Automatically start photos slideshow when locking iPad

Hi,
We have a bunch of corporate iPads which are used in a marketing/client setting. They may be sitting around often unused in a corner.
So rather than sit with a blank dark page, what would be really useful is that whenever the iPad goes into auto-lock mode after a few minutes then the photo viewer starts automatically to shuffle through some marketing photos. Just like what can be activated manually at the lock screen.
Does anyone know if this is doable?
Thanks

Hi,
Unfortunately there is no way. You could make a video in Quicktime format and save in your library, then you can rotate and display what you want. It would be a way out.
greetings,
Eduardo

Automatic start of slideshow

How can I make my ipad start showing a slideshow automaticly when not used for a while and keep it running until I manually turn it off?

There is no 'timeout' setting that you can use to say 'after x minutes of inactivity display photos'. So you can either go into the Photos app and start a slideshow from there, or press the sleep button twice (once to lock the iPad and then again to display the unlock screen) and then press the flower icon that appears to the right of the 'slide to unlock' (the flower won't appear if you havn't got any photos) - that will leave the iPad locked but will turn the iPad into a digital photo frame. You can set whether photos are shuffled, and how long they are displayed for, in Settings > Picture Frame (or Settings > Photos for slideshows via the Photos app)

Prevent start of Slideshow when pressing play/pause on keyboard

Hello,
Does this annoy anyone else? You have music playing in itunes and are working happily in iphoto and then phone rings for example. You automatically hit the pause button on the keyboard to stop itunes, but instead it starts a slideshow of the images in the current window - and keeps itunes playing.
Is it possible for the play/pause button only to work with itunes.
This might also be the case in imovie but I am not certain.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There are two iApps that take control over those buttons when they are the top window, iPhoto and Keynote. Even though iDVD has play buttons it doesn't. Don't know if that's an oversight or by design. Be sure to give feedback to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

How turn off Photos autostarting when connecting iPad

When I connect my iPad Mini 3 (iOS 8.3) to Yosemite 10.10.3 over USB, my MacBook Pro always starts Photos.
How do I turn off Photos autostarting?
My iPad is a test bed for apps, so Photos always comes over my Xcode screen when I least want it
Besides, there is no pictures on the iPad to sync anyway
I've been looking in the manuals and on the forums here, to no avail. That is why I turn to you.
Thanks, Eburon

I found the answer, so I'd happily share it:
Follow these steps to turn off iPhoto’s auto-startup when you connect your iOS device to your Mac:
Connect your iOS device to your Mac via your Lightning or 30-pin sync cable. (iPhoto will open one last time, go ahead and close it.)
Open the Image Capture app. (It’s in your Applications folder.)
Click on your iOS device in the left-hand pane.
At the bottom left of the Image Capture window, you’ll see a pull-down option allowing you to select what happens when your connect this iOS device to your Mac. (You may need to click the tiny “up” arrow in the lower left corner before you see this option.)
The top option is “No application.” Click that option to select it.
Close out the app. iPhoto should no longer pop-up every time you connect you iOS device to you Mac.
With special thanks to Kirk McElhearn, (via The Loop), for the original tip and Chris Hauk for making me find it on Google.

How to undo the automatically start program to when a user logs on

I have followed this following directions (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc736643%28v=ws.10%29.aspx#BKMK_TSC) :
"Using Terminal Services Configuration
Open Terminal Services Configuration.
In the console tree, click Connections.
In the details pane, right-click the connection for which you want to specify an initial program, and then click
Properties.
On the Environment tab, under Initial program, select
Start the following program when the user logs on. This option allows you to configure an initial program for the connection.
If you select Do not allow an initial program to be launched. Always show desktop, then Terminal Services cannot start a specified initial program automatically when a client connects to a terminal server. Instead, the user must start programs
by using the default desktop that is displayed during the Terminal Services session.
If you select Run initial program specified by user profile and Remote Desktop Connection or Terminal Services client, then the program that is specified in the default user profile and in Remote Desktop Connection or the Terminal Services
client will run when the client connects to the terminal server.
If you selected Start the following program when the user logs on, in
Program path and file name, type the path and file name of the program that you want to start when the user logs on to the terminal server.
In Start in, type the working directory path for the program, and then click
OK."
the problem is that now all of the server users get the specific program automatically starts when logged on and i cant undo it because i cant get to the desktop or to the "tscc.msc"
is there a way to fix it?

How can I automatically include photo descriptions when creating a book through iPhoto so that I don't have to type them all again?

I am scanning hundreds of old photographs onto my iMac and including descriptions when I import them to iPhoto. When I have created a book as a test, the photo descriptions are not automatically included. I don't want to have to add captions to the book I've created so how do I automaticaly include each description with the photograph?

There are no themes that automatically add descriptions that have been added to the photos. The Folio theme will pickup the file name and user name of the account
but not the description.

Automatic start of iTunes when i connect the iphone

can I configure iTunes to start automatically on connecting an iPhone?

You described exactly how to do it. Simply connect the device and then deselect the option to launch iTunes when the device is connected.
There is also an option in Edit > Preferences > Devices to prevent iDevices from syncing automatically.

How can I set the audio conference to automatically start AS HOST when the meeting starts?

I can easily setup an audio conference for any meeting, and set that conference to start. However, there doesn't seem to be a way for the conference to start as the moderator (or, host) when the meeting starts. This means I still have to dial in to the conference with a land line or cell phone and enter my host code to get the audio conference started.
The only audio conference provider at my company is The Conferencing Center. I don't seem to have a TCC account. What do I do to get this working? It's nuts to have to use a land line just to get the audio going.

There are a number of integrated audio providers other than TCC, and those can be enabled in the Admin section of Connect. However, using the fully integrated bridge does still require that a Host/Leader be dialled in before audio will broadcast (or something other than hold music).
If you don't want to have to call in, I'd recommend that you use Universal Voice to tell Connect the dial in steps and give it the Host/Leader pin.Setting Up Universal Voice - Adobe Connect User Community.
The downside to this is that there will no longer be a dial out option for participants.

How do I turn off the feature in iTunes that automatically starts up iTunes when I press the mic button on my headphones?

Okay, so I guess the mic button in my headphones is broken and so it acts like I have pressed it even though I have not. So everytime I have my head phones plugged in itunes shows up and everytime I try close out or pause iTunes, it just starts right back up again and I have to do this constantly. My temporary solution was to just turn my iTunes volume all the way down but it still pops up with notifications that says a song is playing. It is gettin annoying because I cannot watch Netflix or anything else without getting itunes pop ups. I was just wondering if there was any way to disable the feature?

The mic button is probably sending a signal (or command) that works like a keyboard shortcut to open the app.
System Preferences>Keyboard - under the Shortcuts tab, clear ANY iTunes shortcuts that appear in the list.

My Ipod Freezes When I Plug It In My Cpu...What Do I Do!!!!!!!

How may i forbidden that movies automatically start with sound when the mouse run on images

Every thing is in the title

It's rather unintuitive, but start a video playing and click the "shrink" icon in the on-screen control bar (right end, the two facing arrows) to reduce the playback from full screen down to a window. Then go to the View menu, select "video playback", and set it to "in iTunes Window" or "in separate window" as you prefer.

Can't find photo's when trying to sync ipad to itunes

can't find photo's when sycing ipad to itunes

I also am having problems. I have the newest ipad (4 and mini both) and also all software is up to date. My itunes is 11.0.5 which is the most up to date version. First off my ipad has over 7 GB of photos on it which is taking up too much space. I want to delete my Photo Library which is apparently all photos off my laptop that got synced to my ipad. The ipad itself will not allow a delete option in this Photo Library. Additionally the new version of itunes does NOT have a Photo tab or option to click or otherwise which photos to sync. It's as if photos through itunes was removed in their new software version. Anyway...... I can not delete or remove from my ipads the photos that came from my main computer.... the only photos able to be deleted are those that I actually took from my ipad. This is also true for my husbands iPhone 5.... Please help Thank you

Disabling iTunes from automatically starting when Headphone plugged in

Hi, I have a Macbook Pro running OS X Yosemite Ver 10.10.1. Whenever I plug in my Apple headphone it in, the iTunes automatically starts and I would like to disable the same. Some times its very much annoying where in, even if I am talking on FaceTime using my head phone, (I am guessing some small movements of headphone triggering this) the iTunes starts automatically and the songs start to play during the FaceTime call.
Does any one know how to disable the iTunes from not starting up automatically, whenever a Headphone is inserted into Mac. I can start iTunes whenever I want like any other application. But I just don’t want any automatic starting of iTunes, when I plug the headphone! Appreciate any help in this regard. Thanks!

I think the following solution seems to work:
+ Go to the  - System Preferences - Users and groups //Need admin privilege and unlock to edit etc.
+ Remove iTunes from Login Items
+ Click Login Items
+ then select iTunes Helper and then the - to remove the application
+ Force quit the iTunes if it was already running
Problem did not seem to reoccur in my case. I have not restarted the mac but it seemed to work! Try yours and update please.

Automatic start with JWS/JNLP

Hi all,
Is it possible to use JWS/JNLP to automatically start my application when the computer start or when the Windows session is opened, and how ?
Thanks,
Xavier

You should be able to approach this just as you would with an applet. Just write an applet that interacts with your servlet and then you can write a JNLP file for the applet using the <applet-desc> tag.

Automatic start of dbconsole during boot

Is there an easy way to automatically start the dbconsole when a cluster node boots (unix) ? I don't mean putting "emctl start dbconsole" in a rc Skript. I would prefer an integration in clusterware.

Sure, there are several steps but it's not impossible.
Step 1 build application VIP
crs_profile -create dbcVIP1 -t application -a /u01/crs1020/bin/usrvip \
-o oi=eth0,public_ip,on=public_ip_netmask
crs_register dbcVIP1
crs_setperm dbcVIP1 -o root
crs_setperm dbcVIP1 -u user:oracle:r-x
crs_start dbcVIP1
Step 2 write start/stop/status shell script
Place in $CRS_HOME/crs/script on all nodes
#!/bin/sh
case $1 in
'start')
/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/emctl start dbconsole
RET=$?
'stop')
/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/emctl stop dbconsole
RET=$?
'status')
/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/emctl status dbconsole
RET=$?
esac
exit $RET
Step 3 assemble pieces
crs_profile -create myDBC -t application -r dbcVIP1 -a script.sh -o ci=5,ra=2
crs_register myDBC
crs_setperm myDBC -o oracle
crs_setperm myDBC -u user:oracle:r-x
crs_start myDBC
