Mt Lion started running the last App that i quit at shut down.

Just these last couple of days osx 10.8.5 started running the last app that i quit and then shut dowm when i Start up and log in the next day. It has never done this before. I have Checked all the appropriate boxes in the system prefernces->General, I have unchecked the box that asks if you want to do this when you shut dowm. My only log in app is drop box. Anybody else have this "goast" start up happening. Again as i said it had just started these last couple of days.

Well it has been about 6 hours since the message stopped happening. I never tried disconnecting the keyboard, it just went away on its own. Mayble the shutdown messages were a fluke and the OS just fixed things on its own, I don't don't know. I am waiting to see if the message starts reoccuring. If it reoccurs I will try unplugging the keyboard, but I am curious how this could be causing the issue? I am using a wired apple keyboard, one of those chrome models. As far as I know there is no key on it that shuts down the computer and I didn't set one up either.
Perhaps the message is left over from my manually shutting down the computer yesterday. I had first tried to shut down the computer by the normal route of going to the Apple icon and choosing shut down, but finder had cancelled shutting down because of unsaved changes in time machine so I manually shut the computer down by pressing the power button.

IPhone 4 I can't use my Safari app. Every time I try to open it, the LAST app that I had used (and closed out of) opens instead of Safari. Any ideas? Thanks!

Sorry! I didn't realize that a message window opened up, so am not sure if my entire question showed up. I can't use my Safari app at all. Every time I try to open it, the app I used (and closed) previously opens instead. It doesn't matter what app it is, it is just the previous app used. Settings: 4.2.6 (8E200). Model MC676LL. Please help...Thanks!

Can I run the Netflix app on a 1st generation Ipod Touch running 3.1.3?

I have a 1st generation ipod touch running ios 3.1.3. I want to run netflix on it but when I try to install from itunes I get the message "The app "Netflix" was not installed on the IPOD because it requires a newer version of IPOD software." I have read from goggling this issue that netflix streaming on the 1st gen ipod is possible. What am I doing wrong? Or is this not possible at all?

"The "reason" that Netflix will not work with iOS 3.1.3 is because Netflix does so much that iOS 3.1.3 cannot handle it. SImple."
This is untrue, as was stated earlier:
I was running netflix on an itouch first generation ios 3.1.3 untill the glich with the app store. The newest update will not run on it now and I lost the original version when I reset the Itouch thinking the problem was on my end.
If you had said it's "incompatible" instead of "cannot handle it" or specified the version of the Netflix, perhaps the new Netflix app is so incredible, or rather it "does so much" MORE, you might be within the realm of having some useful input, but the following:
It would appear so!
leads me to understand you don't know what you're talking about or you're a wannabe company man and just lying.
If anyone else has useful information regarding running the Netflix app that certainly worked for us Netflix subscribers who are also 1g owners–and there are at least thousands, if not tens of thousands–and were using the app before we upgraded to 3.1.3 or restored and downloaded the latest Netflix app, it'd be great to hear from them. 1. 2. 3. SImple.

Since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

I've also had the same issues, after upgrading to IOS 6.0, the apps in my iPhone 4 were crashing and the battery life run out very fast.
The only solution worked for me was to remove all mail accounts (Exchange/Gmail) from my iPhone (in settings) and then add them back.
The crashing were stopped! also the battery was back to normal.
I found the solution by first looking at the crash logs (in IOS 6). you can find them at Settings -> General -> About (at the bottom of the About menu you will find the option that opens the logs).
There i saw many logs about Low Memory crash. 99% of the logs were pointed that the largest process (use the most memory) during the crashes is "dataaccessd".
I search in the web and found that this process is a deamon process that reponsible the Mail accounts (like Exchange/Gmail) and contancts list.
I've installed the app "System Status - activity monitor" which shows important system info like CPU usage, Memory usage and running processes.
Before apply my solution (deleting the mail accounts) i saw that the CPU usage was very high which consume the battery very fast. Also i saw that the memory (RAM) was run out.. which probably what cause the crashing..
After deleting the mail accounts (at Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars) i check again with the System Status app, and saw that the memory and CPU were back to normal.
Adding the mail accounts back, still everything work ok
Hope this solution will help you too,
Enjoy!

320PPI 5cm x 5cm , and the mobile app that this image appear runs on a mobile phone of 200ppi disp

IF I DO AN IMAGE in FW or PS of 320PPI 5cm x 5cm , and the mobile app that this image appear runs on a mobile phone of 200ppi display resolution, then resolution seem of image should be 200ppi ... in other words should adapt automatically????

Only if you were to measure the physical dimentions. (Using physical dimentions and changing the ppi would add or remove pixels)
inches X ppi = pixels
A 1200 x 1600 pixel image will be the same on all devices that share that ratio, the ppi difference comes into play when the phyical size of the screen is changed.
Technically the quality never changed only the zoom changed.
When designing a screen at 1200x1600 (example) That image will fit on any screen that has that spec.
The ratio plays a role when only 1 of the 2 pixel dimentions changes (width or the height).
On larger screens, the ppi is lower to equal the same number of pixels. So when a device can support a higher resolution, the ppi is increased on the same size screen.
Knowing that, having the specs of the device will tell you the maximum number of pixels that screen can display.
Therefore, when designing a screen, always start with the largest resolution (pixel dimmentions) first, then downsample to the next size screen and so on.
The reason is simple, it is easier to remove pixels, then it is to add them later, as photoshop or any other software does not know what should be there.
BTW, this is also the reason why you can change the pixel dimentions in the save for web dialog box and not the physical size or ppi. To make it easy to reduce the pixel dimentions.

How do i delete or remove the Tips app and the health app that apple added to my phone on the last update 8.0.2?

How do i remove the Tips app and the Health app that apple added to my iphone on the last update? Update 8.0.2? I didn't want these added to my phone. I have to remove apps every time there is an update. After the phone is updated I reinstall the apps I removed. After 8.0,2 there was not enough room for me to reinstall my apps because they added the Tips app and the health app. How do I remove them? When you hold your figure on the apps they added, X's pop up on all of the apps i've installed, but not on the ones that come on the iPhone and the ones that they added on this last update. Please help.

They force you to buy health insurance these days and now apple forces you to keep spyware apps on your phone.
Oh, knock off the fearmongering. None of those apps are spyware. Health stores all of its data on the phone. It will only back it up to your computer if you do an encrypted back up. The only data it collects on its own are steps, stairs and distance traveled. Anything else in it is information you've explicity authorized it to collect from anothr app you've installed. You're not required to put anything in Passbook, Podcasts, iBooks or Newstand.

- Go to Settings>Store and sign out and sign into your account.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post. (If you've got XP, although the procedure is for Vista and 7, just read "Computer" as "My Computer", read "Uninstall a program control panel" as "Add or Remove programs control panel" and assume the system is 32-bit, and you'll be doing the right things.)

I just downloaded Lion. I noticed on the mail app that there is no down arrow on the righthand slider? The slider bar is way too sensitive.

Hi Anne,
Sad but true, no more scroll arrows anywhere... why? Because if you can't use something easily on an iPhone it's gone from iOS7

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click the following line to select it. Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -Rh $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
The first step should give you usable permissions in your home folder. This step will restore special attributes set by OS X on some user folders to protect them from unintended deletion or renaming. You can skip this step if you don't consider that protection to be necessary.
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word, all lower case, with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

DVD always starts from the last point

No matter what change I make in the project, the DVD always starts at the last point I stoped! And I need it to start at the main Menu every time.
I've already read many of the topics with similar problem, and tried so many suggestions... none worked for me! Maybe I'm doing something wrong!
I'm using iDVD 7.0.4, Revolution theme.
The first top left auto-start box is empty. Then comes the Main Menu. From it comes 3 other boxes with chapters, all of them with Slide shows (built directly on iDVD) and a few 90 seconds movies (on iMovie, then Exported - not shared with iDVD)
I already tried to delete: com.apple.iDVD.plist and burn the DVD again. I've burned almost 10 already, with different settings!
Please, if anyone can help me, I would appreciate!

All you need do within apple's dvd player app is to select menu and it will remember that spot next time the dvd is inserted into your mac. Or at least it should. If not, then there's something else going on.
A third party set top dvd player (in most cases) will also take you directly to the first menu of the dvd. Unless you simply hit "stop" in which case you should be prompted to resume playback at the last point played. Or again, you can select Menu from the remote to bring the dvd to the root menu page. Your choice.

New measurement starts with the last measurement value before program stop

New measurement starts with the last measurement value before program stop. This is very embarrassing because we finish at a high measured value and start with small value, which can not be seen on the autoscale screen due to the memorized high first value. We use NI PCI-6220 DAQ board and software written in LabView 7.1 using Express VIs and running in the LabView environment. The program (attached) every half second measures 3 AI channels, filters and scales the data, visualizes, averages and saves it in a file. Please advise me how can I avoid this problem. Please note that I am not very experienced in LabView.
