Too any programs are trying to open..........

Hi,
When I turn on my Mac Book Pro 10.4.9, there are several programs that open up including IDVD and word which really slows it down. It just started doing this about two months ago. I went in System Preferences to see if I could shut this off but was unable to see where I could do this. Could someone please let me know where I can change it back to not opening all these programs upon start up.
Thanks

The page that you are trying to open contains a movie that is referenced to an incorrect version of

I programmed a set of quizzes in Director 8.0 for one of my courses about ten years ago and have been updating them since. And, yes, I did purchased 11.5, but can't use it because I can't use printing w POM or a number of other extras anymore. My semester is about to start and Adobe has updated the Shockwave player in Windows over the summer (I think?) causing my quizzes to not work in a web browser. I am getting this message and can't figure out what is causing it:
The page that you are trying to open contains a movie that is referenced to an incorrect version of the Shockwave player.
I have been working on this for a day and a half and am stumped. I made two apps in 11.5 for WIndows .exe and Mac .app that partially work, but can't get the quizzes to work in Firefox 13 or IE 9. I searched the web and could not find anything useful. I found a message in this forum from back in 2009 where someone had a similar problem and Sean WIlson said to add a parameter that specifed Player version =11, but that was back in 2009. I tried that PARAM and still get the error. I tried updating the quiz menu .dcr on the web to 11.5, but that didn't work. With all of the updates lately to browsers, the Shockwave plug-in, and Director 11.5, I don't know what is generating the error. I am assuming its Shockwave player doesn't like something, but have no idea what this movie reference to an incorrect version of Shockwave player is referring to. We're up to player 11.6 now. Do we have to include this in the embed statement or is there something else that is causing this error? Please help, thanks!
Edit: Oddly, the quizzes are still working on a MacBook Pro using Firefox 13.0.1. I don't know what the Shockwave Player version is. On the Windows 7 side of this MacBook running bootcamp, it was running Shockwave Player 11.6.4. I thought maybe I should uninstall it and install the latest 11.6.6, which I did. The latest version of Shockwave made no difference on Windows 7. I also tried to run the quizzes on an HP laptop running Windows Vista, Firefox 14.0.1 and Shockwave Player 11.6 installed back Jan 2012 accoridng to the Control Panel. Same error message. Tried it using IE 8, which just seemed to do a Shockwave update - no problem the quizzes run.

The vendor account is not associated with the file you are trying to open.Please try again.

Please help me to understand what is the problem with the set up of the program. I bought an ebook from an internet site to which my IP address was blocked (in country 1). My brother bought it on a computer in country 2 and wanted to download and send me the file so I can open it on my computer. He set up initial download without Adobe ID. Afterwards he downloaded the pdf and send it to me. I tried to upload it with my ADE reader but it didn't work without ID. My brother then deleted afterwards his ADE and installed it again, downloaded the ebook again but this time setting up an ID. He transferred me the file ,I used the same ID but then the following message appeared "The vendor account is not associated with the file you are trying to open. Please try again." . Can this be fixed somehow? I cannot open the URLLinks even as there is no connection from my IP , but I have the pdf file ( ebook) but I don't know how to set up the program.

Sorry Everyone this error message appeared in Digital Editions 4 used on a windows 8 laptop. Thanks Chris

The vendor account you entered is not associated with the item you are trying to open. Try again.

installed eBook and authorized on Adobe Digital Edition and was able to read eBook earlier.
Due to some issue I had to reinstall the eBook. Now I am unable to read eBook it is asking for Authorization and when I input my Adobe ID and pass it gives message 'The vendor account you entered is not associated with the item you are trying to open .Try again'.
I have wasted whole day trying fixing but it does not work, i wasted my money for purchasing eBook that works on Adobe Digital Edition which only adds complexity and wasting peoples time.
Is there anyone who can help answering how can I fix vendor account not associated message issue, while i am entering correct Adobe ID and pass.

"The vendor account you entered is not associated with the item you are trying to open. Please try again". How do I fix this?

Digital editions is set-up and accepting books. Everything seems fine except when I try to open the books, it asks for authorisation. I enter the Adobe ID which works when I go into the Adobe site, but gives me the error "The vendor account you entered is not associated with the item you are trying to open. Please try again". How do I fix this?

PDF attachments are trying to open in Microsoft Publisher

Why are my PDF attachments trying to open in Microsoft Publisher. I click on the attachement, Publisher opens up with a File Conversion windown opening as well. It will not open. I have to save the file, then open Adobe Acrobat, then open the file. It just started doing this a few weeks ago. Anyone know what the problem is??

I'm not sure how the issue would have started, but it sounds like you need to change your file associations so that your computer knows what program to use to open a file with a .pdf extension. Assuming you have a Windows system, below are the directions for fixing this problem (copied from the Microsoft support website):
To change which program starts when you double-click a file, follow these steps:
Open Windows Explorer by right-clicking the Start button, and then click Explore.
Click a folder that contains a file of the type that you want Windows to open in a program that you select.
Right-click the file and, depending on the programs installed on your computer, complete one of the following steps:
Click Open With to choose the program that you want.
Point to Open With, and then click Choose Program to choose the program that you want.
The Open With dialog box is displayed. Use one of the following methods to select the program that you want to use for this file type:
In the Programs list, click the program that you want to use.
Click Browse, locate and then click the program that you want to use, and then click Open.
Click Look for the appropriate program on the Web to browse the Internet for the program that you want to use.
Click to select the Always use the selected program to open this kind of file check box if it is not selected.
Click OK.
Let me know if you need more help.

Error Messages saying that Firefox, as well as other programs when trying to open them, have been marked for deletion"?

I know this probably is more of a Windows problem, but I can't figure out that site for the life of me, so I'm asking my question here.
So I went to use a program called Combo Fix to check for any viruses and all that. It worked fine and I restarted my computer just in case I needed to. Then when I went to open Firefox, an error message came up saying something like "Illegal Operation Attempted on registry key marked for deletion." I then tried to open another program that I've had for a few years now that runs perfectly (MikuMikuDance aka MMD). It did the same. I went to open Microsoft Word and I still got the error message.
I have no idea how I should fix this. I'm currently typing this in Safe Mode because its the only way I could get online again to search for solutions.

By the way, the fact that the error does not occur in Safe Mode is interesting, as in normal mode Firefox may be checking the registry key related to Firefox extensions at startup. And that key would be a logical target for deletion of any references to malware. However, I've never seen a specific list of registry read/writes for Firefox startup, so that's just a guess.

Program error trying to open files

Tried contacting @adobecares on twitter they suggested posting on here.. thanks in advance.

I tried, then restarted as well after doing so but still no luck unfortunately.

Ipod locks up any program that tries to access it

Like the title says, everytime I try to connect my iPod to any computer Itunes, windows explorer, winamp, or any other iPod manager freezes. This may have happened because I disconnected it while the "do not disconnect" symbol was there. I understand I may have to restore it but how can I do so with the computer freezing everytime?
The Ipod itself is acting a abnormal. The time is stuck at 3:18 and can't be changed since it freezes when you try.
Any help would be appreciated!
I'm really hoping I don't have to bring it into the Apple store

Really strange. If I 'catch' the drive before it's powered down and eject the disk once Handbrake has finished, it's fine - and will do another. If I leave it for a minute, the drive just switches off completely. So so strange. I wonder if Handbrake is to blame?
I've tried it on another user account as suggested, and it does the same thing. I'm going to try not using Handbrake and just play it, stop it, try to eject it and see what happens. Thanks for your help.
