IChat keeps login off during Screensaver

Hello,
iChat 5.0.3 keeps login off my account! Not sure when it really happens but I can say when my laptop kicks in the screensaver and the display goes to sleep, iChat is logged off when I get back on the laptop!
I tried unchecking and rechecking all the settings in the Preferences!
Any advice? This is very ignoring!
Tanks

Hi,
Are you saying the computer is set not to go to Sleep and only the Screen is ?
System Preferences > Energy Saver)
Does it have a different setting, as it is a Laptop, if unplugged ?

  • Re: Satellite L350D-131 Keeps powering off during use

    I have had my Satellite L350D-131 for 28 days and it has been great but over the last 48hrs I have been trying to add music to my laptop for when I go to uni next week.
    But it keeps powering off mid use, there is no consistency to why it is turning off.
    Can anyone help?

    Hello
    This is brand new notebook and something like this should not happen in normal circumstances.
    The question is how you use your notebook. if the notebook is placed on the bed and cooling fan is blocked I can imagine it happens because of overheating.
    Is the notebook placed on the desk when this happen?
    Are you sure the cooling fan at the bottom side is not blocked somehow?

    My iphone 3gs keeps switching of during phone calls. The apple logo appears and I have to wait until it switches itself back on, this happens without my help, any ideas please

    Try restoring the iPhone. If a normal restore doesn't work, try setting it up as a new device.

  • IChat keeps shutting off when using a different login...

    I recently set up my sister's new iMac 20" Intel. Her login is the administrator. I also made a login for other members of the family. iChat works using her login but when I login using another login on the list (i.e. her daughter's login) I try to turn on iChat but then it crashes and the software shuts down. Doesn't anyone know whats going wrong with this?

    HI Xterratop,
    Did you manage to set iChat up in the duaghter's account ?
    Were you using your screen name ?
    Did you type in your Real Name in the set up screens ?
    It may be there is a problem with the Name you entered in the set up screens and the one in the Address Book at the Me card for that Mac account.
    Go to the /Users/(That Mac account)/Library/Preferences and delete all the apple.com.ichat.xxx.plist items you can find and force it to go through the set up screens again.

  • Why does iMac 2007 keep going off during power up?

    I've tried starting up several times, including in safe mode.  The bar gets about ¼ way along, then everything shuts off, again.
    No idea where my original disc is, but the DVD player hadn't worked for a few weeks now either.
    Not sure what to do.  A similar thing happened a few years ago when the screen would just go gray and freeze on start up, and the machine had to be sent away to be repaired. 
    Any ideas or suggestions?

    Managed to get it going agin by doing a restore from my backup. Had to do the <Command, R> during power on, and do it from there.  Hopefully it will be ok now.

  • Mac keeps turning off during OS installation: from dvd and usb both

    I'm trying to install a new ssd, and mac keeps shutting down while installing 10.6 from retail official dvd.
    so I made a bootable OS in my usb in disc utility (the whole "source" and "destination" tech), but mac still shuts down while installing OS from it.
    what is likely to be wrong?
    Corrupt boot files made from corrupt dvd?

    If the drive is not formatted as GUID, it's not bootable.

    I am afraid that you have no choice other than Repairing Disk using Recovery HD.
    You can download music purchased from iTunes again for free, in case it is lost.

  • I have a ipod nano shuffle, 6th gen.  I bought it when I had Windows Vista.  I upgraded to Windows Ultimate 7.  Now it keeps shutting off.  Have to press power button and touch arrow to restart.  3 to 4 times a song.  I ran diagnostics.  Passed until end.

    Have iPod Nano Shuffle 6th Gen.  I purchased it when I had Windows Vista.  I have since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate .  Was fine with Vista.  Now, it keeps shutting off during the song, 3 or 4 times.  Have to press power button and then arrow to restart song.  I went to my iTunes and ran diagnostics.  Passed all until the end.  The last test had a red dot failure.  It said no iPod, iPhone, or iPad found.  Does someone know how I can correct the problem?  iTunes is always updating, so I am current.

  • IChat keeps logging me off..

    ichat logs me off every ten minutes and says that "The connection to the host was unexpectedly lost." No other computers in my house get logged off, Safari still works on my computer, and the internet provider says it's not them. What's wrong?

    There are now many applications that can login to the AIM servers including GoogleTalk. The Leopard release has also caused an increase in the amount of Mac users trying out or returning to iChat.
    It seems at the moment AIM is not coping that will with who is or is not Logged in and dropping some people.
    As Defcom has pointed out it seems to help if you use another port.

  • Hey (: I have the new iPad and I want to ask what is "healthier" for the battery : turn the device off in the night or keep it on during the night ? Thank you !

    Hey (: I have the new iPad and I want to ask what is "healthier" for the battery : turn the device off in the night or keep it on during the night ? Thank you !

    BTW, statements like
    "Use the device until the battery has drained to the point of self-shutdown. Basically, use it until it turns itself off."
    in articles like the one at http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/ are complete BS and if you do follow their "advice", your battery life will be severely hampered. Particularly if you also follow one of the comments: "Step One.One: Leave the device for 5+ hours before start charging. This will fully drain the battery." Well, the guy that advised the latter certanly doesn't know anyhting about lithium batteries and the damage deep discharging does to them.
    Again, what the article (and the above-cited comment) advices is complete b*llsh*t and noone should really do this.

  • My iPad keeps shutting itself off during use.  It does not matter is the battery is 100% charged or not.  Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?

    Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

  • Aspire One D255 monitor shuts off during boot

    Every time I boot, immediately after the kernel lauches init, my screen powers off.  About 15 seconds later, it comes back on.
    The delay before coming back on seems to be independent of the init process.  If I speed init up, by the time it comes back on it's waiting at the login prompt.  If I slow it down, it comes back on while init is still running.
    I tried adding an echo -e -n '\033[13]' to my init scripts in an effort to unblank the display, but it doesn't help.
    This happens both booting of the install image and after installation. It makes it extremely hard to figure out what's going on during startup.
    Has anyone seen this before?

    I have a similar issue with my aspire one, but the display is not turning off, it is actually the backlight turning off during boot. I use fbsplash with a dark theme but a bright progress bar. During boot, it appears as if the screen has turned off, but looking closely, I can still see the progress bar.
    I have tried several different methods of keeping the backlight on to no avail.
    Personally I am thinking it is monitor signal detection during a monitor mode reset during boot, ie from console resolution switching to KMS resolution. Most monitors lose signal detection when changing mode (in my experience). Some display a "No Signal" message of some sort, some briefly turn off until signal is detected again, and in the Aspire One case, the backlight turns off. Put it down to monitor manufacturers built in power saving "features".
    Tha same thing happens when I boot windows.
    Of course, if anyone does come up with a solution, I am eagerly listening!
    Cheers.
