Won’t seem to let me enter Two separate Apple IDs on one Neo

I have two separate accounts on the Neo but I want to use different AppleIDs but my Neo won’t seem to let me enter the second Apple ID. Any idea why?

Do I have to go that route? I want to have two separate individuals (not family related) to have access to the computer with their own log in and use their own Apple ID for the iCloud etc . Do I just need to go log into ICloud first. Will that fix the issue.


Multiple logins with disparate Apple Accounts should work.


Are you encountering issues with separate logins?


What have you already tried?


You do want (and likely need) FileVault enabled, and likely also want Fast User Switching enabled, and want System Settings > Users & Groups > Automatic Login > Off


The person will then need to log into the newly-created Mac login and add their Apple Account.
