IOS 5: I want to manage app permissions for multiple Twitter accounts

I have two Twitter accounts, one personal and one for work. I want to use different apps to manage them to avoid accidental cross posting. However since I upgraded to iOS 5, any account I use in one app seems to then be added to all other apps too.
I have found the settings panel to allow different apps access to your Twitter credentials or not, but this only work for all Twitter accounts or none. I want to be able to use the phone-wide Twitter integration with my personal account, but I want to lock down my work account to only publish using one specific app. I have tried deleting my work account from the settings panel, and signing into my work account with a third party app, but even though Tweetbot has a button to 'Add account to iOS', apparently it automatically shares it anyway without me giving permission to do so.
This has already caused problems with third party apps using my Twitter log in and not asking which account I wanted to publish to (so it chose both) and I am not happy that apps which I have not explicitly given permission to are able to do this with my second account. Permissions should be able to be granted on an account basis. If you know of a way to do this, or a third party Twitter app which doesn't share your details with the rest of iOS, I would be very grateful, thanks.

I have both this and a slightly different question. I have multiple Twitter accounts on both my iOS5 and iOS6 (test) devices. i like to post tweets from various apps like the Wall Street Journal, etc. In my case, the built-in functionality simply seems to pick the first of my Twitter accounts in my list of accounts in the Settings panel, and post to that one. It would seem to make sense that there should be a user-selectable option for which account(s) should process a tweet, and it probably ought to be system-wide. No?

  • In iPad 1 ios 4 may have two ipad Apps the same from two accounts itunes

    In iPad 1 ios 4 may have two ipad Apps the same from two accounts itunes one free other paid account, hence one free App and another paid App the same App?

    If both accounts are authorised on your computer's iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer) then you can download the books from both accounts to there (download the books from one account, then sign out of it via Store > Sign Out, log in with the other account via Store > Sign In and download the books from the other account), and sync them over to the iPad's iBooks app via the Books tab.
    Or you might be able to sign out of your account on the iPad by tapping on it Settings > Store and sign in with the other account and download the books from that account - I think that it should work, but it's not something that I've tried so I'm not 100% sure that it will

  • How to back up phone with apps purchased with multiple iTunes accounts

    It's a long story, but my iPhone has apps that were purchased through multiple iTunes account. 
    Is it possible to create a backup of my phone that accounts for all of these apps?  Last time I tried backup in iTunes, it only backed up the apps purchased with that particular iTunes account, but not others.
    Should something happen to my iPhone and I need to restore/clone my phone, I want all my apps -- regardless of whose iTunes account was used to purchase them -- to be restored.
    Any quick and easy way for this?

    The backup does not include any apps. It only includes the list and arrangement of apps; which are then reloaded when you sync after restoring.

  • I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help suiting the old apple I'd because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions

    I just created an iCloud email and I want to use that email for my iTunes account as well. I need help switching the old apple ID because I do not remember anything associated with that email and I don't know the security questions or the login for that old email.

    You cannot do that.  The AppleID you used to create the iCloud account is an active primary email address.  The email address you created with the iCloud account is also an active primary email address (all Apple domain email address automatically become AppleIDs as well).  You cannot replace the primary email address on one active AppleID with the primary email address on another, active AppleID.
    You can use your iCloud email/AppleID with iTunes, but it will be a separate account, so all your previous purchases remain tied to the other AppleID you have.
    I don't understand your statement that you could not remeber your old AppleID password, as you would have had to use it to create the iCloud account in the first place (the first step of creating the iCloud account required you to login with your existing AppleID and password)?

  • What are my options if I do not want to use App Store for distribution of my Enterprise App?

    We are developing an App that is tailormade for a limited number of our customers only. The app is for free.
    Currently we ship it through the App Store but the main issue is that the reaction times are too high. If we need to provide a fix it has to be pushed to our clients ASAP without having to wait for review.
    If we sign up for an Enterprise Dev licence, we get 5000 installations "for free". The questions that arise:
    Is it allowed to use those licences to distribute the app to customers or can they be used for our own employees only?
    How are the 5000 devices managed? Do we have to keep track of all of them, create new provisioning profiled and need to rebuild the app and sign it with a new certificate everytime a device gets added/removed?
    I found that there is way for third party software disttribution: http://www.apple.com/business/vpp/
    It has a dead link that would probably show a way to deploy apps the way we want it: https://developer.apple.com/appstore/resources/volume/
    What I' really looking for in short:
    I can fix the app, make a new build and upload that to one of our servers.
    Our servers ensure that only selected users can access the app installation bundle.
    Who ever gains access to the bundle should be able to install it, no matter if his device has been "registered" in some way or not.
    It is okay if the users will have to install a provisioning profile to their devices, as long as that profile is "dynamic", meaning that nobody has to add or remove devices manually.
    Can somebody comment if there is a solution for that?
    Thanks
    René

    If you are in the Enterprise program, apps can be distributed only to that company's employees. If you want to distribute to customers in general, you would have to be a member of the normal iOS developer program and either use ad-hoc distribution for up to 100 users, or go through the App Store. There are no other options I'm aware of, though you can contact Apple Developer Support through your membership resources and ask.
    Regards.

  • Error message: There is a problem accessing one or more files in your iPhoto library. Do you want iPhoto to repair permissions for this library for you?

    I have been using iPhoto for years.  Today when I tried to upload pictures from camera, I received the above error message.  I select "Repair", enter my password, and then a message "iPhoto was unable to repair permissions for the library" appears. I select "Quit" and it closes iPhoto.  Quit is the only option.  What has happened?  I have tried to access the photos via other avenues such as uploading to gmail, and the photos load fine.  I have about 28,000 photos.
    I do not know what version of iPhoto I am using as I am unable to access the software.  I have a iMac OS X (10.7.5).  What should I do?

    Select the iPhoto application in the Applications folder and type Command+i to bring up its Info Window. There will tell the version number. If it's iPhoto 9 or later apply the two fixes below in order as needed: 
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Four Users, One Mac - Want all to have permissions for all files

    Our family shares an imac on 10.6.
    I want to set the machine up so all for users have access to all files.
    Is this as simple as going to Get Info for the Macintosh HD and changing permissions for everybody to read and write and then choosing the "for all enclosed..."
    Simple?
    Problems down the road?

    If you are using v7 of iPhoto them working from the Users/Shared folder will not work unless you want to get busy changing ACLs in the Terminal.
    What you mean by 'share'.
    If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
    If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc. The problem here is that OS X works very hard to keep your data safe and secure from the other users. You're trying to beat what's built in to the system. So, to beat the system
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts
    Move the iPhoto Library Folder to an external HD set to ignore permissions. You could also use a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.
    In each account in turn: Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting dialogue, select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new library location. From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.
    Lastly: This method seems a little clunky at first, but works very well. Most importantly, it uses the System to do the job for you.
    Create a new Account on your Mac, call it Media. Create an iPhoto Library there. (BTW: This will work for iTunes too.)
    Enable Sharing on the Library:(Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other accounts. In those accounts, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. The Library will appear in the other source pane.
    This means that both users will be able to see the pics. If you want to use a pic then simply drag it from the shared Library to your own in the iPhoto Window. This means that each user can have their own edits.
    If you want to add photos to the Library: Log into the Media account for that purpose.
    To make it all seamless: Set your Mac to log into the Media Account automatically. Set iPhoto to launch on log-in. Then switch to your own account using Fast User Switching.
    Net result: a Library that's permanently available to all users but also protected. Each user can have their own versions of the pics if they want.
    No partitioning, no permissions issues. Uses no extra disk space. What's not to like?

  • Remote Desktop Service Manager - configure permissions for Remote Desktop Users to Send Message, Disconnect, Logoff

    Hello, dear colleagues.
    We are using Windows Server 2012 R2 as Remote Desktop Server. Also use Windows Server 2008 R2 with Remote Desktop Service Manager to control RDS user sessions (Send Message, Disconnect, Logoff, Query Info). 
    Send Message, Disconnect, Logoff options works only for users in Administrators group.
    I can't to configure permissions for Remote Desktop Users, specific user or AD group. 
    To set permissions I'm running RDS Host Configuration on Windows Server 2008 R2 and connect to Windows Server 2012 R2. Then double-click
    RDP-Tcp, Security tab, add specific user account , AD group or configure
    advanced permissions
    for Remote Desktop Users.  
    But, as I sad above, these options works only for users in Administrators group. How to make it work for Remote Desktop Users or specific user, AD group?
    Thanks.
    P.S. If move specific user from Remote Desktop Users group to Administrators group on
    Windows Server 2012 R2 - it works. 

    Hi,
    You can prevent administrators from changing the permissions for a connection by applying the
    Do not allow local administrators to customize permissions Group Policy setting. 
    This Group Policy setting is located in Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Security
    Apart there is one command with which you can set the permission for that check the related
    article. Additionally checkthis
    thread for more detail.
    Hope it helps!
    Thanks.

  • Managing contacts for multiple email accounts

    I am (as of yesterday) a convert from a Blackberry to the iPhone 4s (IOS 5.0.1) (32GB)
    I have had iTune (10.5) on my computer for a long time, but strictl to manage an iPod for email accounts - no contacts or calendars involved. And I have never played with iCloud before.
    When I purchased my iPhone at BestBuy, they copied my BB contacts to my iPhone local contacts.
    FWIW, on my BB, I used BB Desktop Manager to synchronize selected Outlook contacts to my BB.
       Outlook, in turn, was used to talk to Exchange on my corporate network.
    What I would like to do is a follows:
    a)     Use Exchange, Gmail and Yahoo email all come to my iPhone.  This is already being done.
    b)     Using iTunes (or whatever) sychronize selected Outlook contacts to my iPhone
                  I am assuming this is different than using the iPhone to synchronize Exchange contacts via Push.  And I don't want to sync all 5K Exchange contacts with my iPhone, just the ~500 selected contacts in Outlook.  All togethter there are about 1000 contacts in Outlook, 500 of which were marked with a sync category.
    c)     Bonus points if I could take my Gmail and Yahoo contacts (all personal and mostly not in Outlook and certainly not in Exchange) and get them synched to my iPhone as well.
                 I noted that there was an option to synch Yahoo with the phone and keep (at the risk of duplicates) local contacts.  I did not see such an option for Gmail.  What I did see was that there was an option to call Gmail an Exchange Account, and then synch contacts; but only if I really didn't have a Microsoft Exchange account defined, which I do.
    How, if at all would iCloud fit into this picture

    I recently saw news of an app to enable this, I think. The workflow was something like you open up the app, select a signature, then hit a button and it takes you to Mail and pre-pastes the signature into a new mail message. So I don't think it would work for replies.
    I'm afraid I have no idea where I saw it discussed. Search the App Store?

  • Ios 8 bug: keychain autofill doesn't work for multiple accounts on the same website

    WIth the IOS 8 update I have an issue. I have, for my job, to check several and different accesses on the same website. The autofill function is now proposing just the last entered user-password, even if all the credentials are regularly stored in the keychain. Same behavior on my ipad air and my iphone.
    Has anyone the same problem?
    THanks in advance for your help

    An update. If I:
    Enroll a Windows Surface using a local admin account
    Request to install an app from a local standard account it appears stuck on Installing...
    Log back in as the local admin account and wait, the app appears.
    Questions:
    Can the same app be installed into multiple local accounts on the same device? It doesn't look like it.
    Is the local account used when the device is enrolled the only local account that will install Intune apps?
