    New to mac!

    Love it!

    Anyway cant figure this out as a hardened PC user:

    2 accounts on 1 computer, both set as admin.

    Transferred a load of photos to mac from PC, imported them with iPhoto on one account. Cant access them from the other account, says I dont have sufficient priviledge. How do I change this? Or do i need to move the photos to a shared folder or something?


    Thanks!

    not sure how you'd do this. i mean itunes and iphoto are all separate libraries for different accounts.

    the Public folder is the only one that accessible from all accounts. i've got itunes libraries shared by moving itunes music folder to public folder and changing the location in preferences.

    perhaps you could do this for iphoto. AFAIK as i know you can have multiple itunes/ iphoto libraries and choose which to use when you open the apps.

    you might get you answer on apple.com/support or the discussion boards there.

    have a great time with you mac.
