I can't stop Calendar from starting at start-up since Mountain Lion upgrade.

I upgraded to Mountain Lion a few days ago and since then my Calendar app starts up whenever I start my MBP.
I have checkec my system preferences for the account login applications, and it's not checked. I also check the Calendar app settings and it doesn't say to automatically start up anywhere.
Is this a new feature of this OS? how can I change this?
Thanks!

Nope.
The problem is this: applications that are running (e.g. chrome, spotify) start up again after restarting the macbook even though I unchecked the box to 'reopen windows at startup'. Furthermore, the Calendar application starts automatically at startup even if this wasn't open when the macbook was shut down.
So, 1) running apps restart no matter the startup settings I use, and 2) the Calendar app (this one only) starts at startup even if it's not running at shutdown.
Other suggestions?

  • How can I stop Calendar from formatting the location of an event?

    When I enter the event's location (e.g. Concert Hall, 123 Main Street) Calendar breaks it up into multiple fields and sorts them alphabetically (e.g. "123 Main Street" and"Concert Hall"). It also tags each field with "!", meaning presumably that the location was not found in a directory or contact list. I'd like to stop Calendar from doing _anything_ "smart' to the location info and just display it exactly as I enter it. Any ideas on whether this is possible? Thanks much!

    The site file is a database that keeps track of all your assets (and much more), including the scriptLib file. As soon as the page is saved (when you use the site file and it's open) the link will be change to the correct path that will work on the server.
    If you're not using the site file you might as well use a text editor, since most of GL functionality is gone.

  • How can I stop iTunes from trying to start in another open user account?

    When I run iTunes, it often tries to open in another open User account, causing distracting Windows warning tones.  How can I stop it from trying to automatically open in the other account?

    Close iTunes before switching profiles or disable fast user switching.

  • Can't stop IPhoto from opening at start-up

    When I start-up IPhoto overrides everything, and becomes the defacto start-up application. Any ideas on what I can do to stop it?

    Many months ago when I was using Leopard I had the same problem and found that the issue was in Image Capture. Since then I upgraded to Snow Leopard however here is what I think I did to resolve the issue:
    1. Command Spacebar, then type Image Capture to launch the app
    2. At the lower you will see the an upside triangle inside a box, click on that. If you see iPhoto chosen as a start up item then delete it and that should resolve the problem.
    NOTE: I just tried to replicate this in SL however I see the box indicated in step 2 is now gone.
    Please let us know if that helps.

  • How can I deinstall Mavericks from my Mac book OS X Mountain Lion

    I want to deinstall Maverick from my Mac Book and go back to Mountain lion

    I did not expect so many changes  when I was upgrading to Maverick. I even cannot acess my i photo Library ( because it is on external harddisk and in the Mountain lion version?)
    iPhoto must be updated to use in Mavericks. Don't do this as it will update your iPhoto Library to the new version making it unusable on Mountain Lion, but if you start iPhoto while holding down the Option key, you can then tell iPhoto where your Library is located

  • Can't open powerpoint files in keynote since Mountain Lion upgrade

    Not having much luck and not sure which forum to post in as this could be a Mountain Lion issue, an iWork issue, but is also an iWork and/or IOS6 issue!
    Until last week I had Lion on iMac and IOS5 on iPad. I was able to log on to my work network server (school network, I am a teacher) and open powerpoint, word or excel files in keynote, pages or numbers on my iPad. I then upgraded to IOS6 and now none of the files will open up on my iPad. I get the open in screen when I choose a file to open, then nothing happens.
    In the meantime, I upgraded my iMac from Lion to Mountain Lion. Since I was having problems accessing my work files and viewing them on my iPad, I decided to buy Keynote on my iMac in the hope that I could get on with some work on iMac rather than iPad. I logged on to my school server and tried to open a powerpoint file and for some reason it downloads it as a pptx.exe and if I try to open it I get an error message saying "You can't open the application xxx.pptx.exe because Microsoft Windows applications are not supported on OSX". It shouldn't be a .exe file it should just be a powerpoint file! When I open Keynote and look for available files on my iMac, the file I just downloaded is greyed out.
    Hmmmmm so I have an iMac, an iPad, two versions of the Keynote app (plus numbers and pages on the ipad) and can't open any of my files from my school network. That seems a lot of money in one pot Apple and something has changed from Lion to Mountain Lion, and from IOS5 to IOS6 which is preventing me from doing my work. IOS5 allowed me to open any ppt, xls, doc, pptx, xlsx, docx file from my school network so why since upgrading to IOS6 can I suddenly not open them??
    Now having forked out for Keynote on my iMac, I have the same problem.
    I am able to open attachments in emails and I am able to log on to the school VLE and access and open files. So it is just something to do with opening from the normal file system that I can't do.
    I posted in the iPad and iWork forum and had no replies. However, Apple iWork team have contacted me after reading my post re the iPad issue of opening files from my network. I've provided info to them and am waiting for a response, but in the meantime I have now discovered there is also an issue on my iMac. Hopefully they will read this too or someone else will perhaps know what is going on.
    It is a worry that I can't do any work using my Apple products seeing as I have bought them! I have had to go back to bringing my windows laptop home everyday which I hope is a short term solution. I have loved the fact that I could access everything on my school network from my iPad in the past and not have to drag a laptop around. I am also worried that this means pupils can't access the files too if they are using Macs, iphones, ipads etc and have upgraded to Mountain Lion or IOS6.
    Hoping someone can help
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for the response but I think you've misunderstood the problem. I can not open any type of PowerPoint file off my server in keynote. This includes .ppt and .pptx files. (Also includes .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx in pages and numbers).
    Even if what you said worked it would take forever to go through every file and save them all as ppt 2007. Plus of course, I don't know what files I will need when. There are hundreds of resources I need to access when I'm at home. I need the flexibility to view the files when i need to and on the go. Normally I can download them off my school network on to my iPad in keynote and edit them then I email them back to myself ready to use the next day or to save back to my network. Currently I can not download any Microsoft office file. So I am now forced to have to lug my laptop home everyday, rendering my iPad and iMac useless. I can't pre-empt what I'll need and save it as .ppt as that is completely inflexible and that won't open anyways as this is not an issue with the version of PowerPoint file. This is an issue with how all Microsoft files are downloading from my school network to my iPad and iMac. I want Apple to allow this to work like it used to before the upgrades in operating systems. I wish I hadn't upgraded as it worked perfectly. :(

  • Mac pro not sleeping since mountain lion upgrade from Lion

    Hi, just wondering if anybody was having problems with their mac not sleeping after upgrading to Mountain Lion. The screen no longer blanks either, screensaver just runs until I move the mouse etc. all was fine under Lion, tried various things, stopping program's etc to no avail. I can force sleep manually just not happening when set to in energy saver settings. Machine is a mid 2010 mac pro, would of thought it shouldn't of have any issues running ML! Odd how the screen power down isn't working either. I'm out of ideas, must be a bug of some sort.

    Problem turned out to be a sidewinder USB joystick. Once unplug sleep resumed as scheduled.

  • Can't stop motherboard from overclocking on start up

    Just put together a new computer for recording studio using parts from several old computers.
    I used a MSI P35 Platinum mobo (not because i want to overclock, just thought it might be a great mobo)
    on start up it stops and starts 4x and then says it's overclocked, then displays the CMOS,
    I don't even have to change any of the settings, I can even select exit CMOS w/out saving changes and then it starts up.   Can't figure out why this happens, Once up and going it runs great and doesn't overclock while running.
    Whats causing this and how do I fix it ??
    MSI P35 Platinum LGA 775 Intel P35
    Intel core2 Quad Q6600  @2.40 Ghz

    There are only two "stickers" on board.
    There should be a sticker on the BIOS Chip.  As the chip itself is very small, the sticker is not the biggest one itself.  So you have to open your eyes really wide to see it and read what it says on it.  I will attach another picture showing the exact location of the chip.
    However, since you seem to be able to enter BIOS Setup, you can simply look for the BIOS Version there (look unter "Standard CMOS Features" -> "System Information")

    I don't know about your Preview problem and I am interested to see responses about it.
    When you say no iPhoto in Finder. Do you mean iPhoto is not listed in the Applications folder? If you do a Finder search on iPhoto is it found. Mine is in "Bobs HD>Applications

  • Can I stop iOS7 from downloading if I've already started it?

    Can I stop iOS7 from downloading if it's already started?

    It will automatically download when there is sufficiant space. There is no way to prevent it or to delete the download. If he doesn't want it, he'll have to leave it there and not click Install.

  • Can I stop Safari from starting when connecting to a network on my iPad?

    Can I stop Safari from starting when connecting to a network on my iPad?
    On my home network the wi-fi connection happens automatically without opening Safari. But on my work network, when attempting to make a connection the iPad lets me enter my user name and password, but then tries to open the webpage www.apple.com, which is blocked by iPrism as entertainment, so I can't actually connect to that network. oes anyone know a fix for this problem?

    The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
    It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.
