Mail - Support for Multiple Identities (under one OS account).

Let me define what I mean by an "Identity" before that is misunderstood.
In Entourage, you can have multiple email accounts (just like in Apple Mail). However you can create multiple Identities, each of which only has access to that Identity's email accounts.
For example, the Mac is operating using one User Account: lets call this account "Dave". Now while logged into this User account on the Mac, I can have an Entourage Identity called "Dave - Personal" that only has access to a group of personal email accounts. I can then (within Entourage) switch to an Identity called "Dave - Work" that would then only have access to my work email accounts.
All the while, regardless of which Entourage Identity I am using, I am at all times still logged in to the Mac User account "Dave", so I have access to all of the same data (documents, etc.).
Is there a way to have Apple Mail operate in the same manner?
Before anyone asks why....
I keep my work emails and my personal emails in different Identities, within the same Mac User account. I do not open up the work Identity (with the work-related email accounts) after 5 p.m. weekdays or during the entire weekend. (This way, I don't have to see or worry about work!) However, whether I am at work or at home, (or anywhere else) I still want to have access to all of the same data within my Mac User account. So, the solution that most people may recommend, which would be to create separate Mac user accounts for each Identity, doesn't really solve my problem.
Does anyone know if this type of functionality can be had using Apple Mail? I am growing tired of Entourage, and this is one (of several) reasons I have still not switched to Apple Mail.

In a word, No. To accomplish that you must create a separate user account. You can have multiple email accounts within Mail, however. But not as a separate identity as in Entourage.

Multiple Schemas under one user account with XE 10g

Hi,
I am using (learning) XE 10g. I would like to know if it is possible to have multiple schemas under one user account and have the schemas logically separated. As of right now, I have three schemas that I am working with, each one under a different user account. This is inconvenient, because I have to logout of one user account and login to another user account simply to be able to work with another schema.
Thanks

It isn't possible to have multiple schemas under one database user account. It is of course possible to grant rights to other database users, and or roles, in order to allow access to the tables/data from other accounts. In Oracle there is a one-one mapping between schema and user.

Find my Friends : Support for multiple users under the same Apple ID?

Can multiple users under the same Apple ID use the app to find each other? My daughter uses my Apple ID with her iPod touch which allows me to monitor her purchases but it seems that only one device under an ID can use the app at a time. If that is the case then it is a major disadvantage and I will need to go back to using latitude (or Find My iPhone which also allows me to see where all of my devices are at the same time)

Use case for multiple crosstabs under one datasource

I'm trying to understand why one would have multiple crosstabs for one datasource. When I change one crosstab, it changes the other crosstab. I was could have a different layout for multiple crosstabs.
Thanks.

Mel Calucin

Hi Mel,
I am not following this question; would it be possible to rephrase it?
You could have multiple tabs for a data source - such as a one tab showing the result set in a cross tab and the other for a chart.

Multiple users under one itunes account

I have multiple mac's (both desktops and laptops) as well as multiple iphones and ipads at home. I am limited in itunes to only 5 devices - what should i do? set-up a different itunes account for my kids (but then they will not be able to access the music and movies that have already been purchased).
Unsure how to best set-up 4 people (with each having an iphone, ipad and mac) itunes.
Any suggestions?

Ideally, each will have their own iTunes account.
I am limited in itunes to only 5 devices
Each iTunes account is limited to 5 computers but 10 devices.
So you can have content from one iTunes account on 5 computers and also 5 iDevices.
set-up a different itunes account for my kids (but then they will not be able to access the music and movies that have already been purchased).
Yes, they will. Just authorize each computer for the other iTunes accounts.
Make sure you go to iTunes prefs > Store and disable Automatic downloads.
Also disable it on the iDevices in Settings > iTunes and App stores.
You can share content between users/libraries by using Home Sharing.

Which is better having many Window User Accounts for the same person, so to have many Firefoxes or have many Firefoxes under one Windows Account User?

Right now I have around 6 Window User Accounts (just for me on one computer) because I did not know that I could put more then one Firefox per account. I have to leave the tabs up when I close Firefox because if I just bookmark them I wont finish my work I was doing with those sites. Now that I know how to put multiple Firefoxes under one user account. Which would make my computer fast or does it not matter, if I put all my Firefoxes on one Window user account or have 6 Window user accounts, each with their own Firefox?
-Thanks

It is more work to switch to another Windows account then to open another Firefox instance with another profile.
If you only use the other windows accounts for using Firefox that way and not for other purposes then there is nothing against switching to only one Windows account to make it easier to manage things as backing up your personal data or copying your data between the other profiles.
So it is up to you if you want to switch to only one Windows account.

I have multiple computers set up on homesharing under one itunes account. Can I use face time on all of them or do i need seperate accounts for each?

I have multiple computers set up on homesharing under one itunes account. Can I use face time on all of them or do i need seperate accounts for each?

I'd suggest you consider a cloud-based file sharing service such as Dropbox for this sort of use. iOS is not designed to be synched with more than one iTunes library at a time, so attempting to use it as you describe, connecting a single iPad to multiple computers, almost certainly won't work as you intend and is likely to cause nothing but headaches.

Advise on using DBMS_XA with multiple branches under one global transaction

Dear all
I need some advise on using DBMS_XA from PL/SQL with tightly coupled multiple branches under one global transaction. Basically, I've successfully written some PL/SQL code that in 3 different sessions attaches to 3 different branches of one global transaction and before ending each branch they can see each others uncommitted data. So far so good.
However, I'm not sure I completely understand how each branch must call xa_end, xa_prepare and xa_commit correctly using two phase commit and my calls result in errors like:
ORA-24767: transaction branch prepare returns read-only (XA error code 3 = Transaction was read-only and has been committed)
ORA-24756: transaction does not exist (XA error code -4 = XID is not valid)
ORA-02051: another session or branch in same transaction failed or finalized
This is the structure of my programs (3 SQL*Plus sessions):
main: Uses xid 123|0 (branch 0 of global transaction 123). This should be the coordinator that commits using two phase commit across the 3 branches
m1.xa_start tmnoflags
m2.DML
m3.Wait for thread A + B to manually be started and run xa_end
m4.xa_end tmsuccess
m5.xa_prepare
m6.xa_commit false
thread A: Uses xid 123|A (branch A of global transaction 123)
a1.xa_start tmnoflags
a2.DML -- thread A can see main and thread B's data
a3.xa_end tmsuccess
a4.xa_prepare -- required?
a5.Should we also call xa_commit false?
thread B: Uses xid 123|B (branch B of global transaction 123)
b1.xa_start tmnoflags
b2.DML -- thread B can see main and thread A's data
b3.xa_end tmsuccess
b4.xa_prepare -- required?
b5.Should we also call xa_commit false?
The failing steps are:
m5
m6
a4
a5
b4
b5
Before starting calling xa_end I see 3 rows in V$GLOBAL_TRANSACTION, eg (hex 7B = decimal 123):
FORMATID GLOBALID BRANCHID BRANCHES REFCOUNT PREPARECOUNT STATE FLAGS COUPLING
203348753 0000007B 00000000000000000000000000000000 3 3 0 ACTIVE 0 TIGHTLY COUPLED
203348753 0000007B 0000000000000000000000000000000A 3 3 0 ACTIVE 0 TIGHTLY COUPLED
203348753 0000007B 0000000000000000000000000000000B 3 3 0 ACTIVE 0 TIGHTLY COUPLED
Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers
Finn

OK, I've figured it out. This is poorly documented as it's not well explained how to handle the various return codes. Turns out that all but the last xa_prepare calls return dbms_xa.xa_rdonly (tightly coupled branches are combined -- "read only" optimization), the last one returns dbms_xa.xa_ok and this is when you should call xa_commit.
Now my next problem is that DBMS_XA doesn't work from within jobs (DBMS_JOB and DBMS_SCHEDULER), which makes it very difficult to use DBMS_XA. My purpose of using DBMS_XA is to coordinate work across multiple sessions in one transaction but if I can't easily create the multiple sessions, I'm stuck.
When called from a job, xa_start throws:
ORA-24789: start not allowed in recursive call
on Oracle 11.2. In Oracle 11.1 it works, but xa_end fails with
ORA-25352: no current transaction
so I guess in fact the xa_start call didn't really work either, even though it returned tm_ok.
I'm now trying to find a workaround on how to use DBMS_XA from within jobs, please comment if you have any suggestions. Or if you have any suggestions on other means of establishing the concurrent sessions (I wouldn't like to resort to external programs that need username/password to connect as password management would be a security issue).
Thanks in advance.

Feature request: Support for Multiple Libraries (like in iMovie)

From the threads, I can tell this topic was raised by many for many years. I would like to propose support for multiple iPhoto libraries -- or more specifically, the ability to distribute media across different storage devices.
There is a huge gap between my spacially limited MBP 250 GB SSD and my external 4 TB HDD. I am aware that I can juggle two separate libraries in iPhoto but it's just not practical and the moving of media between the libraries is not a simple drag and drop effort but involves exporting and importing with me having to clean up on one side or the other.
iMovie has had support for several libraries for a long time presumably because the sheer size of media in the video realm gave the iMovie team little choice.
I can't be the only one having this itch, right?

Again, you need to clarify your terms
Aperture can move master photos files around. With Aperture you can write additional metadata to the original file.
You don't need multiple libraries to thematically arrange photos, though. A simple keywordign system will do that.
So in Aperture I don't have to restart into different libraries?
You can have all your photos in a sinble library with the master files stored off-disk easily. You can relocate them from disk to disk too. However, if you;re doing presentations that is probably not necessary if you generate good quality previews. I'd ask about these things on the Aperture forum for more.

Support for multiple libraries...?

Hi, I have a question as how is the best way to manage y music libraries given my usage scenario.
First let me set the context of what I have. I have over 35GB of ripped music, that resides in an external drive. Currently this music is available through my iTunes application, but it is NOT part of my lybrary (meaning I imported but did NOT copy it into the library). I do NOT want to have 35GB of music in my notebook's HD.
My iTunes library is in my local HD (music folder). This is a small file that basically has the 'podcasts' and the 'artwork'.
What do I want? I would love to keep all my music and videos on the external drive, and have my podcasts in my local HD. This way when I am on the road, I can update the podcasts, without having to carry with me all my music.
This all works fine the way I have it now, except that every time I rip a new CD or buy music from the iTunes Store, they go to my local HD and not my external drive.
Any ideas on how to work this out? I would love support for multiple libraries, but I don't thnks it's possible as far as I looked into it.
Thanks SO much!

This all works fine the way I have it now, except that every time I rip a new CD or buy music from the iTunes Store, they go to my local HD and not my external drive.
Set the 'iTunes Music folder location' (Preferences>Advanced>General) to the music folder on your external.
The next time you rip a CD or purchase music, it will be stored there.
Note: the 'iTunes Music folder location' is not the folder where your music is, but the location where iTunes stores imported music (and added music when 'Copy files to.....' is checked)
If you ran iTunes once with your external drive not attached/mounted, this location is reset to the internal drive.
iTunes 7 has support for multiple libraries. Press and hold the Option-key on launching iTunes until a window pops up which asks you to choose a library or create a new one.
Libra and iTunes Library Manager both work with iTunes 7 and older versions. They also save the preferences for every library you created.
Hope this helps.

Can I use Find My iphone service with multiple iphones under one account? I have 4 iphones in my family and I want to monitor all phones by logging into one account!

You can create and use different iCloud accounts on the same computer, whether they are single or multiple user.
There is a limit of 3 accounts you can create from a device but I thought this was only iOS devices - maybe not.
iCloud accounts can only be created using a valid email address, so I guess I'd start there to retrace what accounts you have.

Multiple subnets under one vlan

Hi everyone,
Is there any way to create multiple subnets under one VLAN ? Right now, I am using VLAN 110 and it's IP is 172.16.0.1/16.
We have three types of devices on this VLAN.I want to create 3 or 4 subnets for those devices under this VLAN for reducing the traffic or broadcast ?
Please advise me.....
Thanks in advance

Mohammed,
As long as you have a single VLAN only, you will not reduce the amount of broadcasts in this VLAN by using several IP networks. Even if the stations are in different IP networks within a single VLAN, every broadcast will be sent across the entire VLAN to all stations, regardless of their configured IP address. Broadcasting is a matter of Data Link Layer, or Layer2, and if you keep a single Layer2 domain (the VLAN), you will keep a single, merged, large broadcast domain.
Just to answer your question, you could assign multiple addresses to an interface in a single network/VLAN by using secondary IP addresses, for example:
interface Vlan110
ip address 172.16.0.1 255.255.0.0
ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 secondary
ip address 10.20.30.1 255.255.255.0 secondary
However, as I explained, this will only allow you to "stretch" multiple IP networks over a single broadcast domain so there is no saving in terms of broadcasts or traffic reduction. For that, you must resort to multiple VLANs.
Best regards,
Peter

How can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

I have two iPads.. an iPad and an ipad 2. I registared my new ipad 2 and now my old ipad is will not let me log on and is telling me that my e-mail address is already in use. how can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

And by using the same Apple ID you can also share purchases. If you have a different Apple ID for each iPhone then you can't share purchases.

Is it possible to combine multiple Pur Reqs for multiple materials to one vendor into one PO through MD07?

We have material planners who use MD07 (traffic signal screen) Stock/Requirements List, Collective Access tab to review material requirements by MRP Controller. Once the list is created, they select individual materials and review them in MD04. In a lot of cases, Purchase Reqs (PRs) are reviewed and adopted into POs individually for each material. Sometimes they will combine multiple PRs for one material into one PO. This is a good practice. However, from what I have found, it is not possible to combine multiple PRs for multiple materials into one PO. If this was done it would dramatically reduce the number of POs that we are issuing to suppliers. Problem statement: We issue too many POs which causes additional influxes down the line (receiving dock/goods receipts processing, receiving issues, invoices, invoice issues, etc.). Does anyone know of a way to address this problem without a major overhaul in approach or customization of the system? Thank you in advance!

Hello Michael
As far as I know, this is not possible directly from MD07, only from the MM transactions.
The following thread suggests the following procedure to convert several PRs into one PO:
Conversion of multiple PR into single P.O
Drag and drop the first PR from the item overview to the shopping card on top of ME21N,
then open the PO detail delivery schedule tab and drag and drop all other PR to the shopping card shown in the schedule tab
You can use the same procedure, calling the order conversion from MD07 and then drag and drop another PRs into this PO.
