I want to set up 5 iMacs (running 10.9) to access the same iPhoto library on a MacPro server (running 10.9)?

Is it possible to set this up?
How do I set this up?
Will the computers be able to access the library simultaneously?
Thanks

The following is from this Apple document: iCloud: System requirements
* Note: Although you can use iOS 5 and OS X Lion as noted above, you will not be able to take advantage of some iCloud features, such as Shared Photo Streams, iCloud Tabs, Find My iPhone Lost Mode, Documents in the Cloud for iWork, and Find My Friends location-based alerts.

  • As a new member to the mac world could some please tell how i can get my imac, macbook and iPhone to share the same iPhoto library

    How can i share the same iPhoto library so that i dont have to update each computer?

    Not easily. iPhoto is designed for a single user. While it is possible to share the Library there are significant limitations.
    Some questions: Do you want all three libraries identical? Same photos, same Albums, Same slideshows?
    Do you import and arrange photos on one machine or on all of them?
    What networking do you have?

  • Currently my daughter and I use 1 apple id. Is there a way to set her up on a new id but with the same itunes library

    Hi. My daughter and I share 1 apple id (username and password). How do I set her up with her own apple id and password on her mac but she keeps all the songs from the itunes library?

    Make copy of the current library, and copy it to her new Mac.  Once it is there, she can delete whatever she doesn't want (i.e. your stuff).
    Start the new account, and she can use it to buy stuff going forward.

  • New to the Apple and I want to set up a user account that will not delete the guest users files and allow and preserve their personal settings after log out. Is this possible?

    New to the Apple and I want to set up a user account that will not delete the guest users files and allow and preserve their personal settings after log out. Is this possible?

    The built-in guest user account will not do this. Simply create a new standard account and call it "Guest" or "Guest Users" or whatever you like.
    Go to System Preferences > Users& Groups, click "+" to make a new account.

  • New iMac or new Mac Mini... and iPhoto Library separate drive?

    I have a 2007 iMac Intel Core Duo 2.4Ghz (4 meg RAM) with a hard drive in need of repair, according to Disk Utility (and repeated by DriveGenius 3.)  The Repair option is not available.  I have had occasional difficulty with this particular Mac, and this is actually my second hard drive,and it is out of warranty.  I had already planned to replace this computer later this year.
    In attempting to download and install Lion OS, the install failed, and the computer became essentially inoperable.  I was able to use Time Machine to get it back running, but cannot repair what is surely a damaged HD.  Apple Support came to the same conclusion.
    I have become interested in a few goals:  (1) To purchase a Mac Mini along with an Apple Thunderbolt monitor (when available) in order to separate my CPU from my monitor.  (2) I want to separate my media files from a CPU hard drive for safety, for the very problem I am experiencing now.  (3) I want to make my iPhoto library and iMovie library available to my wife – perhaps on an external dedicated drive - for her newer iMac, to various iPhones and iPads, and to two Apple TV units. 
    We have a home network with an Airport Extreme, and several Ethernet outlets.  Both iMac’s currently use Western Digital external drives for Time Machine backups.  I have another external Seagate drove solely for my iMovie files.  I just purchased a Time Capsule 2TB (but have not yet opened) with the idea that this would be where the “shared” iPhoto library resides.
    My questions –
    Would you recommend using a Mac Mini + monitor, or go with a new iMac (my current iMac is my third and the only one that has given me some problems.)  I do not have any specialized use of my computer beyond the common iLife applications.
    I want my photos and videos to be easily available to my family on their Apple devices (I’m the only one with the significant family photo library) and I haven’t quite devised a plan to accomplish that.  Can you make suggestions?
    Thanks for any assistance you can offer.

    Currently the Library is on EHD 1 and you want to copy it to EHD2?
    Connect them both to the iMac. Make sure EHD2 formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)  and drag the iPhoto Library from EHD 1 to EHD 2
    To open either Library with iPhoto 11: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    It will update the Library to the new formats. Remember once you do this the older versions of iPhoto will no longer be able to read it.

  • Can I sync the same iTunes library on both my iMac and my MacBook Pro?

    Can I sync the same iTunes library on both my iMac and my MacBook Pro?  I've been connecting my iPhone to each and it's causing problems for me with them being different, despite my purchases always being under the same Apple ID.

    The easy way to do this is to keep the library on an external drive which you can plug into either computer.  Of course this isn't always the desirable solution.  You can try routinely copying the library from computer to computer though this gets tiresome. 
    Of possible relevance:
    Using iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1202 - You can manage your iPhone, iPad, or iPod with multiple computers as long as you have set the device to "Manually manage music."  -  e.g. adding music from a second computer to an i-device.

  • I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer.

    I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets on the network have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer. Yet Network control panel says I am connect to the modem, and Network Diagnosis says I am connected to the Internet. It's like the blind man who has eyes that cannot see. BTW, I am not some newbee. I have been a Machead since the early nineties and set up a half dozen networks, including the one I am using at home to which the iMac mysteriously is there but not. This has me stumped! I am considering going back to 10.7!

  • Got help fixing my youtube problem, now that is working.  In the process of making the fix, lost my aol set up. Re installed it, but cannot access the icon. How do i get my AOL back?

    Got help fixing my youtube problem, now that is working.  In the process of making the fix, lost my aol set up. Re installed it, but cannot access the icon. How do i get my AOL back?

    If it's an application, it should be in the Applications folder. If in doubt, double click on the hardrive icon to open it up, then press Command+F (find) and in the window that comes up for what you want to find, type in AOL and it should appear. You can either drag it to the Dock for easy access or make an alias of that, and drag that alias to the Dock. Oh, and just so's you know, this forum is for Desktop macs only. We may be able to answer your question about a MacBook Pro. Same kind of animal, but different breeds.

  • We don't want to synchronise the custom views on every client accessing the same account

    Hi
    In our company we have a few clients accessing the same exchange account (not as shared mailbox). Outlook always synchronizes the custom view settings and inbox view (such as sorting order) between all clients. We want to disable this behavior, say Client1
    shows ExchAccount1 inbox sorted by categories, Clinet2 shows ExchangeAccount1 sorted by receiving time, maybe having set different default fonts and so forth.
    Every client should be able to keep it's custom view settings even if the view is changed on another client accessing the same mailbox with the same login. Is this possible to accomplish?
    Thanks already

    Hi wasiwasi,
    Base on my knowledge, it is impossible to accomplish.
    When you log the same mailbox on different clients, it will sync with each other, and save the last changed on the client.

  • Hi. I opened iPhoto and, suddenly, it tells me " WHAT IPHOTO LIBRARY DO I WANT TO USE?" but i had a iPhoto library. When i search on my Pictures, i have the file IPHOTO LIBRARY but it appears on a dim letters and i can not open it.

    Hi. I need some help on the following problem. I opened iPhoto and, suddenly, it tells me " WHAT IPHOTO LIBRARY DO I WANT TO USE?" but i had a iPhoto library. When i search on my Pictures, i have the file IPHOTO LIBRARY but is was not the icon on it i previously remembered and it appears on a dim letters and it can not be opened ... How can i recover it??

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
