Sharing/filesharing: cant add shared folder and users

my filesharing and screensharing iMac / MBP via wifi works in principle, but......
on the MBP i can add shared folders and modify the users. if i try do do that *on my iMac it fails*. the *menubar disappears and the computer hangs* so that a forced shudown and restart is necessary.
yes, i did diskcheck, permission repair, trashed the com.apple.preferences.sharing.plist and did a combo 10.5.4 system update, all without success.
i have back to my mac activated without error message, but i am not shure if it works (how can i test that?)
thanks for hints!

I have the same problem. Any Solution?
Thanks

I thank you for the response. Apple does some assinine things sometimes and this is one of them. Ask the planet the difference between a movie and a home video and with the exception of Apple, you'd get 100% consenus on the what difference is. A home video is something that I shoot, like my kids birthday party. A movie is something I urchased either via download or a DVD that I ripped. Unbelievable! The fact that Apple has chosen not to distinguish based upon which folder I tell it is Movies and which folder is Home Videos is really hard to fathom - sounds like something Windows would do. I find it funny that in my iTunes movies sub-section of the movies section, the movie icons have a cloud icon in upper right corner to distinguish it as bought from Apple iTunes versus no cloud icon for movies that I have ripped - so the distintion was already made and clearly visible. Now - everything just defaults to "home videos" if I try to import a new ripped DVD - why even bother to have this distinction on the iTunes bar? WOW!
As for your direction, I do not understand what you are telling me - what Media Kind and what Options tab are you referring to? I see no Options tab in iTunes. Right licking on the movie icon does not yield media kind or options as well. Gping to the source file does not yield these options either.
Thanks again for your help.

Shared photostream cant add subscriber

i can receive shared photostream invites, but cant create my own, well cant create one, but cant add subscribers why?

Can the RECIPIENT of a shared photo delete that photo from the Shared Photo stream on THEIR device or can only the ORIGINATOR OF THE SHARED PHOTO remove the shared phot by deleting it from the originating device? In case I have not described the issue properly here is the situation. I wish to share photos that I take on my iPhone 5 with my wife's iPad 2. She wants to be able to delete those photos from her iPad after she has viewed them. I can not figure out how to delete my shared photos directly from her iPad except by deleting them from the Shared Photos my iPhone.

Is there a way to create an automated job to add andupdate groups and users for Connect?

Is it possible and does anyone have experience with being able to create an automated load of new groups and users in Adobe Connect. We have an On-premise deploymentwill be setting up the application to be open outside our company to train channel partners. We have a separate database of channel partner contacts, email addresses, passwords, and training groups that they should be in based on their partner company or product knowledge. We would like to be able to create a front end database that would create a group based on the partner company or based on product knowledge. Then we would like to add users to these groups. Any knowledge of whether this is possible and if anyone has done it?

There are also size limitations or rather suggestions for particle size. If I were creating an animated 3D shape using Form or C4D and wanted to use it as a particle I would keep the size of the particle about 1/6 to 1/8 of the comp size. You would create a new comp for your particle, animate it, then nest the particle comp in your main comp, turn off visibility, and then use it as a particle in Particular.

Sharing Itunes library between an admin and user account on one imac G5

Hello,
Please forgive the repetitive question. i have set up an admin and a user account on my iMac. I set the itunes library to users/shared/music/itunes/itunes library on both accounts. The music shows up on the admin account but not the user account.
Can anyone give a quick step by step including obscure settings that may need to be altered so that I can finally get this pesky stress monkey off my shoulder!
Thanks!

Someone recently poasted a similar problem as yours.

I cant add new bookmarks and history buttons are not working

in red color lettering on the bottom right corner of the firefox windows says this: Torbutton: Please file bug report! Error applying Tor settings: [Exception...

Every time Firefox opened
== 6/8/2010 after installing it as one of the instructions on how to fix bookamrks from your forum

There is no need to install the Torbutton extension in case of problems with lost bookmarks.
You can skip that step if it doesn't apply (you do not have Torbutton in the first place).
You can uninstall that extension via Tools > Add-ons > Extensions

Which adobe to use, I was told to down load the newer version and the add/remove folder says I have 10.1.82.76, is tehis the one I need?

The latest update from Firefox said I HAD to update Adobe or there would be a security problem. I replied to the answer about the edit bar, but have not received a reply:
This is what I wrote:
Thank you for helping me. I had no idea how to do that. Now if you can tell me about the adobe issue I would so appreciate it. I do use Firefox and I went to add/remove to see which version and could not find the Adobe 10.1.82.76 it said I had??? Then I just went back and it is there. I was told I HAD to update the Adobe because of a security issue, but when I went to add it, it said warning the program I was about to add might be dangerous????? So I have it on the down load thing, I have not told it to run, but it shows up in my add/remove folder and I am SO confused??? Do I need to run it? I went to the adobe site and found it when I could not find the "edit" button. I am not sure if I have the right version. It said certain versions would not run with Firefox and I do not want to mess up my computer.
Please advise

Is there a way to add a folder to my ipad

hi can i add a folder to put all my read or finished with emails, cant seem to be able to.
anyone know, i have an imac and that does it no probs but dont seem to have the option on my ipad ????

Cannot believe the so called experts do not know how to add a Folder in iPad Mail. Yes if yours is a POP account you cannot do it in your main acoount. But if you go into your mail folder where all your Mailboxes are under the Accounts list at the bottom is a list of any accounts you have. One of them should be iCloud, this is an IMAP account. Click on iCloud, and the Folder that opens has an edit button at the top, click on that and at the bottom it has a New Mailbox button, select that and it allows you to add a Folder and name it what you like, you can do this as many times as you want. After that you can select any email you receive, select edit, at the bottom there are three options, one is Move, select that and you can move the email to the folder of your choice, Remember these Folders will be in the iCloud Account.

Adding phones and users with bat and LDAP sync

What are the various ways of importing users with phones when the Communications Manager 9.0 is sync'd with LDAP. Also, what method is the easiest and fastest?
For example, I could do the following steps:
Sync CUCM with LDAP to import new users, add phones using bat files, manually update users to associate devices etc
I believe I should also be able to do the above method and use a bat file to update the users to associate devices etc. This method still involves 2 steps and the creation of 2 seperate bat files.
In CUCM version 9 it is possible to have local and LDAP users, so is it possible to add the phones and users using the phones/users tab of the bat file and have them beocme LDAP users?
Thank you,
Danny

Add Parent Folder missing?

In the Lightroom 3 Library Module, there is an Add Parent Folder function. It appears no longer to be present in Lighrroom 4. Has it moved, or is there some new way of accomplishing this?

hbortman wrote:
Add Parent Folder, in LR3, creates a new folder, one that doesn't yet exist.
No, I'm afraid it doesn't. I think you're a little confused between "Add Parent Folder" and "Create New Folder".
"Add Parent Folder" is an option available in the context menu when you right-click (Ctrl+Click) on the displayed top-level folder of a folder hierarchy, and causes the next level up to be displayed. For LR4 this has been renamed to "Show Parent Folder" (which is probably less confusing). The opposite of "Add Parent Folder" in LR3 is "Promote Sub-folders", which causes the particular top-level folder to be hidden (thus 'promoting' the next level down). For LR4 this has been renamed to "Hide this Parent".
Adding a not-yet-existing-in-the-catalog folder via the Folders Panel is achieved by clicking on the '+' sign to the right of the Folders Panel header (which is labelled "Create New Folder" in the tool-tip) and choosing "Add Folder" or "Add Sub-Folder". For new folders this will result in a folder being added to the catalog with a zero photo count. Adding an already-existing folder which contains photos will cause the Import dialog to be presented.

Concern with "File Sharing: On" -- my root user folder (and subfolders) and Macintosh HD is visible

Hi all,
When I set up a File Sharing folder in OSX called "Share", I connected from my PC to my Macbook Pro and not only did I see the "Share" folder but I also could see and have total access to my root user folder (all its subfolders too) and my Macintosh HD (hard disk). Did I miss something? All I did was check mark "File Sharing" in the Sharing option of System Preferences. Then I specifically shared only the "Share" folder that I created on the OSX desktop.
How do I turn of sharing for the root user folder and my Macintosh HD folder?
Many thanks in advance!

Yes, I was logging in from my PC laptop to Mac as the Admin. However, since there is a User called "Everyone" and I, for testing purposes only, turned Read/Write on for "Everyone", I figured I did not have to set up another user (such as "Guest"). I was wrong. Once I created a new user called "Guest" and specifically checked the Guest account in the SMB option, it worked in the restricted mode I was hoping for. Thanks!

I'm trying to share folder between users on a single mac. I put the folder in "shared," set permissions so other user can read and write, enabled file sharing, but can't find the folder on the second user's account. Any help?

I'm trying to share a folder between users on a single mac. I want both users to be able to read and write so the folder stays current on both accounts. I put the folder in "shared," set permissions on folder so other user can read and write, enabled file sharing, but can't find the folder on the second user's account. Any help?

Did you log out of one account and into the other or just used Fast user switching?
Is the permissions set to anyone?
When you move data to teh Shared folder is it copied or just moved?
If copied then it's not a folder both can access, just a way station like a USB thumb drive that things are coped too and off of likely.
You can run this #5 on each user account to reset the user permissions once they are taken back out of the Shared folder

Multiple users on home LAN sharing both the Music folder and library

Hi there,
I've been hunting around the web and not found anything that helps me with this specific situation though various articles come close but I've not actually succeeded yet, I was wondering if anyone can help.
I have a Windows XP home PC, 2 user login profiles, both share the same music folder but have different librarys.Using Itunes 10.
I've recently purchased a NAS, I have successfully moved the music folder to the NAS and now also have a netbook (windows 7) seeing the same music folder.
What I want is to have any users/PCs to have the same music folder and the same library on Itunes.
Where I come unstuck is the library as I want the library from the primary user on the PC to be the master, I want this located on the NAS and I want any machine/user to share this same library. I know it's the Itunes folder in My Music, I can easily move that but most forums suggest starting Itunes holding down shift andselecting a new library but I do not get this option.
Instead, I go into the library options but the library command to compile (can't remember exactly that command) seems to retain the local library store.
Is there a way I can just add my NAS located music folder and point Itunes to a different itunes folder for the library?
Separately, I'd like to know if there is an option to keep a local copy of the music and photos folders, I'd like the netbook to be able to this as a backup of the NAS.
Really appreciate any help on this.
Thanks.

It is not really practical for multiple users on different PCs to use the same library database. This is because the iTunes database is not multiuser, the can however share the same content files.
So each PC will need it's own library database (iTunes Library.itl) which in this case is best located on the users own PC.
Utilities such as Tune ranger can keep libraries in sync:

For backup, some people find synctoy a free utility from Microsoft works for them.

Users cannot edit a shared calendar of a shared mailbox that was deleted from the cloud and recreated on premise

Description:
The following example account [email protected] is an on premise AD account being used as a shared mailbox in the cloud. We have discovered that regardless of what we do, not a single user can edit the calendar entries.
The following message is shown in Outlook Click to Run 2013 when an entry. "New appointment" button is also greyed out, including "Calendar Permissions" and some others.
This problem started when the shared mailbox was created wrongly by creating it in the cloud first and we had to delete it and start over. The "in the cloud" user was deleted and the same user was created in AD on-premise with the same account name
and then Dir Synced with the cloud. A license was assigned, a user mailbox on exchange online created and the type was converted to a shared mailbox and Editor rights were defined on the calendar folder for specific users.
Actions performed:
Action01: gave users Editor rights on calendar folder through powershell
Result01: Rights correctly added and can be seen when get-mailboxfolderpermission is ran
Action02: Opened calendar with Outlook and tried to edit entries
Result02: Error message pops up saying "You don't have permission to create an entry in this folder. Right click the folder and check..."
Action03: Opened calendar with OWA of users
Result03: Users can edit the shared calendar on OWA
Action04: Gave users Full Access permission on mailbox with automapping on
Result04: Users can edit calendar in Outlook
Action05: Gave users Full Access permission on mailbox with automapping off (mailbox no longer visible in outlook)
Result05: Users cannot edit calendar in Outlook
Action06: Removed Full Access permission on mailbox for users
Result06: User cannot edit calendar in Outlook
Action07: Removed [email protected] from on-premise AD, performed dirsync, removed account from ms online using remove-msoluser -removefromrecyclebin
Result07: No trace of the account was anywhere to be found.
Action08: Created new [email protected] account on on-premise AD, assigned o365 license to user including exchange online license
Result08: New empty Exchange online mailbox was created
Action09: gave users Editor rights on calendar folder through powershell
Result09: Rights correctly added and can be seen when get-mailboxfolderpermission is ran
(Note: whenever mailboxfolder permissions are modified for this mailbox it's as if they are ran THREE times in a row, the first time they are applied and the powershell gives immediately 3 exceptions behind this:
An existing permission entry was found for user: [email protected]
    + CategoryInfo          : NotSpecified: (:) [Add-MailboxFolderPermission], UserAlreadyExis...nEntryException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : [Server=DBXPR05MB046,RequestId=3b3e080e-9aaf-4db9-9b90-b7171d59eba2,TimeStamp=7/11/2014
   8:15:39] [FailureCategory=Cmdlet-UserAlreadyExistsInPermissionEntryException] 57078FCD,Microsoft.Exchange.Manageme
nt.StoreTasks.AddMailboxFolderPermission
    + PSComputerName        : outlook.office365.com
Any other mailbox does not do this when setting mailboxfolder permissions)
Action10: Opened calendar with Outlook and tried to edit entries
Result10: Error message pops up saying "You don't have permission to create an entry in this folder. Right click the folder and check..."
Action11: Tried on a fresh new pc with first time logon
Result11: did not help
Additional information:
We have seen this problem with another user which was recreated, when he shares his calendar with others and people get the calendar invite email and click "Open Calendar" they receive a popup "The folder cannot be found".
My first impression points to a corruption/bug in the GAL on exchange online, since we're using o365 for midsize bussinesses we cannot use the AdressList role to expose the adresslist cmdlts for deeper troubleshooting.
PS:
Issue tested on different computers and with different user accounts, not a single user can edit the calendar of [email protected] when editor rights are given.
Noticed when editing rights for the shared mailbox in powershell after the first confirmation line
Office 2013 is click to run was updated to latest version, version number: 15.0.4659.1001

Greetings Gil,
I haven't heard of that one.
Questions:
Does the calendar in question show up in the "Subscriptions" category of iCal?
If you remove all accounts from iCal > Preferences > Accounts and quit and re-open iCal, does the calendar in question vanish? If so, does the calendar come back when you re-input the servers you need into iCal > Preferences > Accounts?
Can you provide a screen shot of your calendar sidebar.
While you answer those questions, some troubleshooting to try:
Try dragging one of your other calendars above this calendar that won't delete and then quit / re-open iCal and attempt to delete the calendar in question.
Failing that:
1. First make an iCal backup: Click on each calendar on the left hand side of iCal one at a time highlighting it's name and then going to File Export > Export and saving the resulting calendar file to a logical location for safekeeping.
2. Go to iCal > Quit iCal
3. Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
4. Launch iCal and test.
If the issue persists at this point:
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches > com.apple.ical
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache if present)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
---NOTE: Removing these files may remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Hope that helps!
