Why do office applications autostart when they are disabled in login items and individually in 'open at login' in dock?

When I start the Mac word, excel, powerpoint and skype all autostart. I already tried some of the posted solutions to this like changing the system preferences (login items) and disabling the 'open at login' for each application on the dock, but it doesn't seem to work. What am I missing? 

One of the features of Mac OS X Lion (the system you are running) is that it restarts all applications that were running the last time you were logged in.
So, if you are now running e.g. Word, Mail, Skype, then they will all automatically relaunch upon your next login.
When you logout/shut down/restart, you get a dialog asking whether you are sure to logout. In that dialog there is a checkmark that indicates whether all running apllications have to be relaunched upon your next login. If you deselect the checkmark, your running applications won't automatically relaunch on your next login.

  • A few months ago, my G5 started up with the address book and mail opened at startup. They are not in startup items, and I cannot get this to stop. Any suggestions?

    A few months ago, my power mac G5 began starting up with the address book and mail already open on the desk top.
    Neither of these is in my startup items, so I am at a loss as to stop this behavior.
    Any suggestions?

    Are they in Login items under System Preferences/Users/Login Items?
    In the Dock, right click the Address Book and Mail icons, select Options, and make sure "Open at Login" is not selected.

  • Quicktime using associations in Firefox when they are disabled.

    I have been having this problem every time I install Quicktime. The files I view at work are mainly .tif's and .mdi's (Microsoft Document Imaging files). When I install Quicktime suddenly it opens the .tif's I download to view, even though the associations are disabled in the plug-in on the browser, and in my Folder Options they are still associated with the Microsoft Document Imaging program. Weird if you ask me! Any solutions? When I open the files they open in a second tab using the QuickTime Plugin, instead of my Microsoft Document Imaging.
    Thanks!

    Have you tryed unchecking the tif's in QT settings listed in Browser>Mime settings... and File Types? I have tif's associated with ACDSee in the Folder Options control panel under File Types, and unchecked in the QT preferences and QT is not interferring with them.

  • HT4743 why are TV series not available on Itunes when they are over 2 years old and are available with Netfox & Lovefilms, E,G The Americans series 1 but not 2 or 3, Revenge series 1 & 2 but not 3. can anyone help were I can download them please

    Itunes is not up to date with these series, Revenge series 3 and The Americans 2 & 3, can anyone help were I can stream this to my Mac or ITV please

    It is up to the content owner as to when, and if, specific content is available on itunes (or any outlet for that matter). Very often a network or production compnat willhave exclusive deals with streaming outlets for a period of time before a seaon of a series is available elsewhere.
    I can't speak to most of the shows you reference, but in the case of The Americans, there has only been one season so far. Season two isn't schedule for broadcast until February of next year.

  • Saved files as .PSD now they are "Windows Shell Common Dll" and won't open?

    I am having a problem with opening some files in Photoshop. I am using Photoshop CS5.1 Extended (Version 12.1) and have Windows 7 64 bit SP1 OS.
    I am trying to open a few templates I made in PhotoShop for a client and they worked fine when I used them 3 weeks ago. All were saved as .psd documents. Now when I go to open them they no longer have the PS icon (to show they would be opened by PhotoShop). When I try to open them I get "Could not complete your request because it is not the right type of document." I have had this problem once before but it is confusing to me because 2 of the other similar .psd files I saved at the same timeframe(separate elements for the temlate) are perfectly fine, only the ones I need do not want to open.
    I checked file properties and it claims these files are now Windows Shell Common Dll files. Any ideas?

    I guess you were able to open them in photoshop with open as.
    In the future you should probably try to avoid using periods in the image file names other than for the file type extension.
    You could use - or_ in place of the periods as in VotePedia Invoice 1_5_13  or VotePedia Invoice 1-5-13
    Also, as Noel suggested, going into Control Panel>Appearace and Personalization>Folder Options>View
    and unchecking Hide extensions for known file types will help as well.

    Why can't I install apps. When they are free?

    Try anything from the 12 Days of Christmas app or any other app from the App Store.
    1. Tap the "Free" button
    2. Tap the "Install App" button
    The button will switch to the "Installing" button quickly and then go back to the "Free" button and thats it.  No workie!
    Can't believe this is broken.

    When I upgraded my iPhone 4s to IOS7, I lost all my app icons. Where did they go? Interestingly they are still listed in notifications and I could play words with friends when I got a message on the home screen that it was my turn (but still no icon)

    Hey linfrommi,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are having trouble locating some application after the update to iOS 7. To troubleshoot this issue, let’s reset the home screen layout of your iPhone, which should move all of your applications to the second “page”:
    Reset iPhone settings - iPhone

  • Apple says  Reminders works with Outlook, but I can't find where the lists are displayed in Office or Outlook  once they are synced.

    Apple says  Reminders works with Outlook, but I can't find where the lists are displayed in Office or Outlook  once they are synced. Any suggestions?

    I'll guess you've already discovered the answer to this, but just in case:
    Reminders works with Outlook tasks by syncing with iCloud, or through Exchange. You can't sync iOS Reminders with Outlook Tasks via USB/iTunes (like you can do with Notes, Calendar, Contacts).
    So the marketing material on Reminders is a little misleading in that it's not specific enough -- there is no syncing without one of those intermediary systems mentioned above.
    On a side note, syncing Tasks/Reminders via iCloud is not very good in my opinion:
    Requires that you sync to the cloud, even if you have no other use for storing personal data in the cloud.
    Requires that the iCloud Control Panel be installed on your PC (not sure about Mac).
    After syncing, you'll find new Calendar and Task groups called "iCloud" have been created in Outlook. The calendar groups appear to be created even if you're only syncing Tasks/Remminders (not sure why).
    Reminders are stored in the new group (noted above) called "iCloud" rather than in your default Tasks group. This seems to me to be a sort of "parallel" sync, rather than a true sync with Outlook. There are oter implications of your synced tasks being in the new group that I won't go into here, but you can search the interwebs to learn more.
    In my own case, I tried iCloud syncing, decided that I didn't like it for the reasons stated above, and then uninstalled (Control Panel and new Outlook groups) with no apparent ill effects.
    Though I don't guarantee you'll have the same results, it might be worth a try to see if it suits your purposes.

  • My form was created by FormsCentral.  I save as a PDF and emailed it to all of my club members.  When they complete the form, save it, and email it back to me, I get a blank form. Why?

    My form was created by FormsCentral.  I save as a PDF and emailed it to all of my club members.  When they complete the form, save it, and email it back to me, I get a blank form. Why?

    If you had iCloud backup turned on, and it made a backup - yes.  If you didn't have iCloud backup turned on - but were using iCloud for Contacts, calendars, etc.  You will get the contacts and calendars, etc back.
    Purchases made with your appleID can be redownloaded as long as they are still available in the iTunes store.
    If you connected your phone to a computer with iTunes, there may be a backup on there as well.

  • ACL does not correctly order the permissions when they are updated

    Outlook Connector sjab32.dll 7.1.228.0 sjms32.dll 7.1.228.0 sjui32.dll 7.1.228.0 sjtp32.dll 7.1.228.0
    Problem: We have identifed an issue with editing calendar permissions using the Outlook Connector. Basically the calendar ACEs are evaluated on a first match basic. Outlook Connector does not correctly order the permissions when they are updated. A brief example is below. Editing permissions via UWC works fine and will in fact fix any out of order ACE entries.
    Basic calendar permission:
    1.aces=@@o^a^rsf^g;@@o^p^rw^g;@@o^c^wdeic^g;@^a^sf^g;@^c^^g;@^p^r^g^
    after adding user mab, Ace has now been re-ordered so that the everyone permissions are now before the owner permissions:
    2.aces=mab^p^r^g;mab^c^rwd^g;mab^a^rsf^g;@^c^rwd^d;@^c^^g;@^p^r^g;@^a^sf^g;@@o^c^wdeic^g;@@o^p^rw^g;@@o^a^rsf^g
    any suggestion as to why this re-ordering is happening when updated through OC and any supporting doucuments for ACL

    Hi,
    This issue is most likely related to bug #6471869 (Outlook Connector allows invites to users with restricted permissions). This has been fixed in the latest Outlook Connector 7.1_233 (aka 122018-09). I recommend logging a Sun support case to get a copy of this new release.
    Regards,
    Shane.

    In other words, how does your explanation account for ED (enhanced definition)?
    ED is generally considered to be 576p or 480p, but this is not universally accepted and these resolutions are often accepted as HD also. Additionally an ED signal uses non square pixels just as SD does so the horizontal pixel dimensions should be no more than 720. Exactly how the tv would treat these resolutions I don't know (yet).
    If you have a copy of the source code for the function that displays the HD icon, please post it so I can take a look at it.
    Why should I have such a copy and why is it relevant. The issue here is that the OP believes his video is incorrectly labelled HD which is not the case. There may or may not be anomalies in the way the tv attributes the HD label to some files (although it isn't the case for me), however the OP has incorrectly converted his source video and they are no longer SD, they are also not ED by whichever definition you wish to apply and any such anomalies should they exist are not responsible for the OP's files being labelled HD.
