How do I keep my passwords from automatically filling in when I put in my user name on facebook and gmail?
When Put in my user name on any site...my password automatically fills in....anyone who uses my pc could access my accounts if they know my email address.
This is better...but it still doesn't answer my question about why everything pops up as soon as I put in master password.I WANT TO BE LIKE IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING.ALSO WANT TO KNOW WHAT CAUSED IT!

how do i stop my programs from automatically popping up when i turn on the computer?
When you log out or shut down, there will be a checkbox that asks you if you want to reopen windows when you log in. Just uncheck this box. If that isn't it, you may have login items turned on. Go to System Preferences>Users and Groups and then under your name click the Login Itens tab. Make sure nothing is there.
If you want to stop windows from restoring when you open applications (so for example when you open Safari it doesn't open the 50 tab page you just had open when you quit) go to SystemPreferences>General and then hit the checkbox that says Close windows when quitting an application. -

In Lion, running on an I MAC, (late 2006), how can I stop certain programs (iTunes, Word) from automatically starting up when I start the computer?
Any application that is open when you shut down will re-open when you restart unless you deselect this when shutting down/restarting:
Also check System Preferences>Users & Groups>Login items tab and make sure there's nothing listed there that you don't want launched. -
When signing in to the internet using Firefox when I type in the first letter of my e-mail address it brings up the entire address which I click on an it fills in the blank. On my laptop at this point when it fills in the e-Mail address it automatically fills in my password; however, on my desktop it does not fill in the password, I have to type it in. I use Firefox on my laptop also so I don't know why it works on one system and not on the other.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Richard JakubecYou should try addon like Lastpass, read more about it here

When I put a picture file on my desktop (like a screenshot I want to email away), it is automatically whisked off into my user's Pictures folder.
How do I stop that annoying, unsolicited behaviour?
thx,The only 3d party apps are Hazel...
And that's your problem!
From the Hazel site's description:
Hazel watches whatever folders you tell it to, automatically organizing your files according to the rules you create.
Hazel, is a prefPane so you must have some rule (or it supplied the rule as a default) to put pictures (jpg's) from your Desktop (folder) into your Pictures folder.
Open your System Preferences and Hazel in there and either turn off Hazel or change or delete the appropriate rule covering this situation. -
I am trying to deauorize a computer from my itunes however when i enter my username and password it says its invalid.
Hi, amadorj.
It sounds like you may have some media purchased under another Apple ID. I would recommend finding the account name of the media that will not transfer and authorize the computer for that account. To find the account name, see the section labeled Authorize using the correct account name in the article below. Alternatively, you can either Right-Click and Get Info on the selected media for Windows or Control-Click and Get Info for Mac. The Apple ID that was used to purchase the media will be on the Summary tab.
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

How do I keep downloaded pdfs from automatically opening in Acrobat on a MAC?
I am downloading pdfs from FETCH on a MAC and they are automatically opening in Acrobat. How do I download and not have them open? There are literally hundreds of them.
Thanks,Hi Brian,
The Safari web browser contains a feature, enabled by default, which causes all files considered "safe" to be automatically opened once they have finished downloading. Safari considers the following file types to be safe:
- Pictures
- Movies
- Sounds
- PDF files
-Text documents
- Disc images (.dmg files)
- Other archive types
Although it can be convenient while enabled, this can be a very dangerous feature when it comes to your security. It can be disabled in a few easy steps.
> Open your Safari web browser by clicking on the Safari icon in the dock.
> Click on Safari in your Safari menu, located at the top of your screen. When the drop-down menu appears, choose Preferences.
> Select the General tab from the Preferences window, which is now overlaying your browser window.
You will now see a check box labeled "Open 'safe' files after downloading", located near the middle of the Preferences window. If this box is checked, click on the check mark and verify that it is no longer active.
Click on the red circle/x located in the top left hand corner of the Preferences window to complete the process. You will now be returned to your main browser window.
Hope this helps.
Regards,

How can I keep Time Machine from Automatically backing up any external drive connected
Problem: Whenever I have an external drive attached and TimeMachine starts, it tries to back-up the drive. Usually, this causes Time Machine to gut my TimeMachine back-ups to try and make room before saying, not enough space to complete the back-up. NOT Helpful! I maintain offline/offsite clones of my drives but I also receive drives with large amounts of data which I will want backed up AFTER I have copied it to my drives. Yes, I can go into TimeMachine and exclude the drive(s). If I forget to do that, then BYE BYE back-ups.
Ideally, I would like a prompt asking if I want to include the drive in theTimeMachine back-up after I connect it. Anyone know how to set this?
or
I would be fine with simply having TimeMachine treat all drives unknown to the backup as drives to be ignored.
Thoughts?perranegra wrote:
It worked beautifully before and would update only when I plugged the firewire drive in and also if I left it over 10 days it would remind me to back up the computer.
Right, the behavior hasn't changed between SL and Lion.
I would have liked the option to set times / days when I wanted.
SL didn't have this, any more than Lion does.
Also now I have a greyed out icon with a warning sign and clicking on the preferences it helpfully tells me the last back up has failed.
Because it DID.
I am usually happy with the updates and tweaks but this is one I am not happy and would appreciate a solution or at least a work around.... and no I don't like having the default to Time Machine as off!
Time Machine hasn't significantly changed between SL and Lion. Well, other than the local HD backup sets when a portable device is away from the actual backup destination, which really seem to freak people out for some reason. -
How do I keep the backlight from automatically turning off
I have an Ipod Nano Multitouch and the backlight turns off after about a minute and I have to press the awake/sleep button in order to do anything. Is there any way I can keep the backlight on for longer? I find it a pain to be constantly having to press buttons in order to skip a song, shuffle etc, especially when I am at the gym or out walking.
Thanks planb77, appreciate your answer.
I suspected that was the case, but thought it worth a shot asking. It would be much easer if one could just touch the screen to view the screen, rather than having to fiddle with buttons, espec when you're exercising!

When I scroll down and click a bookmark, the next time I open my bookmarks, it is reset at the very top again. Example, if I have 50 bookmarks with 1 at the top and 50 at the bottom, if I scroll down and click 40. It loads. Then I want to go to 42. When I click Bookmarks, it has 1 at the top again and I have to scroll all the way down to get to 42. It was not like this in Firefox 1-4. How do I revert to the old way? Is there an extension for that?
Maybe open the bookmarks in the sidebar: View > Sidebar > Bookmarks (Ctrl+B)
Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily if the Menu Bar is hidden. -
How do I stop sub-tools from automatically showing up when clicking a tool in the palette?
I must have clicked something or inadvertantly pressed a keyboard shortcut or something because a couple of weeks ago, the sub-tools on the tool palette started popping up without me having to hold down the mouse button for a second. Now when I click a tool (the rectangular marqee tool for example), the hidden tools (eliptical marqee, single row etc.). Please make it stop! It's annoying as hell.
I'm using PS CS5 on Windows 7.I don't believe there's any configuration option that changes that behavior, but I know what you're seeing has been discussed here before. Unfortunately, it might be difficult to think of the right terms to search for it. I don't recall if there was a specific fix or workaround found, though. I'm wracking my brain and I don't remember one.
Is there any chance you've gotten the right and left mouse buttons swapped? Do they pop up immediately when you click the right mouse button (as they should)?
Have you reconfigured your mouse double-click speed or any other mouse parameters recently?
Do you have an alternate mouse you can try?
Have you tried clearing your Photoshop preferences (by pressing and holding Control - Shift - Alt immediately after launching Photoshop)?

The download appears to work ,it extracts the files then a box comes up saying I can't run it as this user( with the name of my login),. gives me the option to check my login name or check administer with a password. I have tried both, I am the only administer on the computer. Using windows vista. I have searched and some of the things like turorials etc are on my computer but I can't get the actual browser to open and there is no shortcut for firefox. Currently I am using IE since chrome kept freezing up, so does IE.
