How can I limit access (within my home group) for only certain user accounts on my 'portable' computer to view certain user accounts on my "desktop pc"?

Hello

I created a homegroup, in which my "Desktop PC" and "Notebook" are members. I have 4 user accounts on my desktop PC and 3 user accounts on my laptop. I wish that only certain user accounts on my laptop and desktop PC in order to access some user accounts on the other machine. I.e. "Sally" account user on my laptop only access account user 'Sally' on my desktop PC and vice versa. Rather than user account 'Sally' on laptop or desktop PC being able to access 'Martin' account on laptop or desktop PC.

In other words, I wish that every Member of the family must be able to connect to my laptop or my desktop PC and access their files that are stored on the desktop originally.

Can you help me?

Thank you.

  • How can I reinstall an anytime upgrade home premium to ultimate. I had to throw my computer and cannot find a way to recharge the upgrade.

    I have a key to upgrade.

    The first thing you need to do is to get your Windows 7 Ultimate Anytime Upgrade key:

    An e-mail containing your product key will be sent to the e-mail address associated with your Windows Live ID account or e-mail address you provided if you ignored the account configuration. Note: If you use an email tool or spam blocker spam filter, be sure that you can receive e-mail messages from microsoft.com.

    What happens if I lose my product key?

    If you lose your product key, you can return to

    www.Windows7.com/GetKey and sign in using the "Sign In" link in the upper right of the page. This will allow to recover your product key if you have established your account with your Windows Live ID. If you do not configure a Windows Live ID account initially there is no record of your online product key. Check your e-mail since it is the only trace of your product key.

    or

    Here are four utilities, which can display your product keys if they are still there:

    -------------------

    The next thing you need to do is to reinstall the base license that you upgraded, Windows 7 Starter Edition or Home Premium.

    If your computer is pre-installed with Windows 7:

    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.

    -Samsung uses ESC on most of its systems

    -HP use F9 on most of its systems

    -Fujitsu uses F12 on most of its systems

    -Acer use F12 on most of its systems, but often you need to go into BIOS to allow

    -Dell uses F12

    In general, look at the screen during the POST for a tip for what is possible.

    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

  • How can I limit the number libraries which is to find Photos

    How can I limit the number libraries which is to find pictures?

    I have about 10 libraries I've migrated opening today.

    I followed the advice I got from leonie, (level 10) below.

    Photos will create a new library of Photos in your iPhoto library.  The new library will be named as the iPhoto, with the extension ".photoslibrary" library and your original library will have a new file name extension ".migratedphotolibrary".  Rename the resulting ".photolibrary", so you will always be able to open in Aperture. The icons of libraries will change also. New photo library will display an icon of 'fan photos' with the flower of the Rainbow.


    So, I have now two files in my folder "Images".   One is called "Photo library" (these are ALL of .photoslibrary) the other is 'BACKUP ONLY iPhoto libraries' (these are ALL of .photolibrary).

    When I hold down the option key and start the Photos is to find all the libraries of two files above. How can I say Photos don't not to look in the old folder "iPhoto library"?

    This isn't a feature of Photos

    The schema includes 2 types of tables. FACTS analytical tables are used to store instances of specific events.

    Add them to a library then go to http://assets.adobe.com and share your library. Use the button to work. Or you can just download it yourself and send them to her.

    You don't have to give your own Adobe ID. Just use other people's electronic mail address. You'll never lose access to the photos. They will always be at your disposal in your history of license to redownload whenever you need.
