Song Templates & User Account Sercutiy

I bought a Mac Pro for my Church with Logic 7.2, running OS X 4.7 I set up a template for Church services under my account and then setup other accounts for the other users. When I login as the other users and open Logic, it acts as if it is being used for the 1st time, and the template that I saved is not accessible unless I log back in as myself. How can I share this "song template" among all the users who has accounts on this system.
Thanks
Rockfort

Your template is in your user library, which is:
~/Library/Application Support/Logic/Song Templates - where "~" is your user directory
Just copy it to the global library
(Your Hard Drive name)/Library/Application Support/Logic/Song Templates

  • How do you transfer songs to second iTunes user account; same computer

    How do I transfer songs from one user account to another user account on the same computer?
    I've given my son his own account on our second computer. Prior to this, he shared his sister's iTunes account, using a playlist to populate his ipod. Now that he has his own account, he wants to transfer his music to his own account. Is it possible to do this quickly? I've been able to copy some actual song files from the first iTunes library and physically move them to the new account using a flash drive, but this is cumbersome. Any better options? Thanks.

    Sounds like a good plan. What folder/files do I move...the entire 'iTunes Media' folder?  ...and how do I point to it...through the advanced preferenced feature?
    It would be the folder you have selected as your Library folder. Usually Mac HD/Users/[User]/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
    See below:
    Select Mac HD/Users/Shared/Music - CREATE IT if need be
    Move your iTunes folder to the new Music folder. You'll probably have to "re import" the Library in iTunes. (Clear the old library first)
    But ionce it;s in the Shared Music folder, EVERY account on the comp can access those files for their own library (whichever songs THEY want) and you onle need ONE copy of everything.
    Each user can only access or modify THEIR OWN library while logged on so it prevents someone erasing another's library, because the iTunes Library file is in a locked folder when others are logged in.

  • Moving songs to a different user account on the same computer

    We have a Toshiba notebook running Windows XP Home Edition with 2 user accounts. Is there a way to copy or move all songs from one account to the 2nd account? We tried plugging the ipod in on the 2nd account but the songs don't copy down to the notebook. We also tried to share the songs on the first account but they don't show when logged in under the 2nd account. Any ideas would be appreciated!

  • How to transfer all songs from a user account to another

    On the same Windows Vista computer, how to transfer / copy all music from one user account to another without using another computer or home sharing?
    (Please also consider that the iPad will also sync with the new user account without losing any songs.)
    Note: iTunes for Windows version 11.0.4.4

    Yes, that would work too.
    The iPad backups will not be transferred, am I right?
    Hmm, I think you are right. If I recall the backup exists in the user profile, so that would be the case.
    Is it sure that the iPad will be synced with User 2 without losing any songs?
    Yes, but to be safe, backup and sync the device with user 2 before deleting user 1.
    You should also maintain a separate backup.

  • Can I transfer songs from my admin account to a new user account?

    I want to start using a user account as my main account instead of the admin account. I bought a bunch of songs from iTunes and downloaded them to my admin account.
    Can I transfer these songs from my admin account to a new user account and then de-authorized the songs on my admin account?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    If you don't change your iTMS account, you don't have to de-authorize.
    Your computer is already authorized to play the songs.
    This article tells you more about (de)authorization.
    Hope this helps.

  • My songs will be deleted if i change my user account (android)

    please answer my question.my songs will be deleted if i change my user account 

    OK....I'm stumped.  The message you are seeing is typically there to protect someone from syncing with a different computer/iTunes account.  Is there any way anyone else has used your iPad and possibly connected it to their computer?

  • I only have one iTunes account.  The other day I made the mistake of downloading purchased songs and movies logged on another user account (Administrator) on the same computer.  How do I consolidate all my purchases in my preferred user account?

    I only have one iTunes account.  The other day I made the mistake of downloading purchased songs and movies logged on another user account (Administrator) on the same computer.  How do I consolidate all my purchases in my preferred user account?

    copy the songs that you downloaded as admin and put it somewhere you can access it from you're preferred account (usb stick / cd / shared folder / external hard drive) log into with you preferred user account and drag and drop the files on top of the itunes icon and they will be imported.
    if you have a second computer you could use home sharing to move the music from admin itunes to the second computer and from the second computer to the preferred itununes
    ps you can only connect 5 computers to you're itunes account so don't forget to de-autorise when you no-longer wand it.

  • Can only export songs/ringtones to itunes on one user account

    I can't for the life of me figure out why it works fine on one user account, and on the other account (there both admin accts), it appears to be exporting to itunes but, nothing ever shows up in itunes or in the itunes music folder. Any ideas on this? I have seen a few other posts with similar problems but have not been able to find a solution. Thanks in advance.

  • Multiple users under my name, can I transfer files/data onto just one user account if I have an external H.D.  when I tried to delete info off one of the accounts it said I did not have permission? I assume I was in an account that was not admin.

    I noticed I have set up 4 Admin user accounts under my own name with diff. variations as seen in the attchment.  Some have a diff. password to log on to which I am able to do.  This computer is used for my business and I need info that is scattered on the other 3 accounts to be in/on ONE admin account. 
      I don't know how i ended up with multiple accounts.  Maybe due to having two 24" iMacs and multiple iPhones & iPad2 for me and family.   
    I use this computer for business and personal. 
    Due to multiple Admin user accounts I have important info scattered on the other accounts resulting in some accounts have some of the info to others having much more  but not ALL.   Some accounts have from a couple hundred songs, podcasts, etc. etc.  to a few 1,000 on another Admin account.   
    I want to consolidate ALL of my info, files. songs, podcasts, pictures & email etc. into one Admin account and delete the other accounts to reduce confusion. 
    I was told by my local Apple authorized service shop that it is not easy but moving most of the info is possible.  Their caveat was email would probably not be able to be moved other than forwarding each email I wanted out of each account and opening in the account I wanted to consolidate into. 
    As a side note,  I get an error message at times saying that I do not permission/authority to delete / move files?  What might be the issue when I encounter this type message?
    Thanks for any help.

  • How can I use iweb 1.1.2 for more than one user account on my macbook?

    I wonder if someone can guide me or point me to a previous answer on this, since I haven't found one. I'm simply trying to use iweb 1.1.2 on two user accounts (both labled as administrators) on our macbook. The program functions fine on one account, but when I switch over to another user account on the computer iweb will open, but does not let me start a new page, save, etc.
    Thanks much for any response.

    Welcome to the discussions. If iWeb's menus are greyed out, the following trick has worked for some:
    In the user account which does not let you start a new page, save, etc. — Quit iWeb. Start iPhoto. Select a couple of photos, click on the iWeb icon at lower right and choose Photo Page. iWeb will open up and invite you to choose a template for your new Photos page. Choose any template so that the page is created and then delete that newly created page.
    ...Now perhaps things are no longer greyed out in iWeb.

  • Can I Do This - Multiple User Accounts, Same Apple Account?

    I'm wondering if I can do this - I just got a new pc for my wife and kids, each of whom have an ipod. They have been sharing a username and Apple.com account (the xxxx@yyyy id) on the old pc, each synching their ipods with no problems.
    On the new PC, which is Vista64 based, they will have their own user account. Can they still use the same Apple account, and share the same songs/Itunes library or will there be problems?
    If problems, any suggestions for my setup?
    Thanks in advance.

    That shouldn't be a problem at all, Bruce. Have a look at this article in the Apple Knowledge Base for the general strategy and post back for any further details you may need.

  • Two Libraries on ONE user account, or multiple iTunes?

    I have a rather large library of music and spoken word
    shows that I share at work, and I'd like to split these
    into two libraries, one for those who listen to the
    Spoken Word playlists, and the other for the music lovers.
    My biggest complaint I get daily is that the 5 user limit locks out too many users and they often perch like hawks
    to get on just to hear their favorite song or to hear
    an interview.
    How do I enable the use of either two iTunes running at the same time on my mac, or the running of two libraries
    to share out, on the same mac?
    I downloaded Libra, but it only allows you to
    switch libraries one at a time, enable two or more.
    Where am I missing it?

    The library was in the user account you deleted.  You should have transferred the iTunes folder before deleting the account.
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss.  To use a device with a new computer you transfer the content from the old computer (or its backup) directly to the new computer, not the device to the new computer. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software.  See this document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991

  • How can I move an album purchased from MY user account to another account?

    I have three user accounts on my computer at home. I purchased an album through MY user account from the iTunes store for one of the other users. I figured that all I had to do was to burn those songs from my user account onto a cd then go onto the other user's account and import the songs. Problem is, it DID import the songs, but without song titles (i.e., "track 1, track 2..."). What to do?

    Thanks for the prompt response. Let me share with you two other solutions that came to my attention:
    1. Call iTunes Store Customer Support and ask them to allow you to download the album again, only, THIS time, download from the right user account.
    OR,
    2. From the RIGHT user account, do a search on the album. When you find it, the songs on the album will appear individually in the search as well. Double click on each song. It will open in iTunes (if it's the default for music files) together with the song name.

  • Share iTunes purchases between two user accounts on the same Mac?

    I have a Macbook Pro, for my bride and I, and a Macbook, for our kids. Both Macs are authorized on my iTunes account.
    So, how can I share an iTunes Store purchased song on my account with my wife's? I understand how to turn on sharing and she can see my songs in iTunes on her account, but she cannot synch them to her iPod.
    Now, I'm allowed to authorize an iTunes account on up to five Macs. I have two. But I have four accounts. Either way, I won't be exceeding five copies, but can't find a way to get a song I bought in my iTunes to my wife's iPod.
    We use the same iTunes account but don't want to have to buy things twice to get them on her iPod. Just seems weird that I could put it on five machines but not two user accounts on the same one.

    On my Mac Pro I moved the entire library to "Macintosh HD/Shared/iTunes". Changed the Folder location in iTunes Preferences->Advanced->General to point to that location. Then in each user change the Music/iTunes folder to be an alias or link pointing to the Shared/iTunes folder. You will likely need to change the permissions on that folder to give everyone the ability to read and write. Do that via "Get Info" on the iTunes folder using Finder. I'd suggest backing everything up before you do this.

  • Set up new iMac user accounts & storage locations

    I just made the switch from Windows PC to a new iMac  since it is still in the box I thought I would take some time to think about how I want to set it up before opening it and starting to dump all my files onto the new machine. I'd like to have an efficient setup and get it right from the start!
    My current (PC) set up is this:
    I have one 500Gb internal drive. Using Windows 7 I have four user accounts: me, my wife, and one each for the kids with parental controls. I would like to duplicate this setup, and I understand OS X Lion can do this.
    Now the messy part: under my account I have a bunch of docs (word, excel files, PDF's, etc, let's call this stuff "data"), a couple thousand songs, a bunch of pics and some movies. Email etc too. When I log into my account I have a my documents folder with my data files. I have an iTunes folder and in it a bunch of music. Some is from ripped cd's, some from iTunes store, some from amazon mp3 store. When I open iTunes I have a library with all of the music avail on my machine. Oh, I also have an iPad 2 and when I plug it in, it syncs with my library and apps and movies etc. I open Thunderbird and I get my email. So far so good.
    When my wife logs in she has her "my documents" folder with her data. She opens thunderbird and gets her email, not mine. More mess though: she doesn't like half the music I like, and she doesn't want to see it. When she opens iTunes she gets a library with fewer songs available, and I'm moderately sure that her songs are *copies* of what's in my music folder. Well some are anyway, some point to the music in my folder (I was not very consistent in how I added music to her library). She has an iPad 1 that syncs to her library, with only a fraction of the apps that I have. She has her own pictures too (different from mine - basically she would copy pics from the camera to her "space" but I wouldn't know it, and wouldn't see them).
    The kids accounts are relatively "clean" - just accounts with parental controls for web browsing (online kids games) etc. EXCEPT my daughter has an iPod shuffle (2Gb) and a small library of songs. I *think* this library points to my files but hey might be copies.
    I *dont* want to end up with a ton of duplicate files on my new machine like I *know* I have on my windows machine. It just eats up too much space.
    What I want to do is have one place for all of the pictures to go, and all of the music files to go, and every time there are new pics or music, it all goes there. But I want my wife to have a "smaller" music library than me (she just plain doesn't want the "clutter" of seeing my music and having to sort through it to check it/uncheck it to put it on her iPad - she's a clutter-free freak even with digital files). For photos I want to use one iPhoto library so that if she goes in there and tags some phots with some keyword or event or adds new pics, then I see those things when I open my iPhoto (I honestly don't even know how to use iPhoto to manage my pics, my iMac is till in the box). I want her to have her data under her login and my data under mine, etc. In short, there things I want shared between the two of us, and things I don't, without duplicate files eating up the space on my 500Gb internal hard drive.
    Additionally I am considering a 500Gb external drive, and rather than using it for straight up storage, using it as a time machine backup of the whole system. I am looking at a FireWire800 drive for better performance.
    I'd like to get this right the first time, but don't know enough about how os x works/sets up user accounts, and/or the best, most efficient way to set up the new iMac from the get go. I don't know if I should set up all four accounts first, then add my data/music/pics manually, or use the "migration assistant" (I have read a bit about using it but honestly don't know how it works, or if it will do what I want).
    Perhaps I could just print out this email and pay for apple one-to-one service, but I thought I'd check here first! Sorry for such a long post - but I am hoping I'm not the only one who has wanted to make the switch and start off on the right path! And it's a lot easier to learn from other peoples experience than to figure it all out on my own!
    PS: don't know if it matters much, but I also hav an iPhone that I sync with my iTunes, and I'm concerned about losing the configuration/apps/music/movies on both my iPad and my iPhone when I make the switch. Thoughts? Should I be concerned? How do I do it correctly?

    You have 90 days of free AppleCare telephone support. Give them a call and they can help you set it up, however to be honest you are way over thinking this, those old PC habits die hard! My recommendation is, take it out of the box, read the manual carefully and turn the thing on following the on-screen instructions and start enjoying your new iMac.
    BTW as new switcher I would also recommend book marking the following URLs
