Kurzweil 3000 for Macintosh Installation and Administration Guide 13
Using a Single Copy of Kurzweil 3000 with
Multiple Users
This section explains the use of Kurzweil 3000 with multiple users. If you use
Kurzweil 3000 in a single-user setting, that is, Kurzweil 3000 is installed on a
computer and is only used by one person, you can skip this section.
In many instances, a single copy of Kurzweil 3000 is used by more than one
user (i.e., at different times). If you will be using Kurzweil 3000 with multiple
users, it is important to understand the following issues:
• Document organization: where documents are stored.
• Individual user preferences: reading speed, font and font size for text
documents, toolbars, etc.
• Document security: who can access individual user’s documents.
Kurzweil 3000 provides two methods for administering multiple users:
Method 1 — Using Macintosh user accounts. (Default)
Using this method, users log in to the computer with a user name and
password.
Kurzweil 3000 keeps track of each user’s preferences, from session to
session, based on the Macintosh login information.
With this method, each user’s documents are secure and are not accessible
to other users. However, to ensure document security, users must remember
to log in and log out of the computer, so that one person’s documents are not
confused with another person’s documents.
Method 2 — Using Kurzweil 3000 multiple user accounts.
Using this method, users access Kurzweil 3000 via a Kurzweil 3000-specific
window, using only a user name.
Kurzweil 3000 keeps track of each user’s Kurzweil 3000 preferences, from
session to session, based on the user name.
