How can i take a program off startup?

Hi, K. & H.E.
System Preferences > Accounts > click lock, authenticate > your_account > Login Items tab. Select MS Word in the list of Login Items, click [-] to remove it.
Note that if a Word document, instead of Word itself, was specified as a Login Item, this would also cause Word to launch when you log in.
See "Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Opening items automatically when you log" for additional details.
Good luck!

  • How can I take firefox 4 off my computer, since downloading having other problems that I didnt before

    I had to download firefox 4 in order to download a picture, but since downloading it, I am having other problems with my computer so I want to take it off...how can I go about doing so? Thank you

    #Go to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel, scroll down to "Mozilla Firefox" and remove it, choosing to keep your bookmarks, customizations etc., (don't checkmark the box).
    #Then reboot and delete the folder called "Mozilla Firefox" at this location: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    This will retain your bookmarks, customizations etc., so that if you reinstall Firefox at a later date, these will become available to you again. If you don't want to retain that data, checkmark the box mentioned in step #1

  • How can I take 3 devices off of my email account and give them their own account. We are sharing storage and need to each have our own account.

    Everyone in my family has an iPhone or iPad and they are all on one email account. How do I take them off and give them their own accounts so I can have my storage back?

    Have them delete the iCloud account (your email address) on their devices then let them create their own iCloud account -> http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4436.  If all of you are syncing contacts and calendars on the same iCloud account, they have to re-organise those stuffs once they have their own iCloud account.  When you delete an iCloud account, it normally asks what would you do for the synced information - keep it on the iOS device or delete.  If they choose to keep the synced information (e.g. Contacts and Calendars), they have to delete those thare aren't theirs or they can start from scratch by deleting the synced information from the iOS device.  Hope this helps.  Cheers!

  • How can i take the music off my ipod touch/iphone 3gs and put it on my itunes account without deleting the music

    I have a Ipod touch and a Iphone 3gs with music that i want to put on my Iphone 4s. How can i put music from each one onto my itunes without itunes trying to delete it?????

    You can transfer purchases from your iPhone and iPod touch to your computer and it will put all music, apps, books, and other purchases or downloads made in iTunes onto your computer. Or you can sign into the iTunes Store in iTunes on your computer and go to Purchases > Not on This Computer > Download all for each tab across the top.
    If you have any music that was imported from CDs to your Dad's computer, you'll need to import those to your laptop. When you sync your iPhone, it will erase all the music on your iPhone and replace it with the music in your Music Library. If you have all of the music that's on your iPhone on your computer already (by importing CDs and transferring purchases) you won't lose anything.

  • How can I take my music off my ipod and onto my mac

    is there a program to take music from your ipod and put it on to your apple computer?

    If you only want to copy your purchases to the computer that can be done using iTunes, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer data (such as playcounts and ratings), movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well.
    A selection of iPod/iPhone to iTunes utilities:
    Senuti Mac Only (iPod Touch & iPhone compatible)
    Music Rescue Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iGadget Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iRepo Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    iPod Access Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)
    TouchCopy Mac & Windows (iPhone and iPod Touch compatible)

  • How can I take folder pictures off my mother's iPad?

    My mother has an iPad 2 and I sent her up with folders on my Dad's computer so we could file grandkids' pictures and then sync them to the iPad. Everything was fine until my Dad deleted the folder of pictures from his computer (don't ask!). Now, when I sync the iPad, the pictures don't sync back to the computer. When I open the iPad as a hard drive and look in the photo file, there is nothing there but Camera Roll photos.  What can I do to retrieve my Mom's pictures? She's ready to divorce my Dad over this!

    I'm assuming there is no backup of the computer files. Is the computer a Mac or PC? The photo files are still on the computer's hard drive, but since they were deleted the Finder can't find them. You need to use a file recovery program like DataRescue http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/10259/data-rescue
    Another important point. You need to quit using the computer until you run the file recovery program, since if you save new files the area of the hard drive where the photos are will be overwritten. The photos are gone unless you use a file recovery program. There are companies that do data recovery, but it's usually expensive.

    I share an iTunes account with my siblings. So their contacts appear on my phone too. How can I take it off?

    You can share the same Apple ID in
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
    But for all other Apple services like:
    FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

  • How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro and go back to using Snow Leopard

    How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro because it has too much problems with the new operating system, I have talked to Apple support for both computers and still nothing happens I think they know that there's something wrong and they don't know how to fix it are there working on fixing it. So how can I put snow leopard Mac on my computer so that it works every time, there's a lot of good features in Lion but there's a lot of bad features and especially when it comes to turning on your computer and the memory that it has held so if one item is missing then it doesn't work and you have to reboot the computer to get it to work but I still like my Mac.

    Take a look at this:

  • I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto?

    I have photos on my iphone 4 that i'm trying to transfer to iphoto.  The problem is when I plug the phone in, it only wants to transfer the new photos, not all.  How can I take all the photos off my phone and put them into iphoto? Even if there are duplicates, I'd like to make sure I get all the photos from my phone into iphoto.  Thanks

    To see all the photos on the phone, including photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, deselect the "Hide Photos Already Imported" checkbox. If the camera contains photos that have already been imported into iPhoto, those photos are hidden by default.
