How to make Bluetooth default on every time T500 boots

Hi everyone,
I am a new T500 2081 user. I did a Windows 7 pro x64 clean install and was able to install all the ThinkVantage software including the hotkey driver, so I can use Fn+F5 to activate the Bluetooth. The problem is everytime I restart my T500 the Bluetooth is off by default. I have to press Fn+F5 to activate it again and again. I am getting a Thinkpad Bluetooth laser mouse and it will be a pain if I have to activate my mouse every time the computer is restarted.
When I boot my computer in Ubuntu 9.10 on another partition of the hard drive the Bluetooth is always on, so I guess the issue in Windows 7 is a software setting one. Any idea how to fix it? Thank you!!!

Does anyone have the same problem?
I found this description at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-57107#notturnon, answer to question #2: "Whenever you start the computer or resume operation after it has been in standby or hibernation mode, you must turn on the Bluetooth features."
Does that mean you just always have to press Fn+F5 everytime?
This information is quite old and most likely not valid for newer systems. Bluetooth should remain on as long as it was enabled during the last boot and the radio hasn't been shut off.. That being said I would look in your power profile and make sure the system isn't shutting down the bluetooth radio when there are no devices connected. (or after sleep). This would make you have to turn it on every time.
Also I would check the bluetooth settings and make sure there aren't any settings which leave it shutoff by default, this could also be considered a possible security feature.
Sorry I don't have any more complete information to offer since my thinkpad didn't come with bluetooth... I wanted the turbo drive

How to make Firefox notify me every time other software tries to install ff plug-in?

If I'm noy confusing things, there was a feature that informed a user about new plug-ins insltalled by other programs.
For example, I install VLC media player. VLC ff plug-in is installed also. What I want is: the next time I launch firefox, a message appear that asks whether I want to use new plug-in (VLC plug-in) or not.
Sorry for my english, thank you.

when we said Add-ons, we mean extensions, themes, and plugins, it is all types of add-ons (if i understand clearly what you ask), see: [http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/disable-or-remove-add-ons#os=win7&browser=fx16 Disable or remove Add-ons].
but if you install a program outside of firefox you can not take any notification from firefox, it is not possible, like downloading new version of Flash player, then install the version with closed firefox, you can not take any notification but when you open firefox you can see that Flash player is updated.
thanks

ITunes Makes Me Log in Every Time I Open It

iTunes v. 12.0.1.26 and Yosemite updates recently installed. 2012 27" iMac
iTunes makes me log in every time I open it. I thought the problem was fixed in THIS THREAD and it was a very helpful set of instructions by Linc but the problem keeps recurring.
I reposted the question in that thread, but since the thread is marked as solved I'm afraid no one will see it. So I'm reposting here.
Situation:
Upon opening iTunes I get messages popping up telling me to
Sign in to iTunes to use this computer for automatic downloads
Sign in to iTunes for iTunes Radio to use autodowload
Sign in to iTunes to check for downloads
(repeat of) Sign in to iTunes to use this computer for automatic downloads
Sign in to use iTunes Store
These happen one after another, rapidly. Every time. I called Apple help as well and they didn't have any further help.
I've repaired permissions, trashed my plist for iTunes from my Library, done all of Linc's instruction in the other thread.

Back up all data before proceeding.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
          Change Settings for Keychain "login"
In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
From the menu bar, select
          Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
If the box marked
          Keep login keychain unlocked
is not checked, check it.
Select
          Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

TS3284 This apple fix is crazy, I have to this every time I boot the computer, is this right, is there another way to permanently make my calibrated profile automatically boot too !

This profile fix suggested by apple as a workaround to set calibrated profiles is most un Apple like, I have to do this preference/colur fix every time I boot, Is there a better way to have my preferred profile boot too !

Are you in fact using 10.7.3? The article you link to was for a once-off problem after an upgrade to 10.6.3.
How did you make the custom profile? I would suggest deleting any non-Apple profiles, remake your profile, and see does it auto-load on boot.
If it doesn't, then immediately after boot run console.app and scan through the console messages from the boot process and see are any relevant ones being posted. Then repost your problem details in one of the 10.7 (Lion) forums.

How can I keep iPhot 09 from starting up every time I boot my Intel iMac? I am using OSX 10.6.8

How can I keep iPhoto 09 from opening every time I boot my Intel iMac? I am using OSX 10.6.8

IF it is opening in import mode:
Do you have an external drive or device (iPhone, USB key) plugged into iPhoto? If so, there are some photo files on it that make iPhoto think it has photos to import. Remove the device, delete the photos or move the photos to another folder on the device.
If it is not openeing in import mode, it must be in your startup items. Drag it from there.

IPhoto starts every time we boot our MBP

iPhoto starts up every time we boot our MBP from a full shutdown. How do we make it stop?
Thanks!

Since you are learning, when you right-click or ctrl-click on a dock icon, you will get a contextual menu. One of the Items is to have the program start at login. You may have accidentally done this with iPhoto which may explain how it got into the login items.

Imac loose airport network setting like password every time i boot...

Hi everybody,
maybe someone can help me. I use a imacg5. I connect via airport extreme to an avm router. I use WPA. Every time i boot my imac, there is no connection to the router. I have to go to internet connection, choose a "other" network, type in a new name for the network, switch to WPA and enter my password. After that everything is fine and works until i rebbot the machine. After that, the network is gone and i have to make one again. This only means, i have to do that under the airport icon at the top of os. Under preferences, network there is still the connection with correct password, but the imac will not use it. Also there is no possibility to save my password. My qestion is: how is it possible to save my network, encryption and password. Liek i told, under preferences everything is fine, the connection stays there after reboot. Only the internet connection will lost all settings. Maybe anyone can help, i´am a new mac user too, owning my imac only for 3 months (cannot believe, i worked so much years with a pc)...
Thanks a lot

'Select WLAN Network' every time I boot! Grr.

I can't wait to get rid of my Nokia E71 - the most infuriating, badly designed, buggy piece of technology ever 'created' (more like shoved into existence). In the meantime I am stuck with it on contract, and have one (well 15) particularly annoying bug:
Every time it boots, it says 'Select WLAN Network'. Of course the geniuses at Nokia do not tell you what application is requesting this, or why, and no matter how many times I select my home network, and enter the WPA key (which is already saved as the default access point anyway as well as already being connected via VoIP), it asks me again and again every time I reboot.
If I am out of WLAN (it's called Wi-Fi Nokia BTW) range, it gives a 'No WLAN Network Found' error on boot instead, and forces me to press OK. Absolutely waste of time.
Can you advise how to remove this one-aggravating-annoyance-too-many-feature please?
If I email Nokia support, they just tell me to take my phone to my nearest service centre. I will do one day, and shove it up their ~~~TRANSMISSION ENDS

What provider are you under contract with? As my E71 certainly does NOT do what you describe. I have seen on these forums that the provider 3 (or someone else) has custom firmware that apparently attaches to the network all the time for some reason. The posts I have read so far do not mention anything happening like yours so I am unsure what is going on.

Dealing With The Resume Feature of Lion
Managing Mac OS X Lion's application resume feature.
If you shutdown your computer you should get a dialog asking if you want applications to resume on the next startup. Simply uncheck the box to prevent that from occurring. Open General preferences and uncheck the option to Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps. You can also install a third-party utility to control resume features on individual applications: RestoreMeNot or Application State Cleaner.
It is possible to completely stop the Resume feature although I'm unconvinced that it is that annoying. Nevertheless see the following:
If you have not yet done so you must first make your /Home/Library/ folder visible. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder. At the prompt paste the following command line:
chflags nohidden ~/Library
Press RETURN. Quit the Terminal application.
In the Finder navigate to the /Home/Library/Saved Application State/ folder. Delete the contents of the folder. Back up to the /Home/Library/ folder. Select the Saved Application State folder. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Sharing and Permissions panel at the bottom click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window.
Quit all open programs except the Finder (this is very important.) Next, navigate to the /Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/ folder. Look for a .plist file with "com.apple.loginwindow." in the file name followed by some numbers in hexadecimal. Select the file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window and in the Sharing and Permissions panel click on the lock icon and authenticate. Set each of the listed entries to Read Only. Close the Get Info window. If you also find a file with the same filename but with a last extension of ".lockfile," then you should delete it.
The above should eliminate the Resume feature system-wide. Note that any future system updates or upgrades will likely undo these changes. You will then need to repeat this procedure assuming there are no major changes in OS X related to it.

Different anomaly every time I boot Need some assistance Please

Hello,
I have just put a new system together and am having serious problems in the boot up. Each time it boots I am getting a different anomaly. Here is a list of them, each happen a different time I start the system and have occurred multiple times in no order.
1.   No video
2.   8Xtreme splash screen then freeze
3.   boots stating “CMOS check sum error: defaults loaded” then freezes
4.   boots further stating something about nothing connected to the FastTrak controller : No Bios Installed.
5.   Runs DMI Pool then freezes.
I have only gotten into the Bios 2 times out of about 30 tries and on almost every reboot my keyboard does not function. The keyboard in the PS2 port never works and has only worked a few times in the USB port. I am also having an issue with the MEMORY. All 4 chips are not registering.
I have tried several combinations of different things like clearing the CMOS, pulling 2 of the Memory chips out, changing the keyboard port. It is really the strangest thing I have ever seen happen. Because I am having a different result every time I boot I can not trouble shoot this. If anyone has any idea please let me know as I am just plain stumped.
My system:
Main board - MSI GNBMAX-FISR E7205 8x AGP D
Processor – Intel Pentium 4 (Northwood) 3.06 GHz, 533MHz FSB, Socket 478
Video card – MSI FX5600-VTD256 GeForce FX AGP 8x 256MB DDR
Memory – (4) 512M-PC2100 (184 pin DDR DIMM non ECC 266MHz)
HHD – (2) Maxtor 120GB 7200RPM
Thank you in advance,
Acinom

Thank you for your reply!! I have plexi-glass standoffs on it so I am sure that there is no shorting out in that way, perhaps another though (I will check). I am still having problems with the boot up changing each time but I am able to get in to the system about every 3 boot ups but again the board is not recognizing all four memory chips only two of them. AND I just restarted and got a black screen... rebooted again and it froze on the 8xtreme spash.... It's just crazy. Any ideas??? I am not a complete newbie at this I have built other systems and I have a full Innovatek water cooling system (upgraded) on it running just fine. My monitor is showing on (green light) it is a ViewSonic but no picture right now only black.
