Same login, two different locations

Hi everybody, just a simple question here: I have a single .Mac account, a Powermac with ISight at home and a Macbook in my office; is it possible to chat from office with kids at home with iChat, by logging in both computers with the same account at home and at office? I tryied but unsuccessful. How can I do (settings, preferences, and so on) if it is possible? Otherwise which software do you suggest? Thanks Giovanni

Giovanni
The easiest thing is to get them a separate screen-name. Either an AIM one, which is free, or a .mac one, which is also free, because .mac screen names still work after the free trial period.

  • Mac mini server on two different location

    Hi,
    With my partner we are working on very havy image file from two different location. we wont to be able to share those file to each other easly and quickly mad make sur those file are allways up to date.
    - My first idea was to install in my place one mac mini server with external hard drive (RAID 0) and install the same server in my partner place. then I would like to create a VPN connexion between both Mac Mini server and setup a kind of RAID 1 between then. link that if my partner modify an image file on the server, With a short delay I will be able to see it on my side. this solution would be the best for me as all the data would be save in two different location and I would not have any backup issue.
    I did not buy the MAC mini server yet but as soon that I know the best soluiton and that it is possilbe to do so I will buy it.
    - My second idea (if the first one is not possible or if you guy's convins me that my idea is stupide) would be to have one MAC Mini server in one location setup with an external hard drive in RAID 01. my partner will need to connect to this server through VPN. This solution seems to be a good option but my partner will need to copy the file in local to work on it (few Gb eatch file) and copy it back on the server when he finish to work on it.
    With this solution I will also need to organise manual backup through another hard drive to avoid to have all our data in the same location.
    Witch one of those solution seems the best and can work with MAC mini server? If you have another idea for my situation I m more then happy to read it.
    Knowing that other user may need to access to my file, is the MAC Mini server VPN connection safe and fast?
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Chris.

    The fact that you are both working on multi-gigabyte
    files, the statement BDAqua made about network speed
    is a big issue.  Small incremental changes in a single
    multi-gigabyte file still require that entire file to be transferred.
    There in lies the big issue with network speeds.
    Basically, it seems idea 1 will probably not work well and
    besides, RAID is for local drives and not for over networks.
    One solution to the synchronization issue is have a single
    computer that has the application and the data and log into
    it and work remotely.  However, it sounds like these are image
    files and working and any kind of graphics over a remote
    connection is problematic unless there is a very high speed
    network connection.
    Second idea is the simple solution.  As for the backup, that
    can be automated with backup software and the backup could be
    put any where.

  • SQL Server two database at two different locations

    Hi Guys,
    We are having same database at two different locations (Database A with Sqlserver 2008/Express, database B with Sqlserver 2012).
    Our requirement is when ever a row is inserted in a table of Database A from location 1. Same value should also be added in Server 2 at different location.
    So that at any point of time both the database base values should be same.
    Which is the best method to do it ?
    Regards,
    Raghu.G

    Could you please give more information about the editions of SQL Server? Is SQL 2012 express as well?
    Do you also need udpates/deletes to be moved to another server? Also do you want changes in SQL 2012 to be moved to 2008 as well?
    With Express edition you have very limited options.

  • Songs saved in two different locations, why?

    I was looking around my hd today and found that I have two copies of many of my mp3 files, some of which i deleted months ago. The first set of songs are in the "Music" folder and are only sorted by file name. The second set is located in music>itunes>itunes music and is sorted by artist then album, the same as in iTunes.
    I have two questions. Firstly, is it safe to delete the copies in the Music folder and just use the ones in the iTunes folder? And second is there any way I can stop this from happening in the future?
    Thanks

    May I ask a related question, since what I'm trying to do is to avoid having songs in two different locations? (If not, just tell me the rules; I'm relatively new to Discussions, as well as being a new Mac OS X user!)
    I've set up separate user accounts for my children on our iMac. They want to put music on the computer, but their interests overlap somewhat. In order to avoid having the same songs copied into the iTunes Music folder of more than one user, and to allow all users to access all music files, I followed a suggestion from David Pogue's book on OS X, namely to put all the music in an iTunes Music folder in the ~/Users/Shared folder, and then make that the default folder for each user by changing the iTunes preferences.
    The problem with this was that then my son was unable to copy (import?) the music from a CD by dragging it to his iTunes Library icon--error message said he didn't have access to the folder--whereas he had been able to do so when ~/Users/HisUsername/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music was his default folder. I tried to solve this problem by changing the permissions on ~/Users/Shared/iTunes Music to be read & write, but then everyone but me started having problems running iTunes (it would give an error message saying "iTunes is on a locked disk, or you don't have access . . .").
    Lots of people seem to have the same problem (i.e., error message in running iTunes), but leaving that aside my basic question is what's the most efficient way to store and access music files so that (a) everyone can access it, (b) the number of duplicates is minimized, and (c) individual users can add music to the computer? Any suggestions will be very welcome!

  • Setting backup on two different locations

    Hello, people. I am a newbie DBA and at my work place , Using RMAN for my backup strategy I want to set up a backup to two different location ( e.g A:\backup and B:\backup), I have configure two channels, and also set configure device type disk parallelism 2, but I seem not to be getting the result i need.
    What does configure device type disk parallelism actually do?
    For me to proceed, what do i need to do? thank you.

    RMAN configuration parameters are:
    CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 3 DAYS;
    CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
    CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
    CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
    CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1;
    CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 2;
    CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
    CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT 'D:\oracle\backup\data_%U', '\\atapp\data\olu\backup\data_%U';
    CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
    CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'D:\ORACLE\ORACLE9I\DATABASE\SNCFTESTER.ORA'; # default
    this is my configuration and it works fine, A copy of the backup are on both servers, the same size the and there is only copy of the archive log and controlfile on one of the servers which is fine

  • Setting backup on two different location

    What does configure device type disk parallelism actually do?

    Question is, do you want A:\ & B:\ backup locations to by synchronized? If so, you'll need to use the COPIES parameter (could also copy the backupset once the backup is complete). Setting the PARALLELISM alone will not synchronize the two backup locations.
    In your case, it would appear that you manually allocated multiple channels with a format specified, therefore RMAN produced the three pieces in A:\ and the one piece in B:\ .
    What you'll experience with multiple copies AND multiple channels (parrlelism 2 for example) is that one channel will grab a group of files and begins backing up to the multiple locations while channel two grabs another group of files and begins backing up to the multiple locations at the same time.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can we send the same message two different recievers with sequence

    Hi,
    i am sending the same message to two different receviers without using BPM.
    now i require to send with sequence.is it possible without BPM?

    Hey
    There are two options for this
    First one is to use Wait step in BPM as other experts suggested.
    Second one is a dirty way around,what you can do is send the second message to a dummy receiver first(may be a file on your XI server),then design one bypass scenario which will pick up the file after a specified time interval(give the poling interval you want).
    i would go for BPM coz its pretty straight forward,but in case you want to avoid BPM then u can use the second approach
    for bypass scenario,have a look at the following
    How to send any data (even binary) through XI, without using the Integration Repository

  • Batch processing: save processed file with same name to different location without moving the original

    Hi, I would like to denoise Voice Over files with help of Auditions Batch Process. However, I have to save the files with the same name as the original, so that I can simply relink them in Premiere. Since I do want to keep the originals, I would like to save the processed files to a different location.
    Unfortunately, Batch Processor adds " Copy" to the processed files and moves the originals along with the processed files to the new folder (causing Premiere to loose the original files).
    Can I achieve my goal with Batch Processor, and how would I have to configure it?
    Kind regards,
    Andreas

    Which version of Audition are you using? The latest ones allow you to specify where the batched files are saved and also if any Prefix or Postfix are added to the file name. These are all under Export Settings in the Batch Process pane. However you must have the Export box ticked to give you access to the settings.
