I have a macbook pro and i get these random log outs. I have checked the scheduled timer and i don't have it on. Yet it random logs me out. Sometimes it does it, 4 or 5 times right in a row or just once every few days. Any thoughts?

Check to make sure that you aren't set to log out after a period of inactivity in System Preferences > Security. If that isn't set, do you notice a pattern or any particular trigger that might cause this? For instance, does it frequently occur when using a particular app or when pushing a particular (set of) button(s)?

there are no inactivity log offs. Like i said sometimes it'll do it about 5 times right in a row and other times just once. I could be just reading an article online and it'll do it while i'm not even pressing any buttons.
