Iphoto and multiple accounts on same computer

I have two accounts/ users on my mac and each has an extensive iphoto library. I purchased iphoto Library Manager as suggesed. The problem is that when I am logged into Account A it cannot see the library in account B. I created a new library and merged account/user B photo library but when logged into Account A it still does not see the default library for B or the newly created library. I'm going in circles and racing the clock to back up and prior to convertingsystem to Lion by end of June. Any help out their?

Yes I want to merge them. I went to account B moved new library to Users shared and then went back to account A and clicked on harddrive symbol/ users/shared and I do not see it. I do see the two accounts listed separately. This all started by combining office and home computer into one.

Multiple Accounts On Same Computer

Ok my brother and I are now going to use the same computer for our iTunes libraries since we found out you can have more than one. I was wondering if we could also have both of our accounts on here so I can buy things on mine and him on his. Any help is appriciated.

In addition to ed2345's excellent advice, you also might want to set your preferences to used a shared folder for the music, so you don't have duplicates of the same song files on one hard drive.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1203
Make sure you do what the section *To listen to another account's music files* says:
+Deselect the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library file" option.+
Also, since itunes doesn't have a watch folder feature like Windows Media Player does,
+When another user of the computer has imported new music from CD, repeat steps 6 through 8 to add the music to your library.+

Is it possible to keep both iPhoto and Aperture on the same Mac

I would like to use both IPhoto (for day by day pictures) and Aperture (for pictures made with my SLR in Raw format).
Is anybody able to advice me about this opportunity?

You can keep both Applications (iPhoto and Aperture) on the same computer and separate libraries for iPhoto and Aperture; images from both libraries will/should be available in other Applications from the Media Browser. In the long run, after you get accustomed to working Aperture, you will find it more convenient to migrate all your images to Aperture. Aperture has the more efficient storage strategy, you need less disk space to store multiple versions of the same image in Aperture than in iPhoto, and Aperture is the more versatile tool.
It is easy to migrate iPhoto libraries to Aperture, but that is a one way road, if you want to export back to iPhoto, you can export your images, but not all of your library structure.

I have 3 i phones. Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

I have 3 i phones. Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

My daughter and I both have iphones. I created an account (not separate itunes) for her on my computer so she could sync her phone/itunes but not have it interfere with mine since we have WAY different taste in music. Creating a different computer profile should work if you have separate itunes accounts, too.
If you all use the same itunes account, you can turn on Home Sharing. That way you can all download the same content without having to pay for it again. Not sure how or if that works with separate itunes accounts.
Hope that helps!

Photoshop Elements 11 installed on Mac Mini OS X 10.9.5. Application running successfully on bot main user and administrative accounts for considerable time with no warning messages. When established a new user account on same computer and try to call up

Photoshop Elements 11 installed on Mac Mini OS X 10.9.5. Application running successfully on bot main user and administrative accounts for considerable time with no warning messages. When established a new user account on same computer and try to call up elements receive message “Some ot the application components are missing from the Application directory. Please reinstall the application.” How do I correct this problem without disturbing application in main user account?

Brooks lansing if you create a new Administrator account does the same issue occur? If so then it is likely that there is a file permission failure and file permissions have been set for the existing Users instead of the groups they belong to.
Have you removed and reinstalled Photoshop Elements 11? This may reset the file permissions to the correct state to allow it to work under new accounts.

Can I authorize multiple accounts on one computer?

Can I authorize multiple accounts on one computer?

Unfortunately you can't do the logical and convenient thing of authorizing a computer with multiple Adobe IDs that are active simultaneously.
You can authorize accounts from different vendors; one account per vendor.
If you have multiple operating system users set up on the computer, you can register different OS users as different Adobe Account users.

I already provided my 3 digit CVV number but Itunes again need to confirm the code whereas on my Office Computer I am purchasing Apps on Itunes without verifying my billing information again and again except once at the time of creation of account.

Phase 3:
Download a free content on to get recognized in iTunes.
To ensure your account is functioning, try downloading a free item from the iTunes Store. To do this, navigate to the iTunes Store main page by clicking the Home icon near the upper-left corner of the window. Scroll down and click the "FREE ON iTunes" link near the bottom of the main page, then select an item to download.
After you are able to download the free App try updating the billing information as usual.

Sharing Itunes music between accounts on same computer

Hi
Is it possible to share Itunes music library between three accounts on same computer so if my wife logs into her account she can see my music library

This should help:
iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
Note that when it says "publicly accessible location", it needs to be a place where everyone has read and write access. The most common such place is the Shared folder in the Users folder, but you can place the music elsewhere if you change the access permissions manually (don't start tinkering with permissions unless you're confident you know what you're doing and can reverse things if they get messed up).
Regards.

Mini ipod and ipod on the same computer

I have a 40GB ipod on a Windows XP PC. My brother just received an ipod mini for Christmas. It won't allow us to install ipod mini software without unistalling previously installed itunes software. If we uninstall itunes, will it delete all the songs already on it? If not, is there any way to use an ipod mini and ipod on the same computer, with different itunes libraries. We do have seperate user accounts.
Windows XP

iPods come pre-formatted for Mac, so you will need to format it for Windows.
See this article to verify its format (if desired): How to determine iPod's hard disk format.
Make sure that you have the latest iPod Updater software
Then, make sure that the iPod is fully charged.
- Download the Update Installer to your PC (do not run it from the web site).
- Place the file on the Desktop, or in a Folder you can remember/find.
- You also need to install the Updater software by double-clicking on the file that downloads.
- After you install the Updater to your PC, reboot your computer.
- After rebooting, run the Updater.
--- Go to: Start ==> Programs ==> iPod.
- It should initialize then ask you to connect an iPod.
- Connect the iPod when asked (not before) and you should have two options available: Update or Restore.
--- Choose the Update option and it will update your iPod's firmware to the latest version.
--- Choose the Restore option and it will update your iPod's firmware to the latest version and format (erase) your iPod's hard drive.
Most of the current minis are the 2nd gen models. They do not need to be connected to an AC adaptor to complete the process. As long as you gave the mini a good several hours of charging before you format it for Windows, you should be good to continue. If your PC delivers enough power to charge the mini. no other power source is required (but others can work if connected).

Multiple accounts with same email

I have multiple accounts with same email
The one that has all my contacts is the one attached to FB but for some odd reason I can no longer access this specific account
When I try to reset my password, it only keeps asking me to change my FB password
Once I try logging in on Skype, it keeps asking my FB to connect to the other 2 Skype accounts, completely diffente usernames
I am only interested in the one that originally connected to my FB as it has all my contacts
As my other 2 accounts are my old Skype accounts and have my old contacts from years ago

Actually this morning I was able to log on the account from an iPad with no fuss but the pc refuses to sign in^^^!???! "Skype couldn't connect" - What is going on???
I also found out that I could sign in via a browser but not via skype program... So I uninstalled it and installed it again and it's working now...
I have now changed the email so I don't have 3 accounts with the same primary email as Skype seems to not being able to handle multiple accounts with same email!!!

I'm going to give my old iPad to my granddaughter, I want to create an account for her, but I want to do it on my computer so there are no worries about who is spending credits for that account. Don't know how this will work, or if its possible to two iTunes libraries.
Okay.
She's going to use your computer to sync with iTunes.
Create an new computer login on your computer for her. This will keep her stuff separate and she won't be able to mess with any of your info.
Log into her computer account.
Launch iTunes.
Create a new iTunes account for her. See this -> http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2731
You can enter a credit card to create the account then delete the CC info. Or you can use an iTunes gift card and she can fund the account with gift cards instead of using a CC to make purchases. This is an easy way to control spending.
on the iPad, go to Settings > iMessage > Off.
Then Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content & settings.
Once it finishes, plug in the iPad, select it in iTunes and this will set it up as a new device. Enter all your granddaughter's info.
When she wants to sync her iPad or use iTunes, she needs to log into your computer with her account.
Then the iTunes library she uses will be only hers.

Lion has dropped public files and airdrop only works over wifi. How do I share files between two accounts on same computer?

I found and turned on "system preferences / file sharing" but also had to go to Finder preferences and select show "Hard Disks" to be able to see other users public folder.
