One User - Two Systems

Is it possible to set up user accounts so that I can use the same user account in both Tiger and Leopard on the same computer? I like Leopard and want to use it as much as possible but Ihave to switch back and forth due to several mail, software and printing issues, and I would like to use apps like Safari and iTunes in both without having to rebuild or copy libraries and bookmarks every time I update and then switch from one OS to the other. Has anyone found a way to do this?
Thanks in advance for any answers.

From Mac OS X 10.4, make a backup of that system's home folder, open the Terminal in the /Applications/Utilities/ home folder, and run the following:
ln -s '/Volumes/Leopard/Users/username/' /Users/symlink
replacing Leopard and username with the 10.5 partition's name and the short name of that user account. Next, open the Users folder on the hard disk, exchange the names of the symlink item and the folder with the house icon, log out, and log back in.
You should be able to see the 10.5 home folder from 10.4 to do this; the format of some files may have changed in Mac OS X 10.5, so this may not work as intended. You may want to modify the instructions so that only portions of the home folder are shared.

  • One user, two computers.

    Can I install CS3 Extendend on my Desktop and my Laptop to use at home and at school?

    Yes, the license agreement allows you to install the software on up to two computers, provided that is for the same user and that the software is not used simultaneously on both machines.

  • One user - two accounts.

    Hi,
    I have question regarding licensing.
    I have user. I bought CAL (User CAL).
    Now He wants another AD account. He test something and want to use two separate accounts.
    He will use them at the same time. He will be the only person that use those two accounts.
    Do I have to buy extra CAL?

    Hi Mariusz,
    It really depends on specific scenario.
    Now He wants another AD account. He test something and want to use two separate accounts.
    He will use them at the same time.
    If he only wants to log on to a computer locally using two accounts, then no license is required.
    Here is a blog below regarding when license is required I suggest you refer to:

    thank you in advance,

    Db.Yes its always better to not to import tables in SYSTEM user. So i suggest you to listout the tales which you have imported and drop those using 'DROP Table.. CASCASE' (be very carefull not to delete system's tables)
    However there is no conflict in functionality of oracle if you are not going to use.

  • Voice mail for one user with two extensions

    Environment:
    Cisco Unified CM Administration System version: 7.1.3.30000-1
    Cisco Unity Connection Administration Version 7.1.3.10000-68
    We have a user this year that will be wearing two hats and will have offices in two different locations. I have both extensions as a line on each phone. Now I just need to point both extensions to the same voicemail box or give the user two mail boxes. It seems that CM Administration only supports one voicemail box per user. I think it would be easier for the user to only have to check one mail box by having both extensions point to the same VM. How can I accomplish this?

    Hi Andy,
    Let's say the user has numbers 7005 & 8450 but we want only one mailbox
    @ 7005. There are a couple of ways to do this.
    In CUCM go to> Feature> Voicemail> Voicemail Profile and  create a new Profile called XXXX (whatever name you want) with a  Description called "XXXX username Mailbox" the Voice Mail Box Mask will be 7005> Save
    Then  via CUCM go to the Users Phones> under Directory Number Config for 8450> Voicemail Profile and change to XXXX (created previously in  above steps)>Update>Reset
    Now when a call routes via forward to Unity Connection it will reach the Mailbox @ 7005.
    Or in Unity Connection set up Alternate Extension so that 8450 is an Alternate Extension for 7005 etc.
    Cheers!

  • One R/3 system, two BW systems

    Hi all BW experts,
    we have two BW systems connected to one R/3 system.
    One of the two BW systems is not in maintenance by our development team.
    In the User-Exit EXIT_SAPLRSAP_001 the code implemented for the extractors is valid for both BW systems.
    My question is : it is possible in this EXIT to know which
    BW system is involved in the extraction?
    If i can know it, i can divide the ABAP code in two parts and to apply modifications only for the BW system developed by us.
    Thank you to everyone.
    Fabrizio

    Hallo Fabbrizio
    In your case you have to use SY-SYSID which is giving you the system ID.
    for example:
    Data: syst like SY-SYSID.
    syst = SY-SYSID.
    if syst = ...
    else.
    endif.
    the field SY-UNAME is returning the SAP USER which is suppose you are not interested.
    I hope this can help you

  • One Mac, Two Users, One shared Aperture Library

    Hello
    I recently bought a new DSLR camera. As the camera is much more advanced comapred to my former one I also wanted to improve my editing capabilties by switching from iPhoto to Aperture.
    I (USER 1) started Aperture, created a new library in the same directory my iPhoto library is stored in, chose "Import -> iPhoto library -> keep files in the original location"...a couple of hours later the library was indexed and usable.
    Now I wanted to take the next step. To optimize disk storage and to avoid duplicates the iPhoto library was used by two users, the imports, edits... one user made were available to the other user (on the same Mac) and vice versa. The idea was to do the same under Aperture. So USER 1 assigned "read & write" rights on my library file to USER 2 as well (as I said, file is stored in the same location as the iPhoto library where 2 users, 1 library already worked). I signed in as USER 2, started Aperture and first had to create a new library file. Then I changed the library file to USER 1's (shared) library. This worked in prnciple, however "Projects", "Faces"... were not displayed. Aperture showed as many blank fields as USER 1's library contains pictures. Some pictures were displayed after a couple of minutes but the system didn't appear as if it would also try to make the remaining pictures available. So I checked access rights on the library file again (USER 2 had all rights required), closed Aperture on USER 2, reopened Aperture under USER 2 and got the message, that access rights are not sufficient to access the library file of USER 1.
    What am I doing wrong? Could it be that what is possible under iPhoto (2 users, 1 Mac, 1 shared library file) is not possible under Aperture?
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Update:
    I installed Windows via Bootcamp, added a second partition to the system. It worked, Windows took ages to download all the required updates but anyway, it worked. So I started up again with OS X Lion, now splitting my OS X partition into two (than had 2 OS X and 1 Windows partition) and adding all my iTunes content to the second. Then I created a new Apperture libary on that second partition, imported all the projects into it and, hey, it worked as well, no files showed "unsupported file format" anymore. So I thought I was through it all...but only until I tried to start from the Windows partition again, it didn't work. Under OS X I could see the Windows partition and all it's content, however the Bootmanager didn't provide the option to startup with Windows. So I had to clean the second OS X partition again, deleting the Bootcamp partition and then doing all the painfull Windows installation again. Now I'm at the point where I have 1 Mac OS X Lion partiton and a Bootcamp partition containing Windows 7...
    Now my question: Could it be, that Bootcamp 4 under OS X lion can not run Windows on another partition than the second one? In other words: If I now split my OS X partition into two to have all the iTunes and Apperture content on this second partition, will the third partition (Bootcamp) again not work anylonger? The Bootcamp help is not very precise in this point, it only talks about the installation process of Windows 7 that is only running when there is only one OS X partition, it does not at all say that - after installing Windows on the Bootcamp partition - the OS X partition must not be changed to prevent Windows from "dying". Does anyone out there have any experience on this, what will happen if I now split my OS X partiton into two with the second partition only containing iTunes and Apperture content and "ignore ownership" enabled? WIll Windows die again or did I do something wrong with my first try?
    Thanks for your help in advance.

  • Load more than one user groups to system session variable GROUP from table

    hi, I found that the value of the system session variable GROUP can be assigned by setting a sql in initialization blocks.
    however, if there are some users with more than one user group.
    can this be done by table driven (using sql in initialization blocks) ?
    thanks !!

  • I want to share one user profile on one computer with two users

    I've been using 2 log-ins on my computer to avoid exposure on the web as administrator. I want to be connected to one user profile under a secondary log-in. How do I copy the user profile & where do I find it? Do I need to delete the profile I don't want? Is there a way to "meld the profiles"? Can I get access to edit so I can save some stuff from one & add it to the other?

    That doesn't exactly help. It tells you how to move a profile between machines, but not how to share a profile between two users, which is what Snarkle and I want to do.
    This seems to be a common application problem now that Microsoft have at last added proper user security to Windows - Mozilla isn't the only program set that's giving me problems. Methinks application designers have to bite the bullet and work out exactly what a "profile" is for the first time.

  • My iPhone has two identical options under "iTunes wi-fi sync" that are the same computer. I only have one user on my  computer, and I tried moving my iTunes file in Finder to organize it and now my library's not synced with my phone. Help?

    My iPhone has two identical options under "iTunes wi-fi sync" that are the same computer. I only have one user on my computer, and I tried moving my iTunes file in Finder to organize it and now my library's not synced with my phone. Help?

    I have the same problem. Right now my iPhone 5S shows 3 instances of the computer to which it is connected under Settings » General » iTunes WiFi Sync. I'm having problems connecting and syncing, and this is probably the cause: the phone chooses one of these connections, and it isn't the one that's actually in use. What's probably happening is that the phone and computer establish a connection using a dynamic IP address, the address becomes "disassociated" due to error, another address is associated, the phone retains each address/link, and each link is displayed as if it represents a separate computer (the fact that the name of the computer is identical is ignored, as the only thing that is considered important is the IP address). But that's all conjecture. More important, I'm not sure how to fix the problem. A network reset doesn't do it.

  • Two SRM systems connected to One back end system

    Hi..
    Note: I have posted this message earlier ......but couldn't find that. I am just reposting the message:
    In our quality environment, we have two SRM and two backend systems. One for testing purpose and other for training purpose. We are planning to remove one back end system and connect both the SRM systems to one backend system.
    1. Is it possible to have this landscape?
    2. In SRM & R/3 we can define two RFC connnections but from R/3 side, I am not sure how the system will determine the respective RFC connection during GR or any other process.
    3. Are there any other difficulties?
    We are in SRM 4.0 using Extended classic scenario. We are using SRM for processing shopping cart, Po and confirmations.
    Please advise.
    Thanks.

    Hi Prashanth,
    is  very much possible.
    for this you need to configure the partner profiles.
    need to define port
    need to configure inbound paramters and outbound parameters.
    we20 - create partner profiles.
    define outbound parameters and inbound parameters of the message type.
    we21 - define port.
    under Transactional RFC.
    and create a distribution model and add message type.
    revert back to me if any problem still you find.

  • Two portals (same SID), one R/3 System - changing portal client number?

    We have one R/3 system but two portals.  One is EP6, the other is EP7 and is due to replace EP6.  On installation of version 7.0 we had to keep the SID the same on both portals.
    Now we are having trouble with SSO into R/3 as the ACL in STRUSTSSO2 will only accept one unique SID with client number of 000.  However it does seem to accept the same SID but different client number.
    My question is, is there a way to change one portal generating the verify.der certificate using something other than default 000 client number?
    Is this messy?
    thanks.
    SiB

    Hi Simon,
    > is there a way to change one portal generating the verify.der certificate using
    > something other than default 000 client number
    > Is this messy?
    There is a way and it is absolutely not messy but the supported way; you just have to set the UME property "login.ticket_client" to some different value than "000" on the portal server in question (and of course you have to use this value on the ACL in the SSO target system).
    Also see https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/ep/singleSign-Onand+Cookies& -- checklist number 3 and http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e2/f71940d4558f5ce10000000a155106/frameset.htm
    I have just done this on my actual project, it's quite straight forward. Remember to restart the portal WAS after changing the value!
    Hope it helps

  • Two systems on one databses

    Hi,
    we are currently running our QA and DEV systems one one host and one sql server 2000.the systems version is 4.6c.we are going to upgrade our systems to ecc6.I would like to know if this configuration (two systems on one host and one DB - <u>not mcod!!!!</u>) is supported on ecc6 and on sql server 2005.in notes 28392,171929 it is mentioned only regarding windows 2000 and sql server and sql server 2000.
    Regards,
    Moshe

    Ah - Ok - I got it:)
    This configuration is supported since SQL Server 7.0 and I don't find any note or information telling, that it's no more support on 2005, so I would say YES, it is supported.
    However, to get a definite answer I'd open an OSS call under BC-DB-MSS and ask the guys from SAP.

  • Is a one server with two system IDs configuration valid when using MSCS

    As the last step in my upgrade from BW30b to BI70 I need to introduce Java.
    My newly upgraded ABAP BI70 system is running on a Microsoft Cluster and it was my intention to add Java as a separate system(SID).  When doing this it appeared I would be able to add the two systems to the same cluster group by selecting "Support of multiple SAP systems in one MSCS cluster" but this resulted in errors and I have found note 967123 which tells me not to chose this option when using MSCS.
    It appears my options are a separate server all together or an ABAP+Java install which limits our upgrade options on each stack.
    If anyone has found a work around for this I would be very interested.
    Thank you

    Hi Helmut,
    Not sure how the D-Link works, but it looks like it has Wireless 802 also from the specs, so the Ethernet & Wireless would each have an IP & different MAC addies.
    I always thought one Mac address can have only one IP address.
    Nope, you can prove this to yourself on your Mac, In Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations, highlight say Ethernet, Copy, give that another IP Manually if you wish...

  • One R/3 system connecting to TWO BW systems

    Hi,
    Well at first thought, i wouldnt go for the Landscape that you are suggesting. Because of obvious reasons:
    1. Performance issues while loading, on reporting.
    2. Data sources might work fine for one system and not for the other, then the whole setup is hit badly.
    3. Security and management of the 2 systems, will be a big task.
    4. Jobs would take a longer time if the Batch processes are not sufficient.
