Multiple users same pictures

How can I set up iPhoto so multiple users from my iMac can access the same pictures/data/images?
I think right now, everybody will have their own set of images. I want all of the users to use the same set of images.

You question is not clear - does this help? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1198
If so the first solution on an external drive works best
But note that iPhoto is not a multi-user system

Multiple users, same login/account?

Hi,
Is it possible for multiple users in a department to use the same Contribute account login to edit their webpages, or will this cause problems with lockfiles or versioning or anything else?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Scotch,
It is possible for multiple users to use the same connection key/login credentials in multiple machines to edit their webpages using Contribute.
If some page is placed in edit mode, Contribute will show an info bar for the same

Multiple users same account different roles

Hi,
How could I do this in thunderbird?
There is only one email account. Under the only one email account, there is a manager who have all the privileges. There are some users accounts who can only read and reply emails. Users accounts can't delete any messages.
Thanks,

Multiple users/same library

hi!
i'm new to the mac world and i'm just wondering about different accounts on my imac and sharing the same iphoto library.
By default, do pictures that are imported end up as separate iphoto library files or can i get them to go to one "common" library.
Thanks, T

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
By default each user account has it's own library, but there are ways to share...
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.

Authorization Issues Multiple Users - Same PC

ITunes says it authorizes 'this computer'. I take that to mean the whole Desktop and not individual users.
I am rebuilding a second profile and need iTunes to work in both profiles (users) on the PC, although not at the same time. I know how to move Itunes, but it wants each user to be authorized which seems to be not per the agreement.
How do I use the same authorization in 2 profiles?

Copy the iTunes folder to a shared folder (such as /Users/Public/Public Music/).
Hold Shift when launching iTunes and select Choose library and select the iTunes folder in the shared location.

Multiple users, same color in Word 2013 document

A document that was uploaded to a content management system, downloaded and worked on by other users who exchanged the document via e-mail, then uploaded again, had the same color for two users after being downloaded once more. The two users still had the
same color after I shut everything down and logged back in again. All other users (there were about six in all) had individual colors.
How can I fix this problem, so that each user has a separate color--not just four users having separate colors and two users sharing a color? There certainly were colors that were not in use in the document (green, yellow, silver, etc.).
Because the document resided in a content management system, I was referred to this forum instead of the more general Word 2013 forum. Any help would be very much appreciated!

Hi,
I'm not sure what color it is in your post, font color or else?
Please also explain the user's process to handle the document, if possible, step by step, so that I can have a better understanding.

How to use the same POWL query for multiple users

Hello,
I have defined a POWL query which executes properly. But if I map the same POWL query to 2 portal users and the 2 portal users try to access the same page simultaneously then it gives an error message to one of the users that
"Query 'ABC' is already open in another session."
where 'ABC' is the query name.
Can you please tell me how to use the same POWL query for multiple users ?
A fast reply would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Sandhya

Batch processing usually involves using actions you have recorded. In Action you can insert Path that can be used during processing documents. Path have some size so you may want to only process document that have the same size. Look in the Actions Palette fly-out menu for insert path. It inserts|records the current document work path into the action being worked on and when the action is played it inserts the path into the document as the current work path..

There are multiple users with the same display name

Hi,
We have a user and when she get an item assigned to her she sees the following alert:
"There are multiple users with the same display name USERNAME and at least one of them does not have read permissions to some of the files"
Now I looked in the database and when I run the following query with the username:
SELECT
[ProviderDisplayName]
,[DisplayName]
,[HasDisplayName]
,[Domain]
,[AccountName]
,[UniqueUserId]
,[LastSync]
FROM [Tfs_Configuration].[dbo].[tbl_Identity] where displayname like '%USERNAME%'
Then I get 2 same usernames back, How can I get rid of one of them ? When I access TFS trough the portal I only find 1 occurence of this user.
We use VS2013 and TFS2013 update 4
Best regards

Hi DSW,
Thanks for your post.
In your query result, please check if these two users have the same Account Name. if they are two different Account Name in result, it indicate there’s two users have the same display name in your AD, please check that two users’ information in
your AD. We suggest change one user’s display name in AD.

Multiple Users Mounting the Same Network Share?

Hello, first time posting...
I'll cut right to my main question: Is it possible, on OS X v10.3.9, for multiple users to simultaneously connect to the same network share?
Here in my office, we have a single Mac that is used by multiple people throughout the day. It has two accounts on it, 'Communications' and 'Studio'. 'Communications' is an Admin account that is used by a co-worker who spends the most time on the Mac. He created the no-limitation 'Studio' account for the rest of us to use.
There is a certain Windows network share that we both frequently use. We've found that if one user connects to the share first, the other user will not have access to it; using 'Go -> Connect to Server' will result in the share being greyed out in the list, and the share will not show up in the Finder.
However, there is one way around it. If Studio connects to the share first and then Communications (the admin account) attempts to make a connection of it's own *through a shortcut on the dock*, then a 'clone' of the share will be created on Comm's desktop, with a "-1" after the name (though it might be some other number).
This may sound like I've answered my own question, but what I'm looking for is a way for the non-Admin account to access the share after the Admin account already has (so that we don't have to log-in and disconnect Communications everytime Studio needs to manage files on the share).
We have Thursby Software's DAVE installed on the Mac, but I'm not sure how it fits into all this.
Any thoughts, suggestions or advice?
Thanks.

Bizarre. It turned out I could merge them, but only in to the mapped drive - L: - and only by explicitly clicking on the drive icon - if I typed L:\series in to dialog box it converted it back to \\nas\share\series... Not helpful.

Multiple users accessing the same data in a global temp table

I have a global temp table (GTT) defined with 'on commit preserve rows'. This table is accessed via a web page using ASP.NET. The application was designed so that every one that accessed the web page could only see their data in the GTT.
We have just realized that the GTT doesn't appear to be empty as new web users use the application. I believe it has something to do with how ASP is connecting to the database. I only see one entry in the V$SESSION view even when multiple users are using the web page. I believe this single V$SESSION entry is causing only one GTT to be available at a time. Each user is inserting into / selecting out of the same GTT and their results are wrong.
I'm the back end Oracle developer at this place and I'm having difficulty translating this issue to the front end ASP team. When this web page is accessed, I need it to start a new session, not reuse an existing session. I want to keep the same connection, but just start a new session... Now I'm losing it.. Like I said, I'm the back end guy and all this web/connection/pooling front end stuff is magic to me.
The GTT isn't going to work unless we get new sessions. How do we do this?
Thanks!

Thanks!You may want to try changing your GTT to 'ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS' and have the .Net app use a transaction object.

HT4798 How can I create/ set multiple Mac IDs if the same Macbook is required to be used by Multiple users?

Can Anyone let me know if have to alllow multiple users with their own apple ids for the same macbook pro, how do I need to go about it?

data.
At least your query seems to get data where MODIFIED_BY IS NULL, doesn't it?
So if the reccount is>0 there is a reason to inform your employees.

You need to create a user account for your wife (or yourself depending on who has the current user account). When syncing, each of you should sign in as a separate user, login to iTunes and then sync. I had this problem when my sister got an iPhone. When we did her initial sync, everything on my iPhone showed up on hers. Apple gave me this solution.

Multiple Users Syncing on Same Computer

Is it possible to allow multiple users to sync their Palm Pilots to their individual oracle calendar account on the same computer? I have fifteen palms syncing on the my computer and I want each of them to connect to a different oracle calendar username.
Thanks

Hi,
if you really want to be sure, that there is no confusion when synchronizing the iPad or your 4G you should create a second iTunes library. Just hold down the Shift button when opening iTunes. You'll be asked if you want to create a new library, or open an existing one.
This way you can switch between the libraries and no one of your data will be loaded on the iPad or vice-versa.
It shouldn't be a problem if the iPad is not synced with iTunes for 3-4 months.

How to restrict login for multiple users having same Role

Our Web Application is deployed on Tomcat 5.5
The requirement is ?
There are roles in application like "operator", "admin"?
There are multiple users created for each of the above role.
When one user of "operator" role is logged in, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, if user did not log out & application gets close, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, it should not allow to login for multiple requests of same user
(using another browser instance...)
Is it possible using session object?
But, using session object, it will create separate objects for different users,
So here I will not be able to restrict session object creation rolewise.
Also, how to retrieve these multiple session objects created for different users on server?
If anyone is having the solution please reply as soon as possible,
Thank you.

To tell you the truth, this is a stupid requirement. It must be an extremely fragile application.
In any case, you will have to write your stuff for that. Probably a filter that on login, logout, and session expiration checks, makes, or removes entries in a DB (using a synchronized resource to prevent race conditions) or possibly even simply in an application context object.
