Wanted hasslefree Vault storage for 2 computers each with Aperture

I have a G5(10.4.1) and a MacBook Pro(10.5.2) each of which have Aperture 2.1.1 installed. I want to be free to load pictures into either computer and also want to take advantage of Aperture's Vaults. I understand that backing up differing libraries into the one Vault is not advisable.
Is it possible to safely set up one or more libraries on an external hard drive so that they accessed by more than computer and when required these external library(ies) be backed up by a vault(s)?

It would add a LOT more $$$ to the cost of development and support.
Photos properly encoded with the IPTC and Exif data are actually excellent from a metadata perspective. However, any circumstance I can foresee would have to be strict chronological ordering as photos are shot in a linear fashion.
However: Imagine a photo shoot where 2 cameras are at work in hi-speed mode. Identical model cameras creating similarly named (if not identical) files in an almost simultaneous environment. That's fashion photography and the kind of pro market Aperture is aimed at. That's one example that could break the paradigm's back.
I would like to see a tentative step whereby a user can designate a single project as fluid and sync it within a strict chronological, linear uplink. Sort of an auto upload and update feature complete with field edits, deletions (optional), etc. We're on the verge of Wi-fi enabled cameras as an integral function anyway.
Given this, It would be nice to see Aperture have a one way migration tool that takes ALL Folders / >Projects / Etc and moves them in one hit back to the main library (ONE WAY Transfer). If the same >name existed at the same level in the Main Library then Suffix with a 2 etc.
Absolutely. Vaults already are a one-way self-contained copy.

Is it possible to access a single Lightroom catalogue mounted on a shared drive from multiple computers, each with an individual Lightroom install?

No, Lightroom catalogs cannot be on a networked (shared) drive, and they do not support simultaneous multi-user access

Can't select projects for iPhone to sync with Aperture

I'm migrating from iPhoto to Aperture 3.3.1
I'm on a 2009 Mac Mini using Lion.
I can easily import iPhone photos into Aperture, no problem.
I've managed to get iTunes to allow selecting sync between my iphone 4S (latest OS5) and Aperture. All well and good. But...
What I don't seem to be able to do is select anything of substance to sync. For one thing, the only items available for sync are "Events"--for example "last 20 events" and macros like that. Since Aperture doesn't deal with "events" but rather "projects", I don't know how this translates.
I have a lot of projects in Aperture, but unlike when I was syncing with iPhoto--where I could select from a long list of specific items I'd created in iPhoto, I don't see any option in iTunes to sync custom named Projects, Albums, or any such thing from Aperture. Only these simple macros for recent events. And even when I select something like "the 20 most recent events" and try to sync, nothing is synced. Nothing gets transferred when I do a sync. No photos get transferred to the iPhone.
How do I get all of my projects to appear in iTunes as options to sync with my iPhone?

I see, we have been cross posting
What exactly are your settings in the "Previews" tab of the Aperture preferences? Have you enabled the sharing and the automatic creation of previews?
If you are not sure, if previews have been generated for all your projects, force the creation by selecting all images and selecting "Photos > Update Previews".
Since iPhoto and Aperture now share the same library, I don't understand why selecting Aperture as the sync source would be any different than selecting iPhoto in this regard.
Do I understand you correctly - You have only one library right now, that you alternately open in Aperture and iPhoto?
Then only one of the two Applications will show the contents: Aperture or iPhoto. The results I have show you above in my previous post do apply, when I have two libraries, one used with iPhoto and one used with Aperture. The same library openened in turns with iPhoto or Aperture will only show all contents for one of the two apps; I assume this is to keep the photo cache inside the library small - otherwise you would have to waste space for two photos caches.
When I try to sync my Aperture library with iTunes, I see all projects like shown above with the switch set to Aperture, but set to iPhoto I also see only the two events you have shown. So use the application to sync your photos that will show all albums or events/projects.

I would like to pay for apple tv rentals with a different credit card from my iTunes Store. How can I do that?

I would like to pay for apple tv rentals with a different credit card from my iTunes Store. How can I do this?

Any purchases made from the iTunes Store, on your computer, AppleTV, or iOS device, use the same billing information that is associated with your account. To pay with a different credit card, log in to your account and change the payment options associated with your account. If you want to use different payment options on different devices, you may want to consider utilizing multiple iTunes accounts, each with its own payment options.
To learn more about changing your iTunes account information, see this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1918

For multiple computers (3) three, do we need to pay $29. for each machine?

For multiple computers, 3 (Three) to be precise, do we need to pay $29.00 for each computer you want to upgrade to the new operating system X-LION?

As Linc points out you do not need to purchase a separate copy for each computer.
In order to update all three follow these steps:
All of your computers must be running OS X 10.6.7 (better is 10.6.8)
Pay for the update and download it and install it on one computer.
On each of the other computers, go to the Mac App store and sign in to it using the same account that you used to purchase the upgrade to the first computer.
In the App store, at the top of the page look for the Purchased icon and click it.
You will see a list of apps you have purchased including Lion. Select Lion and look for the INSTALL button to the right of it. Click that button.
Let it install Lion on the other computers.
Enjoy.
Hope this gets you where you need to go.

I have had my iMac in storage for the past 3 years. Now I want to get on my computer but can't but am unable to. I'm very frustrated as to what to do. Please help.

I have had my iMac in storage for the past three years. Now that I finally have it unpacked I want to get on it but am unable to due to the fact I can not remember my username and password for this computer. It runs OS 10.4 Tiger. Nowhere have I been able to find where i wrote this info down. Need help.

Get the Mac to set up an additional administrative account. You can then change the password on your old account.
Start with your computer power off. Hold down command-s. Power on your computer.
Type in the following:
The first two commands will depend on your release of Mac OS X. Look at what is typed out in the console to determine the exact format.
# Type the follow two instructions to access the startup disk in read/write. Press return after each command.
# in case of partial success repeat this command until errors go away.
/sbin/fsck -fy
/sbin/mount -uw /
cd /var/db
pwd
#List all files. The l is a lower case L.
ls -a
#The move command acts as a rename command in this format.
mv -i .applesetupdone .applesetupdone.old
# reboot your mac
shutdown -r now
Once you've done that the computer reboots and it's like the first time you used the machine. Your old accounts are all safe. From there you just change all other account passwords in the account preferences!!

You will need to scroll down to see this post. Search for applesetupdone
This method is mentioned in an apple support page without giving an explanation.
Once you have a new administrative account, you can change the password of your old administrative account

I just bought 3 memberships for adobe creative cloud with the same ID, how can I install each membership in 3 different computers.

I just bought 3 memberships for adobe creative cloud with the same ID, how can I install each membership in 3 different computers.

Welcome to Adobe Forum,
You have CC for individual purchased which can be activated on two machines by the same Adobe ID.
How ever if you want to use it on more than two machine, you can cancel this order & buy the creative cloud for Team, in which you can buy the number of seats & assign them to as many user you would like to.
Each user can activate it two times with 100GB of space as compared to 20 GB space for CC for individual.

HT4847 Can I buy extra storage for each Apple device by having more than one Apple ID?

Hi All!
I have multiple Apple devices and would like to have separate storage for each device, Ipad, Iphone, and Ipod. Is this possible? Can I have more than one Apple ID?

Not if you want them to share the same iCloud account so they sync the same data between all your devices. To share the same account, they have to all be set up with the same iCloud ID, and will share the same 5GB of free storage (but you can always purchase more).
If you want them to be on separate iCloud accounts, you can set up a different iCloud account on each device using as separate Apple ID for iCloud on each. (You can have more than one Apple ID). If you do this, they will each have their own, separate iCloud account with 5GB of free storage, but will not sync iCloud data between them.

I am trying to import songs to my new macbook pro from my old computer using home sharing. Both computers say that home sharing is now on but neither show up in each other's library menu. I am logged on with the same apple id for both computers.

I am trying to import songs to my new macbook pro from my old computer using home sharing. Both computers say that home sharing is now on but neither show up in each other's library menu. I am logged on with the same apple id for both computers. and both are on a stable wireless connection

Logging into itunes store on each machine wth different Apple IDs is OK Autorising each others machines with the other Apple ID is OK. This is completley separate from Home Sharing
For Home Sharing to work you need to
File > Home Sharing > Create Home Share.
You need to select one of the two Apple IDs you are using and ENTER THIS ON BOTH MACHINES WHEN CREATING THE HOME SHARE.
Home sharing will then work

I recently purchased icloud storage for my iPad Air. I want to store photos in the cloud and learn how to retrieve them. I need help.

I recently purchased iCloud storage for my iPad Air so that I can store my photos in the cloud. I don't know how to do this. I want to be able to retrieve them as well.

Hello Janet
With that iCloud storage that you purchased, is used for mainly for iCloud Backup for your iPad Air, app data as in games and documents for like iWork and other apps that save data locally within the app. Dealing with photos in your Photo Stream they actually do not count towards that storage plan. If you don’t think that the storage is going to work for you, then cancel the upgrade you just made.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
No. Apple only offers 5 GB of free iCloud storage for all your devices, no matter how many you have got. If you need more iCloud storage, purchase storage.

I have an I-phone and a I-Pad. Do I get 5G of Icloud storage for each device since they are registered in my account?

RE: Icloud gtorage
Am I allowed 5g of storage for each of my devices I-phone 5 and I-pad?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
No, you get 5 GB per account.

It sounds like it still has her information on it, so it might be efficient to navigate to Settings, then General, then Reset, then Erase All Content and Settings. You can then set up the phone again, using your information. This way the phone will be yours, officially, and her data and information will be removed.
