Delayed start time

I have a delayed start time on my MacBook Pro, not associated with any event.. 1-2 minutes of grey to blue screens before I am able to use my machine. Otherwise working well. Any suggestions? Much appreciated..

What version of Mac OS?  Have you booted to the install DVD (or recover disc) and run Disk Utility to repair permissions and repair the disk?
Try reset the PRAM by shutting the machine down, the start the machine and quickly  hold the key combination <CMD>+<OPT>+p+r until you hear the restart chime three times.  Then release the keys.

  • Delaying start time for Nokia 925 Aps?

    Is  it possible,  delaying start time for Nokia 925 Aps? For. egzample, Night watsch (uses a lot of batteries).
    I need to be visible from 5:00. Is it possible, make it automatic startup 5:00?

    hi mate, sorry to hear about your experience. in this case, the fault may lie with the Nokia Care point's handling of your device. in this case you will need to persist with them until they either fix it or issue you with a replacement. else if they are not being conducive to the matter, then you will need to take up the issue with head office of Nokia in your region.

  • Delay start time of song

    I have a track in itunes that I want to delay the start of. I would like to start it 18 seconds in to avoid the intro, every time it plays as part of a playlist or otherwise.
    I went to Info and checked the box that says Start Time and I made it :19.
    But when I play the song, it plays it from the beginning anyway. What's up with that?
    I am using version 10.6.3.25 because I want to keep the Cover Flow option and the program works fine for me. (Increasingly I find that new versions of programs just add crap I don't want or need and take away features I like).
    Thanks for your help resolving this issue.

    Well, thanks for all the replies but I figured it out for myself.
    Actually the setting of in and out points in Options in itunes apparently does not work for some long mp3's, or at least doesn't work correctly.
    I had to mess around with it to get it to work, putting in different values for seconds and minutes than what logic would dictate. I got it to work, though not at the exact in and out times I wanted.
    Thanks again for all the help!

  • Delay start of a quicktime

    Is there anyway to delay quicktime starting on a web page, like with an embed parameter? Controls like "volume", "loop", etc are so easy to work with, is there one for delay starting?

    I still want it to run automatically but be able to adjust the start time. Can anyone explain how to use "starttime", here is the explanation, but I don't understand:
    STARTTIME=time (optional...requires QuickTime 4)
    The STARTTIME attribute defines the first frame of the movie. STARTTIME can be any time within the length of the movie. By default, STARTTIME is the first frame of the movie (or 00:00:00). This attribute takes a time value in the form Hours:Minutes:Seconds:Frames (30ths). The frames component can be specified as a fixed point number so that more specific times can be specified for instance 3:30:22.5 means 3 minutes, 30 seconds and 22.5 frames.
    Sounds like what I need but can't get it to work, what is "frames"? thanks

  • Zen (Agent) service delayed start

    Hi!
    ZCM 10.3.3 on SLES 11 SP1, Windows XP and 7 ws's. One problem or thing I noticed long time. When device is restarted then even ZCC show ws in green and agent service is started on on ws it seems to that Agent Service start is not in effect ... delayed for minutes. I mean, when I have set something for setup on device boot then it takes some 10 minutes or so (depends on ws, but even fast one has delay) to start this installation (device is refreshed and app is cached). Also, most worrying for me is that on computer labs we use for students dynamic volatile profiles and we rely fully on Novell Application Launcher (from ZfD days) to get apps and when device is just (re)started student can login, but NAL window does not appear - empty Desktop. Something I can do about this delayed start or it is by design so.
    Sorry, can't explain it more in details as every service on ws and server is ok as service. Just seems to on ws it does not take effect right away after ws is (re)started. Hope You understand what I mean.
    More thanks, Alar.

    Hi again!
    Usually it (delayed service "wakeup") is not a problem as I start all ws's on site on workdays at morning and shut them down at evening. But, when on some reason user does restart ws (even shutdown/restart is removed as option for user, but ... sometimes hardware let You down etc.) or ws's is needed at weekends (also in computer rooms) then ... I'm little bit in trouble!

  • Change the start time of track 1

    Hi, fairly new with waveburner but spent about 2 hours going through all the windows so i've got a good idea about the layout and where everything is.
    Goal - to remove the 4 second silence at the beginning of the cd. There is a 2 second pause, and 2 seconds before the audio kicks in.
    I recorded a dj mix and imported from logic into waveform. I made my track edits, titled all my tracks, added my efx and automation adjustments and just burned my master cd. After further review there is a 5 second delay before the first track.
    I zoom into the timeline and it appears the audio sample is located and starts at 4 seconds. There is by default a 2 second pause for the first track. I have tried to change the start time on track 1, move the entire sample, and create a new track on the 5 second marker and delete the first track but i can't move get the first track to start at the 4 second point.
    Here is a screenshot - http://kennygrant.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/kenny-screenshot.gif
    totally frustrated as the file i bounced did not have a 4 seconds of silence, so i'm totally confused.

    What I ended up doing John is just simply deleting the original events from iCal then I went in to Outlook and manually changed the start/stop times of each event then went into the IMAP Calendar folder, clicked on that event and added it to my iCal. Thats sort of the process I use for getting my events to from Exchange to iCal anyway (can't wait for Snow Leopard) but that did the trick for me for these few items that were off. Fortunately I don't expect any changes from the author.
    Thanks for responding!

  • Delayed start of netweaver system

    Since yesterday our SapNetweaver based Enterprise Portal has a huge delayed start. Normally it takes about 10min until the system is up & running.
    Now it takes about 2 hours.
    System: NetWeaver 7.30 SP8 on HPUX
    In the Log dev_server0 are only garbage collection or some CMS entries between State changed from 2 (Starting framework) to 10 (Starting apps) and State changed from 10 (Starting apps) to 3 (Running).
    No other log in /usr/sap/SID/InstanceNr/work directory is written while the systems starts (except for std_server0.out and available.log)
    The default respectively the application log in /usr/sap/SID/Nr/j2ee/cluster/server0/log are not really helpful.
    So has anyone a idea or a hint where i can find a useful entry in a log?
    Best regards
    André

    Hello André
    In most of the cases, the J2EE Engine spends most of the time in Starting Applications phase. IN order to diagnose the issue, you need to capture 4-5 thread dumps at an interval of 1 min each on all server nodes. Generally, most of the Application Threads are blocked by a thread. Once you find such thread, you need to diagnose in that direction. There can be long tunning DB calls which can block applications threads. You may refer below sap link for capturing and analysing thread dumps:
    (JSTTSG)(Deploy)Thread Dump - Technology Troubleshooting Guide - SCN Wiki
    I hope this will help you!!
    Thanks,

  • Delay start of background audio?

    Is there any way to delay the start of the background audio track?
    I'd like the video to start first, silently, and have the audio come in a second or two later. I can pin the audio to the first still image but if I later move that to rearrange the order of the first slide then I have to fix up the audio...
    If I could delay the start of the background audio I'd avoid that problem.

    I still want it to run automatically but be able to adjust the start time. Can anyone explain how to use "starttime", here is the explanation, but I don't understand:
    STARTTIME=time (optional...requires QuickTime 4)

  • "SMS Agent Host" Automatic (Delayed Start)

    Hi,
    Our support think it take longtime to reconnect with the "Remote Control Viewer" if you rebooted the "Windows Client" 
    The "SMS Agent Host" is set to Automatic (Delayed Start), and I have seen both it is okey to change it to "automatic" and not. I found an post that it should be okey to set it to "automatic"? Is there any issue to do so?

    /SaiTech

    Hi,
    The remote control agent is separate from the SMS Agent host and can be changed to Automatic, see this previous thread.
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/778e5454-a968-4c5c-87df-470636e5e29b/changing-the-service-start-on-configuration-manager-remote-control-service?forum=configmanagergeneral
    The reason the SMS Agent host is set to delayed start is to not effect the startup time for the user..

  • Start time of thumbnail buttons

    Hi, is possible to set start time of the thumbnail buttons in menu ?? `cause my menu start with flash so I really don`t want to see the buttons inside of the flash
    Thanks

    You want to delay when the video starts playing in all the thumbnails by 5 seconds? The only way to do that in Encore is to create two menus: a static menu with a duration of 5 seconds that has an end action set to the motion menu.
    You could also create a motion menu background in Premiere or After Effect and do it all with a single menu - but you'd have to animate the thumbnails in PPro/AE.

  • Set start time for symbols on timeline?

    Hi
    I built several buttons - made as symbols - that animate onto the screen, and would like to stagger the start times slightly for effect.
    I thought I would be able to simply drag the symbols onto the stage and set the start times by clicking/dragging them on the timeline, but that doesn't seem to be working. I see the "Playback" and a + button but regardless of what I try I can't seem to delay the start of the symbol.
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks, I'm getting stuck between old Flash programming, Captivate development and After Effects... whew!
    Rich

    First turn autoplay off in each button. Then tell us how you want these buttons- are they supposed to appear at different time or just play at different times?
    If you want to show them at different times and then play them turn their display on where you want them and it will turm off before automatically.
    Autoplay if OFF on this picture. It has a checkmark when it is ON.

  • IMovie update 10.0.8 slows start time

    New to the community, I'm using a 13" MacBook Air, with original  Mountain Lion, that was updated to OS X Yosemite, now at OS X Yosemite with a Processor speed of 1.7 GHz intel Core i5 Memory of 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, 251 GB Flash Storage with remaining memory of 209.21 GB, I have no additional hardware installed, or games installed.  The battery was replaced approximately 8 months ago with a authorized service dealer.                                  After installing update to iMovie version 10.0.08 on 04/24/2015 ( I do not use this program @ all )  my Air start time became very slow, with a white, blank screen in excess of 35 seconds prior to my log in screen. After this delayed startup there seems to be no other apparent problems.   Is there a solution to improve my start time ?  Thanks in advance !

    Your iMovie Library needs to be in the movies folder not a sub folder. Try trashing iMovie preferences, reboot and relaunch iMovie. If that doesn't help I would reinstall iMovie.

  • CacheLoader different expiry-delay or time-to-live for different keys

    I am now using a class which implements CacheLoader interface. Ii have two issues-
    1. Different expiry-delay or time-to-live for different keys- how do i do this? I can specify only one expiry-delay in configuration file. And i am not calling cache.put() so i could specify ttl. We are trying to use same class for multiple keys. But problem is that we have different expiry-delay requirements for those keys. Do we have to use different cache for those keys? hoping to avoid that as we will have lots of them.

    Hi
    Refresh ahead is only activated when you do a get. Could this be the problem? Here is an excerpt from a good forum thread on this subject
    Unable to get refresh-ahead functionality working
    Yes, it works as expected. refresh-ahead works approximately like this :
    public Object get(Object oKey) {
    Entry entry = getEntry();
    if (entry != null and entry is about to expire) {
    schedule refresh();
    Also, generic Coherence questions should be posted in this forum:

  • How to Minimize the starting time of the application in iPhone?

    Please anybody suggest, how can i reduce the starting time of a web application developed for iPhone?
    Application is connecting to the web quickly in the Simulator, but it is connecting the web with some delay in the device.
    I am using GPRS for the internet connection in device.
    Any quick help regarding this will be very much helpful to us.
    Thanks,
    Adam

    Don't make the user wait while you're downloading data. Cache the data in a local file for fast startup, then use NSURConnection to download in the background, and update the UI when finished.

  • Delayed Start-up

    Hello, I am hoping someone can help. I have recently ben noticing delayed start-ups. When I press the start button on my Macbook, it gives a blank, black screen but the light on the front (left side - the one that snores when it sleeps!) comes on. Then after 10-20 seconds it boots up properly showing the grey screen with the apple logo. It takes ages to load the desktop (compared to what it used to). Any ideas? I am going away next week so can't give it into an Apple shop genius place as they have said it will take longer to look at than that.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ruth.

    Yes it gets a fair amount of travel - I go to the office everyday. But not much heat. Yes everything is backed up about 5 times but that's not my issue at the mo. I am reliant on it acually functioning when I go away for research as my linguistic experiment runs on it. I've only had the new hard drive for just over 3 months! It went at the end of December last year. I will definitely take another whole laptop with me when I go away. Hopefully something will work at least!
    Thanks for the advice, but I think I'll have to just wait and see what happens. I took it into the apple shop this morning and as the clicking sounds didn't happen in front of them, they can't do anything about it!!
