Why does my system restart with user logged in?

When I restart my computer, it comes back up with my account logged in.
I have logged out and restarted, and logged out, shut down and started, but stillt he same.
Why?
Can I change it?

Go to the Apple menu > System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Options. Make sure Automatic Login is set to Off.

    Why does macbook pro block and restart with the latest software update?

    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.
    In the Console window, look under the heading DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION on the left for crash or panic reports. If you don't see that heading, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". It may be under either of the two subcategories, "System" and "User." A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic".
    Select the most recent of each and post the entire contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post any other kind of diagnostic report, such as a hang log — they're very long and not helpful.

  • Why does a LaunchDaemon stop when user logs out?

    Hi,
    We have an application that uses an older version of Jetty that I am trying to configure as a LaunchDaemon on OS X 10.7.5
    I've created a org.mortbay.jetty.plist and placed this in the /Library/LaunchDaemons, set permission 644 and owner root:wheel. This can be loaded via launchctl and all is happy. I can connect to the server and browse the pages on the server. However, if I log out, the service stops responding and only starts responding when I log in again. It appears to stop jetty and then restart it when I log in.
    As this is being run as the root user, I would not have expected a user logout to stop this process. From what I can see there are no per-user overrides for this.
    Upgrading Jetty is not currently an option.
    Any help/ideas would be appreciated.
    Dave

  • Why does my Mac boot with a Grey screen and a globe?

    Why does my Mac boot with a Grey screen and a globe?

    Usually means you don't have a bootable system installed so the OS is looking for a bootable system on the network.
    Does the computer eventually start up shortly after the globe appears? If so then open Startup Disk preferences, select your boot volume and click on the Restart button. If this is not the case then you need to reinstall Snow Leopard.
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.

  • Why does my system hang on a blank software update screen after I shut down?

    Why does my system hang on a blank software update screen after I shut down the computer?
    This only happened after my computer attempted to download security update 2013-003 version 1.
    I have an iMac with a 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo running on OSX 10.7.5.
    I repaired all disk permission, and then verified and fixed the disk.
    My hardware diagnostics program gave all systems a green light.
    After all this, the system still hangs.
    This must be an operating system glitch.
    How do I fix it?
    If you tell me to reload the operating system, then I'll have to go retro with Snow Leopard.
    All subsequent updates were purchased from Apple on the Internet and downloaded.

    Not so. You use the recovery mode to reinstall Lion. Details in Recovery and About OS X Recovery. Also, see Computers using Internet Recovery.

    Why does the system chime sound whenever I open Reader 11 or a pdf document?

    Don't know. You can turn system sounds OFF in your control panel. XP it's under Sounds, Vista, 7 & 8 it's under Hardware and Sound.
    Click Change system sounds
    Select "No Sounds" to disable all windows interface sounds.

  • Why does a VRRP master with preemption disabled regain master state after the reboot ?

    Q: Why does a VRRP master with preemption disabled regain master state after the reboot?
    A: This issue is found in the following scenarios:
    1. When spanning tree is disabled on either of the VRRP controllers but enabled on upstream switch(es).
    2. When the controller(any one VRRP controller) and upstream device(s) run different versions of STP.
    3. STP convergence time is different across the VRRP controllers.
    In these scenarios, rebooted vrrp master is expected to come back as vrrp MASTER as the link takes some time to converge and fail to receive VRRP advertisement packets from its peer and may roll back to MASTER.
    Trigger for this is, since STP is enabled on intermediate switch and disabled on controller, switch is taking some time ~30 secs to converge the link while port on the controller has become UP and fail-over to Master due to 
    not receiving VRRP advertisement packets
    In all these cases, it is advised to enable holdtime to mitigate issue. Holdtime has been introduced to tackle this issue in the "preemption disabled scenario".
    Configuration via CLI:
    (controller) (config) #vrrp <id>
    (controller) (config-vrrp)#holdtime
    Description:
    The VRRP virtual router does not begin listening to advertisements until the holdtime expires. If your deployment includes a VRRP master with preemption disabled and an uplink switch is running RSTP, a higher value will prevent the VRRP master from regaining the master state after it reboots.
    Range: 30 - 120 seconds
    Default: 45 seconds

    Hey Jim,
    Thanks for the follow-up.  Here are some more details:
    OS - 10.8.2
    FCP X - 10.0.7
    I can't update either of these because of my Avid installation.
    Something else I didn't mention – this happens in a 4K project.  Notice how a default Zoom title looks:
    Lines 1 and 2 are almost stacked on top of each other.
    Here's my title style:
    Here's what the title looks after I apply the title style, modify Line 1, and remove the contents of Line 2:
    And here's how it looks in the exported master file MOV:
    Notice how it's pushed down?
    Then I decided to make a 720p project.  No more title problems.
    So if you have some 4K footage, Jim, give it a go.  Or if there's another 4K-er out there, try this and let me know.
    Thanks!

  • Why does a yield sign with an ! sign come up on some photos

    why does a yield sign with an ! sign in the middle come up on some photos

    That means iPhoto has broken the file path/link to the original image file. Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    iPhoto 8 (09) and earlier- run the options indicated
    iPhoto 9 (11) and later- run  Option #4 to rebuild the database
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 - download iPhoto Library Manager (iPhoto 8 or earlier or IPhoto 11 and later) and launch.
    2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the
    File ➙ Rebuild Library (iPhoto 8 or earlier)
    or
    Library ➙ Rebuild Library (iPhoto 9 or later)
    menu option to rebuild the library.
    4 - In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments.  However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.
