If each of my family members have Elements on their computers, can we all share central catalog?

Like most families, each of our family members have their own camera. Rather than having catalogues on individual computers, can we share the one single catalogue from a central NAS drive etc?

Hi Hatstead,
A NAS drive is just a sharable network drive that all computers can see. The Adobe Revel suggestion is a good one. I will give it a try but not sure if it will support all the metadata tags that I have in Adobe Elements in order to view the photos/videos in different ways. It would also appear that if each family member will be uploading more photo's etc allowed for by the free licence that I will be up for the premium subscription for each of them per year. Do you know if this is the case and will it support the Elements Metadata tags?
Many Thanks
John

  • Several family members have iphones and our contacts are all merged. Help me stop that please.

    Several of our family members have iPhones. Our contact lists keep merging, along with our bookmarks and other things like that. How can we create a separate space for each of us so that we don't share all that information?

    Yes, set them up with their own Apple IDs:
    http://appleid.apple.com
    An Apple ID may have been entered in the following places:
    Settings > iCloud > Account
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive
    Settings > FaceTime
    Settings > iTunes & App Stores

  • 3 family members have new iphones.  we are using the cloud. how do we keep emails separate

    3 family members have new iphones. we are using the cloud.  how do we keep emails separate

    Use separate iCloud accounts, with separate IDs.  (Note: you can continue to share the same ID for the iTunes and App stores; it does not have to be the same as the ID used for iCloud.)  One phone can keep the current account.  On the other two, go to Settings>iCloud and turn all data that is syncing with iCloud (contacts, calendars, etc.) to Off.  When prompted choose to keep the data on the iPhone.  (If you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, also open your iWork apps and turn off iCloud syncing and choose to keep the documents on your phone.)  After everything is turned off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from these phones, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  Next, set up a new iCloud account on these phones using separate Apple IDs and turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On.  When prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new accounts.
    If you have merged data in your accounts at this point, you will have to go to icloud.com on your computer, sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the unwanted data (such as deleting the other phone's contacts from your account, and vice versa).

  • Do family members have access to my whole cloud?

    Hi
    Do family members have access to my whole icloud and icloud drive? Or only to my apps and books?
    I am not the "main member".
    Thanks

  • HT2513 I have a family with 5 iPhones and separate iCloud accounts. How can we all share a common calendar?

    My family had 5 iPhone 4S with separate iCloud accounts. How can we all share a common ICal amongst each other to manage the family schedule.

    So you've shared the calendar, your family has accepted and added the calendar to their devices, but they do not recieve any changes or additons thay have been made since then? Is that correct?
    Is the calendar you shared in your iCloud accounts in Calendar (as opposed to another account you've set up to sync calendars with your device)?
    What happens if one of you family members attempts to edit the calendar?
    Do you have a computer form which you can access the iCloud.com site? Does it refelct the latest updates to the shared calendar?

  • Can I put more than one user under one Apple ID account. I want to let other family members use imessage on their own Apple device. Or is there another way to get this end result?

    You can seach the net for solutions like this one http://appletvvpn.com/how-to-connect-apple-tv-2-to-vpn/ another idea is to use a PC as the control and fit that with a wireless card and set up a ad hoc wireless network that the Apple TV uses.

  • How can I protect my data in numbers from unintentional user of my iPad by other family members? In other words, how can I password protect my numbers and other apps from apple computer company?

    I have other members of my family use my iPad for educational/recreational use, young children who may want to play kid games. I don't want them to accdently get into my data stored in the three business apps from apple. I would like to password protect these files.
    I would also like to log out of the email systems that I use, so some one else can use this device to access their own emails. By leaving my accounts open al the time, is really asking for trouble from a host of sources.
    I can't believe that the iPad is not designed to protect the privacy and data from prying eyes ... Un intuitional as it may be.
    Please fix this issue so I create my info on this device and enjoy it fully. Or tell me how I can protect my data.
    Thnax.

    Thanx for your response. Any data stored anywhere should be able to be protected from stealing, malicious destruction or unintentional destruction. Theo ad an be stolen and without any kind ofpassword protection, the thief could get into your sensitive data.
    If Apple wants iPad to become a business tool that can be used with ideas, thots, data protected, then Apple needs to provide this protection to it's customers. Now it's unto the users to use it or not.
    I know iPad is being considered to be used by doctors, and can u imagine the confidentiality requirements of HIPPA rules... It will make this device not usable without data protection. I am sureweall have heard about hacking going on at all levels. It's surprising that this device's software is left unprotected.
    My iPad may be sitting on my desk and my 3 year old grand daughter would pick it up and start "playing" with it. That means I can't store anything on this machine that may possibly be changed.
    I have discussed this with specialists in apple stores, and those who have been around info technology understand my concerns and they may forward this request further up. They do not have the answer for it..... So far.
    I think data security should be everyone's concern... Be it a one person device or multiple user device.
    I hope that some responsible people at Apple would read this and provide the protection that will make this device lot more acceptable in the business world.

  • What is the best way to set up iTunes on our home network so all family members have access to all of our itunes library, even music we don't have on the cloud?

    I have five different people using 10 different apple devices on one itunes account in our family.  We have had trouble sharing.  What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network?  We have purchased music that sits on icloud, but we also have music we have imported from our previous cd library.  Our itunes program keeps crashing and dumping everyone's playlists.  So far we have all been using just the one desktop computer to sync to because we can't figure out how to share the same librarly and playlists on multiple computers in our home so devices can be synced at any location as well as playlists and purchases be made. 

    What is the best way to set up itunes on our home network? 
    One iTunes library per person.  One iTunes account per person.
    If people wish to share songs, they can make copies.
    When the inevitable day comes when the kids get older, you will not have to come back here and post asking how all that stuff can get separated!

  • My family members live in different countries. Can I use Family Share with accounts in different Itunes store countries?

    It would be great to share a photo library... and music if possible

    Forgot to add, no experience with these, if it was a touch, I would create her own Apple ID and just hook it up with wifi in the respective houses.

    You need to tell us more.  When you say "I can't get it to work" what exactly do you mean.  Can you launch it and get to the welcome screen?  Alternatively, tell us how far can you go when you launch the product.

  • I have Elements 10. I can start the application and I can activate the Editor. When I try to activate the Organizer I keep getting the messsage: "Elements10 Organizer has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop. Please close the program".

    It worked this morning. The only change done during the day is adding 250 photos to the Organizer

    Hi,
    If it was working but now fails, it could be a problem with your catalog.
    I would suggest you try repairing and optimizing it
    Load the organizer
    From the File menu, select Catalog - that should open the Catalog Manager.
    Select you current catalog and click on the Repair button
    When that has finished, click on the Optimize button
    When that is done, click on the Cancel button to close the Catalog Manager.
    If it crashes before you can get into the Catalog Manager, start the organizer while holding down the shift key - that should go straight into the Catalog Manger - resume at step 3 above.
    If after repairing, you still get it crashing, then try the next test.
    Start the organizer while holding down the shift key so that you enter the Catalog Manager.
    Click on the New button (top right) and enter a new name (TestCat or something) and click on OK button.
    That should create a new empty catalog. You can see if that says up for more than a minute. You could try importing a few images but I suggest that you don't do anything with them.
    If that stays running then we know it is the catalog - otherwise it is the application.
    Good luck
    Brian
