Cannot log out of the forums...

About some of the new problems in these forums, Jochem wrote in another thread (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2399480#2399480)
I figured out what is going on. As soon as you log in your profile settings are partially reset. At the very least your "Last Name" is set to "Hide", not sure which other profile settings are reset when you log in.
As for me one of the main problems is that I was given a new identity, I decided to give this a try. Therefore, I used the "Sign out" button of the top row, logged in again using my normal ID and password, and found that apparently there had been no change in the forums. The only apparent change was that I am now welcomed as "Claudio González" in the rop row, but I am still logged in as "Claudio_González" in here:
As reported in other threads, the information in my new profile is wrong, and I don't know if, once these new problems get solved -if they ever do- the data such as posts count of this new identity will be merged in my old, normal identity. Which is still there...

After posting my previous message, I entered the main page of this forum using Safari 4.0.4 / Vista, and this is what I got:
(Sorry, I am receiving an error messge saying that I the contents of this image is not allowed. It's a plain JPG screenshot well below the maximum sizes).
What I see: No name by the Welcome of the top row, no Sign Out message, welcome in the forums as Claudio_González.
And I haven't logged in in any of the cases I have reported since last night, so it's not me who has been choosing identities.
Last minute additions (in Explorer/Vista now):
1. I am randomly getting hard returns I haven't typed.
2. I cannot change the font of this message to Verdana.

  • Any way to stop being logged out of the forums every 10 minutes?

    Since the recent alteration of the forum, I keep getting logged out. Is there any way to increase the time or keep me logged in at all?

    ben...........
    Not in Safari, The timeout length is ±30 minutes. I found that it is particularly annoying when composing a post, as it will not Post when logged out in the middle of composition.
    I use Firefox and a FF add-on called "Reload Every" - applied to a tab or window, I set it to 'Custom' 20 minutes. You must apply it every time you start FF (from the 'context' menu (ctrl+click). Note that the Tab or window needs to remain open at all times (could hide it in the Dock) for it to work. I haven't been logged out since adding it to FF
    The very good reason for the login timeout is that some people use their devices in very public places - school, work, coffee shop, etc. - and may walk away from it (particularly a desktop) for a period   Because AppleID is used in the iStore(s), being logged in may become a security risk,
    NOTE: There is also a time limit to be able to Edit your post. That seems to be ±15 minutes

  • How do I log out of the Forum

    I'm subscribed to a bunch of forums but when I go to my main account's forum profile, it lists a diff. email address than the one the emails are going to, and says I'm not subscribed to any forums.
    So before posting that screen shot (as you guys recommend in the tech note) I'd like to log out of my main account (this one) and log in with what I think might be my "forum subscription account", but I've been searching for 20 minutes and can't find a log out button. Not even a "you're not anne-marie?" link.
    Where is the log out button/link?
    AM

    YES! Thank you thank you.
    And as I suspected, I had subscribed to a bunch of forums under my lists account, so I was able to unsubscribe.
    But during this process I think I FOUND the secret Log Out link, it's at the top of the sidebar when you're looking at the "home page" of Adobe Forums (with the logos of the programs). Just click the left-most breadcrumb above, "Adobe Forums," under your user name, to get to that page, and there you'll see the Log Out link.
    Gracias Claudio!

    I just bought this ipad and cannot log out from icloud because i dont have the password.how can i log out from icloud?need help

    You need to return it to the seller and get your money back.  You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
    If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so.

  • Cannot Log Out or Shut Down

    After extended sleep mode, I cannot log out and computer will not shut down.
    The first symptom of a problem that I noticed was that after waking from an extended sleep (i.e. overnight), the screen saver no longer worked and would not auto-start. I thought this was a problem with the screen saver and called Apple support. During the troubleshooting process, I was instructed to shut down the computer, but could not do so. I was forced to hold power button to force shut down. We ran disk utility and repair permission in an attempt to correct the screen saver issue. After rebooting the screen saver worked, but this issue remained a watch item.
    The next day, after the computer awakened from auto sleep mode (overnight), same problem. Screen saver failed to start, I could not start it from the assigned hot corner, and I could not log out or shut down. When selecting log out or shut down, error messages would appear to the effect "log out timed out because Mail would not quit." The Mail program was not active in the dock, and when I tried to Force Quit, it would not display in the list of programs to force quit. I also noticed that Time Machine could not find the external drive. I had to hold down power button and reboot to resume normal operation.
    I cannot resolve these problems.
    Here is my configuration: Mac Mini G4 1.5GHz with 1GB memory. Upgraded from Tiger to Leopard. I have an Admin account & parental controlled account. Power save is set to sleep automatically after 1 hour, and screen saver is set to auto-start after 5 minutes. Computer wakes daily at 5:30 am. I have set a password for screen saver. Time Machine is set to "On" to backup to 250GB LaCie Firewire external hard drive. No content barrier software installed. I have removed all programs from Startup folder.
    I plan to call Apple support again, but in the meantime, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi there EEP1 - I have had the same problem with my Mac Mini for years and cannot solve it either. When my Mac comes awake from sleep Mail usually looks for new mail and hangs indefinitely. I try and quit or force quit and this will stay in the dock. I'm not sure whether Mail is the problem or not, but it seems to take out actions associated with file control in the Finder [saving, quitting, shutting down, force quitting etc.]. It's really frustrating and I'm sure it's not healthy to force restart each time it does this.
    Did you manage to call Apple again? Or find any other soloutions? It's a tricky search term to define when looking for advice from forums!
    Many thanks, Ben

  • I want to sign out of current apple id and into another one but I no longer have access to my current email address so I cannot log out

    I want to sign out of current apple id and into another one that I own but I no longer have access to my current email address so I cannot log out (It is with an internet provider who I have just unsubscribed with)  This is on an iPhone 5S, on iOS 8.1.

    That email address is still a valid Apple ID. If you do not remember the passcode, sign onto Manage your Apple ID (Apple - My Apple ID) with that email address, and then click on Reset Password. You will be asked to answer your Security Questions in order to reset the password. If you do not remember the answers to your Security Questions, contact Apple Support to reset them for you:

  • How do i log out off the app store as it has the wrong email and I can't do my updates as i don't know the password

    How do i log out off the app store as it has the wrong email and I can't do my updates as i don't know the password

    Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, tap on the Apple ID, and choose 'Sign Out'.
    However, logging out of the iTunes & App Store won't change the Apple ID you need to use to update an app.  It only affects what Apple ID you're using to download a new app.
    Apps always have to be updated using the Apple ID that was used to download it originally.  Go to iforgot.apple.com to reset that password.  If you cannot do so, then contact Apple Account Security, or delete the app and redownload it using an Apple ID and Password that you know.

  • I can't stay logged in in the forum

    Recently I am always logged out when I close my browser. (Chrome).
    It doesn't ask my password so I assume the cookie was successfully written but nevertheless when I close the browser I have to sign in again next time I use the forum.
    In the past I was automatically logged in but that is no more the case.
    What could have caused this?

    I logged-on to the forum last night, yet with a fresh browser just now I found I had to try to log in.  I say "try", because the login process never finished - it just sat there and spun.  So I closed that IE browser window and opened another one, clicked the "Sign In" link again, then it went briefly to the login screen, then here, where I could post.
    As far as I can tell, nothing's improved.
    This web site development stuff has apparently become nearly impossible to do (even the US Government can't manage it).
    As a 37 year software engineering veteran I find this situation apalling!  Adobe people, you need to take a hard look at what's going on here!  Your company has been able to maintain a state of the art package (e.g., Photoshop) for over 20 years.  Maybe you should ask the folks over in the Photoshop team what things they go through to make sure they can keep engineering that complex product without it coming down in flames.

  • Cannot log on to the internet with password and us...

    Since I have had my computer repaired due to virus, I cannot log-on to the internet using my username and password to get upgrades and apps etc.....Any ideas on how to rectify the problem.

    HI,
    I belive you mean here to acces Ovi Account.
    There has been some amount of thread for this issue in forum.
    This problem has to do with expired certificates that you have on your computer. We are working to get the problem fixed for the next release.
    To remove the problematic certificates, do the following:
    On your computer, open Control Panel and click Internet Options.
    In the Internet Properties window, select the Content tab, and click Certificates.
    In the Certificates window, select the Trusted Root Certification Authorities tab.
    To sort the certificates, click the Expiration Date column header.
    Select any GTE CyberTrust certificates that have their expiration date in the past. You should be left with one GTE CyberTrust certificate that is valid.
    Click Remove and, when asked for confirmation, click Yes.
    After the expired certificates have been removed, please restart Nokia Ovi Suite and try signing into your Nokia account again.
    I hope this helps.

  • Cannot log out of  iChat / Bonjour

    Hi -- this is a rather strange problem: I use iChat to chat with other people through Bonjour. I have a status icon in my menu bar. I noticed recently that I was unable to sign out of Bonjour. I would disconnect through iChat and quit the application, but the status icon in the menu/status bar would still show all my nearby bonjour buddies and wouldn't let me sign off. This was a problem because people would IM me when I didn't want them to, and the only way to prevent it was to turn off my internet connection.
    Foolishly, in an effort to eliminate this distraction for the time being I deleted iChat thinking that I could download it again for free from the apple website. Now I still am visible by bonjour buddies but when they try to chat me I get an error message saying that iChat needs my attention. I cannot log off through the status bar and I can still see other bonjour buddies.
    1. Is there any way I can reinstall iChat free of charge?
    2. How do I "log off" of bonjour chat?

    Hi,
    Welcome to the    Discussions
    1) http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1486891
    Do the Easy Way and the COMBO Update listed nearer the bottom.
    2) Go to the iChat Menu > Accounts and Log Off the Bonjour entry.
    B) Go to the iChat Menu > Preferences > Accounts and Disable the Bonjour one.

  • Cannot log out of BT Openzone

    I recently purchased a BT openzone package of 4000 minutes over 30 days which has been working fine.
    However when I logged in today, it connected fine but now when I click to log out I get this message: 
    Server error
    The website encountered an error while retrieving https://www.btopenzone.com:8443/home?CPURL=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.btopenzone.com%2F. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly.
    Here are some suggestions:Reload this web page later.
    HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfil the request.
    and so now I cannot log out! I have to go to work in a minute and so I am worried that it will keep counting down my minutes although I want to log out! Any suggestions?

    While not excusing avoidable shortcomings, I reckon that paying separately for any wifi service is not a good idea unless you can regularly access a hotspot that you know is reliable. Hotspots are notoriously flaky (especially BT Fon, relying as it does on hub owners playing ball), and I regard the service included with BT Broadband as a handy extra rather than a must-have.
    A mobile dongle is far more dependable, as is tethering a computer to a smartphone or setting up a phone as a wifi hotspot.

  • Azure Portal login problem: "You have signed out elsewhere. Click OK to log out from the management portal."

    I can login to the management portal, but when it starts populating the services, the page goes grayscale and I get the message "You
    have signed out elsewhere. Click OK to log out from the management portal." with only an OK button.  This is the same issue that others were having on Feb. 27th referenced in
    this thread.  Currently, this is only happening in my Chrome browser, but works in IE.

    Hi,
    From the thread that you provided, we can see that this issue was fixed, up to now I haven't heard the same issue, based on your description, this issue was only happening in Chrome, I tested this on my local (create a new website in chrome), it worked as
    normal, and I didn't reproduce this issue, so I think this may be not a bug in chrome, please try to clean session and cookie, or use another machine test it, if issue was still exist, please try to contact with support with detail information, Please
    contact support team by creating a support ticket at
    http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/support/contact/ Or if that doesn't work because you don't have an active subscription you will need to contact general customer support to have them create a support ticket for you
