Please help me keep a program from booting on startup

Hello. When I restart my MacBook Pro, I get a message from PowerChute that I don't have a UPS hooked up (which is true). I want to prevent this message from appearing, and, in fact, remove the application entirely. But I can't seem to find it! I've searched using spotlight, to no avail. Any help you could give me would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
David

Please help, Macbook keeps disconnecting me from internet

Hello, i just bought my macbook pro. Its a Mac OS X ver. 10.5.7 with a 2.26GHz processor.
I have a Netgear 54mbps wireless router WGR614 v8 and a Motorola SB5100 SURFboard Cable modem.
Now the problem im having is with the internet connection with my mac. I live in Virginia and It was working before i went on vacation to tennessee which is an hour behind virginia. It was able to connect with no problems. It was also connecting fine in tennessee as well. But when i came back to Virginia, the mac would connect to my router or atleast say its connected but i can't use the internet at all. I would load either firefox, safari, or itunes store and the page would begin to load and then stop loading in the middle. As if it was freezing, dropping the connection or something. When i look through the airport connectivity, it would stay connected to my router with still no access to the internet. I also checked to make sure i was in the correct time zone with my mac and it was correct.I have a wii, xbox, original pc that are connected to router that operate perfectly. its just my macbook wont connect wirelessly when it used to before i went to tennesse and took it with me. Some of the error messages that i get when i try to use the internet via macbook now are "can't open page because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection" but then minutes later it would connect again, then internet would work. But shortly after it would stop working for a while. and the process continues like a cycle. PLEASE HELP BECAUSE IM CLUELESS. i've looked at many forums but no solution.

OK, I have been having the same problem. I have been renewing my dhcp every 5 min, so frustrating. I don't if this is the answer but this is the first time in a month I have been able to go for more than 3 hours without having to change anything, plus it seems faster. Instead of resetting your modem and router at the same time, unplug them both. 1st plug in your modem, allow it to fully reboot then plug in your router. Seems to have done the trick, good luck.
PS. I did clone my mac address in my router settings earlier this week.

There is no need to transfer anything.
Update the device via iTunes or Over the Air... no content on the device should be affected.
If the device is used as designed and regularly backed up to iCloud or iTunes on the computer, should anything go wrong it can be restored.

Sara,
Please see my answers in bold below.
What browser are you using? Try clearing the cache, or using a different browser. N/A
Are you converting from within Reader, or directly via the ExportPDF website. Within Reader.I disabled the OCR and this did not work either. Try converting from within Reader, and disable OCR as detailed in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel.
Are you on a networked computer? Make sure that there aren't any firewall/proxy settings that are preventing you from uploading files to the Internet. Not having problems uploading the file--that works fine.
Make sure the file is within the file-size limit of 100 MB. It is <40.
I get the error message, "File failed to be converted using Adobe ExportPDF online."
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi there. Can someone please help me with copying photos from my old iPad to my new one? Thanks.

Hi there. Can someone please help me with copying photos from my old iPad to my new ipad2? Thanks.

If you have a pc, when you plug your iPad in you should see the windows pop up window offering to backup the photos. Do that and it will save all your photos and videos to your computer where you can then sync them back to your new one.
If the pop up doesn't come up, double click on my computer and navigate your way to the iPad. Double cick on it an d navigate to the DCIM folder. Drag your photos and videos to your pc, then sync them back onto your iPad.

Hello gokulaan, '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Help. Installed the program from adobe in the trial under the same ID.

Help. Installed the program from adobe in the trial under the same ID. After the expiration of 30 days, our company has registered for acquisition programs. We have introduced a new ID for a trial test, and adobe programs from running. Test time is exhausted. How to run the program under the new ID in a trial.
Помогите. Установил пакет програм от адобе в триал под одним ID. После истечения 30 дней наша компания зарегистрировалась для приобретения программ. Мы ввели новый ИД для триал теста, а адоб программы не запускаются. Пробное время исчерпано. Как запустить программы под новым ИД в триале.

Возможно продлить триал продукта адобе если 30 дней исчерпано? Если я захожу под другим ИД то показывает 0 дней.

Welcome to the discussion area!
When the Time Capsule disk starts to become full, Time Machine will automatically delete the oldest backups first to make room for new backups.
For more details, I think you will get a faster and more informed response if you post in the TIme Machine forum for questions like this. We primarily handle configuration set up and networking questons about the Time Capsule as a hardware device on this forum, but it's possible that someone may see your post and respond from here as well.

PLEASE HELP MAIL KEEPS CRASHING!!!!

For some reason my mail keeps crashing. Whenever I try to do anything with my junk mail, the program crashes. If I mark an email as junk it crashes. If I try to move an email out of my junk mail it crashes. Can someone please please please help me out? I've tried to reset my junk mail settings and it still crashes....
Thanks
Joe

Are you really using Mac OS X 10.4.2, as your profile indicates?
There is probably some corruption in one or more of the files used by the junk filter. The following procedure thoroughly gets rid of all those files, so that Mail creates them anew:
1. Quit Mail if it's running.
2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/.
3. Locate LSMMap2 and move it to the Trash. This file stores information about what does and doesn't constitute junk, and is what allows the junk filter to learn. Clicking the Reset button in Preferences > Junk Mail also deletes LSMMap2. The file was called just LSMMap in early versions of Mail, delete that as well if you see it.
4. Locate DefaultCounts and move it to the Trash. This file keeps statistics about the number of messages that have been marked as junk, either automatically by the junk filter or manually by the user.
5. Locate MessageRules.plist and move it to the Desktop. This is where Mail 2.x stores all rules, including those used by the junk filter. If there is a file called MessageRules.plist.backup, move it to the Desktop too. You may also see MessageSorting.plist files there; this is where Mail 1.x stored the rules, and they are no longer used by Mail 2.x, so just move them to the Trash if you see them.
6. Look for the account folders. The name of each account folder starts with the account type (POP, IMAP, Mac), followed by the account username and the incoming mail server. Open each of the account folders, locate the Junk.mbox or Junk.imapmbox folder within it, and move it to the Trash if present.
7. Go to ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/. Locate any Junk.mbox folders there (their name may include the account name in parenthesis), and move them to the Trash.
Note: Messages in Junk folders with an .mbox suffix are stored locally, and will be lost forever as a result of doing steps 6 and 7. If there is a chance that you have legit messages there and you want to preserve them, move them to another mailbox in Mail first. If you cannot do that for some reason, move the folder to the Desktop (to be imported later), instead of to the Trash. Messages in Junk folders with an .imapmbox suffix are stored on the server and can be deleted blindly (Mail will rebuild those mailboxes automatically).
8. Open Mail. As a result of removing the rules file, the junk filter will be disabled now. You may want to either tell Mail to go offline immediately after opening it, or shut down the Internet connection before opening Mail, to prevent it from downloading anything until the junk mail filter has been enabled again.
9. Go to Mail > Preferences > Junk Mail, enable junk filtering, and configure it however you wish.
10. Go online again if you went offline in step 8.
If the above solves the problem and you don't have any rules you'd like to preserve or recreating them is not a daunting task, just delete the MessageRules.plist files that were moved to the Desktop and be done with it.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

Please help me with simple program

Can someone please write a simple program for me that opens up a webpage in the center of the screen , with a set size, and then asks the user where they would like to click on the screen. Then once the person clicks it asks how many times they would like to click there, and then once they enter the # the program opens up the webpage (in the center at the same spot as before, with the same set size) and automatically clicks on the predesignated spot , and then closes all open internet windows, and keeps doing it for however many times the person chose. PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS!!! If you could, please post the source code here. Thank you so much to whoever helps me!!!!!!!

If it's not to learn, then what is the purpose of
this project?well, if it's not HW and its not for learning java, then why the hell would anyone like to have a program that may open a webpage and then repeatedly click on predefined place...
let me see...
now if he had asked for program that fakes IP as well, then i would suggest that he tryes to generate unique clicks, but now... i'm not sure... maybe just voting in some polls or smthing... though, i would not create a program that clicks on the link or form element, but rather just reload url with given parameters for N times...

All that info and I still don't know where you are plugging them in. SATA or IDE(PATA)? Both?
Can you describe the not booting a little more? i.e. No video at all, you see POST but it doesn't complete, POST completes but you can't boot an OS.
