mac os x 10.4 logs out on its own when computer gets "busy"

I have never seen that happen.
Maybe you should try posting in the _Using Mac OS X Tiger Forum_.
Someone there may be able to help.

What else causes my MBP to log out on its own?

Using 10.9.2 on a MacBook Pro, the MBP's begun logging itself out when unattended. I return after a while to find the login screen. Any processes I'd left running or scheduled (e.g., Audio Hijack Pro to record from Firefox) either never started or were dumped.
Energy Saver (for Power adapter) is set to "Never" for Computer Sleep, and "Put hard disks to sleep when possible" is unchecked.
It happens regardless of whether the screen saver engages.
Security and Privacy, General, does have checked "Require Password 4 hours after sleep or screen saver begins," but this has happened in as little as under 20-30 minutes.
As shown on the Prefs imge, only three other panels should have *anything possibly* to do with logout—Users & Groups, Internet Accounts, and Network. I can't find anything else there that may cause this.
Suggestions? Thank you.

William, I started the MBP and left at about 8:25. After that, note the Console reports at 9:12 and 10:14.
Previously trying to resolve a similar issue, I do recall seeing "Could not find image named 'NSApplication'."
(I don't know what these mean, nor what to do about it. I think I got back on the MBP at about 10:00.)
Thanks.

Game Center keeps logging out on its own

Just started to do this at random, now it won't stop. I've tried everything I can think of, to no avail. Anyone else having this problem?

Yep, add me to the list. Been doing this for a few weeks now - just intermittently shows up the Game Center sign in screen when I start a game. Not every time, sometimes not for a few days. But it does keep happening when it has never happened in the past.
What's equally frustrating is that I have account modification turned off in parental settings and so it won't even let me sign in when the prompt comes up. It just doesn't work and shows no error message at all. So I have account modification turned on now which lets me sign in but the prompts still keep coming up.

Mac Book Pro i7 - Logging off on its own, night time, power down sleep

Hi Everyone,
I have had my Macbook pro for around 4 months now.
And I have had this problem from the beginning.
At night, often when I leave my machine, with software open and things active.
I come back in the morning to find my mac logged off and at the login screen.
Can anyone suggest what would be causing this?
I have MAC OSX 10.6.7
8GB of DDR3 RAM
2.8 GHZ Core i7 Processor
I have tried SMC resets and it doesnt seem to work.
Any ideas of why my mac book pro might be logging off on its own would be great!
Thank you.

Try trashing these 3 .plist preferences and reboot. Reset your Energy Saver preferences.

What do I do to straighten out this problem... When I try to access Firefox after having logged out of a previous session I get a msg that Firefox is still running and I have to restart the computer in order to access internet.

All you need to do is wait. While Firefox appears closed, it's not. It doing house cleaning. Cleaning out cookies and cache. How long it takes depends upon how much garbage you have collected.
If you start the Task Manager and open the Process window, you will be able to see when Firefox has finished up and closed down.
If you forced Firefox to close using the task manager, then the house keeping process seems to freeze up.
Also, as you've already found out from the above link, some programs and plugins will prevent Firefox from closing properly. I've found this less common then simply being in a hurry. But you need to also consider it.

I have a Mac OS X and a Sony HDR-CX7 camcorder. When I get onto the sony webpage to download program to import movies onto my Mac, they only have downloads for Windows. How can I get a program for my Mac?

I have a Mac Os X and a Sony HDR-CX7 camcorder. When I get onto the Sony webpage to download the program so I can import my movies, they only have programs Windows. How do I get this for my Mac.

You shouldn't need any application except what you already have: iMovie, iDVD, iPhoto....

Some formats are not readable by the above; you can use something like MPEG Streamclip to convert the footage or Quicktime Pro (as mentioned in one of the articles).

I currently have a mac osx, and my CC keeps coming saying its expired, when it should be running the CS6 design standard. So how do I get my platform to use the CS6 as my default instead of the CC one.

And you can change the default program for a file type under File --> Info.

Mac is making a double note ( sound) on its own?

My mac makes an intermittent double note sound on its own without any keys being pressed? Is there something open that needs closing or erasing?

Hello
I know this is an old thread - but did you ever find the solution to this.
My colleagues come into the office this morning and said my iMac was making a sound similar to a drill. The iMac was not hot or vibrating.
Worried as I am now sat in front of it and not wanting it to blow up!
Many thanks
Lewis

I am filling out an application and when it gets to the signature portion my reader pulls it up but won't let me hit the submit button. Why is this happening?

Why does my Mac take so long to log out of OS X now?

Ever since I updated to OS X, my Mac takes FOREVER to log out; makes it harder to switch users quickly or put to sleep quickly. How come?

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.

Firefox does not log out of Gmail/Facebook when window is closed

I have set each page to not 'keep signed in' for both Gmail and Facebook (have not tried others) and yet when I close firefox and re-open, my pages are still fully logged in.
I have taken steps to clear cookies and history, close browser, open browser, log into Gmail and Facebook in new sessions and made sure the options to remain logged in were not selected and then closed the browser only to re-open and have my accounts still open.
Additionally, beyond that I have enabled the clear history when firefox closes option for 'active logins', 'cookies', and 'cache'. Still the sessions persist. This should not be possible. None of the tabs are pinned currently.
A friend, having the same settings (we think) was finding that Facebook sessions would be logged out, but his Gmail session would still be active for his inbox but attempting to reach account settings would require him to log in. In my experience, I was able to get to the account settings page without having to log in.
What is going on? How do we get Firefox to behave like it used to (like it should)?

it's in about:config, browser.sessionstore.privacy_level

Mac Pro 4,1 kernel panic - restarts on its own

I have a Mac Pro 4,1 that will not finish the start up process It kernel panics at the end of the process. It will then do a restart on its own and kernel panics again.
What's the best way to figure out what's wrong with it? HDs? Processor ? Or the RAM? I have not changed anything for a long time.
Thanks

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
