How Do I Sign Out Of iMessage on My MacBook Pro?

I have a MacBook Pro and my dad has an iPhone. We are both connceted to the same iMessage account therefore he gets my iMessages. I made a new iTunes acount. Could anyone please tell me how to sign out of my dad's account and sign into mine... on the MacBook Pro that doesn't have iMessage in the settings. I'm not sure which update it is.
It would mean a lot, THANK YOU.

This worked for me:
1. Open up Messages (make it the active window)
2. Hit command-comma (for the preferences)
3. Navigate to the accounts tab, and select the account you want to log out.
4. Hit the button that says Sign Out, or if you're not on the latest update of OSX, hit the big central button with account details on it.
5. Hit the Sign Out button, then quit the program.
Hope this helps!
the guy above said this and it worked for me!

Hey iloveindie,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you wish to sign out of iMessage on your iMac. The following resource outlines how to do so:
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538
3. Sign out of your Apple ID at these locations on your Mac:
Messages > Preferences > Accounts tab. Click iMessage in the left column, then click Sign Out.
FaceTime > Preferences. Select your Apple ID, then click Sign Out.
Thanks,
Matt M.

How can i log out of mail?

Is there really no way to log out of Mail on a Macbook Pro? I can quit Mail but when I click to icon I'm straight back into my inbox. This means that unless I want everyone in the house to potentially be able to see my emails, I have to logout of my laptop every time I go out? This is crazy. How can I even plan a secret birthday present for my partner if my inbox is on display when he walks past the computer?

I didn't mean to sound rude. I do get that if I sign in i see my mail, and if someone else signs in their see their mail. But the logic is that once you've instigated Mail on your macbook, you are compelled for ever more to sign OUT of your account each time you leave the laptop, if you want you want your email to be private. Until now, I have never signed in or out of my user account - we just all browse using the same account (and log in and out of our own facebook and bank accounts etc) because there is nothing private associated with the account. But now, I've launched the Mail app and everyone has to fiddle around signing in and out each time. It's not that I have anything very secret but I'd still like to know the email exchanges I have with friends are private.
What I'm doing now - this for the benefit of those who come after who have made the same error - is create a new user account for myself and I'm transferring all files and preferences across. And then I just won't use the other account again.
So that is all a bit insane.

How do I log out of my Apple ID on my mac I want to use a different one

Help! I need to log out on my Mac so I can use my other ID on it, everytime I recieve messages or facetime calls on my phone it comes through on my mac and I hate it!

You don't "log out of your Apple ID" - that's like saying "how do I log out of my username".
The Apple ID is used to sign in to many different places, each of which would take its own logout. Examples:
iTunes Store
iCloud
Game Center
iMessage
Apple Store

I created a new Apple ID for iCloud on my iPhone, but I can't seem to find a way to "sign out" or "log out" of that Apple ID (for iCloud) to sign in with another Apple ID. The only account login I could change was the Store. How do I "log out"

How do I "log out" or "sign out" of iCloud on my iPhone? There is an option to delete the account, but I just want to log off. I want to keep the account name for future use.

It looks like the article below has the information you are looking for.
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
Turn off iCloud completely
Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
Note: If you delete your iCloud account, iCloud will no longer back up your iOS data. You can still back up your device in iTunes (for more information, open iTunes and choose iTunes > Help).
On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
If your Mac has OS X v10.7.5 and you turn off iCloud, your calendar information and reminders aren’t stored locally in iCal. If you want to retain your calendar and reminder information, you need to back it up before turning off iCloud. For more information, see the Apple Support article iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from Calendar and Reminders or iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar.
On your Windows computer, open the iCloud Control Panel, then click Sign Out.
Note: If you turned on automatic download of music, app, or book purchases (in iTunes preferences or in Settings on your iOS device), your iTunes purchases are still downloaded to your devices.
Set up iCloud on your devices

I have 2 iphones, one for personal and one for business. I need my phones not to sync otherwise they will both ring all the time. How can I log out of my icloud and unsync my phones?

I have 2 iphones, one for personal and one for business. I need my phones not to sync otherwise they will both ring all the time. How can I log out of my icloud and unsync my phones?

Syncing your phones to the same iCloud account won't cause them to both ring all the time, it only puts the same contacts, calendars, and other synced data on the phone. The phones will only ring with someone calls the number associated with the phone.
If you want to stop using iCloud on one or both of the phones, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then choose Keep On My iPhone when prompted. This will disconnect them from iCloud and keep a copy of the synced data on the phone.

In mail app, you can remove the account and add theirs in settings>Mail, Calendars,Contacts.

The ipad is not designed for multi-user use however so it is not easy.

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.
