I have a bootcamped Mac, and I want to share my SteamApps folder between the two operating systems, since the bulk of the storage is in game assets.

Steam Library Sharing Mac And Cheese
Choose what you want to share, invite your family members to join, and enjoy each other’s digital company.
Get organized.
One adult in your household — the organizer — chooses the features your family will share and invites up to five family members to join. Your family can share Apple Books and App Store purchases, an Apple Music family subscription, a single iCloud storage plan, and more. Once family members join, Family Sharing is set up on everyone’s devices automatically.
Now you can share a 200GB or 2TB iCloud storage plan with your entire family, giving everyone enough space to store photos, videos, and files without having to purchase separate plans. Family members won’t have access to each other’s files, but it’s easy to see how much storage everyone is using. If you need more space, you can upgrade to a larger plan at any time.
All your family’s purchases on all your family’s devices.
When you set up purchase sharing, the songs, albums, movies, TV shows, books, and apps purchased by family members are immediately available to everyone else in the group. New content appears in the Purchased tab in Apple Books or the App Store for each family member. Just select the family member whose collection you’d like to browse, then download or play the content you choose. Other family members can access your collection in the same way. If you want to keep some purchases private, you can choose to hide individual items.
When your family sets up purchase sharing, all new Apple Books and App Store purchases will be billed to the organizer’s account. But the organizer can still call the shots. Just turn on Ask to Buy for children in the family. When a child initiates a purchase, an alert is sent to the organizer, who can review the download and approve or decline it right from the organizer’s device. This applies to both purchases and free downloads.
With an Apple Music family plan, your family can enjoy unlimited access to Apple Music on their devices.1 Everyone gets full access to the Apple Music library, with over 60 million songs. And each family member gets a private account with a personal music library and expert recommendations. Start your free three-month trial2 and enjoy a whole world of music for the whole family.
Screen Time can give you a better understanding of how much time your kids spend using apps, visiting websites, and on their devices overall. When you use Screen Time with Family Sharing, you can review your kids’ activity reports and set time limits for specific apps right from your own device. You can also name another family member as a parent/guardian, so that you’re always on the same page when it comes to your kids and their screen time.
Mac java ld_library_path. Aug 15, 2008 You can always use LDLIBRARYPATH (or DYLDLIBRARYPATH on the Mac) to force the runtime linker to locate the right dynamic libraries - but that's cheating, and should only be used as a hack of last resort. Better to construct the binaries correctly so that they can locate their dependencies without the need to alter the user's environment.
Keep track of where everybody is.
With Family Sharing, you can start sharing your location with the rest of the family automatically. If youʼre running late to a restaurant or need to know if your kid made it to band practice, just use Find My or the Messages app to keep tabs on each other. If you need privacy, you can temporarily stop sharing your location by turning off Share My Location in iCloud settings.
Find everybody’s devices.
Finding your familyʼs lost devices is easier when everyone can help. With Family Sharing and Find My, any family member can help locate another memberʼs missing device. Their devices appear in a single list in the Find My app. So it’s easier than ever to track down a misplaced or stolen iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, or AirPods.
Kids under 13 can have their own Apple IDs.3 As a parent or legal guardian, the organizer creates the child’s Apple ID and adds the child to the family group. Ask to Buy is turned on by default, and the organizer can also limit the content kids have access to on their devices through Content and Privacy Restrictions in Screen Time.
