Viewing someone else's photostream on a Windows PC.

I received an email invitation to someone else's photostream. The email is in my work Outlook email. I have tried everything to figure out how to view the photostream on my windows pc with no success. Support online says I can use icloud control panel, but I see nothing there. Any ideas?

Do you have an Apple ID setup as an iCloud account?
See iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
To use Photo Stream, including Shared Photo Streams, you need an iCloud account, compatible devices, and up-to-date software:…
PC with Windows 7 or Windows Vista (Service Pack 2) and the iCloud Control Panel v2.0 or later for Windows
Further down it says:
Friends and family with iCloud accounts can view your photos in the Photos app on any device using iOS 6 or later; on a Mac in iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later; on a Windows PC with Windows Vista or later and iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed; or on a second generation or later Apple TV with software version 5.1 or later installed. They can also view your photos on the web if you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your Shared Photo Stream.
(So they can enable Public Website viewing to allow you to see them with a browser even if you don't have an iCloud account.)
See also Creating an iCloud account: Frequently Asked Questions
Which states you must setup your Apple ID as an iCloud account on a Mac or iOS device.
You can sign up for iCloud on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later, or through System Preferences on a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later. Just follow the setup instructions for your iOS device or Mac.
Does that work for you?

I've got someone else's photos on my photostream

My photostream has disappeared and I now have someone else's photos in my photostream. How do I get rid of them and get my photos back.
I Haven't updated my software or lost any of my apple devices so I don't know why this is happening.

No I don't share my Apple ID or iTunes account, the photos aren't local either. I've now changed my apple password so I think that'll stop it but now all my photos are gone, I assume on someone else's photostream?

I was referred to this site when I looked for answers to why I got Fatal Error message with error code c0000005 when trying to upload photos to my computer. I see that someone else asked the same question, 90 people viewed but no answer given?

It looks to me like it is a problem on your Windows computer not being able to start an application. See the following link to Microsoft Community support (although the specifics of the problem in that case may not be applicable) and also note all of the "Related Content" at the upper right side of that link (and there may be others if you search that forum). http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-system/the-applicatio n-is-unable-to-start-correctly/bbb9c037-77b3-4fae-93b9-ded70f7f9a17
It may help if you know or can determine which program Windows is trying to open when you upload photos -- there can be many different ones and it can be set by the user. If you are using Windows 7, you may need to check your Autoplay settings. There are some instructions in the following link that may help and that discuss how you can use Windows Explorer to manually transfer the photos: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

How can I view my iCloud contacts from someone else's iPhone? I don't want to change their phone settings.

Yesterday I ran into a problem that was eye opening to say the least. I could not not access my contacts in order to find a friend's phone number. No one remembers phone numbers any more. God knows I don't.
I was on a jetski and it broke down. I was stranded at a dock miles away. I needed to contact my friend to tell him (a) I'm ok, (b) where I was, (c) to bring a tow. Of course I had no phone on me because it would have gotten soaked.
People were kind enough on the dock to let me use their smart phones to attempt to retreive the phone number and call for help. But I quickly discovered that it is impossible.
On an iPhone, I tried to use their Safari browser to go to www.icloud.com. When you do that, it simply redirects you to the apps. But it isn't my phone, and their apps are logged in to the owner's accounts. I wasn't about to update the settings in a stranger's phone.
One guy let me try his iPad with Cellular. Same problem as the iphones. It would not let me use www.icloud.com. It insisted that I use the native iOS apps.
On an Android, www.icloud.com would simply refuse to work. It would say it was not supported.
The question I have is: How can I view my contacts from someone else's smart phone in an emergency situation?
Second question: Why can't I use www.icloud.com on a smart phone's web browser like I can on regular computer?
I got lucky. I happened to know my mom's home number. Many hours later she was home and I was able to use a phone to call her. She brought up www.icloud.com on her home computer, logged on as me, and read me the phone number I was seeking. But what are the chances of being able to call a trusted person who has access to a computer to do this for you?

Without "pretending" to be yourself on the other phone (change settings) there's nothing else you can do.
iOS devices are meant to be single user and can't view iCloud.com the same way a Mac or PC can do.
You need to find a desktop or laptop machine (Mac or PC) to log in at iCloud.

Can I share my iCloud Photostream with someone else with a different Apple ID? How?

Can I share my iCloud Photostream with someone else with a different Apple ID? How?

Yeah no kidding.
I have a big paid up MobileMe account with tons of gallery stuff - this will all go away for me in July, and I'll miss it - it took no learning to use, and it was built into everything - just intuitive to post to a gallery password protect it, and send a link to a friend. Click click done!
It bothers me a lot when features I really enjoy and use are pulled in these half baked new apps and services.
iMovie used to be quite good, but the new one is very restrictive - it's a step backwards in some ways.
MobileMe was fine, but iCloud takes away the Gallery???? - another step backward.
We use some iPhones at work for shooting some videos and technical engineering photo's, and while it's pretty cool that the iPhone photo's get put on the photostream of "Jason's iMac", I don't have instant access, and I would really like to be able to do that. If it could be done, then I can stay at home and work sometimes and I can get the photo's automagically.
Apple - please fix this.

Someone else's picture on my Photostream

First time posting on here so be gently
I've just been looking through my photos on my AppleTV device and found that there is a photo on there that I didn't take (i.e. - Someone elses photo !!).
How is it possible that I have an image from someone else's stream and more importantly, does this mean that my photos could be floating around on someone else's ???
I've also checked on my Mac and the photo doesn't have any location information, but has a time and date of Feb last year on a day that I was at work.
It's also quite clearly taken in another country and I haven't even been abroad in the past few years (Sad I know ).
Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Cheers all

I don't have an answer, but a possibly related situation (pre-Photostream). Several years ago I was on a cruise and the ship had free wifi all over, including the cabins. I had my MacBook Pro with me, and one day the woman in the cabin next to mine told me that she had opened iPhoto on her own Mac and all my pictures were there. She didn't know what to do and was afraid to delete them, so she left them alone. Later they were gone. I never understood why this would happen.
Also, before I had Photostream, my iPad (I) had only one picture on it, and it was one that I had never seen before and that looked like it was taken in another country.
Could this picture be an Apple "Easter egg"?

How can I view a Word document when it tells me that someone else is using the document? This is not true as I am the only one using this Word document which is on my desktop?

I am working on my Ancestry and today when I tried to view my Word document which awaits me on my desktop, I was told that someone else was using it. There is only me to use it, so there couldn't be anyone else. What can I try to open this document again?

Hi,
If you want to move the document to other library immediately, the following workarounds for your reference:
1.Create an Event Receivers for document library and use SPFile.MoveTo
method to move file to the other document library.

http://www.learningsharepoint.com/2010/07/04/programmatically-copy-and-move-documents-in-sharepoint-2010/
2.Create a workflow using SharePoint designer and use Copy List Item Action to copy file, then delete the current document.

Hello I am having problems viewing areas of a pdf...it's a form fillable pdf that someone else has completed and saved..I'm able to view all but the areas that have been filled in.. any info would help

Hello I am having problems viewing areas of a pdf...it's a form fillable pdf that someone else has completed and saved..I'm able to view all but the areas that have been filled in.. any info would help

Hi Bob, I just tried your suggestion, but the interactive PDF is in spreads by default, no way to change the setting. When I choose to view by single page in Acrobat, it displays a single spread.
When I choose to view by spreads, it displays 4 pages, two spreads. That's the topic of this whole discussion, I believe. I do own CS 6 at home, however my employer supplied me with CS 5.5. And I have very little, if any, influence on purchasing.
So, I have no good way to make an interactive PDF (with differing recto/verso headers and footers), that is accessible and shows the correct header/footer. It's either single pages (with one header/footer), or recto/verso headers/footers but PDF only as a spread, as well as I can tell.
Unless you know something else I can do...
Best, Marilyn

How do I export SELECTED bookmarks to a flashdrive or CD so they can be viewed by someone else on their computer?

What I am trying to do is preserve selected bookmarked websites and their contents including videos (if possible) on a flashdrive or disc so they can be viewed by someone else in the future. All I can do right now is export all the bookmarks to a flashdrive where I only want to put selected ones on the drive. I would also like to know if the website marked drops it video (tv stations do this) does that mean it is lost to the drive as well. Thanks

To address the second part of your question:
Bookmarks are just stored URLs, so if the page changes, or disappears, the bookmark won't help in accessing the lost content. If you want to actually download and save content, that's a more involved process, but might be worthwhile in some cases.

I connected iPad to someone else's windows computer to charge it. Their iTunes came up, and I hit cancel. Now none of my purchased apps work. What can I do?

Okay, then what you will need to do is plug your ipad back into your friends computer; you may have to sync it with his computer, but thats okay. When it is plugged in, click the update button. This will take about an hour, maybe more if your friend has slow internet. Once it is updated, reset your ipad. When your ipad is reset, sign into your apple id. You can now use a feature called icloud (brand new in ios 5) to download all of your apps and music you purchased back to your ipad. You may lose some things if they were not purchased from apple, but is is better than not being able to use it at all (I think).
If you already have ios5, then this is unnecessary (it says you are using an ipad running ios4)

When I try to buy or update an app on my ipad, a window comes up asking me for a password using SOMEONE ELSE'S apple ID which prevents me from buying the app. How can I get my ipad toprompt for a password using my own apple ID, like it does w/ itunes

When I try to buy or update apps, myipad asks me for a password using SOMEONE ELSE'S apple ID, which prevents me from buying/updating apps. But when I am buying songs on itunes, the ipad asks me for my password using MY OWN apple ID and everything works fine. HOW DO I GET MY IPAD TO REQUEST MY PASSWORD USING MY OWN apple ID WHEN I AM BUYING OR UPDATING APPS?

The apps you are trying to update were purchased with (and therfore permanently linked to) someone elses Apple ID. If you do not know the password then you need to delete the app and redownload/purchase it with your Apple ID.

Excel file save error: Someone else is working in file right now. Please try again later.

When trying to save a modified Excel file, which has been opened from a network share, our users are receiving the following message:
Someone else is working in "\\domain.com\users\username\Document.xls" right now. Please try again later.
The clients that have been affected are Windows 7 clients, and the DFS share is being served from a Windows 2012 server. I have already confirmed that DFS replication has not been enabled, so it isn't trying to lock files for replication. I have also disabled
any real-time scanning that is occurring on the client to make sure that the AV software wasn't locking the files. I did notice when viewing the list of Open Files from the server's Computer Management console that when a users experiences this issue the file
appears to be opened 4 times. Three times it shows that it was opened in Read mode and the 4th instance shows an Open Mode of Write. Typically, a file which is working correctly should just show one instance with the Open Mode of Read+Write. None of these
open instances are temporary files preceded with a ~.
Any thoughts?

Hi,
Does the issue occur in other operation system? Which Office version are you using? Have you ever tried to test with word document, PPT file or txt file?
Based on your description, the issue may be caused by the same file open multiple time in computer management on SQL server. The user probably has User Access Control (UAC) enabled on the machine and it is not letting him overwrite the existing
copy of the file because she does not have it open in administrator mode. UAC will block overwriting (saving) the existing file without Administrative privileges and it will automatically open the save as dialog so you can save with a different name and
if you click save without changing the name at the point, it tries to save as a new file over the existing file and it can't because the file is open.
I recommend you check the user's permission (Which showed in Computer Management console) and end the Excel file instance in the task manager of the user's client.
Also, we may try the workaround: Save it to local drive(like drive c:) and then copy it to DFS.
Thanks

downloaded acrobat reader 11 onto my Mac Book Pro, it can open the file but will not print. Get a message that says PDF cannot be printed, however, I forwarded it to someone else and they could print it, no problem. I called HP and spent an 1hour with them and then called Apple support and worked with them for 3 hours. No one can figure it out. Is there something wrong with this version? the pdf was created in 2004. Do I have to pay to get Acrobat?

Let me give you a slightly different perspective than everyone else here. You are using an unsecured wireless network, which means that all your network traffic is easily available for viewing by anyone else using that network. That's bad. Very bad, for you, unless you absolutely trust everyone who lives within range of this network. So stop doing it.
As to the Mac not connecting, wireless networking is simply too complex for any reasonable answer without more information. There are many possible error points, and as often as not it's the Mac that can connect and the Windows PC that cannot. Since you can't give us any information about the configuration of the neighbor's network, and can't make any changes to it, we can't do much to help you troubleshoot it.

Executing spatial queries on someone else's tables

I am trying to execute a spatial
query using a table owned by
someone else.
The SQL is...
select a.plancoupe, a.coupecrop, a.ha
from dba1.coupes a, dba1.coupes b
where b.plancoupe = 'CM004H' and
mdsys.sdo_within_distance(a.geom,b.geom,
'distance=1000 querytype=WINDOW')
= 'TRUE'
The query works fine when I am connected
as dba1, but when I connect as someone
else I get...
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29902: error in executing ODCIIndexStart() routine
ORA-13211: failed to tessellate the window object
ORA-13209: internal error while reading SDO_INDEX_METADATA table
ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD", line 73
ORA-06512: at line 1
I have granted SELECT permissions on the
table in question to PUBLIC and also to
dba1.sdo_geom_metadata and the spatial
index table generated by the spatial
indexing creation routines...
Any ideas?

SImon

Hi Simon,
From your e-mail below, I assume you are
running Oracle 8.1.5.
Here is what you need to do for 8.1.5.
Hope this helps.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks.
Dan
======
In Oracle 8.1.6, your query will work
if you do the following:
1) Grant select on dba1.coupes
2) Grant select on the spatial index
table created on dba1.coupes
In Oracle 8.1.5 ONLY, do steps 3 and 4:
3) In addition to step 1 and 2 above,
grant select on sdo_geom_metadata
4) As the Oracle MDSYS user, you must run
the following:
connect mdsys/mdsys
drop view sdo_index_metadata;
create view sdo_index_metadata as
select SDO_INDEX_OWNER, SDO_INDEX_NAME, SDO_INDEX_TABLE, SDO_INDEX_PRIMARY,
SDO_TSNAME, SDO_COLUMN_NAME,
SDO_LEVEL, SDO_NUMTILES,
SDO_MAXLEVEL, SDO_COMMIT_INTERVAL,
SDO_FIXED_META,
SDO_TABLESPACE,
SDO_INITIAL_EXTENT,
SDO_NEXT_EXTENT,
SDO_PCTINCREASE,
SDO_MIN_EXTENTS,
SDO_MAX_EXTENTS
from SDO_INDEX_METADATA_TABLE
where
(exists
(select table_name from all_tables
where table_name=sdo_index_table and owner=sdo_index_owner)
or
exists
(select view_name from all_views
where view_name=sdo_index_table and owner=sdo_index_owner)
or
exists
(select table_name from all_object_tables
where table_name=sdo_index_table and owner=sdo_index_owner)
grant select on sdo_index_metadata to public;

What version of Premiere Elements is involved? And, what computer operating system?
Strictly from the point of view of removing a version no longer wanted on a computer, Deactivate and then Uninstall which are not the same
a. In an opened project, Help Menu/Deactivate or Help Menu/Sign Out (depends on version)
b. Then uninstalling from the computer the usual Control Panel way (assumes Windows).
Please also refer to
Transfer an Adobe product license
Adobe allows you to use the same purchased activation serial number for a given Premiere Elements version on no more than two of your computers.
And, written here by others, not both at the same time.
