    Go to System Preferences>Accounts and then select your account, then startup items, remove Word from the list and reboot, you should be fine then.

  • Firefox opens automatically when I log in?

    We have an iMac with four different user accounts. Whenever I log in on my account, Firefox opens automatically, and it seems to take a long time. This suddenly started happening a few weeks ago, and I certainly never tried to make my computer do this. Firefox does not open automatically when any of the other users login. How do I make it stop happening, since I don't always want Firefox right away?

    Go to System Preferences>Accounts>the name of your account>Login items at the bottom of the list of accounts and look at your login items. Remove Firefox and it will stop opening when you log on.

  • Microsoft Word launches automatically when I log in to my iMac

    I have reviewed the previous discussions relating to the above issue, yet the solutions provided don't seem to help me out.
    Every time that I log on to my mac, Microsoft Word launches.  I have checked the options that permit program launches within the account preferences> login items> users.  Word isn't listed here and therefore there is no action that I can take to stop this from happening.
    Does anyone else have this problem and if so do they have a solution to stop Word from launching at startup?
    Many thanks

    Are you leaving Word open when you shut down? If so, Resume is starting it up.
    Other than that, right-click on the icon in the dock, go to Options, and make sure Open at Login is not checked.

  • How do i have adobe X pro encrypt word files automatically when created.

    how do i have adobe X pro encrypt word files automatically when created

    Hi sbuckton,
    Sure, you can encrypt your document while converting it. However you will have to use your Microsoft office for that.
    Please refer to the above screenshot & follow the steps :-
    1) Open Microsoft word with your word file.
    2) Click on the 'Acrobat' tab on the top.
    3) Then choose the Create PDF option form below.
    4) A pop up window will appear asking you to save the file as PDF, however before saving the file click on the 'Restrict Editing' option.
    5) Again a pop up window will come up on your screen, you can choose for the Encryption method & password protection option in order to secure the document.
    6) Once done, Save the file.
    In case if you still experience any issue please let us know.
    Regards,
    Aadesh

  • Iphoto open automatically when I turn computer on

    Iphoto open automatically when I put my computer on and I can't solve the problem. I have checked the login items on the system preferences and iphoto is not one of the checked items. I even played with it a few times to see wether it was simply stuck but the problem persisted. I checked previous solutions to that same question but they all say to uncheck the logged in items on the accounts. Thank you so much for your help.

    Do you have any external drives connected, that could be mistaken for a camera? Drives or thumbdrives with MS-DOS (FAT32) formatting? Then set the "General" preference in iPhoto "Connecting a camera" opens to "No Application".
    Do you quit iPhoto when you log off? If not, the log off option "Reopen windows when logging back in"  may be active and auto launching iPhoto.

    Hi r,
    It sounds like you're running Lion?
    Have you tried running Verify and/or Repair Disk?
    Have you tried running Repair Permissions?
    Do you have at least 15% free space available on your HD?

  • Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected?

    Why does iTunes no longer open automatically when iPad is connected? and iPhone as well?  Setting to "auto open" is selected, but iTunes will not open automatically. Problem seems to have begun with upgrade to Lion.

    Good luck getting an answer...I posted the same question a day ago.   I can only assume it's a glitch in iTunes 10.5.

  • HT1209 I've successfully imported the videos I've shot with my iphone5 into iphoto on my MacBookPro but they're only showing up as still shots, ie the imported videos don't play! Itunes no longer opens automatically when syncing!

    I've successfully imported the videos I've shot with my iphone5 into iphoto on my MacBookPro but they're only showing up as still shots, ie the imported videos don't play! Itunes no longer opens automatically when syncing, and when I open itunes it shows that there are zero "home movies" in there, meaning that it never grabbed the videos from my phone either. What to do? Thanks!

    tl:dr?
    Really?
    There was a short version expressly for people who weren't bothered to read a myriad of text.
    Meh, not that it matters anymore. I ended up redownloading 70-odd albums, so I have the bulk of my music back. And I still have no idea what iTunes did with my files, but I'll make sure it never does it again.
    I would thank you for the help but you were utterly useless. Oh well, carry on.
