My wife has a separate User Login. How can she access photos and documents on my User Account?

What do I need to do under my wife's user login so she can have access to photos and documents on my user account?

Move the data you want to share to the hard drive level Users/Shared folder and she will be able to access them. You may have to do a Get Info (command - I) on the folder and add her with read/write permissions, then select the gear at the bottom and Apply to enclosed items.

  • How can I access photos and videos saved to the iCloud?

    How can I access photos and videos saved to the iCloud? I backed up my iphone to the Cloud but now the files are nowhere to be found.
    I had to reset all content and settings in order to troubleshoot an issue. Before I did this, I backed up the iphone to icloud. When I reprogrammed the phone, I had to set it up as a new device and individually sync apps and other items from itunes. But by doing this, I somehow lost some videos and can't seem to find where they would have been saved/backed up. Can anyone offer any guidance?

    You can't view photos and videos on icloud (except for shared photo stream pics).  iCloud merely sync photos between devices using the stream.  If you don't have photo stream turned on, then the only place photos in the camera roll are located are in a backup.  You would have to restore from the backup.  But be warned that many users have ended up losing their photos when performing a restore, for whatever reason. 
    What you should do in the future is always sync photos/videos to a computer for storage, don't leave them on a device or trust icloud to somehow store them.

  • How can I open photos and documents in Finder?

    When recently trying to open photos and documents in Finder, I am receiving a message: The application Preview cannot be opened- 1712.
    I read several discussions that suggested to delete the apple.com.Preview.plist
    I accessed my Library and have two folders:
    "com.apple.Preview.LSShare...eList.plist"
    "com.apple.Preview.Sandbox...List.plist"
    Thank you for any assistance.

    Try repairing permissions before deleting .plist files...
    Launch Disk Utility located in your Applications > Utilities folder.
    Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:   Repair Disk Permissions
    This can take awhile so don't be alarmed.
    Restart your Mac after Disk Utility is finished then try opening photos and documents in the Finder.

  • How do I share photos and music between different user accounts on the same macbook

    How do I share photos and music between different user accounts on the same Macbook? i.e. I want all to be able to access family photos when logged into their respective accounts. Same goes for the iTunes library. Hope this is possible...
    Thanks!

    To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
    To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
    If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support articles linked below.

    iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
    There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

  • I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account?

    I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account? When it says 'download the converted file' I choose a location on my PC and click, but nothing happens. It seems that it can only save the converted file to my online account. I went to my online account but I see no way to look for the file

    Hey Fabrizio,
    You might need to sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" using your Adobe ID credentials to convert your PDF file to Word.
    Do you get the 'download' prompt?
    Also, you can find the converted files by clicking at the 'Files' tab. 
    Please try the same using a different browser and check.
    Hope to hear from you.
    Regards,

  • I have apps from old work account that I can't remember the password to. On my personal phone those apps keep showing up but I can't update them because I can't remember the password. How can I delete them and download on my new account?

    I have apps from old work account that I can't remember the password to. On my personal phone those apps keep showing up but I can't update them because I can't remember the password. How can I delete them and download on my new account?

    Tap and hold an app until they all start jiggling and an X appears in the icon's top left corner. One by one tap the X to delete the app. when they are all gone you are free to buy them again with your own account.

  • How can i store latitude and longitude (of registered user locations) in sql server and how can i query it for finding locations inside X radius from point y (or any user)?

    Hello
    In my app (WP 8.1) i have to store user location (lat,lon) in sql db so how can i store that location detail? And i also have to find all the location which are inside certain radius X from another user location, How can i do this?
    Any Sample project or code or any blog post?
    P.S. I use sql server 2012.

    If you need to do spatial queries like the one you mentioned you'd need to store it as a spatial geography type. For points, a simple SQL INSERT statement using the Point() method would do it. Example here:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb933811.aspx For locations inside a radius, you'd use STDistance() method. All of the methods for the geography data type are documented here:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb933802.aspx and can be used in ordinary T-SQL statements.
    If you need to use the SQL Server spatial library in your .NET application direct, Alastair has some nice blog posts, like this one:
    https://alastaira.wordpress.com/2011/08/19/spatial-applications-in-windows-azure-redux-including-denali/ , he even wrote a book. Or search the answers in this forum.

  • How can I sync settings and programs between 2 user accounts on the same mac?

    Hi,
    I have created 2 user accounts on my mac, one for personal, and one for work (but both for me). It's primarily for organization, keeping files separate, but also because I have two separate Dropbox accounts and only one can be installed per user. I want to know if there's a way to sync selected programs, files, and settings between the two accounts? Basically, I'd like to have the same programs and settings for both user accounts, and just different files.
    I can't seem to find any info on this, but maybe I'm using the wrong terms!
    Thanks!
