Running two accounts simultaneously

[Thing One]

Hey, I'm using a mac obviously and currently have 2 seperate toontown accounts.. one that is mine and one that belongs to another family member. Sometimes I need a toon from the other person's account to help me with my toontasks and it's a pain to have to drag out my macbook to sit beside my imac to run the second account. Is there ANY way possible to run them both side by side? I've heard you could do it on a PC.. but nothing about mac.

I can run 2 screens at same time, (not using spoofer of course). I did it by accident one day, loaded one account while the other was up. 1st, Load one acct up, then close (exit) the log in screen. Then re open log in screen, and proceed to 2nd acct and log in. Sometimes it says error..But I can keep trying and it will open. I use Safari on Mac Mini. GL.

It works!!!! Its actually easier to run two accounts on a mac then on windows. Let's see how slow the computer gets though..

As long as you have enough memory and disk space then it should run very well. I hardly ever experience any lag. have fun!

Does this work on pc?

It never worked on my PC. I had a Dell, it got a virus and crashed. Luckily we got a Mac to replace it. I was very surprised to find that it worked with np.

You can set it up so it works on a PC. I used to run two accounts on my PC but you need to have a little bit of knowledge. There is a huge thread on it if you search it. It involved some manipulation...I wouldn't advice doing it though. It made my computer extremely slow and if you don't do it right you can pretty much ruin your PC.

Running it on a mac doesn't make it lag at all! I have a MB pro and it is going great. Going to go try it on our imac once i get home....

Thanks for the tip penny

Thanks for the information! It works great! Now I don't have to roll back and forth between two computers!

This is what I do, I have both a Mac Laptop and a PC.

Basically, have two shortcuts on your desktop, open one seperatly and then the other. And you have both open and playing, its pretty simple... Once you konw how to do it.
