Can I set up different users??

[Turbo92]

Hi there, I just got my first Mac and I love it!! On my old Dell PC my wife and I had different user "sides" of the computer. On my side I was able to do all my emailing, internet searching with all my favorites etc. This was completely separate from my wife's side, where she had all her emailing, and internet favorites. So far I can not figure out if there is a way to do that on this computer and the only drawback I see so far. We don't do this for security, we don't have it password protected. It just makes things easier for us.

So I ask all of you for help.....is there a way?

Thanks

System Preferences-->Accounts then click on the +

Set up as many as you want.

Ric, Thank you for the help. Next question, is there a way to add an icon on the desk top to click on to change users? Do I really need to system preferences and then accounts each time??

Hello,
You can give the "fast user switching" feature a shot.
