    Hi all, I finally got a new mbp! All of you have helped my answer a ton of questions and such, so I just wanted to say thanks! I think I will write a review for notebookreview.com to help those who are waiting to purchase a mbp. Meanwhile, I have a few questions of my own:

    I first time I used my mac I was in the administrator account I created. I then created an account for everyday use, but nothing was there from the admin account: microsoft office, the music I ripped into iTunes. How do I get these into my everyday account?

    Thanks in advance, and I'm sure I will have more questions!

    i've never tried this; but my guess is that u go to:

    1) iTunes -> preference -> sharing
    2) then under sharing; tick the "share my library on my local network"
    3) click OK

    no sharing in iTunes is not what you want to do.

    I believe it is just in the user account settings, but i could be wrong.
