I have a problem with shut down and log out
They seemed to be doubled on my list all of a sudden. And also i have this dark black box around places i can select or type in never had that before either. Is it a virus?
Hi Stacey,
when you have this in OSX, then have a look at the Universal Access Preferences in the System Preferences.
Make sure that these are turned off.

What's the difference between shut down and log out?
Hi,
I have a MacBook Air and will sell it.
I like to take out my name but don't know how.
What will happen if I Log Out (my name comes after that)?
What's the difference between Shut down and Log out?
Help please,
ThanksWelcome to the Apple Support Communities
The shut down turns off the Mac and a log out closes your user and take your computer to the log in screen. To sell the Mac, you have to reinstall Mac OS X erasing the disk. Open > About this Mac and copy Version -
I have recently installed Mavericks on my desk top and since then I have been unable to switch off my computer without crashing it. I work with two screen and now I seem to have the menu bar on the second screen as well which I did not have before. Can you please help me?
Dr Bettina, I had similar problems with Mavericks. I installed it on a Mini and a 13" MacBook Pro. I can't speak to your disdplay issues, but I can confirm the inability to logout, shut down, or restarft without a forced, power button shut down. I can also report frequent System Prefs freezes and finder issues, like folder contents taking half a minuite or more to render, or not appearing at all. And while a few Adobe CC apps actually ran faster, InDesign ran like molasses uphill in Decemner.
I tried uninstalling or disabling numerous 3rd party apps and pref panes. I unplugged everything but the keyboard, ran DiskWarrier, repaired permissions, did fsck -f, trashed various preference files, reinstalled the OS... You name it, and I tried it — short of a potion using eye of newt.
After two days of totally hosed productivity, I restored OS 10.8.5 on the Mini so I could actually get some work done. However, I've decided to leave Mavericks on the MBP as a sort of crash dummy, and will install and thoroughly test all updates until stability has been achieved. Then — and only then — will I upgrade the Mini to Mavericks, even if it means waiting 'til a .2 or even .3 update.
Good luck to you... -
Problems with shutting down and firmware on HP Designjet 110 plus
Hi all, I have managed to install my HP Designjet 110 onto my MAC (OSX 10.9.5) using a later driver for another Designjet model. However I am having two weird problems! 1. If the paper misfeeds it quite often shuts the printer down for a a few minutes or longer, eventually it just comes back to life itself but it is as if it is getting no power? I have checked error codes and am getting mostly 79.04 codes and some 83.01 and 86.01 and 33.01 which doesn't seem to exist? 2. I tried to install a firware update as it is using S.05.02 but refuses to do it through the HP utility even after re-installing? I am being driven insane!!
This forum is focused on consumer level products. For the Designjet you may have better results posting in the HP Designjet forum here.

Problem deleting photos and cannot shut down or log out
I have managed to put a whole lot of photos on my desk top which I want to transfer to the trash can (over 5000). When I moved them to trash an error message "Item ....jpg is used by Mac OSX and cannot be opened" and you have to press OK. This is happening for every photo. It won't let me shut down or log out. I don't want to have to press OK 5000 times. Can anyone help?

I have a problem with the calendar and notifications, every time I dismiss or snooze locks up and hangs, just reboot goes.
Have you run Disk Utility/Repair Permissions and/or deleted the .plist from your user library To see the user library, hold down the option key while using the Finder Go to Folder command.

Hi have had problems with photo's and films going onto a 2010 Apple Classic mp3. Have managed to sort photo's but the films won't copy and comes up with message videos not copied cannot be played on this ipod

Self explanatory.
You could try creating an iPod version of the films.
Use CTRL and B to display the Menu bar shown above. Alternatively, use the ALT key, followed by the F key, the W key and finally the I (eye) key - that's (menu)/File/Create New Version/Create iPod or iPhone version. -
Hello apple
I have the problem with my iPhone and my friends have this problem too.
My iPhone have the problem about calling and answer the call. When I use my iPhone to call I can't hear anything from my iPhone but the person that I call can answer it but when answer both of us can't hear anything and when I put my iPhone to my face the screen is still on and when I quit the phone application and open it again it will automatic call my recent call. And when my friends call me my iPhone didn't show anything even the missed call I'm only know that I missed the call from messages from carrier. Please check these problem I restored my iPhone for 4 time now in this week. I lived in Hatyai, Songkhla,Thailand and many people in my city have this problem.
Who have this problem??Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

I have a problem with indesign cs6 and my epson 3880 on mac
I have a problem with indesign cs6 and my epson 3880 on mac. I need an older version of indesign but do not have a serial number....any suggestions?
I see then I believe Kglad's advice is on track with starting with updating your printer drivers. I have also moved this discussion over to the InDesign forum as the Users in this forum likely have additional suggestions.
Also if you can please turn off your e-mail signature if you want to respond via e-mail. Your responses are going to a public forum where the information is accessible by anyone. I have edited your previous response to remove the signature. -
I have a problem with my motherboard and my battery of my 2010 macbook pro 13". It was just serviced with a new screen, keyboard, and logic board. How much will a new battery and motherboard cost and would it be worth it or should I just get a new computer. It was about 300 dollars to get it serviced last week. if it adds up to much past 600 dollars I will just get a new one. THANKS FOR ANY HELP!
P.S During classes today it began beeping in my bag. Like three kind of long steady beeps then a short pause, and when I opened it I couldn't see anything but it was on so I turned it off and back on.Depends on what options your Apple store offers - if they can do a depot repair (where they send it out), that's around $300 for all parts & labor.
If the store doesn't have that option, a logicboard is around $600, battery $80-$100, from what I've seen.
If they JUST replaced the logicboard, you absolutely should NOT have to pay for another replacement - the replacement is covered by a warranty. If they want you to pay for it, make sure you have a copy of the receipt for the work that was recently completed so you can show it to them. They have no reason to charge you for another logicboard.

Hi i have i problem with my iphone and the problem is the security question i have forgot the answers
I understand German and Italian i littlebit EnglishYou need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
