Can anyone please advise me how to set up multiple users, with multiple devices while only sharing one iMac, thanks.

My partner and I both have iPhones and iPads but share an iMac, as our contacts and calendars go through iCloud, both gets merged when it comes into iCal and contacts. Do we have to set up separate accounts on the iMac to handle this correctly? Thanks

iPad, iOS 5.1.1

Thanks for the link, it answered part of my question but not all. Anyway I've managed to solve my query re iCal and contacts by setting up a new user account, exporting from one account and importing from another and allowing the new account shared admin access to all folders on the original account. Hopefully, moving forward iCloud should keep everything synced.
