ICloud log out problems

My mac upgraded recently to iCloud, so I logged in with my .mac account details, and it has synced all my calendars, address book etc. I then bought an iPhone 4s which wanted to sync with iTunes to register it. I had long forgotten, but that uses a different account for iCloud.
So the mac and the iPhone are now synced to two different accounts. I tried to log out of my mac and log in with the itunes account, but when I try to log out, it tells me it will keep all my data on iCloud and take it off my mac.
So I'm in this situation where if I log out, I lose my calendars and address book data, and it will be kept on the iCloud account I don't plan on using anytime soon.
How can I put the two accounts together without losing any data? I called apple for the iphone and mac, who said they couldn't merge accounts and itunes had to do it. I emailed them (they apparently have no telephone number from the uk to call) and was told I'd have a response after 48 hours but I've had no response from them.
Should I nag them or can someone else help with an answer? Thanks

According to your signature you are running 10.6.8 - you cannot run iCloud on that: are you in fact running Lion?
If so, go to System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign out'. Close the prefs, re-open and sign in with the correct ID.
(Please amend your 'Products' info to show your actual operating system.)

ICloud logged out, how can I reinstall

You don't need to reinstall. Basically, you need go to control panel (System Preferences), click in iCloud and setup again....

hi again i discovered that in event viewer there is DCOM error, and it is related with Component Services but i can't still solve the problem...

Your BI Publisher problem is likely related to the fact that you never changed the default password for the BI Publisher Administrator to match that of the BI EE Administrator.
Go to:
http://SERVERNAME:9704/xmlpserver/
and log in with the old Admin password.
Then go to the ADMIN tab then USERS, then the Administrator user, then you can change the password.

Log out problem in all installed desktops

Hello, my name is Surf Bluecrab.
I have many distro on my system but I am new to Arch.
I have installed a month ago the "Bridge Linux" distro and I really like it. So far this is the one I am having the most fun with and software available
thru the AUR is quite recent and I am now becoming comfortable with PACMAN, PACAUR and Octopi.
I have decided that Arch will become my main OS alongside a well configured and stable Fedora that can always be used for system rescue and stuffs.
I have a question and a problem I would like to ask the community:
1- I was wondering if a system installed from Bridge would be considered "Vanilla Arch" and if I would be allowed to join the Arch community?
2- I have installed all popular desktops and compiled thru PACAUR some least popular ones. After a full system upgrade and desinstaling a non working 'Equinox Desktop' I have noticed a problem I cannot solve that happend in ALL my installed desktop:
I cannot fully logout. For example in KDE, if I logout, all windows and background shutdown but the mouse pointer keep moving forever never returning to lxdm ( the installed login manager that I prefer ). The funny thing is the same thing happens in MATE, XFCE, LXDE. The only way to fully log out is for me to log into console and kill lxdm-binary to automatically return to the graphical login. I am unsure if the problem is related to lxdm or something else. If anyone got an idea where I should look to try to fix this I would appreciate.
Well thats it for now, I havent read all the faq and rules yet so please be patient with me, I whould sincerly like to join this community, after playing with this distro for a month and learning a few things I have realised how much more tweaking fun Arch is compared to the others.
Thank you for readin.
PS : I am also shopping for a Raspberry Pi, I havent decided if I'll go with Raspbian or Arch arm.

First, Welcome to the Arch Linux Community. You are in
But, as you seem to be aware, Bridge Linux is not Arch Linux. It is similar, but there are differences. Unfortunately, it is not we who are cognizant of what are those differences. The experts there are the people of Bridge itself. We will ask you to take support questions to them. We do that because our charter is to provide these forums as a resource to support Arch Linux. We do not want to allow confusion to be introduced by dealing with special cases to handle non-Arch distributions. In your case of not being able to log out, we cannot help you. The issue may, or may not be caused by the differences in Bridge. We are not going to be exploring those differences here.
As to your first question, " if a system installed from Bridge would be considered 'Vanilla Arch' ". If you mean, I installed Bridge, is it vanilla Arch, no. If, on the other hand, you mean this article on installing Arch Linux from an existing Linux distribution (In your case Bridge), yes that is a means of installing a true Vanilla Arch.
I will leave this open for now in the spirit of welcoming you to the Arch Community (even if you are not running Arch just yet )

Schedule icloud log out?

I will need to log into my icloud account at work but am worried I won't remember to log out when I leave. Is there a way to schedule a log out? A script I could add to iCal or an Automator action perhaps?
Thanks in advance

Go back and change your AppleID back to the old address.
Do NOT send verification email.
Then Settings > iCloud and delete the account.
Then go and change your AppleID back to the new address.

Logging out problems

I have my computer to disable automatic login, and I also Filevault on. The last couple of times I have tried logging out and running Filevault, it has not progressed onto my login screen, it has just said it is continuing to check for unused files or whatever it does, thus I need to restart my computer. I did this once and I logged back in and my dock returned to normal. Also, my mail account was deleted and some of my other settings as well. I re-did everything, then logged off to see if the same thing would happen....this time I logged off, but chose to skip Filevault, I logged back in and my dock was reset again and some of my settings went back to normal again. I tried to disable Filevault but it said I would need 4079.9 GB to disable it. Is there something that is causing this or could it be a number of things? Any suggestions would be helpful, thank you very much!
kasey

I would assume I have enough space to disable it. I have about 20 GB left on my hard drive. This is the message I get when I try to disable it...
Turning off FileVault requires an additional 4079.3 GB of free disk space to create an unencrypted copy of the home folder. Try emptying the Trash or deleting files you don't need
What do you think?

Log out problem

Hi,
My machine logs out automatically after about 2 hours when left untouched.
This is good for security I guess, but sometimes when i want to listen to music for example without using the mac it will still log out automatically. I have looked at the energy settings, have dragged the slider to never sleep but it still logs out by itself after 2 hours. Is there anyway round this?
Thanks.

Open the Security pane of System Preferences and check whether the computer is set to automatically log you out after a period of inactivity.

FaceBook APP.... logging out problems... kicks me out

I have tried everything ..I think. Is anyone out there have Facebook log out issues when you are trying to look at notifications or upload a picture or just about anything else? I've synched this thing and restarted and deleted and reloaded but still having issues after all that. I have the Iphone 3GS...any HELP is appreciated

Oh, well, I didn't know that. I figures since I can log in everywhere else with no issue except my phone, that it was a phone issue. My bad!
So, where can I ask to get an answer to my question?

ICLOUD Sign out problem

I am running 8.02 on my IPAD. Have recently changed my apple ID and can not sign out of ICLOUD as it references the now defunct old Apple ID

Hi Paul,
In order to sign out of your Apple ID on your iPad, follow the steps in this article -
iTunes Store settings - iPhone
If you are using iCloud, you will also want to go into Settings > iCloud > select Sign Out, the last item on the page.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Any solution in sight for the constant automatic log-outs?

Just wondering if there's any chance of solving the problem of being logged out dozens of times per day?
I know the Jive software is the absolute pits, but even the elephantine Adobe bureaucracy managed to solve this constant log-out problem on their forums, which are also underpowered by Jive.
In any event, at least I'll have this post to find this board again.

That's not the case here. I've been logged out three times this afternoon already, without my having closed Firefox 3.6.19 under Tiger 10.4.11. I'm within roughly 100 miles of Apple Headquarters in Cupertino.
Please don't interpret this as a complaint against Apple or the forums. I'm familiar with the miserable performance of Jive software.
CORRECTED: Firefox 3.6.19

Contact the original owner, and ask them to remove the device from their icloud.

I had already forget the password that why I create a new Apple ID.
Have any solution for problem like this ?

Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.
