Mac OS X Tiger
The Accounts Preference Pane
Parental Controls
The multiuser capabilities provided by its UNIX-based foundation make Mac OS X
the ultimate desktop operating system for the family. Each family member can have
a secure home directory in which to store personal data such as documents, email,
contacts, customized settings, and applications. Fast User Switching makes it simple,
nonintrusive, and quick to switch between accounts on the computer, so everyone
can easily share the same computer. Tiger enhances the rich family feature set of
Mac OS X with broader parental controls, allowing you to oversee your children’s
email use, chatting, and web browsing.
Mail. Create a list of email addresses that your child is allowed to receive email from or
send email to. If your child tries to send email to someone not on the list or if someone
not on the list tries to send email to your child, Mail forwards the message to an email
address of your choice, and you can decide how the message should be handled.
Finder and System. Specify, among other things, which applications your child can use.
iChat. Limit your child’s buddy list to the buddies you approve of. You can also block
messages from anyone not on the buddy list.
Safari. Set up a limited set of bookmarks for sites that your child can visit.
Dictionary. Filter out vulgar, derogatory, and offensive words from the Dictionary.
The Mac OS X Tiger Family Pack includes a
software license designed for families. You
can install Tiger on up to five computers for
just $199.
Designed for multiple users
Mac OS X is a multiuser operating system, a
characteristic inherited from its UNIX-based
foundation. Fast User Switching makes it
more convenient than ever to have separate
accounts for members of a household, class-
room, or office.
