"Apple is researching means of improving multi-user support for its iPad tablets. Responding to a developer query, the Cupertino-based firm described the matter as a &amp;quot;known issue&amp;quot; and said that its engineers are looking into solutions.   &amp;quot;After further investigation it has been determined that this is a known issue, which is currently being investigated by engineering,&amp;quot; read the official response from Apple Developer Connection&amp;#039;s Worldwide Developer Relations. Apple previously toyed with multi-user functionality prior to the release of the first generation iPad.
