Sharing Permissions: How come I can see my ENTIRE Mac??

Hi there,
I wasn't sure whether to post this in the Windows portion of the discussion boards or here, so forgive me if I've chosen the wrong location
I am running a MacBook Pro on a Windows network. I am able to connect to each computer fine. Yay! My problem: when I open my Mac from my Windows machine I can see my ENTIRE Mac HD on the network. How do I stop this?!?

Well, I don't know that much about sharing with Windows, but you use "My Network Places" to log into a specific user account on the Mac, using the account name and it's password (logging in to an account from the Windows machine will let you see all the files and folders in that account). Sharing between Macs allows you to log in as a guest, which only gives you access to Public folders, but I don't know if this is available from Windows sharing. If not, and you want to limit the access to files on your machine, you can create a "guest" account on the Mac, place files that you want to share into the /Users/Shared folder, and log into the guest account from the Windows machine (the guest account will have access to the Shared folder, but not other accounts).

  • How come I can see my div in design view but not in live view

    Hi,
    I have a div ID called "portfolio" that I can see in design view but not live view or on a browser. It's a little pink square and I want that square round also.
    I ran it through validator. It picked up some things in the style.css which I changed and the boilerplate.css that I did not. Because I thought DW auto creates code for boilerplate because I don't enter that code myself.
    It's also rejecting a lot of webkit code but this seems like standard webkit code that works elsewhere on the page.
    BTW: at what point does this brutal hand coding pay off in money and less heartache when Wordpress looks cleaner and is so much easier to use? I feel like I barely know HTML or CSS in terms of translating vision to reality and with all-browser functionality after months and months of on-line classes. How long are the pros at it till they reach a watershed point?
    here's my address: http://www.adjacentdimensionsmedia.com/home.html
    Here's my html:
    <body>
      <div class="gridContainer clearfix">
        <div id="div1" class="fluid"><img src="adtitle2.png" width="700" height="80" alt=""/></div>
      <div class="fluid"><div class="box-shad"><a href="index.html"></a></div>
      </div>
        <div id="portfolio">Portfolio</div>
    </body>
    Here's my CSS:
    .box-shad {
      margin-top: 200px;
      margin-left: 100px;
      width: 900px;
      height: 700px;
      display: block;
      background-image: url("images/Big-tree-trans1.png");
      background-size: 900px 700px;
      -webkit-box-shadow: 15px 15px 15px #000000 inset;
      box-shadow: 15px 15px 15px #000000 inset;
      -webkit-border-radius: 50%;
      border-radius: 50%;
      position: fixed;
    .box-shad a {
        display:block;
        width:900px;
        height:700px;
    #portfolio {
      width: 100px;
      height: 100px;
      margin-top: 0px;
      margin-right: 200px;
      margin-left: 200px;
      margin-bottom: 0px;
      border-radius: 75%;
      -webkit-border-radius: 75% 75%;
      background: pink;
      top: -300px;
      position: relative;

    The top:-300 is putting that div above the top of the browser viewport. Fix that and you'll see the div.

  • HELP! How come I can see images I've deleted in iPhoto library folder on iMovie?

Although when i go onto iMovie the images are there supposably in the iPhoto library folder but are unable to be located but are able to be viewed. How do I erase this? Do I have to erase the cached iPhoto library and if so how?
    Thanks!

    and I can't get them so they will be sound waves.
    if you option drag a MIDI loop from the browser into the timeline, it's pre-rendered audio sample will be used instead and you will see a sound wave.

  • HT2404 I just clicked on Software Updates; BUT nothing shows what's happening? How come I can't see the updates & time it will take?

    Help!  I just got this Lion, and SO many changes & not necessarily for the better !
    I went to the Apple icon, but  "Software Updates" did not show ... though I had deferred installing some updates ...
    Finally it showed up, I clicked on it, saw the updates to do - BUT when I clicked on install - the "box" that usually shows the updates & how long to install - just disappeared! I can't get to it to see what's next. (I have to leave soon & will turn off the mac)
    What's happening? How come I can't see the updates as they are installed, & how much time it will take?
    How do I know IF they have been installed?  Is this the "new Normal" for Lion? Or is there a glitch in my mac somewhere?
    How about updates you download from Apple (not bought) - they go to Downloads on the Sideboard, but are they installed automatically, & put where they belong too? Is there no more restart, etc.?
    - I just went to Systems Preference, to see the "Installed Software" - shows they were ... but don't I have to restart anymore? Are all updates now automatically placed where they belong?
    Thanks to any who can help
    PS One other question - just checked my "profile" & it has my email addy that's 4 years old... how do I change That?

  • HT1614 How come I can't see "Nike+" option in itunes when I plug in my iphone? I have it turned on in my iphone and have work out data in it.

    How come I can't see "Nike+" option in itunes when I plug in my iphone? I have it turned on in my iphone5 and have work out data in it.

    Hello Kanji0513,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
    I found this bit of info about the way Nike+ works on the iPhone and iPod Touches versus the way it works with other model iPods.
    Your iPod touch or iPhone 3GS or later wirelessly sends workout data to nikeplus.com from wherever you are on the road. So right after your run, you can track your progress and analyze your performance. If you walk or run with iPod nano, workout data is sent to nikeplus.com when you connect it to your Mac or PC.
    From: http://www.apple.com/ipod/nike/sync.html
    The option in iTunes only appears if you are not using an iPod Touch or iPhone.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • How come I can't use the back gesture in certain apps with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion OS?

    How come I can't use the back gesture with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion? I figured out that in Safari i have to use a 1 finger swipe to go back a page instead of 2 fingers like i used to do in Snow Leopard. But apps like iTunes and iPhoto and i can't do that. Any ideas? is there a setting im missing to make this work? It works in Safari but not any other applications, so im assuming theres no setting for this. Just want to know if this is just a bug that will be fixed in the next update or if its something I can fix now. Any help would be appreciated because its kind of annoying. Other than this minor issue I love Lion. Full screen apps are unbelievable.

  • How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:

  • HT4718 How come I can't download anything from mac app store?

    How come I can't download anything from mac app store?
    I've tried everything it all started when my apple app store icon in the doc disappeared.
    It will not go to the Mac App Store
    I have a MacBook Pro 2010 intel
    os mac mountain lion 10.8.6 however I do not have the original copy that was downloaded from the app store when I bought it.
    I NEED TO DO A CLEAN INSTALL TO GET MY APP STORE ICON BACK
    Please if anyone can help apple doesn't seem to care?

    If you need to reinstall Mac OS X 10.8.x (there is no 10.8.6 yet, by the way), restart your Mac, hold down the Option key so you see all the bootable partitons, and boot to the Recovery Partition. From there you can reinstall Mountain Lion. You will need a good Internet connection.

  • TS3672 How come i cant see any of my messages nor send any from my iphone 4?

    How come i cant see any of my messages nor send any from my iphone 4?

    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, and making sure that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), try this:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your mail is stored.
    3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see an Envelope Index-journal file there, delete it as well.
    4. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index -- Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder.

  • How come you can not use more than 126GB of a 1.5TB diskdrive with LabVIEW Real Time?

    How come you can not use more than 126GB of a 1.5TB diskdrive with LabVIEW Real Time?
    This is only 8.3% of the available disk drive space!
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/E7E2F5657B6​026358625750B007201A6?OpenDocument
    National Instrument's solution is either reformat you drive to less than 126GB or replace the drive with one less than that size.
    Please NI, tell me you are going to fix your LabVIEW Real Time soon, and that we won't have to wait for LabVIEW RT 9.2.1 in 2011 for this one to be fixed.
    http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/90​/Hard_drive_capacity_over_time.svg
    Drives as large as 126GB or more have been around since about mid 2002.  That's about 7 Years now and LabVIEW Real Time STILL can't use drives larger that 126GB!  Please NI.  Do something.
    We deserve fixes to the old versions of LabVIEW RT.  How about updates to LabVIEW RT.  Such as 7.0.2, 7.1.2, 7.6.2, 8.0.2, 8.2.2, 8.6.2.
    We don't need new features or versions of LabVIEW RT such as 9.0 until we have some of bugs fixed in the existing versions.

    NI is not making the Real Time OS in house. I do not remember which firm that is making it. Anyway you are allowed to use a hard drive that has been partitioned.

    Coq Rouge (formerly t06afre),
    The RealTime OS is an NI Product that is purchased from NI.
    NI may or may not outsource design, developement, or manufacturing of the products that it sells under its own Company name.
    For this reason I would be concerned if I were a PXI Embedded Controller designer/developer in the United States. 
    Yes, 126GB is some space.  I see that there are now 2TB drives available.  126GB would be 6.3% of a new 2TB drive.  Should we all be happy with being able to use 6.3% of the available drive space.  Moore's Law seams to be alive and well.  Drives larger than 126GB have been readily available for 5 or 6 Years.  This should not be a surprise to NI.  Why don't they do something about it.
    Thanks for the trivia on Bill Gates.  I must have missed that one since I don't try to keep up with Microsoft.  I believe that he is a wonderful person and he and his family are doing wonders for the world in their "retirement".   The world needs more like him.
    What I do remember is Steve Jobs telling us that we would never need more that 128MB and that we would never to need to do anymore software development because everything was already in the "ToolBox".

  • How come I can't swipe some of the purchased songs I have to delete them? I could on some but others I can't. Help?

    I used to just be able to swipe left on a song I have in my Music library and delete a song if I didn't want it straight from my iPhone. How come I can't do that to some of the purchased songs I have?

    Hello there, dleaupepe28.
    You are correct on the fact that you can delete a song directly from your iPhone by swiping from right to left over the song:
    Remove a song that’s been downloaded. Swipe left, then tap Delete.
    iPhone User Guide - Music
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6e2dfb83
    If the song was purchased from the iTunes Store and has a cloud icon to the right of it, it is being streamed from iTunes in the Cloud and not actually on your device.  You can hide the song by accessing the iTunes Store on the computer:
    To hide your purchases
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
    Go to the iTunes Store.
    Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
    Choose a content type by clicking on Music, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from top.
    Hover your cursor over the item you want to hide.
    You will see an "X" either to the right or left top corner of the item.
    Click the "X" to hide that item. A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the "X."
    iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    You will need to quit and relaunch the Music app on your iPhone after hiding the purchase on your computer before seeing the changes. 
    Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
