You don't need to have them both open to move files.

Yeah, that's where the permissions problem comes in.

There should be a Shared user folder (in harddrive/users) that all users
have access to. You can use that as the intermediary.

I'm sure there's a way to set the permissions, I just don't know it myself.
That's why MS said contact Apple, and why I said moving user accounts would
teach you a lot about your computer--finding out how to set the permissions
to enable this would probably be very educational.
