Restore mailbox from different user

Hi
I got a new Mac. For some reasons I decided to start with a fresh Useraccount. For the most applications I was able to restore settings and mire from the former time machine backup of the old computer. But with Mail it doesn't work. It's not enough to restore user/library/applications support/mail...... . It's also not working to open mail, choose time machine backup from another disk. As it is a different user I can not restore anything.
How do I restore Mailbox from an other user properly?

Copying a query from different user group

masters,
is it possible to copy a query from different user group?
if so please tell me how
thnks!

The query made from SQVI is only intended for individual use. It cannot be transported and there is no concept of Global/Standard area. To be able to transport or share the query to other users is by converting it to SAP Query wherein the source of data will also be converted to an Infoset. Remember that is done in the Standard query area. To do this, go to SQVI-> click SAP Query then go to menu Query -> Convert Quickviews... Select your Quickview queries and provide and infoset name.

Mountain Lion: Copying mailbox from one user to another user on the same mac

When I bought the mac I had only one email address. Since then I have accumulated 3 more addresses. I created another User on the same MAC to seperate the personal emails from the 3 new email addresses, that I use for business.
There are some mailboxes from the 1st account that has business information in them that I want to move to the 2nd User account (with the 3 e-mail addresses). I though that I could save them in the dropbox and then save them into the 2nd User accounts like I did with the documents and spreadsheets, but this does not work.
I really need to separate the Family Personal email information from the Busines Information and I do not want to just send lots and lots of emails to the accounts to get them there.
I am not using Cloud at the moment because it created some syncing issues. Because the 1st User Account and email account is synced with an iPad and iPhone that my wife uses with an Apple ID. The 2nd User (and 3 mail addresses) are synced with my iPhone and a separate Apple ID. We have separate ID's because she did not want my personal & business contacts seeping into the family email accounts
I know that this is long, but I wanted to provide as much information as possible, so that I can resolve this.
Thanks in Advance

I spent quite a few hours after this was posted trying to figure it out and I did.
Select Mailbox > Export Mailbox. This asks you a location to export the mailboxes to. It just uploads the exported mailboxes into Dropbox.
Then change the User that I want to import the mailboxes into. Select Import and select the location of where you placed the folder in Dropbox. This then imports the mailbox into a folder called Import. You then drag and drop the copied mailboxes from the Import folder to the folder in the structure you have. If you decide to delete the folders from the import folder list, do this. You can also delete the copied folders from Dropbox if you wish.
Took a while, but I got there and I'm happy now....

How can I consolidate all photos from different users on one computer?

We just enable one computer to be the "Family" computer. I want to be able to consolidate all photos from the different users into one location. That way no matter wich user is login they can see and browse all the family photos. How can I do that? Do I need and external drive?
Thanks in advance?
MoMa

Move the iPhoto Library to the Users/Shared folder, or you can use an external disk formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
Merge the Libraries as Larry says, with the paid version of Library Manager.
In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Each account will have full access to the library, in fact, each account 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.

How do I access time machine from different user account

Hi there.
Last week I had to take my comupter into the local Apple Store because I was having problems with Boot Camp. The genius at the store had to delete everything from my hard drive and reinstall it from my external hard drive. As part of the process she created a "Apple" user account. I now want to restore some files (unrelated to this Boot Camp story) from my time machine archive. However, all the files prior to this Apple Store encounter are red -- and it says I do not have permission to view them. When I click "get info" it says that the "Apple" account has the read/write access to them and the option to unlock them is greyed out. How can I get these files from the archive and get them onto my main user account where they belong? The "Apple" account does not have a password so I think I can easily log on as that account, but I don't know where to go from there.
PS The files in question are iTunes libraries.
Thanks for your help.

Ok, I fixed it. Here's what I did.
I logged into my computer under the Apple account. Then I went into Time Machine. I found my old files under Users-->"my main account". I was able to restore those files to Users-->Shared. Then I was able to log back into "my main account" and retrieve the files from the shared folder. It worked! Hope this helps someone else some time!

So index_owner is 'USER1' in one case, and 'USER2' in the other; right?
A string that starts with 'USER1' will be distinct from a string that starts with 'USER2', no matter what the rest of the string contains. Maybe you don't want to compare the owners, or maybe you meant to use some other column (such as table_name) instead of index_owner).
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE, CREATE INDEX and CONNECT statements), and also post the results you want from that data.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g., 11.2.0.2.0).

Table Maintenance Generator - Lock of entries from different user

Hi there,
It looks like that there are a lot of threads about table maintenance generators, but none related with this one. The case is when I created a customer table Ztable and using table maintenace generator to get the Tcode Ztcode. My questions is how can 2 different user at the same time running this Ztocde without locking with each other?
Thanks in advance!
Weidong

Hi there,
From what I know it can be done through customer ABAP program transaction code but not from Table maintenance generator generated Tcode.
Any suggestion?

BSP data from different user mixed up

Hello,
Our stateful BSP application is called from the portal. How can it be possible that two different users at two different locations with different session id's can see information from the other person?
Best regards
Sander

Hi Sander,
this can happen if you enable server cache. One user calls the page with his relevant information, then the page is cached and each other user who calls the same page gets the cached one instead of his own page.
Please have a look at the "Properties" tab of your page and check that the Cache is set to 0 sec.

Restore comes from different backups

While performing a restore of an 8.1.7 database (actually it was a duplicate) from a hot backup, I noticed that the restore used backup sets from different backup days. It used the hot backup from 3/27 for datafiles 4,8, and 9. It used the hot backup from 3/28 (the date I want to restore from) for all other datafiles. I don't understand why RMAN would not use all backup sets from 3/28. These datafiles are not offline or read only.
Thanks for your input!

No, every time you restore from backup your data and settings are replaced with the data and settings from the backup you restore from. About the only thing you could do is restore from one of the backups and then use 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor to extract the additional data you want from the second one and sync this back to your phone.

Restore library from network user's home on Time Machine backup

Anyone know how to restore ONLY an individual user home Library or items inside a specific user's Library from a Time Machine backup?
Our 10.10.1 Server 4.0.3 server has its data including Network Userhomes backed up to Time Machine. Due to the keychain and preference issues that still plague us, we periodically need to restore a single user's Library or parts of the Library such as Preference folder. With Apple hiding the Library in general, you cannot see the Library for the users in the back up. As a result we are forced to restore the entire User home for the user in question to fix a single or several files that have become corrupted. With email etc. some user homes are pretty large and that process, as a result, can take quite some time when compared to replacing a single corrupt file with the one that worked yesterday.
Thanks

Thanks Linc. I was trying to navigate to it in Time Machine which has it hidden as usual.
Using Finder > Go > Go to folder > /Volumes/Drive/Userhomeslocation/User/Library I was able to get the folder and then went to Time Machine as Linc suggested.
Linc do you know of a way to show all Network User Libraries on the server without showing all invisible files?

TS3276 There are two User accounts on my iMac. The two Users have seperate email accounts. Both email Mailboxes show up in each Account. If I Delete Mailbox from in User account, does it delete the Mailbox from the other User account at the same time?

There are 2 Users on my iMac. Each User has their own email account. Both account Mailboxes show up in each User's account. If I delete a Mailbox in one account, does it delete the same Mailbox in the other Account?

If you click the - sign in Mail preferences, it will delete that mail account. If you just delete the Mailbox, that will just delete the Mailbox.
Each user can put their own email account information in Mail when logged into their User Account.
If you don't want the other user's mail account to show up in your mail application, then make sure the other user's messages are available to them when they are logged into their account and delete the other user account from Mail in your User Account. The other user can do the same when logged into their user account. Any messages stored in one locally will have to be transfered to the other's user account if it's not saved in their user login.
In addition, instead of deleting the account at first, highlight the account and open the Advanced Tab and disable the account. That email account will dissappear from Mail. Once you decide that you don't want the account, you can delete it. If you need to get back to it to transfer messages, just re enable it.

Trying to restore backup from another user ID to new phone and id?

My back up did not totally transfer pictures, contacts from one user id to another.

Not sure what you are asking. Are you saying you were able to restore to the iCloud backup but not all the data was restored?

Move mailbox from one user to another?

Greets -
Running Mail on OS X Server 10.5.8, and I'm trying to move a folder from one user to another. I thought this would do it:
cp -pPR /var/spool/imap/user/user1/folder /var/spool/imap/user/user2
It does copy, of course, and appears to have the same ownership and permissions as the other folders, but it doesn't show up. Is there some other kind of blessing required, or probably a better way to copy it than that cp command? Forgive me essentially weak unix skills....
Many thanks,
z

you need to set the cyrus acl, using cyradm or easier is with SirAdmin
-or take the simple route-
setup your mail program with both imap accounts and drag the folder from one account to the other.

Copy user attribute from different user to user currently being edited

Dear all,
I'm somehow stuck with a requirement I've to implement.
I've to copy some user attributes from one user to another. I learned that I should be able to use "getResourceObject" for
this and I tried to implement this in my user form:
<Field name='otherUser_actvtGrps'>
<Display class='Text'>
<Property name='title' value='otherUser_actvtGrps'/>
</Display>
<Default>
<set name='otheruser'>
<invoke name='getResourceObject' class='com.waveset.ui.FormUtil'>
<select>
<ref>context</ref>
<ref>:display.session</ref>
</select>
<s>SAP_System_A</s> 
<s>User</s>
<s>TemplateUser</s> 
<null/>
</invoke>
<ref>otheruser.user.attributes.activityGroups</ref> 
</set>
</Default>
</Field>
But this does not return anything..
Any ideas what I did wrong ?
Many many thanks for any help/ideas !
Best regards
Joerg

Do you know where to get some docs about the topics you mentioned ?
1. Your adapter might not to support Resource Objects of type User.ResourceReference manual, the "Resource Object Management" section in each adapter chapter. Also the resource description in XML has the ObjectTypes section, for example, for Active Directory adapters:
<ObjectTypes>
    <ObjectType name="Group" nameKey="UI_RESOURCE_OBJECT_TYPE_GROUP" icon="group">
      <ObjectClasses operator="AND">
        <ObjectClass name="Group"/>
      </ObjectClasses>
      <ObjectFeatures>
        <ObjectFeature name="create"/>
        <ObjectFeature name="update"/>
        <ObjectFeature name="delete"/>
      </ObjectFeatures>
      <ObjectAttributes idAttr="distinguishedName" displayNameAttr="samAccountName" descriptionAttr="description" objectClassAttr="objectclass">
        <ObjectAttribute name="cn" type="string"/>
        <ObjectAttribute name="sAMAccountName" type="string"/>
2. You can fetch the complete user view with all resource account information.You will find many examples in IdM XPRESS samples.
Get user view using LighthouseContext and user accountId
<invoke name='getView'>
<invoke name='getLighthouseContext'>
    <ref>WF_CONTEXT</ref>
</invoke>
<concat>
    <s>UserViewer:</s>
    <ref>accountId</ref>
</concat>
<Map>
</Map>
</invoke>Or with WorkflowServices (see BusinessAdministration manual):
<Action id='0' application='com.waveset.session.WorkflowServices'>
<Argument name='op' value='getView'/>
<Argument name='viewId'>
    <concat>
      <s>User:</s>
      <ref>accountId</ref>
    </concat>
</Argument>
<Return from='view' to='user'/>
</Action>
3. You can fetch resource account info directly using ResourceAdapter API (not too well documented way).Example in Java:
    LighthouseContext ctx = <get context here>;
    // Get resource object
    Resource res = (Resource) ctx.getObject(Type.RESOURCE, <resource name>);
    // Pack resource and user accountId into a ResourceInfo object
    WSUser user = new WSUser();
    ResourceInfo info = new ResourceInfo();
    info.setAccountId(accountId);
    info.setResource(res);
    info.setAttributes(null);
    user.setResourceInfo(new ResourceInfo[] {info});
    // Rertrieve ResourceAdapter object
    ResourceAdapter ra = ResourceOp.findAdapter(res, res.getCache());
    // Get account info into the 'user' object
    WSUser result = ra.getUser(user);
    // Now you can get account status from ResourceInfo ...
    info = result.getResourceInfo(res);
    // ... and account attributes from WSAttributes
    WSAttributes attributes = result.getWSAttributes();
    ...
