Importing User settings from one CC user into another

Hi There,
I want to import user settings from one account, then use those as a base to setup user setting for another. IE I want to use my settings from work [which I did not pay for] and use that as a starting point for my personal user account at my home office [which I did pay for].
I'm concerned about messing up my work settings + at home I'm on a laptop, not a 2 display tower.
Specificaly, its the custom keyboard, sequence and output, and loging colums/metadata display settings that I'd love not to have to setup from scratch, again.
Also, I have co workers who prefer my settings and I'd like to share these with them- but don't want them to be signed in as me, and messing me up accidentaly.
Many Thanks
David

OK so this does not work. I'm running CC, on OSX 10.8.3.
For those that don't know, in order to reveal the library folder in OSX 10.7+, you need to either enter this into terminal:
Permanent Reveal:
chflags nohidden ~/Library/
Permanent Hide:
chflags hidden ~/Library
Or hold down option key + finder/go, for temporary reveal.
So after doing this, and coying over the directories Jax mentioned [+ '7.0' folders, as I'm in CC], I'm still not getting the keyboard mappings, just the defaults.
I've just synced with my work account, and brought up another issue: My scratch disks and media paths are all different on my home office, and I don't want to have to reset those everytime I switch from one location to another.
If I could get what Jax sudgested to work, that would be an exelent work arround for this situation. Otherwise its a feature request for managing syncing between multiple accounts...
Thanks again Jax for tyring to help

  • Migrating User Settings from one local user to another

    I have an iMac running 10.5.4 with some issues (Parallels hanging at random moments). One of the tests I did to troubleshoot it was create a new user profile, and run the same (shared) Parallels machine as that new user, which seemed to fix the problem.
    I would like to being gradually copying over user preferences & data from the old account to the new one, bit by bit, so that if one of those items is causing the problem with Parallels, we can catch it.
    Is there a preferred way to copy or move over user settings from one local account to another on the same Mac? Basic files like Documents, etc. I know I can just drop into the Shared folder, but I am more concerned with Preferences, apps that use databases to point to files (like iTunes), and permissions.
    Thank you!

    V.K. (and anyone else who cares) - I finally figured out the problem: the mount point for the volume containing my Home directory ("Data") was changed by the system, but only on my primary startup volume ("System")... so when I booted from SystemClone everything was okay... but when I booted from System I had no account, no preferences, no nothing. Because the visible label on the volume containing Home was correct (even though the actual name - the mount point - was different), regardless of whether I booted from System or SystemClone, I assumed everything here was in order.
    Bottom line: when booting from System, my Data volume's visible label read "Data" .. the path to Home directory under the account's advanced settings read "/volumes/data/directoryName" ... but my Data volume's mount point read "Data 1" .. when booting from SystemClone, my Data volume's visible label read "Data" .. the path to Home directory under the account's advanced settings read "/volumes/data/directoryName" ... and my Data volume's mount point read "Data" (so everything worked).
    Lesson learned: don't assume.. check the mount point reference using Disk Utility.
    Approach validated: if I didn't have a bootable SystemClone, I would have never been able to figure this out, and repair everything without rebuilding.

  • Can I copy my apps/user settings from one drive/OS to another?

    I have one drive of my system with 10.3.9, that I've been using for quite awhile, with all my apps, preferences, registrations etc.
    I just installed a clean install of 10.4.3 on another drive.
    Is there away to clone/copy all my user settings from the 10.3.9 drive to the 10.4.3 drive, so that it behaves the same way?
    I didn't want to user the "transfer user settings" when I installed 10.4, because I need to keep the 10.3.9 system exactly as is.

    Just erase the hard drive first. Here's the basic cloning process using Disk Utility:
    1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    2. Select the startup volume from the left side list.
    3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    4. Drag the startup volume to the Source entry field.
    5. Select the backup volume from the leftside list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Check the box to Erase Destination.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    If you prefer to keep your Panther system, then clone it to the new drive and update the new drive to Tiger. If you want both drives to have Tiger installed, then upgrade the Panther system to Tiger, then clone it to the new drive.
    If you'd rather see how it goes using Migration Assistant, then by all means give it a try. Worst thing that can happen is you end up doing it my way. If Migration Assistant works properly you'll save some time and effort.

  • How to transfer user settings from one account to another (on the same Mac)

    I'd like to create separate user accounts for "work" and "play" (so that I can do things like have separate address books, etc...). However, I already have LOTS of personalized settings (trackpad behavior, login items, etc) that I'd like to keep the same between the two accounts.
    Is there a way to transfer all of the user settings from one account to another?

    You'll need to copy your /Home/Library folder. Make sure you back up first before doing the following. Log out of both your Work and Play accounts. Log in to a third account with administrator privileges. Assuming you are copying from the account called "work" to the account called "play", enter the following in Terminal:
    sudo rm -rf ~play/Library (this deletes Play's Library folder.)
    sudo cp -R ~work/Library ~play/Library (this copies Work's Library folder to Play's folder.)
    sudo chown -R play ~play/Library (this fixes permissions of Play's new Library folder.)

  • Copying a page from one picture book into another

    Does anyone know how to copy a page from one picture book into another. I have made 2 books and would like to make a third consisting of pages from the first 2 but seem unable to do it without starting again, or at least starting from a duplicate of one and re doing all the missing pages.

    Welcome to the Apple user to user assistance forums
    print each page you want to include in "book 3" to a PDF and use the send PDF to iPhoto option - this will give you the pages as images in iPhoto that you can them place into "book 3"
    See Old Toad's tutorial #19 for more details - http://web.mac.com/toad.hall/OldToadsTutorials/No._19.html - note that it is slightly different - you are only using the beginning part

  • Looking for a way to move entire pages from one photo book into another photo book.

    I haven't found out how to move pages from one photo book into another. Surely this is possible?
    Also on the subject of photo books: it seems that it is not possible to enlarge the size of a text box. Or has anyone found a way to accomodate more than 1 line of text on a photo book page?

    You can look through some of the different Layouts available.
    Select your page.
    Click the "Layout" icon on the lower right hand of the application window.
    Above it will appear a "BACKGROUND" section and a "LAYOUT" section.
    Immediately below the "LAYOUT" is a drop down menu which will show you all the different options.

  • I dragged a cut out image from one photoshop document into another and now it is blurry. What to do?

    I dragged a cut out image from one photoshop document into another and now it is blurry. What can I do to prevent this?

    What is the resolution of the image that you "dragged"? The resolution is the number in pixels per inch (ppi). If you dragged a significantly lower resolution file into a higher resolution file, it could result in a blurry image.
    see below:
    For further reading of Key Concepts:
    http://www.adobe.com/designcenter-archive/keyconcepts/articles/concept_resolution.html
    You can determine the image size by choosing Image > Image Size
    below you can see the pixel dimensions of my example image.

  • Mass user movement from one org. unit to another in SRM org. structure

    Hi,
    Is there any way by which i can move mass users from one organisational unit to another in SRM org. structure..
    there is a thread available in SDN but it is not conclusive. it talks abt using a FM: BBP_USER_CHANGE_ORG
    BR
    Bharat M

    Bharat-
    I am assuming that your requirement is to move mass users from One Org node to another. Ex One Plant Org node to Another plant Org node.
    If my assumption is correct then, please follow the below steps.
    1) Go in to the change mode of Org Plan using T-code PPOMA_BBP
    2) Using shift key, select all the users that you need to move.
    3) Drag and Drop the selected users to the desired Org node.
    If the user IDs are not in sequence then you can use Ctrl key to select the relevant user ID.
    Let me know if you have any questions.
    If the answer is helpful, please reward points.
    Regards,
    Upendra.

  • How do I move settings from one Airport unit to another?

    I am considering buying one of those new Airport Expresses, the one with dual band. I have a few questions about importing the settings (from my existing Extreme unit):
    - Is it true that it's better to start from scratch when setting up the new unit (vs. importing the settings from the old), because the performance will be better?
    - Assuming I do import: Won't there be a problem where, even for a short time (that is, until I deactivate my old unit), I'll have two Airport units with the same settings running simultaneously? What should I do about that?
    - How do I reset my old unit to its factory settings so I don't have my network name and password still stored in it?

    I always prefer to factory reset. Never bother with importing, and when I do it didn't always work right for me anyway.
    To reset the router to factory defaults, hold in the reset button as you plug it into the outlet. Keep holding the pin down until it flashes amber rapidly.

  • Get the mapping values from one message mapping into another message mappin

    Hi All,
    I created two graphical message mappings. In first message mapping i created one user defined function and set one global container parameter and I need to use this parameter in my second message mapping user defined function. But the global container parameters can be used in different user defined functions in same message mapping. So is there any way to use the values which are set in one message mapping into another message mapping. If yes, please help me how to get?

    Hi Koteswara rao,
      As you said global container parameters from first message mapping are not accessible from second message mapping program.
    i haven't faced situation like this.but, if you have some unmapped field in target message in first message mapping,you can put global variables data in that unmapped field.
    anyway the output of first message mapping would be input for 2nd messages mapping,so you can access global data(unmapped field filled with global data in 1st MM) from 2nd mapping program..
    Cheers,

  • Getting User Settings from One MBP to another MBP

    Scenario:  I've got two 2011 MBP 13" 2.7ghz 500GB Hybrid SSD 8GB RAM laptops.  On one of them, the hard drive became unrepairable, so in order to fix, I transferred all of my data via thunderbolt from the unrepairable hard drive to the other MBP's hard drive.  I then erased and restored the hard drive of the machine not working and reinstalled Lion.  All good.  I then transferred all of my data back.  Question, how do I get my user settings back if I skipped the set up assistant the first time around?  Migration assistant?  I put the MBP holding my old data in target disk mode but I only am able to migrate the settings of the previously working MBP.  Does this make sense?  Thank you.

    If I'm getting this right (and that's not certain) when you first
    transferred all of my data via thunderbolt from the unrepairable hard drive to the other MBP's hard drive.
    How did you do this and what did you copy and where (to another folder?) on the working MBP?

  • Windows's Restoration wizard is no longer recognising the WindowsImageBackup, when moved from one external HD into another one.

    Hi,
    I created WindowsImageBackup a three-month period ago and saved it on an external hard disk. Then, I have moved/cut this WindowsImageBackup from the  external hard disk was first saved on while created   into a subfolder
    on another different external hard disk. Whenever now clicked 'advanced recovery methods', then chose use ' a system image'. However, when I booted into Windows environment, I didn't see that the external drive containing image wasn't listed, although I have
    clicked on 'refresh' while external drive is plugged. When clicked on the 'advance' button, then click 'located driver if the drive isn't listed' link, I could naviaged into the external hard disk, which means it is recognised by Windows and it doesn't need
    a driver.
    NOTE: the image is for the same OS installed on my computer.
    I really want to keep many full different Windows Image Backups, then when create  Windows Image Backup, I moved it into subfolder in order the next new don't delete the older one.
    I was expecting that this is because while external HD containing image is plugged in the USB3 port, however, when I let it plugged in the USB2 port, the drive wasn't listed in the list
    A man should convert his anger and sadness into strength to continue living in this life.

    Thanks a lot,
    NOTE: system image Disc containing(old images, WindowsImageBackup1,2,3, and so on) wasn't listed/found, and not the Restoration  failed
    Let me give you this scenario:
    I have created a Windows image backup for OS partition(C) and Data partition(D). Second: I have saved the created image into an external hard disk
    Third: When the WindowImageBackup created in the external hard disk. I tried booting into Windows environment, and the wizard found the image automatically.
    Froth: I have moved the 'WidnowsImageBackup' from a partition on an external hard disk (A) into another external hard disk(B)
    Fifth: I have done some changes on the OS system(such as installing programs and so on) and data partition(such as adding data and so on)
    Fifty: I have decided to create a new WindowsImageBackup and save it into external disk 'B', but before that I have done, I must rename 'WidnowsImageBackup by  incrementing '1' after 'WidnowsImageBackup' in order ton not be overwritten.
    Sixth: I created the new 'WindowsImageBackup'
    The WindowsImageBackup  just created is recognised by Windows's resoration wizard because it wasn't moved. However, windowsImageBAckup1 isn't recognised because it wasn't saved here, however, it was pasted here from another location.
    I would like to save many full images:
    WindowsImagBackup
    windowsImageBackup1
    -------------------------2
    -------------------------3
    and so on.
    However, as I said before, when booting into Windows's restoration wizard, then clicked on 'selcte an image', I didn't find any option to search for the image.
    Yes, there is an option saying 'if you don't see your 'system image disc' listed in the image location, then you can pluge your disc and click on refresh. I have done but only the 'WindowsImagBackup' created on the same external disc was 
    found. Even those images created in same external disc, but their main folder 'WindowsImageBackup' changed into 'WindowsImageBackup1, 2, 3 and so one were not found'
    If someone wants to save many full WindowsImageBackups, then how can he be doing?
    NOTE: Although I have read in the Windows help support what is below, I when I have copied the older system images into another locations, they became unrecognised/found in the restoration Wizard:
    Keeping different versions of system images
    If you're saving your system images on an internal or external
    drive, or on CDs or DVDs, you can keep several versions of system images. On
    internal and external hard drives, older system images will be deleted when the
    drive runs out of space. To help conserve disk space, you can manually delete
    older system images. For more information, see What backup
    settings should I use to maximize my disk space?
    If you're saving your system images in a network location, you can
    only keep the most current system image for each computer. System images are
    saved in the format of drive\WindowsImageBackup\computer
    name\. If you have an existing system image for a computer and are
    creating a new one for the same computer, the new system image will overwrite
    the existing one. If you want to keep the existing system image, you can copy it
    to a different location before creating the new system image by following these
    steps:
    Navigate to the location of the system image.
    Copy the WindowsImageBackup
    folder to a new location.
