Several user accounts with admin privileges.

When I try to open a different adim account in the user folder, it says I don't have permission. How can I open the other user account?

You can't, in the Finder. The only thing special about an Admin account is you can temporarily elevate your privileges to perform certain tasks. That does not include viewing other user's home.
You can access it from the Terminal.

Several user account with ID=0

Hello I find I have a problem:
My OS X has several user accounts with the same ID, particularly with ID=0. This ID should belong to root user account only.
Terminal: dscl . -list /Users UniqueID
daemon                  1
diegopaniz              0
Guest                   201
KEKA                    501
nobody                  -2
root                    0
Someone know how to fix it?
TKS!!!

If you're using "diegopaniz," change the UID to something in the 500 range. Otherwise delete it. You seem to already know how to use dscl.

Business Area not visible to account with admin privileges

Hello,
I've encountered the following scenario on visiting a client site:
A Business area has been created by the EUL owner account (IFL) and he has granted admin privileges to another account (BRIANB who has been granted the DBA role). However, when BRIANB logs onto DIscoverer Admin, the Business area in question is not visible. BRIANB is able to create a new business area in the EUL which includes folders that are part of the 'invisible' BA. BRIANB is not able to access the 'invisible' BA using Discoverer End User. I'd be very grateful if anyone out there has an explantion for this,
regards,
KEvin.

Problem solved. My client inadvertently created an additional EUL when initially logging onto Disco Admin as BRIANB. Thereafter this was the default EUL. The errant EUL has now been deleted the required BA's are now in view,
Kevin.

Using Aperture 3 with several user accounts

Is there a way to share Aperture's library among several users accounts ? Just like you do with iPhoto's library when you put it in the shared users folder ?

How is your workflow set up? How are you moving the Aperture Library around? What OS X and what Aperture versions?
After backup to an independent drive (stuff happens...) make sure all apps and the OS are current. Also read this regarding

How do I use one iTunes library for several user accounts?

This is definitely a question!
I have several user accounts for my osx. One I use at home, one at work etc.
What I never have been able ta manage is a way to use the same iTunes library (the same music files) for the different accounts.
When a new user profile is created, everything in it is set to scratch.
I have tried all kinds of tricks:
- Direct iTunes to look for It's library on the other users folder (wich doesn't really work, cus even if you are Admin you don't have access to other users folders through another user).
- Creat an alias for the other library-folder and refere to it.
etc. etc. You name it...
Anyone?

Sharing programs among several user accounts

Hi,
I've just bought my first mac mini and I've setup several user accounts for my family members. For myself I created an admin account
Among others I've bought Microsoft Office, these programs are visible on my account, but not on the other accounts.
How can I make these programs available on all accounts?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Twan

Log into the account which has access to them, control-click their Dock icons, move them to the Applications folder at the top level of the drive if needed, and open them in the other accounts.

New iMac 21.5". How can I set up a new user account with access to all the files of the original user account?

Running Mavericks on a 2013 iMac 21.5". I want to set up a second user account with different settings that meet the requirements of specific software. I need the files to be accessible by both users. I have made both the main and secondary accounts administrators. I have also enabled file sharing for both. Neither account can see the other's files in Finder.
How can I make all files accessible to both accounts? I read that administrator accounts automatically can see all files on the computer, but it is not working out that way. I have restarted the computer, to no avail.

Is it possible to link several vendor accounts with a customer account?

Hello,
We have linked a vendors with his corresponding customer, so in FBL5N report, when inside this customer, we can see all of the receivable items of him as a vendor.
The question is: We have a customer account number that corresponds to several vendor accounts numbers. Is it possible to link these several vendor accounts with the customer account ?
We only want to see in FBL5N report both customer and vendors items.
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,

Hi
It is not possible since Vendor and customer should be 1:1 and not 1:N
If you require clearing between the customer and vendor, the following requirements must be met:
The customer number must have been entered in the corresponding vendor master record.
The vendor number must have been entered in the corresponding customer master record.
The fields "Clrg with vend." or "Clrg with cust." must have been selected in both master records.

Firefox won't open links from Outlook when FF is started with admin privileges

OS: Windows 7 64 bit
I usually start Firefox from a toolbar (PowerPro) which runs with admin privileges. Thus Firefox starts with admin privileges too. Under this condition links in Outlook won't open in Firefox.
But if I start Firefox with normal privileges the links in Outlook works as expected.

Under Tools > Options > Advanced look to see if the "check if Firefox is default browser on startup" Check this and then restart FF. If it isn't the default it should ask if you want to make it the default. Choose yes and it should open when clicking links again.

Is ti possible? and How?
Thanks for your help.
Federico.

is GREEK just not a supported language
You can see exactly what languages are supported in the OS X tech specs:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/techspecs/
In addition, the Tiger that comes with Intel Macs has Russian.
A Greek add-on is only available via Rainbow and 3rd party patches. One is mentioned here, I don't know if it works right or causes problems.

And the question is the following: is supported to create user accounts with OIDDAS and expect that users can work with OAS4OS and be
able to authenticate in the operating system?

Hi Jacco,
I didn't see your post before.
Nop, unfortulately I don't have a document with that. I just received that answer
from development (related to the plugin for AD that is not certified, and DAS is
not intended to work with OAS4OS).
Anyway, about the plugin to work with AD, this is working for me; at least I tested
it by configuring the plugin, I configured synchronization, the mapping file, I did
the bootstrap, and the accounts that were bootstraped now shows the OS attributes
on DAS.

Luis Vivero.

Can't delete user account with open shopping cart

Hi all,
Is it okay to delete user account with open shopping cart? I can't delete user by users_gen, it says existing partner document. I then applied notes 1148837,report PARTNER_SET_DELETE. And this report doesn't really work. I ran it and it found zero occurrnences. Is anybody using this report?
So is it the only way to delete user from SRM is by su01 and leave some informations on Busines partner (bp)
Thanks,
Kev

Hi. You can easily lock the user and change the validity dates using SU01.
Then, I would write a program that looks through all locked users and checks their valdity dates. Table USR02 holds all this data.
Then, if the user is locked and the validity end date was 3 or 6 or whatever months ago (make this a selection parameter probably), then you know you want to delete this user.
So, go into table HRP1001 where SCLAS = US and SOBID = user name and OTYPE = CP and get field OBJID. This is the central person (CP) number.
Then, go into table HRP1001 again, this time where SCLAS = BP and OTYPE = CP and OBJID = the CP number and get field SOBID. This is the business partner (BP) number.
Now, run function BAPI_USER_DELETE to delete the SU01 user fully, then function HR_CENTRALPERSON_DELETE to delete the central person, then function BUP_BUPA_DELETE to delete the business partner.
And that should delete everything.
Regards,
Dave.

I recommend that you
Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID on her iPod but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
and Settings>iCloud
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.
