I have a bunch of programs mostly printers that I don't use anymore that automatically start when I start my Mac. How do I stop them from auto starting?

go to system preferences->accounts->login items and remove what you need.

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.

Hello, HenryWang2103.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The Safari, Email and Notes applications are native to the iOS and is unable to be deleted. Since this is the case, they are either in a folder on the iPhone, on another page or Restrictions are enabled. You can also search for these Apps on the iPhone by touching the screen and sliding your finger down. Here is some information regarding these features. The information about folders is located in the user guide below.

How do i stop my programs from automatically popping up when i turn on the computer?

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.

How can i disable imessage from automatically starting up when i turn on macbook air?

how can i disable imessage from automatically starting up when i turn on macbook air? i dont know my imessages to pop up on my laptop when it turns on. But i dont want to disable imessage totally on my macbook.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
First of all, check that Messages is closed when you turn off your MacBook. This is so important because, by default, OS X will reopen all opened apps the next time you start your Mac.
Apart from that, when you go to  > Shut Down, or  > Restart, in the window you see to restart or turn off your MacBook, unmark "Reopen windows when logging back in". This will avoid that your Mac opens all opened apps the next time you start the MacBook, so Messages won't start automatically at startup

How to stop a program from automatically starting up at login..

Each of our children has an account on my computer. Recently my son has installed Skype using his account. It starts up everytime he logs in. I tried to disable this auto start up but I think I ran in to a bigger problem.
None of the other accounts are able to configure their own accounts (about half of all the other system preferences are also greyed out) and when I, logged in as the administrator, try to configure their accounts there is no 'Login Items' tab.
I tried it by looking for the 'StartupItems'-folder in all of the Libraries but there are none. The 'LaunchAgent' and 'LaunchDaemon' folders are in the System Library but are empty.
Maybe something is wrong with the preferences...
Anybody any ideas...??

icks and it's done!
The underlaying problem remains though (why can't I find any 'startupitems' folders. and why are two of the accounts not able to configure their own accounts?)
login items that you add from the dock or account preferences are handled differently. they are recorded in the file homedirectory/Library/Preferences/loginwindow.plist
this file is read at the login and items listed there are executed. deleting this file will clear the login items list.

Automatically starting mpdscribble when mpd is started

Hi there!
I want to have some program (mpdscribble) automatically started when I run another (mpd), but I don't want to start either of them as a service upon booting. Is there a way to go about this? I've googled my ass of but to no avail. Thanks!

You can make a simple shell script which starts both of them. Add that to your path and use that so start instead of the "mpd" command.
Something like this:
#!/bin/sh
mpd &

I want to upload some files from mobile phone to webserver? how? thanks!

The vibrating phone was created in Java. Some british company is selling the program to women for on the go fun. I'm pretty sure the actual code in the program is only a few lines.
Oh... you were talking to the other guy. He wants a java app to upload something to a JSP or database server.

My iTunes says I owe $5.25 for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for again but I want to get some apps from the store and now there's a hold on my account. Who do I talk to get the hold taken off

I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?

You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

You can only import photos from the camera roll into the computer. Is that the album that you are seeing?
Any albums that you create on the device itself (the iPad that is) cannot be transferred to your computer. iPad created albums do not contain copies of your photos but merely pointers to those photos so they do not actually exist in those albums.

HT1438 i can't open some programs from my ipad anymore

i can't open some programs from my ipad anymore, not even the general setting; and i can't update to higher version of the softwear, currently it's 5.1.1.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
