How do I log out of one account on iChat and into another?

I want to log out of AIM on ichat and into Skype, how do I do it?

Hi,
In iChat 3, 4 and 5  you can have multiple accounts set up in iChat > Preferences > Accounts.
In iChat 3 it will display one AIM type Name (@mac.com  MobileMe or AIM Name) and one Jabber type plus the Bonjour Account if enabled (total of three Buddy Lists) as a Max.
iChat 4 and 5 can sign in (Log in) to as many accounts as you want to, be they ones that log in to the AIM service or ones that use Jabber.
Logging out can be done several ways.
1) iChat > Preferences > Accounts
Select  the Account and then Deselect the "Use this Account" option.
2) In the iChat menu again > Accounts
Select any Ticked account and it will log out and remove the tick (Selecting it again toggle it "On" (logged in)
3) Click to highlight, bring to the Front any Buddy list
Click and hold the Status Message
Select Off Line
4) If you have enabled the Menu Bar iCon in the iChat > Preferences  > General section then you can also use the Menu Bar icon menu once the Buddy list is  the front window.
IF you want to use Skype and IChat at the same time this is possible (you just can't do a Video chat on both at the same time)
You can Quit any app from it's named Menu (i.e the iChat Menu > Quit)
Or Click and hold the DOCK Icon for the App and select Quit.
You cannot use iChat to connect to Skype.

  • Hi ! I got an iPhone 5 from someone who I don't know the real owner. Then I wanna change iCloud on it, but I don't know the password of owner. How can I log out that iCloud account without password ? Please help me, thank you

    Thank you, please help me !

    How can I log out that iCloud account without password ?
    You can't.
    Return the phone to whoever you bought it from and get a refund. Without the previous owners password you will not be able to enter your own iCloud acount, and when you update the phone, you won't be able to re-activate it as it will be locked to the previous owners account.
    You should've checked the phone was not locked to someone else's iCloud account BEFORE buying it.

  • How do I log out of itunes on my computer and sign into a different account?

    How do I log out of iTunes and sign into a different account? My mom just gave me her computer, and I need to upload my own itunes account on the mac and delete her account.

    To log her out try going to the iTunes Store, click on the account name in the upper right corner, and then click "Sign Out".  Next, you'll need to sign in by clicking on the same button in the upper right and then enter  your account information. Once you're logged in I think you should be able to sync your music files or download your past purchases from the store to update your computer.

  • How do I log out of guest account?

    Today I logged in to the guest account for the first time. When it is logged in to the guest I am unable to click anything to try to get out of guest account. The cursor moves but I cannot click or tap anything.  I also started the computer in safe boot and it shows my user id and the guest icons but I am unable to click on anything.  When I start the computer in regular mode it goes straight to the guest accoubt without giving me the option to log into my user id.  Please help me! Thank you!

    If you're tapping to click, physically click the trackpad button. Tap-to-click is off by default.

  • HT5500 how can you log out of your account. i don't like that the facebook app automatically logs me in even after i log out.

    i want to enter my password every time i get into facebook

    You can still access facebook outside of the integration. I do it all the time. You just have to do it differently. I choose to access facebook via safari so I can upload photos, comment on posts, etc.
    THere are also third party apps that can be used to access facebook with a bit more control than the integration.
    The facebook and twitter integration assumes that you want to be logged in all the time, every time and post anything and everything to their services.
    The only way you can really control what you put on facebook or twitter is to not use the integration and use apps or a browser.
    For your situation, try using safari and then tell it to not remember your passworld. That should force you to log in each time. If it won't remember that then use Safari and log out each time so you always have to log in.

  • HT5622 how do I log out of one icloud account to use my other one my iphone?

    Does anyone know how to logout of an icloud account on an iphone4. I accidently created 2 accounts and the wrong one is logged in on my phone. Thanks~

    To change the iCloud account on your phone you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone (if using iOS 7), then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.

  • How do I log out of store account?

    I went to check my history. Now I want to sign out so others don't have access to my account, but I can't find that option...

    Here's the thing - I accessed my history by going to Account and signing, then selected order history. My account name never showed up. I follow the same steps and I can still access my history.
    When I long onto community discussions, my account name and log off option appears. So, get that concept. Any thoughts on how I can make that happen for my account history? Thanks! :-)

  • How can I log out of one apple ID on my iphone and log back into another apple ID that I have, there are older apps that are not updating because of this I think.

    There are four apps that say they are "installing but nothing ever happens...any clue what to do? I believe that it is because I have two apple ID's.
    Thanks.
    Walter

    Check the apps in question to be sure they don't say "paused"; if they do, tap them and select stop.  Then try again.  If they don't, I'm not sure what the problem is.  FYI, one my older apps also took quite a while to finally update earlier today...just waited it out and it finally did.

  • How to auto populate data from one list in SharePoint 2007 into another list based on a key value?

    Hi,
    As a part of new requirement in my project I am supposd to work on SharePoint 2007. I have one List (BCExtract - Main list) with all data related to an Application (like ID, name, app manager RTO etc).
    I have created another list which has form to be filled by a user (with details about his/her applications). My requirement is that when the user enters AIT ID then the page should refresh (probably after hitting enter) and other details like Application
    name, RTO etc which is present in another list gets auto populated depending on the AIT ID (unique column) entered so reduce the burden on the user.
    Please suggest me how this can be done. I do not have permission for obtaining SharePoint Designer and I do not know JQuery. Infopath is ok but if this can be done through SharePoint 2007 alone then it would be great.
    Thanks....

    Hello,
    You can either use jquery/jaavscript or infopath form to achieve this. There is no default way to do this.
    I would suggest jquery because you can put script in newform/editfor.aspx page using content editor webpart. Refer this link for jquery:
    To get value from list:

    http://www.robertkuzma.com/2010/08/read-list-items-using-sharepoint-web-services-and-jquery/
    To set value in column:

    http://spservices.codeplex.com/discussions/468729
    If you use infopath form, then you need to create two data connection to get data from both lists. Later you can set value in fields based on selection using rule. This can be possible without code.
    Hope it could help

    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.

    Hello tobij2n7,
    It sounds like you would like to log out of iCloud account on one of your iPhones.  You can do this by deleting the iCloud account from your device:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    If you no longer have access to the iPhone you would like to log out of, you can remove the iPhone from your account on iCloud.com.  It is important to note that this will erase the iPhone.  Follow the steps in the section titled “Remove an iOS device you no longer have” in the following article:
