Stopping the "Three Globes" Start-up Screen -- Part 2

Hi Experts,
As of BPC 7.0 SP3, it should be possible to stop the Three Globes startup workbook from being opened when launching BPC for Excel.
However, while the solution presented (using the COMPANY_LOGO AppSet parameter), will initially stop the Three Globes screen, it drops the user to the "Reporting" navigation.
The problem with that is that it's not the top level in the navigation tree, and consequently, the user has to click the HOME button to access the Custom Menu and BPF options... And of course, clicking the HOME button brings up our friends, the Three Globes.
Is there any way to disable the Globes but still have the user start at the right place?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Garrett

The capability to switch off the Three Globes logo page has been included with later versions with an AppSet parameter and I've used it successfully.

Cannot close the Office mac start up screen.

I'm trying to restart my computer for an update and the Office mac start up screen stops it from shutting down.I cannot get rid of that Welcome to Office mac 2011 screen. Could someone help me?
Thanks

Hello alpine67,
If you can't click through and quit Office 2011 for Mac normally, try force quitting it.
OS X: How to quit an unresponsive application using Force Quit
Using the Force Quit feature of OS X makes an application close, even when it is not responsive.
Important: Normally you should not need to force quit an app to close it. When an app is forced to quit, any unsaved changes to open documents are not saved, so try these methods to normally close the app first:
Choose Quit from the app menu. For example, in Safari, choose Safari > Quit Safari.
Choose Quit by right-clicking or control-clicking on an app's icon in the Dock.
If your app does not close using the steps above, use any of these steps to force the app to quit:
Switch to another app, such as the Finder, then choose Force Quit from the Apple menu. Select the unresponsive app in the Force Quit window, and click Force Quit.
Press Command-Option-Esc, then select the unresponsive app from the Force Quit window that appears, and click Force Quit.
Hold down the Control and Option keys on your keyboard, and click the icon of the unresponsive app in the Dock. Select Force Quit from the menu that appears.
Open Activity Monitor from the Utilities folder or the Spotlight menu. Select the unresponsive app in the Activity monitor window. Choose Quit Process from the View menu, or click the Force Quit button in the toolbar of the Activity Monitor window.
If you cannot switch from the unresponsive app, press Command-Option-Shift-Esc for three seconds to force it to quit. This key combination tells OS X to force quit the frontmost app.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

How do I stop the Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition ...

Every time I plug my N70 into my PC (Windows 2000), the Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition 3.0 starts, displays the images and clips on the phone and asks me to save them to my PC. I just want to sync my Contacts and Calendar on connection and sync my images only as and when I _want_ to. How can I stop the Adobe Photoshop Starter Edition from STARTING?

Hi GenKi,
Ogenki desuka?
First right click on the Adobe Photo Downloader, and then select disable. Think that should do the trick. Did that 2 months back, so I can't really recall well.
Hope this helps. Jya. ^_^
Hi,
I can't find the disable button. Can anybody help me?
Thx.

About two weeks ago, it would randomly shut off. It would restart fine, but shut off sooner. Sometimes, it wouldn't even restart. Now, it's at the point where when I power it on, it rarely restarts past the white apple start-up screen. mbp mid 2012 i7

Backup in case your disk is failing.
Start up in Safe Mode; http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14204?viewlocale=en_US
If it boots reliably in Safe Mode then it is probably a software issue.
Reset PRAM: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
Boot in Recovery Mode. (Hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys as your computer restarts.) Run Disk Utility. Click on the upper left system disk icon. Does S.M.A.R.T. report “Verified”? If not the disk is failing and will need to be replaced. Click on the icon underneath and indented to the right, usually called “Macintosh HD”. Repair Disk. It should finish normally with a green OK message. If it does not try to repair it again.
If it will not finish with the green OK message then use Disk Utility to erase the drive and then reinstall OS X. (Be sure you have a backup before erasing the disk. Post back if you need instructions on how to do that.)
If it repaired all errors and is still not booting normally, reinstall OS X.
If it is still sick after all these steps then the disk probably needs to be replaced. You can do that inexpensively and fairly easily yourself or take it to an Apple store for them to do it for you at a higher cost. If it is still under warranty or AppleCare have Apple do it for you for free. Post back if you need instructions on replacing the disk. You may want to have Apple check the health of the system and disk before replacing it yourself.

How to stop the executable from starting when opened

Hi Guys,
I am building an exe with the application builder. I am not able to find a way to stop the exe from running when opened. I dont need the exe to run. I know I m missing a very basic step here but I m not able to do that.
Could anyone explain me how to do this.
Regards,
Nitin

Hello,
This is Dominic L. from Applications Engineering at National Instruments. This was reported to R&D (CAR#41DAPUQU) and was fixed in LabVIEW 8.2.1. Here is a link to the current evaluation software download for LabVIEW:
http://digital.ni.com/demo.nsf/websearch/14f9ce475127ade786256ac60070926c?opendocument
This particular bug actually renders all the build options for source file settings unusable. While the other options can be set manually in the source VI properties, the start-up VI will always run when an executable is opened.
Here are three different workarounds to this:
Option 1 - Upgrade to 8.2.1.
Option 2 - Check "Enable debugging" and "Wait for debugger on launch" in the Advanced page of the build specification. One side effect is this will include the block diagrams of the VIs and extra code for debug tool support. Note that if you don't protect the source code (block diagram), it kind of defeats the purpose of creating an executable.
Option 3 - Use a dummy startup VI to launch the desired startup VI.
For the third workaround, the attached "Dummy Startup VI.vi" uses VI server to open the desired startup VI's front panel and then closes. To use the Dummy Startup VI follow these steps:
Add the Dummy Startup VI to the project.
Open the Dummy Startup VI and change "Main VI.vi" to the VI you would like to open but not run in the project and save.
In the source files page of the build, select the Dummy Startup VI as a startup VI and the VI you would like to open but not run as a support VI.
Build and run.
I hope this helps.
Have a great evening!
Best Regards,
Dominic L.

Can't stop the syncronizer from starting

I am runnning Elements 8 on an XP system. When the Photoshop.Com syncronizer runs, it sucks the life out of my CPU. That would be ok with me because it appears I should be able to tell PS8 to only sync when the system is idle, however I can't keep the syncronizer from starting up.
I stop the syncronizer and I also have turned off the flag to sync when new ablums are created. However if I try to rename an album, the syncronizer fires up no matter what I do. Until the syncronizer stops, I can't use my PC.
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks,
Joe

On the welcome screen there is an option to manage the account, Sign out from there and it shoould be the perfect. Or after launching the program (Organizer or the Editor) go to the menu bar and click on your name to sign out. Once you sign out it will not syncronize.
You can also try to Open the task manager and under processes end the one that says as backup.

How to stop the dispatcher from starting the server?

Hi all,
I am trying to disable the dispatcher from starting the server automatically, Both in the service or daemon, and in the go.bat files.
Thanks
Jeremy

Right now, I start the state from the go.bat script.
Then I start the dispatcher from the go.bat script
what happens next, (the default setting after intsallation) is that the dispatcher calls the server in cmdline mode.
I would like to be able to start the 3 independently for troubleshooting.
Even when I try to use windows services to start them, I can only start the "state" and "dispatcher" service. Some how the dispatcher is calling the server, regardless of how I start the dispatcher.
Thanks
Jeremy

My macbook pro frooze, "spinning wheel of death", I tried to force quit. When that failed I held down the power button. Now I can't get by the white apple start up screen, the wheel just keeps spinning and nothing will happen...HELP!

Again,
My macbook pro just frooze while on-line. I got the rainbow wheel spinnin and it wouldn't stop I tried to do a force quit and I was unable to do that. So I held down the power button. Now when I try to restart it I can't get by the while page with the apple symbol on it. All I have is the grey circle spinning continuosly like it is working. I tried a command S when I started it back up and checked the HD and rebooted, still can't get by the startup page. Any suggestions?

I'm having the same problem. I started an automatic upgrade that then got "stuck" for hours. I did a hard shut down and now all I get when I try to reboot is the spinning wheel. I haven't done a backup in 3 months and can't afford to lose everything in a reinstall. Any suggestions?

How do I stop the "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" from loading everytime I start Firefox? My home page is opening AND the (totally useless) 'start page'.

Just installed Firefox on my second Windows machine (running XP Home). Unlike my other installation, every time I start Firefox I get TWO tabs - my home page AND a "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" that contains only a Google search input. I don't need the useless start page, but haven't found anything that tells me how to stop it from loading.

Try This works good for those who aren't computer tech savvy like me
Type about:config in the address bar
Click I'll be careful, I promise if prompted
In the Filter input field type startup
Double click on startup.homepage_override_url
Delete the text string and click OK
Close Firefox and reopen the window to verify that it has worked.
Hopefully this helps!
I just tried this myself and it totally worked for me Good Luck

How can I stop the Mozilla Firefox Start Page from taking over my computer. I have reset the home page a half dozen times.

For the past month, every time I open Firefox, the Mozilla Start Page (with Google in the middle) takes over my home page setting (NY Times). How can I stop this from happening?

To the extent that I could, I tried the above, despite the lack of clarity at times. For example, how do the uninitiated find "sessionstore.js" and "sessionstore.bak" and the Firefox profile folder? Assuming that I eventually find them, what in the world does "check for problems" mean?
There are many of us out here with limited to moderate computer sophistication, and more detailed suggestions would be much appreciated. I am in the moderate to high category, but much of your response was marginally useful, to be kind. Not to say that I don't appreciate what you have written.

HT201263 My iPod touch 4th generation is stuck on the apple logo start up screen?

I took my Ipod of the charger in the morning and it's stuck on the start up logo (The Apple logo) how do I rest it, or get it past that screen?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Can not turn off, disable, mute, STOP the Apple boot start up chime on MacBook Pro using Yosemite 10.10.1

I understand why Apple forces the boot chime upon us for marketing and diagnostics, but I really want to disable the start up chime when booting my MacBook Pro laptop.
I have tried the sudo commands that worked in Mavericks.
nvram SystemAudioVolume=%80
and
nvram SystemAudioVolume=%00
They do not work with Yosemite.
I have also tried muting my laptop before shutting down and muting the sound entirely in System Preferences. This method does not work either.
Every time I boot the laptop I have to annoy every one in the library, or the cafe, or the airport, or the workplace.
Anyone have a solution for this?

I did that prior to posting, and the choices are very limited, or unreliable based on comments. There doesn't seem to be an app that can do this for 10.10.1 StartNinja was the only app that seems decent, but doesn't list Yosemite as a supported OSX version. I would like to avoid using an app to accomplish this anyway.
Then you are out of luck. Apple does not provide an on & off option or software regarding the start up chimes.

How do I stop the "Mozilla Firefox Start Page" tabs from opening whenever I select "Home"?

I get multiple instances of this annoying tab opening whenever I select Home, or open a new tab. I have found nothing in Options to turn this off.

You may have set multiple home pages.
