Help me, please! skype automatically opens up and ...

I just downloaded skype for my laptop (MSI A6200) today to do a youtube lets play. However, some really weird things happened. For one, my mozilla firefox has msi open up before my homepage whenever I access it. Another thing is that on internet explorer, I have bing. (this doesnt affect me because I rarely use internet explorer). Also, whenever I turn on my laptop skype automatically opens up and I cannot close it. Skype is a really great way to chat with friends, but its affects are very VERY annoying. Please help me! (Like, info on how to get rid of all these things). Also I am running windows 7.
[Mod Edit to add info to Title]

When I connect my iPhone to my PC iTunes no longer automatically opens. And when I open it myself, I can't even find my phone under devices. Help please!

When I connect my iPhone to my PC iTunes no longer automatically opens. And when I open it myself, my phone does not even appear under devices. Help please!!

Things to try:
Try resetting your phone (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds until the Apple logo appears. When you see the Apple logo let go of both buttons and your iPhone will reboot.
Try a new sync cable (often the problem)
Make sure you phone is adequately charged
Make sure you are using latest version of iTunes

Automatically open, save and close excel?

I need import data from Excel to SQL.
Now, I use tSQL to directly read the excel files and transform to the SQL table.
As the user Excel is not a good format for SQL to read, I need use formula to transform the excel to be a SQL readable format.
Now, I add a sheet to copy the data from the sheet which user input the data and then ask the user to copy the excel to a specific location for import.
However, this will make the data in the excel double and result a large excel file.
I am thinking if it is possible to create a excel to use formula to copy the data from another excel.
Then, I need find some method to open that excel, let the content refresh from the source excel, save and close it.
Then I can directly use this excel for data import.
Is there any simple way to do so? I don't know marco much...
Ivan

No formula could do this (Automatically open, save and close excel).
You need to recode a marco or write a macro. Why donot you ask in msdn?

example:
Sub auto_open()
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:01:00"), "wswx"
End Sub
Sub
wswx() If Not ThisWorkbook.Saved
Then ThisWorkbook.Save
ThisWorkbook.Close
End Sub

IMac startup automatically opens Safari and Text Edit

Whenever I start or restart my iMac, it automatically opens Safari and Text Edit in two small windows. This happens even even when those programs were off when the computer was shut done. Not a major problem but I'd like to fix it.

Did you check your Login items in the "Accounts" Systems Preference? You might be starting up the applications when you boot.

How To Automatically Open docx and xlsx files in Safari

I am been doing some searching but don't seem to be able to find an answer to what must be a very simple setting I am missing somewhere.
We have an intranet site with links to a number of docx and xlsx files, I need to tell Safari to automatically open those files rather than simply placing them in the download folder. The only information I could find mentioned creating a file called "com.apple.DownloadAssessment.plist", I found an example of that file that was supposed to do what I am looking for but as far as I can tell the version of Safari I am running (5.1.9) is ignoring this file (placed in my user's preference folder in the Library).
It is frustrating to not be able to figure this out, typically I have no problem finding very basic settings such as these but this has me lost. In Firefox it is trivial and it must be in Safari too. Can anyone help tell me what I need to do so that Safari will automatically open newer MS Office files?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, but there at least you are talking to people who all use the app, while in this forum (which is for hardware and not software in any case, so already off the mark, since the problem has nothing to do with hardware), it is probably a minority.

I cant connect my phone to any wireless because the icon does not appear. Help me please i've done everything and it just does not work

Some days ago i started to have some issues with the internet connection on my iphone (i have an iphone 4s). when it started i couldnt find any wireless available so i turned off the phone and turn it back on and problem solved, when that sttoped working i just disabled the wi-fi button and wait a few seconds and turn it back on and problem solved, and than that stopped working as well so i reset the network setting and problem solved and now nothing of that things work and the wi-fi button is not available anymore. The problem is not from the internet because my ipod can connect easily and the internet works perfectly on my computer as well... Please help me

Do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears, ignore the Slide to Power Off that appears)
Note: You will not lose any data.

Please help! Spilled water on opened MacBook and kept it on for 3 hours!

Okay...so today I was just setting up my printer and I accidentally spilled water onto my MacBook keyboard and the top hung where all the holes are. I immediately rubbed all the water off but I left it on. I didn't know what'll happen. I left my MacBook on sleep, but closed and inserted into y laptop case. After I finished cleaning my room, I decided to restart my MacBook (after 3 hours) BUT it didn't restart. I did look at others post but couldn't find someone's problem he same as mine. I tried bootin it over and over again. No response whatsoever...and what's worse, it's only 2 weeks old. Please help , I don't know what to do:(

Well, I don't know if you brought it in to the apple store yet, but if you did, I'm sure they told you they would fix it for a $755 flat fee. Since your liquid sensors were probably tripped, your warranty is basically void, at least for this instance.
You can diagnose the problem yourself though. Although from the sounds of it the worst probably happened, you can do a few things to check out if you have any hope.
You dont need to "bring it to the apple store" to figure out whats wrong with it as many others have told you is your only option. The service manual that an apple technician uses to diagnose and fix the macbook pros is readily available online.
If you don't want to spend money and your insurance won't cover this here is what you should do.
First check and see if the battery is acting normally, as in it charges and if you press the indicator button it shows you how full it is. If it is working, you are one step closer to being lucky, if its not, don't expect this next step to work unless you are even more lucky. Now take off the bottom case and try to dry any remaining water with a fan or low heat hairdryer. You might even want to wait another week for it to dry. If you are really ambitious you can buy some electrical contact cleaner and do the same and wait another few more days.
Then, on the bottom left on the logic board, near the keyboard connector are 2 larger silver pads. They usually have a power symbol next to them. Mine look like this
They are to the left of the tiny capacitor things and underneath the chip, basically dead center in the picture. Now you want to take a fork, or paperclip, and touch it to one or both of these "pads" (I only had to touch one of them). If you are really lucky, the machine will power on. If it doesn't, disconnect the keyboard ribbon cable which is right next to it and try it again. If it doesn't work, your logic board is most likely dead. If it does power on and your trackpad works, that means you need a new keyboard/power button. (those two are one in the same in a macbook pro) You can buy a replacement keyboard for $50 and while it is not easy to replace, it is not impossible and you could probably find someone to do it for less than $755.
Hopefully yours isn't too different. mine is a late 2010.

Strange Safari Omnibox behaviour - Automatically opens links and searches

Okay, this has been bugging me for a while, but I haven't bothered looking for a fix until today.
Basically, I'll open a new tab in Safari and start typing my search query or URL and after entering a few characters, Safari will automatically go to a link or perform a Google search without me hitting enter, often going to the wrong page (like a bookmark or page in the history). I can't seem to replicate this behaviour on demand, but it happens a couple of times each day.
Sometimes, I'll type a few characters, see the result I want in the history list, and as I scroll down on my trackpad, one of the links above the link that I want to click on will open as I hover over it. My trackpad is set to register a click with the button, not a tap, so it's not like I'm accidentally tapping the links.
Am I mistaking some feature for a bug? Does anyone else ever see this? Am I losing my sanity?
PS. Been having this issue since, I don't know, probably around the time Safari got released with an omnibar. I tried searching on Google and on the discussions here, but I don't exactly know what to look for so I didn't find anything.
Edit: Typo.

mofli --
I'm pretty sure it has something with fonts.
He's has a wild font on there. It looks exactly like the font
that is showing up in the three examples you linked. It looks
kinda like a Eurostyle type font, and very close to Rimouski.
But he needs to visually check this with his Font Book
to see which font it is.
Has he in any way taken out fonts in his System Folder???
This would cause kernel panics . . .
He can check his HD status by launching Disk Utility from his HD>Applications>Utilities folder. Ask him to click on the HD icon.
Down at the bottom of the DU pane, it should have the SMART status
of his HD. Most likely, it will say "Verified."
If not, your fears for his computer failing have been confirmed.
Did he run "repair permissions" after the update???
If not have him run section A from Trav's tips below:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=971817
From what you've told us so far, this isn't a HD failing.
It's a permissions issue, and/or a font issue.
At least in my humble opinion.

[HELP] I use Skype from two computers and i notice...

Sorry for reposting this topic, but it didn't appear on the forum.
Hey there.
I use skype from two computers.
Last week i blocked a contanct from computer1 and yesterday i unblocked it from the same computer.
So i noticed that after i unblocked this contact, it still appears at my homepage with his picture, info and everything, BUT only from computer1.
When i use computer2, this contact appears at my contacts, but only with his skype name (the one he uses to log in) and not with his display name. Also, i can't see his picture or any other information. It just appears offline, with his log-in name and with no picture. That's all.
So what's going on? Why can i see everything normally from computer1 but not from computer2?
P.S.1 99% he blocked me too, but i have no idea whether he unblocked me or not.
P.S.2 I know my english is horrible, sorry for that.

Skype automatic startup?

Hi, I have a slight problem,
Whenever I startup my MBP or restart it, Skype automatically starts up and logs in. I don't want it to that because I hardly use it at all but still I need the program so I don't want to uninstall it. I checked Skype Preferences and Help but haven't found anything where I could deactivate the automatic startup.
Could you please help?
Thanks

Wow. Thanks for the quick reply

Go on to iTunes, and uncheck the albums you want removed. When the phone re-synces, they will be off.
