Can you have multiple users working off the same Mac pro at the same time with multiple monitors but doing different things?

I'm buying desktops for a start up company and was wondering if I could purchase a single Mac Pro and run multiple monitors to allow multiple users to work on the computer at the same time. These users would be doing different tasks but I would hope to accomplish that on a single desktop. I know that screen sharing is possible but with only one user controlling both of the screens. Thanks in advance, sorry for my apple ignorance!

A lot of companies are buying or leasing laptops to be used at the office by day, and carried home at night.
Some companies are doing "Bring your own device". Bring a device to receive email -- computer/smartphone/tablet you already have, or have an allowance to buy one for your use.
If Capital is short (and when is it not) leasing computers, to be turned in a few years, can be a huge savings because the cost is expensed as incurred. The alternative is laying out cash today, but not being able to expense the cost this year. Instead, the computer expense must be recovered over their useful life (often five years) through depreciation.

    Does the new mac pro support the Apple cinema display

    There is no 2007 23" Cinema Display
    There is a 2002 23" display that has the Apple ADC connector
    http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/09/AppleDisplayConnector.jpg
    There is also the 2004 23" display with a DVI connector.
    For the latter you just need a mini display port to DVI connector that plugs into the Thunderbolt port
    For the former you need that connector plu an DVI to ADC connector

  • HT5035 Can you have an iTunes gift card and a credit card on the same iTunes account?

    I still have money left on my iTunes gift card, but not enough for a purchase. So I was wondering if I add a credit card to my account, when I make a purchase will it use the rest of the money from my gift card and then charge from my credit card, or would it merely cancel out the gift card and replace it with my credit card?

    Yes, it will, unless you make a purchase which can't be done with a gift card, in which case the balance will remain and the entire purchase be charged to the credit card.

  • Help!  I transferred the data from my old Macbook pro with some success, but now my new Macbook Air contents think they are the remote disc and that the old Mac Pro is the hard drive.  What did I do and how do I fix it?

    I transferred the data from my old 2006 MacBook Pro 17".  Thanks for the help on that.  I thought that I was doing it right.  Used a backup hard drive and time machine.  Problem:  Now my new macbook air thinks it is the old machine and that the remote disc is the mb air.  Clicks want to take things to mobile me instead of iCloud, old applications launch instead of the new ones.  How do I fix the mess I have made?  Like I said before,  I am a software user and don't really know what I am doing when I start into the guts of the software, but I am able to learn.  Thanks for any help.

  • How can I back up a MacBook Air on a Mac Pro Hard Drive using Time Machine?

    Want to back up a MacBook Air on a Mac Pro with a spare hard drive. Sharing allows Time Machine to find the hard drive, but get a drive busy message when time machine tries to back up onto the drive.
    Any suggestions?

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes) in the String Matching text field. You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard." Note the timestamp of the last such message that corresponds to a failed backup. Now
    CLEAR THE WORD "Starting" FROM THE TEXT FIELD
    so that all messages are showning, and scroll back in the log to the time you noted. Select the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
    If all you see are messages that contain the word "Starting," you didn't clear the text field.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don't post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Some personal information, such as the names of your files, may be included — anonymize before posting.

  • It is possible to connect the new Mac Pro at the Eizo  Color Edge CG 243 W

    Hello,
    it is possible to connect at the new Ma Pro an Screen Eizo Color Edge CG 243W, or is this model to old for the new computer?

    The display has DisplayPort, so all you neded is a Mini Displayport to DisplayPort cable to connect it to a Thunderbolt port on the Mac Pro.
    <http://www.startech.com/Cables/Audio-Video/DisplayPort/6-ft-Mini-DisplayPort-to- DisplayPort-Adapter-Cable-Male-to-Male~MDP2DPMM6>
    It also has DVI, so you could connect it to the Mac Pro's HDMI port with a HDMI to DVI cable.

  • How can you have 2 users on an iPad?

    I have an iPad that needs to be shared with another person in my office. How can I sign out and let her sign in so that each time our own personal apps and emails show up? Is this even possible?

    You can't. iDevices are single-user devices. The other person in the office needs to have her own device.

  • Can a genuine Apple European cord for the new Mac Pro and the Thunderbolt display be ordered from Apple?

    The title says it all. When I move to Europe I know I can use adapter plugs, but I would feel more secure, considering the cost of my Apple equipment, using Apple European power cords.
    So, is it possible to order these parts from Apple?

    The computer-end will be a fairly standard IEC-13 plug:

  • Can RAM for the previous Mac Pros be used in the new revisions?

    I ordered a Mac Pro last month along with 2 4GB RAM kits from Crucial (see details below)
    4GB kit (2GBx2), 240-pin DIMM, DDR2 PC2-5300 memory module
    Module Size: 4GB kit (2GBx2)
    Package: 240-pin DIMM
    Feature: DDR2 PC2-5300
    Specs: DDR2 PC2-5300 • CL=5 • Fully Buffered • ECC • DDR2-667 • 1.8V • 256Meg x 72
    The RAM has arrived but the Mac Pro is yet to ship and today I received an email from Apple I can:
    1. Keep your original Mac Pro order at the same price.
    2. Cancel this order and place an order for the new Mac Pro.
    The RAM kits cost me £360 already so i hope i can use use the sticks in the new machine. Anyone know the answer to this? Before I decide what to do.
    Thanks...

    Crucial should be understanding, one of the best in customer support - and satisfaction. And most likely to have worked with Apple to have chips.
