Is it possible to have an application open two or more times on a my Mac

(ie MYOB)? My mac is Mac OS X ver 10.5.8. Its not possible to open more than one file at a time with MYOB unless you open the application again. This is possible with windows, but I am finding it a bit difficult with Mac. Any help with this matter would be deeply appreciated.

Perhaps,
Install the application again, in a different location. This will give you two application icons to run. This used to work in older Mac OS's.

  • Is it possible to have 2 profiles open at the same time? instead of having to open and close firefox everytime you want to switch.

    I have several profiles and was wondering if it is possible to have more then one open at the same time? At the moment I am having to close the current firefox browser to open up a different profile.

    See these support articles. <br />

  • Is it possible to have cs5 Bridge open cs4 ai files actually in cs4 rather than opening them in cs5

    I recently upgraded from mac cs4 to cs5.5. Due to a bug? with cs5 ai illustrator 'Pixel Preview' won't show 1 bit tiff files as it did in cs4 (the workaround is time consuming/wasting). This is a problem for me as most of my files contain them, GGrrrr. Is it possible to have cs5 Bridge open cs4 ai files actually in cs4 rather than opening them in cs5?

    Is it possible to have cs5 Bridge open cs4 ai files actually in cs4 rather than opening them in cs5?
    Yes, either set the file type association in Bridge prefs for 'ai' at CS4. But it seems somewhat difficult when having newer versions, sometimes whatever pref settings in Bridge or Finder/get info/ open with/you try it keeps opening in the latest version.
    In that case either drag and drop the files on the CS4 icon in the dock or with right click mouse menu choose open with and select illustrator CS4.
    Although you can only have one version of Bridge open at the time you can have the other suite applications from different version open at the same time.

    Mac OS X Mountain Lion supports multitasking like cbs20 mentioned. Just like MS Windows just press alt+tab to switch to whatever applications you have open.
    Actually it isn't Alt-Tab on OS X, it's Command-Tab to use the Application Switcher.
    Also, Control+ left/right arrow key will switch spaces if that's what's desired.

    Create a play list that you wish to burn. Select playlist, the file from main menu which gives to an option to burn the playlist. A pop up box appears allowing you to select burn speed and disc format.

    How to enable private mode from commandline, with an URL.
    I am a software dev and I wish to have my application open links in Firefox.
    Using ShellExecute(), i can do with with commandlines like:
    firefox.exe http://support.mozilla.org
    But I also want the option to open the link in private mode.
    I am able to start firefox in private mode by doing this:
    firefox.exe -private
    However, if I add a link to the command line
    firefox.exe -private http://support.mozilla.org
    I get strange results.
    If firefox is not running, it launches 2 copies of the application.
    One that opens in private mode and the other opens in normal mode and goes to the URL specified.
    If firefox is already running, it just opens the URL in a new tab.
    No private mode instance is launched.
    Am I using the command-line syntax incorrectly?

    It will never work if Firefox is already running as Firefox will use the already opened Firefox instance.<br />
    In that case only using a separate profile will work.
    You can try to specify the -url switch as well.
    *firefox.exe -private -url http://support.mozilla<i></i>.org
    You can also look at the -new-tab switch.
    *firefox.exe -private -new-tab http://support.mozilla<i></i>.org

    Thanks. I don't know why it wouldn't just go back there when I tried putting it back? I didn't change anything, so I assumed the new "default" was over on the left. Glad it was a simple solution after all.

  • Is it possible to have iMovie HD and iMovie HD 6 installed on the same Mac

    While I like some of the video editing features of iMovie HD 6, the problems with the Ken Burns Effect have killed my ability to create slideshows with iMovie. This worked just fine in iMovie HD (version 5.x). Is it possible to have both applications installed on my iMac and run one for slideshow production and the other for video production?
    I searched and could not find a thread that addressed this issue. If there is one, the URL will be greatly appreciated.

    Catspaw,
    Thank you. I should have thought of this, as I am running iMovie 8 and iMovie HD 6 on an Intel iMac at work. When I installed iMovie HD 6 onto this system (I'm not a fan of the latest incarnation of iMovie), it was put into a "previous version" folder. Since my G4 iMac already has been upgraded to iMovie HD 6, I'll just put iMovie HD 6 into a folder (maybe label it as the "latest version") and then install iMovie HD 5.
    Thank you for the insight on the trash emptying messing with the re-editing of photos. If I start a new project using the same photos from iPhoto (I use the media browser within HD 6 to select my photos in my iPhoto library) and never empty the trash until the project is complete, will the problem not appear? Or, does some magic thing tag my iPhotos so that I have to reimport them into iPhoto before using them again in iMovie HD 6?

  • Users cannot have iPhoto 11 open at the same time

    I am having the problem that if both my Wife and I are logged in, we cannot both have iPhoto 11 open at the same time. We have separate libraries, so it's not a library sharing issue. I thought it might be a permission issue, so I:
    1)copied both libraries to an external Fat32 drive to get rid of the permissions,
    2)then copied them back to the Mac,
    still could not open my iPhoto if she had hers open and vice versa.
    I wanted to eliminate all possible permission problem possibilities, so I:
    1)re-formated the mac,
    2)and did a fresh install of 10.6 off the retail DVD,
    3)applied all updates,
    4)and installed iLife 11 off the retail DVD.
    I then just opened iPhoto under her account, created a new library, then tried the same under my account, and it still would not open. I just get the grey window with a pin wheel for hours.

    Dear, you're not alone.
    i've also open a topic on this problem. :

  • How can i have to windows open at the same time

    i have to applications open and i want them on the same window at the same time but these little triangles show up and only allow me to have one open on my screen, i was able to before however. How can i change this?

    Open the first website you want and then click on "file" and then on "new window." Another window will appear so now you have 2 windows on your screen. Reduce the two windows so that they both fit on your screen. Now click on the edge of either window and then on the book mark of the website you want and that website will appear in that window, and do the same thing on the other window for a different book mark, OR type in a different website name in each of the windows and you will get those websites in the respective windows.
    I know...it seems so easy, but I had to ask someone else how to do it too !

  • I want to have 2 windows open at the same time using Windows7

    Using any application, I want to have 2 windows open at the same time - 1 excel sheet & 1 Word document, or 2 diff pages from Blackboard, or email & Blackboard. How do I do this. Multiple tabs show, but only one will display

    Are you saying that you can't open a new window using {Ctrl + N} or with File > New Window?
    If so, something added to Firefox is blocking the opening of new windows, and you need to do a little troubleshooting to discover what is causing that fault.
    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Is it possible to have 2 threads running at the same time?

    Is it possible to have 2 threads running at the same time at different times eg 1 repeats every 20 miliseconds and the other 40 for example. Also could you have 2 run() methods in one script, in one file? If so how? Help soon would be appreciated. Thanks.

  • Can I have 2 browsers open at the same time

    I heard from my friend that I cannot have 2 browsers open at the same time. He said that it will damage the computer. I have an iMac with the intel chip. I do somethings online that I need 2 browsers open for long periods of time. Is this okay?

    Yes of course you can. I have run Safari, Firefox, Chrome and Opera simultaneously.

  • How can I have 2 webpages open at the same time?

    With my previous IP I could have 2 websites open at the same time, useful when making comparisons. I'm sure there must be a way to do this with Firefox but I can't find it.
