Shared iTunes library, store purchases by more than one user

I'm after some advice about a shared iTunes library. The folder is on an external hard drive. There are two user accounts on the Mac and they both make iTunes store purchases. I have had permissions errors for user #2 when trying to add downloaded songs to the library. I noticed the 'Ignore permissions' option was unchecked, but enabling it does not fix the problem (probably should've done it first).
So user#2 has some downloaded songs in a different directory. I'm at the point where I need to bring everything into one shared library folder, on a permissions-ignored drive, making sure both users can download their individual purchases to the same library. Both users also have an iPhone that they would like to add music from this library to. Am I running into any potential problems - even if I backup the music data and begin from scratch?

Use separate Windows user accounts, or press the Shift key when launching iTunes and create a second library.

    No, but as mentioned in my answer to your other post, you can share the same iTunes ID with your family and maintain separate iCloud accounts with separate IDs.

  • Can I use my iTunes Store account with more than one PC ?

    Hi all,
    Am I able to use my iTunes Store account with more than one PC ?
    I use my account on my PC - but I would like to download the latest version of iTunes onto my Mum's laptop, log in to my own iTunes Store account and rent a movie for her to download onto the laptop.
    Is this possible and would I still be able to use my account on my PC at the same time?
    Many thanks,
    Steve.

    Good question.
    I don't think you can--if I'm incorrect, someone will tell me--but it seems to me to be easier to simply open an iTunes account for your mom. Then get her a gift card, load it into iTunes for her, and rent a movie that way. Not elegant at all...but workable.

  • How to resrict purchaser accept more than one RFx response ?

    hi all
      we use SRM 7.0 with standalone scenario.
      when the purchaser carry out Response comparison , system permit purchaser accept more than one bidder for one RFx item . the result is we want material A 10 piece, but supplier X and supplier Y get PO for 10 piece material A each.
       we want to restrct this operation, please give me some advices, thanks.
      regards
        claud

    You might want to try restricting at the PO creation time. Implement BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI for PO (BBP_PO_CHANGE method). In the logic, check the related proceeding RFx's item total quantity against its existing follow-on POs' item quantity. If adding the quantity of the current  PO exceeds the total RFx item quantity, throw an error to prevent the current PO from being created.

  • More than one user on icloud

    Can you have more than one user on Icloud?  If so do you have to add their name somewhere?

    You can share an Apple ID for app purchases, etc. without sharing iCloud accounts. In fact, it's smart NOT to share iCloud accounts. That prevents things like contacts and calendars from getting mixed up, and gives each user 5GB of iCloud storage to themselves. If you share an iCloud account, you get 1 block of 5GB that would have to be shared by everyone.

  • How we can lock No more than one user can use the table  at a single time

    Hi Abapers,
    0)  which  function modules to lock & unlock a table.
    1) When you execute the program, we can check if there is any lock on this table. If yes, the user should be able to only view the table contents and not modify.
    2) If there is no lock, then lock the table and go into change mode.
    3) On exiting from the program, unlock the table using the function module.
    4) more than one user can't modify the table just display.
    Note: If there is any lock, display message saying table is locked.
    Plz help me for this requirement.
    Thanks
    Nani

    Hello Nani
    Have a look at the lock object EMMARAE (<i>Lock MARA and MARM/MAKT exclusively</i>) in transaction SE11.
    Inspect the F1 help for field <b>Lock mode</b>:
    DE ENQMODE
    Short Text
         Lock mode
    Definition
         Defines how to synchronize table record access by several users.
    The following modes exist:
         Exclusive lock
             The locked data can be read or processed by one user only. A request
             for another exclusive lock or for a shared lock is rejected.
         Shared lock
             Several users can read the same data at the same time, but as soon
             as a user edits the data, a second user can no longer access this
             data. Requests for further shared locks are accepted, even if they
             are issued by different users, but exclusive locks are rejected.
         Exclusive but not cumulative lock
             Exclusive locks can be requested by the same transaction more than
             once and handled successively, but an exclusive but not cumulative
             lock can only be requested once by a given transaction. All other
             lock requests are rejected.
    If you want to lock a standard table search whether the table is used in lock objects (<i>Where-Used-List</i>). If it is a customer table you have to create your own lock object (including two function modules: one for enqueuing and the other for dequeuing).
    The lock modules can be found in menu <b>GoTo -> Lock Modules</b>.
    Given these lock modules the logic should be quite clear after starting the program:
    1. Request lock -> if successful, continue in Change mode; -> if failed, continue in Display mode
    2. Before leaving the report remove lock (note: no problem if no lock has been set in the beginning).

    You can seach the net for solutions like this one http://appletvvpn.com/how-to-connect-apple-tv-2-to-vpn/ another idea is to use a PC as the control and fit that with a wireless card and set up a ad hoc wireless network that the Apple TV uses. 

  • Using Remote Desktop Admin app in more than one user account.

    Is possible to have the ARD admin app use the same database and settings over more than one user account?
    eg. I have ARD setup on my Mac as I am in charge of our organisations Macs. However if I am away for a few weeks, one of our other techs would be able to turn on my Mac, log in to a generic account, open ARD and it would be set up exactly as I have it in my user account.
    I know that I could manually set up ARD in the other account, but with the number of machines we have I would rather not have to re-enter all those admin passwords all over again, and then have to remember to update ARD in the other account everytime we get a new machine or make other changes.

    In theory, you could simply copy the com.apple.RemoteDesktop.plist into the preferences folder of the other user. Then they would simply have to know the Remote Desktop Password (which is probably stored in your KeyChain.)
    I've never tried this, but it seems like it would work.

  • Adobe Form used by more than one user simultaneously

    Friends,
    I am working on an online interactive Adobe form using Web Dynpro ABAP.
    once the user enters the data and clicks the submit button, the data is sent to ztables.
    the scenario is that more than one user can possibly use the same form simultaneously. in that case, how can i maintain synchronization ie how to avoid multiple users from using the form at the same time, when the form is already being filled by one user already.
    I am guessing i have to do something with ADS for this.
    Any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards.

    Hi Bertrand,
    The purpose of allowing only one user is to ensure data consistency as you have guessed.
    Is there a program name or transaction code where i can look up the lock entries and see if i can apply them to my web dynpro application or the adobe form.
    I would greatly appreciate your help.
    Thanks and Regards.

  • Can we set "IN PROCESS" Status to more than one User

    Hi,
    As per my client current scenario every work item will be sent to 3 useru2019s (One is the supervisor of the other two users). If any one of the user executes the work item it will automatically call a Ztransaction and displays the screen. When any one of the user executes the workitem, then the workitems will dissappears from rest of the users inboxes; Setting "IN PROCESS" status for the person who executed the workitem. The workitem will be in "IN PROCESS" Status untill the User Press "SAVE" button in the transaction.
    If the person whose executed the workitem (IN PROCESS) status, has gone on unplanned leave; then the supervisor wants to forward the workitem of the current user to other user. How can he forward?
    Is there any option to set "In Process" status to more than one User? [Supervisor and Person who executed the workitem]
    Please provide me any advice to the above requirement.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ajay Kumar

    Can you ask your workflow administrator to forward the workitem to the user you want to be sent it to.
    I tried a small case wherein I had forwarded a workitem to myself and another user.
    As I executed it , it went into status IN process and at the same time it got removed from other users inbox .
    Now I went to T Code SWI1 and forwarded iut to another user say USABC.
    As a result the workitem again went into status "Ready" and into the inbox of the user ABC.
    So , you can try this in your case with the help of your workflow administrator.
    Another way is to create the other user as a substitue of the user who is currently executing the workitem.
