Log Out of Apple Website

Hi everyone, I'm new to mac and of course this forum.
After reading apple's tips for protecting your account, their first suggestion is:
"Always sign out after you have finished purchasing from any Apple website or service."
Well where do you log out? I've been searching everytime I log into my account and can't find it anywhere. I just end up closing the webpage to exit. When I asked that question to customer service after purchasing three mac products they didn't seem to have an answer. The logout is in plan site for this forum, why not the same for their website?
thanks for any help,
ome

I see what you mean. I went to the Apple store and ended up being logged out by just quiting my browser in it's menu.

Even though I am logged into the apple website with my apple id, I am unable to log into the App Store. It's the same account.

Back up all data.
Step 1
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Log out, log back in, and test. If there's no improvement, continue.
Step 2
Reset your computer’s PRAM.

Unable to Log out in Apple discussions

When I try to log out in Apple Discussions, I get an error message saying cannot find page. I have to shut down Safari to logout. I haven't had any problems before. I did have to change my Apple ID to be able to use my new iPod Touch recently so would that have made a difference, or is it something Apple Discussions has been experiencing lately?

I have also had some intermittent flakey behavior the past few days but have attributed it to using a Windows Vista machine a few times instead of the Apple equipment
Seriously, the problems I have seen have been more along the lines of not being able to just back up from the second page in a forum to the first page. Have to manually hit page 1 to get back. A few times, backing up has taken me to the login page...hit the back arrow again and revert to the master list. Just a little flakey lately and inconsistent.
Nothing disasterous, though, so I have just been living with it...may be due to very high usage, when the MBA was announced the system seemed to come to its knees...just way too many people logged in is my guess.

Firefox logged out of all websites (FB, GOOGLE etc) while I was browsing?

This is an issue I faced today, I was normally browsing websites while being logged into multiple websites using my user accounts. All of a sudden out of nowhere (and while browsing...not logged out of any websites)....I got logged out of all websites, yes, all the websites I was logged into....is this is a security issue or a browser issue?
1. I did not clear cache/history/cookies - I am web dev so I know what I was doing?
2. I did not close FF, I am actually posting this after it happened and without restarting browser.
3. It happened to all of the websites altogether
I am concerned whether this is a security issue...and that I need to change passwords for my account

Still are you facing the issue??
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. <br>
See '''Creating a profile''':
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem <br>

How come whenever I go to Gmail then go to another website, I'm suddenly logged out of whatever website I just went to?

Example: I get an email from twitter. I go to GMail. Read the email then click the link within the email but then I'm suddenly logged out of the website even if I had just logged in.
This also happens just by going GMail. This problem has been persisting since the beginning of the summer.
'''This only happens in Firefox.'''
Resolutions I have tried:
* Enabled cookies for websites
* Checked/Unchecked "Use custom settings for history"
* Deleted cookies, cache, Site Preferences and History
* Checked all plugins and extensions
* Uninstalled then reinstalled Firefox
* Complete system can for Viruses and Malware
* Upgraded and downgraded the Firefox version
* Deleted the cookies.sqlite file and any cookies.sqlite-journal files

Do you have security software (firewall) that can block cookies?
Does it work if you switch on Private Browsing mode?

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

When logging out of a website, a new tab opens to the closed page but the original tab is still open. How do I close first tab?

When I open a site, such as a Credit card website, after I logon, but when I try to logout. When I hit the logout button, a new tab opens and this page is now the logged out page of the website, but the original tab is still open and the page is still logged on. I have tried every possible combination of changes in the Tab Mix Plus but cannot get the right ones to fix this problem.

Thank's but still no fix.
In safe mode everything works.
Without Zotero - everything works.
When the popup is loaded with Zotero, the tab shows a constant "Loading" with the circular in process icon.
The Zotero icon shows to the left of the tab.
If I right click on Zotero and close it, the close() js works properly
Is there a way to do a window.open() with:
A. no tabs -or-
B. block all add on's -or-
C. to kill an add on
before doing the close()?

Why do I get the message that my browser is trying to block me from logging out of a website properly and to close my browser?

When I log into my online banking and then log out, I get a pop-up message that says my browser is trying to block me from logging out properly and recommends closing my browser to maintain security. This does not happen on any other website I log into.

Windows 7, Firefox 4.0. I have the exact same problem. Those solutions had no effect, I still get the error message described by OP.
And I also get "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page" as well as when I look at this page
http://www.wbir.com/weather/radar/local/default.aspx
I get "Firefox has prevented this page from automatically reloading"
I know of tools/options/general/accessibility/warn me when..., but I don't want to turn that off for all sites. Is there a way to whitelist trusted sites so only those sites will be allowed to automatically reload and redirect?

Logging out of apple id w/o knowing password

I have two apple id's. One of the id's is associated with an old, no longer active, email account. This is the account that i am signed into on my iPhone. However I want to use my most current apple id (i.e. one that has my current email address associated with it). The dilemma I face is that when i try to sign out of my apple id on my phone that has the old email address; it asks for me to enter my password. I don't recall that password and do not have it written down anywhere. Then when I try to recall the password online, it asks for my birthday, but when i enter it i am notified what i entered is wrong (even though it is technically correct) - a myriad of issues, i know. Furthermore, i cannot have apple send an email to reset the password to that email account because it was disabled because it was compromised.
With that said, how can log out of this id with out being able to reset, or remember the associated password? Or is there a work around/solution I am overlooking

Good day djevisuals,
So it sounds as if your issue can be addressed by getting the password to that Apple ID reset. You will then be able to sign out of that Apple ID on the iPhone and then enter your newer Apple ID, is that correct?
Please use the steps in this article to help you reset the Apple ID password -
If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
It appears from your post you have already tried several of the options mentioned, and there is no need to attempt them again. Two possibilities remain, however -
Use two-step verification
Enter your Recovery Key.
Choose a trusted device. We'll send your device a verification code.
Enter the verification code.
Set a new password and select Reset Password.
If you never set up two-step verification, go on to the next step -
Get help
Make sure that you’re entering the correct Apple ID. In most cases, your Apple ID is also the primary email address of your Apple ID account. If these steps didn't help you change your password, contact Apple Support.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Safe computing,

How do I log out of the website?

The NI website requires that I log in before requesting assistance. However, I cannot locate the means to log out. How is this accomplished?

- Has this now been resolved?
If not you should be able to select "(This is not me)" next to the welcome message to sign out. See below for screenshot:

Cannot log out of Apple Store

There doesn't seem to be an Apple Store discussions section, so given that it relates to my iPhone 4 order, I'll post here!
The following kb article explains that to protect your Apple ID you should log out when you finish:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4232
However, there appears to be no way to do this after logging into the Apple online store.

I wasn't able to find anyway to log out as well. I also search to internet and found people having the same problem. I'm using safari. I closed safari and cleared cookies. When I navigated back to store.apple.com, my login info was gone.

How to log out of apple store?

There is no log out button after visiting the Apple or MAC store. Have i missed something?
Thank you for any pointer.

I'll have to disagree that there is "no need to do that."
Here's my situation:
I have a few different Apple IDs (for personal, for business). I received an email telling me that there was updated information regarding the status and estimated shipping date for my Mac Pro order. I clicked through to store.apple.com and entered my credentials to check the status of my order. After signing in, I realized that I used the wrong Apple ID and I should have used a different one. But...there is no way to sign out (that I can find). And even if I close out that browser window and then re-visit the page, it keeps my logged in. So, my concern isn't about someone being able to come along and purchase something because I'm perpetually logged in, my concern is that now I can't get to the information I need because I can't sign in with a different ID.
I'm going to try and quit my browser entirely now (which is a hassle for a handful of reasons); but I find it quite surprising that a) there is no clean or clear way to sign out and b) everyone seems to think there is no use case for signing out. I can think of several, including my example above.

Hello .. how to log out from apple device wothout pc or pc with video steps

i want to log out from all Apple id on all apple device

Hello there sarmad yasin,
It sounds like you are looking for a way to sign out of all your Apple devices in one go. While this is not a function currently avaiable, you can reset your Apple ID password to prevent access to your information:
Apple ID: Changing your password - Apple Support
Follow these steps to change your Apple ID password. If you can't remember your password, follow the steps for what to do if you forget your Apple ID password.
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com).
Click “Manage your Apple ID” and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you're unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
Click "Password and Security".
In the "Choose a new password" section, click Change Password.
Enter your old password, then enter a new password and confirm the new password. Click Save when done.
The next time you use an Apple feature or service that uses Apple ID, you'll be asked to sign in with your new Apple ID password.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Sterling

Unable to log on with apple ID - error message "an unknown error has occurred"

When I try and log on to apple website using my apple ID, I get an error message saying "an unknown error has occurred". How can I fix this?
I've changed my password several times and was able to successfully make a purchase from Itunes using new password, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

For whatever reason, I can now log in to the apps store with one of my ids. It says my other account no longer exists so I can not update pages and numbers. It will not let me rebuy these programs under the working account because my computer recognizes that I bought them before.

Toolbar buttons do not work and are greyed out not allowing me to log in or log out

I have increasingly been frustrated with firefox not allowing me to log in and or log out of important websites in which i pay my bills online This happens because the toolbar buttons are greyed out. It makes this feature non functional, therefore I have to resort to closing the website page without logging out. Can you tell me how to fix this problem? When i click on the buttons there is no response; its as if they were drawn.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

ITunes keeps saying my password is incorrect, but I can use it to sign onto the Apple website. Please Help

Please help! I can log onto the Apple website with my Apple ID and password, but with the same information iTunes sais "Your Apple ID or password was entered incorrectly"

I have tried several times to re-set the password with a new one.
This sometimes works once but then again, same issue from the iphone.
What's really strange is that the AppleId displayed when I have to enter my pwd to confirm an update of an application for example, is not my current real AppleId "[email protected]" but only "username".
What can I do, I'm stuck, with my 25 updates to do for months... ?
