Is it possible to open our application at a specified time ?

I want to do an application that auto Launches itself at a specified time and do its task. For example Anti Virus applications in Windows will launch every day automatically at a specified time given by the user and cleans the system. I searched fully in the net but can't able to get anything that does not violates sandbox. LaunchAgents looks promising but it is not supporting the sandbox. My question is it possible to do this kind of scheduling in OS X ?

Why do I doubt that?
Did you consider NSTimer? If you need something that will automatically install itself and run in the background without user intervention, then you are out of luck. That is precisely what the sandbox is meant to prevent. You are free to develop the application using any of the dozen available methods to do this but you aren't going to be in the Mac App Store.

    when i open my computer the home page is displayed but blocked, it is not possible to open any application, even if my mouse is moving correctly

    You could try wiping the hard drive and reinstalling the OS and all your programs.
    Did you install any programs yesterday?
    If not it may be best to take it to an Apple care center and have it checked out. Take it in while it is asleep so you ccan show then what is happening.

  • "You are opening the application----- for the first time"  error

    I've seen a few people post about this from as far back as 2005 but I haven't found anything that worked for me. I believe I started having this problem after upgrading to Snow Leopard.
    When opening an application, most often Microsoft Office by opening a specific document/file, I get the warning that I'm opening the application for the first time. This is mostly an annoyance but I don't know how to get this error to stop coming up. I saw a suggestion to delete caches and make sure the application was set as default for that file type; these haven't solved the problem yet.
    Thanks!!

    Thanks for the reply, unfortunately I'm not sure it helped. I did recently trash a couple caches, but this was after the problem had started. I found an old post that suggested the cache might be corrupted and that it would be a good idea to trash it.
    The link you posted notes that the deleted cache could cause that problem, but I would think a new cache would be created and it would be resolved. Is it possible I have a setting that's erasing it? How would I change that? It also sounds like in the link you posted that theMacMac's problem eventually went away without explanation.

  • How to open multiple applications at the same time

    I need to open several applications at the same time: Dreamweaver, BBEdit, and Acrobat. Is there a way to smooth this process, so pressing an icon in the dock will open them all for me?

    You could create an applescript to do it.
    tell application "Dreamweaver's Full Name"
    activate
    end tell
    tell application "BBEdit's Full Name"
    activate
    end tell
    tell application "Acrobat's Full Name"
    activate
    end tell
    Replace the quoted text (leaving the quotes) with the full name of the application, and save the applescript as an application bundle, and put it in your dock.
    NOTE: You may have to put the full path to the application for it to work (I.E. /Applications/Dreamweaver.app). If you do, encase the full path in quotes.
    Good luck!

  • Is it possible to open window with FPM embedded multiple times in a dialog?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to open a web dynpro window whose view embeds the FPM_GAF_COMPONENTu2019s FPM_WINDOW multiple times in dialog window?
    I have a web dynpro component WDC1 which use FPM_GAF_COMPONENT and provide the component configuration for FPM.
    Thereu2019s a WINDOW1 (with View1) in WDC1 which has a view container and the FPM_GAF_COMPONENTu2019s FPM_WINDOW is embedded.
    I have a button in WDC1 which create a new dialog window by calling if_wd_window_manager->CREATE_WINDOW as code below.
          lo_window = lo_window_manager->CREATE_WINDOW(
              MODAL                = ABAP_TRUE
              WINDOW_NAME          = 'WINDOW1'
              TITLE                = 'Test opening FPM multiple times'
              CLOSE_BUTTON         = ABAP_TRUE
    *          BUTTON_KIND          =
    *          MESSAGE_TYPE         = IF_WD_WINDOW=>CO_MSG_TYPE_NONE
    *          CLOSE_IN_ANY_CASE    = ABAP_TRUE
    *          MESSAGE_DISPLAY_MODE =
    *          DEFAULT_BUTTON       =
              IS_RESIZABLE         = ABAP_TRUE
    It works for the first time when I click the button, a dialog window opens with my FPM GAF stuff.
    But when I click the button the second time after closing the dialog window, it generates a dump with error message saying u201CComponent Usage Group MESSAGE_AREA_USAGES Already Existsu201D.
    In ST22, the dump was generated in WDDOINIT of view u201CMAINu201D on FPM_GAF_COMPONENT which looks to me like the message manager is already created in the first time.
      lr_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
      lr_usage_group = lr_component->create_cmp_usage_group(
                           name            = 'MESSAGE_AREA_USAGES'
                           used_component  = 'FPM_MESSAGE_MANAGER' ).
      wd_this->mo_message_area_usage = lr_usage_group->add_component_usage( 'MESSAGE_AREA_USAGE' ).
      wd_this->mo_message_area_usage->create_component( 'FPM_MESSAGE_MANAGER' ).
    I tried to remove the component usage of FPM in my WDC1 or delete  the component directly, hoping that this will clear the memory , but doesnu2019t work, only bring more different dumps  which make this look like a wrong direction as I am interfering the lifecycle of FPM itself.
    Can anyone share some ideas here? Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Beiyang
    P.S. The FPM GAF works fine when I open the window in new browser (by calling if_wd_window_manager->create_external_window).

    Hi ,
    Currently I am facing same problem could you please let me know how you resolved your issue.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Is it possible to run two applications at the same time on ipad.

    Hi,
    I would like to know of it is possible to play media apps (movies or bbc iplayer programs) while surfing the Internet with safari on ipad2. Even if I can't actually see the video while I'm surfing the net but can still hear it and can jump between the Internet and the movie without the movie stopping.
    Somehow I think the answer to this is no but then I also thought it wasn't possible to do print screen images with ipad until someone showed me how.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks :)

    Prior to iOS 6, it was possible to "multitask" with some media like playing audio from YouTube video while playing a game or surfing the web, but it changed in iOS 6.
    There are always a few surprises in major iOS releases, so who knows, it might work again in iOS 7. I never set my expectations for anything other than what Apple talks about publicly, but like I said, you never know.

  • Is it possible to delay a download untill a specified time?

    I have very slow and limited bandwidth.  My isp provides free bandwidth from midnight to 6:00AM  Since I am trying to update my iphone software, and it will take 3 hours, I would like to do it overnight.  Is it possible to set it to do it at that time?

    There's no way I can think of besides beginning it, then pausing the download, then coming back right before you go to sleep and resuming it again.  The phone will only need to be connected when you first plug it in to begin the download.

  • Opening oracle applications in a browser

    I've got two questions:
    1.Is it possible to open oracle applications inside a browser itself instead of it opening a separate window? because if this is done than we can automate oracle applications using selenium. I'm using oracle applications 11.5 .
    2.I'm using firefox 3.6 and I'm not able to open oracle applications on it. I tried the methods given on the websites such as enabling the next generation java jre plugin but still firefox crashes when I try to open oracle applications. Is there some step that I'm missing or is there anything additional that has to be done? The oracle applications version I'm using is 11.5

  • CRVS2010 - open multiple rpts at the same time, like sheets in a xls file ?

    Hi all,
    is that possible to open multiple reports at the same time, like sheets in a excell file ?
    Is that possible create tabs beside the MainReport tab ? or include reports in the Group Tree ? how can I do it ?
    The application is in asp.net with VS2010 and CR2010.
    The reports used to be in excell with three sheets and now we are migrating them to crystal reports, how can I create the report with those three sheets ?
    thanks !

    I'll make the suggestion to the Program Management group.
    You may want to do a post to the [Crystal Reports Design|SAP Crystal Reports; forum and ask them how they's fake that sort of a requirement. E.g.; there may be some way to make this report look the way you want, but it will be best to ask the experts. Don't mention CRVS2010 as they don't support it and most likely you will not get an answer.

  • Open an app at a specific time...?

    Hi, I'm just curious if anyone might have any suggestions for me.
    I basically need a way to have an application to open at a certain time of the day, and then close at a certain time of the day, all automatically.
    Not sure if there's an app to do this, or a script, or whatnot, but any ideas would be great!
    Thanks
    Ziggy

    As they say in Perl programming "There's More Than One Way To Do It" (cron, launchd, etc.). One easy way is with iCal. Set an alarm to Open File (i.e., the application) at the specified time. Quit the same way using an AppleScript:
    tell application "My App" to quit

  • Is it possible to have an application open two or more times on a my Mac

    (ie MYOB)? My mac is Mac OS X ver 10.5.8. Its not possible to open more than one file at a time with MYOB unless you open the application again. This is possible with windows, but I am finding it a bit difficult with Mac. Any help with this matter would be deeply appreciated.
    Bec

    Perhaps,
    Install the application again, in a different location. This will give you two application icons to run. This used to work in older Mac OS's.

     Hi,
    One of my ex-colleagues has installed a NI-DAQ 6.5 in our system. [And I do not see any other naitional instruments card in the CPU of the computer, may be he removed it] I deleted the account and all his files in the system. When I am trying to install version8.0, its not getting installed and giving me a message that I should uninstall the previous version by going to Add/Remove programs in the control panel.
    I tried doing that, but the "Change/Remove" button does not seem to work...[There is no response and so unable to install the new version...]
    Any idea how can this problem be solved?
    It is a windowsXP operating system with SP2 installed on a machine with P4 processor.
    Thanks
