Sign Out not De-authorize

Just a heads up and a discussion in case people are wondering. I had to "de-authorize" a InDesign on a computer I'm selling from my Creative Cloud account. I went to InDesign's Help menu but didn't find "Authorize" or "De-authorize" listed. Instead there was a listing SIGN OUT [my email]. I chose that and got the message that the programs on that computer would no longer work. Couple of things I gathered from this.
#1 There is no Authorize command. I'm always signed in to Creative Cloud and that's what helps the CC find me to check if I've paid my bill and continue to use the software.
#2 The software did not get sucked off my machine. I could have kept the software on my machine and then, in a few months, if I needed it, sign in again. That would cause the machine to now be authorized. But I wonder, if, when I teach, could I
• sign out at home
• go to a corporation
• open their machine
• download InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator from CC
• sign in
• use them on that machine for a while
• when I'm leaving sign out
• go home
• use my software at home.

I second Sandee's apprehension regarding what might happen when doing some of these actions in Creative Cloud. Deactivating/reactivating, signout/signin, etc. are mysteries. Stuff like them often go wrong, and the paths to restorative help are often vague - whom and how to contact, for example.

I frequently get the messages "windows couldn't sign you out" (I am signed out) ,"not connected to in the internet" with prompts to sign in again (I don't) and "you're currently working offline", with a prompt to connect to my own locked wireless. None of these statements are true and I ignore the prompts (although my husband did re-sign on to our router once). I find that if I unplug the phone line and then plug it in again, it works. Strange. Is someone trying to get my password?

Photoshop Photography Program: sign in/sign out not working

I signed up yesterday for this program. Today I downloaded the Creative Cloud application. Now I am trying to download the lastest version of Photo Shop and Lightroom.
It tells me to sign in. I sign in and it says I signed out. Nothing works

Hi,
Please check whether the necessary Custom objects ( FM, ZTable ) are transported to production.
Also check the settings.
Best regards,

Multiple users in household, how do I simply sign out of an account and not delete the account?

I just got an iPad and am still figuring out its quirks. One thing that is completely frustrating me is that I am being told that I have to delete accounts instead of simply being able to sign out? I don't get it? For instance the Gmail app lets you switch between accounts but both are always signed in. Same with iCloud and Appleid's. I don't get it? I have multiple users at my house that use the same apps but we can't sign in and out as our respective selves? Is this an Apple thing? I haven't used Apple products since the mid 90's so I could just be out of the loop? Not being able to Sign in and out doesn't seem very logical to me so it makes me think that I must be missing a step because why on Earth would you not have that function? Help me understand. Please and thank you.

You are not going to like the answer, but no you cannot sign out of email accounts on the iPad. The iPad was originally designed to be a single user device that was to be used in conjunction with one's own iTunes library. That was back in 2010 when the first iPad was released. many things about the way you can use an iPad have changed, but it still designed to be a single user device.
Anybody can check email in a web browser on the iPad, just like one can check ther email on any computer by signing into their account, but the built in Mail app does not have separate user accounts. You can sign into and out of Apple ID's on the iPad but that is where Family Sharing comes into play.

I am signed into the App Store on my iphone 4 and one of my apps need updating and my brother was signed into it but its like its locked to his Apple ID I have tried signing out and turning my phone off its just not working

I am signed into the App Store on my iphone 4 and one of my apps need updating and my brother is signed into it because I didn't have any credit to make an ID so he signed in so I could download apps but its like its locked to his Apple ID I have tried signing out and turning my phone off its just not working please help.

Apps are locked to the Apple ID that was used to download them. You will have to sign in as your brother in order to update it.

I have changed my apple ID but cannot get my Mac computer to change it on iCloud. I have signed out but do not know how to sign back in with my new id.

I have successfully changed my apple ID and password, but cannot get my Mac computer to change it on iCloud. I have accessed system preferences, iCloud and sign out. But now I do not know how to sign in using my new id and password. I would like iCloud to work on my Mac so that it will sync to my iPhone and iPad. I have installed all of the latest software. How do I change this account on my Mac?

Do you have your Mac backed up?
If not, you should use Time Machine to back up your Mac to an external hard drive just "in case".
But if all you did was change your existing ID, then deleting the Calendar infomation from the Mac when you sign out should not be an issue. Since it is the same Apple ID, it is the same iCloud account (just with a different name), so your Contacts, Calendars, etc. are stored in iCloud. When you sign back in, you will have the option to sync Contacts, Calendars, Notes, etc. with iCloud - it should already be checked. Just sign back in, and your iCloud info will re-download to your Mac.
I just tried this, and all of my stuff showed up when I signed back in. Notes took a couple of seconds to load once I opened them, but they are all there.
Note: If you are signing on with a brand new Apple ID, then nothing will be downloaded because it will be an entirely different iCloud account. But if it is the same Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID with just a new email, then it will all be restored.

How do I sign out of iCloud on my iPad, I can only select the disable feature and I want to get the software back to pre iOS.8. My account tracker app will not sync now because the update was installed.

I Always down load the updates but now I find that my account App does not sync. I cannot seem to be able to revert my software back to the pre IOS 8.0 update.
on the settings page , I am only able to switch off the I cloud drive and not really signing off from the account.
I Would appreciate you advice.

I used this method yesterday and everything was done:
On your iOS device, open Settings menu then choose the Game Center menu.
Tap on the Apple ID (yellow line in the above image) menu then choose Sign Out.
You have done.

How can I delete my iCloud account when I have changed my Apple ID and cannot now sign out as do not have the original Apple ID and password.

I am unable to delete my iCloud account from my device. This is because I recently changed my Apple ID email/ username which now means when I try to delete my iCloud account to log back in with my new Apple ID I am unable to as it requests my old Apple ID username and password which no longer exist. i am on IOS 8.1. Can someone help me find a solution to this?

Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID. If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
Then 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. (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.) Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPad and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID). Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library). When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

HT204053 Can I set up two iCloud accounts on my IPAD3 at the same time? If not how do you sign out of one to sign in to another?

Welcome to the Apple community.
You can add more than one account to your iPad, but you can only have one primary account. Secondary accounts which you can add at settings> mail, contacts, calendars do not have all the features of a primary account such as photo stream.

When exiting Yahoo sideshow the program will not go back to the Yahoo mail and drops out the sideshow for future use unless I sign out of Firefox completly and re-enter. What needs to be done to correct this problem?,

Every time I use the sideshow feature of Yahoo Mail, it locks out the Yahoo Mail when I try to exit the sideshow feature and I have to sign completely sign out of Firefox to have the feature restored. Even using the refresh key, it removes this feature and causes it to act as though I am not authorized to view the feature. Is there something that I need to set?

I think the problem lays with Last.fm. I had the same exact problem as you. In your processes screen, end the task "lastfmhelper.exe" Last.fm still scrobbles. The tracks don't skip, although I notice there is still a bit of a lag in the first part of the song - but if you can deal with that, no skipping. I think you will have to end that task everytime you boot up your computer, or uninstall last.fm completely until they fix it; it is a bug in their software, as opposed to iTunes.

Download them to iTunes abd then sync the apps. Make an appointment with Apple and see what the problem is.

Since downloading IOS 5 Itunes keeps randomly opening up and popping up on my desktop screen, not just when I turn on computer but randomly even though I sign out of itunes. How can I stop this from happning

After installing ios5, itunes randomly opens up on my desktop on my laptop computer. Not just when I start my computer but when I'm on it. itunes just opens. I've searched settings in itunes and my desktop and don't know where to go to stop this from happening. itunes will just open. I've rebooted laptop and tried signing out of itunes and it still happens. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make this stop??

While it is clearly the wifi syncing that is causing it, the device almost never shows up in the device list, and I've already unchecked that box. I have two devices that I'd love to wifi sync, but neither show up today on the device list, despite iTunes continually popping up every 5 minutes or so. Buggy...
