Share Ical event on same Mac but different user

Is it possible to share Ical Event on the same computer without using .me ??
thanks

Hmmm... that may accomplish similar/the same results compared to doing it from the terminal. I wonder if iCal is disliking something else.
Perhaps try:
- Get rid of the alias and get iCal working 'normally' from the user2 profile
- Create a calendar in the user2 iCal that matches one you want to share from your profile (for example, 'Home')
- Figure out what folder name matches the 'Home' calendar on your profile (will be a folder like 'A23H-1B-A124-NA223' or something... Create an alias of that folder and get it into the Calendars folder of user2.
- Move the Calendar folder for the one you created in step 2 to the Desktop. Copy the name and paste it into the name for the alias.
Now you should have a calendar folder with the same name as one created natively in user2's iCal, but it's pointing at the other folder. You will still have to make sure the folder, alias, AND all the .ics files in the folder have read/write permissions for both users.
Moving foward, this could be an issue - new iCal events created by you may not carry the read/write settings of the other events, but we can cross that bridge if we get there. If you open up user2 after the above and see your events, that alone will be a sweet step forward!

  • Share iCal on same mac but different accounts

    What is the easiest way to "share" iCal with two users on the same computer. My wife has an account as do I and I attempted to export but only exported one file and not the whole calender from my wife's to mine. Do not want to publish to internet. Is there something I am missing?
    Thanks

    KitChaos,
    You could try BusySync: Multi-user editing — BusySync allows multiple users to share and edit calendars with full read-write access. Changes made by one user are instantly synchronized with all others on the network. http://www.busymac.com/

  • Share music on same mac with different user accounts

    I'll try to make this clear, i have an imac with a large itunes collection. my two kids have accounts on that same mac, and want to be able to listen to what i have in my itunes. i can't see putting three copies of the same music on the same computer. is there a way to let them play what i have in my itunes account while they are logged in to their own account on the same computer?
    imac (5 years old)   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   macbook, G4 I book, I book, Imac
    macbook w/ superdrive, G4 with combo drive, I-book w/o cd burner   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   macbook, G4 I book, I book, Imac

    Jase, you said "Music sharing works across different user accounts, whether they are on the same computer or different computers", but my son will log into his account where he currently has no music. in the window on the left, we can see the other computers in the house that are on line, but there is no sign of the master account (on that same imac). i assume this is because the master account is not logged in, therefore the secondary accounts can't find the master account's music, nor can I from a remote computer ( my macbook, for example). for instance, right now from my macbook i can see my son's itunes list (on the imac) in my "share window" (even though his list is empty). he can also see my macbooks list in his "share window". he cannot see either my list on that imac, or his sisters list on that same imac. all acounts on the imac have sharing turned on, as well as "look for shared music" turned on.
    i guess the focus is on this: can the master user itunes list be made available to other users on that same computer while they are logged in as other users (and the master account is logged off, which it has to be in order for the secondary accounts to be logged in, right?) I can't think of any other way to ask this, so i hope that clarified what we have tried and what we are asking for.

  • How do I share music from different itunes accounts in the same Mac, in different users account on that Mac with different iPhones?

    Hi
    My wife and I share the same Mac.
    She has her session and I have mine thus each of us has our iTunes session with our own music and settings.
    She has her iTunes account and I have mine too.
    And..;)...she has her Iphone and of course I also have mine.
    So, the big question:
    Both like music that the other has bought but we do not want to buy it twice! (through her account and mine).
    Is there a way to share music I purchase so she can have it in her iTunes session and therefore have it also on her iPhone when she syncs..and of course viceversa for me too?
    It goes without saying that although we like music the other one has, we do not like all of the music, so basically we want to have the possibility to share those special songs we like so we can have them both in our phones and individual Itunes sessions.
    Was that clear or I lost you???
    Any answer will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    First of all if you havent done it yet i think u shold authorize the mac on both accounts on itunes. You also can switch the accounts on your Iphones at itunes while you are in the internet adn download the music.
    This is just an idea you should think of. For sure there are other ways I dont know.

  • Share Photos on the same iMac with different user accounts... How do You???

    Hello,
    I was wondering if there is a way to share photos with another user (same computer, different log-in names) on the same iMac?
    There are two users on my iMac and I want to be able to share photos and other documents, music etc. with them, but can't seem to do it.
    Please help.
    Thank you.

    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 use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts 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. The problem here is that OS X works very hard to keep your data safe and secure from the other users. You're trying to beat what's built in to the system. So, to beat the system
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts
    Move the iPhoto Library Folder to an external HD set to ignore permissions. You could also use a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.
    In each account 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.
    Lastly: This method seems a little clunky at first, but works very well. Most importantly, it uses the System to do the job for you.
    Create a new Account on your Mac, call it Media. Create an iPhoto Library there. (BTW: This will work for iTunes too.)
    Enable Sharing on the Library:(Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other accounts. In those accounts, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. The Library will appear in the other source pane.
    This means that both users will be able to see the pics. If you want to use a pic then simply drag it from the shared Library to your own in the iPhoto Window. This means that each user can have their own edits.
    If you want to add photos to the Library: Log into the Media account for that purpose.
    To make it all seamless: Set your Mac to log into the Media Account automatically. Set iPhoto to launch on log-in. Then switch to your own account using Fast User Switching.
    Net result: a Library that's permanently available to all users but also protected. Each user can have their own versions of the pics if they want.
    No partitioning, no permissions issues. Uses no extra disk space. What's not to like?

  • OBIEE report based on same criteria but different view based on filter

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a report in OBIEE 11.1.1.5 where In the same report using the same criteria, I can have different views which applies different filter.
    Suppose, I have a report criteria as
    Dim1, Dim2, Measure1, Measure 2.
    I want to create two pivot view based on the same data.
    One view will be showing data Dim1="Value1". The other view is duplicate of this view but will show data Dim1="Value2".
    Is it possible in OBIEE?
    basically what I want is work on the same dataset but different representation and show them in the same report. Please share your opinion.
    Regards,
    Tanveer.

    Hi,
    You create a new dim dummy column in criteria and in presentation level create new pivot table view use this dummy dimension column and filter with dim1=value2.
    give updates on this.
    Mark if Helpful/correct.

  • 2 iphones 1 computer. updated my wifes phone to ios 5 her phone got wiped of all apps and all my contacts are on her phone. we had been using the same apple id but different user accounts on our laptop. How do i get her phone back to normal?

    2 iphone 4, 1 computer. i upgraded to ios 5 and just updated my wifes phone as well. her phone got wiped of all apps and all my contacts were put on her phone. we had been using the same apple id but different user acct on our laptop. How do i get her phone back to normal??

    Have your wife log in to her user account on the laptop. Launch iTunes, then connect her phone to the computer with the USB cable. Sync. That should put back all apps and media. Since you already upgraded her to iOS 5 she'll have to manually enter all her settings and preferences, and organize her home screens.

  • Importing files with same name but different extensions

    Hope I will be clear enough.
    Lets say that instead of sending a file from Lightroom to an external editor, I open it directly in Photoshop.
    When I'm done, I save the edited photo using the same name but in a different file format : IMG_1333.cr2 > IMG_1333.psd or IMG_1333.tif, and selecting the same folder location.
    Then, I come back into Lightroom and synchronise the folder.
    Why is the knew version of the picture not showing up beside the original file, despite the different extension ?
    I notice that the different extensions ( .psd or .tif ) are recorded in the sidecar files field in the Metadata panel.
    Of course, everything works fine if the file name is modified ( or just by selecting the "copy" option in Photoshop's "save as" dialog box ). Lightroom synchronise dialog shows the new photo to import.
    So, why is Lightroom not making a difference between files with the same name but different format extensions ?
    Thanks for any hint :-)
    Gilles.

    Gilles-
    I think your problem is likely that you have the option to stack the copy with the original turned on. First, right-click on one of these photos and go to the stacking menu. If Unstack is not grayed out then you have a stack -- select Unstack to reveal all copies.
    To change the automatic stacking of edited copies from Photoshop, when you next choose to edit a file, in the bottom left corner of the dialog is the check box for unstacking. Clear it, and that choice should "stick" until you change it again.
    Hope this helps!
