Choose application at startup

When I first turn on my iMac, in the start up process it now offers/challenges me with the "Choose Application" page.  I dismiss it.
Why is this happening at startup?
How do I make it stop happening?

Nudged me in right direction.
Had installed an unpdated version of SpamSieve & that's what "Choose Application" was seeking.
File under "read the fine instructions."  "Choose Application" was requesting attention for SpamSieve, but font was inconspicuous, so I just didn't see it.
Thanks for getting me to look closer.

  • "Choose Application Defaults" window NEVER goes away

    i am running DVDSP 4.2.0 on a dual 2.5ghz G5 w/6GB of RAM 10.4.10 and every time i start DVDSP it prompts me to choose application defaults. Show at startup is UNchecked. i click ok, then it prompts me again. it also prompts me when i close the program. what is going on? i've deleted my preference file and that did nothing. any help would be much appreciated.

    I would try a persmissions repair. Also, check the permissions on the prefs folder and file. There was a trick discussed here a while ago about locking the prefs file to prevent the prefs being changed, but this behavior sounds like the same type of situation, particularly since it seems to be asking on both startup and quit, when the program is attempting to modify the prefs.

  • Message bean does not start automatically during application server startup

    I have a message bean that does not start up during application server startup. I am able to successfully start the application manually using the visual admin tool.I searched the logs and found the following error. The error references the "QueueConnectionFactory" is not deployed or is not started. I have check and the "QueueConnectiopnFactory" is deployed. Is this a problem with the application trying to start before the "QueueConnectionFactory"? Is thier a way to define a dependency on my application not to start until the "QueueConnectionFactory" has been started, if so can how would I define this dependency. Please provide and example.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    I though the same thing, but XE LISTENER is running on localhost and port 1522. On the other hand XE have local_listener explicitly set to the very same connection descriptor. Even XE installation was second on this server.
    I've could change that yes, but the startup script doesn't seemed to have this mind.

  • My "Choose Application" list of apps is replaced with iTunes list

    I have a problem with something being corrupted in the "Choose Applications" dialog.  Instead of a list of apps, there is a dropdown menu called "iTunes" and there is a list of songs where the application list should be.  Has anyone seen this error, and is there a database file that I can check for corruption or replacement?
    Thank you.

    You should be able to change iTunes to whatever application that you want. 
    The next time you get the "Choose Application" dialogue, select the application in the list of application on your computer. 
    If that does not work, please post a screen shot of the window in question. 

  • How to open the choose application dialog on Mac?

    Hi all,
    I want to know how can we open the "choose application" dialog from InDesign. I want to give this functionality through right click context menu.
    At present CS4 has this feature - steps are as follows:
    1.Create a document.
    2.Place an item on the document.
    3.Now select the placed item and right click on it.
    4.Go to "Edit With->Other..." option.
    5.Choose application dialog opens up and user can select the application in which he/she wants to open the selected item.
    I want the same behavior but not able to understand how to open the choose application dialog on Mac. I have already achieved this on windows.
    I think that there might be some system API's for Mac to get this working.
    Please let me know about this, any help will be appreciable.

    Is this not sufficient? Looks like  you get some defaults then an "other" at the bottom as well. Control click or right click, when using the white arrow on the image.

  • Doing stuff at Application Server startup

    Hi all,
    Sorry I have to post it here but my posts in "Java Programming' are not showing up.
    How can I do some stuff when the application server is starting up.
    I am using JBoss 3.2.3. At the Application Server startup I want to read a Properties file, and set its values in a class.
    For example I have a AppDefaults.properties file with this entry:
    DefaultDAOFactory=MSSQLSERVER
    Now I have a class AppEnvironment:
    public static class AppEnvironment {
      public static String defaultDAOFactory;
    }Then at startup i want to read the value of "DefaultDAOFactory" key in AppDefaults.properties and set it as defaultDAOFactory attribute's value in AppEnvironment class.
    How can I do that?
    Thanks

    Sorry I have to post it here but my posts in "Java

    How can I do some stuff when the application server
    is starting up.
    I am using JBoss 3.2.3. At the Application Server
    startup I want to read a Properties file, and set its
    values in a class. I would guess that JBoss would have some call-back hooks for this. In which case the JBoss Forum might be a better place to ask (but they seam to have work forums, so I don't know if you can trust 'em). If not, maybe a static block:
    public static class AppEnvironment {
      public static String defaultDAOFactory;  static {
        loadProps();
        defaultDAOFactory = props.getProp( "default_doa_factory" );
    }

  • How do I choose a default startup drive?

    I have two startup drives on my Hard Drive. One is Snow Leopard and the other is Leopard. I need Leopard for some printing issues with Photoshop and Epson. How do I choose a default startup drive? Most of the time I want the Snow Leopard drive at startup but it seems to always start up on Leopard. I need to always hold down the option key at startup. Sometimes I forget.

    noondaywitch wrote:
    System Preferences > Startup Dive > select the drive with 10.6.x I suspect you may need to do that for both systems. Click the lock to prevent further changes, then do an option-boot and ensure it'll let you start from the other.
    Macs store a reference to the default startup drive set in System Preferences > Startup Drive in PRAM, so you don't have to set it individually for each drive or partition -- as long as the selected one is available at startup time, that is the one the Mac will start up from. (Otherwise, it will be the first available one found. If none capable of starting up the Mac are found instead the flashing slashed circle with the question mark in it won't go away, indicating the Mac is still waiting for you to make one available, for instance by powering up an attached external drive or inserting a bootable DVD.)
    The option key startup method temporarily overrides this & allows you to choose another drive or partition, but just for that startup -- the next time you start up normally, it will revert to the selected one.
    Also, the lock in System Preferences has nothing to do with making preference settings permanent or persistent. It is just a security feature to prevent unauthorized users from making changes from an already logged in user account. For instance, it makes no difference if the lock is closed or open at startup time, because that is before the OS is running or able to check preference file settings stored on disks. During the early stages of the boot process, code resident in firmware checks for depressed keys & buttons before loading the OS from the default source set in PRAM. This is how it decides if it should instead run the Startup Manager (evoked by the option key), first eject a CD or DVD (evoked by the eject key or primary mouse button), or start up from an alternate source like an installer DVD (evoked by the C key).

  • Dialogue "Choose Application" After Launching App.

    Hi
    For a long long time I've had a problem where with some applications upon launching them I get a dialogue which says "Choose Application" in the title bar and then below that it says "Where is [Name of App]?". This dialogue box has the window for navigating the Finder (like an Open dialogue) and there is a button on bottom right with the word "Choose" on it. I have had a solution which is to find the application and then "choose" and that solves the problem it seems for that particular application.
    However there is one application which presents this problem and I cannot solve it by that method. The application is 1Password, in particular the plugin on the web browser which, when invoked, will bring up this dialogue. I have taken this up with 1Password and they have recommended I reinstall my browser plugin, which I had already done. However I don't think the problem is with 1Password, it is something odd about my OS. Amazingly the same problem is on my MacBook Pro and my Mac Pro.
    I used the Onyx utility to rebuild Launch Services thinking that might help, but it has made no difference.
    I would be grateful for any suggestions as to a solution.
    I have Mavericks OS 10.9.5 on both computers.
    Thank you.

    Susan,
    We need to know exactly how much RAM you have and exactly what you have your monitor resolution set to.
    If you have less than 2GB of RAM, forget it; I know the ReadMe file says you need a minimum of 512 MB, but that's unrealistic.  It's enough for Photoshop CS3 to launch, but not to work comfortably and consistently.  The monitor resolution should be at least 1024x768.
    20 GB of available disk space in practice is marginal for the Mac OS X swap files (especially in case of one of the Leopards) to share with Photoshop's Scratch Disk.  I'm not surprised you're crashing.  Just for reference, I have a separate, dedicated internal 160 GB hard drive just for Photoshop's Scratch Disk alone.
    Also, any time a hard drive—any hard drive—approaches 80% used space, you're in deep trouble already.
    With a bigger boot drive or making much more space available in your current one, an external hard drive as Photoshop scratch disk, maximizing your RAM to as much as the machine will take (if it takes at least 2GB) and downgrading to Tiger 10.4.11, your G4 PowerBook should run CS3 just fine.
    If CS4 ran on Panther, I would even downgrade to it from Tiger; I have no use for Spotblight and the Dashboard anyway and have permanently disabled both.  In the case of Leopard, If I were ever to run it, I would disable the massively intrusive Time Machine and Spaces as well.
    That's my personal opinion based on equally personal experience.
    Good luck.

  • 'Choose Application' powering up MacBook Pro

    I purchased a new MacBook Pro (had an older MacBook running Lion) and after I transferred all my data and applications, I keep getting a 'Choose Application' pop-up for iChat after I power-up my computer. 
    How do I get rid of that since I'm using iMessage in Mountain Lion?

    It sounds like you have an AppleScript in your login items that expects to find iChat.

  • MacBook Pro, Mid 2012 slow to load applications and startup

    Problem description:
    I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch, mid 2012 computer. Over the past months it has become increasingly slower during load up, and application loads.
    Running OS X Yosemite
    Processor: 2.9 GHz, Intel Core i7
    Memory 8GB 1600 MHz DDR3
    Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
    I installed an application Memory Clean from the App Store and I need to run it every so often to keep the load down. It shows of the 8GB available, App Memory eating up 3.32 GB, File Cache 2.25 GB, Wired 1.16 GB, Compressed 122.03 MB for used 6.80 GB.
    I am considering upping the memory from 8 GB to 16 GB, but think it is something else dragging it down. I am not a total computer newbie, but am no where near a techomage so any advice given if it could be in simple to follow instructions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks for any advice given, have a great day.

    How to manage intermittent lag in OS X Yosemite | MacIssues
    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
    5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.

  • Add or remove applications from Startup in LION

    We just did a migration from Tiger to Lion for our primary Mac user and now, on her new machine running Lion, Microsoft Excel and Microsoft Entourage launch every time she starts up her PC.  Microsoft Excel was not even in her Startup on her old system. 
    I followed the instructions provided in this link:  http://www.apple.com/findouthow/mac/#appstartup for adding and removing applications from a user's Startup in Lion.  For this user, there are no Microsoft 2008 applications listed.  She is the only user on the computer - there is a guest account that is shown but cannot be accessed or modified from the Users and Groups folder in System Preferences. 
    So, my question is:  Is there another way to see what would be the equivalent of the "Startup" folder in Windows on an iMac running Lion?  Or am I missing something?  How did Excel get into Startup?  How do I get it out?
    Marty

    As it turned out,  I noticed that when you shut down or restart the computer, a question box comes up asking "Are you sure you want to restart/shutdown your computer now?"  There is a check box next to the option "Reopen windows when logging back in", which is checked by default.  I discovered that if you uncheck that box just one time, it will not attempt to open any applications that were open during any previous shutdown. It appears to sort of 'wipe the slate clean'.  That is how I got it to stop launching Microsoft 2008 applications on every startup even when they were not in the user's Login Items.  And they were not set for Open At Login. 
    This one led me a merry chase!  Thanks to all who responded.

  • How to choose Application layout in flex?

    Hi Everyone ....!
    I have confused to select the layout in flex 3.0.There are three type of layout having absolute,horizontal and vertical. Which one is best? and How to choose layout? and please Explain about layout???/...
    Thanks in advance.........
    Regards,
    Selvendran.A

    You mean if you want to have a user-resizeable application?
    If so, all 3 layouts work.
    If you can tell us what you want to build very briefly, we can help you pick a layout, however, as I said, this isn't super-important and you can change this as your application begins to take shape.
    I generally use a vertical layout for my applications for example, but not because it's best, none of the 3 can be considered that, simply because I have more vertical elements than horizontal ones or that need to be placed in specific places given (x,y).
