Subvi opens at startup

How do I keep a subvi from opening when I start my main (top level) vi ?

Hello,
The subVI node setup could be the issue, or the VI's properties. It sounds as though you may have the "Show front panel when loaded" property set (which would cause the front panel to open when the subVI is loaded into memory, which is when the top level VI is loaded into memory - you can programmatically load VIs into memory by calling them by reference using VI Server, but that's a different issue altogether), but you can change that and many other properties for the VI as follows:
1. open the subVI
2. click File -> VI Properties (or type CTRL+I) to launch the properties dialog box
3. choose the Window Appearance category in the drop down menu
4. click the Customize... button
5. See the attached screenshot for the relevant properties (I think you want these to be unchecked)
I hope this helps!
Best Regards,
JLS

Subvi opens when opening the main vi

A subvi opens when I open up my main vi. The main vi is not running at startup, but the subvi opens anyway.

Open firmware startup disk by default

I have an iMac which by default always goes to the open firmware startup disk screen. How do I get rid of this? I have tried zapping the PRAM, reinstalling the OS and a different hard drive. There are no problems w/ the functionality of the computer or the software and there are no symptoms to say that there is anything wrong w/ the computer. Just want to get rid of having to hit enter at the firmware startup disk screen every time I turn it on. Any suggestions please.

Mark, it appears that the defauly startup mode has been changed on your Mac.
Probably the easiest way to get back to normal is using a utility. I use the free utility OnyX. In OnyX go to Parameters>Login and at the bottom of the pane you can change your Mac's default startup mode.

Photoshop Elements opening on startup, despite having shut it down prior to closure.

I am running Elements 13 on a MacBook Air O SX Yosemite version 10.10.
After installation I encountered the following issues.
1)       Elements 13 Organiser application opened ok and transferred my photos from iPhoto.
2)       Elements 13 Application opened o.k
3)       Elements 13 Editor opened o.k
But latterly, when opening Elements 13 application after 1 second, the screen reverts to another copy of Elements 13 Organiser.
I have attempted to check the Installed files, to check if they are in the right location, cannot see any apparent issues.
Additionally on Start-UP Elements 13 starts automatically despite having quit the programme prior to closure.
Maybe if I completely re-installed Elements 13 the problems might go away.
Your earliest response would be much appreciated.
Kind Regards     David A Hullin

Barbara Hi!
Thanks for your quick response.
Sorry for the confusion regarding 2 Copies of Elements 13 Organiser.
What I intended to say is as follows:
On my Dock, after installing Elements 13, there are three adjacent Buttons for the Elements 13 Application from left to right:-
1 Elements 13 Organiser
2 Elements 13
3 Elements 13 Editor
MY ISSUES ARE:
1 Elements Organiser opens o.k.
HOWEVER:
2 Elements 13      (To import work from the Elements Organiser), the following happens:
This section of the application opens only briefly, (1.5 seconds, headed appropriately Elements 1 (But immediately reverts to a repeat copy of the Elements Organiser screen) which is activated by Button 1
Button 3 Elements 13 Editor (opens) O.K.
P.S   Initially the application was working O.K
Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
David A Hullin

the screen reverts to another copy of Elements 13 Organiser.
What do you mean by this? There is only one copy of Elements 13 organizer installed on any mac.
I would start by deleting the preferences and the saved application states for PSE:

How to keep finder in mountain lion from opening at startup

How to keep finder in mountain lion from opening at startup.?

Now you got me thinking....
One can set things up so Finder can be quit like any other application. In Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder QuitMenuItem 1
Then relaunch the Finder.
I guess it might be possible to make a an Applescript or Automator application which runs at start up and quits the Finder.

Looking for a way to programmatically set the visible portion of the front panel when a subVI opens

I am looking for a way to programmatically set the visible portion of the front panel when a subVI opens. Haven't found any posts that relate, but I'm not sure how to ask the right question. To be clear, I want to write a helper VI to go through a list of subVIs to make sure the background images are all in the same place when their respective subVIs open. I hate manually playing with scroll bars before I save each of the VIs... I'm figuring I need to find the top/left location of the background image (know how to do this already) and then set a VI FP property to these values or some offset, but I can't find the relevant property. FP:run-timeposition:custom looked promissing, but only affects the location of the window, not the area of the front panel the window is displaying.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Cool. Getting closer. The way I implemented your suggestion affects the subVI only if it is open. I can use this to do what I'm after, perhaps putting the code into each subVI. Maybe open all subs, run the helper, and save. Seems like I'm missing the elegant version...

Why do some applications automatically open at startup

I just installed mountain lion. I noticed that when the computer starts up microsoft windows and excel open automatically. I have another application that does it sometimes as well. why do some applications automatically open at startup? How can I change this?

Quit them before shutting down the computer, and check the list of login items in the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences.

Why does subVI open when a VI is run without highlighting execution

When running the VI Proc Recipe Array without highlighting execution the subVI VPTS Proc Cmnd gets a green arrow over its icon and opens. I want to run the main VI without opening any of the subs. Why does that subVI open? All sub are in the attached LIB file and the test file needed is also attached. You should place the input file in the C:\VPTS\Recipe folder.

This is because the SubVI VPTS Proc Cmnd has an option "Suspend when called".
To cancel this
1.open the subVI,
2.click with the right mouse button on the subVI icon in the up-right corner of the window,
3.select "VI properties...",
4.choose category - Execution
5.and uncheck the option "Suspend when called".
Good luck.

Why do my CD drives open at startup?

Lately my CD/DVD drives open at startup and close about a minute later. I have no idea why this started. How can I disable this?
Thanks,
Jim

Right about the time the Apple logo shows up, both trays open. Maybe 5 minutes later they close.
I have zapped PRAM but that did not fix it.

Finder window opens on startup - alternate cause

I just had this problem come up, and it took quite a lot of digging to find out why. I thought I would post the cause of my particular problem and it's solution as a reference for others who have been unsuccessful at stopping a finder window from loading at startup.
For reference, here's what I tried that didn't work:
- Looked for the Finder listed in Preferences>Accounts>Login Items (wasn't there)
- Deleted User>Library>Preferences>com.apple.Finder.plist, restarted the dock, restarted computer.
- Changed background wallpaper (some said this worked for them)
I noticed in the Login Items something called "gstlauncherdaemon". As it turns out, this is part of the GimmeSomeTunes app. It causes the app to start when iTunes is launched. Well, apparently, it's also causing a Finder window to open on startup. You can disable this feature in the GimmeSomeTunes preferences. Personally I wanted to keep this feature, but couldn't stand the window. So I deleted the app and it's associated .plist file with AppZapper. The "gstlauncherdaemon" is no longer listed under Login Items and no window showed up on restart.
Hope this helps some who have been going mad over this like me. So if you've recently installed this app and are having a similar problem, it may very well be the culprit.

thanks for sharing this. I've seen a number of posts by people struggling (unsuccessfully) with a finder window opening at login. I don't know if any of them use GimmeSomeTunes but this is certainly something to consider.

Ical not in login items but opening at startup

is anyone else experiencing this issue? i got an error message for my sync services and once that was fixed my ical is opening at startup but it's not in my login items. i went into my login items and added it and then removed it trying to trick my machine but it didn't work.
on a side note, all of a sudden a copy of my idisk is showing up on my desktop and it hasn't been there for quite some time.
i wonder if there's an issue with one of my volumes or a database/preference issue?

That is normal in Lion and Mountain Lion. Those systems try to reopen any apps that were open when you shut down. To stop that from happening, simply uncheck the box in the shut down dialog:

This is probabaly caused by the resume feature. When you log out, uncheck the box that appears.
