Why do I need Library at root level AND a library in the admin user folder?

I have three user accounts in my macbook, I share it with two brothers. I'm the "administrator". Under my user account there is a library folder, same as with the other two users. But I also have a library folder at the root level when I open the "Macintosh HD" icon on the desktop. I notice that both the library at my user folder and the one in the root folder have items that have been updated recently.
While I noticed that the individual user libraries are "normal" in size, the one at the root level is 11 GB.
Why do I need the library at the root level? Can I consolidate that with the Library in my user folder?
Thanks!

Why do I need the library at the root level?
For items which apply to all user accounts.
Can I consolidate that with the Library in my user folder?
No.

  • HT201250 If time machine backups hourly.  Why does it need to backup daily, weekly and monthly

    If time machine backups hourly.  Then why does it need to backup daily, seekly, and monthly?

    It doesn't.
    What it does is discard intermediate backups at the end of 24 hrs and keep just three spaced backups from the previous day.
    At the end of the next day, that day's will be reduced to 3, and the previous 3 trimmed to one; the last backup of that day.
    Daily backups are kept for a month, then trimmed to the last backup of the week.
    The weekly backups are kept until the disc runs out of space and TM starts deleting the oldest ones.

  • Why do we need more than one retained earnings accounts & what is the use?

    Hi FI Experts,
    Why do we need more than one retained earnings accounts, what is the precise use of two?
    I know the retained earnings account is used to carry forward the balances during the year end to the balance sheet and there by making the p&L A/cs balances as zero.
    I guess the second one is used for different valueations for example  as depreciation accounts for different valuations will have different retained earnings accounts.
    Kindly correct me if I am wrong and eloborate on the use having more than one retained earnings accounts.
    with regards
    Ramesh Y

    Hi,
    Well, separate retained earnings accounts are used for parallel financial reporting, it means when you need to report in accordance with, for example, local GAAP and IFRS or US GAAP at the same time. Several retained earnings accounts  are necessary when the company chooses account based approach for parallel reporting. (GL accounts are broken down into several groups, for example you use different accounts for IFRS valuation, for local GAAP and they are also shared accounts common for both principles.)

  • Why do we need to define RFC destination and user for material replication

    Dear Experts,
    why do we need to define RFC destination and user for material replication? Here we use crm middleware only for material replication. Could you please help me to understand it?
    regards,
    Ranjan

    Hello,
    As far as I know, you can use the same RFC destination already available in ECC to SRM to replicate materials.
    You can refer to note 720819.

  • Why do we need separate t.codes KB11N and KB41N for reposting costs & rev?

    Hi,
    Why do we need separate t.codes KB11N and KB41N for reposting costs and revenues? I noticed that i can still use one t.code KB11N to post both costs and revenues, hence why do we need a separate t.code KB41N for revenues?

    Hi,
    The BAPI for costs allows more options than the one for revenues. For example, via BAPI_ACC_PRIMARY_COSTS_POST  you can select sender Network, what you cannot do via BAPI_ACC_REVENUES_POST. The same is for 'cost object' as a receiver; you can do it only via BAPI for costs. In other aspects, the BAPI for costs could be used to repost revenues as well.

    I'm having trouble formatting a book I'm writing using Pages. I need to put my name and book title in the upper left hand corner of EACH page- opposite the page number. How do I do this?

    And if this is the new IOS Pages v2 (or the older IOS Pages 1.7.2), you click the wrench icon and then Document Setup. Tap the document header to edit it, and apply the same instructions that I gave previously for OS X Pages v5.
    The process for Pages ’09 v4.3 is slightly different. You click the Header, and enter your document title and your name as previously described. You will need Menu > View > Show Ruler. Click once in the ruler at the first or second mark after the 7 inch (roughly 18cm). This will set a tab. Now position the insertion mark behind your title and tab once to the mark you set. Now you can Menu > Insert > Auto Page Numbers ...

    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

    The DVD should look like this
    Caution - Leopard does not support classic mode. So, if you currently open OS 9 apps in classic mode, you won't be able to do this if you upgrade to Leopard.

  • What is the best antivirus software for a Macbook Pro...I recently received a message from Google that someone made an attempt to hack into my mail account so I needed to change my PW and verify myself as the user.  The message suggested that I run a scan

    What is the best antivirus software for a Macbook Pro...I recently received a message from Google that someone made an attempt to hack into my mail account and I needed to change my PW and verify myself as the user.  The message suggested that I run a virus scan to check for sny malware or other types of viruses.  I do not have any software for this and up until now have not had a problem....any help is appreciated.  I would like a simple but effective solution!

    It's worth noting that if your Gmail has been hacked, it would likely have nothing to do with your MacBook.  Hacking web based email is fairly common and it doesn't require any access to your machine whatsoever.  In the same way that you can simply go to the Gmail webpage through any browser, any hacker can use the same method.  It doesn't mean your machine has been compromised in any way (and it has likely not been).  I have never received an email from Google of this nature.  I have received notifications when someone has attempted to create an account with my name in which they basically say that there is no action required if you're the rightful owner.

    Thank you for your help, but I believe my questions remains unanswered -- mainly, because my English isn't the good. 
    Here's what I am asking:
    1.  I need something that is animated that blinks or flashes to alert the viewer to scroll down the page.  I would put the wording:  Scroll Down for more (and then an arrow blinks or gently moves up and down to alert the user to move down).
    2.  is there a way that the entire homepage on it's own moves downward?
    Sorry for my poor English.

  • Why does Firefox need to control my mic and my camera?

    To install Firefox on my phone I must first accept these permissions.
    Hardware Control:
    Record audio:- Allow application to access the audio record path.
    Take pictures and video. Allow application to take pictures and video with the camera. This allows the application AT ANY TIME TO COLLECT IMAGES THE CAMERA IS SEEING.
    I have stopped using Facebook Apps and many Google products because they what this sort of contol and basically I don't trust them.
    Why do so many apps need such spying power? and where can I download an old version of Firefox.android that pre dates this control freaky version? After all it used to work just fine without.
    Thanks
    Jonpon

    making permissions optional and controllable for the users is something that would have to be implemented on the OS level. if you have a device with android 4.3 or above it might already work through this hack: www.androidpolice.com/2013/07/25/app-ops-android-4-3s-hidden-app-permission-manager-control-permissions-for-individual-apps/

  • TCP Programming / Why do not need to worry about Big and little Endian?

    Please help, I do not understand this concept please explain.
    The architecture of a CPU is either little-endian or big-endian; some modern CPU's allow a choice via software.
    The TCP/IP protocol standard specifies that all the bytes that make up an item must be sent in "network order", which happends to be big-endian. Intel Pentium CPU's are little-endian.
    This implies that on an Intel machine the TCP software will have to chop an int into bytes and then reverse the bytes before transmitting them.
    Why does the JAVA TCP software does not need to perform the reversal?
    Thanks,
    Alex

    But why would I need to use the DataOutputStream,You don't have to.
    But that's what the Java API provides for sending java primitives over a stream. You wouldn't have to use that. You could chop the int into bytes yourself, and send the bytes, and your Java code still wouldn't have to worry about the endiannes of it, because the VMs handle that.
    DataOutputStream just does the chopping and reassembling for you, so it's easier than doing it yoursefl.
