So... I'm new to Mac and not very tech savvy. Have 2 user accounts, both admin. Partner downloaded a game to his account. I wanted to play it from my account and can't figure out how to do it. I've tried dragging the game icon to public, but it won't open from my site. Says it's an alias. So I figured it needed files so tried to go to the download folder in partners account but can't access it. (Little red line no permission) Tried dropping the download folder into public, but access is still denied from my account. I could just download the game again but I want to know how to do this. Can it be done? Can 2 users share a game on a Mac? Driving me nuts. I could do it on Explorer!! :) Thanks to anyone who can help.
