Un-wanted Auto Loading Application

I recently executed a restore of my system. I loaded the OS from the DVD drive. Executed the system updates to bring the OS up to 10.4.4. Then used the migration wizard to bring all of my files and applications back from a backup (the backup was already running 10.4.4).
Everything works fine except for one thing...Omni Graffle Pro starts automatically every time I log in.
I never had it set to do that in the past. And for the life of me, I can not see where it is being called. I have checked all of the obvious places (i.e. StartUpItems, rc files, .profile files, account startup items).
When checking the console logs I see two unusual things that might mean something to those of you smarter than I am:
1) 2006-01-16 13:31:30.340 OmniGraffle Professional[212] launch path not accessible
2) The mdimportserver looks like it is trying to import some Omni Graffle files, even though these files have not been looked at in months.
Anyone got any ideas on where I can look next?

Hi Swdowns, you could try renaming these files
com.apple.LaunchServices.plist
com.apple.Loginwindow.plist
Loginwindow.plist
and this should remove everything from starting automatically, So you can start a fresh.
Cheers

Auto loading of username and password are taking place on one site and only one site and I do not want this to happen but can"t get it to stop.

As my question states I don't want auto loading on any site and it only happens on this one site. I have went thru tools and options and there are no sites listed for auto loading. There are no saved passwords. If I go to the site using Internet explorer the problem does not occur.

Ok, no problem i found this help articles:

Hello Bradley,
sometimes the "opm.db file" is the culprit. In this case you should delete it.
But as much as I regret it and as strange as it may seem I fear it's a challenge for Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.
Sometimes - for whatever reasons - CC doesn't "want" to work. In this case you should CC completely delete and reinstall by help of Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. (A try to uninstall by own resources is not enough!)
I quote: ... helps resolve installation problems for Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Creative Suite (CS3-CS6) applications. The tool removes installation records for prerelease installations of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications. It does not affect existing installations of previous versions of Creative Cloud or Creative Suite applications.
Please use: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html and follow the prescribed sequence of operations
If necessary and for further questions click through http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html or http://helpx.adobe.com/de/contact.html and if "open" please use chat, I had the best experiences.
Good luck!

How do I stop last web pages from auto loading in Safari?

I find the feature of Lion that auto-loads previous web pages (and previous open applications) annoying. I want to stop this function. I see the checked box that asks if I want to re-open applications when logging out but I want the default to be to NOT re-open the apps. I equally dislike the auto-opening of previous web pages in Safari. I know that I can clear my history but what I want is for my homepage to open when I run Safari and not the last page viewed. Any solutions?
Found this for Safari in the forums...
Go to terminal and type in the following:
defaults write com.apple.Safari ApplePersistenceIgnoreState YES
If you decide that you rather have the new resume behavior, execute the above commands but change YES to NO.
You can also do the same for Preview:
defaults write com.apple.Preview ApplePersistenceIgnoreState YES

iDrifter: The full command is:
defaults write com.apple.Preview ApplePersistenceIgnoreState YES
I was having the same problem and this is what I did:
1) Closed Safari
2) Changed the setting (mentioned) above in System Preferences
3) Enter the "defaults write ..." command into Terminal.
Now whever I launch Safari it does not load any pages.
HTH,

Auto load archassistant with sudo permission

I want to auto load archassistant after startup as a superuser in my kdemod4 laptop.
Could someone tell me how to achieve it?
Thanks

rc.local won't work because that's boot time and archassistant needs X.
what you do is run
sudo visudo
which will open a vim session. Hit 'i'
Add this to the bottom:
your_user_name_here ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/archassistant
Hit 'ESC' once
Hold 'Shift' and press 'Z' twice to save your changes
Then add "sudo archassistant" in your KDE4 control panel to startup applications. It may be under "Sessions" or something. I don't have KDE4 so I can't tell you exactly.

How do I load my hubby's backed up contacts from itune to my phone with his new sim - itunes is registering my serial number and wants to load my contacts

We are fairly new iPhone users and my hubby lost (misplace he says) his iPhone but we had an another phone (not iPhone) and want to load his contacts onto a new SIM that he can use on that phone. We have changed his phone number to the new sim. I thought if I put his SIM in my iphone I could go in & add his backed up contacts onto his Sim but can't see how I can direct iTunes to do this as it must be looking at the phone serial number instead of the phone number which I was hoping it would do. I wants to back up & sync my contacts/info to his new SIM? Is anyone able to tell me how I can get his contacts onto his SIM without a new iPhone?
Thanks for your help.
Jacki

No contact information is stored in iTunes. Contact information is synced through iTunes to a supported contact application on your computer: Outlook, Windows Address Book, OS X Address Book. Unless you own a sim card reader/writer, you're gonna have to manually enter these contacts directly on the phone.

Just got my 1st iMac, trying to load my iTunes library, but it only seems to want to load "purchased" music, not the music I've loaded by disc etc

Auto load of vendors

Hi every body,
Can any one help me in solving a problem to auto load of vendors from one organisation to another,
thank you,
ram

Hello Sunder,
What do you mean by auto load from one organization to another? Please provide additional information.
If you mean that you already created vendor data for one purchase organization and wanted to extend for another pur organization, then there is std LSMW object is available for creating vendor master data. but this is not automatic, you need to provide the data.
If you mean updates from legacy system to SAP system, in that case also you need to provide the IDoc/flat file which will upload data in SAP system regularly.

Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion
You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99.
If you sign into the App Store and try to purchase Mountain Lion but the App Store says your computer is not compatible then you may still be able to upgrade to Lion per the following information.
A. Upgrading to Mountain Lion or Mavericks
To upgrade to Mountain Lion or Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion or Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mountain Lion — System Requirements
     OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
B. Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

TMW: auto loading employee list in time data screen

Hi all,
Within TMW one can have an employee list. I'd like to get the employee selection auto loaded in the time data subscreen. Without double clicking on the employee selection or using the button "copy selected records".
Anyone have an idea how to do this?
Please help!
Kr,
Jonathan

Sakira,
Thanks for the feedback. I don't think i was clear enough, sorry.
The problem i have is in the Time Manager Workplace. There a user gets an employee selection (we are using the multiple persons view btw). If the user wants to register absences for his/her crew he still needs to transfer his crew members to the time data screen.
Standard only the first person of his crew is transfered. It would be really helpfull if his complete crew was transfered automatically. So he starts TMW and can immediately start registering absences for his crew.
BTW thanks for the quick response!
Kr,
Jonathan

Problems loading applications using Blackberry Desktop software

I am using a Blackberry Bold 9000 with OS 5.0.0.681 (Bundle 1137, Platform 5.2.064) and Desktop Software 6.0.0.40 (Bundle 42) on Windows XP. I have about 20 MB of memory available for apps, but I cannot load new applications using Blackberry Desktop software. Now I can remove or unload software with no problem. However, when I attempt to load applications or software that I don't have, the following happens: I can click on the grey cross icon under "Action" to indicate I want the module and status changes to "Pending Install". The apps I want are English UK, Spanish, Supplemental SureType Wordlists for English and Spanish, Blackberry Application Centre, DOD Root Certificates, TTY Support. I then see the following on on the screen: "Update - Uploading Device software -->" "Update - Loading applications -->" "Loading device modules -->" "Loading applications from device - Searching for available device software -->" "Loading applications from device - Read device service information -->" "Loading applications from device - Searching for available device software -->" And lo and behold - the applications are not loaded; they appear as uninstalled in the application list and I can't access them on my Blackberry. During this process the phone does not reboot... previously when changes were made the phone would reboot. My question is, is there a way to force Desktop Manager to load the applications? How can I load the software I want? I have done a wipe and reinstall of apps and OS on my phone; delete and registry clean of my laptop followed by reinstallation of Desktop Software; battery pull and SIM card pull, but to no avail. This is frustrating as I have friends with whom I converse with in Spanish but it isn't my first language so the spell checker is very useful. Any help would be appreciated.

Same problem, after weeks of no problems.
Hard reboot of 8520 several times, reboot desktop, tried different USB ports.
Intellisync crashes on organizer sync and Destop Manager cannot read applications.
Is there a fix?

Auto-load tabs ?

I've successfully auto-loaded my tabs, but is there a way to auto-load "Top Sites" also into a new tab? (I know I can set any newly opened tabs to load "Top Sites"). I am so lazy that I can hardly bring myself to type command-T. Any good way to do this?
In other words, I want the browser to open with tabs for site A, site B, site C, as well as "Top Sites". I can do A, B, and C, but Top Sites doesn't seem to have a conventional URL.

Auto Load Apps

Is there any way to auto load my most frequently used apps when I boot up my PB?

Hi MountainDew,
Thanks for your question about your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet.
Currently you would need to relaunch your applications after powering on your device.
If you wish to keep these applications running, use Stand By on your tablet rather than powering off. This will keep those apps running as your tablet is still actively running.
Hope this helps.

Load application setting on startup

Hi,
I want to load some parameters from ini file on application startup = click on exe file and load setting on FormCreate event in classic RAD software.
How can I do this in Labview?
Thank you.

When the executable is first run, you just read in the ini file. No event needed.
Edit: To clarify, LabVIEW code runs like a flowchart, so at the beginning of your application's "flowchart" you put your ReadFromConfig code.

Module 'asus-nb-wmi' stopped being auto-loaded after kernel update

Well, the module 'asus-nb-wmi' which takes care of some FN keys and keyboard backlight stopped being auto-loaded after the latest kernel udpate (3.9.3), so I had to add it to /etc/modules-load.d/ to get it working. This has happened before, between kernel updates and I had to re-install arch to fix it, but now I found that manually adding the module is a nice solution, but I want it to be loaded automatically or at least know why does this happen. Kernel modules, such as this one, should be loaded automatically right?
Best regards.

I think there is a valid question here; Same thing happened to me.
Upon a default install of arch, the module was auto-loaded without the user touching any configuration files
at some point during kernel updates, the module is no longer auto-loaded
the user then has to find out what is happening and go add the module to the appropriate config file to force load on boot.
So the larger question is; without config files being taken into consideration, how does the kernel decide what modules to load? f
I know it has something to do with the hardware that it detects, but am unaware if this is something within the RC or systemctl booting system, or if this is part of the kernel.
I'm going to dig around some more on the internet, as i'm sure the answer is out there somewhere.. but if someone that is on this forum happens to read and know the answer, it would be nice to know
thanks
