ÜberFly Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Started happening a few weeks ago... After about 5 minutes on this site I automatically get kicked off without warning... I'm on an iMac, but my Macbook laptop doesn't have this issue... Anyone got any advice/suggestions?! Peter Quote

Suntoucher Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I use an iMac computer and can be logged on for days at a time until I remember to manually log off. Quote
ÜberFly Posted August 10, 2009 Author Posted August 10, 2009 That is what used to happen... Still happens with my Mac Book and my Dell at the office?! I didn't change any settings as far as I can remember... P I use an iMac computer and can be logged on for days at a time until I remember to manually log off. Quote
Flytyer Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Are you using both at the same time or intermitently without logging off? If yes then that's most likely the cause Quote
ÜberFly Posted August 10, 2009 Author Posted August 10, 2009 Nope intermittently with logging off in between!! P Are you using both at the same time or intermitently without logging off? If yes then that's most likely the cause Quote
Flytyer Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 Nope intermittently with logging off in between!! P No idea then....used to have this problem when we first moved here but it cleared after a bit. Quote
ÜberFly Posted August 10, 2009 Author Posted August 10, 2009 Marc, Safari - as I mentioned no problems using it with my Mac book... P Which browser are you using? Quote
headscan Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 A few things to try: Download Firefox and see if it exhibits the same behaviour See if the same problem happens with Safari on other forums Use the Disk Utility to verify and repair permissions Try creating another user account on your iMac and see if the problem still occurs Verifying and repairing disk permissions usually fixes most odd little problems like that for me. Did you recently upgrade to 10.5.8? Might be some weird issue with that. Quote
darrinhurst Posted August 10, 2009 Posted August 10, 2009 I have the same problem on my iMac. I haven't tried it with Firefox yet, maybe I'll give that a go. Quote
ÜberFly Posted August 10, 2009 Author Posted August 10, 2009 Marc, yeah might be the upgrade... Since it started around that time. I'm not a member of any other forums, so can't try that. I'll run a the disk utility. I have Firefox, but don't use it all that often. If it comes to it, I'll try creating another account, but hopefully it won't come to that. Thanks for your help.

SilverDoctor Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 I'm on Firefox and have no problems at all on any of my macs at home or work including my iTouch. Don't much care for Safari. Quote
