Paritions for different OS Xs...

I am new to macs as of a year, and although I have much of it down, the partition world of macs I know nothing of. First off, how does one partition, is disk utility the best way?
Secondly, can I add/repartition my hardrive without entirely formatting it? I know in windows this is not possible unless you have a 3rd party program.
The reason I want to partition is for mutliple Mac OS X's. I want to have both panther and tiger on my macbook pro. Once I successfully partition my hardrive in two parts, can I install tiger and panther on a seperate partition easily? I assume just restart and hold the option key to select which drive correct? Finally, just in case it is different from windows, if one partition goes really really bad, it wont effect my other one correct?
Thank you and sorry for the amateurish questions,
TM

There's no Intel version of Panther so you can't install that on a MacBook Pro, partition or no partition. 
iPartition (link) will allow on the fly re-partitioning but I'd certainly recommend having full back-ups before doing it.

  • Using multiple apple id's for different purposes

    We are a family of 4 with numerous devices. Here's the setup we've been using to manage different aspects of our apple life!
    Each of us has an individual apple id, which we use on our individual devices for storage/backup, photo stream, facetime, calendar etc
    We have one apple id, used on all devices for all app store/itunes purchases
    We entered this id on each device with everything turned off except "find my iphone". This way we could be logged into the find my iphone app with one id and be able to see all our devices.
    This has worked really well for us as a family. Well, yesterday my kids updated their phones (one 5 and one 4s) to ios 7. I have not done it yet. It does not seem to allow for the above setup, specifically where "find my iphone" is concerned. When I enter in that specific apple id as an additional icloud account, it doesn't offer the option of find my iphone. My ios 6 device says "only your main account can use photo stream, documents & data, and backup". Their device adds "find my iphone" to this list.
    Does anyone know if this is a specific change apple made, or something that went wrong when initially setting up their updated phones.
    TIA!

    Thanks for your reply. But what I don't understand is, can I no longer have multiple icloud accounts, to be used for different purposes? Like I said, we have been using one apple id/icloud for storage etc and one for find my iphone.

  • [SOLVED] how to use diffrent iptables rules for different ppp account?

    x86 plantform run arch linux system , have two network interface etn1 eth0 .eth1 connect to internet. eth0 connect to other terminals through switch. want use different iptables rules for different pppoe account .also want to know how to forbidden more than one terminals established pppoe link use same account at the same time .

    (You establish PPPoE sessions over the local network to the Arch machine? Which then routes the traffic?)
    first question ,yes that is exactly what i am done. second question i also have a small  scripts on windows pc to solve routes traffic problem
    route -p delete 0.0.0.0
    route -p add 192.168.9.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.9.1
    route -p add 0.0.0.0 mask 0.0.0.0 192.168.22.0
    but after a while i found scripts is not necessary because windows always attempt to use PPPoE sessions as default internet connection local connection is also ok
    and use  -i pppX in my iptables rules dose not  solve my problem , because same account start PPPoE session could be marked as ppp0 or ppp1. it is hard to identified which account start session.

  • Is there a way to create a custom screensaver with pics/slides that display for different amounts of time?

    Is there a way to create a custom screensaver with pics/slides that display for different amounts of time? Or even add a "video slide" into the screensaver?
    My business has 3 TVs displayed in our lobby, each with its own apple TV and they are all linked to the same photo stream. Currently the Atv screensaver displays the photostream pictures of our products for the default 3 seconds. We just added pics/slides that now display messages and useful info for our customers but I want that info to be displayed for a longer period of time than the pictures to give people a chance to read it.
    I tried using flickr and powerpoint as a work around but no luck.  I created a slide in powerpoint with play length of 15 secs and saved it as a wmv file.  I added that file to a "screensaver" set in flickr and pointed the Atv screensaver to that flickr set.  It still displays everything, pics and the wmv file at the default 3 sec.
    I know I can increase the duration of all pics in the screensaver to display for longer but the goal is to have the pics display at 3 secs and the info slides to display at 15 secs.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No that's not possible.
    If you have any suggestions that you think might enhance the Apple TV you can send Apple your feedback here 

  • Creation of forms in Custom list for different departments in share point online .

    Hello ,
    We are using office 365 E3 plan in our organization.Recently we got a requirement from the management to create forms for different departments.I will explain a bit more on requirement.
    We have three departments A, B & C .We want to create a form in such a way ,fields varies based on their respective department .If a form has 30 fields to fill , dept A fills
    only first 10 fields which they need and will forward the form to next dept to fill remaining fields.Here when Dept A forwards the form the first 10 fields has to be hide for other depts .when Dept B and C logged into their accounts to fill the form only their
    fields need to be available in the form and remaining options has to hide .After filling all fields from different dept . After filling the forms Dept A can see all the fields to check the data .
    Any one can please help me out how to initiate the process to meet this requirement.

    The simlest approch for you is to create 3 different list with 3 different forms. But you can update their connection string to store the data(xml) in same list or different list 
    Or try below:

  • HR Authorisation Management for different companies in the same client

    Hi,
    Could anyone please help in this....
    My client has two companies. They want to restrict the authorisation to both the companies so that no one can see each other companies data and at the same time access tha data.
    For Eg, there are two payroll officers, each in both the companies, If i give authorisation to run Payroll driver(PC00_M40_CALC), anyone of them can run payroll for any of the companies. (though,their Payroll area is different). There are many restrictions to be maintained like Maintance of Master data, Maintanance of OM structure as assignement of position, running Payroll, viewing the payslip etc...
    How can this all be restricted so that, the respective  companies can view and access their own data without interfering in to the other company.
    I could only find object P_PYEVRUN which helps me restrict to view the created documents of posting for other company code.
    Can anyone put light on how i should proceed further... I heard we can restrict HR master data, but what all i know is we can restrict at infotype level. My problem is, two persons should access PA30(each from different companies), but should not be able to edit other companies data.
    Thanks
    --Pranitha

    Hi ,
    If you are creating the another company undar the same client . then you can not use different no. range.
    or if you are going different client for different compnay code then you can use different number range for material master.

  • Exchange phone for different kind

    I just bought the Bionic a couple days ago and I'm completely dissatisfied with the phone.  Can i exchange it for a different phone like the Razr?  What is the process of doing this at the store and what time frame do I have to take care of it?  Recieved phone on 11/17/2011.  I heard that this is an extended period to return/exchange a phone due to the holidays, cause I know it was 14 days, but now it has changed.  I realize that i would probably have to pay a restocking fee of $35.00 when returned, but want to know exactly what needs to be done to exchange it for different phone entirely.  Any help will be appreciated.
    I had another question about exchange.  If I purchased over the phone on 11/16/2011 and recieved the phone the next day on 11/17/2011 instead of in the store, would I have to send back my bionic first before I could get the Razr as exchange or would they send me the Razr and have me send back the bionic when the Razr arrives, so at least I have a cell phone until then.  Thanks again

    you have 14 days to schange the phone
    you can only do this ONE time
    you will pay the restocking fee and any cost difference
    you should be able to do it all in store
    this all assume you bought it from verizon and not a 3rd party such as amazon/wirefly/ect

  • Leave Quota generation with diifferent rules for different countries

    Hi,
    I have the following requirement need help in achieving this.
    Employers must grant 10 days paid leave to employees that worked for six consecutive months from the time of hiring and who worked on not less than 80 per cent of all schedule work days. This paid leave may be taken consecutively or separately. Where an employee's application to take paid leave will hinder the normal business operations, the employer may require the employee to take such paid leave at a different time.
    The number of days of paid leave available to employees increases in proportion to employees' length of service as set forth in the below table.
    Years of Service  0.5  1.5  2.5  3.5   4.5   5.5   6.5+
    Paid Holidays         10    11  12   14    16    18    20
    The right to annual paid leave expires after two years. In other words, annual paid leave left over from one year may be carried over and taken the next year only. For example, if an employee is awarded 10 days paid leave after their first 6 months of employment; those paid holidays will become invalid after 2.5 years of employment. Use them or lose them.
    Simply put, holidays from one year can be carried over to the next year, but not to the third year. So, if you don't take your leave from one particular year within 12 months of that year ending, you will lose that first year's allowance.
    Employee can take leave encashment of holiday leave only when leaving their employer. It is not legal for companies to buy up the holiday leave of those still working for the firm.
    In my organization one PSG grouping has been used for all countries, it wont be possible to change the grouping now. In such a case how can we provide different rule for different country without customizing the Leave module.
    Do we have to use any PCR for this, if yes which??

    Hi,
    Use QUOMO Feature to give different entitilement to employees.
    Leave entitlement as per seniority can be configured in base entitlement.
    Keep validity and deduction period for 2 years by using :Relative postion" option in validity and deduction period table.

  • Hi I have two questions. I am using NAS 4.1 and was wondering is it possible to set a different session timeout for different users? How is the session timeout set? Thanks, YS

     

    <i>I am using NAS 4.1 and was wondering is it possible to set a different session timeout for different users?</i>
    Um, there is no such thing as NAS4.1.
    I'm assuming that you mean NAS4.0 (maybe NAS4.0sp1?). If so, then the session timeouts are specified in the session section of the NTV configuration files.
    AFAIK, you can specify session timeouts on a per user basis.

  • Vendor Name Appearing Different for Different Line Items in FBL1N

    Hi,
    I am executing FBL1N and changing the layout to include the Vendor Name in the line items. But when the line items are appearing, the Vendor Name is appearing different for different documents. I wish to see from where the system is picking up the name, so that I can rectify this. But since the layout is being changed after the report is executed, the debug window is taking me in this. Can someone help me please how to debug so that I can see from where the name is coming?

  • How can I run the report for different input values at the same time?

    Reports version: Report Builder 6.0.8.13.1
    Oracle version: Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.0.0
    I want to run the same report for different input parameter values and spool each o/p to different file and ftp to a server. For this, as a first step, I am spooling different input values in to a file, reading those values through a loop and calling the report for that input values. Each report run/execution is taking 15 minutes. Total report execution is taking approximately 4 hours (assuming 16 different input values) to complete. So I have to wait 4 hours to see ALL outputs.
    I would like to run the report parallel for ALL the input values and I should be able to see the ALL outputs with in 15 or 16 minutes.
    In my shell script, I added & symbol at the end of the report call to start/run the job in the background. Due to this the control passed to the next step after the report call. At this place I have an ftp command to send the output file to a different server and it is giving error some thing like “o/p file is not available/created yet". This is due to the fact that report writer is NOT yet completely started/initiated or it is NOT completed the spooling.
    How can I run the report at the same time for all the input values and save the time?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kishore.

    Increase the number of server engines running right now it seems there is only one engine running ,increase it to 4 or 6
    and then atleast 4 or 6 reports will run simultaneously.
    For FTPing the output add to your sript to check whether it is locked and if not then only try to ftp .
    Also for more better functionality read the document (chapter 15 ) for 10g reports for its new fuinctionality.

  • Different passwords for different share points on 1 server?

    On a lion server I have two share points.
    A 'general' is accessible for all users, a 'confidential' is for a select group of users.
    The permissions are set and the select group have their server access password in their key chain.
    The server password is stored in a separate key chain ie. not in the login key chain.
    The select users connect to the server and allways mount the 'general' share point.
    The 'confidential' share point is mounted only when needed and unmounted afterward.
    Problem is when the users walk away from their computer and forget to lock the computer or to completely disconnect from the server, which is generally very inconvenient because of open documents.
    "Unmounting" the confidential share in my setup is not really putting it away securely because at that moment, anyone can sit down at that computer and mount 'confidential' because the login credentials were already given when mounting 'general'.
    Is there any way, lest having Parallels running another Lion server that shares the 'confidential' mount point, to force users to enter a password before 'confidential' can be mounted WHILE 'general'  IS ALREADY MOUNTED?
    In other words, can credential exchange be tied to share point mounting time rather than to server connection time and thus be different for different shares and allow for share-specific unmounting, effectively locking it away?

    Has nobody done this before?
