Photos and multiple Facebook accounts

I switched from iPhoto to Photos but am missing the multiple Facebook accounts option. As a family we've stored all our photos in Apple's Photos on our iMac. At times we like to share photos to our own Facebook timelines. With iPhoto this was simple. In Photos it seems we have to remove the current FB a/c under Apple preferences, and then add the other one.
Please let me know if there is an easier way.  Surely Apple is working on this?

Why not just access Facebook with the web browser in the time being?  I just tried that, and you can just click the "Account" button at the top, then "Log Out".  Ta-Da!

  • Photos and multiple iMac Accounts

    In the new Photos application can I share a single Photo library among multiple users?

    I'm afraid from what you describe that the hard drive is dead.

  • Can I use multiple Facebook accounts when sharing photos with Photos

    With iPhotos I could set up multiple Facebook accounts and choose which account to share to...that does not seem to be an option with Photos.

    Terence,
    I do not see the Accounts in preferences of iphoto? Where is this?

  • How do I have multiple Facebook accounts on my iPad?

    Hi,
    I'm a new iPad user and I'm wondering whether we can have more than
    one Facebook account on the device?

    Each account needs to have a separate address - email address.

  • Back to My Mac and multiple iCloud accounts

    I have an iMac at home and a Macbook I travel with.  Previously I had just one mobileme account, and BTMM has worked like a champ.  I now have multiple iCloud accounts in my household, as my wife mostly uses the iMac and I have the macbook.  I very much enjoy the seemless sharing of iCal calendars and the syncing of email accounts over multiple macs and mobile devices.  Trouble is to make BTMM work you have to enter preferences-->iCloud and log both computers into the same iCould account.  Surely apple must have forseen this sort of problem.  I as an indivdual if you have TWO computers and no one else uses them, it's no big deal to have everything on one iCloud account.  But with multiple users, with multiple email accounts, that's just not realistic.  I thought I may have found the work around when going to System Prefs-->Users & Groups-->and adding multilple Apple User IDs, but that doesn't work.
    Any one else frustrated with this?  Similar issues with Photo Stream, it would be nice to view other photo streams.  Anybody got any ideas?  Other than logging out of my iCloud account when away....getting all the warnings about deleting stuff off my mac with regard to iCloud..... and logging into my wifes iCloud account?
    thanks
    x

    I share this frustration. Over last weekend I needed to leave my computer at home while we went across the country to visit family. I found out there I needed to access my computer and finish an item before I was to return. We brought my wife's MBAir with us just in case, and good thing too. Either way, I was required to sign out of iCloud for her, then sign in as myself. This deleted all her iCloud contacts, calendar, mail, etc. Then it had to reload mine, then when finished i had to do that process all over again for her account. It would seem a quite simple task to allow multiple iCloud accounts to view a set of computers set to any of the iCloud Apple ID's. There is a function similar to this on my TimeCapsule. I can put both of our AppleID accounts onto that device and both of us can see our TimeCapsule and all attached storage while away from home (brilliant by the way), great for accessing movies I have stored on the TimeCapsule. Any results on how to make this work? Thanks

  • Photos and Multiple Computers

    So the way I had things set up in iPhoto is my iPhoto library sat on a 4x2TB Raid 5 array that is attached to a mac mini running Yosemite Server.  Worked fine for the Macs in the house.  It seems I have to change this with Photos?
    When I try to access the Photos library from a Mac where the library is mounted on a drive over the network, it says the library can not be opened nor repaired.  Did something change here where Apple now wants the library on the local disk and won't allow access over a network drive?
    Makes sense, as one of the benefits with Photos is the cloud integration and local Photo libraries can access other pictures through iCloud Photo Library, but I really want to keep SSD space on my office Mac Mini and Macbook Air freed up.
    So...  Is there a way to access ONE Photos library for all my Macs or do I have to create local libraries and rely on the cloud for access across the Macs?

    So it seems that when I create local libraries on the other Macs, the libraries are full size?  It would be nice if you have multiple macs, to have one be designated having the full library (along with the cloud) and the others have access to the thumbnails and lower res pictures unless you elect to grab it down from the cloud.  Duplicating libraries seems like a total waste.
    Oh and sharing.  My wife now can't access the Photo library from here accounts because it's a different Apple ID.  Ideally Family Sharing would help with this, but there's no apparent way.
    Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

  • Photos 'share' change Facebook 'Account'

    I have deleted and then changed "Facebook" integrated settings and also restarted the iPad. But !, it's stuck on the same account to 'share' Photos from the iPad's Photos App. How can I change the iPad's Photos App setting for a different Facebook Account ??? o_O , I asume it's nothing to do with my Apple ID

    Turns out that a disconnected Facebook account acts differently than an active one. I had to reactivate the old account, log on with the iPad and then the Settings > Facebook > Delete Account actually worked. Then, I changed the Primary email on Facebook and finally, I could start a 'new' Facebook account on the iPad. All is normal now.
    Having or not having the Facebook app was not a factor in this.
    The Apple support rep also suggested a complete restore-to-new would work but in my case, this wasn't necessary.

  • Problem with iTunes and multiple user accounts in Windows

    I am running iTunes on a PC (Windows XP) and have multiple user accounts. When I switch between user accounts and try to open iTunes, I get a message that tells me I can't open the program because another user is using it. Is it really true that I can only have iTunes open in one user account at a time on a PC with multiple user accounts ?!? If not, what am I doing wrong?

    You are right, can only have one open. You have to log out of a user before logging in to another user to use iTunes. Do not use the fast user switching ability of Windows.

  • Apple TV G2 and Multiple iTunes Accounts

    In our household we have multiple iTunes accounts so that everybody can purchase and download their own content for the various computers and devices that we own.
    In the old Apple TV each persons iTunes account could be setup to allow streaming from their computer ( while only one could be setup for syncing and purchasing )
    In the new Apple TV it would appear that you can only setup Home Sharing to a single iTunes account and that there is no way to see the other iTunes accounts on our network.
    Is there something I am missing here? How can we stream content from more then one iTunes account to the new Apple TV.

    I too suffer from the same problem.
    My wife, son, and I maintain separate iTunes accounts/libraries on our individual Macs. I just purchased the new 2nd Generation Apple TV to replace my 1st Generation one. We set up Shared Libraries on each of our Macs, which we were able to browse/play on our 1st Gen Apple TV. My wife's account was set up on the device for the purpose of renting/purchasing content.
    Now with the 2nd Gen Apple TV I no longer see any option for associating Shared Libraries, or browsing anything other than a single iTunes library because of it's reliance on the Home Sharing feature. Also, I can't easily pair up my iPhones/iPod Touch/iPad copies of the Remote App unless they too are set up using Home Sharing on a single iTunes account. Sure, with the promise of AirPlay we may one day be able to stream video (we can do audio now) from all our Macs, but without the ability to browse all our libraries from one simple interface (like we could on the 1st Gen) the newest Apple TV has limited usefulness for our family.
    I don't suppose someone out there might know of a hidden method to re-enable this feature, or if it might be released in a patch in the not-too-distant future. I'm going to give it a few days, but this device will likely find its way back to the Apple Store it came from (minus the re-stoking fee).

  • ICloud and multiple iTunes accounts

    Not sure where I should ask this question but how will I be able to keep choices in music, apps and pictures separate on each device?  Right now, my wife has a separate iTuns account for her stuff I have a separate account for my stuff.  She has an iPhone 4 and an iPad2 and I have an iMac and an iPhone 4.  How do we keep things separate for our devices but still share music photos and apps?  I want us to be able to pick from the same music, pictures and apps but I am not sure how to do that and I cant really find a good clear/simple answer.  We do not have MobileMe accounts as were are rather new apple users.

    I'd just sync stuff manually, so you can select what you each do and don't want on your respective devices. Apple invents all this whiz-bang-fantastic new stuff like iCloud that we're all supposed to love and use straight away to the exclusion of all else, but if they don't do what we want then what's the point of using them?
    The old ways of syncing will still work just fine and - despite the fact that I don't want all the same things on both my iPhone and iPad - to be honest, I don't want all my music, photos and documents on one of Apple's servers somewhere anyway. That somehow feels like a real invasion of my privacy. So all the time I can continue to sync manually with a USB lead, I'll do so.
    Just because Apple comes up with these new ideas doesn't mean that we all HAVE to use them!

  • How do you add multiple facebook accounts to iPhoto

  • Multiple calendars and multiple email accounts?

    How can I associate iCal calendars to Apple Mail accounts?
    Let's say I have two email accounts configured in Apple Mail ("home" and "work") and I have two calendars with the sames names. When I add an event to iCal, I want to use the matching email account for sending invitations, depending on which calendar I've selected. Is this possible? Otherwise my private email address might get used for invitations to work events and vice versa.

    Wow, does anyone know how to do this? I really need to have multiple calendars that reference multiple email accounts in iCal... Is there a trick on how to do this? Or, is there a better place to post so Apple puts this feature in the next software release?

  • Photos and new facebook albums and ios6

    I have an iphone 4s. I recently updated to to ios 6 and now i have lost my capability to upload new albums from my photos to the facebook app. i have deleted and added the app back, but the plus sign only shows up when I want to add photos to an existing album, not create a new one. I was able to do this before the update, but havent been able to since. Is anyone else expereicing this problem? Help!!

    Thank you so much for replying. However, I looked at the trackpad system preference and it does not give me the option, I believe, of turning off rotate, pinch zoom, etc. in the two finger section. I tend to rest my thumb on the trackpad so I can click or double click using my thumb. Photoshop requires many actions also that require you to use both fingers at once. That's where I am running into so much trouble. Any other suggestions would be deeply appreciated. Thanks!

  • ^ Edge Animate and Your Facebook account integration....

    Hello everyone, I am a young Indian designer. I have used Edge Animate to integrate your facebook account stats in it and with that I have performed an animation which is cool... Checkout that animation @ www.creativemantra.net/kaushiksavla
    correct link updated

    I'm watching this thread with intertest, because I am experiencing the same thing with an Edge Animate file brought into my Muse project. Everything previews in browser just fine... works as expected when I publish to Business Catatlyst. But when I export as html and ftp the files to my web host (not Business Catalyst)... everything BUT the Edge Animate animation works as expected. The EA simply does not play, even though it is set to 'autoplay'. A look in the site directory shows the necessary files 'in place'. I'm stumped...

  • Mac OS X maintenance scripts and multiple user accounts

    Hi everyone
    Just wondering how the default maintenance scripts scheduled to run in the early morning works with multiple user accounts. Our Macs at home all have multiple user accounts (one for each of us) and I'm wondering whether the scripts work their magic across all accounts (assuming the computer itself is switched on AND not asleep).
    Also, is the behaviour the same regardless of Mac OS X version? More specifically we're using snow leopard, lion, mountain lion, and maybe shortly mavericks.
    Thanks!
    Joe.

    The maintenance scripts run by periodic perform system tasks. They do nothing in a user's account (unless you modify the scripts or create your own). They are primarily designed for long lived systems (servers). There isn't any magic nor would a normal mac users find any differences whether they ran or not.
    In all the operating system versions that you mention, the scripts will run when the computer wakes, assuming that the computer was turned on before the prescribe times.
