Two users editing in the same project?

We are using PP CS6 Mac and i would like to know if this is possible. The project is on a server that both users have access to. Is it possible for user A to edit sequence 1 and 2 and user B to edit sequence 3 at the same time?

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.

Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same macbook pro?

Can you transfer files between two user accounts on the same MacBook Pro?
Specifically, I used the Migration Assistant to move music and photos from my old PC to my new MacBook.
Somehow, I missed the fact that it was creating a new user account when it was doing this. So none of music and photos are in the user account I originally set-up. Instead, all these files are now in a different account.
I'd like to consolidate all my files on the one user account and delete the other one.
Is this possible and, if so, how do I do it?
Thank you.

you can crop files from one account to another using the Public Dropbox which every user account has. Log into the user that has the files you want to move, then drag the folder you want to the new users' dropbox:
I suggest a small scale test on a few files first before moving gigabytes of files.

Using the same photos and music between two user accounts in the same Mac

Hi,
I think this question might have already been asked in the forum.
1. I have one MacBook Pro and two user accounts (One for me and one for my wife)
2. We are having two seperate iPhones with seperate AppleIDs
3. We want to maintain the apps / calendar / mail / reminders / contacts as seperate - Through iCloud (Seperate Apple ID approach) - All this is fine
4. All we want to have it shared is the Music files and the Photo library without duplicating
I have tried the shared folder approach for the music and having the iTunes point to that directory for the libary location in the preferences but unfortunately if she adds a folder to the library mine does not get updated unless I do a add folder to library and vice versa.
Whats the best way to deal with the Photos / Music sharing between two user accounts on the same mac
Thanks

To give other users read-only access to your iTunes library, use the Sharing features of iTunes. Sharing works over the local network as well as on the same computer. See the built-in help for details.
To give others selective access to your iPhoto library, you have the option of using iCloud Photo Sharing, if the privacy implications don't bother you. The images will be stored temporarily on Apple servers.
If you want to give full read/write access to more than one user, see the support articles linked below.
iTunes: How to share music between different accounts on a single computer
iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users
There is a way to share the library without moving it to a secondary volume. If you really need to do that, ask for instructions.

I would like to import two different cf cards from two different cameras into the same project/folder and have them be in order of the times they were taken, is there a trick?

I would like to import two different cf cards from two different cameras into the same project/folder and have them be in the order of the times they were taken, any ideas on how to do this?

Just import them normally and sort the project by date. They will fall into place. If you tried this and it isn;t happening then make sure the data and times on the two cameras are identical and make sure you are sorting by date and time and nothing else.

Two User Accounts on the Same Screen

Is it possible to have two user accounts on the same screen other than iChat Screen Sharing?

No. OS X doesn't have any split-screen capability. However, you can switch quickly between user accounts by enabling Fast User Switching via Accounts preferences.

Can two user accounts on the same mac share the Address Book

My wife and I have separate user accounts on the same Mac but we would like to share the same Address Book. I have searched the forums to no avail. It seems silly to use .mac to do so, and a needless expense when the information is already on the same computer.

That's not possible. you have to use Mobileme if you want to share the address book.

Two user IDs for the same person in SAP

Hi Experts,
The user has somehow got the Approval from the management to get Two USer ID In SAP CRM. Now requested for Access.
As per the Best Practice, One user should have only one SAP USER ID.
Since the User is a Managaer in Sales, we have assigned the Sales Business role, If he wants a Sales pro business role that can also be assigned. He has requested for Two seperate user ID in SAP.
I want to restrict him, and let the business know what would be the implications and causes.
Can some one help with the Disadvantages of having 2 user id for same user. So that we can let Business know about the implications and consequences it will create.
Please help with your view !!!!
Regards,
karthik J

CAPS-LOCK removed...

Disadvantage.
1. Secure login for linking of SAP ID between your windows network id and SAP ID.
2. If allowed for two user ids in CRM system then he needs the same in ECC system also.
3. Trouble shooting issue in future.
Please note that, its all depend on the users justification and the requirement of the business.

Sharing iPhoto library between two user accounts on the same Mac

My wife and I each have an iPad and we share the same iMac. We each have our own user account on the iMac. She syncs with her account, and I sync with mine. This works fine in general, but we store all our photos within iPhoto on my account. She is therefore unable to sync the photos to her iPad. The same is true with the music that we keep on the iTunes in my user account.
Is there a way for her to sync so that the photos and music sync with her iPad also?

I have used a program called iPhoto Library Manager (http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/) for years and it has worked like a charm. The program handles all of the permission/subfolder aspects transparently. Our iPhoto library is stored in my wife's default location, but I have seamless read-write access to it. When I open iPhoto, I see the same thing she does, and I have complete control.
To answer your question about music, there are a couple of approaches. If you turn on Sharing in iTunes, and your wife's iTunes is set to look for shared libraries, she'll be able to have complete access to play anything in your iTunes library (as long as you have iTunes open). I believe she also has rights to copy files from your iTunes library into hers.
That's great for playback on a Mac, but what you can't do is sync an iPod/iPad/iPhone with someone else's shared library, so here's how I do it:
1) My iTunes library is our "primary" library, located in my Public folder (where other users have read-access).
2) In my wife's iTunes, library, I hit keystroke Apple-O to add content to her library, and navigated over to my iTunes Library in my public folder to select it. Once I did this, her iTunes library looked like mine.
3) The key thing is that under her iTunes Advanced Preferences, I ensure that "Copy content to iTunes library" is deselected. Otherwise, it would make a copy of my entire library on her side, and that would chew up a ton of disk space.
Note that I don't think it's entirely necessary to have the iTunes library in the Public folder. It could stay in the default location as long as you changes your music folder to have read-access by other users. I moved mine before I knew any better.
When I add new content to my library that my wife wants, we hit Apple-O from her side and add it to her library. This setup is kludgy, but a) both users can sync the music to iDevices and b) it doesn't require having two copies of everything. Note that unlike the iPhoto Library Manager solution, this is a static thing. You have to manually update the "satellite" library to keep it up to date with the main one.
I'm not in front of my Mac, so some of my notations may not be completely accurate.
Good Luck!

Can TWO Editors Work On The SAME Project Separately ??

Have Premier CS3 on XP
We have a heavy edit this week for a film festival.
Can one editor work on part 1 on one PC machine...and another editor work on part 2 on a mac...and then somehow... be able to transfer the mac timeline over to the PC machine for final work.
What special gottcha tricks do I need to know???
We can get both editors to use the same clip names. They will be on different drives...but the same structure...the same directories and filenames exactly on each drive. The Mac version would copy the master clips folder im thinking. Both machines...same raw materials.
Im just concerned that we may forget to do an important step... and not be able to successfully bring all the edit timeline pieces over so they point correctly.
Thanks for your critical tips and tricks
Susan

Should work OK, as long as you're using the same media source for both platforms/projects. In other words, you need to be working with something like DV AVIs or QT DV MOVs with both. One platform will suffer because it's not as tuned to work with the other platform's media, but it's doable. You could capture the same media to each platforms native media (DV AVI on PC, QT DV MOV on Mac), but relinking once you transfer from Mac to PC will be a nightmare. If you're working with something like P2 MXF, though, this will be a breeze--just point to the proper directory and everything will be fine. This is a major benefit of PPro's native handling of such media, IMO.
You could also copy the media over, wholesale, from Mac to PC--I think this is what you're saying now that I'm reading your post again. I'm guessing that in this case, both machines would NOT be working with the same material originally, correct? Just note that you may have file system incompatibilities going from Mac to PC. Mac uses the HFS file system, whereas your PC is probably using NTFS. FAT32 is common to both systems (can be read/written on each) but you're limited in supported file sizes to less than 4GB. If you've got an HFS-formatted external drive you'd be moving to the PC, I recommend
HFS Explorer. It will allow you to mount and extract data from your HFS-formatted disc on the PC. There is also MacDrive, which is more tightly integrated with PC (disks show up as native filesystems in Explorer) but it's not free. Time might be an issue, though, and MacDrive might be the better option. There is a free limited trial, I believe.
Beyond that, just import the Mac-generated project into the PC-generated project, and relink your files. BE SURE TO DO THIS ON A COPY OF YOUR PC PROJECT, just in case the unthinkable happens. From there, the projects should be successfully merged, and you can proceed with final assembly. I would suggest keeping your additional timeline items to a minimum in the Mac project (ie. audio, graphics, titles, etc) just to eliminate possible transfer headaches. I really don't think you'll face an issue, but it could wreck your day if something goes haywire.
Finally, and most importantly, test this out if you value your sanity. This is not something you want to simply "hope" works without any sort of field trial. This should work perfectly well, but I assume to responsibility if it does not!
Good luck...

We have two users that access the same mailbox but want separate user profiles when they respond to e-mails.

We have two users who want to use the same inbox. For example, when one user sends an e mail, it appears to be from the other user. We want to change this situation. How can we make that happen?

Two user accounts using the same home folder

This may sound like a silly or goofy question, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to use two different user accounts, but with each using the same home folder?
I was wondering because there are many different settings I would like to use for different settings. Kind of like a "Spaces on Steroids." When I'm at school, I'd like to use one Network Settings, one desktop and icons, one Dock, etc. And when at home, a different set of each, but still using the same home folder.
Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated.

The problem is, most of those settings are kept in the home folder.
You could probably do what Softwater suggests, with an AppleScript, or perhaps an Automator workflow, but it's not without some serious downsides. You'd need one for each setup.
At least one complication would be, any change you wanted to make to each setup would have to be done to that script; you couldn't just drag something into (or out of) the Dock.
Another theoretical possiblility would be to have separate user accounts, but use the special Shared user folder for your data. You'd have to select it as a souce or destination for each app you use, but many will remember that from use to use.
The complication would be permissions. When you save a document there, the user that saved it is the owner, with read & write rights. All other users have read-only rights, so could view and open them, but not update them. You'd probably want to create one or more sub-folders in the Shared account (for various types of files), and you could probably set a Folder Action on each to grant read & write permissions to anything created in them.
Then you could set up the desired network location, Dock, and Desktop for each user account.

I have two user accounts with the same name, but cannot access the old one anymore - all my purchases are on that account! How do I merge the accounts, or recover that particular one?

I recently encountered a problem with both my account, for some reason it wouldn't accept my new password. And this was about the fith time I'd had to change it! I even wrote it down to ensure I wasn't mistyping it. But for some reaon it wasn't letting me log in form my phone or from my ipad. So I tried to reset it once again. However when I visited the website and searched for my username, it came back saying my 'account name doesn't exist!' I tried again and again but nothing. I thought maybe it would fix itself if I created a new account with the same details, so I did. But now none of my past purchases or my wishlist are showing up - and all my details are exactly the same! I've tried logging in using the old passwrd for my 'other' account but it's not working. And I tried searching for it again to reset the passwrod but it only resets this NEW account.
I tried sending a request for help, but I need someone with more authority to talk to.

Two users working on the same archive

We have an archive of about 5000 and are working together adding keywords.
While we're pretty sure that we have to split the archive in two, and create two seperate libraries, we're not so sure about merging our libraries when we're finished.
Any ideas?
Many thanks.

exporting and importing "projects" (only available in the relevant menu when a project is selected) will allow you to move pix with all the added work (keywords, sorting, stars, adjustments) from one aperture library to another.
not perfect, but the best there is to migrate parts of a lib from one computer to another...

Working with two aspect ratios on the same project?

Hello fellow FCE HDers!
I am currentley editing a project that has both 16:9 and 4:3 and would like to be able to use both. Can this be done without streching and shrinking the shots? Is there a happy medium.
Thanks G

Sometimes. You have to decide whether you want the widescreen material letterboxed, or the 4:3 material pillarboxed. Or do a lot of scaling that will soften the image.
