Skype loads after every restart

Hi,
Every time my macbook restarts, Skype tries to load. Why is that? I do not want that to happen. I have also gone to "System Preference" > "Users and Groups" > "Login Items" and have made "Skype" hidden by checking in the right box. Still Skype tries to load after restart.
Cheers,

If you do not want it to automatically load at startup, then select it on the Login Items screen, then click on the "-" sign at the bottom to remove it from your startup apps group.

  • Creative Cloud desktop app stops loading after every restart (pc)

    This has been happening since the last update. Every time I restart my PC, the Creative Cloud app not only doesn't launch automatically, but stops launching and working altogether. It is on the Task Manager as something that is opened, but it isn't. I have to uninstall and install to be able to launch again, until I go to sleep and have to do the same thing the next day.
    I thought I'd find a lot of other people with the same issues but seems like I'm the only one asking about this. The apps (photoshop, etc) works fine, but I need CC app working properly to sync my files.
    Is this a known issue?

    Unfortunately, that did not solve the issue. Renamed the file and was able to download new programs. I was even able to use them (after effects and photoshop), but when I restarted, they were lost again. Now Audition doesn't even work. I get this message: "Adobe Application Manager, required to start your trial, is missing or damaged. Please download a new copy of adobe application manager from http://www.adobe.com/go/applicationmanager.
    So basically, everytime I restart my computer, I have to download the cloud desktop app, install it, then install whatever programs I want to use. Then I can't restart or else I risk losing them and have to do the process all over again. Desperate for a solution on this one.

  • Same bugs occuring after every restart

    I'm using webOS 2.1.2 on an HP Veer 4G.  Every time I restart the phone, the following bugs happen:
    1) The Voice Dial shortcut that I put on the taskbar (wave) has been removed; also, the Voice Dial shortcut that I had moved to a custom location in the Applications panel is lost and the icon is moved to the last spot.  Every time, I have to move it back to where I want it in the Applications panel and then re-add it to the taskbar (wave) area.
    2) Even though I've already gone through the entire tutorial in hopes that it would never bother me again, a Gestures Tutorial notification comes up every single time the phone starts up.  I would just like to delete this application, if possible, but I don't see a way to do it like I can with custom apps.
    Has anyone else experienced these or similar issues after a restart and know of any solutions or work-arounds?  Also, is there an official place that I can report bugs to Palm/HP?  Thanks!
    Post relates to: HP Veer p160una (AT&T)

    Thetreoguy:
    Thanks for the reply!  I'll look forward to an update for the Voice Dial app soon.
    Regarding the Gesture Tutorial, you are correct that it did not finish the first time I used it.  The tutorial actually locked up on me and I had to shut it down.  I've followed it through to completion a couple of times since then, but it still pops up after every restart.
    What exactly will happen if I go to Reset Options and Erase apps and data?  Will it erase my personal data that I've spent a long time adding, or just the default apps?  Once it erases the apps, how do I get them back (with the exception of the Gesture Tutorial, of course)?  If it erases all my personal data too, is there a way to back them up and copy them back to the phone and still preserve all contact information and the link to the contact photos I've added?
    Thanks again for your help.

  • 8 fonts in the trash after every restart!

    Hi.
    Snow Leopard 10.6.1 is working great but I am finding 8 fonts in the trash after every restart!
    ArialHB, Corsiva, Nadeem, NewPeninimMTBoldInclined, Baghdad, MshtakanRegular, NewPeninimMT, NewPeninimMTInclined.
    This can't be good. Does anybody know what that means and what to do?
    I see a lot of people have font-problems.
    W.W.

    Your choice - Back them up to CD-R if you've a mind, but I'd pull the trigger, finish them off and get rid of them. They've ended up there for a reason.
    Also, don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come in from MS Office 2008, including fonts related to an Equation Editor installation.
    Good luck going forward.

  • Sticky Keys keeps turning off after every restart

    the Sticky Keys option in the universal access prefs pane keeps turning off after every restart. how can i fix this?

    It seems to be a common problem in the OS that when you restarts some of the settings get reset. For me it happens with the screeen dimming before sleep and the double click using 2 fingers and maybe others that I don't know about. I am hoping that its fixed in 10.4.7 which should be out within a week or so.

  • 2 fonts in my trash after every restart

    Hello forum,
    I've been pestered by a strange buggy sitch for weeks now, and I cannot find a solution. I looked 50 pages deep into the threads regarding the FINDER, no answers. There were a few threads on Trash issues, none close to what I'm experiencing. Although not a "mission critical" problem, it's mostly an annoyance which, to me, hints of something more serious or potentially bad.
    Every time I restart - either when restarting after a BootCamp session BACK to Leopard - or when simply restarting Leopard for what ever reason - I always have two fonts in my trash can, in a "Recovered Files" folder. They delete without trouble or fuss...
    One of the two fonts is always " ヒラギノ角ゴ ProN W3.otf " and the other is "AppleGothic.ttf " .
    Once or twice the second font was Waldorf, Adobe Garamond, Apple Garammond, whatever... This suggests to me it has little to do with the font(s) itself.
    Of note; none of these fonts were being actively used by an application I was working in (i.e. Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Mail, Safari, etc.) Of course, they are in use by the system - due to the nature that they are indeed "loaded" into the OS.
    In terms of what I've done to try and fix this myself, I've done the following:
    • I occasionally run AppleJack
    • I've used Apple's *Font Book* to verify all fonts and check for duplicate fonts - all dupes are turned-off.
    • I've deleted most every non-US English font typeface the system had, especially any/all of the Asian dialect fonts
    Can anyone suggest a solution? Thank you in advance - I love these forums, they are always most helpful!

    Latest developments:
    The problem seems to have been corrected - that's the good news. The bad? I'm not sure what exactly fixed it; this is what I did:
    I ran CHKDSK from within BootCamp. Everything checked-out just fine. Of note, XP crashed from a "stable" desktop after I changed the security settings on a JPG file. I know there isn't a correlation at all here - that JPG file didn't exist when this problem began occurring weeks ago.
    I think the fix was deleting some font files - not from within Font Book - but directly from the user font directory; path and fonts as follows:
    Mac HD > Users > UserName > Library > Fonts >
    the following four fonts were deleted:
    MS Gothic.ttf
    MS Mincho.ttf
    MS PGothic.ttf
    MS PMincho.ttf
    After several restarts - from into and out BootCamp AND into and out of a few other user accounts, returning to my main login account (running as Admin) the "Recovered Files" folder did NOT appear in the trash, of course, neither did any fonts.
    Lastly, I ran OnyX and deleted (fully) the trash - it found a few items from other user accounts, deleted all of that garbage (what ever it was) before deleting the aforementioned fonts.
    In retrospect, I suspect the origin my have been simply a corrupted font such that FontBook didn't catch the problematic font. It subsequently corrupted one or more of my custom font lists from within FontBook. I trashed those custom lists the other night, but the problem persisted...
    So - cumulatively, something did the trick.
    Case closed for now.

  • Can't login to Mac Pro after every restart

    Hi all,
    For 5 days I've not been able to log into my computer at work after its been restarted/gone to sleep. The IT guys have had to do all kinds of stuff to get it working again. And every time we think it's fixed, I've come in the next morning and have the same problem, can't login.
    I've eliminated that its my login details as I was able to login on another machine just fine. And others can't login  to my computer, so it's obviously an issue with my machine/OS.
    Does anyone have any ideas of why this would keep happening? It's as if something keeps resetting after each restart that then won't allow anyone else to login. This is all I can think of, but honestly have no idea. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated as its really frustrating and putting me very behind on my work. Thank you!
    Btw, it's a Mac Pro duel quad core, 16GB ram, OS 10.6.7 I believe.
    Also, the admin and root can login, just not any other accounts. So the computer can be accessed, but not thru my or any other accounts on the network.

    Hey there.
    Well, I figured out what is causing my problem. It's Mobile accounts. I started fresh with a new install and a standard Active Directory account (not Mobile). I authenticated 20+ times. Rebooted at least 10 times. Everything worked great. Then I decided to create the Mobile account. That's when everything broke again. My Active Directory account was getting locked after one accurate attempt to authenticate. When IT unlocked it I could go one step further but then would lock me out the next time I tried to authenticate. I've replicated this twice.
    So for me, it's clearly a Mobile account problem. Which is bad because half of the Macs under my care are notebooks.
    Please let me know what you find out on your end.
    Thanks,
    Adam

  • README file opens after every restart??

    The hard drive in my iMac died and Apple replaced it under warranty. The new drive was loaded with OS X 10.6. I decided to migrate my user files, applications, settings from my cloned backup (SuperDuper) on my external drive rather than simply copying the backup using SD. I thought this might maintain a more pristine newly installed system. Everything seems to work well except for one aggravating phenomenon. After each restart I get an opened TextEdit "README" document that reads in part: "This README file is copied into the direcgory for GCC-only header files when fixincludes is run by the makefile for GCC.
    Many of the files in this directory were automatically edited from the standard system header files by the fixincludes process............"
    Why am I getting this message with startups and more importantly how do I fix this so the message does not appear?
    Thanks.
    John

    Neil,
    Thanks for the help. I did find an entry for TextEdit in the User Login Items section. I don't know why or how it got there. I suppose it had something to do with using Migration Assistant to move files.

  • Server file system is growing after every restart of weblogic - OBIEE 11g

    Hi,
    We do a backup of the our BI production server every night (OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BI1)
    The process we follow is:
    1. Stop BI Services
    2. Weblogic (incluedes Node Manager, Weblogic and others)
    After every stop of weblogic, there is a file get created under WLS_Home/instances/instance1 and the file is like core.xxxxx ( e.g. core_31176, core_19440).
    My questions regarding these files are:
    1. What is the use of these files?
    2. Can I delete them (Depends on the answer of the above question)?
    3. Is it possible to control not to create these files (if they are not useful)?
    Thanks in advance.

    It sounds like it is safe to remove those file's unless you need to debug any weblogic issues.
    Please mark correct or helpful if answered.

  • Spotlight starts indexing after every restart and there is a scrolling delay with both mouse and track pad.

    I had to restart my MBP three time, two after it crashed. Every time Spotlight starts to index the content on my Mac
    which takes two hour. Then there is a delay when I start scrolling, both with the mouse and with the track pad.
    I also notised that after changing the icons with Candybar they still appear unchanged in Launchpad, which makes
    it confusing. Launchpad isn't consitent when putting the apps in aphabetic order, but jumble up some of the apps.
    i don't get back the wab sites after restart as i was to believe I would.
    As Jobs sez; And more thing.
    Well one more might OK, there are more bugs then that, but I to tired to tell them all.
    I have never found so many bug in such a short time (only in two hours with Lion now) with any other OS and I have worked with Macs since -91.
    God help us.

    Hi, me again, more data.
    I have found that some plugins are accessing the internet without my permission.
    And when I went into the plug in menu via the addons options through the Tool Menu option, I found the plug ins there.
    BUT I never installed those plugins, and now they are there and they are accessing the Internet. Here are two images to show the plug ins disabled and yet another image showing them still accessing the Internet even when disabled.
    I then removed them from the system (I did back them up first, just in case).

  • Yosemite keeps installing (progress bar) after every restart

    I've recently installed Yosemite and there are currently no more updates available. However every time I restart or reboot my computer I continue to see an install progress bar as if the OS is finishing up an install. Since this is happening every time I reboot or restart my computer I'm thinking something might have gone wrong with the install.
    Any suggestions as to what this anomaly might be? t

    Per PeterVL57 the progress bar is underneath the apple-logo and this process is identical on my two iMacs and MacBooks. Thanks everyone for the quick replies. I guess I was so accustomed to identifying the progress bar with software installs, it hadn't occurred to me that they'd use the same approach to the initial loading of the OS X.
    Thanks again everyone:-)
    All the best.

  • Oracle 10g Listener Port Changes after every Restart

    Hi All,
    I have installed Oracle10g in my Laptop and was working fine till last week, but now when I start the Listener, it is starting with different port number other than the default port 1521. ( For example first time Listener started with port number 3110, then after restarting the Listener it becomes 3313, and so on) That means server is assigning different port numbers on every time when the listener starts.
    Because of this I am not able to connect to the database.
    How to make the Listener port as default 1521 permenantly.
    Please help.
    Regards

    Hi,
    Can you please check the listener.ora file? Do you have the port number
    mentioned as 1521 as below:
    LISTENER =
    (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = my_server_name_fully_qualified)(PORT = 1521))
    Regards,

  • Mouse profile doesnt load after computer restart

    Every time I restart my laptop, I have to re-load the mouse settings to enable the ClickPad. Otherwise, I loose the option to scroll using the ClickPad and it's driving me crazy. It only happens when the computer is shut down or restarted. I did recently install windows 10 but I don't know if this was the cause or not. Please help!

    I don't have a fix for your problem directly but an alternative to suggest: try the SteerMouse driver. When I tried a Mighty Mouse the Apple driver literally drove me (pun intended) away - flaky and feature poor are the nicest things I can say about it. The SteerMouse driver on the other hand is feature rich and rock solid; it will cost you a few bucks but is well worth it. Download via MacUpdate, VersionTracker, et al.; last I looked there was a free trial period.
    Full disclosure: I have nothing whatever to do with the authors or publishers of SteerMouse.
