Retina MBP suddenly logging me out

My Retina MBP has now twice suddenly logged me out as a user with no warning.  Once when I was working on FCP7 and hit the backspace key and just now when I ejected and removed a USB stick from the right hand port.  Has anyone else had this issue?

thank you..
it just did it again, this time I was searching in spotlight:

  • Yosemite suddenly logs me out and in again

    Since updating to Yosemite I am facing some strange issues.
    While surfing of Working on my MacBook Pro (Late 2011) it suddenly logs me out and immediate in again.
    All open windows reappear but the whole startup procedure starts again.
    All connected or opened Drives and Images need to be reopened.
    As I'm working with this Computer also for my DJ-Gigs I think it's a very high risk at the moment to do a gig with this OS.
    I don't want to get logged out suddenly during the audience is listening to the music.
    Any guesses?
    Is it a bug or a new feature which can be switched off?
    I already checked for the Autologout after XX minutes of inactivity - it's not activated in my Preferences.

    When you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.  
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the 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.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Scroll back to the time you noted above.
    Select the messages entered from then until the end of the episode, or until they start to repeat, whichever comes first.
    Copy the messages to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of it useless for solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • MBP keeps logging me out randomly, when I go back all my work has been lost, happened numerous times... help?!

    Okay, so this seems to happen when I full screen something (either on internet or application) but is particularly annoying as I have had word documents open, which I have unsaved changes. It then logs me out, and when I log back in all the documents open again, but to where I last saved them.
    Any suggestions in prevention?

    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Security & Privacy ▹ Advanced... ▹ Log out after … minutes of inactivity: Off
    If there's a closed padlock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane, you may need to click it to unlock the settings. Enter your login password when prompted.

  • Final Cut Pro X will suddenly log me out

    This is not exactly a crash, but it amounts to the same thing. And, yes, I do lose work. It has occurred every once in a while since I first installed the software on this machine, but it has now happened twice within a 12-hour period. It can be most aggravating.
    Anybody else get this, or have an idea what's going on?

    Hey, you hijacked my thread! ;-)
    Actually, I get logged out, which results in a crash of everything in a way. As Russ said, I'll be doing something innocuous — a sizable percentage of the time it's when I've clicked the "Show Background Tasks" button — and the next thing I know, I see a blue screen, followed by the log-in fields. By that point, it has "taken down" everything I was working on, in every program I had active.
    FCPX has done this every so often since installing it on this home machine 3 or 4 months ago. The home machine is an old MacPro with Snow Leopard OS.
    I've been using FCPX for almost a year at work. There I'm using it on a 2011 iMac with Lion OS. There I get crashes similar to what Russ is talking about. If I'm really pushing it hard, there are days when it will crash twice in the same day. This general crashiness only started with the 10.0.6 update. I've been hoping against hope that Apple will fix this, but so far, zippo.
    Yes, I do occasionally trash prefs using Preference Manager, and repairing Permissions. It may help — Who knows.

  • MBP logs itself out after about an hour

    Two month old MBP 15" logs itself out after about one hour, although all energy settings are set to "never." I note someone else had the same problem (posted 12 Sep) but it does not seem to have been answered. This happens whether on battery or charger.

    Go to HD>Library>Preferences>SystemConfiguration - find the file - com.apple.PowerManagement.plist - delete it to the trash and open your System Prefs>Hardware>Energy Saver and put your preferred settings in.
    I had a problem where it would only stay at 'never'. By deleting and then resetting your settings a new prefs file will be created. See if that works.

  • Subscription just renewed & CC app logged me out!

    I'm a new subscriber to the CC Photography package and all has been well for my first month. I noticed yesterday that Adobe had billed my account for my first monthly renewal as expected, but today when I logged in to my Win7 PC and started working in PS the CC app suddenly logged me out, losing all my update history. Logged back in again with no problems (other than no longer having any history of installs and updates), but the next time I rebooted the PC I had again been logged out (this happened three times in succession).
    I think I may have now resolved this by deleting the db file in the OOBE folder as advised elsewhere in this forum, although I can't he certain until I next log in to my PC tomorrow.
    My question is, does this happen often to other CC customers? Seems rather an inconvenient hassle to have to jump through hoops on a monthly basis...

  • Possible to see what is logging me out?

    I'm having an issue where my MacBook Pro is suddenly logging me out. Frequently I see it when I think I put my laptop to sleep when I leave my office, but when i turn it back on the next morning, it either is logged out or it has a message that an app prohibited the logout from happening.
    Is it possible to log when the logout event occurrs and what is triggering it?

    Maybe check this first:

  • Macbook pro constantly logs me out

    Why does my MacBook pro retina Lion constantly log me out closing all my apps without warning? I have all powersave features turned off and I'm plugged into the wall. All I see the console monitor are these two problems.

    where XXXXX is my old login name from my old macbook pro that I migrated to the new machine and for some reason the new machine has my middle initial in it
    In a potentially unrelated matter I will also get much less frequent crashes where the laptop shuts completely off - and there are panics in the console log
    Any help would be appreciated

    Post the most recent panic report.

  • My retina MBP using all its ram?

    Hello,
    My first gen 15" retina MBP is almost always out of its 8GB of memory (I notice by watching activity monitor). Usually only 60 or so MB is free
    This occurs with rather plain usage - Chrome web browser, itunes, word, mail open on average
    Activity Monitor lists:
    kernal_task : 909MB, 101 threads
    WindowServer : 378 MB, 6 threads
    then mail, chrome, itunes, etc all taking normal amounts, 100MB each or so
    Whenever I close some windows to free up memory, it is quickly refilled by I don't know what.
    Is this strange behavior?
    Thanks,
    Grant

    Mavericks is designed to use RAM more efficiently than prior OSXs.  What you are observing is different from what you may have experienced but normal.  If you see green, all is good.

  • MBP RETINA logs me out!!!

    My Retina MacBook Pro is automatically logging me out while I am in the middle of using it!
    The past 2 days, I'll just be sitting here at my desk, when im not touching the mouse or the keyboard for a while, like watching a movie, and the next thing I know, I am being asked to log out and presented with my standard login screen.
    Anybody can help me ????

    Open the Security and Privacy pane of System Preferences and turn that option off.

  • My MBP recently started logging itself out.  I narrowed the problem to the external monitor which is connected with a Thunderbolt adapter. When I disconnected it, the problem went away.

    My early 2011 MBP laptop (OS Yosemite 10.2.2) recently started logging itself out.  I narrowed the problem to the external monitor which is connected with a Thunderbolt adapter. I installed Thunderbolt firmware update 1.2, that did not correct the problem. When I disconnect the external monitor, the problem went away. Is there something I can do to be able to use the external monitor again?

    Try Function F1

  • 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.

  • I am suddenly logged out from whatever program or app i am working on and i have to log back in.  one solution suggested is to reset or restore of my IOS software which is quite an involved endeavor.  anyone knows of the cause and simpler solution?

    i find that i am suddenly logged out of  program or an app or website, and i am back to the HOME screen.  i have to log back in and sometimes i find back exactly where i left off, some stuff i have entered or written,  or sometimes i have to start all over again and re-enter data or write back what i seem to have lost.
    i tried a different browser and it does not solve the problem.  i tried different  apps, website and programs and it happens anywhere and at any app, program or website. 
    apple staff suggested a complete restore of the IOS software, which is quite an involved process. does anyone know of any possible causes and a simpler
    solution without having to reset the entire IOS 7.0.6

    Hello Philly,
    I believe that when you reset your ipod(command given from the computer, right?)  touch WHILE the ipod was updating, It cleared the system in the middle of writing files, thus corrupting(equivalent of cutting of in the middle of a sentence) the basic running system.
    I suggest you go to an apple store and ask for a technical diagonosis in person. they may offer to help if the problem is fixable. If your ipod is still under warrenty, i would guess it would be free/low cost.
    ~Remember, I am just giving an educated guess on limited information

  • Retina MacBook Pro - Logging Out

    My Retina MacBook Pro is automatically logging me out while I am in the middle of using it!
    For the past 4 days, I'll just be sitting here at my desk, browsing the web, or working on an e-mail, and the next thing I know, I am being logged out and presented with my standard login screen. 
    I've seen 1 or 2 reports of this, and am wondering if a replacement is in order.  ?
    Specs and Details
    Retina MacBook Pro - 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7  (been using it for 2 weeks)
    RAM Upgraded to 16GB
    256GB Hard Drive
    Connected to a brand new Apple Thunderbolt Display. 
    OS X Lion 10.7.4 with ALL updates installed. 

    Hi, I experienced exactly the same when first using the new rMBP
    It seems that there is an issue with Lion that causing intermittent problems when switching between integrated and discreet graphic cards.
    You have 2 options:
    1. Upgrade to Mountain Lion - the problem is gone in ML thats for sure (and of course its designed for this beautiful new machine)
    2. If you still want to wait for a while, download gfxCardStatus and you decide whether to switch or stay just on discrete or integrated...this app works just fine too
    I was using option 2 to manage the issue, before upgrading....either solution worked for me.
    Good luck

  • Audio only coming out one side of headphone port - Retina MBP

    I bought a retina MBP a few months ago, and suddenly the headphone port only outputs to the right side. It does it with anything I plug in to it, so it's definitely not the speakers/headphones. It's also not the balance slider in the system preferences > sound menu.
    Does this mean it's a hardware problem? I'd hate to have to send it in for repair, but this is driving me crazy.
    Thanks for any help!
    edit: I've also already reset the SMC to no avail.

    System Preferences > Accessibility > Sound
    Make sure that "Play stereo as mono" is not enabled.
    Headphone jack fits in snug in the port?
    Tried resetting PRAM?
    If these steps do not help, you may have to contact Apple.
    Best.
