All of a sudden I constantly get logged out of all my accounts - since I work with multiple tabs open, this is driving me crazy and it's very time-consuming. I have all the latest updates so I'm perplexed. Any suggestions?
Exactly which OS X is installed ..
Please click your Apple top left in your screen.
From the drop down menu click: About This Mac
Which version do you see?
And check Safari as well. From your Safari menu bar click Safari > About Safari. Which version do you see?
Oh lord. I couldn't figure out how to reply--suddenly realized it's because I WAS LOGGED OUT AGAIN! Thanks for responding; it's OS X El Capitan v 10.11.4. Safari v 9.1.
I have an old computer--still dithering over whether to replace with a regular Mac desktop or a Mac Mini, but that's a different story. Still, this is a new problem.
Glad you could log back in !
Keep in mind not all websites allow you to stay logged in without activity including Apple Support Communities.
If you are actively using a website and still get logged out, go to your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab then click: Remove All Website Data. Quit and relaunch Safari.
If the same thing happens again, you may have a Safari extension or third party plug-in installed that's causing a conflict. It's easy to troubleshoot.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Uninstall one extension at a time, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.
Thanks so much! I'll try that next time I get logged out...which will probably be in the next hour. I have to work with so many tabs that it is quite the ordeal to restart everything.
Ok.. keep us posted.
Safari keeps logging me out -- help!
