Safari/E-mail problem. Can't log out!

We've just purchased our first Mac and so far everything has been great. A problem we've encountered is with our email accounts. We both go to the same school, so we both use the same email that the school provides. However, even when one of us clicks 'Logout', closes the browser and then tries to login in as a different user it still takes us to the first person's email account without prompting for a login. The only solution we've found is to shutdown or restart and then we will be prompted to login.
Anyone have this same problem or have any suggestions/fixes for a new Mac user?

Click the Apple icon, then Force Quit. If Mail is listed as Not Responding, force quit it.

    I can't log out or shut down my mac as the mail isn't working. I can't open the mail and when I try to shut down so that I can open the computer again, it says I cannot log out as the application mail cancelled the logout.

    This worked for me too, by the way, for anyone wondering if it does.

    I have a similar problem: I switched from mac mail to Outlook 2011 as the default client, and want to switch back. Mailto links (eg from browser etc) default to Mail.  However, when I try to email a Word document as an attachment, it continues to open Outlook.  Outlook has a button in its prefs for making it the default client, but I don't see a way to turn this pref off in either Outlook or in Word.

    These files were lost two years ago.
    That's not consistent with what you wrote in your first message. I can't help you unless I know what's going on. Either you do, or do not, have backups of all the data you want to keep. If you do not, then the first thing you need to do is back up those files. It makes zero sense to do anything else. In order to back up, you'll need either of two things: another Mac, in working order, with a FireWire port and enough space on its internal drive to hold your files; or an external drive, also with enough space.
    On the other hand, if you do have backups, or if you simply don't care about any of the data, then the solution to your problem may be quite simple. All you have to do is boot from your installation disc (your profile says you're running Mac OS 10.5), erase your internal drive, reinstall the Mac OS, then restore your data from backup. You will need to be selective in restoring software, because incompatible software may be what caused the issue.
    But it's also possible that you have a hardware failure, in which case you can't get your computer working again until it's repaired.

  • I can't log out of Creative Cloud

    My friend was using my computer and put his log in information into my Creative Cloud
    Now if I go to Preferences > Account, I see his log in but the option for "Sign Out From Creative Cloud" is grey, I'm unable to click on it
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck, I still can't log out of his account. Please help

    Solution:
    I just spoke with someone on the "Install Team" about this and here are the steps to fix the problem.
    Open "Activity Monitor" and click on "Adobe Daemon" then click "Quit Process".
    Click on "Adobe Creative Cloud" or "Creative Cloud" and then click "Quit Process".
    Then while in the "Finder" in the Apple Menu bar at the top of your computer click on "Go" to open the dropdown and click "Go to Folder"
    You will get a window with a field, type "~/Library", open the folder "Application Support", open the folder "Adobe", find and trash the folder "OOBE"
    Go back to the "Finder" in the Apple Menu bar at the top of your computer click on "Go" to open the dropdown and click "Go to Folder
    You will get a window with a field, type "/Library", open the folder "Application Support", open the folder "Adobe", find the folder "caps" and rename it "caps_old"
    Launch the Creative Cloud app again and you should be prompted to sign in.
    This worked on my desktop running Lion OS 10.7.5 and on my laptop running Yosemite OS 10.10.1
    If you want to call Adobe and have them walk you through it call 1-800-833-6687. My call took about 24 minutes and I allowed them to remote control my desktop using "Join me" which is a "Logmein" product.

  • Logged on, but forgot my password so I can't log out

    I am looged on currently and in system preferences. However, I can't remember my old password so that I can change my password. Thus, I can't log out until I fix this problem.

    Resetting User Password in Lion, Mountain Lion & Mavericks
    Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
    When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
    In Terminal, type:
    resetpassword
    ...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
    Good luck,

  • I need to change my iCloud email address.  I changed it for my Apple id but I can't log out of iCloud to change it there.  Find my iPad is activated so I can't delete my iCloud account.  I don't have the email address the iCloud login has anymore.

    I need to change my iCloud email address.  I changed it for my Apple id but I can't log out of iCloud to change it there.  Find my iPad is activated so I can't delete my iCloud account.  I don't have the email address the iCloud login has anymore so I can't have the password sent there.  To sum it up, iCloud has an old email for the account log-in.  I don't remember the password for the old email.  I have Find My iPad activated so the iCloud account cannot be deleted.  And I am already logged out of iTunes & App Store. 

    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • Can't log out of iCloud on iOS7?

    I created a new iCloud account separate from my family's on my laptop. I'm logged into my phone with the same email as the new iCloud account, but the iCloud account is still the old one and the email address is grayed out so I can't change it. I tried logging in/out of mesages/facetime on my phone like I've read other people recommend but nothing changes. I tried plugging my phone into iTunes but still nothing. I can't log out off the iCloud account because the only option is to "delete account", but it's not solely my account so I can't do that either.
    Any ideas?

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • I have 2 iphones, one for personal and one for business.  I need my phones not to sync otherwise they will both ring all the time.  How can I log out of my icloud and unsync my phones?

    I have 2 iphones, one for personal and one for business.  I need my phones not to sync otherwise they will both ring all the time.  How can I log out of my icloud and unsync my phones?

    Syncing your phones to the same iCloud account won't cause them to both ring all the time, it only puts the same contacts, calendars, and other synced data on the phone.  The phones will only ring with someone calls the number associated with the phone.
    If you want to stop using iCloud on one or both of the phones, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then choose Keep On My iPhone when prompted.  This will disconnect them from iCloud and keep a copy of the synced data on the phone.

  • Can I log out from my Mac using Terminal.app?

    Is there a command I can issue in Terminal.app to log myself out? I'm just looking for a command-line equivalent of Apple >> Log Out. I would like to script this action so I can add it to my dock. Thanks.

    Hi--
    I wasn't able to find a way to completely log out via the Terminal (i.e., quit all apps and go back to the login window), though I did find a way to suspend the current login session (your apps are still running when you come back, much like with fast user switching):
    <pre class="command">/System/Library/CoreServices/Menu Extras/User.menu/Contents/Resources/CGSession -suspend</pre>
    You can also log out via AppleScript:
    <pre class="command">tell application "System Events" to log out</pre>
    Just save it as an application and put it on your Dock. I didn't do much testing, though, so I don't know if it'll quit your apps for you cleanly. Basically, I just got to the point where the dialog came up and left it at that.

    I just bought this ipad and cannot log out from icloud because i dont have the password.how can i log out from icloud?need help

    You need to return it to the seller and get your money back.  You cannot reset or use the device with another AppleID installed unless you know the password for that ID.
    If the device has been jailbroken, no one on here can give you any further help...the Terms of Use prohibit us from doing so.
