How can I create a new admin user and transfer my old files?

Hello

I want to create a new account administrator user on my imac and transfer all my old files.

Why? I have problems with adobe lightroom. I can't move the files from one folder to another; After a chat session of three hours with support from adobe, they discovered is not the lightroom catalog that causes the problem, the preferences file, nor permissions user/disc; so it's probably a problem with the user account is corrupted. They tried with a new test account and everything worked fine. So they suggested, I create a new user account and transfer my files.

I read on this forum that move all the files from one user account to another, means you also move the files at the root of the problem. So before you do anything: what are the thoughts of the community here on the suggestion of the adobe support the people, and if this is the right way to go, how should I go about this?

System: imac 2.7 Ghz intel Core i5, 16 Gb 1600 Mhz DDR3, Mavericks 10.9.5, Lightroom 6.4

THX in advance

Robin

Open the preferences users and groups. Click on the padlock icon in the lower left corner. Enter your administrator password when prompted. Click on the [+] add at the bottom of the list of current users to create a new account. You can set the account to an admin account by selecting the new account administrator: drop-down menu. Set up as a result. However, you can't use the same user name, in order to transfer your data presents a problem with permissions. See the following article: transfer of files from one user to another account. Once you get set up in the new account, you can delete the old.

You shouldn't have a problem to transfer files of key records in your file. Just do not transfer anything from the folder/Home/Library/because that's probably where the shoe pinches.

    (1) define the Instance in your own way!
    If you simply create a startup nomount with her, and then - in theory - and pfile file you have a conduct of the proceeding (this method is used for example for restoring a backup rman)

    (2) you can't. The database files are related to a certain instance. What you can do is to recreate an instance with a different name for example, by using the scripts generated by an "alter database backup controlfile to trace;" command

    What I want to do is create a style library, which are basically photos of different Woods.

    There are two approaches you can try.

    Clipping paths

    1. draw the shape of the part as a closed path.

    2 position the wood grain image above or below the shape where you want it positioned.

    3. cut

    4. Select the closed path.

    5. glue on the inside.

    See: Using FreeHand MX > content > work with objects > working with clipping paths

    Fillings in mosaic

    1. use the autotrace to vectorize the image of wood fiber, using many colors.

    2. the group the paths (but not the picture) and create a tiled fill,

    3 make a style of a filled object tile

    4. apply the style to other objects.

  • How can I create a new all-white or all-black layer without changing the current foreground color or background?

    I need to create a filled layer of black or white.  I need to do WITHOUT changing the current foreground or background colors. So I can't use the bucket tool. The reason is that I have created these layers inside Action and the need the current colors remain unchanged.

    Here's the easiest way I found to date:

    1. Layer-> new fill layer-> solid color...  Select one of the choices other than 'None '.  In the color picker dialog box, place the code hex #fff and click OK
    2. Layer-> rasterize-> content fill
    3. Layer-> Layer Mask-> remove

    Can someone suggest a simpler method?

    You can simply create a new empty layer and then go to Edit > fill and choose either black or white

  • How can I create a new presentation of shop e-commerce in British Colombia? The default layout is inadmissible and who do not steal! :)

    Hello to everyone.

    I've been building and development using BC for awhile but avoids the functions of e-commerce like the plague, because of all my knowledge and trial a mistake, I couldn't adjust available outside the columns of the table how much I can add. I'm looking to create some sensitive stores but feel completely constrained by the store layout because it can't be adjusted. Yes I tried the same and adjustment module style sheet styles declare my rules with "!" important"with no luck. I then asked the team to BC online chat. If it was still possible, and they said 'no' dish. Then I saw 'light at the end of a tunnel' If you want by browsing a few Business Catalyst models (I honestly can't bring myself to use models that I like a lot of this building and landscaping my own pages). With this model here, the cameras and accessories you can see the shop features sensitive so I know it's possible (Damn you BCGurus and your mad skills). I also found some amazing layouts by Enough of Pollution , which has also made a few sensitive shop like this Web sitelayouts.

    Overall, how can I achieve this? How can I create a fully customized store page layout and virtually any custom also available? I have the feeling that I needed to learn the programming language for this liquid, but seriously, the indications at this point would be greatly appreciated! If I learn liquid programming, I'd love to learn where there might be some amazing courses / tutorials / documentation. I have the feeling, it comes down to create my own model of liquid layout and rerouting of the off-set modules in the new model... I'm on the right track?

    Sorry, so many questions. Let me tackle that I really want to know haha!

    • What would be the necessary steps?
    • If I need to build models of liquids, where can I learn all this? (I know that the BC user guide has much butI will not lie, it's a little overwhelming)

    Hello

    Support will be have not said you that it was not possible, they would have told that it is outside the scope of their support. Is this possible? Of course, it's, it's the foundations of basic BC, HTML and CSS more then anything else.

    Honestly, it has nothing to do with incredible skill, amazing code or anything else.

    First of all, BC is just tags and you should use reference material:
    The developer reference

    Here you see the overall plan and tags. If you look at the list of product tags you see that you can set in a list schema (no tables).

    From there allows you to encode your small layout, large presentation cart layout, provision of registration (payment) because you need to and code the CSS to adapt.

    -You can float elements so float the li of the store

    -The basics of the CSS to make the elements of fluid width of code etc.

    -Questions from the media CSS code to make sensitive matters

    All pretty much toast front-end html, css, nothing special here development stuff. You have classes on the points for each element of a line in British Colombia according to the parameters that you set on the tags and so on.

    If you want to take the next step you enable liquid markup in the characteristics of BC and take things further.

    To create a new user profile

    To create a new profile, you must first create a new user account. When the account is created, a profile will also be created.

    1. Open a user account by clicking on the button start , by clicking on the Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.

    2. Click on manage another account. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    3. Click on create a new account.

    4. Type the name you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click on create an account.

    To copy files to the new user profile

    After creating the profile, you can copy the files from the existing profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

    1. Log on as a user other than the new user that you created or the user that you want to copy the files.

    2. Open Documents by clicking on the button start , and then clicking Documents.

    3. Click on the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.

      If you don't see the Tools menu, press ALT.

    4. Click the view tab, click hidden files and folders, clear the Hide protected operating system files check box, and then click OK.

    5. Find the C:\Users\Old_Username folder, where C is the drive that Windows is installed, and where ancien_nom_utilisateur represents the name of the profile you want to copy the files to.

    6. Select all the files and folders in this folder, except the following files:

      • Ntuser.dat

      • Ntuser.dat.log

      • Ntuser.ini

    7. Click the Edit menu and then click on copy.

      If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

    8. Look for the C:\Users\New_Username folder, where C represents the drive Windows is installed, and New_Username is the name of the new user profile you created.

    9. Click the Edit menu and then click on paste.

      If you don't see the Edit menu, press ALT.

    10. Sign out and then sign back in as a new user.

      If you have messages in e-mail, such as Windows Mail, you must import your e-mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile. If everything is working properly, you can delete the old profile.
