Any way to start up with applications and files open when shutdown?

I usually just put my Power Mac Tiger 10.4.11 to sleep when I'm finished. But sometimes if an electrical storm is pending I like to shutdown but sometimes I have so many applications and files open I hate to. Is there anyway, maybe even with third-party software, that I can completely shutdown without closing anything and start up later and have all apps and files reopen??

I don't know if this works in 10.4.11...

But I did read about it working on other than Laptops...
OS X only has only one "sleep" option. You cannot change its name, but to change its behaviour, I use SmartSleep on a Mac mini (though in the MacBook-like "sleep & hibernate" mode). It works for a mini, though the website only refers to MacBooks.

If yours happens to have a hidden hibernate function...

  • The way folders, applications, and files open under OS X Yosemite

    I have recently come back to Mac after using only Windows for 15 years. I LOVE my new iMac, but am finding one thing extremely annoying.
    Whenever I open a folder, application, or file, the contents are displayed as they were when I last closed it. For example, the first item may not be displayed on top (the window or file is scrolled down), a sub-folder may be open so that its contents are displayed as well, etc. I find this PARTICULARLY annoying with iPhoto (I want to start at the top of an album every time I access it).
    I would like my folders, applications, and files to open as they do the very first time they are opened EVERY time. Is there any way to make this happen?

    You could move them back to the beginning before you close them.

  • Any Way to "Start Over" With New Mac Pro?

    Hi,
    I just got a new Mac Pro yesterday and did the Migration Assistant to transfer my files from my old G4. However, when it first came up and asked in Setup if I wanted to transfer, I wasn't quite ready (didn't have the old computer connected yet) so I chose to do it later. When I did get connected and did the transfer (and waited SO "patiently" overnight for it to finish!) - I discovered it had not done what I wanted! I wanted it to incorporate my old computer's info into my main Account on the new computer, but it created a 2nd account instead!
    At this point, I don't know whether to keep it like this or try to start over. But my question is - is there some way to "reset" the new Mac Pro to start all over and let me do the transfer within the Setup so it will keep everything in just one account? (Short of reinstalling the whole OS from scratch, that is.)
    Thanks!

    Install your applications fresh, don't migrate.
    If you have a FW drive, that is one way, sneaker net works fine. Assume you don't have an SATA drive from the G4 (if you did it would need to be reformatted).
    I would never update or alter the system without first making a backup, but reinstall from DVD should be fast. It can be even faster if you restore the DVD to a small 12GB partition and boot off that, install takes under 10 minutes!
    I've seen on MacFixit a tutorial on how the method you used does create a 2nd account, which is why I would have the drive directly connected.
    You can also use a program to synch your home folder. I did everything manually, by hand, went through home preferences really carefully and pruned out any old stuff.

  • After quitting FF 8.01 on a Mac with OSX 10.5, restarting the Mac then starting FF, the offer to Restore Previous Session is grayed out. Is there any way I can recover the list of pages open when FF was last quit?

    Had about 15 windows w/ tabs open. System was a little sluggish and had not been rebooted in weeks so I Quit FIREFOX. Restarted the Mac, then FIREFOX. Option to Restore Previous Session was grayed out. I haven't used that computer since, hoping not to overwrite record of previous session.
    I've used the Restore Previous Session feature many times before without any problems.

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

  • Any way to distribute a javafx application with embedded JRE as a standalone?

    Hey,
    I'm looking for a way to distribute my javafx app, but I want a customer to be able to run it as a standalone (i.e. without installation).
    I know I can distribute a jar file but it's without the embedded JRE.
    Only way I see to embed a JRE is via building an installer.
    Any way I can distribute say an EXE file that when double clicked just runs the app with JRE embedded inside?

    I have already read that guide.
    Here's the relevant section:
    Table 3-1 JavaFX Execution Modes
    Execution Mode
    Description
    Run as a standalone program
    The application package is available on a local drive. Users launch it using a Java launcher, such as java -jar MyApp.jar, or by double-clicking the application JAR file.
    Launched from a remote server using Web Start
    Users click a link in a web page to start the application from a remote web server. Once downloaded, a Web Start application can also be started from a desktop shortcut.
    Embedded into a web page
    JavaFX content is embedded in the web page and hosted on a remote web server.
    Launched as a self-contained application
    Application is installed on the local drive and runs as a standalone program using a private copy of Java and JavaFX runtimes. The application can be launched in the same way as other native applications for that operating system, for example using a desktop shortcut or menu entry.
    According to this, only way to use a private JRE is via the 4th option which means installation.

  • How to save a list of open applications and files?

    Many times I need to turn off my computer but I have many things open. A friend tells me to use <sleep> but sometimes I have to still turn off my computer for a reason. Is there a way to create a list of all the open applications and files that when I turn on my computer I know where I last worked? Maybe there is a way to do this automatically without writing down on paper? My english is not the best and I am sorry. Thank you.

    Thank you Smokerz and ademsemir. I like alot both ideas that you have. Sometimes I will use one and sometimes I will use the other one. Maybe I can explain better what I am thinking to do. If I have 4 applications that I am using and different files in applications I hope to make a list of everything. I use Excel, Word, Preview, and Mail all the time. If I leave open emails when I close Mail then the same emails will open when I run Mail the next time. That is perfect for me. Excel, Word, and Preview only show the recent files I use if I close the applications and use them later. If I use shiftcommand4 it helps me alot because I click on Window and take a picture of the open files. I like shiftcommand3 also it helps if I use Expose and take a picture of the screen but the files with long names will cut off.
    I try also Activity Monitor and Force Quit because they show me applications that I use but they do not show the files. If I have alot of things open in Firefox that I will use again but do not have time I use Bookmark All Tabs.
    It is ok if you do understand what I ask. What you told me will help me. Thank you.

  • Hi, I am trying to update an iPhone 4 from iOS 4.3.3 to iOS 7.0.4, and every time I try to update it comes up with an error message saying that there was a problem because the network connection was reset. Is there any way I can get past this and update?

    The full message said:
    There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "Judy's iPhone 4". The network connection was reset.
    Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later.
    I am trying to update the iPhone for my grandmother, Judy, as I am leaving for Paris on Wednesday night and we want to have Facetime installed on her iPhone before then, so we can stay in contact with each other. It is the simplest way for this to happen but the program simply will not allow me to update her iPhone.
    Is there any way to get past this error and update her iPhone? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Dear Jody..jone5
    Good for you that can't update your iphone because I did it and my iphone dosen't work for example I can't download any app like Wecaht or Twitter..
    Goodluck

    Thank you. I have heard of Logic Pro 7, but I have never personally used it. I'm still growing in the world of Composition, and I know that it is something I will be studying in one of my Computer Music classes coming up for my degree. I think it is something I will look into getting once I can justify the price of it. I guess for the time being, I will continue to play and grow in my ability to use and take advantage of GB, and then see what I can do about or with Logic Pro when I'm ready. The thought of spending $1000 for a program is hard to bite, because I've already spent a lot to produce my music, not only electronic music, but also chamber music and so on. I had no idea it would be so expensive to dive deep into the world of composition! lol.
    Finale 2007: $500
    Sibelius 4: $500
    Jam Packs: $400
    Midi Keyboard Interface: $100
    PowerBook: $1700
    Printer for printing scores and analysis: $150
    Logic Pro 7: Oy!
    As you can see it adds up very quickly...that doesn't even include my personal instruments and study materials.
    Thank you for your input, as I haven't really worked much with LP, and therefore didn't know which features are available. I will talk with some of my Composition buddies, and professors and see what they have to say as well, and who knows, I may be able to get the express version through one of them.

    Any way to start up a new iPad without using the pc that has iTunes loaded. My pc was stolen in Italy and I am still in Europe.

    So you don't have the cords I assume and the battery is dead?  If you already installed songs, apps and other stuff via itunes you should be fine.  Just buy or use the cords you received.  You may need to buy the electrical adapters for EU connections.
    Sorry to hear about the PC.

  • Is there any way to contact verizon with a detailed cell phone technical support question?

    Is there any way to contact Verizon with a detailed cell phone technical support question?  I prefer e-mail so as to provide details (like I am trying to provide here).  I have tried in-store personnel (no help at all) and the web chat - they just want to see me more data instead of helping me with my basic problem!
    I CAN NOT GET ANYONE FROM VERIZON TO GIVE ME ANY HELP NOR CAN I FIND A WAY TO FILE A COMPLAINT.  AT THIS POINT I JUST WANT TO DROP MY VERIZON ACCOUNT BUT I'M SURE THAT IT WILL COST ME A SMALL FORTUNE TO GET OUT OF IT.
    Here is my issue:
    Chat transcript removed as required by the Verizon Wireless Terms of Service
    BELOW IS A SCREEN COPY FROM REDDIT ABOUT SOMEONE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH A VERIZON CELL PHONE
    So last night my RAZR MAXX HD did something totally bewildering by spontaneously downloading 2.6 GB of data over the course of ~ 3 hours. Fortunately I was able to catch this problem before it ended up being really expensive, but I still exceeded my 2 GB data plan by 600MB.
    The Culprits:
    Reddit News Free: 160 MB foreground / 0.96 GB background
    Android OS: 0 MB foreground / 1.18 GB background
    Several unnamed applications: ~ 350 MB
    Screenshots:
    The massive data spike
    Android OS data usage
    Reddit News Free data usage
    Weird unnamed processes
    Detailed timeline:
    5:12 PM: Incident begins according to VZW data usage website (2.60410 GB used). This is around the last time that I used my phone at the laundromat before getting dinner and watching Game of Thrones.
    8:04 PM: 50% of data allowance used (txt msg)
    8:31 PM: 75% of data allowance used (txt msg)
    8:58 PM: 90% of data allowance used (txt msg)
    9:13 PM: 100% of data allowance used (txt msg)
    10:05 PM: Got the text messages and immediately put the phone into airplane mode
    10:30 PM: Took screenshots
    10:45 PM: Enabled wifi, installed Kaspersky premium. Scan returned no threats.
    11:00 PM: Left phone in airplane mode, went to sleep.
    The questions:
    What was the root cause of this issue? Did Reddit News freak out as a result of an esoteric bug or was my phone hacked?
    If this was a simple Reddit News bug, then why was the Android OS also trying to use such a massive amount of background data?
    What the hell are these unnamed numeric applications? I've inspected my process history and this is the first time they have ever attempted to use data.
    I'm pretty sure that I can explain this situation to Verizon and get out of having to pay additional data usage fees, but I would like to know more about the problem before I get in touch with them.

    All I can think is your phone may have background downloaded an OTA update, and you'd then be prompted with something like, "As update to your Android system has been downloaded, would you like to install it now?"
    I do find it very odd that the update would be 2.6GB. As a rough base, the CyanogenMod 10.1 firmware for your device is well under 200MB, so unless Verizon has a ****-ton of bloatware in the update, or it had to attempt to download multiple times for some reason, it may be a stretch.
    But doing a little homework, it looks like the Verizon Razr Maxx was updated to 4.1 in late March. Maybe they're still rolling it out in waves? Have you gotten the update yet?
    Edit: Aaaand I just noticed you appear to be running an AOSP-based ROM, which totally rules out a carrier update being sent out.
    Edit2: If you want to live dangerously, you could try running:
    #kill -9 12289
    That 12289 is the PID listed in your screenshot. But don't run that without fulling understanding the kill command.
    The ps command could also be of use, but probably not.

    I can confirm that the phone is currently at 4.1.2 and that I wasn't prompted for an OTA update.The fact that both the Android OS and Reddit News processes were simultaneously using an extremely large amount of data is unlikely to be a coincidence...

    That is very curious that the spikes happened at the same time.I'm curious. It may have put at least some of that 2.6GB somewhere. You could use a data visualizer tool to see if you can find it, which may lead to more clues.

    The largest directories are:
    DCIM: Normal looking photos (90,825 KB)
    Android: Primarily map cache data (64,846 KB)
    If it was downloading content then it did not significantly save content to storage. It's not like I have anything particularly sensitive on the phone, but the idea that it was uploading a snapshot of my data definitely makes me uncomfortable.

    Yup, Digital Camera IMages and videos.Somewhere in /sdcard/Android would be my guess as to where a mysterious file would be downloaded, but if it's only 64MB, and mostly map data, I'd safely rule it out.I'm sorry, but I'm stumped here.Edit: I should mention I don't think this is malware, because unless a malicious app gained superuser access, any data it used would show under it's own apk in the data usage list, not Android OS.

    Although I'm not really up to speed with the Android platform, I come from a UNIX background so I feel comfortable running commands. How do I pull up a bash terminal? Do I need to root the phone first?

    [–]omgmrjmako/PA, deb/Carbon 2 points 1 year ago
    There's a number of terminal emulators in the Play Store that work well. You don't need a rooted phone to get to the shell as your user, but any privileged command won't execute unless you can grant it permission from the Superuser app that is installed when you root the device. So you could probably do a ps -e, but not a kill -9.

    Got it. I downloaded a terminal emulator but unfortunately those processes no longer exist.Does Android keep a generic log of system level events like /var/log/syslog?

    [–]omgmrjmako/PA, deb/Carbon 2 points 1 year ago
    I don't think so, and I know you'd need superuser permission to read most of the files in /var/log anyway. I'm not super familiar with how Android does its logging, but I do know that the two files of interest are the logcat and dmesg.

    Want to mention here that using your settings to set your data cap (set it on your billing day), then you won't go over again.Those text messages are really unhelpful, as they send out well after the data has been used. Chances are good you hit close to the 2GB mark before you received the bulk of the messages.
