How automatically launch program when I plug in USB device?

I bought a Neat scanner for my receipts and I want the Neat software to automatically open when I plug the scanner in. How do I do that?

Do you have firewall or anti-virus software running? If you do, it helps to turn it off. Otherwise, click on this link and see if it helps: http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/assistant/itunes/

IPod stopped sync. just sync when you plug another USB device, e.g pendrive

As weird as it may seem all my iPods (i have 2 old Nanos, 2 new Nanos, one Shuffle and one Touch)stopped syncing. iTunes recognizes them without a problem. I can configure them to sync to a particular playlist but nothing really happens.
After a lot a work (plugged them in another PC to have 'em erased and all; reinstalled iTunes 9, etc) I just found out the strangest behavior: if I click Sync it takes a long time and nothing really happens. If I do it again anfd plug another USB device (like a pendrive) then sync goes smoothly.
Not sure why.. all I know is that I love the hardware but hate the software.
Maybe if I reinstall my PC the issue will go away...
Any ideas???

It's probably not a problem with the shuffle. Your computer's USB bus may not be providing enough power for all of your connected USB devices. A typical USB mouse and keyboard are low-power devices, so you must have other devices connected...? An iPod, because it charges battery from the USB port, is a high-power device.
I use a powered USB hub. The hub has its own power supply. I have the hub connected to the computer, and most of my devices, like iPods, iPhone, flash drives, etc. connect to the hub. I use the USB ports on the computer for things I leave connected more or less permanently, such as printer and external drive.
Since the hub has its own power supply, devices connected to it do not draw power from the computer's USB bus. So that is important. Some cheaper USB hubs are not self-powered; they are powered by the computer's USB port. I use an older version of this one

but there are many options. Just get one that has its own power supply.

Can you automatically start programs when you switch on your imac

can you automatically start programs when you switch on your imac

Yes, go to: Apple / System Preferences / User Groups / Login Items and add the Application to the list of things automatically set to start at login.
However, you should limit it to those that you need or use, because adding a lot will needlessly slow down your startup time and use more RAM.

Automatically disabling touchpad when mouse plugged in

Is there some way for me to configure udev so that, when I plug a USB mouse into my laptop, the laptop's touchpad gets disabled? And reenabled if I pull the mouse? The touchpadd can be a PITA when I am typing ... a slight brush of the thumb can cause a "mouse click" often moving my cursor location.
Mark

See the manpage of udev, quote:
After device node creation, removal, or network device renaming, udev
executes the programs located in the directory tree under /etc/dev.d/.
The name of a program must have the suffix .dev to be recognized.
In addition to the hotplug environment variables, UDEV_LOG is set if
udev is configured to use the syslog facility. Executed programs may
want to follow that setting. DEVNAME is exported to make the name of
the created node, or the name the network device is renamed to, avail-
able to the executed program. The programs in every directory are
sorted in lexical order, while the directories are searched in the fol-
lowing order:
/etc/dev.d/$(DEVNAME)/*.dev
/etc/dev.d/$(SUBSYSTEM)/*.dev
/etc/dev.d/default/*.dev

Itunes will not open when i click on the icon or when I plug in my device.

Itunes will not open when I click, left or right, on the icon nor when I plug in a device.

are you sure your i-tunes is installed proper cause the icon is just a shortcut to the program.You might have some missing files. If so you may need to uninstall it and reinstall a new one.

I got a usb charger for my 4th gen Ipod touch that at first allowed my to charge and transfer music from my laptop to the Ipod now nothing happens when I plug the usb

I got a usb charger for my 4th gen Ipod touch that at first allowed my to charge and transfer music from my laptop to the Ipod now nothing happens when I plug the usb cord and Ipod into my laptop. Its mac so it is an apple system. I am wondering how I can fix this problem I am not very good with techy stuff so this is very confusing how it was working and it just stopped.

Hi johnsmiff99,
That is never fun when your iPod touch does not show up on your Mac. Take a look at the article below to walk you through on getting it to show back up on your iTunes. It is very easy to read so you wont feel overwhelmed with to much techy jargon. Let me know if you get this worked out.
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac

Zen Micro Freezes when I plug in USB cable+USB not recognized at ti

Ok, I know you, the reader, has heard this complaint posted over and over on the Creative forums, and you would probably tell me to SEARCH THE FORUMS. Well, I did, and I found no answer or solution to my problems. So..here goes nothing.
I recently purchased a Black 5gb Creative Zen Micro, I was really content and happy with it...that is until I plugged it into my USB 2.0 Card. The moment I do that (I've tried plugging it in into every USB 2.0 slot, and NO, this isn't a hub, but a PCI card), The Zen Micro freezes! I have to resolve this by removing the cover and taking out the battery, then reinserting the battery. At the same time my Zen Micro freezes, a little bubble pops up on my computer screen saying "USB Device Not Recognized". I'm going absolutely out of my mind here, and am on the verge of returning the Zen Micro, and might get a replacement, and if that doesn't work, just returning the Zen altogether for a refund and getting a Rio Carbon. I really like the Zen, so PLEASE PLEASE help me out here!
Things I've Tried That Did Not Work:
-Uninstall/Reinstalling Zen Explorer, Mediasource (basically everything on CD)
-Updating the drivers for Zen Micro found on Nomadness.net
-Updating Firmware for Zen Micro
-Going into rescue mode and cleaning up, Formatting, reloading firmware, and rebooting.
-Trying the USB 2.0 Card in different PCI Slots
-Rotating the order in which I connect the USB cable to Zen Micro and PC
-Uninstalling/Reinstalling the drivers, even when the Zen Micro pops up as "Unknown Device"
-Reading tips/hints on Nomadness.net
I have scoured the forums, and have not found anything useful or new. I know its not the USB 2.0 Card's problem, since I plugged in my USB mouse into all the ports on the USB Card, and it worked fine.
Note: When I plug the USB cable that came with the Zen Micro into the integrated USB slots on the motherboard (USB .), it at times, does work, but even then, not a high chance of it happening. Even if I do successfully connect the Zen to a USB . slot without it freezing up, the Zen ends up not being detected by any program, like Window Media Player, Mediasource, or Creative Zen Micro Explorer.
I am going out this weekend and am gonna try to buy a new USB Cable, and if that doesn't work, returning the cable, and returning the Zen Micro to be replaced. AND IF THAT DOES NOT WORK...GOODBYE CREATIVE! HELLO RIO! But please, any help you guys could give would be greatly appreciated. I will also try to contact Creative Customer Support, but I doubt they'll tell me anything new, if I could even connect to them without being put on hold.
System Specs:
Windows XP Professional SP2
Creative Zen Micro Firmware .02.05
USB 2.0

Yep, that's exactly my issues to.....no matter what I've done, including replacing the USB 2.0 card which WAS and Adaptec DuoConnect 2.0 card which works fine with every other USB device ever connected to it, the Zen Micro 6g is NOT recognized by Creative Media Source or WMP. It is only recognized by the PC in Device Manager, and it has a yellow marker on it, which tells me the drivers are not installed. I know I don't need the drivers installed, but even after installing them, it tells me the drivers are not installed.
However, the answer is: it's definitely not the Micro, since it works flawlessly on my other PC and on my Toshiba notebook. So, it's some compatibility issue on that one PC. Since I refuse to let things be, I am reformatting that PC, reinstalling from scratch with WinXP and sp2. This PC has WinXP Pro but it has other issues so a reformat is in order anyway. Hopefully, this will resolve the issues. If not, then I say it's incompatibility with the Intel 865Perl m.b. But I'm at a loss as to why it won't work when plugged into the Adaptec card too.

Audio not switching to Display when I plug in USB

Normally, all audio automatically switches to the LED display speakers when I plug the USB connector into my MBP. It seems, after I manually switched the audio to my MBP once, this automatic switch doesn't happen anymore (I can still manually switch), and I can't find a way to reset it. Anyone experiencing this or know the answer?

I found a solution. If you delete the two preference files located in the folder noted below and restart, my macbook/ACD reverts to auto switching sound output the way I expect it to work. One problem, I can not change ANYTHING related to system sounds behavior in the sound preference pane or the lack of auto switching returns. I have not exhaustively tested which options are linked, but all I've tried make the problem return. However, I am able change the system volume using keyboard keys or the menu bar slider without the problem returning.

My iphone I fell to the ground yesterday, from a height of approximately 1 meter. after this I trailed off, now only turns on when I plug the usb but the apple appears and just turn off and turn back, there is nothing more that I recommend doing?

With that behavior you need to take the iPhone to an Apple store genius bar for an out-of-warranty replacement. In the US that is $269 for the iPhone 5.

Are you connecting your iPhone directly to your PC or to a USB hub?

Why wont my phone charge when i plug the usb into my laptop?, Why wont my phone charge when i plug the usb into my laptop?

why wont my phone charge when i plug my usb into my macbook air?

Most USB ports can't supply the power required to charge a phone.
The original USB port was limited to 0.5 amps at 5 volts which is 2.5 watts.
Your phone probably has a 10 watt charger.
Recent machines allow more power from the USB port but I doubt they allow 2 amps which is what would be required to get 10 watts. Even if they did a 2 amp draw is going to be a heavy load on the MBA battery.
