Is there an equivalent in Lion to the PC configuration system where you can choose which programs are startups , delayed or manual

Help, I want to be able to choose which programs I wan tot run at start up because after 6 months of usage it takes about 2plus minutes for a cold system to start up and 5 seconds to shut down. I wan tot speed up the startup and I think I have to many programs runnning at startup. On my PC I used to control that from sys config,is there an equivalent in Lion.

Go to System Preferences/System/Users & Groups. Click on Login Items and add or delete the apps as you choose.

  • Is Lion going to be offered on a disk similar to the previous operating systems where you can get a family pack? of like 5 instals?

    Is Lion going to be offered on a disk similar to the previous operating systems where you can get a family pack? of like 5 instals?

    You don't even need the family pack anymore!  Just use the same Apple ID to connect to the App Store on each computer and upgrade... pay for it once and you can use it multiple times.  According to the Lion page on www.apple.com, this is intended, and...
    According to the App Store OS X Lion 10.7 License Agreement Section 2 Paragraph B:
    B.  License from Mac App Store.  If you obtained a license for the Apple Software from the Mac App Store, then subject to the terms and conditions of this License and as permitted by the Mac App Store Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms and Conditions (http://apple.com/legal/itunes/ww/) ("Usage Rules"), you are granted a limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license:
    ( i ) to download, install, use and run for personal non-commercial use one (1) copy of the Apple Softward directly on EACH Apple-branded computer running Mac OS X Snow Leopard or OS X Snow Leopard Server ("Mac Computer") that you own or control;
    et al.
    This means that you can buy OS X Lion with your Apple ID, and any Mac you own (or have control over) that is legally defined by the license agreement can be connected by the same Apple ID and upgraded.
    Cheers.

  • Is there an app now (or in the process of creation) where you can make your own ringtone from a purchased song on iTunes?

    I want to be able to make my ringtone because not all songs are available as ringtones. Is there an Apple application that can make a unique ringtone? I've tried apps from the Store, but they sometimes get erased from my phone in Sync.

    You have been able to do this for years.
    Google will find several ways to do this.

  • How do I make a drop down list of text in numbers as it is made in the example spreadsheet for comparing cars for buying where you can choose a value from a dropdown list for each car?

    how do I make a drop down list of text in numbers as it is made in the example spreadsheet for comparing cars for buying where you can choose a value from a dropdown list for each car?

    Where is this example spreadsheet? Without seeing it I can only guess at what you are asking.
    To make a drop-down list (a pop-up menu in Numbers-speak), format the cell as a pop-up then edit and add to the list of items.
    If the example spreadsheet is pulling in a dollar value based on what car you chose in the pop-up, it is probably using LOOKUP or one of the other lookup functions, getting the information from another table (a lookup table). If, instead, these dollar values are what you are choosing in the pop-up, then you need to create a pop-up with these values in it.
    The Help menu includes a link to a page where you can download the Numbers Users Manual. It also has a link to the Formulas and Functions guide. Both are useful to new users.

  • Is there a way you can choose which files iCloud pushes to which devices

    I don't want iCloud to sync everything on all of my devices as that will just use up memory unnecessarily so is there a way I can choose what goes to which device? 

    Not if you mean for example, you want to upload contacts but not download them on the same device.
    But if you mean be able to upload contacts from one device but not download contacts on another, then that's what doing as I suggested in my first post will do.

  • Is there a license where you can choose different apps?

    Is there any possibility to get a creative cloud license with only Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign and Lightroom and pay for only those at a cheaper price than you pay for all the apps?
    Thanks!

    No.
    Options available:
    Full Cloud ($49.99/mo)
    Single App ($19.99/mo per app)
    Creative Cloud Photography Plan (PS+LR $9.99/mo)
    That's it.
    No Suites with select bundles of apps.
    If you need 3 or more apps then full Cloud is the best option.

  • After  i have upgraded to Lion OS, this computer has become the worst computer on this planet. Everything is so slow as if i am in 1990's, where you can click on something and take a coffee break. Constantly get errors on MS Outlook and all applications

    After  i have upgraded to Lion OS, this computer has become the **** computer on this planet. Everything is so slow as if i am in 1990 where you can click on something and take a coffee break. Constantly get errors on MS Outlook and all applications are taking for ever to open up. If you guys can't fix it i am going to throw this out the window. Completely fed up with this. Have always loved apple but this is the worst experience i have with the MacBook Air and its not even 1.5yr old.

    There are two ways to upgrade to Lion - one is to install Lion overtop of the existing Snow Leopard and the other is to erase the hard drive, install Lion, and then migrate your applications and user accounts. This second option takes a good deal longer than the first so the preferred method for most is the first method and in most cases it works fine. But not in all.
    captfred has told you what I'd start out doing if it were my computer. There's a good chance that you can identify an application or plug-in that's causing the problem. Upgrading the involved item(s) can solve the problem. Of all the Lion upgrades I performed I had a couple that weren't completely successful even though I'd looked for programs and plug-ins that needed upgrading first. I missed a few but I found them after the fact and had happy computers.
    There was one computer that still had problems. With this computer I reinstalled Lion right over the old version. (If you didn't keep a copy you'll need to download it first.) I still wasn't satisfied so with that computer I rebooted into the recovery partition (Command R after restarting) formatted the hard drive, installed Lion and then migrated. That did solve the problem.

  • I would like to know, on the ringtone page, where you can select songs out of your music library, is there a way to remove a song from the list after its selected? I would thin there would be a way to "delete" the songs from the list. (Clock app)

    I would like to know, on the ringtone page, where you can select songs out of your music library, is there a way to remove a song from the list after its selected? I would thin there would be a way to "delete" the songs from the list. (Clock app)
    Let me explain:
    In the clock app for ios 6.0.2 I am a little confused. It allows you to go into your music library, and create a ringtone using any songs you choose. However, I cannot find a way to remove a song from this list, just like I cannot delete one of the preset ringtones (which I'm not trying to do, but just as an example)
    Thanks for your time! If you need more information just ask.
    (I believe both my iPod and iTunes are up to date)

    I believe you just are able to delete them from iTunes.
    Hope it will be helpful

  • Apple should make something where you can enter your apple devices serial number and find where it is so that when its lost or stolen it can be retrieved easily, the only negative i can think of is people can be injured. Then again thers always lawyers

      My i pod touch was stolen about a week ago. Ive been looking for ways to find it and its been pretty hopless. I have owned 7 i pods in the last 5 years and they have all been stolen, I guess you could say im pretty unresponsiblle but I prefer to call it unfortunate. There should be some type of website where you can just type the serial # of your i pod and it could use google maps or something the track it down. I mean what age are we in, I'm sure if cars can drive them selves there should be no problem to construct an i pod traking app. I dont thing lawsuits are a good excuse either. America has the best justice system in the world and i dont think they be to agaist my idea. And if media were on our sides then CNN would on it like whie on rice. there word is very persuasive to people all over the world and everyone watches it. i know I'm just venting but something needs to be done to end the madness! I dont wana buy another I pod. i wana buy accessories for my i pod.

    Apple provides the Find My feature through iCloud for those that want to take advantage of it.  But to go further would most likely create invasion of privacy issues and raise legal concerns for Apple.  Only police have the statory authority to track and that requires court orders.  This comes up repeatedly when users loose objects, but Apple continues to say they do not track or attempt to find the lost objects.

  • Do you have to buy OS X Lion from the Apple Store or if you have just bought the Mac it will automatically be inside? Please Reply

    Everything is above, Please answer my question!:)

    Lion was released in July 20, 2011. Any NEW Mac sold after that date is entitled to Lion AFAIK. If you purchased yours from some seller that had it aging on the shelf since God-knows-when, contact Apple and see if you can get some sort of redeem code to download Lion from the Apple Store for free.
    Older used/refurbished Macs are entitled to the OS in force at the time of their manufacture and should come with the installation media as a condition of sale. Apple MAY provide you with replacement media for a cost, if at all. Lion upgrades will have a cost and the Mac must follow an upgrade path thru Snow Leopard before Lion can be installed via an online download.

    I'm guessing your problem is caused by code validation errors: orphaned division tags for example, or mismatched code and document type (i.e.  XHTML /> mixed with HTML > style closures).
    Start by using the code validation tools below and fix any reported.  You'll need an Internet connection for this:
    HTML Validator - http://validator.w3.org 
    CSS Validator - http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/  
    HTML & CSS Tutorials - http://w3schools.com/
    If this doesn't solve the problem, you will need to post a URL to your live page so we can see your code and images working together.   Or at the very least copy and paste your HTML and CSS code into a reply using double arrows >> Syntax Highlighting > Plain.
