How do i disable automatic launch of open programs on startup

how do i disable automatic launch of open programs on startup

It's the Resume feature.
When choosing Restart, Sleep or Shutdown there is a checkbox you can uncheck to prevent the apps from launching.
Also in System Preferences > General there is a hard-to-find checkbox under "Number of recent items" you can turn off.
Also, you can hold the shift key to disable resume on a one time basis.
You can turn off Resume globally by going to ~/Library/Saved Application State and deleting that folder.
(note that the User Library is hidden - one way to get there is to go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library")
To turn off autosave and versions globally
If you're experiencing slow opening apps or windows since upgrading to ML... as I have... and you don't want your OS to automatically save your TextEdit files, etc. then simply disable Autosave and Versions via Terminal.
If you don't want autosave or resume you can copy & paste this command into Terminal at the prompt...
defaults write -g ApplePersistence -bool no
Press return
Now reboot.
The reverse would be "yes".

How do I disable the automatic startup on HP Photosmart Premier when I turn my computer on?

Someone else posted ths question a month ago, but still no answers. Anyone?
How do I disable the automatic startup on HP Photosmart Premier when I turn my computer on?
Windows XP, SP3 operating system recently re-installed so I also reinstalled my printer software. Now, for some reason, each time I turn my computer on, my HP Photosmart C4100 all-in-one photosmart premier software opens. It is not in my startup. This slows down my computer terribly, which is why I never used the program before my re-install. How can I disable this feature? I only print, I don't use it for photos.
Any help here is appreciated.

Run msconfig.exe from the start button (type in msconfig). When it comes up go to the Startup tab and find and deselect the HP product you do not want to start. Save and reboot computer. Now try.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.

How do I disable zip folders in Windows 7?

I like to use a third-party archive application, so I really don't like how by default Windows makes zip files expand automatically in Windows Explorer and show up in the folder view.
So... How do I disable zip folders in Windows 7?
In XP and Vista, I was able to find solutions to remove this "feature"
In XP, I simply did...
regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll
In Vista, I had to remove a couple registry entries:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
; Disable ZIP support in Windows Vista
; restart Windows after applying this patch
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}]
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}]
I don't want to guess and delete the wrong registry entries if someone else knows which ones I need to remove.

EDIT - I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION
After considerable browsing (thank you, Google), I have a solution that works. It is based on fixes for Vista, but works 100% for my Windows 7 64-bit install.
You will need to edit your registry (delete 2 different keys), so I highly recommend you back up your registry or better yet, make an image of your OS drive (probably C:\). I use Norton Ghost 2003 (only from a NG 2003 boot floppy) and have never had a single problem. Norton Ghost does not have to be installed on your system for this to work (in fact, it will stall due to compatibility issues).
First a note regarding the various reg tweaks that are available for download (e.g., "vistaunzip.reg"). These will NOT work - undoubtedly due to ownership/permissions issues.
The following two (2) keys need to be deleted fromthe registry:
For zip files delete the regkey
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}
For cab files delete
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}
When you try to delete them, you will almost certainly get an "access denied" or "failed" type of message. Before you can delete them, you need to change the permissions/ownership of these two keys. Here is how to do it:
01 - open regedit from the RUN console
02 - navigate to the first key that needs to be deleted (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0- B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31})
03 - right click on the key and select "Permissions"
04 - click on "Advanced"
05 - click on the "Ownership" tab
06 - in the "change owner to" section, highlight your username
07 - check the box for "replace owner on subcontainers and objects"
08 - click on "Apply"
09 - Click "OK"
10 - Under "Security" tab, highlight your username and check the box for "Allow Full Control" (located mid-menu in the "Permissions For Administrators" section)
11 - click "Apply" and "OK"
12 - you can now delete the registry key. MAKE SURE YOU ARE ON THE CORRECT KEY!
13 - repeat the process for the 2nd key.
14 - reboot (changes will NOT take effect until you reboot
15 - VOILA! NO MORE ZIP FOLDERS! woohoo!
16 - thanks to the original solvers of this problem, whomever they may be.
I would like the same help that deedvd is seeking. How do I DISABLE the
zip folder function? I do NOT want my zip files to appear as "folders".
Why anyone in Redmond thought this was a brilliant idea is beyond me.
It adds to clutter and makes file browsing a lot less enjoyable. I
simply want my zip files to appear as files - with the ".zip"
extension. Just like every other file. The responses to deepdvd were
probably as frustrating to him as they are to me. Changing the default
program for zip files is IRRELEVANT. It only changes whether Windows or
some third party app (7Zip, Izarc, etc) OPENS the files. They continue
to show up as folders. I tried the unregister script (earlier thread)
"Running regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\zipfldr.dll should be enough to disable zip functionality. Then just run your 3rd party archite application and let it re-register archive files." and it did not work. I got the same error that deeddvd got "The module "C:\Windows\system32\zipfldr.dll" was loaded but the entry-point DllUnregisterServer was not found.
Make sure that "C:\Windows\system32\zipfldr.dll" is a valid DLL or OCX file and then try again."
I would love to find a resolution to this problem. If anyone out there knows how to DISABLE the zipfolder function, please post the solution. I am thanking you in advance.

How do I disable http at the AP level with 5508 running 7.4.100.0

                   I have a 5508 with 7.4.100.0, with 76 3602I AP's connected. Each AP responds to an HTTP request, asking for username and password at the AP. How do you disable this, and not disable https:// at the WLC?
This is the IP of the AP, not the controller. I only want to allow SSH to the AP's, for diagnostic support when neccesary.
I have other 5508's running 7.0.98.0, 7.0.240.0, and 7.3.116.0, and they do not do this.

This issue is:
CSCuf66202    HTTP port 80 open on Access Points when controller is 7.4.100.0
To be fixed in the 7.4 MR1 release, due out this summer.
In general, lightweight APs are not supposed to have TCP port 80 open, unless they are operating in OEAP mode.
As far as manually configuring "no ip http server" on the AP - this does not survive a reboot. TAC has asked for a general purpose way to configure lightweight APs:
CSCsy17873    support general purpose method of configuring APs
This has not been committed ... if people in the field think this would be useful, please communicate that to your friendly neighborhood Cisco sales team.
Cheers,

How to permanently disable local TimeMachine backups?

Hi,
I have disabled the local TimeMachine using:
sudo tmutil disablelocal
That all works fine but after a reboot, the local backups are back again. For some reason this setting doesn't survives a reboot.
Can nayone give me some advise on how to permanently disable local TimeMachine backups?
Dennis

Here's how I permanently disable TM local snapshots:
1. create ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.wfiveash.disable_tmlsnaps.plist containing:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>Label</key>
    <string>com.wfiveash.disable_tmlsnaps</string>
    <key>ProgramArguments</key>
    <array>
        <string>/Users/willf/bin/disable_tmlsnaps.ksh</string>
    </array>
    <key>WatchPaths</key>
    <array>
        <string>/Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist</string>
    </array>
</dict>
</plist>
2. create a shell script ~/bin/disable_tmlsnaps.ksh:
#!/bin/ksh -p
# This script is supposed to be run via launchd (see
# ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.wfiveash.disable_tmlsnaps.plist) when launchd
# detects a change to the TimeMachine.plist file. This script will determine
# if TM local snapshots has been enabled via the MobileBackups property and if
# it has it will run the setuid disable_tmlsnaps binary.
# prevent launchd throttling respawn warning, must wait 10s before this script exits
sleep 10
integer lsnaps=-1
lsnaps=$(defaults read /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist MobileBackups)
if [[ $lsnaps -eq 1 ]]
then
    exec "${HOME}/bin/i386/disable_tmlsnaps"
elif [[ $lsnaps -eq -1 ]]
then
    # there was an error running defaults
    exit 1
else
    exit 0
fi
3. Lastly compiled this C program and named it ~/bin/i386/disable_tmlsnaps. I set the permissions so it was owned by root and setuid:
* To build: gcc -o disable_tmlsnaps disable_tmlsnaps.c
* sudo chown root:wheel disable_tmlsnaps
* sudo chmod u+s disable_tmlsnaps
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int
main (int argc, char *argv[])
    int rc;
    rc = setuid(0);
    if (rc == 0)
        rc = system("/usr/bin/tmutil disablelocal");
    return rc;
=================================================================
Now when /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist is modified (which happens when TM is enabled or disabled) launched will run my disable_tmlsnaps.ksh script which will check to see if it needs to disable TM local snapshots.

How can I disable the system feature which automatically restarts applications i had open during a previous session ?

How can I disable the system feature which automatically restarts applications i had open during a previous session ?

When you log out, uncheck the box to reopen applications. If you're still using 10.7.3, then you will have to uncheck the back with each shutdown or restart.
10.7.4 update was suppose to fix it that when you uncheck the box, it should remain unchecked for restarts after that.

How can I disable "Fingerprint Software" for programs only?

Hi,
somehow, the "Fingerprint Software" require from user to swipe a finger anytime he open programs that require from user to insert "user and password."
How can I disable it permanently just for program and not for log-on?
Thanks.

I would have thought (hoped) this would do the job. In my case with the Truesuite Access manager software General Settings configured with the Replace Windows password logon with fingerprint logon checkbox unticked the fingerprint access logon appears whenever I go to a browser login that requires a user name and password to be specified. I have made the change to the General Settings and rebooted the computer and logged on by typing in my logon credentials. I have wiped out all the internet settings in the browser. Yet every time I visit this browser page to login the fingerprint access dialog pops up to infuriate me.
Some postings on the internet suggest this fingerprint access is too much hassle to bother with and I am starting to believe it.

How can I disable the "go to last visited slide" option in captivate?

Can anybody tell me how can I disable the "go to last visited slide" option in captivate so that every time when i launch my captivate file from a LMS, it WILL NOT go back to the last visited slide? I know that Lectora has a checkbox for this but i can't seem to find it in Captivate.

Are you deploying on a LMS? In that case check the option 'Never Send Resum Data' in Preferences, Quiz, Reporting, LMS Customization Settings.
If you are not deploying on LMS, check if Self-paced Learning is disabled in the TOC?

Cddb - how do I disable

How can I disable the Gracenote CDDB lookup on iTunes 5 (5.0.1.4, actually)? I'd rather not have iTunes look things up automatically.

The one time I've had this happen, was after installing a new graphics card that had multimedia software with it, and registered itself as the primary software for those files. make sure itunes is the primary, then reboot.

How do you disable mobile account settings/parental controls

My school had a one-to-one macbook program, but I switched schools. Now i have a heavily restricted computer. They had my account set to mobile and had parental controls enabled, so I used single user mode to create a new admin (remove /var/db/.applesetupdone and reboot) and remove them. However, even though no account has parental controls turned on, they are still enabled somewhere for all accounts, even admins. I have two questions: how do i disable mobile account settings, and where are the parental controls files located? I found some in /library/managed preferences/<account name here> , but editing these gives only temporary relief from parental controls, and they are reset when i restart. There has to be somewhere else that parental controls are flagged as on/set to sync on login. i removed the actual parental controls executables and stuff somewhere in /system but after that i couldnt open activity monitor and i didnt want to risk a reboot. please help me as this is very annoying. btw im on OS X 10.6.7

HI,
Try this..
Open System Preferences/MobileMe and select the Sync tab.
Deselect the box where you see: Synchronize with MobileMe. The last sync will noted at the bottom left side of the window.

How do i disable HPET (High Precision Event Timer) on Lenovo G770?

Hello,
How do i disable the HPET settings from the laptop (G770)? I noticed tearing on my videos and occassionaly microstuttering. The same was present on my self-built desktop. I disabled HPET on the bios of my Asus motherboard and there were no longer tearing and the microstuttering dissappeared.
The bios on the G770 is so basic that its basically useless. How do I disable the HPET?
