Sharing calendars between accounts on the same computer.

Is there a way to share and automatically update a calender between user accounts on the same computer with out publishing it to the web?

A quick update: with the December 31, 2007 release of BusySync version 1.5, users can now additionally synchronize iCal calendars outside of their existing subnet using procedures which are outlined here.
In addition, Mark/Space has announced that a Mac OS X 10.5 and later update will he forthcoming for SyncTogether, which is not currently compatible with that OS release. A public beta of the updated application will be available here on or before January 31, 2008.

  • Transfering iTunes library between accounts in the same computer??

    Hi everyone
    I use my MacBook both at home and in my office. I work in a small company, so everyone is very relaxed about security. I only have one account, but recently, while at the office I discovered someone browsing at some of my kids' pictures.
    To avoid this,I decided to set up a "office" account. Everything went fine until I opened iTunes and found that I don't have any songs (they must have missed the memo about the new account!)
    Is there an easy way to transfer those songs to my new account? I stress, this is the same computer we're talking about!!!
    Thanks

    Do you mean they were viewing the pix on your computer? iTunes does not have pix for anyone to view. (This is the iTunes forum)
    To avoid this,I decided to set up a "office" account.
    You created a new account on the computer?
    If you are talking about the computer, open the first accounts - > System prefs - Sharing.
    Under Services, turn OFF everything.
    Under FireWall, turn it ON.

  • Sharing music between users on the same computer

    I'd like to make one iTunes library that serves multiple users on that computer (all the users are me anyway). Is that even possible?

    Yes. In your Main account, use the iTunes Preferences to enable Sharing. Leave iTunes running and use Fast User Switching to move to the next account. In that account, use iTunes Preferences to 'Look for Shared Libraries'. Wait a moment and the main library will appear in the new account's iTunes.
    Repeat as necessary.

  • How do you share one Itunes library between accounts in the same computer?

    I have a new I-mac and I set up my Itunes library on the main account in the I-tunes folder, as a default. I set up a second account for my wife - how can I share the music in the main library without having to transfer it to a separate folder under her username?

  • Home Sharing - Can you share between two accounts on the same computer?

    I haven't been able to find any info about this, but does home sharing allow you to share files between to different user accounts on the same computer? I have been struggling with trying to do this for years, and I'm really hoping this solves my problem.

    This is true in a sense; you have to use the same itunes account to activate home sharing. BUT, you don't need to use the same itunes account for general use.
    Example:
    My computer and iPhone has one itunes account.
    My wife's computer and iPhone have a totally separate account.
    I turned on Home Sharing on both machines using one account name and ID - mine.
    Now she can see and copy my music and apps, etc. I can see and copy her music, apps, etc.
    However, when she goes to the iTunes store, she still can buy and so forth *on her own account*. Same with her iPhone. And I can still do the same as well on my own account on my machine and phone.
    The only limitation seems to be updating apps: If you copy apps over to another machine using Home Sharing and install them on another phone running another account, it works great. But you can't seem to update those copied apps, unless you log in on the phone or the computer it syncs up to with the account it came from.
    Aside from that, the apps still work even when the computer it was copied to and the phone it was synced to are active on ANOTHER account.
    The key is the setup - for Home Sharing. That needs to be one account, but otherwise it's business as usual.

  • How do I share new purchased itunes content automatically between multiple user accounts on the same computer?

    I have 3 different user accounts set up on the same computer. Whenever one of us buys or downloads anything, how can I get that to be automatically available for each of the other users? The main itunes library is stored at users/shared/itunes, but this doesn't seem to help much. As far as I can gather, Home Sharing only works between computers, not between users on the same computer......

    is that the iTunes folder or just the iTunes media (or music) folder ?
    what should work is if the entire iTunes folder were in the shared folder and iTunes on each user account would access the same library file
    launch iTunes on each user account (one at a time) while holding the option (⌥) key, click on choose library when prompted, and select the iTunes folder you copied to the shared folder.
    if user A adds content, this will be available to the others immediately when they access the library, however, only one iTunes at a time can use the library. if you're using fast user switching, user A must quit iTunes before user B can fire it up.

  • Can you share music between iTunes accounts on the same computer

    Can you share music between iTunes accounts on the same computer? My kids iPods are under my account now with all of our shared music but they want their own iTunes accounts. I would like to transfer the music and apps that they purchased under my account to their new accounts... Is this posible?

    Did you enable the display of system files and hidden files and folders?
    by the way, how can i stop this from happening another time.
    Make a backup!
    i had music there for over 6 years.
    Well you must have updated iTunes once or twice in that time. Do you have some sort of "tidying" app that is supposed to clean "unnecessary" files. If so perhaps it is too aggressive.

  • Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

    Hello there - I am sharing an iPhoto library across two accounts on the same computer - it works fine EXCEPT for Quicktime movies - they play on one account and claim I don't have the rights on the other - all permissions are on and ok?

    It should be in the Users/ Shared folder.
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Note the option to check and repair Library Permissions

  • Synchronizing multiple user accounts on the same computer

    We bought a .mac family pack. Synchronizing 3 computers works great. But we cannot synchronize our 5 family member's multiple user accounts on the brand new iMac G5. Can it be true that synchronizing does not work between different user accounts on the same computer? To be able to do this was the prime motivator to buy a .mac family pack. Please someone tell us that we are doing something wrong!?
    Cheers, Leo

    Leo,
    I seem to be having better luck with what I think you are trying to do. Let me describe my situation.
    I have accounts for my wife and I and each of our children on each of our several Macs.
    For my wife's accounts (on each of the Macs) and my account (on each of the Macs) I enabled syncing via the preference pane. I did not sync the mail accounts (she has different e-mail accounts) but we did sync the addresses, bookmarks and such. We did not sync the calendars since we each "subscribe" to each others calendar.
    On each machine and across the machines our "sync'd" information appears properly synchronized.
    Now, here is one difference, I do NOT have a family pack. I only have my single .Mac account and I use that one account as the .Mac account for my wife and I. Now that I think about it, that would seem to be the big difference.
    Might I suggest that you go into your wife's account and change her .Mac information to be YOUR information and see if it synchorizes.
    Regards,
    Tom

  • How can I transfer a local mailbox to another user account on the same computer?

    I have two user accounts on the same computer. I actually never really wanted two accounts, but a second one was generated when I chose to use the Migration Assistant to transfer my account from a previous computer to my current one, and I never did anything to delete the second one. Anyway, I have been using Mac Mail to view my work email messages from a Microsoft Exchange server. Awhile back, I was running out of space on my mail server, and decided to download a bunch of my email messages to local mailboxes in order to free up space.
    Recently (for reasons that are not terribly relevant) I have decided to switch between the two user accounts on the computer. I have transfered all of my documents, apps, etc. to the new account. However, I haven't been able to find a way to transfer all the email that is in those local mailboxes, so that they are viewable/usable in the new account. Could somebody suggest the best way for me to do this? I am no longer going to use the old account, so the two do not have to be synced. I just want the mailboxes to be available for the new user account (with the same organizational structure).
    I am currently running Mavericks (just upgraded last week).
    Thanks,
    JEG

    A quick update....
    I copied the folder in ~Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes that contains all of my local mailboxes over to the same location in the new account. When I go into mail, the entire file structure is there, however it does not let me view (or search) any of the messages. The messages can be accessed through the Finder, though.
    I tried to "Rebuild" the local mailboxes, but it didn't seem to do anything. Any advice would be appreciated.

  • How can I transfer my i tunes account from my PC to my family computer (Macbook)? My husbands account is already there but we would like to see both accounts on the same computer.

    how can I transfer my i tunes account from my PC to my family computer (Macbook)? My husbands account is already there but we would like to see both accounts on the same computer.

    Copy the whole iTunes folder from the My Music directory to the Music folder in the Home directory on the Mac.
    The easiest way to do this is to create another user with the second library.
    If you want both libraries on the same user account then you will need to choose which library iTunes opens everytime you launch (hold down the OPTION key while launching) it as itunes can only read one library at a time. If you do not choose on launch it will open the last library it was connected to. You will also need to rename the iTunes folder when you move it (eg: iTunes2) because your husband's library will already be in the Music directory in a folder named iTunes.
    You can also leave your library on the PC and turn on Home Sharing. As long as you leave the PC running with iTunes open, you will be able to access it from any Mac, Apple TV or iOS devices on the network that is signed in to Home Sharing with the same  Apple ID.

  • Can two peeps use iChat with different accounts on the same computer?

    What do I do to REMOVE an old AIM account and replace it with a new account in IChat?
    Can two peeps use iChat with different accounts in the same computer?
    (Actually, two people share a laptop, but one of us cannot use her AIM account cuz mine is in iChat already... And, when traveling, I have the computer - and I would like to use iChat on the computer...)

    In iChat 4 you can have more than one AIM Valid name logged in at once.
    AIM valid = AIM, @mac.com or a MobileMe name.
    What you are then stuck with is that iChat is linked to one Buddy Picture and The one Mac User Account's Address Book which may or may not have Full Names, emails details, or a Nickname in iChat 4 linked to the Screen Names.
    Whilst it does let you both log in whilst using one Mac User Account there are drawbacks about who uses the keyboard and reading meesages from the other persons Buddies.
