Question

Multiple User profiles, same person sharing

I am a student at two institutioins. To keep these worlds logical and sortable for myself, I have each data on a different user ID on my MBPro. I would prefer to keep my work separate as much as possible to prevent accidents and confusion. Is something like a User ID possible in PShop, considering I'm the same student?

If you mean two user accounts for the same CC account on the same MBP, I see no problem. That's still one license per machine. Just like any program installed for all users on your MBP, each account keeps separate user data and separate user configurations for that one program. You simply switch users.

 

I hope that clearly answers your question.

Are you saying that I won't have all of my pictures accessible via PShop, just the ones that the logged-in MBP user has uploaded (that's what I'm looking to enable)? If not, can I configure deparate user IDs for Pshop?

Currently, no matter which User is logged in, when I open PShop, I can see all of my other profiles' pictures. 

Mac profile 1: uploaded pics to PShop

Mac profile 2: can see those pics in PShop

 

I don't want to see these pics and/or the "recent" list of the other Mac profiles. Are we saying the same thing? How do I get my PShop to stop displaying the pics another profile was working on?


However, that upload was done a year ago, before I had different profiles. Should I delete and start fresh from specific profiles to keep them distinct?
