Managing Multiple Galleries (i.e. multiple MobileMe accounts)

I have a family MobileMe account and wish to manage some of the family members' galleries from iPhoto. I know that I can have multiple iPhoto libraries if necessary, but have not been able to figure out how to manage multiple MobileMe accounts (and their galleries) via iPhoto. Any tips?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. The best approach to managing multiple MMe accounts on one Mac is to have multiple User account on that Mac, one for each MMe account. That also would require multiple libraries unless you will have all of the photos in one. If that's the case you can move the library to the Shared folder and access it there from each account.
In each account log into the appropriate MMe account via the System/MobileMe preference pane. Then enable fast user switching via the System/Accounts pane to make it easy to switch user account.

  • Managing multiple iOS devices on different Apple accounts from the same iMac

    May be a very simple question to answer, but can I manage multiple iOS devices on different Apple accounts from the same iMac?
    I ask as whilst I'm totally Mac'd, my partner who has her own Apple account has a Winows laptop and experiences problems updating iOS software on her iPhone 4S and iPad 3 Gen via the laptop. I'm thinking the problems may be overcome if we manage her iOS devices through my iMac.

    Thanks dwb .... I thought there'd be a catch .... not to keen on all that media and apps on my iMac!
    The specific problem is that whenever she updates to the latsest version of iOS using the latest iTunes for Windows on her PC laptop she seems to lose something in the process. One time she lost all her texts and the other day when updating to 5.1.1 she lost all her reminders. Not the end of the world but frustrating and shouldn't really happen and doesn't happen to me using the iMac and OSX.

  • Questions about syncing multiple MobileMe accounts on one iPad

    You can set up multiple MobileMe accounts; however, only one MobileMe account at a time can be used for Find My iPad and for syncing contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and notes. (iPad User Guide p. 32)
    Okay.
    If you've done this already (created multiple MobileMe accounts on your iPad), can you please tell me how syncing two accounts to one device works in practice?
    What prevents the merging of contacts and calendars between two MobileMe accounts and one instance of the Calendar and Contacts apps?
    As a matter of functionality, and assuming there is a way to avoid merging this information, how does one access separate calendars and contacts from separate MobileMe accounts in the Calendar and Contact apps?
    Thanks!

  • IWeb 09 Multiple sites with multiple MobileMe accounts

    Hi guys, one more for you,
    i have my MobileMe account and my website, i also create to more small sites just for testing purpose, i want to know if i can have multiple websites on iWeb and each one with their own MobileMe account.
    (e.g)
    -- site1 ( [email protected])
    -- site2 ( [email protected])
    -- site3 ( [email protected])
    i have only One Mac computer and i have to work on 3 different sites with only this computer.
    Help please... I am new to Mac world ( but i love it )

    Do you really have 3 separate users or just want to publish 3 separate sites? If it's the latter then you can do all of them with just one MMe account. In your domain file with three sites the top size will be the "alpha" site in that if you enter the minimum URL, http://web.me.com/YourMMe_AccountName/, the top site will come up. To go to the other two sites you'll need to add the site name on the end of the URL above, i.e. http://web.me.com/YourMMe_Account_Name/Site_1name/.
    In this economy if you can do what you want with one account that's saving some $$$$.

  • Multiple MobileMe accounts – Set the one used for publishing Photos & Video

    I'm running OS 3.0 on an iPhone 3G S. I've configured two MobileMe accounts, both Mail only (no Calendar, no Contacts). MobileMe account 1 is also the default email account as of Settings.
    However: When I use one of the sharing features in the Photos app, it wants to publish to Galleries of MobileMe account 2 (though, as stated above, account 1 is set to be the default email account).
    Any idea how to change this?
    In the list of configured email accounts MobileMe account 2 is listed below MobileMe account 1. However, alphatically MobileMe account 2 ranges before MobileMe account 1. Is Photos simply picking the first MobileMe account it finds in alphabetical order?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Macworld has a workaround for this that seems to work ok:

    On getting the deleted mail accounts to sync back from iTunes, I had to de-select them first, and then re-select to get them to show up afterwards, but at least I can upload to the correct account now.

  • How to make multiple MobileMe accounts work in iCloud?

    I have 2 MobileMe accounts.  One is an old @mac.com that I use strictly for e-mail.  The other is my current @me.com (with an alias @me.com address) that I use for everything including iTunes store account.  I've already moved my @me.com account to the cloud.  Here are my questions:
    Do I move the @mac.com to the cloud on my iMac?  Will it override any calendars, contacts, etc.?  I want to add it to my iOS devices as well (iPhone and iPad at least).  I see under accounts on my iPhone I can add an iCloud account, but can I add it without compromising all the data from my @me account?
    Do I have to do anything to the alias account to move it?  Will it go away if I do nothing once MobileMe goes away?
    Thanks for any help.

  • Is it possible to sync multiple mobileme accounts onto the iphone, syncing ical calendars for these multiple mobile me accounts ?

    I am trying to sync two mobileme accounts into my iphone and each account have different calendars ( all being with ical NOT CALDAV).
    Now, my question is can I sync these different calendars, belonging to different mobileme accounts, into the iphone? please assist me on this matter.
    Basically i want to have a work calendar  to share with my colleagues and a personal calendar to share just with my friends and family.

    You are correct.  This used to work in the past although admittedly I haven't tried it for some time as it was of no direct use for my purposes.
    If the goal is to see another MobileMe account's calendar(s) on your iOS device then an alternative would be to share the calendar(s) in question to yourself.
    Example:
    Assume you currently have MobileMe user account A on your iPhone.
    Login to MM user account B with me.com which has the calendar you wish to have access to on your iPhone
    Click on Calendars
    Click on the Share button for the calendar you wish to see added to your iPhone.
    Type in the MobileMe email address for MM user account A and set it for read & write access
    Login to MM user account A on me.com
    Go to calendars and accept the invitation to join the calendar you sent from MM account B
    Go your iPhone (you may need to turn it on and off to make the calendars refresh ) and check your calendars, you should now have the other calendars added to your MobileMe account A's calendar
    Note: You can repeat step # 3 for each of the calendars you wish to see on your iPhone.

  • Multiple users on a single iTunes account

    I am wondering if anyone knows how one will be able to manage multiple users under a single account under the new iOS5. Let me explain. In my house my wife and children download content ( movies, music, app) under my itunes log in so we can decide to watch the movie on my computer or my sons iphone without running into DRM issues. With the automatic syncing of pictures with iCloud I dont want my pictures and hers being mixed up but would like to each have an account. The problem is that I dont want to loose the ability of having the same DRM account for different itunes account. In other words, is there a way to associate a couple of me.com (icloud) emails / accounts to be associated with one itune store purchase account to be able to take advantage of sharing content with in the family. My apologies for the long winded question but I couldn't explain it any other way.:)
    Any insight is greatly appreciated. thanks

    This is from a MobileMe page, so it may not fully apply, but it suggests you'll be able to use separate accounts for iCloud and iTunes.
    http://www.apple.com/mobileme/transition.html
    If I use different accounts for iTunes and MobileMe, can I merge them into a single account and use it with iCloud?
    No. You cannot merge two accounts into one. However, you will be able to move your MobileMe account ([email protected]) to iCloud and, if you choose, you can continue to use a different iTunes account for store purchases and iTunes in the Cloud.

  • Can I use the "same" button multiple times for multiple galleries?

    OK so I am extremely untrained in CS4 and Actionscript. However I have managed to get along fairly well until I started to dynamically upload images as a gallery. This works great if I have one gallery, but for my site I have 9 galleries!!! I have a back and next button, but I want to be able to use those same buttons for all of the galleries so they look the same. I have split them up and renamed them, but I am clueless on how to script the buttons to work. Please help...and don't laugh at my poor scripting. This is what I have now because I do not know where to put the other button names without getting errors.

    I'm still a novice with Flash myself, but I have two comments.
    First, at this point, won't your buttons control all galleries at the same time? Which means, if I go to image 5 in one gallery, then move to another gallery, I'll start at image 5, because the actions are all connected.
    Second, you can definitely use the same buttons for multiple galleries. It seems to me that as long as you've assigned the buttons an instance name, these actions should already work to control all the galleries (see the note above). I guess I would need to understand a bit more about how your project is built.

  • Multiple websites, multiple woes: Best IWeb 09/MobileMe strategy?

    I'm still a bit confused as to the best strategy for using IWeb 09's much-touted-in-reviews but apparently rather limited ability to publish to two or more separate MobileMe accounts.
    In IWeb 08, I would set up several different user accounts on my Mac, associate each one with a separate MobileMe account from my Family Pack, and maintain separate domain files for each (all stored in the same folder on my hard drive, but given different names like "Domain_personal" or "Domain_business"). This worked fairly well, despite the inconvenience of sometimes not having a photo I wanted to use readily available, as it might be part of an IPhoto library that belonged to another account.
    (I would generally log-in to the user account I wanted to use and work on the MobileMe domain file I had "assigned" to that account. But now and then I might forget, and start working on a domain file for the "wrong" Mac user account. That didn't seem to be a problem -- I could still save my latest changes, log out and then log in to the "right" user account, where I could publish my revised domain file to the intended MobileMe account.)
    But in IWeb 09, my previous strategy is resulting in a slew of problems. Unexpected crashes. Or IWeb refusing to save a file after I've changed it (it just tells me the file cannot be saved, no explanation). Or images and/or video files that will suddenly go missing. Last night I found that one domain file/site I had published over and over with no problems in Iweb 08, now appeared to be a complete mess in IWeb 09 -- numerous missing images, including some png files that are apparently part of the Apple-supplied IWeb design template. Yet the graphics (mine and Apple's) were suddenly back when I opened that same domain file in another user account on my Mac.
    So my IWeb 08 strategy does not seem to be working in IWeb 09. I guess an alternative would be: Do all my IWeb work in the same user account, swap domain files as I'd been doing before, and reset my MobileMe identity for that user account every time I want to publish. Or -- essentially the same thing -- use IWeb's ability to maintain multiple sites in the same domain file. But once again, I'd typically need to manually change my MobileMe identity to a different account at publishing time, to get an individual site going to the right place. And hope like heck that I don't accidentally mess up ICal, etc., by accidentally syncing to "wrong" Mobile Me account, to which I've logged in solely to accommodate IWeb.
    Am I missing something here? Is there some logical reason why Apple would set up IWeb 09 to allow you to publish multiple sites, stored in one domain file, to various multiple external sites via FTP with ease? But make it essentially impractical to publish to several different MobileMe accounts, without the hassles I've mentioned?
    It seems to me that if I want to use IWeb 09 for multiple web sites, the only sane thing is to drop my extra MobileMe accounts as soon as possible, and add some more external sites --- since (if you can do the RSS, etc., yourself) Apple has just made it so much easier to publish to anywhere-else-but-MobileMe.
    Anybody have a different take on this? Or a better solution?

    The following may not be a better solution, but it does provide a different "take". I haven't tried it myself, so I wouldn't be surprised if there's a fatal flaw in the idea. Anyway, taking that risk...
    Since we don't know what, in iWeb '09, is causing your "slew of problems", it's not possible to say whether this proposed approach would make any difference. But in theory it would enable you to:
    • maintain your separate Domain files
    • publish to your multiple MobileMe accounts
    • from the same user account on your Mac.
    Take a look at this Apple doc:
    MobileMe: How to publish a custom website
    The idea is to publish your iWeb sites to different MobileMe accounts from a single Mac user account as +"custom websites"+ and, as that doc says:
    "If you only plan to publish custom sites to your MobileMe account, you can make your site's URL shorter by placing your site (and its main index.html file) in the main Web/Sites folder instead."
    ...Presumably iWeb 09's integrated non-MobileMe publishing is FTP only, not WebDAV that iDisk requires. So you would need the free Cyberduck or pay for Transmit to publish your sites via WebDAV protocol to a MobileMe account's iDisk. And for a Domain you are about to publish, you would have to remember to use the appropriate MobileMe "destination" of the several you've set up to use in Cyberduck or Transmit.

  • Multiple TYPEELIM property values for an account

    I am trying to set automatic adjustment business rules and need to assign multiple multiple TYPEELIM property values for an account. Any idea how to achieve this?
    Here is my example. Letu2019s assume there are 2 eliminations I need to do.
    Elimination 1: Account A, B, C going to Account Y
    Elimination 2: Account A, B, D going to Account Z
    For elimination 1, to group source accounts (A,B,C), I want to assign u201CELIM1u201D for TYPEELIM property to all source account (A,B,C).
    For elimination 2, to group source accounts (A,B,D), I want to assign u201CELIM2u201D for TYPEELIM property to all source account (A,B,D).
    As you see, accounts A and B are repeated in both cases. I am not sure how I can assign both ELIM1 and ELIM2 property for these two accounts.
    Options I have thought of:
    1.     Include automatic adjustment line by line:  But since I have many accounts, this will be very lengthy and not good from maintenance point of view.
    2.     Include one ELIM1 in TYPEELIM and ELIM2 in Dimlist: But my real case is more than just two elims as mentioned above. What if there are 4 elim and includes same account?
    Any idea on this?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Family Sharing: Can it be used to back up multiple phones to the same iCloud account?

    With the Family Sharing feature of iOS8 & Yosemite, is it possible to back up multiple iPhones automatically to one iCloud account?
    My family needs a way to automatically back up their iPhones. It would get really costly and otherwise problematic to equip each of us with iCloud accounts just so we could back up our phones automatically. If Family Sharing enables us to do these automated backups to one iCloud account, then I'd go ahead and upgrade my iCloud account to the 200 GB iCloud storage allotment.
    However, if I do this, does this give my 11-year-old access to my iCloud email account, contacts and other personal information? I imagine that the Family Sharing tool should be able to manage this, but I'd like to be sure.
    Thanks.

    I do know that if you have separate iCloud accounts you can share with your children what you need to. I encouraged my daughter to do that for her 2 kids she bought iPads for Xmas. Instead of using her account like she had been doing with her old iPhones the kids used, she created new iCloud accounts to take advantage of the 5 gig for each account, otherwise just 2-3 devices ***** up that 5 gigs immediately.  She then set up what she wanted them to have access to, and it worked out perfectly!
    I myself was thinking of doing the opposite of what you inquired about and doing what she did with her kids, but for myself. I am thinking about created a separate iCloud account then share with myself what I need to so I can gain 5 gig storage by using separate account on a couple devices.

  • HT1766 can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Can you have multiple iPhones in the same iTunes account without overwriting each phones content?

    Hi sandexpress,
    As Ocean20 indicates, you want to make sure that you have automatic syncing turned off. In iTunes Preferences under Devices, make sure you have "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically" checked. Then connect each iPhone, and make sure that "Manually Manage Music and Videos" is checked on the Info page for each of them. Then go into each page for each device, and select what you want to sync to that particular device. (you would do this one device at a time - complete the steps for one of the phones, then connect the next one and do the same thing).
    With this kind of setup, you can modify what will sync at any given time for a particular device once you have connected it to iTunes, but before you click on the Sync button at the bottom of the screen. If you want to change some sync options on a particular device, you would just go into the page you wanted to change (Music, Photos, Apps, etc.), make your changes, and then Sync.
    If you do not have any changes, you can just hook up the phone and click on Sync.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,

  • Trying to post multiple galleries

    I'm using iphoto 08 and I would like to do the following:
    1. have multiple galleries with their own user names and pw. For example, three galleries for Japanese Trip and two galleries for Ski Trip. For those people invited to the Japanese Trip galleries, they should be able to see all three sets, but not the Ski Trip sets. Is there anyway to do this if I only have one .mac account?
    2. I would like to be able to publish some of my galleries to a different server (my own domain name - not .mac) Is that possible?

    Sort of - Not what you request where a password controls which galleries people see but you can "hide" a gallery - gallery settings ==> advanced ==> "hide album on my web gallery page" - then people will need the exact URP to see it
    Hide controld seeing or not seeing a gallery
    Password controls accessing or not accessing a gallery - there is not way to make "sets" of galleries - each stands alone in each of the attributes.
    2. I would like to be able to publish some of my galleries to a different server (my own domain name - not .mac) Is that possible?
    Not as web galleries - you can post iWeb pages and there are third party web layouts but much of the Web Gallery is server side controlled and you can only access it via .Mac

  • Deploy multiple websites under basic or standard account and charge individually as per site usage.

    Hello Everyone,
    I want to host multiple website under one basic/standard account and charge the individual clients as per their site usage, so my question are:
    Can I host multiple websites under one basic/standard account?
    How can I see billing for each client website or is there any way to check billing per website?
    Can I create co-administrator on the basis of websites so that he can manage only his website?
    Thanks, Dilip

    Hi Dilip,
    Thanks for your posting!
    I am not sure that I totally understand your question. From my understanding, I think you may want to charge the every websites separately by their usage. And the meaning of "host multiple websites under one basic/standard account" is that you
    want to host your multiple website on one basic/standard pricing tier.
    >>Can I host multiple websites under one basic/standard account?
    The answer is yes. Firstly, I recommend you refer to the pricing details (http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/websites/). For each pricing tier, all of them have the
    description about the limit of website number. For basic and standard tier, they are no limit of website number. 
    >>How can I see billing for each client website or is there any way to check billing per website?
    Currently, Azure don't support this feature about check every website billing on one pricing tier. But Azure can show every websites usage about every metrics and the consuming information . You could check the usage on the new preview portal. And Azure
    billing item details, I suggest you can see this documents(http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/support/understand-your-bill/). The billing item don't include every websites
    billing.
    >>Can I create co-administrator on the basis of websites so that he can manage only his website?
    Co-Administrator is users for your Azure subscription. They have the permission for all of your services and included websites service. If you want the user only can manage his website on Azure portal, the one approach is that you can create the new
    subscriptions for each users. They can use their subscription to manage their service. The other approach is that you can use the Azure VM . And you can add the permission for users. And your users can login on VM using RDP.
