Q regarding two users in one PC with one account

Hi,
Me and my wife share a home PC.
Each one has its own user and each one have its own music library in itunes.
We both have use the same itunes account to purchase music.
I've purchased quite a few apps for my itouch and recently for my new iPhone 4 and noticed that some of the apps --not all, though-- appear on my wife's itunes library.
The question is this: She will be getting an iPhone 4 soon and will want some of the same apps I've already purchased. Since we share the same itunes account, can we both use the same purchased apps on two iPhones (one in each user on the same PC)?
Or should I buy again the apps she wants FROM her user (but same itunes account)
Why do I only see some of the apps I've purchased (from my user) on her itunes user?
Please help me understand this?
Thanks

If you share an itunes account, then you can certainly share the apps.
I don't know how you manage your itunes libraries, so I don't know why all apps don't appear in both libraries.
You can redownload apps for free.

How to turn two users into one?

Hey there!
As I selled my MBP last month I copied all its datas to my iMac via migration assistant and created a new user for it. So I have now two accounts with different photos, documents etc.
My problem now is how to turn these two users into one?
I want all my photos appear in Aperture of my first user, I want all my documents appear in "Documents" of the first user and so on..
Is it able? If yes, how could I realize it?
Thanks for your support!
René
PS: 2 Users on iMac -> 1 User on iMac.

Thanks for your help at first.
But you usually can't "merge" two "normal" user accounts successfully. If both accounts have data for the same application, it will be very difficult or impossible to merge them by copying files & folders.
I cannot merge them.. So there is the question how to copy all medias from Aperture to my other Aperture medias?
Can I export my whole medias and import in at the other users Aperture? And how? #
Edit: I dont want to have two different libraries at all.. I want them to be together in just one..

Question - how do I combine two users into one?

I have migrated a lot of data to a MacBook Pro using Migration Assistant, in the process two users have been created on the Mac. How do I combine the two users into one?

You don't. Just log in with one, choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /Users/ as the path. and drag the folder there; you'll need to provide an administrator password at some point.

Can I use iCloud to since many users to one account for my business and have me as a administrator to oversee and change peoples calendars?

Can I use iCloud to since many users to one account for my business and have me as a administrator to oversee and change my employees calendars and contacts??

Go to System Preferences and click Sign Out, select Delete at all the prompts, then sign back in with the changed ID? (Your iCloud data will disappear from your Mac when you sign out and choose Delete, but will still be in iCloud. Provided you are signing back into the same account your data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.)

Can you have multiple users for one account?

Can you have multiple users for one account? if so how do you set it up.
We are using it for our department and it would be great to see who created what form instead of it being all one name.

Each person should have their own account. You can easily share the forms with other people in your department. You will be able to see who the author of the form is.

Push profile with profile manager to two users on one mac

I have been testing profile manager today. Very interesting setup.
Unfortunately I ran into one problem:
I have a profile for a group setup as a push profile.
Two users of the group use the same mac.
So I logged in as the first user, browsed to .../mydevices and installed the trust profile. Then I clicked enroll to enroll the Mac.
Then I did the same with the second user on the same Mac.
So far so good.
When I log in again as the first user, the Mac isn't enrolled anymore. Strange but I went on.
I made a change to the profile with Profile Manager on the server. I saved the settings and checked Active Tasks to see wether it pushed the settings.
Displayed: Push Settings 1 of 2 in progress; 1 succeeded. first user sending, second user succeeded.
Then I enrolled the mac with the first user again. Then the task completes completely. But when I make a change to the profile again and push the new profile, the same problem occurs: the user last enrolled the mac gets the updated profile. The other user will not get the update.
Hopefully this wil be fixed in a next update.
Anyone got this working the right way / workaround?

Do not use a network or local user to "enroll" a device. Create a Enrolment profile in profile manager I have found that the way you are doing this will work fine. However I am having the problem that now that I have a OD with 350+ users with 100+ devices profile manager cannot keep up and cannot push the settings fast enough or just hangs on user profiles but not device profiles......

Connect two users under one user

Dear Sir,
I’m using oracle database 10.2g, with data (~40G) since 2005 for retail, account, time attendance.... systems,
1-i don't want to lose any of those data
2- I’m not going to change our application we just finish the whole implementation,
So I’m planning to split the database to two users one (historical data) and the other (Current data),
But i still want the finance, and credit control department to run the reports as it is.
So can i create a new user (middle_layer) with views to read the data from the two users (historical Data) and (Current Data)
And update, insert and delete on the data of (current data) user only?
For example:
SQL> connect middle_layer;
SQL> create view sales_order_header as
Select * from current_data.sales_order_header
Union all
Select * from historical_data.sales_order_header
SQL> select * from sales_order_header;
SQL> insert into sales_order_header values (...);
Thanks in advanced.
Regards,

Waiting any Idea,
CREATE USER data_history IDENTIFIED BY test;
CREATE USER data_current IDENTIFIED BY test;
CREATE USER middle_layer IDENTIFIED BY test;
CREATE TABLE data_history.sales_order_head_h;
CREATE TABLE data_current.sales_order_head;
CREATE ROLE historical_data_reader;
CREATE ROLE historical_data_loader;
CREATE VIEW data_history.sales_order_head AS
SELECT * FROM data_current.sales_order_head
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM data_history.sales_order_head_h;
GRANT SELECT ON data_history.sales_order_head
TO historical_data_reader;
GRANT INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON data_current.sales_order_head
TO historical_data_loader;
GRANT historical_data_reader TO middle_layer;
GRANT historical_data_loader TO middle_layer;
connect to middle_layer;
sql> select * from sales_order_head;
not working
sql> insert into sales_order_head;
not working too.
hope you can help.

Letting two users share one synced iCal Calendar

Hi all,
I'm looking for a way to share a single iCal calendar between two users, giving both users the ability to make changes to the calendar. Is this possible with Apple's iCal?
As an example, say I'd like to create a calendar for a trip itnerary. I'm in New York and my host ("Sara") is in San Francisco. I open my iCal, select the "Itinerary" calendar and enter a few events into it. Then, Sara opens her iCal and it automatically loads the "Itinerary" calendar, showing the events I've entered. Knowing San Francisco better than I do, she decides to alter my "Explore Chinatown" entry by extending the hours. The next time I open my iCal, I see the changes Sara made in the "Itinerary" calendar.
I'm sure this has probably been asked before, but even though I searched for it I couldn't find information answering this question. If you can point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!

Mac OS X (10.4.3) iCal Version 2.0.3

If I understand .Mac's services correctly, it
features the ability to let users subscribe to a
calendar, that is read another person's published
calendar, but NOT to make changes on that calendar
and then send these changes back to the publisher,
transparently. Unless I'm mistaken in this regard,
.Mac does not provide a means to let two users share
a single iCal calendar which they can BOTH make
changes to and BOTH keep synced with the other user's
calendar.
yes it does!!!!!!!!
simply log into the single .mac account from any number of computers and use isync. We do this every day between our office & home computers. The calenders in ical are idendical on both. Any alteration can be synced to .mac and the other computer will pick up the change next time it is synced. If there is a conflict, isync will ask which version (either .mac or the computer being synced) to use.
I think that you are confusing publishing calenders and syncing them
However, even if that can be done with .Mac (and if
it can, I'd love to learn how), I require a solution
that doesn't utilitze .Mac because in my particular
situation, the other user with whom I want to share
calendars does not have a .Mac subscription and will
not be able to get one.
The other user does not need a .mac account. The whole point is that they are syncing to the one (ie your) account.
Therefore, I need a solution
that does not rely on .Mac.
Wrong. It would seem that .mac would work.
The only problem is that all the calenders in ical will sync.

Two users on one library?

I want to put my iPhoto library on my Time Capsule, and I want my fiancee and I both to be able to use it. Will this create any problems? What if we both have it open at the same time?

What do you mean by 'use'?
As Larry says, iPhoto runs very slowly on a wireless connection.
There are two ways to share, depending on 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 move to the other machine. There, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
Remember iPhoto must be running on both machines 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. then:
Quit iPhoto in both accounts
Move the iPhoto Library Folder to an external HD set to ignore permissions. You could also use a dmg. Some folks have tried this on a Time Capsule with no luck.
On each machine in turn: Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting dialogue, select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new library location. 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.

Itunes Match: Two users on one computer.

My wife and I share one computer. We switch between users. I set up my itunes match under my user name, then I swtiched to her user and
tried to set up ITM. no go I get this message
Any advice?
Cheers

You can only associate each computer (not account on the computer) to one apple id. This is a restriction of match and automatic downloads from iTunes. See the iTunes terms and conditions and http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627.
I haven't tested it yet but I think if you have two user accounts on a machine and each has a different apple id, one of the accounts will have to login to match with the Apple ID that was authorized on the machine. I think if they do that, the user's iTunes library will be matched and combined with the library of the other user''s appleid only up in the cloud. You may or may not want that behavior. Also, I think if the user switches back to their AppleID, as long as they kept copies of their music locally that music though also in the cloud would still be accessible since it is on the disk. But anything showing with the cloud download icon (ie: stored only in the cloud) would disappear from the library until they login to match again since that music is not on the disk. The relogin to match will go thru steps 1..3 but much faster on each relogin and all music in match would show up again. I think the user can go purchase music on their id, login to match on the match id, and iTunes will auto match those purchases since they are added to the physical library.
Note, this is speculation on my part based on the fact that I was able to logout of my match ID and login to another ID to updated some aps from the app store. What happened was all my cloud music disappeared, local music stayed that was also present on the disk ws still there. I downloaded some apps, logged out, and logged back in with my iTunes match apple id and everything came back.
I would caution not to do this on an iOS device. On there, if the music is not in the cloud library when logging in and out of match across id's, it may be deleted. Also, the relogin on the iOS device, for me at least with 13,000+ songs, takes 20 minutes on an iPhone 4S.

Issue in workflow workitem that gets triggered to two users at one time.

Hi All,
Below are the query details:
Module: HR
Area:      Workflow
Process: Hiring
There is an workflow in HR module that is triggered when an hiring action is run against an candidate.
There are two or three maximum approvers which is based on the position to which the candidate is hired.
Issue:
During the hiring process some times the workitem is getting triggered to two users at once.
One is the actual approver who should receive the workitem in his UWL and other is the user of our service center who is no where involved in the approval process.
Analysis Done:
We checked the workflow log and found that the actual approver's ID is getting displayed under agent and workflow is complete. But the other user's ID is no where shown in the log but he has received an workitem in his UWL that makes the issue still confusing.
Awaiting for experts suggestions.

Reply to Susan Questions:
You say that 'the workitem is getting triggered to two users at once' - do you mean that there are two workflow instances that are being kicked off at the same time when the hiring action is performed? Or is it that the workflow is generating two tasks that go to these different users?
Ans : There is a single task attached to the activity.
Is this a custom workflow?
Ans : Yes.
Are you certain that the erroneous task is only going to the user in the service center, or is it perhaps going to everybody (marked as a general task)?
Ans : The task is marked as general but the workitem is received by only one user of the service center at a time.
         As this issue has taken place 4 times in the past year all the 4 receiver were different belonging to different position.
Reply to Pavan Questions:
1. Did you try to check the SPRO settings with respect to Hiring Process ,is there any where based on the position does workflow is forwarding the workitem to the other user.
2. Check the other user Roles and in the Org Structure where he is located , there could be a possibility of wrong position holding.
Ans : We checked the org structure, but org structure of both the centers are different and independent there is no linkage    between the two.
*3. IF you are using custom workflow then check if any standard workflow is also getting triggered. Check *
Ans : Yes this is a custom workflow, but no other Standard workflow is being called.
4. Check in the SWEHR3 is any custom entries maintained.
Ans : No, entries are maintained in SWEHR3.
Additional Info :
The task that triggers the workitem has an send mail step before it.
The send mail activity is to notify receiver that there is an workitem lying in the UWL.This mail is received by the actual user and not by the other one.The next step is the task that creates workitem which gets triggered totwo different IDs.
This scenarios mostly has come up when the number of approver is 1. If the approver is more than 1 the workflow runs fine without deviating the workitem to any worng user.

How can I sort photos from two users into one

I have two users on my Mac and I am trying to get all my photos onto my new External hard drive. I want one user, one photo library stored on my external hard drive. Help!

If you have Aperture 3.3 or later and iPhoto 9.3 or later you can merge libraries with Aperture.
Otherwise the only way to merge Libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager

I tried to set up two users on one computer, now I can't make iTunes match work for either.

Lots of people seem to be having multiples user problems on iTunes, but I can't find a solution to mine so please help.
I got a new iMac. Switched it on. Connected to iTunes Match - all fine and dandy.
After a couple of weeks I decided I should follow Apple's advice and set up a separate user account on the imac for my wife. I connected to iTunes match using her user name and down loaded a bunch of her favourite music.
Naive fool that I was, I didn't realise I had fallen into Apple's moronic multi-user trap. Only one user on one computer can use it???? Why???
I thought that it was me being stupid so I switched everything off - including iTunes Match. Now nothing works.
If I log on with my iTunes ID and try to switch on iTunes Match it asks me if I want to add this computer, and then gives me the "This computer is already associated with an Apple ID - you can't use it for 90 days" message.
If I use my wife's iTunes ID, it asks her if she would like to subscribe for £21.99 a year.
The exact same thing happens whether I sign into the computer itself with my account or hers.
This is awe inspringly annoying. Please tell me how to fix this.
thanks.

At this time there is no "solution." You'll simply have to wait the 90 days to re-enable iTunes Match.
For now here is my suggestion. In your User Account, in OS X, sign out of whatever iTunes Store account you are signed in with. Then sign in with your store account and leave it at that. Now sign out of your OS X User Account, sign into your wife's OS X User Account and sign into the iTunes Store with her Apple ID (if necessary sign out of the account first).
Now, you can go back to your OS X User Account and attempt to enable iTunes Match. You will probably get the "wait 90 days" message. If so leave it, mark your calendar, and wait for the 90 days to expire. You can try contacting iTunes Store support at <https://expresslane.apple.com> if you wish, but I really do not know how useful that will be.
Incidentally, you get the message to pay for the service when trying to enable it on your wife's Apple ID because the service has not been purchased using that Apple ID. iTunes Match is designed to be a single-user service that is never signed out of and is associated with one, and only one, Apple ID and a regional store.

Sharing photo's, two users on one computer

Hi,
I have two user's on my computer, both with different log on's etc. How can another user look at my photo's that are currently in aperture with out having to move folders around. Is there an easier way then just making multiple copies and saving them else where?
Can this also be done with iTunes so that we can share music without having to make duplicates?
Thanks.

You could probably move your Aperture library to a location outside your home folder, where the second user could open the library. You'd need to be careful about permissions, and I'm not 100% sure how it would work.
For iTunes, sure you can do it. Often it's easiest to just put the songs in a shared location, and have both people maintain their own iTunes libraries (thus playlists and playcounts aren't shared, but the song files themselves are). You can also share the library file, but it's more difficult.
Not too tough to do, but I don't feel like typing it up and helping with troubleshooting (especially in an Aperture forum)... do a Google search; it's been documented fairly extensively out there and I'm sure MacUpdate also has tools to help with this.
