Hello,

I'm operating a home based business right now from a desktop computer and I wondered what people thought of creating a specific User Account just for business use. I eventually intend to get a laptop and I'd like to be able to sync the two together. I'm also using Contactizer Pro right now and it seems to work very well, but I've read it can only sync one calendar.

Right now I am using the 2 accounts and other than getting to my iTunes, I've had no problems but there may be some unforseen things I'm not aware of as yet.

Thoughts and advice is appreciated, thank you

Creating 2 specific accounts for your use in an attempt to separate "business" from "personal" will lead to unnecessary difficulty, IMO. It truly will be extra work to move files and other things between the two, if you should ever intend to do that.

I really advise you just use a single account.

Have you looked at one of the virtual desktop solutions out there now? There are at least two free options.

How would a virtal desktop help?


CatOne, I'm starting to agree with you. Invariably, there is something i need or want on my main account that i have to flip over, put in the shared folder, flip back and access. I'm also not sure its worth it to move my iTunes folder to shared so i can access it from the Business account.

I could probably use Smart Folders and labels to keep all my Business stuff together.
