Is it possible to share the same iCal on two MAC users?

Please help me. Is it possible for me to share the same iCal on two different MAC users? I know that you can sync it to an ipod or iphone, but can you share it on the same MAC with another user?
If anyone knows, please tell me! Thank you!

I think the easiest way to share calendars between the two users on the same Mac is by using Google Calendars/Calaboration.
(http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=99358#ical)
After following the instructions in the link, export your iCal calendar and import it into the new Google Calendar. All events will appear in the new Google calendar which you can see in iCal or gmail. Set this up with the same google account information used when configuring the first user account and both users will be able to write and/or remove events in the calendar using iCal.
Hope this helps.

Is it possible to use the same Switch for two different clusters.

Yes. Technically there will not be any conflict as long as the private addresses used by the 2 clusters do not collide, and provided that the switch's port capacity and bandwidth will not be exceeded.
Your NA (netadmin) can also configure the switch to separate the 2 Interconnects from one another (called partitioning when using Infiniband) - if the switch supports such features.
A major consideration is not to make the switch, public. That typically cause a range of problems and can have a serious impact on an Interconnect. But using 2 private networks on the same infrastructure should not have the same problems - if configured and implemented correctly.

How to handle an update of the same record from two different user JSP

how do you handle an update of the same record from two different users in JSP... if one person updates the record from one drop downs should be updated as well.. is the possible.

I'm not sure whether I understand your question. If one user changes a record then you would like other users to see those changes. Normally those changes will be visible to other users when they refresh their browser, after the first user has committed changes to the record. I you want to be sure that the same row isn't updated at the same time by to different user, you need to configure some locking (pessimistic locking) - this depends of what technology you use. In EJB3 pessimistic locking is performed by adding a version to every entity object. If you are using ADF, the framework is able to handle either pessimistic or even optimistic locking.
If you want the changed row to be updated in other users browsers without any user interaction by these users, you should take a look at Reverse Ajax (ex. DWR http://ajaxian.com/archives/reverse-ajax-with-dwr) - or Ajax in general. But you will never get a realtime solution, where changes is visible in other users browsers right after each record update.

Usually, if two users try to update the same row at the same time, you want the first to commit to succeed, and when the second commits, they should fail with the error that the row was being concurrently updated. They you may want to show them the new row values and give them the opportunity to merge their values with the new row values...
How can you achieve this? Google optimistic locking.

How can I have the same environment on two macs on is a macbook pro and the other a Mac mini

How can I have the same environment on two macs on is a macbook pro and the other a Mac mini ?

Forget trying to use iCloud for this - it won't do what you want. iCloud syncs certain data like contacts and events, but it doesn't sync "environments" on computers.

All users share the same iCal

I want all the users on my iMac to share the same Calendar. How do I do it?

Here's how to share iCal calendars among multiple users on a single Mac.
What you need to do is to move the iCal folder to a shared folder that is accessible to all users and then replace the iCal folder in each user's library folder with a "symbolic link' to the shared iCal folder. The symbolic link looks like an "alias", but if you try this using "aliases" to the shared iCal folder it will not work (trust me). You can create symbolic links using the Terminal, but I have no idea how, and the idea of using the Terminal scares me. The easiest way that I know of to create a symbolic link is with a shareware application called Cocktail. It allows you to do a number of different things including System Maintenance, Network Optimization, etc. It took me a while to remember how to do this; I originally found the information in the Discussions when iCal was first released, but apparently none of those original postings are listed in the forums anymore.
Here's how to do it (you must have Administrator privileges):
First locate your iCal folder (your user name > Library > Application Support > iCal) and make a copy of it (Finder > File > Duplicate). Drag the copy to your Desktop until you're sure iCal is being shared between users.
Next move the original iCal folder into a Shared folder in the Users folder (Hard Disk > Users > Shared > iCal). To make sure all users can access the information, select the Shared folder, choose File > Get Info, click the little Lock icon, then under "Ownership & Permissions -> Details" make sure that the "Owner" is "System", "Group" is "Wheel" and "Access" for Owner, Group and Others is "Read & Write". Do the same with the iCal folder within the Shared folder, but this time, under "Ownership & Permissions -> Details" make sure that the "Owner" is "your user name", "Group" is "Staff" and "Access" for Owner, Group and Others is "Read & Write" and click the "Apply to Enclosed Items" button. I basing this information on what the Ownership & Permissions are for each of the folders in my system.
Open Cocktail (I'm using version 3.6.5). Once the app is open (you must enter an administrator's user name and password) click on the "Files" button, then click on the "Links" button. Where it says "Create Symbolic Link" click on the "Choose" button. Navigate to the iCal folder (Hard Disk > Users > Shared > iCal) and click "Choose" again. In the "Save As" box that appears enter "iCal", then navigate to the Application Support folder in your Home folder (your user name > Library > Application Support) and click "Save". Quit Cocktail and open iCal. You should see all of your calendars as you did before.
Log in under each additional User, move that User's iCal folder (user name > Library > Application Support > iCal) onto the Desktop, then create another Symbolic Link to replace it, using Cocktail as described above. In each case you should see the same calendar information as when you were logged in under your user name. As a test, add a New Event or To Do in iCal under one user, log out and back in under another user and you should see the changes when you open iCal.
Once everything appears to be working, you can delete the iCal folders from each User's Desktop.
As an additional maintenance measure, use Disk Utility to repair Disk Permissions.
Unfortunately, if each User has his/her own calendars in iCal they will not be in the shared calendars. Only the calendars in the first iCal folder used to set up the shared folder will be available and I don't know of any way to merge or combine the other user's calendars into one.
Hope this helps and good luck!

Is it possible to have many users share the same account folder in HD Users?

Hi!
New guy here.
I'm trying to set up somekind of Schedule for me to be able to use my mac only in the morning and only in the evening.
Parental control seems to be able to allow me to do that if i set up two different accounts and assign time limits and schedules for each one. But the problem is that i need to run some programs on both accounts and keeping the same settings throughout both accounts. Is like if i wanted to have one single account but split in two different users.
Any help on this? Thanks in advance!

You have two accounts and you can enable fast user switching to quickly switch between active accounts.
Any program installed in the Applications folder is global, so either user can open the same program into memory (I think, haven't been confirmed, don't see why not) as it just copies it into memory.
However the users setting for each program is placed in the users account folder. Say for instance the programs preferences.
You can't run two instances of the program at the same time, nor will they continue running when you switch out of a user account, it just keeps it in memory.
The Users/Shared folder is just that, it's global file holding account to share when switching between user accounts, however if the file is already open on one user, it's not going to open for the other.
If you want to pernamently drop files into antother user account, you use the Public > Dropbox and it's one way like a mailbox, stick it in and only the other account can access it.
Hope this assists.
Would help to know why, perhaps there is a better solution.

How do you share the same library across different mac accounts on same computer?

IPhoto 11 - Is it possible to have the same library on two machines

I have a replacement imac 27 on which after three weeks of hard work I have finally got 40k of photos in but I have also just purchased a 6 months old macbook pro. As I will use the mbp when away in the motorhome, I would like to be able to keep the libraries the same.
My thoughts are these, Presently the size of the library is 24.27GB and I have a 32GB cruzer usb flash pen. If I copy the library to this, and then use it to import the library - both the same now.... but away for 6 months or so, and libraries now different..... what happens, if I do the same in reverse?
Or I suppose... I could just MOVE the library to the usb pen - and then move it to the MBP and back again.... would that be better.
My concern then comes when the library is too big for the usb pen.
OR is there another way. I have seen mention of an iphoto sync programme, does anyone use this and does it work? (It is not Apple obviously, it is Haystock Software).
Really appreciate some thoughts as I have a 1-2-1 booked for Tues 8th, and I can't take the imac with me, but I want to take the MBP... as I have a lot of questions.
Carol

Thank you! Would I be better off buying the full version rather than just the free download?
THat depends on what you want to do - if you need the paid version features thenyou need the paid version - if you do not then there is no reason - see their web page to see the features - iPhoto Library Manager - http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/ -
What is your opinion of Aperture?
Higher end than iPhoto - quiet a bit harder to learn
IF I purchased that, would I still use this other program?
Again it depends on what you want to do - I believe that IPLM has an Aperture version - again check their web site for information
From what I've seen, I'm ready to step up to Aperture. I have thousands of photos and have been exporting them to my desktop and then importing them to Photoshop Elements to 'work with them'. It looks to me like Aperture would do away with that troublesome step.
Or learn to use iPhoto - any photo editor (including Photoshop Elements) and be fully integrated into an iPhoto workflow by making it the external editor in the iPhoto preferences - iPhoto has the capability to directly interface with any external editor - simply go to the iPhoto preferences (iPhoto menu ==> preferences ==> General and set the Edit photo option to in external editor - select the desired external editor and you are set - now when you edit photos they are sent to the selected external editor and when you are finished editing you save (not save as) and the edited photo is returned to iPhoto, the original is maintained in iPhoto and the iPhoto database is correctly updated.
If you want the option of editing in either iPhoto or the external editor after selecting your external editor simply set the edit in back to main window - now when you right click (control Click) on a photo you will get a menu which allows you to select either. - this feature may or may not be available in Aperture and it may work differently - I do not use Aperture

How do I have the same "events" on two Macs?

I have the "family pack" and just installed on both Macs. I have the same exact pictures on both Macs. I organized all the events on one Mac and now I would like to have the same events on the second Mac.
On the previous version of iPhoto, I simply would copy com.apple.iPhoto.plist from the first Mac and copy it to the next Mac. Then all my preferences (e.g., file names, roll names, etc.) would match. This method does not seem to work on iPhoto 08.
Any suggestions?

John:
You could use iPhoto Library Manager and copy the events from one library to another like this. The demo shows an event being copies but it works the same for albums.
You'll need to connect the Macs so you have access to the libraries and then IPLM will do the job.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Sharing the same data on two macs

Hello, I have two Macs and would like to keep the same data on each laptop. I don't think iSync is the tool for the job. Can anybody out there advise of an easy affordable method of ensuring both my machines are sharing the same data; itunes, photo's, files, etc.
Many thanks.

Using the same photos on two Macs with iPhoto'09

Hi there,
I took a few hundred of photos during my vacation and imported them into iPhoto on my MacBook Pro (10.6.1). Now I would like to have these pictures on my MacPro, too - but all the photoinfos, places etc. should be preserved. How can I do that? Does the "export"-command work? I took the photos in RAW and would like to export them in RAW.
Thanks for any advice,
Stefan

The only way to do this is to link the two Macs together and use iPhoto Library Manager to move the files plus the associated metadata and versions between Libraries.
If you want to export the Raw files then you will not get the Metadata You have added in iPhoto. To get to the Raw you'll need to export the Kind as Original, and this is not part of the Original file.

Share the same adressbook

Hello!
Is it possible to share the same adressbook (group) with different iCloud accounts? I would like to share a group in my adressbook with my wife!
The calender has this beatiful option to share specific calenders!

For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
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.
Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder
(You can also use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) 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.

Syncing multiple iphones to the same imac and sharing the same ical

I have 3 iphones in my household. is there a way to sync all of these to share the same ical?

Yes.
There is no device limit for the number of iPods and/or iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer. Each iPhone can be synced with iCal and the Address Book under the same computer login account. Each iPhone can have its own sync preferences with iTunes and iTunes will maintain a separate backup for each iPhone, which will be updated for each iPhone as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
