Two mac users on same computer

I have searched the forum on this one but I am obviously entering the wrong search terms: we have a macpro with two users and one licence running cs3. does this create an issue with licencing? It is the same machine doing the same job. We only have two users for different email settings but could just as well have a single user.
Thank you
antonio

No, it does not.

  • Lightroom 3.6, two Mac users on same computer, sharing same catalog?

    Lightroom 3.6, Mac 10.7.4, images storred on networked 3TB RAID 2 hard drive, trying to use program and same catalog by two different users on the same machine. Installed program on my wife's user account, moved catalog into her Public folder, set file sharing to allow me to Read/Write all files in the folder. Quit Lightroom, logged off as her, logged on as me, started Lightroom. Lightroom asks me to selecet a catalog, I navigate to her Public folder and select the catalog created under her login. Lightroom will not open catalog, stating that the file isnot writable.
    Have looked under System Preferences and confirmed file sharing status that allows both her and me to Read/Write to all files in her Public folder. Confirmed that I quit Lightroom under her account (not just minimized) and logged off as her (not just switching users).
    I sure hope that this is possible - I don't want to log on as my wife every time I need to use the program and have to look at her wallpaper and file organization. My bigger goal is to set things up so that I can buy another Mac for me, buy another copy of lightroom, and access the same catalog from the other machine via our LAN.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Using iPhoto library by two accounts on the same computer

    I have tried to use iPhoto across two accounts on the same computer using the fast switching.
    I have found that i could access the iPhoto library by opening the app with the option key down and pointing the user to the library in the primary account.
    the library shows up in the second account, but no longer in the primary account.
    since it would be better and more useful for me to have the library show up in the primary account, now I cannot switch back.
    the app finds the library OK from the secondary user, but not for the primary.
    i just get a message that the photos are loadig, left it for three hours, and nothing loaded. the library appears to be intact.
    I can point the primary user app to the backup disk and see all of the photos there, but don't know what to do to bring things back to normal here.

    this problem is solved.

  • 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

  • HT3819 Can you home share with two libraries on the same computer?

    Can home share be used with two libraries on the same computer?

    iTunes must be running for home sharing to work.  There is no way to have home sharing running simultaniously for two users on the same computer.
    Simply add the media files using File > Add File/Folder option in iTunes.

  • Mime attachments in Mail from two mac users

    I've been receiving mime attachments in Tiger Mail from Ebay and members for a while and I've searched the forum for answers but haven't found a viable solution yet. I end up using TextEdit to open them. I've contacted ebay about this and they have no clue, and think it's spam even though I tell them I get them from Ebay tech support, however they do show up ok in my RCN webmail when I check there.
    Anyway that's not the problem now, I was trying to troubleshoot my father's mail problem who is Panther Mail and it mysteriously stopped working for him a couple days ago both sending and receiving. However he is getting them from his webmail at SBC/Yahoo formerly Ameritech. I checked his account settings over the phone and they seemed correct to what he had before but I had him contact his provider.
    They don't seem to know what's going on and wanted him to contact Apple.I had him contact them again and they finally did have him change his outgoing mail server from Ameritech to SBC/Yahoo. So he is able to send from there now but not receive emails. ( he still still sends and receives ok at his webmail site) . Since they changed the outgoing mail server however, the email he sends me (all plain text) is coming now as a mime attachment.
    I've never seen this before from two Mac users using Mail and plain messages. I had him try changing back to the Ameritech outgoing sever but that still doesn't work. And again if I check my RCN webmail I can view these messages fine in the body of the email there, just not in Mail. Any ideas what may have caused this? Is it because of the Yahoo outgoing mail server? He's about givin up and has resorted to his webmail only for now. I generally like Mail but this is a pia.

    <Where is it designated as a "mime-attachment" & where does the "27bytes" text appear?>
    It shows mime-attachment(27bytes) just below the little plain document icon. This shows up both in the body of the email and also the little attachment drop down menu below the To / subject area.
    <Also, if you go to Mail's View > Message submenu when one of these messages is open, which (if any) 'alternate' menu choices are available (not grayed out)? >
    All are greyed out except Long headers and Raw source.
    Here is the header info in the message if that helps any:

  • I have two iphones using the same computer and I can only find a backup for my iphone and not my girlfriends.  She uses itunes a lot more often then I do but cant find it

    I have two iphones using the same computer and I can only find a backup for my iphone and not my girlfriends.  She uses itunes a lot more often then I do but cant find it.  Really need some help.  Shouldnt her apps and details be saved online in the itunes store?  Even her apps wont appear

    If you create an Apple ID for your daughter, signing out of the existing Apple ID with the iTunes & App Store on her iPhone will not change anything on your iPhone.
    All apps include DRM protection which is tied to the Apple ID that was used to download the apps.
    If she starts using her Apple ID to download apps, when there is an app update for an app on her iPhone that was downloaded with the current shared Apple ID, she will need to use that Apple ID and password to download the app updates.

  • How do you open a Numbers file sent from another Mac user with same operating system, i get a pop up that says I'm missing an index.hml file??? HELP PLEASE

    how do you open a Numbers file sent from another Mac user with same operating system, i get a pop up that says I'm missing an index.hml file??? HELP PLEASE

    The operating system may be the same but the Numbers applications are likely different.  You need to get the apps in sync.  Unfortunately, the Numbers (and Pages as well) saga is pretty confusing (and frustrating).  Here's some info from the iWork resident version expert (PeterBreis0807):
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs.

  • Using two ipods on two Windows accounts for same computer

    I am trying to connect and iPod nano but it does not appear in the Devices section of iTunes.  Rather, when I plug in my iPod to my Windows Vista computer, I get an error "The software required for communicating with the iPod is not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes to install the iPod's software.".  It does appear in Windows Explorer.
    Yet my daughter has her own (i.e. a second) iPod and iTunes functions properly for her when she accesses it from her windows account.
    I have tried unistalling the iTunes software and reinstalling it but I still get the same error in my account.  I have gone through most of the troubleshooting steps in iTunes support but nothing has helped.  Is it not possible to manage two ipods with the same computer from two different accounts or is it something else?
    Any other thoughts?

    Apple intentionally made the iPod to work this way to help stem the illegal sharing of copyrighted material which is what you are trying to do.
    "i have tried to "transfer purchases from ipod" but this does not work either, even though i have authorised the computer."
    Doesn't work that way. It wasn't your iTunes account that purchased the music.

  • I have two libraries on the same computer but different logins, there is my user account for the computer and then there is my grandma's, how do i get my music without having to resync on both libraries?

    this computer has two logins, my grandma's (which is the administrator) and mine, itunes is on both logins but on my login i have some music there and hers i have my other music.. i want to be able to redownload my music on my ipod touch with out having to resync back and forth between libraries.. how do i combine the libraries because if i go with one or the other i lose my music i have purchased, on both libaries the music belongs to me not my grandma,
    Also, a few weeks ago, I loaned the IPOD to somebody and they told me that evidently the IPOD had been hacked and that it had lost all the music.  When I got it back, I re-synced it and got some of the music back.  After talking to other people, I now suspect that my "friend" tried to do something he wasn't suppose to to and the IPOD shut down or that he was trying to create an Apple ID of his own without paying for it.  Now that I have it back, I just want to get the music back that I paid for that is already associated with my ID and that is in my two libraries.  I can see them in there (on the computer), I just can't access them to download  them on the IPOD.  Can you help?

    There are actually a few methods for using more than one iPod on a single computer: How To Use Multiple iPods with One Computer
    Just to summarise what's in the link above:
    Method one is to have two Mac or Windows user accounts which by definition would give you two completely separate libraries.
    Method two is to set your preferences so that either one or both iPods get updated with only certain playlists within one library. If you've had no success with this you can have a look through the guide on this page: Loading songs onto iPod automatically
    Another option when using a single library is to set one or both of the iPods to manual update: Managing content manually on iPod
    You can read about Windows user accounts here: Using Windows XP User Accounts

  • Is it possible to share the same iCal on two MAC users?

    Please help me. Is it possible for me to share the same iCal on two different MAC users? I know that you can sync it to an ipod or iphone, but can you share it on the same MAC with another user?
    If anyone knows, please tell me! Thank you!

    I think the easiest way to share calendars between the two users on the same Mac is by using Google Calendars/Calaboration.
    (http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=99358#ical)
    After following the instructions in the link, export your iCal calendar and import it into the new Google Calendar. All events will appear in the new Google calendar which you can see in iCal or gmail. Set this up with the same google account information used when configuring the first user account and both users will be able to write and/or remove events in the calendar using iCal.
    Hope this helps.

  • Two users on same computer how to use the same program and data

    Two users on one computer how to share a program and it's data

    As Kappy said, each of you should have your own account. By default all programs are installed in the Applications folder so all users on the computer will be able to use the software. With a few restrictions data you want to share between two users can be placed inside the Shared folder - look inside the Users folder for it. Data that gets placed in the Shared folder will retain the owner/creator's rights so if you want other user(s) to be able to do more than open the document you'll need to change the permissions of the file to include that user.
