Is there a way to sign in on your mac from another persons mac

I was just wondering if anyone new how you could sign into your mac from another persons mac. I seem to remember there being mention of that in the keynote for Lion or Mountain Lion. Do you have to set up a remote desktop thing or is there a basic way to do it? If so how do you do it?
Thanks,
Jon

Yes, but how you do it depends on what it is you wish to do. If you wish to control your Mac from another Mac, use Screen Sharing:

You can also set up file sharing so you can access the files of your Mac from another Mac:

  • Is there a way to sync songs that I purchased from another person's account, which have transferred to my library, onto my ipod, without their authorization?

    I used to share an accout with a family member on itunes, where I bought a lot of my songs and kept them on a shared library. We used home-share to transfer my songs onto my MacBook Pro and start my own library, but when we turned off Home-Share and de-authorized the other person's account on my computer, I was no longer able to sync the songs I puchased on her account onto my ipod. She would have to remain authorized on my mac for me to be able to sync those songs onto my ipod. Is there another way to do it, without her authorization? Thanks!

    Your iPod will only work with and sync content you have either purchased from the iTunes store or imported from elsewhere via iTunes.

  • Is there any way to call methods of one view from another

    Hi experts,
    I am new to webdynpro.I am having some requirement in which I need to call methods of one view from some other view of same component .So is there any way to do this.

    Dear Pradeep,
    This will solve your problem......( plz 1st read everything ..)
    There are 2 views  :
    i) Mandatory Attributes ' view(V1)
    ii) Button' s  View..(V2)
    1. Create a method in Component Controller.( M1).
    2. Goto V2 . In the Action Handler method of Button , call method  M1 of component controller.
    3. Write your Code in M1 instead of  V2 method.
    4. Create an EVENT ( E1 ) in component controller.
    5. Fire this event  from M1 before executing Action Code.
    6. Now  Add the event handler method of  E1 in  V1 ( i.e. Mandatory attributes view. )   ..........clear????? .. set "METHOD TYPE" = Event Handler. instead of  Method.
    7. In this event handler method in V1 , write the "check_mandatory_attribute_view" method.
    8. use necessary flags..
    Regards ,
    Aditya.

  • My mac just turned off and wont turn on, i have another laptop, I was working on editing a photo shoot in lightroom. Is there a way I can log into my lightroom from another computer to access my catalog?

    My macbook just turned off and will not turn back on. I have another laptop, I was editing a photoshoot, and I needed to access those photos. Is there anyway to log into my lightroom account from another laptop, so that I can access those?

    Unfortunately, your Lr catalogue is stored on the original Mac, so just logging into your account would not work. As a Windows user in your situation, and if the need for speed was essential, I would remove the hard drive from the malfunctioning PCI and connect it to a working example and try to access the catalogue from  an installation of Lr on that one. Is that at all possible with your Mac setup?
    Edit: do you have separate backups of your catalogue, in the cloud for instance, but can the catalogue held there be installed on a different Mac? I 've no idea if this is possible, but if you're a professional facing a deadline etc, it might be worthwhile investigating this possibility if it's impossible to move the hard drive as I suggested above.

  • TS1363 is there a way to download music to your iphone as a RINGTONE

    Is there a way to dowload music to your IPHONE from a computer as a ringtone

    You have to convert it to m4r format and duration must be 40secs or less.  Here is how to convert music into ringtones on iTunes.
    Before you start, first go to iTunes top menu, click "Edit", "Preference". Under "general" Tab, click "Import Settings", make sure under Import Using that "AAC Encoder" is selected.
    Right click the song in music library you want to create ringtone and choose “Get Info” 
    Choose “Option” Tab, Check “Start Time” & Stop Time” of the track you want to make into ringtone and put in your start time and end time (Max 40 secs duration), then click OK 
    Right mouse click the music again and choose “Create AAC Version” 
    You will see a copy of song with same name appeared but with 40sec duration only. Now drag the song onto your desktop and you will see the name is now xxxxxx.m4a. 
    Change the file extension m4a into m4r from the desktop 
    Delete the 40sec m4a file from the music library (You must do this step or Itune will not accept your new m4r file). 
    *Important - Now uncheck the start & stop time of the original song so that you can play back full length. 
    Now, drag the m4r file from desktop to Library 
    Click onto the Tones under Library, and you find you ringone file.
    Once you have the ringtones in Tones library, you may sync it to your device.  Connect and select your iPhone on iTunes left Pane, then on right go to Tones tab and make sure SYNC Tones is checked and click the APPLY or SYNC button on the lower right window.

  • I have a first generation iPad and got my husband the iPad 2 for xmas.  is there a way to transfer his tiny tower game from my iPad to his without using the same iTunes account?

    I have a first generation iPad and got my husband the iPad 2 for xmas.  is there a way to transfer his tiny tower game from my iPad to his without using the same iTunes account?

    Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

  • I have an iphone and an ipad (which are connected by the same apple id) i broke the phone and sold it but i didnt get to factory reset it because it was broken, is there any way for me to wipe my iphone from my ipad?

    i have an iphone and an ipad (which are connected by the same apple id) i broke the phone and sold it but i didnt get to factory reset it because it was broken, is there any way for me to wipe my iphone from my ipad?

    Try this:
    Open the "Find my iPhone" app on your iPad, fill in your AppleID and password at the start up screen, and you should see a list of all your devices and their current location, if connected to a Wi-Fi or mobile data network. Devices not connected will be shown as "offline". But you can still trap on the icon and hit "erase iPhone" in the right hand window.
    If your iPhone is not listed, you did not activate this feature during the setup of the phone and it can't be erased remotely.
    If the phone is listed, even as offline, tap on "erase" to send the erase command. The next time your device will be connected to any kind of network, the content will be erased.

  • Is there a way I can send what I'm watching on my Mac to a TV in the house Note I do have ITV

    is there a way I can send what I'm watching on my Mac to a TV in the house Note I do have ATV

    Yes, if the Apple TV is located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from your wireless router. You will still need to connect from the Apple TV to the TV using an HDMI cable. Not possible to send the signal via wireless directly to your TV.

  • Is there a way to exclude temporary people picker fields from a query when receiving the "List View Lookup Threshold" error.

    Hi All,
    My users require the ability to select a sharepoint group from a drop down list and then be able to select a user from a people picker based on the drop down selection.    The best solution I was able to up with, was create a people picker
    for each drop down selection and set the Sharepoint group field to the selected group.  All people picker filed are hidden except the one that matches the drop down selection.  When creating an entry from the sharepoint list this method
    works perfectly.
    However, when I add the list onto a site page using an "Listview webpart", then add an infopath web part and then finally connect the two parts, I get a "List View Lookup Threshold" error when selecting an entry from the list.  I
    understand from the error and reading that this error is related to the number of People pickers in the list.   Is there a way to exclude temporary people picker fields from a site page query, as they are only temporary fields to allow the users
    to select a person and then assign the name to another field.

    Hi Dwayne,
    In SharePoint 2013, we could manually create a list for all users. Here are the reference:
    Go to Site Settings >  People and Groups > SiteMembers
    Modify url
    http://sitename/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=8 to
    http://sp/sites/tutu/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0 , now you will see All people in this site.
    Change the view to List view, and copy the listview id in the url
    http://sitename/_layouts/15/people.aspx?MembershipGroupId=0&View={viewID}
    Go to Settings > List settings, copy the list id in the url
    http://sitename/_layouts/15/listedit.aspx?List=listeid&Source=....
    Now type the address in IE:
    http://sitename/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=109&Using=_layouts/query.iqy&List=[LISTID]&View=[VIEWID]&CacheControl , such as
    http://sp/sites/tutu/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=109&Using=_layouts/query.iqy&List=f3958d27-9c2f-4f8d-b221-89466e816667&View=696BFDC5-0C6E-4E27-818F-0E6292A18407&CacheControl=1
    Save the owssvr.jqy from SharePoint site
    Now you could see the file in your desktop with all users, save it as allusers in Excel.
    Then import it to your SharePoint site, add an app > find an app > import spreadsheet
