Turned off ALL startup programs with "select all" - Windows 8

I was trying to increase available memory and decrease the start up time on my Window 8 run Ideapad,  by selecting "all" and "remove from startup". Now almost nothing comes up at start up (should I be surprised?!?!).  I can log in, but do not have any other options on the screen to choose from (e.g., no menu bar, cntrl/alt/delete does not bring up a management panel). 
Any suggestions for this foolish Win 8 newbie would be most appreciated.

...some more info on this situation. 
The system boots relatively quickly to the "Welcome Screen" and after signing in it takes another 3 minutes for me to have a useable system - although that is not completely accurate.  In the course of the 3 minute wait, I am able to start the Task Manager; and by use of the Lenovo "black button" I can get into the Control Panel.  So it seems a large part of the wait time is spent being on hold until Windows Explorer is clear to start.  
If I disable all non-Microsoft services via "msconfig", I get a very quick (at least, relatively) startup; however, I am unable to identify which of the non-MS services is giving me grief (or which ones, if there are more than one).  Likewise, a boot in "Safe mode" also provides a fast start up. 
Hopefully, some bright soul(s) - from Lenovo or MS or ??? - will come up with a solution to this predicament; altho', at this point, maybe not in time for Christmas!

  • Can I turn off the Ken Burns effect from all stills at once?

    I am using iMovie 09.  I am creating a slideshow.  I want to turn off the Ken Burns effect from all stills.  Is there a way to do this in one operation?
    Mary Lou

    Yes. Select one still. Open the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool on the middle Toolbar. Set it to FIT (for letterboxing) or to CROP (for it to fill the screen, but cut off the top and bottom). This will turn off Ken Burns.
    Now select the photo you just adjusted and EDIT/COPY (or Command-C).
    Now click EDIT/SELECT ALL (or Command-A) to select all photos.
    Finally, click EDIT/PASTE ADJUSTMENTS/CROP ADJUSTMENTS to apply to all photos.

    IF you have successfully imported your pictures to your Mac http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083  then it's safe to delete it from your phone.
    If you want the pics back on your phone, just sync them back using itunes http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236

    Ipad mini, after ios7 upgrade if turn off the mobile data, my carrier gets turned off and wifi doesnt work at all. Its slow and app store crashes everytime. Help me to gowngrade to ios6. This really *****.

    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then restart your iPad.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, then swipe the slider to power off.
    Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Downgrading is not an option for an iOS device.

  • How do I turn off "your recent download with your apple id" emails? Annoyingly often and they fill up my inbox.

    How do I turn off "your recent download with your apple id" emails? Annoyingly often and they fill up my inbox.  Is there a way to unsubscribe from these?

    It is in Settings>iTunes & App Stores to change automatic downloads. But it isn't your device that needs to be changed if you are the one that made the download. He needs to turn off the setting for automatic downloads on his phone. I'm guessing here, but you are all sharing the same Apple ID?

  • How do i turn off the startup sound on macbook pro?

    how do i turn off the startup sound on macbook pro?

    You don't. You may find some third-party software that will, however. Try Auto Mute.
    Alternatively, you can try this:
    I think this is the best and simplest solution. Open a Terminal window and type (or copy/paste) the following to turn down the startup noise:
         sudo nvram SystemAudioVolume="%00"
    Press RETURN.
    And to restore it to the original value type:
         sudo nvram -d SystemAudioVolume
    Press RETURN.
    That's all folks.

    have a question I do not use mail in my computer I use yahoo and I have all these emails and selected all and then delete then delete trash and they always come back how do I stop these old email in apple mail? I never send anything from there but I have the same email in yahoo but delete them and they still show up in apple mail from day one how do I get rid of these once and for all.Please help
    <Edited by Host>

    I am soooooooooooo confused now.  Ok, if you are having problems with Yahoo Mail and Gmail but you do not use Apple's Mail you need to do the following:
    1 - Post in Yahoo's Mail forums and/or contact their tech support.
    2 - Post in Gmails forums and/or contact their tech support.
    Neither of the above are Apple's products.

  • Turning off a remote PC with LV

    HI,
    I want to know if anyone knows if it is possible to turn off a remote PC with a LV program. We have one PC supervision that stays always on and 2 other PCs that are on the same network. The other PCs do not have KVM and we need to turn them off once in a while within our application. Right now when we want to turn them off we have to remote desktop and turn them off, not possible when the application is running.
    Thanks

    you can use the computer name in the shutdown command
    C:\>shutdown
    Usage: shutdown [-i | -l | -s | -r | -a] [-f] [-m \\computername] [-t xx] [-c "c
    omment"] [-d up:xx:yy]
            No args                 Display this message (same as -?)
            -i                      Display GUI interface, must be the first option

  • Turning off the startup chime?

    Anyone knows how to turn off the startup chime? It's a bit embarassing if I start my Mac during classes...

    You're welcome anytime.
    Please do keep in mind that the startup sound isn't just there to 'annoy'
    It's more vital reason for excistence is to inform you when there are problems during startup, like bad RAM or the like.
    So once in a while or when not at school, you should enable it again, just to make sure everythings still ok.
    Have Fun and thanks for the star.

  • Why does Mobile Data notification keep coming up saying 'Mobile Data is turned off for "Numbers" and I have to click on OK to get rid of it? I KNOW it's turned off for that program because that is what I want it to be set at. What I DON'T want is to have

    Why does Mobile Data notification keep coming up saying 'Mobile Data is turned off for "Numbers" and I have to click on OK to get rid of it? I KNOW it's turned off for that program because that is what I want it to be set at. What I DON'T want is to have to click on OK EVERY TIME I open the program when I'm away from wifi.

    That is how it works in general, not just for Numbers. It irritates me on other apps at times, although I can see an argument that if it didn't do that then people would complain about missing functionality after they forgot they had turned data off for an app. At any rate, this is a user to user support forum and we can't do anything about it. If you want to make a suggestion to Apple, following is a place to do that: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
