How to stop Bridge from auto-launching

I recently enabled a option to auto launch Bridge and I think I did it through inDesign CS5.
Where do I stop Bridge from auto launching?
Thank you for any help!
Best,
John

You may find that it's not a 'Bridge' thing. I presume you are on a Mac... and have the lastest OS?
When you do a hard shut down and then restart, any apps that were open will re-open.
Also if you quit a program with something open. Quitting and restarting the program automatically opens what was previously open.
I find that I have gotten into the habit of closing before quitting... quite annoying.
I hope I didn't go off topic too much...

  • How do I stop iTunes from auto-launching when connecting iPod.

    I have found one method of doing this set out below.
    You may want to stop iTunes from auto-launching whenever you plug in your iPod. To do this, open iTunes, and select the iPod in the left-hand Source window. Four buttons will then appear in the lower right-hand corner of the iTunes window. Click the left-most button with the iPod icon on it. This will bring up the iPod Preferences dialog. Uncheck the option labeled "Open iTunes when attached." You probably also want to prevent iTunes from trying to automatically synchronize your iPod when you connect by selecting the "Manually manage songs and playlists" option in the same Preferences dialog.
    I am unable to find the iPod icon in the left hand Source window, maybe if I connect my iPod an icon will appear, but I don't want to do this in case stuff is transferred between the iPod and Comp or vice versa.
    Sorry to be so long winded, but it was difficult to explain without being so.
    If any one knows of another way to do what I am trying to do
    Perhaps they would let me know.

    okay. in a 7.0.x, we no longer get the "ipod options" icon when the ipod is plugged in and selected in the sourcelist (the area to the left of the iTunes screen). instead, the ipod options and preferences display for us in the main library screen.
    "Open iTunes when this ipod is connected" is kept down at the bottom of the "Summary" tab. (scroll down to the bottom of that tab to see everything under the "Options" heading.)
    "manually manage music" (or "manually manage music and videos" if you've got a video-capable ipod) is also kept down at the bottom of the "Summary" tab in the Options area.
    for a technique for connecting the ipod without automatically syncing (if you have an automatic syncing option set on the ipod already), and then changing the options to "manually manage music", see:
    How to keep iTunes from automatically updating your iPod
    unfortunately, that document is also written for itunes 6.0.x or earlier. so in your case the instructions under the "Now that you're logged in as the Guest user, it's time to get back to iTunes and your iPod:" section at steps 4, 5 and 6 should read:
    4. Scroll down to the bottom of the Summary Tab
    5. Check the "Manually manage music" checkbox.
    6. Click "Apply".

  • Stop Bridge from Auto Expanding Across Monitors

    This has been happening for a while, but my bridge usually lives on my right screen but it will sometimes automatically span across both of my monitors when I do an action like create a new folder and then it blows up all the thumbnails so their huge. It's becoming annoying and if anyone knows how to stop this from happening I would greatly appreciate it. My machine is running windows 7 and no other app does this, only bridge.
    Thanks

  • How to prevent iTunes from auto-launching at login

    For some reason, after every restart or logout/login, iTunes will auto-launch at login.
    I initially thought that iTunes Helper in Login Items may be the culprit. So, I removed it from the list of Login Items. But, iTunes still launches automatically after login.
    How can I prevent the auto launch?

    Yup. I think this may have to do with .itms files. Apple has allowed web sites to open itunes with an autolaunch command. I think that the .itms files are the ones that auto launch itunes. I think what we are suffering here is a misuse of the itunes autolaunch command. Web developers seem to be able to launch itunes and try to display their products for purchase. It seems like Itunes has been turned into a 'Pop-Up' advertisement. I hope Apple takes notice and fixes it. I have been having this problem since I got this new i5 Imac in January.

  • How to stop Lightroom from auto-adjusting RAW files

    Is there a way to stop Lightroom from automatically "fixing" my RAW files? When I first load them in they look perfect (like they do on the back of my camera), but then LR auto-adjusts them to make them dull and desaturated and not at all contrasty. Is there a way that I can set LR to not do anything to the files and let me decide what I want the original to look like?

    I totally understand where II is coming from. I too find it bothersome that in some images, the pre-processed preview is a more pleasing image than the unprocessed RAW. At the same time, it is the unprocessed nature of the RAW image that is the whole attraction and point to shooting RAW. An obvious workaround (if one is willing of course) is to shoot RAW+JPEG so as to either have the JPEG as a "target" reference or final image when suitable. And that is an option I used to employ until I got tired of dealing with the issues of essentially doubling the number of images I was working with.
    I do disagree with II's thought that the preview showing up is slowing down any processing of the RAW image. It would seem to me that the whole reason the preview is showing up is that it is a prerendered aspect of the file that pops up while the actual preview rendering is taking place. While I don't claim to have technical knowledge as to how this all works, I would think that LR is simply showing the initial rendering of what the RAW file is telling LR it looks like until LR can actually make it's OWN interpretation. Either way, the process is fast enough that it isn't a huge issue to me on my system. In fact, those images where I see a vast difference between the inital preview image and the LR rendered resolve no slower than the rest.
    It is interesting to know that there are applications/utilities out there that will extract that inital preview though. I thionk it would be very cool if LR made use of such a capability more directly as an option.
    Anyway, while the frequency of my use of LR so far pales in comparison to that of PS and Bridge, so far I can say that such discrepency between nice looking inital preview and less than so RAW is far less common than it is working with PS and Bridge CS2.

  • How do I stop iPhoto from auto-launching?

    I'm running the latest version of OS X and iPhoto, this has been going on for 2 years or more and I still can't figure out a solution. So I figured maybe something new is out there where someone might have a clue why I'm experiencing this.
    I cannot keep iPhoto from launching on my Mac. I'm not plugging in any peripherals, there is no event taking place that is causing iPhoto to logically launch, I'm not connecting a camera or USB stick or anything. It just launches. It's like an app version of the Walking Dead, I can't kill this **** thing and I have not yet figured out how to put a stake through its brain. I like iPhoto when I actually want to use it, which is rarely. But it loads when I first boot up (even though it is NOT listed in my startup apps), and if I quit it, between 10-60 minutes later I'll be typing away working on something and boom, it just launches again. There's no pattern to it, it just won't stay quit.
    Ayone have any clue why this might be happening? I've really grown to hate this app.

    Frank, it does it at 2 different "times":
    First, EVERY time I reboot, iPhoto launches.
    Second, just randomly, but usually within 20-30 minutes after I've quit the application. In fact, it just did it again.
    So, I went to the Console to see if there was anything there and there was a bunch, but I've no idea what it means. Lots of references of mdworker. I'll paste the relevant sections of the Console below, maybe it means something to someone smarter than me. One line of it that repeats that I find interesting is this:
    find suspect file using: sudo mdutil -t 778167
    anywhere, here it is. iPhoto relaunched at about 1:04 or so.

  • How to stop logic from auto-snapping a midi recording to a grid?

    Everytime I record midi from my keyboard, logic auto snaps the size of the region to fill in to the next and previous complete bar. Is there some way to stop this? I've looked through the manual but can't find much. Thank you!

    There are options for snap values at the top of the Arrange Window, plus you can set them for individual Tracks.
    To fix the Regions which have already been recorded, you can simply drag the ends of the Region to where you actually want them to go (the cursor turns into a kind of bracket-with-an-arrow-in-it, a bit like this: ∑ when you're in the right place for end dragging). You can even tidy up several Regions at once. But of course you need to fix your snap value first!

  • How to stop iPhoto from automatically launching?

    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    NOTE: this is not the same as routinely backing up your entire iPhoto library folder to protect your photos. It only protects the loss of your organizational efforts that the database file contains.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • How to stop Calendar from auto-completing addresses?

    When I want to add both the name and location of a place for a Calendar event's location (say, the name and address of a restaurant), Calendar and/or its integration with Maps will auto-complete the address.  But when it does, it removes the name, and only fills the address.
    Almost every time I then try to manually enter the name, it still changes it to address-only when I save it.
    Example:
    What I want it to look like:
    Restaurant Name
    123 Address Rd
    City, ST 00000
    But what it auto-fills:
    123 Address Rd
    City, ST 00000
    United States
    How do I get it to stop auto-changing it, and to accept my changes the way I want them?

    agreed!
    tho, i seem to be able to go back & "edit" it to put the restaurant name back in - but when i do, it looses the map connection (argh).

    Assume you are talking about Camera Raw.  Depends on what you have set for defaults in ACR.  You can set up your own preferences and make that the default.
