Is there a quick way to get permission to read and write all files betweem my macs on my own ethernet network?

I have a desktop,mini(os10.5.8)and macbook pro(os10.7.2)
etherneted together.
I'd like to be able to read/write files without having to get permission
in 'get info' each time..
Is there an easy way do that?
thanks

Hello,
I have the same question, but I would also like to add:
How can I create a new user on my laptop with IDENTICAL rights to all files as my main user? Like above, without having to go in and change the info.
Thank you
MacBook Pro with Lion

When looking at my "About This Mac" it says that I have 60gb of space left on my hard drive, but when I go into finder to find all of these files there is not 300gb worth in anything I search, even searching, "All files on the Mac". Help!?

It says I have over 150 gigs of video on my hard drive. But I have gone through and deleted almost all of what shows up, still it says there is roughly the same amount on the hard drive. Where are these files? I want to delete them so I can have my hard drive clear.
Thanks for your help guys!

Quote from the article.
Time Machine in OS X Lion includes a new feature called "local snapshots" that keeps copies of files you create, modify or delete on your internal disk. Local snapshots compliment regular Time Machine backups (that are stored on your external disk or Time Capsule) giving you a "safety net" for times when you might be away from your external backup disk or Time Capsule and accidentally delete a file.
So what makes a notebook any different then a desktop, other then with a desktop you might have your tm backup drive connected all the time.
The object here is to not indiscriminately delete files you need or want to keep. I personally have never deleted a file I wanted to keep.
In essence a backup is for catastrophic failure of your system. So it can be restored once that failure has been fixed. Not because you go in willy nilly and start deleting files.

I I have a 1 TG external drive that is formatted to Windows NTFS and is read only, how do i get it to read and write on my Mac OS X 10.6.3?

Install software such as Paragon NTFS, or reformat it as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) or FAT32. Mac OS X 10.6.5 and newer can also read and write exFAT partitions.

HT2357 I accidently deleted all of my updates and they're not coming back. Is there any quick way to get these updates active again?

I accidentally deleted all of my updates and they're not coming back. I haven't been able to make any updates since 2006. I have a log of my past updates but I cannot seem to get them active again. Is there any easy way to get these updates active again?
This was a while ago back in 2006 but from what I can remember I actually deleted/permanently removed these updates from my list of updates. I tried keeping all the updates except for two that I did not need and somehow deleted all of the updates I wanted to keep. I've tried reseting my ignored updates but that does not bring back the updates. If i delete the two that I originally attempted to remove - it only brings those two back. I hope there is still some way to get these updates back. I appreciate any help that anyone is able to give me.
Thanks!

Is there a quick way to get email addresses from Mail into Address Book?

I would like to collect the email addresses that pop up when I start to type email addresses into the "To" area and transfer them into my Address Book, but have no idea where they are stored. Is this possible and if so is there a quick way to do it.
Thank you

I think I figured it out... I went into Apple Mail > Window > Previous Recipients and now im adding the ones not in my address book into my address book.
It seems relatively easy... Apple, this is why I love you.

How do I set an external HD permission to read AND write?

I received an iMac for Christmas and need a little help. I have a 2TB external HD that contains .shn and .flac files of GD concerts (and other music). I managed to find Cog that will play them...but what I want to do is download them and move them upon completion to the external HD. I can not do this because the HD is read only. I can move stuff to a SD card because it is read and write. I assume when I change the permission I will be able to move the folder of a show to the HD as well. Surely this is simple... Thank You and sorry for the dumb question!

Your external hard drive is likely NTFS formatted for use with a PC.
OSX can read but cannot write to NTFS formatted volumes. You can install software that allows writing to a NTFS drive, as Niel has suggested, or you can reformat your external drive using Disk Utility for use with your Mac.
If you decide to reformat your drive for Mac use, copy your data off to another drive before you proceed.

Is there a quick way to turn Cellular Data on and off?

I just sent this suggestion in to Apple:
I have limited data on my Iphone 4s, well 2gb and I try to use my wifi as much as possible while home especially. I don't know the technical term for it, but when you swipe up from the bottom of the phone and : wifi, airplane mode, bluetooth, do not disturb comes up to quickly turn those functions on and off wouldn't it make more sense to replace airplane mode with cellular data? That way we can quickly access and turn cellular data on and off instead of going through the settings, cellular data on/off. Just thought this would make our lives easier and hope you will consider it on your next update.
Does anyone know if I have the cellular data turned on, but the WIFI is being used first, if that still uses up my Cellular data? I think I know enough that if the "verizon" is in the upper left corner that the wifi is being used through my router but then if my 3G is displayed than I'm going through my cellular data. Sorry, I'm new to the Iphone scene so I'm still learning.
Ok, thanks in advance.

Actually, all the display of Verizon on the phone shows is that you are connected to their network, it does not show that you are on wi-fi, or cellular data. If the wi-fi fan is displayed, then you are on wi-fi. If the phone is displaying 3G then you are using cellular data. If you are connected to wi-fi, the phone defaults to wi-fi and will use that instead of cellular data. However, if the phone is not actively utilizing data and the phone goes into sleep mode, then wi-fi is disconnected. It will connect immediately after being awoken.
Does this answer your questions?

FTP accounts?

The built-in FTP of OS X is only capable of downloading. To upload files to an FTP account requires third-party software unless you want to use the Terminal and command line. There are, however, numerous good FTP applications that are free:
Fugu
Son of Fugu
NcFTP Client
CyberDuck
RBrowser Lite
Excellent shareware options include:
Transmit
Captain FTP
RBrowser
Simple FTP
Yummy FTP
Fetch
CrushFTP
They can all be found at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Is there a quick way to convert Albums to Projects?

Due to bringing in legacy organizing from iView MediaPro into Aperture years ago... I have an organizational structure consisting of few top level Projects containing many Albums. I now realize I should have few top level Folders containing many Projects (which contain Albums when necessary).
So the question is... is there a quick way to convert an Album to a Project? If I have to create a new Project for each Album I have by hand... this will take forever as I have hundreds of Albums.
Thanks!

Doing it manually is what I'm trying to avoid... I have a LOT of albums. I started trying to script it but I am trying to piece it together with my uber limited applescript knowledge... here's what I've got:
tell application "Aperture 3"
set imgSel to (get selection)
if imgSel is {} then
error "Please select an image."
else
set pName to name of parent of item 1 of imgSel
set pID to id of parent of item 1 of imgSel
set cID to id of parent of parent of item 1 of imgSel
tell library "Aperture Library"
make new project with properties {name:pName}
repeat with i from 1 to count of imgSel
move item i of imgSel to project (pName)
end repeat
end tell
end if
end tell
It's ghetto (there's some stuff I need to comment out that wasn't used) and it seemed to work in the test library I setup, but when I went back there were some weird thumbnail issues so I'm scared... not to mention it doesn't seem to work in the actual library for some reason. It won't create the new project. Weird.

Is there a quick way to replace entire sets of styles?

I am currently working on updating InDesign templates that the rest of our team use to start translating different versions of our books. In the template we have the guides and text boxes all created as well a sets of styles to use.. (Headers, Body, Captions..etc).
They started on an older version of this template and I've just updated it by re-defining all the styles. Is there a way I can replace a document's styles with an entirely new set?
The styles are all named the same from the previous versions - but currently I still have to go delete each style and apply the 'new' style - one by one. This takes a while when we have nearly 100 styles. Is there a quicker way to do this? Or am I looking at this whole template thing wrong?
Is there a tutorial or a video explaining the philosophy behind these templates? Basically, we create new books or documents all the time and although they go to different typesetters, I would like them all to use the same 'standard' styles.

When you load styles that have the same names you should get a dialog that lets choose whether to update the existing style with the incoming style or rename the incoming:

Is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate help?

Hi guys,
is there any other way to get Adobe Captivate specific help? I've posted a question twice with no help, it's very specific, so no one here might actually know the solution. I'm wondering though, since the chat is obviously not for Captivate users with product or service questions.
Is there a tech team I can somehow contact? We really need an answer to the problem.
Thanks,
Nat
P.S. I'll post the problem again here:
We publish mp4 training videos as HTML5 content and have the problem that we need to restrict the player to only play/pause.
Adobe Captivate 7 works fantastic for us on almost all devices, many Androids, many browsers, and even on iPad. Captivate, after adding the video as a multi-slide video to one slide and publishing it as HTML5 content, only lets the student play and pause the video - just what we need.
But then we test it on iPhone and the iPhone's internal quicktime player recognizes the mp4 video and kicks in, gives the student all the functions they want, totally overrides the HTML5 published Captivate restricted playback options.
Is there ANY way we can get around that? Any function or box we haven't checked before publishing the HTML5 content?
We would even be happy, if the video wouldn't play on iPhone - just as long as they can't use it to fast forward to the end of the video.
Does anyone here know how to bypass the internal iPhone 5 player?
Thanks,
Nat

By the way, I have updated to the newest Captivate 7 version and am using iOS version 7.0.4.
Again, it's fine on iPad, but not on iPhone 5.

Generally adding a common album artist will fix things.
