my HP proONe 400 keeps logging off after approx 2 minutes...Help!

Hi,
If it's logging you out after 2 minutes of inactivity, here's one thing to check.
Right click on an empty area of the Desktop and select Personalize.  Click the Screen saver link in the bottom right.  In the following window you can adjust the time before the screensaver kicks in the  'Wait' dropdown menu and remove the tick from the box next to 'On resume, display log-on screen'.  Click Apply, then Ok to save the setting change.
Regards,
DP-K

  • Computer will log off after so many minutes of no usage

    My MacBook Pro will log off or the log off confirmation window will log off after so many minutes of being away from my computer. This happens instead of my computer just going to the screen saver. Any way I can change this setting somehow!?
    Thanks in advance!

  • L512 keeps logging off after inactivity in spite of settings

    I'm running Windows 7 on my L512, and I run things in the background that I don't want to stop. (Seti@home, if you're interested.) I set the Power Manager to never log out under idle settings, and it worked for a couple of years, but recently it logs off after about 10-15 minutes (not sure exactly how long). I *think* there was a Windows update right before the problem started, but since there are *always* Windows updates that could be coincidence. What I want: on plugged in status, the computer should keep running until I shut the top or press-and-hold the off/on button. Can do? Thanks. Oh, and I'm something of a n00b when it comes to computers, so talk to me like I'm your grandma, who I probably resemble. :-)

    Maybe this extension can prevent that if it happens when the computer is left unintended.

    Maybe also check the date and time in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.

  • Sound keeps going off after 10-15 minutes

    Hello,
    I have the same problem like the previous post. The sound goes off atfter 10-15 minutes and it does not matter what I am listening to (youtube, movies, or any other video).  I have a satellite C655D model.  I downloaded the most recent audio drivers but it did not help.  Also, when I first log into my computer (when I type my password) there is a strange sound.  I ran windows diagnostics and it said I need an AMD/ATI video driver.  I would appreciate a prompt response.  Thanks

  • Logged off after no activity

    It looks like I am being logged off after a period of inactivity. I have turned off energy savings and my screensaver, but I still appear to get logged off automatically after some time (I do not know how long, but it seems to be above 15 mins).
    How to I make my system keep me logged in?

    Hi
    Have a look at System Preferences > Security > General. You may have the "Log out after xx minutes of inactivity" option enabled?
    HTH?

  • ITunes will log off after setting visualizer

    Hi there - I have the newest version of iTunes, and use it quite a bit. With the old version of iTunes I used to be able to set the visualizer and walk away from it and it would keep running through my playlists for hours at a time. Now, with the newest version I'll set it up as I always had, and it will only play a song or two before my screen saver kicks in and logs off of iTunes stopping the music - a real annoyance when I'm used to continuous music. Any suggestions? All of my setting haven't changed (security etc...)...
    Cheers

  • I am trying to do a full Time Machine Backup to a new external disk. The backup starts, and it says "Time remaining about 4 days." That seems like a very long time, but the real problem is that the computer "logs off" after a few hours, and the b.u. stops

    I am trying to do a full Time Machine Backup to a new external disk. The backup starts, and it says "Time remaining about 4 days." That seems like a very long time, but the real problem is that the computer "logs off" after a few hours, and the backup stops. The system preferences are set to "Never" for Computer sleep and Display sleep. The computer does not ordinarily log off automatically, but it has done this twice since I started the Time Machine backup.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the word "Starting" (without the quotes) in the String Matching text field. You should now see log messages with the words "Starting * backup," where * represents any of the words "automatic," "manual," or "standard." Note the timestamp of the last such message. Clear the text field and scroll back in the log to that time. Select the messages timestamped from then until the end of the backup, or the end of the log if that's not clear. Copy them (command-C) to the Clipboard. Paste (command-V) into a reply to this message.
    If all you see are messages that contain the word "Starting," you didn't clear the search box.
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don't post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Some personal information, such as the names of your files, may be included — anonymize before posting.

  • My nano keeps turning off after about 30 seconds ?

    why is my nano keep shuting off after 30 seconds?

    Hello Jeremie,
    It sounds like your headphones aren't fully inserted.  Try giving them a little bit more of a push until you hear a clicking noise.  You shouldn't see any silver part of the plug sticking out.
    If you are unable to do that, make sure the headphone jack is clear of debris and if nothing else, bring it to your local Apple Store/Genius Bar or AASP and see what they can do for you.

  • Iphone facebook app keep logging off

    My iPhone FB app keeps logging off inexplicably. Sometimes every minute. At times it wouldn't happen for days. I have noticed that whenever there is a friend request and i click on the link, it says error and wants me to log in again. Of course the log off happens at other times too.

    This is certainly not an iphone/IOS or Apple issue, since you're using a 3rd party app.
    The issue is with Facebook, I'm going to assume you did their updates already?
    If you did and are still having issue, no would be a good time to let Facebook know and write a review or at the very least look at their support site.

  • Rebel T3 keeps shutting off after few seconds of videoing

    I purchased a Rebel T3 for my daughter a few months ago.  We are having trouble getting it to video.  It keeps shutting off after a few seconds.  It has a clean class 10 - 32gb card in it.  Help please!  (we have used a couple different cards in it, they all do fine & take excellent photos, just MAJOR problem trying to use the video mode)  I have a T1i & have no trouble with the video on mine.

    The manual may state Class 6 as the minimum speed for reliable HD video capture, but that it is most definitely not the fastest card supported by the camera.
    The camera is able to take advantage of cards rated for speeds up to 45MB/s which should be at least 2x faster than the fastest Class 10 cards and about 4.5x faster than a Class 10 card operating at minimum spec of 10MB/s.  A Class 10 card is rated for minimum throughput of 10MB/s write speeds. So, it should be between 7-8x faster than a Class 6 card performing at it's specified minimum 6MB/s speed.
    So you really need to be looking at the write speed of the SD cards you buy.  But, this assumes that the SD card is the problem which it may not be.

  • Sticky Keys keeps turning off after every restart

    the Sticky Keys option in the universal access prefs pane keeps turning off after every restart. how can i fix this?

    It seems to be a common problem in the OS that when you restarts some of the settings get reset. For me it happens with the screeen dimming before sleep and the double click using 2 fingers and maybe others that I don't know about. I am hoping that its fixed in 10.4.7 which should be out within a week or so.

  • IPhone 5 keeps turning off after battery replacement

    iPhone 5 keeps turning off after battery replacement. After 10 minutes or so, the phone freezes and shuts off, can't even use it anymore.

    Hi there Luke811813,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    1.Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    2.Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    3.Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    4.After at least 15 minutes, if:
    •The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    •The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    •Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    5.If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    •If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    •If the display remains black, go to next step.
    6.Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    7.If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

  • Screen turns off after a few minutes and needs to be closed then opened

    hi, as the title suggests my powerbook screen turns off after a few minutes before my screensaver is set to come on and when i come back and press a key or move the pad it wont start up so i need to close the powerbook then open it up again for it to activate. its not a huge problem but my programs which connect to the internet seem to lose their connection when i open it up again. is this normal? is there a setting i can change?
    thanks

    Is there a way to "disable" Standby, Suspend and Off just when watching movies (in fullscreen or not)? I want them to do what they usually do in all other cases.
    Setting them to 0 in xorg.conf does the thing, but I need that functionality only when I'm wathing movies. Making a script that alters adjustments in xorg.conf isn't the best solution - you'd have to restart X every time you want to watch a movie .
    Cheers,

  • IPad Personal Hotspot antenna shuts off after a few minutes of non-use. This happens in both Verizon 3G and LTE areas. Turning off LTE does not help. Turning Personal Hotspot off and then on works. Does this happen on Mini and Retina?

    iPad--third generation shuts off antenna/hotspot after a few minutes of non-use.
    Happens in 3G and LTE VZ environment.
    Turning hotspot off and on getsw things working again.
    Does Apple have antenna on a timer so it shuts off after a few minutes?
    Does this happen on Mini and Retina as well?

    Fixed!
    Two things together have restored connectivity.
    1.  I changed the name under Settings > General > About > Name from My Name's iPad to iPad of My Name.  I read somewhere that iOS 7.0.1 or 7.0.2 (I forget which) sometimes had issues with apostrophes here.  Easy enough to test.
    2.  I then reset (again) the APN settings under Settings > Cellular Data > APN Settings > Personal Hotspot and reentered our provider's info (APN, Username, Password) there.
    I don't know WHY it worked, but the personal hotspot is now happily sharing (again) internet connectivity with my MacBook Pro.
