it, independent of any Apple ID and the app store. If you want to restrict to your school/students, put it behind a login.
You can put it in the store as a free download and any Apple ID can download and use via any iTunes Account. If you sell via the store, each download/purchase is tied to the Apple ID used to facilitate that transaction. This is not a requirement.
Again, you need to become more familiar with the distribution process and not worry so much about the Apple ID scheme involved at the moment so you can make an informed decision, I think

Upgraded my phone and restored it from my old backup. I want to sync with a different comp now without losing data.

I upgraded my iphone from a 3GS to a 4s and I uploaded the apps, data etc from the backup of my old phone which was synced with an older G5 Mac as well as a newer PC. The music library is on the older Mac. Going forward I'm only backing up my new phone on the newer PC b/c the OS and iTunes versions on my Mac are not recent enough to be compatible and the computer is too old to update. I'd like to sync w/the music library on my new computer without losing my apps data. Can I sync with the library on my new computer without losing everything else on my phone?

I want to go back from 401 to previous without losing bookmarks etc.

I prefer previous start page.

Actually, it's pretty easy to change the start page.
If you go to Google.com in a new window, you then can set that as you home page using the techniques in this article: [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page How to set the home page | How to | Firefox Help].
(If you want the old Google page with the Firefox 3 "skin", that URL is
http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
However, that page doesn't check your Firefox version, so it will not know you have upgraded to Firefox 4.)
If there are other reasons you want to roll back, here's how:
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 4.
You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

I just tried to install latest iTunes version and install failed. A pop-up stated "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. ERROR 7 (Windows error 1114)." I have a decent-sized iTunes library that is not backed-up to the cloud. How can I either get back to the previous iTunes version that was functioning OR install a new version without losing the Library?

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I have multiple iphones and want to use find my iphone how do I track more than 1 phone

How do I set up multiple iPhones on 1 account for "find my iPhone"?

Find My iPhone is tied to the iCloud account that each device is using. You can track all your phones without sharing the same iCloud account by going to icloud.com, signing into the account that the phone you want to track is using, and clicking Find My iPhone. This can also be done from your phone by using the Find My iPhone app (available in the App store).
Of course, you could track them all using a single ID if you were willing to share the iCloud account across all the phones. However, there are significant disadvantages to doing this. They would all share the same 5GB of free iCloud storage, the same iCloud email account, the same photo stream, and all the synced data (contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc.) would be merged across all of the phones. If they belong to different people, you would end up with each other's data on your phones.

I have OS X 10.5.8. Can I load Snow Leopard without losing data and then upgrade to Lion?

I am using OS X 10.5.8. I have a disk with Snow Leopard on it, but I don't know if I downloaded it. Can I download this Snow Leopard disk without risking a loss of data on my MacBook Pro?

If by "download" you mean "install," then you can install Snow Leopard over a Leopard system. But anything can happen, so it would be wise to backup first.
1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from the Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Install Snow Leopard
If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer. Boot from the Snow Leopard installer DVD. Follow the onscreen instructions. Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files. After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
Download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

How to move a standalone Cisco C series to UCS managed service profile without losing data?

Hi,
We currently have a standalone cisco C series server with Windows 2012 installed on the local disks. We need to move this server to Cisco UCS managed with a service profile but cannot lose the existing data and OS boot method.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks

Hi Adrian,
To be able to accomplish this set the local disk policy to "Any Configuration" this way UCSM won't overwrite the current raid configuration on the server.
See link below

I just bought my company boss's iphone 3gs and want to set it up in my PC without loosing the apps on it.

I just bought my company boss's iphone 3gs and want to set it up in my PC without losing the apps & music already on it. I have already got a library for my old iphone 3g and was wondering how to go about it.
cheers

That's called stealing, plain & simple. Your boss(or anyone for that matter) does not have the right to distribute any content, for any reason. The SLA does not permit such. When you plug the phone into your computer, all iTunes content will be erased from the phone, as it should be. You want content, purchase your own.

Sorry, downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple, thus there is no official way to do so. Your phone was re-locked to the carrier it was originally locked to because you hacked it to unlock it. Apple's servers detected such & re-locked your phone. You need to contact the carrier your phone is locked to if you want to get it officially unlocked.
