PC App logs out in the midst of a game download... :( WTF!?

Hey there,
I've never used Best Buy's online store to buy anything but this time I thought I'd try it since Steam kept refusing to accept my payment. I'm about 30% into my XCom Enemy Unknown download, however, it has occurred to me that the PC App has a nasty tendency to log you out and hence suspend your download. That is unless you are not actively staring at its interface until your download finishes. This has occurred twice in the last hour and thirty minutes and I can't say that I'm exactly pleased about this. Tell me I'm crazy but I think that this is ABSURD! My download is not going to be done for hours, which is OK, but do I really have to have the fugly PC App screen up in front of me the whole time? Can't I do other things on my computer while my game's being downloaded without having to frantically switch over to the PC App to make sure it is indeed downloading my game and NOT in the logout state?
I would appreciate that something is done about this issue.
Cheers,
Dre

How do i log out off the app store as it has the wrong email and I can't do my updates as i don't know the password

How do i log out off the app store as it has the wrong email and I can't do my updates as i don't know the password

Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, tap on the Apple ID, and choose 'Sign Out'.
However, logging out of the iTunes & App Store won't change the Apple ID you need to use to update an app. It only affects what Apple ID you're using to download a new app.
Apps always have to be updated using the Apple ID that was used to download it originally. Go to iforgot.apple.com to reset that password. If you cannot do so, then contact Apple Account Security, or delete the app and redownload it using an Apple ID and Password that you know.

I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks it asks for the old account's password(which my ex changed by now)

I used to share one apple ID/account with my ex but made a new one for myself recently and logged out of the old one but when I try to update my iBooks (only happens with this app)it asks for the other account's password(which my ex changed by now). I don't understand why this happens when I'm logged into my account and it only happens with that app. Please help, I need to update. :/

Content (apps, music, ibooks, films etc) is tied to the account that originally downloaded it, so if the iBooks app was downloaded using the account that you used to share with your ex then only that account can download updates to it. As it's a free app you could delete it and re-download it under your own account - and then re-download your ibooks into it (or copy the books to your computer's iTunes first via File > Transfer Purchases and then sync them back to the app).

Desktop App Log Out

My boss paid for my adobe CC account, so it's all installed on my computer (Mac OS X Mavericks). I got a new job so I got CC for myself, but I can't figure out how to log out of the CC Desktop App from the one my boss pays for.
Does anyone know how to?

>installed on my computer... got a new job so I got CC for myself
I don't 100% understand the question... are you saying that you installed CC from work on your home computer, and now you want to remove your old work version so you can use your new personal version?

Ios8 apps logging out

Since I updated my iPhone5 to ios8, my apps log out completely when I press the home button.
For example, I have a store-card app on my phone. It used to stay logged in all the time. Now, every time I press the home button I am logged out of the app completely and have to re-enter my email address and password.
Also, with myfitnesspal, I used to be able to start inputting a recipe and toggle to Safari to get details then go back in and complete the data entry in MFP. Now, when I toggle out of MFP, I am logged out of the app and when I go back in I am taken to the home screen rather than the last screen I was working on.
I have noticed the same thing with a bunch of different apps. Is this just the individual apps that need to update to be compatible with ios8 or is my phone glitchy? (I just downloaded MFP's new ios8 update but the problem persisted).
Anyone else encountering this?
Any fix ideas?

Not sure about FB if you can log out or not (don't use it myself) but for the native Mail app you really can't log out of your account. All you can do is delete the account (which is a pain to re-do each time) or go into settings and simply disable the Mail portion of the account (but someone knowledgeable enough could simply turn it back on).
The other option is to set a passcode for your iPhone and/or not let others use your iPhone, or not use the native Mail app for your Comcast mail, use Safari instead.

Blue screen with spinning gear when quit apps/log out

My issue was when I quit all applications and logged out. The screen turned a light blue and in the center a spinning gear. After this screen was there for some time, it was just blue...and then it finally went back to the normal login screen and I pressed "sleep".
I woke it up and tried logging in as Guest to see if it did the same thing. I quit all applications and the same result.
I did install Touchcopy that morning...perhaps something happened with that? Although it is supposed to be compatible with Leopard and Snow Leopard and I used the program during the day and it worked fine and quit fine.
Do you know what would cause this? I couldn't find anything on this discussion site.
I see people talking about "reparing permissions", but I don't know what this means. As I said, this is my first Mac.

Thanks for your help. I have read so many people talk about "repairing permissions", but I didn't know what that was. I know plenty of Windows maintenance and "best practices", but none for Mac. Thanks..

I have changed my icloud account but now can't log out of the old account on my ipad. What can I do next?

I am having problems with logging out of the icloud on my ipad so that I can log in with my new icloud account. How can I change this so that all of my logins will work?

Have you got 'Find My iPad' enabled? This has to be turned off using the original ID address.
Try going back to http://appleid.apple.com and changing the ID back to the original address. If you can get this accepted, then go to the iCloud preferences/settings pane, stop 'Find My ....', and then sign out. Do the same on any other devices or computers.
Then go back to http://appleid.apple.com and change the ID to the new one. Sign in with that on all your devices.
However if the address which forms the original ID is now not working it can't be validated and it's possible that you won't be able to revert to it. In this situation only Support can help you.
To contact iCloud Support: if you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the initial period, you can contact them here:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.

How do I keep BI Publisher running when I log out of the console in linux?

I am using the standalone version of BI Publisher and I want to keep it running even after I log out of the console. I have a script that starts it so I typed 'nohup start_bipub.sh &' but when I log out it shuts down anyway. I started my apache server the same way and it still runs after I log out so the only thing I can think of is that X is being killed due to the logout and BI Pub needs it. Is there anyway to keep this process running?
Thanks,
Denise

It depends on the data path from the tower you're using, through NATs and many routers, all the way back to the server. Which depends on your current location and sheer luck.
For some users, the data path stays alive for 30-45 minutes at a time... thus the phone only has to ping the server that often for push to work. Their push doesn't use much battery.
Other users have the misfortune of being connected via pathways that only keep a connection alive for 5-10 minutes. Their iPhones eat battery like crazy, and they usually end up switching to a 15-30 minute timed fetch instead.

When you change your Apple ID Password does it log out all the connected accounts?

When you change your apple id password does it log out all the accounts synced to it or connected?

You will need to logout of the account on all clients after changing the password, then login with the new one.

Any way to stop being logged out of the forums every 10 minutes?

Since the recent alteration of the forum, I keep getting logged out. Is there any way to increase the time or keep me logged in at all?

Not in Safari, The timeout length is ±30 minutes. I found that it is particularly annoying when composing a post, as it will not Post when logged out in the middle of composition.
I use Firefox and a FF add-on called "Reload Every" - applied to a tab or window, I set it to 'Custom' 20 minutes. You must apply it every time you start FF (from the 'context' menu (ctrl+click). Note that the Tab or window needs to remain open at all times (could hide it in the Dock) for it to work. I haven't been logged out since adding it to FF
The very good reason for the login timeout is that some people use their devices in very public places - school, work, coffee shop, etc. - and may walk away from it (particularly a desktop) for a period Because AppleID is used in the iStore(s), being logged in may become a security risk,
NOTE: There is also a time limit to be able to Edit your post. That seems to be ±15 minutes

Enhancement while user log out of the session

Hi
We are connecting to the external system through web services and query it to get the data. We will call this connection to external system from most of the important transactions. Our problem is, once the user connects to the external system, he has to stay connected tilll the user log out i.e. user has to disconnect while he log out. I am using shared objects and creating instance while user connects. But no clue where to clear this instance and close the connectivity. So, my question is there any BADI, Userexit or enhancement triggers while user log out or any other way to implement . Please advise
Regards
Shailaja.

HI Sailaja ,
You can check that by Creating One RFC by passing parameter when you are connecting to external system and also when you are logging out of the external system , one flag can be paased to RFC when he logs out and can close the session accordingly .

Deepak.
