Multiple user on one Nexus?

[keycard198]

Example: I have facebook and gmail loaded on my Nexus 7----my son wants to play Angry Birds.  Is there a way to have multiple user log in (Like a MAC) so that my son can log into Nexus on his own account (Not being able to touch my gmail or Facebook account).

Thanks in advance..

? I haven't received my N7 yet, but reading the owner's manual indicates you can set up separate accounts in Android 4.1.

Hmm..Owner's manual? There was a little quick start booklet---I called google's tech support and the guy said that there is no way to do it right now. I'm sure that he doesn't want to talk about rooting it first..

You can find a PDF of the Owner's Manual. I don't remember what I searched but I found it pretty easily, I think I just searched Nexus 7 Owner's Manual and it came up. It's pretty thorough, I think it's about 97 pages long.

It's in the Google Play store in Books.  Here's the page I saw about multiple accounts.

I don't think this is quite what the OP is looking for. This is referring to functionality for accessing multiple email accounts at once, but not necessarily having multiple user profiles on a single device. At least, that's my reading of the OP and the shown page.

You can have multiple users on the Nexus 7, with each user having a separate desktop, email accounts, data, and apps. You would have to be rooted and use Switchme Root Profile Manager from the Play Store. Look for a step by step guide for rooting shortly.
