How do I re-order the Login Items?

I would like to rearrange the Login items:
I have 8 items listed, but the server item (10.0.0.x) is near the bottom, and
I think that by the time Entourage and the other items load, the server mount
command times out.
They dont appear to be in alphabetical order- do I need to remove and re-apply
in the desired order?
1. How can I bring the server item to the top?
2. Bonus question: Why does the server show up as "Unknown" in the "Kind" column?
Thanks!

Hi, the "unknown" part is your problem - if it should be your server log-in, then it would be given its name.
See these articles for info.

Try deleting the "unknown", then adding your server again to log-in items.
Best wishes,

Can an AppleScript tell if it was activated by the LogIn Items?

I want to use a single script to act as a StartUp (LogIn) item that does a task automatically and that acts as an app that is clickable with dialog-box options.
So far, I have the script recognize that it's in the StartUp folder or in the loginwindow.plist file, that the other secondary app that the script activates isn't already running, and it checks to see how long the user has been logged in.
I have (do shell script "w") to get minutes logged in. I set my script to run the StartUp portion if the login time is 0 (by way of (if ReadThisSucka contains " --" then). It has worked OK so far, but I'd rather replace it with something more reliable and accurate like this:
if process of login tasks is active
or if thisApp was activated by user "login task doer" then...
*on run*
--Is the other app running?
tell application "Finder"
set OtherAppStatus to (get exists of application process "application2")
end tell
--Is the MagicScript a login item?
set theFileContents to (read file ((path to preferences as text) & "loginwindow.plist"))
--Gets the time logged in
set CurrentDate to (do shell script "w")
--If logged in time is - - then it will act like a startup item
if (CurrentDate contains " - -") then
set BeginUpTime to "1"
else
set BeginUpTime to "0"
end if
--If it is a login item, it will use this app
if (theFileContents contains "MagicScript") and (OtherAppStatus is false) and (BeginUpTime is "1") then
do shell script "wow, I'm a shell script"
else
--If it isn't a LogIn Item, it will do this
if OtherAppStatus is false then
display dialog "To run the function of application2, click App2." buttons {"Cancel", "App2"} with icon 1
if button returned of result = "App2" then
do shell script "wow, I'm a shell script"
end if
else
display dialog "To stop the App2, click Stoppit." buttons {"Cancel", "Stoppit"} with icon 1
if button returned of result = "Stoppit" then
--do shell script "killall App2"
tell application "App2" to quit
end if
end if
end if
end run

I realized that I had two viable solutions:
1. Have the script check and see if it is in the LogIn Items and if the login timer (part of the OS) started less than 1 minute ago.
2. Create a second app for the startup script that automatically starts.
I'd be open to a third option, but this works for now.

When i login to my mac, it opens iTunes, Skype and AIM. I've tried deleting these from the login items, but they are not on the list. Can anyone help?

If you do not lock that folder immediately after deleting all the contents, it will simply populate again (Resume - a "feature" in Lion). You do that by doing a Get Info (highlight folder and press Command + I keys), unlock the lock at the bottom, enter your admin password, then check the box to lock the folder. lock the lock and you're done.
Yes, that is correct. The alternative is to quit all applications prior to logging out. Lion will then have a chance to remove the saved states.

And, for the OP:
It has also been a regular feature of Mac OS to automatically open any window that was open at shutdown. To avoit that behavior, simply close any Finder windows and properly quit applications by closing their window and using Command + Q (or File >Quit).
This was true only for the Finder. Prior to Lion, no other apps would launch unless they were included in the Login Items for the account. And the OS would not restore windows for other apps.
A very small number of apps (TextWrangler is an example) implemented this capability prior to Lion. They could restore previously opened windows. But that is an application feature, and can be controlled by the application's preferences. Lion implements it at the system level, and users have virtually no control on a per application basis.

How to get rid of the Login page in Portal?

Hi Guys,
I have a newly developed intranet portal project for my company which does not need login no more. I hope you can help me how to get rid of the login page in portal which is I know in every application you create, there should be a login. Is this possible that I can just simply type in to the URL address bar my application then it will no longer ask for any logins? Please help! Many thanks!
Russel

Hi Russel,
You can give public access to pages, applications etc. Users won't need to supply a username/password then, while you still can hide some of the pages to authorized people.
Check the access tab for pages and the manage tab for applications.

The user acct my apple was connected to no longer works (corrupt). My Apple TV is still synced to that account and all of my recent purchases are going to that username. Does anyone know how to get all of the purchased items back and to the new user?

The user profile my appleTV was synced on my computer to no longer works (corrupt). My Apple TV is still synced to that profile and all of my recent purchases are going to that username. Does anyone know how to get all of the purchased items back and to the new user (same computer)? I created a new user on my computer and moved the itunes folder to the desktop but never changed the path to which the apple synced to. Now I can only see old items I purchased before the user profile went bad. PLease help!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Changing the library the Apple TV is synced with will delete all synced content from the Apple TV, but it won't delete purchased content.
You should be able to change the library, resync any content you want and transfer your purchases back to the new library.

How do you get to the "Multiple Item Information" window so I can click "Part of a compilation:?

How do you get to the "Multiple Item Information" window so I can click "Part of a compilation"? When I transfer a CD to iTunes, and the CD has ten tracks, it loads as ten different albums. Also, once this happens, do I have to delete the album and start over or is there a way to merge the albums in iTunes? Using iTunes 10.04.08.

And you've made me remember that using the compilation flag may only work in iTunes if you go into the Songs view, then use View > Column Browser > Show Column Browser and then View > Column Browser > Group Compilations to make sure this line is ticked.
It is also best if View > Column Browser > Use Album Artists is also ticked.

Are you using the Office for Mac 2011 version, as you need to do? The Office for Mac 2004 is Not at all compatible with Mountain Lion, and the 2008 version has been noted to have some problems running with ML.
Hope this helps

Is it possible to SORT the Login Items on

Is it possible to SORT the Login Items on
Apple - System Preferences - System - Accounts - Login Items?
Useful to load one of them before or after the others.
Thanks?

I don't think you can sort them like that but you can achieve this by using apple script.
for example if you want to launch Mail first and Safari second, paste the following into script editor and save it as an application.
tell application "Mail" to launch
tell application Safari to launch
You can also put a delay between the two:
tell application "Mail" to launch
delay 3
tell application Safari to launch
this will put a delay of 3 seconds between launches. Now remove Safari and Mail from login items and put the app you made using apple script there instead.

SIMBL Agent: Why is it in the login items settings?

SIMBL Agent: Why is it in the login items settings?
I don't remember to install it.
Is it safe to unmark or remove it?

Uninstall "SIMBL" or "EasySIMBL" as follows. Back up all data before making any changes.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return. A folder will open. From that folder, delete the items listed below (some may be absent.) You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
          Application Support/SIMBL
          InputManagers/SIMBL
          LaunchAgents/net.culater.SIMBL.Agent.plist
          LaunchAgents/net.infinite-labs.SIMBLEnablerForSandboxedApps.plist
          ScriptingAdditions/EasySIMBL.osax
          ScriptingAdditions/SIMBL.osax
Log out and log back in. There may also be an item named "EasySIMBL" in the Applications folder. Delete it, if so.
Make sure you never reinstall any variant of SIMBL. It’s likely to come bundled with another third-party system modfication that depends on it. If you want trouble-free computing, avoid software that makes miraculous changes to other software, especially built-in applications. The only real exception to that rule is Safari extensions, which are mostly safe, and are easy to get rid of when they don’t work. SIMBL and its dependents are not Safari extensions.

Why did Apple OS loose the ability to adjust load order of login items

In OS X.3.9 I was able to adjust the load order of log in items.
I can't do this in OS X.4.11. I would like to adjust two items Mozy and Yahoo! Widgets so that they load last. Although all my log in items including them load they hesitate while Mozy and Yahoo widgets load. I would like to make Yahoo widgets load very last and Mozy next to last.

Another approach which might work would be to delete some, most, or all of your current set of login items and replace them with a single Automator workflow, one set up to open individual applications in a predetermined order.
The workflow would be comprised solely of separate *Launch Application* actions (from Automator's Finder library) and might look like this:
1) *Launch Application* -- click the popup button and select the first application you'd like to open.
2) *Launch Application* -- select the next application you'd like to open.
3) *Launch Application* -- 3rd app.
4) *Launch Application* -- etc, etc, until you reach the last application, which could be Yahoo! Widgets.
From Automator's File menu select Save As > File Format: Application, and add the saved Automator applet to your login items.
Good luck.
