Cannot Turn Off iChat

I cannot turn off iChat on my new MacBook. I have tried turning off the computer, taking out the battery, force quitting the program, deleting the program entirely but I cannot turn it off. The small black triangle is below the iChat symbol in my dock however it isn't turning on either. It just appears as if it is stuck but the rest of the computer is functioning perfectly. Please help me out if you have any knowledge how to turn it off.

try to see in preferences panel if in Account folder there is ichat as program that start up automatically at login, if there is u can cancel it with "-" button.

Please help! I cannot turn off IPOD due to blocking message

Please help, dear Ipod Experts and better Ipod Users,
I cannot turn off the Ipod (when I click to the bottom ) anymore as following message appears:
"FireWire connections are not supported to transfer songs, connect to the USB cable provided"
Even resetting the Ipod the message appears again and again and I dont have the slightest idea what the IPOD is trying to tell me. I have regularly uploaded the songs via Itunes with the USB cable (Nothing else) and I use the official I-Fusion Sonic Impact to hear the songs in loud. Can there be the connection, because I remember that this message started appearing when the IPOD was connected to the I-Fusion.
In order to turn the IPOD I have to leave it on till it turns off due to battery deload...Very sad solution, isnt it?
Thanks so much for answers for a real desperate Ipod Fan

It sounds like you have reached the authorization limit of 5 computers. So if you need to authorize another one, either deauthorize any other computers have authorized in the past that you still have physical access to or use the Deauthorize All option as described in this article.

Cannot turn off passcode after ios8 upgrade - iPad mini

Upgraded iPad mini to ios8 and cannot turn off the passcode. In settings, I can turn it off but it tells me that I need to set a passcode within 60 minutes. It then counts down and requires me to set a passcode once 60 minutes are up. Also does not let me change duration of passcode (from immediately to 4 hours for example). Any thoughts on how to turn it off? Thanks.

is this your iPad or one administered by someone else...for example if I use an iPad from work our IT policy dictates that I must use a passcode and I am not allowed to turn it off.
If it's yours, just a shot in the dark, do you have restrictions enabled? If so, go in and disable them then see if that will allow you to turn off the passcode lock.

Hey ktillis88,
Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, the following resource may be helpful:

You will have to force the iPad into recovery mode and data will be lost unless you have a backup.

TS4006 My passcode requirement was turned off when I updated to iOS 7. It is now requiring my Passcode, but I cannot remember it! And computer won't let me synch because "Find My iPad" app is turned on, which I obviously cannot turn off.

Do I really have to Reset the iPad?

Yes, you will need to restore your iPad. This link will help restore from a lost passcode:

hope you didn't have GREEK keyboard selected
If you did APple do not want to know that their upgrade has trashed your ipad
search on ios 7 ipad greek keyboard
to see other sufferers - if you had a greek keyboard then you need to set it to english/french etc
to do that you need to unlock your ipad
to unlock your ipad you need to re-set your keyboard
to do that you need a greek keboard
to get your greek keyboard back you need to unlock your ipad
and so on and son
thank you apple

I can not quit open or my Yahoo mail and cannot turn off my computer

Wireless 3dTactic Rage - beeping sounds and cannot turn off . . .

For some weird reason i cannot turn off my headset anymore.
It doesn't work.
When i try, it simply looses connection with pc and reconnects. At least i'm guessing that's what's happening.
The USB transmitter is swithching between blinking and fixed light.
I've tried re-pairing it a few times now, that stops the connect/disconnect issue but i still can't turn off the power. . .
Unlike many others who are experiencing problems, i have NOT attempted to install any firmware updates, so i'm at a loss at what is happening here.
Any suggestions?
