Can't log off?!?

Got a big problem, I was using Ukelele to make a new keyboard and as you know, you have to log off for the changes to take place. Well, I tried logging off, and all it did was go to a blue screen, then to my desktop, then back to the blue screen almost immediately. What to do?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Contact the authors of Ukelele to find out the file tree of what they've installed, and remove it. Sounds like it hasn't been tested with 10.6.6 or something else you have installed.

You can't. But the buyer more than likely restored it because he/she could not use your Apple ID.

I logged onto my email on a public computer. Now I can't log off. Please help!

What exactly do you mean with 'I can't log off'?
Typically you wouldn't use Thunderbird on a public computer.

Can't log-off from Leopard, stuck at log-off screen

I installed Leopard on a stock Mac mini 1.5GHz and it seemed to work just fine, all(most) my apps ran just fine, I was able to get the latest update and restart.
Then I decided to Log-off and it just gives me the blue screen and the spinning circle forever (seems stuck there)...
I can hit the power button to put it to sleep and wake up, but it's still stuck at this blue screen.
Is there any way to get it to shutdown and reboot via some key combo (force quit key combo dont work in this condition) or ssh in?
I'd rather not have to do the hard reboot (holding down power button in the back until it shuts down)...
Or is this my only choice?

If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
I looked up here and solved the problem by changing my apple ID back to the previous one, log off, then changed back to the new ID.

How can i log off itunes from other computers???

Can't log off iMac

When I log off or Shut down the computer will restart. This happen about 5 times, before it actually shuts down. I do I stop this? I make sure all program-Apps are closed.

Hello Reinold.
What type of account is this (POP, IMAP, .Mac)?
Does your wife have any third-party Mail plugins? Does she have either a /Library/Mail/Bundles or a ~/Library/Mail/Bundles folder in the Finder?
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items. What do you see there?
In Mail, open Window > Activity Viewer. What do you see there when Mail refuses to quit? Actually, you may be able to avoid having to force quit Mail by canceling whatever it's doing (by clicking on the red stop icon of the activity).
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

Contact your carrier and the police. If it was lost in a specific building, ask the people running it.

Can't log off/restart, and other related issues.

I wrote the following with a lot of detail, intending to give it straight to Apple... but I don't think they have an option for that. Let me know if I'm wrong. Also, excuse my numbering scheme - it was trimming out my spaces and I wanted to preserve the layout somehow. =[
This all starts with my MacBook having been on for is that, when I open my MacBook and it comes back from sleep, I see the usual black screen. It brings up the unlock dialog, but that disappears almost instantly. Neither moving the cursor nor pressing keys brings it back. However, sleeping the laptop again and then reopening it shows the dialog normally. However, after then, I've noticed the following other symptoms after that point (until restart):
1) Gmail Notifier (in the menu bar) stops updating, even when "Check now" is clicked manually. Restarting the program doesn't fix this.
2) Screensaver doesn't come on automatically or with hot corner, only when "test" is pressed in the screensaver preference.
3) Not closing applications before logging out or shutting down produces an error (after a delay of a couple minutes) about the OS not being able to close the applications. However, they all appear to be closed (no white dot, right clicking on them doesn't show "Not Responding"). At that point, opening the programs and closing them manually seems to prevent the error message for that program. Then, ... (see next item)
4) Even if all applications are closed manually beforehand, it doesn't shut down or log off. A few observations:
a) Everything but the dock goes disappears.
b) Dashboard/expose/desktop hot keys and keyboard shortcuts still work.
c) Clicking a dock item brings the menu bar back, but doesn't reactivate Finder (or show the desktop icons, consequently).

I'm having this exact same problem, except I don't use GMail Notifier. The being unable to log out, shut down, or restart issue I've had intermittently in the past; the broken screensaver is new.

Can I log off from a distance?

I left my tablet at a friends house and my Skype account is still logged on. What can I do about that? Would it help if i changed my password or can I log out from a distance or something?

Hello and welcome to the Skype Community.
If you know your username and password you can log in from any device anywhere.

I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

I can't log off from icloud after changing apple ID

Hi,
I recently changed my apple ID; and bummer, I forgot to log off icloud before doing so.
now I managed to log off icloud on my iphone (for somehow it just let me do so); but my ipad mini wouldn't let me log out/delete the previous icloud.
It constantly asks for password to close 'find my ipad'; which i typed both the old and new passwords, yet it wouldn't let me log off. Tired to find the password (just in case I forgot?); email doesn't come and security question is stuck at my DOB which should be the same. STUCK STUCK, very frustrating.
Both devices use ios 8.1
Any ideas? Much appreciated!

How can I log off the old apple ID and on to the new apple ID in Settings icloud?

I have an old apple ID that is currently signed into my new iphone5s under settings>icloud.
My new apple ID is signed in elsewhere on the phone.
I cannot sign out or delete the old apple ID account because I do not know the password.
I cannot reset the password because i do not know the email where the password is being sent.
I cannot reset the password via security questions because it is telling me the date of birth I am entering is incorrect.
I have no idea what to do now.
Please advise.

f you still have access to your old email address, go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https//appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. You can now go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your correct iCloud ID and password.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to have them reset the password so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You can either go to https://expresslane.apple.com, select "More Products and Services", then "Apple ID", then on the next page select "Other Apple ID Topics", then "Lost or forgotten Apple ID password" and click "Continue"; or you can contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

Save your open documents in other applications, and then use the Activity Monitor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to force quit the loginwindow process.

How can I find the horizontal tool bar so I can log off?

I have no tool bar across the top of my window so how can I log off????

If you are referring to the menu bar, by default on Firefox 4 it is hidden and replaced by the Firefox button. If you want the old style menu bar, right-click on a toolbar then click on "Menu Bar" to permanently display it. Alternatively pressing Alt or F110 will temporarily display the menu bar, you can in the View menu select toolbars, and then Menu Bar.
