[Q] Installing music manager without Google wallet - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! Each time I want to download the Google music manager, a pop up appears telling me to create a Google Wallet account, but I don't have any Credit Card (less than 18 years). Do anyone here a way to have that manager without having to create a Google wallet account?

storage

hi,just got my n7 and playing about with itjust wanted to know how i go about getting storage on google cloud and how it works basically,cheers
There really isn't a unified "Google Cloud."
Google drive is used for basic file storage and editing. 5GB for free.
Google music will store up to 20,000 songs.
Google+ is used for photo storage.
Basically each service has its own cloud and they can all be accessed by 1 Google account.
Hope that helps!

[Q] 4.2 shared apps?

Is it possible to share apps / games from one account to another.
I created a guest account thinking that they'd be able to play all the games I have installed on my main account.
Perhaps it can and I just can't find the setting?

Go to Play Store, select app and "install" it. Then it appears in guest account
Of course you need to have on both user accounts same google account.

I do not understand your last sentence. My guest account does not have a Google account. I'd like for the guest account to have games though. Can I do this?

You have to actually have a google account on your guest account to have anything from the market in it.
Topic is getting muddied here.
When you add a second user to your Nexus 7, that user has to have a Google account. Can be empty - just make a Google ID.
On the second user, open Google Play. It will show all the apps that user has (none).
In Google Play, click Options, then Add Account.
Add your master Google account - the one that owns your apps. Don't synch anything.
Now your second user can see all of your apps in Google Play.
"Install" all the ones you want your guest to have access to. They don't really download - only a pointer is set up to them.
Now you can delete your account from the second user play store if you like.
As far as your guest user is concerned, it looks like they have their own copy of your apps. They have all their own customization,
high scores, etc. And they can't touch yours.
This is a really good multi-user implementation, regardless of what else you might read on XDA.
Thanks a lot rm200.
Since i upgraded to 4.2 I searched for a way to share my apps with my other account without installing twice and could not find. Even on xda there is a topic where guys comment about having to pay twice for each account. I just wish google would explain better its newest features.

You will have two copies of the apk that way. Not good.

This is possible if you are rooted. The steps are as follows:
1. Using a root explorer (in your main profile), navigate to /data/system/users/##/. ## is probably 10. 0 is your main profile. You may have 20 or even 30 if you have more than two profiles.
2. In the ~/##/ folder there is a file called package-restrictions.xml open this in a text editor.
3. With the file open you will see app package names ex. <pkg name="com.quoord.tapatalkpro.activity" inst="false"/>. <- this is obviously tapatalk. If you want this app to display in your second profile simply delete the line in this file.
4. Save, exit, restart, done.
*NOTE if you restored all of your apps via titanium backup (and i suspect any other back up app) when you modify the package-restrictions.xml and restart you will have to sign in again and ALL apps from your main profile will be available to the second user.

When you say you tried selecting the right account, do you mean on the phone or via PC? I'd try it on your PC if you haven't already.
Yea on the phone....
The installation is not importend in this...I mean just why does this happen??is this normal or some kind of bug....even when i delete all history of previous apps on that account it still shows that account when I want to install the app with my primary account.
can anyone help??

[Q] Google Play Library

The widget for the Google Play Library (magazine, book, etc.) doesn't display anything. Where is it drawing the info from? Do I have to login separately for it to work?
Are you login to your Google account on your device?

Yes, I'm logged into my main Gmail account, receiving mail and can connect to the Play Store no problem. The other Play widgets work find, however the Library one that shows your magazines, books, etc is completely blank.
Or maybe a widget that allows your Google Play Magazines to be displayed like a magazine rack

You can have multiple Google accounts active so just add your old account to your phone. If you don't want contacts, calendar etc, just turn off all the syncs for the old account.

Yeah, because all the apps would be installed on the old account so just add it and untick all of the other sync options.
