Stop Auto Open of LIghtroom

How do I stop Lightroom from opening every time I start my PC?

You can try disabling all auto-starting in your OS (that's what I do, in Windows).
Another possibility is to disable Lr preference to auto-start for import when removable disk attached.. - sorry I don't know where that option is off-hand..

  • How Do You stop Auto opening apps?

    How do you stop the previous apps from auto starting  when you start your machine? I have already turned off the retsore windows in system prefes and I dont have any auto startup items... so what gives, can someone tell me how to stop them from opening up? I suppose I could go and close every app before I take my laptop off its power plug (battery is dead now days)... but I was just hoping there was some otehr way rather than going into each app before I pick up and run.

    Kind of...but not exactly. This has been discussed at length over the last few months.
    I put together a summary of the various solutions into a single procedure for disabling the whole Resume feature here:

  • When iPad connected to Mac Pro, images from iPad camera auto open Aperture

    Hi, When open Mac Pro with i Pad connected, Aperture opens atomatically with images from i Pad camera. Checked systen prefs for Mac & Aperture + U tunes for iPad prefs, but cannot find way to stop auto open of Aperture. Help!!!

    Look in the application Image Capture on your Mac. In the preferences for Image Capture there will be a setting to choose which, if any, application to open when connecting a camera to your Mac. Change that setting to open nothing.
    If you want Aperture to open when you connect your camera to the Mac and it continues to open when you connect your image then just quit Aperture after it opens and then start iTunes.
    Any time there are photos in your iPad's Camera Roll. Your Mac will assume you'll want to upload those photos to your Mac.

  • Any way to stop auto shared volumes from opening in finder when booting?

    Leopard 10.5.8, but has been happening since at least 10.4.x...I have auto mounts setup in my user preferences, the auto mount fine, but the automatically open up too...makes it very annoying having to close all windows every time I boot the system...we have multiple Mac Pros running both Leopard and Snow Leopard...is there any way to stop the opening of the shares when I boot? maybe an applescript or something? thanks.

    there are some fancy solutions to this using autofs or /etc/fstab but a less involved method might be by using applescript. open Applescript editor (it's in /Applications/Utilities) and paste the following in it
    mount volume "afp://nas.ip.address/path-to-share"
    add a line like that for each share you are mounting.
    save the script as an application and add it to your login items. on the first try it will ask you to enter user name and password if your shares have any. enter those and check the box to save it in the keychain. it won't ask again. this will mount those shares without opening separate finder windows.

  • Can I stop the email client from auto opening messages?

    I'd like to get the iPad e-mail working like the iPhone where messages are not "auto opened". Some messages I want to delete without ever opening them, but the mail client always keeps one open all the time. Is there a way to stop this from happening?
    Thanks

    did the restore through itunes but to no avail.
    Then you must have restored and installed your backup when requested.  To remove those emails, you have to restore as new, i.e. without your backup, as roaminggnome suggested.

    How can I stop auto download of attachments without tapping on them? Once I open a mail, the attachment automatically starts downloading, though it is written as "tap to download". Please help..

    To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to prevent the automatic downloading of the SD version when you buy an HD show.
    You can, if you wish, suggest that the ability to prevent the SD version from downloading through the iTunes feedback page. But since the SD version is needed for use on iPods and there at least at present is no mechanism for someone to download the SD version at a later time should they decide they need it, Apple may just continue to force the downloading of both versions. If they get enough feedback on the issue, though, they may figure something out.

  • Import Dialog will not auto open - Lightroom 4.1

    Since I upgraded to Lightroom 4.1 from 3 the Import Dialog screen will not auto open when I insert a memory Cart to my Imac. 
    I have the correct box ticked in the preferences.

    I have performed all of the above and I still can't get Lightroom 4.2 to open to the Import screen when inserting a memory card. If LR is already open and then a card is inserted...yes the Import screen opens. If LR is 'Quit' (closed) and a card is then connected Lightroom opens to the Library, but not the Import screen. I have also tried to delete the preferences files and restart, but I'm unsuccessful with multiple tries there too.Running a Macbook Pro 10.6.8. Lightroom 4 opens as desired—connect card via card reader, LR launches and opens to the Import screen—on my iMac 10.7.4.
    LR 4.2 Build 850741

  • How do stop PREVIEW from auto-opening images?

    I'm scanning all my old slides. And every time I finish a scan, Preview automatically opens the pic.
    I have Preview as my jpg default, which I would like to keep (not Photoshop, etc).
    But I'd like Preview to NOT auto-open these files once they're created.
    Any ideas?
    tia

    Not sure what printer or scanning software you are using, but if you open and use Image Capture in your App Folder you can direct the Scan To: any number of Folders, Apps or Desktop.

  • Stop auto launching at startup??

    How do I get Spotify to stop auto launching at startup of my desktop?  I have looked all over and cannot find the option.
    Thanks.

    Here's another "me too" followed by what I've done so far. In Windows 7, about three weeks ago my Spotify started loading at startup.I checked preferences, for some reason the option had changed on its own to load at startup. I reset to "do NOT load" at startupThe next time I rebooted, it started up on its own again. I checked settings, they had changed back again. Again I fixed my preferencesThe NEXT time I rebooted, it happened again! This time I not only changed the setting back to NOT load at startup, I also opened MSCONFIG and checked the TWO, count-em, TWO entries of Spotify to prevent loading at startup. Pop up box suggested restartiing the computer. I did, no Spotify loaded. Yay...for now...however,Two hours later I took my laptop with me on a business visit. When I turned on the computer, Spotify loaded AGAIN.I again opened MSCONFIG and found FOUR, count-em, FOUR entries of Spotify I had to check to prevent loading at startup.This is getting very frustrating. It's my belief that some recent upgrade to Spotify is causing this, as it only started a few weeks ago. Someone with Spotify needs to check into this! Help me Obi Wan!!

  • How do i prevent Photos from auto opening?

    I use lightroom,  I want this app to stop automatically opening when I connect a card to my computer

    You have to do this for every device--every memory card, every camera, every phone. Really lame UX. The Apple Overlord has decreed that you shall use Photos for importing. I guess this is Apple's strategy since it would have been illegal to just release code that broke Picasa.
