Is there a software out there that will allow two mouse pointers (cursors) on my Mac? Note that I don't just want to connect two mice, I want two pointers, each controlled by a mouse. This is the Mac version of this question.

    If there's only one pointing device connected, how are you planning on controlling the second pointer? Sep 6, 2011 at 17:58

    How are you going to control the second pointer without another mouse? This is NOT the equivalent of that question at all.

  • btw, mouse pointer and cursor are different things. Cursor is normally used to refer to the caret (text insertion point) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caret

  • @Steven I know, I was trying to make it less confusing. Should I take that out?

Vine Server, for one, lets you set up a VNC server on a single user basis; you can then fast-switch to another user locally, and allow the original user to connect via VNC to their active desktop.

  • Very good answer. However, it still requires having two computers. The whole point is to have two people on one, single computer :)
