Yosemite - Changed Startup Sequence

I noticed the start-up sequence has changed in Yosemite. Rather than going from a progress bar indicator to the login window, Yosemite presents you with the login window right away, i.e.: as soon as the machine is switched on --and I kind of like this new arrangement. Unfortunately, though, I had to re-install Yosemite and now the start-up sequence has gone back to its TRADITIONAL mode (i.e.: progress bar followed by login window). Does anybody know how I can get the system to revert to the NEW start-up sequence?

Brilliant, thanks! ... and happy new year!

Can't use MS keyboard to change startup sequence

I'm using a MS Ergonomic Natural Keyboard 4000 with my Mac Pro (10.6.1); I can't select alternate sequences during the startup (Option to choose the startup device, or Cmd-Shift-Option-Delete to automatically select a FW external drive).
One place told me that third-party devices weren't recognized early enough in the startup sequence to change the startup drive, this is sort of what MS also told me, they said I needed to make sure the USB keyboard option (or something similarly named) was activated in the BIOS…(do Macs even have BIOS?)
Anyway if someone knows of a workaround (other than changing the startup drive in the System Preferences) that would be great.

That ability is reserved for Macs that don't already have a built-in optical drive.
I bet you probably looked at some of the guides online telling you to edit a plist file that supposedly unlocks the ability to create a bootable USB drive on a Mac that has a SuperDrive. But that's all it does. It doesn't change anything else about the process of Boot Camp Assistant creating the partition and requiring installation be done with the SuperDrive. All that modification does is literally "un-gray" a checkbox.
Is it annoying that the SuperDrive must be used? No doubt, especially since this restriction was in not in place for older Macs. This is something that Apple would have to address via an SMC or other update, but the odds of that happening are less than those of you winning the Power Ball. It's a restriction you'll have to live with, unless you want to "upgrade" to a Retina display model.

Changed startup sequence with OS 3

after upgrading both my iphones (2G and 3G) show a different startup sequence.
with 2.2.1:
- apple logo
- 1st page of summerboard with message "SIM Locked: OK or Unlock".
- to unlock the SIM i type the password......
with 3.0:
- apple logo
- the screen turns black for an instance
- comes directly in locked position showing the wallpaper getting a message "SIM Locked".
- after unsliding i get a message "SIM Locked: OK or Unlock". to unlock the SIM i type the password......
is this a new security feature, is there a option to disable this ?

Gulliver,
great, it worked.
What I did:
- remove
com.apple.BezelServices.plist
com.apple.ATS.plist
from the preferences folder als described in your article.
- repair again permissions
Restart.
Result:
- Safari starts up and is faster
- Mail and adressbook start up again
- photoshop CS 2 starts Up
- Illusterator CS 2 Starts Up
So all is solved.
Thanks a lot.
Absolutely recommendable tipp page!

Yosemite will not install and won't let me change startup disk, it's saying there is a file system problem but disk utilities can't fix it.

I Downloaded the Yosemite upgrade and went to install it on my iMac. The install failed saying file System needed repair. Ran disk utility could do the verify but the repair button was grayed out. When I tried to change startup disk back it wouldn't let me , saying it couldn't gather enough file info. So I'm stuck and can't boot my Mac. How do I get out of this?

Do a backup. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Try to reboot normally.

What's your startup sequence?

Hi guys,
Just a quick question, and maybe silly, but I wondered what sequence other people's MacBooks booted in? The reason I ask is because I'm sure one phase didn't occur originally for me. Here's my sequence:
Press power - Superdrive makes it's strange whirring noise.
Chime
Blank grey screen for 10 seconds (does anyone else get this? I'm sure I never used to but can't remember when it started)
Grey Apple logo and spinning gear
Blue screens
Login Window
It's not really a problem, I just wondered if it was normal behaviour. I've made sure the correct startup disk is selected in system preferences so it shouldn't be struggling to find OS X. Although I do have boot camp installed whether that makes a difference...
Thanks everyone!

Hi Andrew,
I had this problem when I changed HD, startup took about 2 minutes instead of 25 seconds.
Here is how I solved:
*Reset NVRAM:*
Right after you turn on your Mac press Option-Command-P-R until you hear two beeps.
*Reset the System Management Controller (SMC):*
- If the computer is on, turn it off.
- Disconnect the AC adapter and remove the computer's battery.
- Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds and then release the button.
- Reconnect the battery and AC Adapter.
- Press the power button to restart the computer
I suggest you to try these two methods, i'm sure your startup sequence will improve, mine went back to normal 25 seconds!

WES Startup sequence events

Hi All,
I'm going to try my best to explain my situation. I have a Windows Embedded Standard 7 deployment released right now which boots up and runs fine. I just want to tweak the startup sequence of events, if possible.
We've written all the software that runs at startup from the services to the explorer shell replacement.
I have 2 videos for you to watch.
1) Explorer embedded start up for our device (Admin access only):
http://youtu.be/Ge4otXvOUvY
As you can see, I have to halt the auto login and enter the Admin user and password manually to login to the Admin account where explorer runs. What I want you to take notice here after I begin login, is the full screen black-to-blue background with
the typical Windows loading spinner running (This is Windows loading, not any of my software). This spinner and background stays on the screen until Explorer is loaded and is ready to be displayed to the user. There is no time where the user thinks
something isn't happening.
2) Normal embedded start up for our device:
http://youtu.be/4nL0uuXuqYo
As you can see, upon starting up, and our standard user automatic login, Winlogon displays a full screen black-to-blue background with the typical loading spinner running. After some time, this fades out and displays the users desktop background color
of red. At this moment in time our explorer shell replacement is still loading and is not yet visible to the user, so the user keeps seeing the red screen for some time while it loads, then without warning our explorer shell replacement is loaded and
is displayed on screen to notify the user the system is starting/doing something.
So my question is: Is there some events that our explorer shell replacement can hook onto and also trigger and event to Winlogon when the application knows its loaded and visible and the full screen loading spinner will fade out and you'll immediately see
our explorer shell replacement INSTEAD of now where it's a red background for some time?
I've found an article explaining a little about how you can change the sequence of applications that run found
here but I haven't given it a try yet. I wanted to get community feedback first.
Let me know if you need any more clarifications on this.
Thanks.

You can enable wallpaper with a custom shell. There was a post some time ago on the forum and it is in Chapter 7 of my book:
Copy the wallpaper image file to a convenient folder in the file system. Example c:\users\test\Documents\myimage.bmp.
Use Reg.exe to set up the registry:
REG ADD "HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop" /v Wallpaper /d C:\users\test\Documents\myimage.bmp
Finally call user32.dll:
rundll32 user32.dll,UpdatePerUserSystemParameters
You make the call to user32.dll on startup each and every time.

How Do I Change My Sequence Settings to Match My Clip

Hello -
I shot some footage in SD with a frame size of 16:9. When I dragged a clip into my first sequence, FCP asked 'if I wanted the Sequence to assume the properties of the clip?' I hit 'yes' which changed the sequence to match my clip. However, when I created a new sequence(in the same project) and dragged a clip into it, FCP did not prompt me with the option to change the sequence settings. Now, I have a 4:3 sequence with a letterbox 16:9 clip. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks for your help!

Then check (√) the Anamorphic checkbox.
OK
Then select everything in the timeline. (Command A)

Change the sequence of planned delivery costs in MIRO

Dear Experts,
In import an import PO the various CVD & ACD conditions are maintained in the PO .
To enter the bill of entry , MIRO is used where the invoice is booked for planned delivery costs for the PO .
In MIRO , this planned delivery costs appear by default in certain sequence. I want to change this sequence .
eg by default the system shows :
Sec Ed cess on CVD
ACD
BCD
Ed cess on BCD
CVD
Ed cess on CVD
Sec Ed Cess on BCD
I want to change the seq of appearance in MIRO.
How is it possible
Pls guide
Regards
Anis

Dear Anis bazmi
You will get the conditions as you desire one below another in PO or MIRO if you have defined them exctly the same way in your calculation schema steps, other wise there is no way in getting the way you want and it can not be changed either in PO stage or in MIRO also.
Just check, when you are processing MIRO, please select Planned delivery Costs form the menu below instead of the combination of both.
Regards

Changing screen sequence in sales order header

Hi Folks
we have a requirement to change the sequence of the screens which appear in sales order header and we need to add an additional custom screen.
Request you all to suggest how we can achieve this functionality.

Hi,
REquest you to take the help of ABAPer and do the modification in standard Program
But instead of creating a new custom tab you can use additional data B tab to cater your requirement. Its given blank in standard so that we can modify as per our requirement .So the same will be reflected in all screen no. 4013

FCP 7 crashes when choosing "yes" to changing of sequence settings for Flip

I've been doing quite a bit of work with the Flip HD video camera recently. I grew tired of rendering everything, so decided it was time to finally upgrade from FCP 5 to FCP 7.
However, FCP 7 crashes every time I try to lay down video files from the Flip camera onto a timeline.
Upon laying the files down onto the timeline, I am prompted with the message asking if I want to change the sequence settings to match the video. I click yes and immediately get "General Error" and FCP crashes.
I tried trashing the preferences. same result.
I tried updating FCP 7 to FCP 7.0.1. same result.
I even tried updating fixes for iMovie as if that would have anything to do with it. same result.
I'm currently rendering it out the same way I had been in FCP 5.
Any advice or ideas?

AVC is h.264, which is not a work-able editing format, it's a delivery format (and a consumer video camera acquisition format suitable for holiday videos going straight to YouTube), that's why you've been having to render all the time in FCP 5.
Now you're in FCP 7 and it's asking if you want to change the sequence settings to match the video, but there is no sequence setting to match AVC/h.264 so it's freaking your computer out. Still, it shouldn't crash, but that's the problem i believe.
You need to correct your work-flow by transcoding your media into something usable like ProRes, or you can choose not to change your sequence settings, and render the timeline as you have been doing in the past.

IPhoto is changing the sequence of the photos I have in my file for the book I want to create. Help?

iPhoto is changing the sequence of the photos I have in my file for the book I want to create. Help?

The problem has been solved. As it turns out, I was highlighting the photos in the album I wished to create. And then generating the request for a book. This caused the photo images when loaded into the book format to revert to the sequence used when I originally loaded them into the album. Not the edited sequence. Turns out that I did not need to highlight the photos. By eliminating this step, they remained in the edited sequence.
Thank you for responding. Warmly, Janice huseby

Correct startup sequence with external display/keyboard/mouse etc

Most laptop vendors have docking stations or other devices that enable you to use the laptop with the lid closed in conjunction with an external display/keyboard/mouse etc.
Since no such beast exists for the MBP, what is the correct startup sequence for the MBP to do the same thing? Do you plug some parts in first before/after initial power on then others later or what?
Also, the resolution on my external display is much greater than what the MBP provides with its monitor. Will I be limited to comparable resolution on the external monitor or can/will the video card sense and use (to its limits of course) the potential resolution of the external display??
Thanks

Never mind. Found the answer:

Change the sequence settings from NTSC 30 fps to PAL 25 fps, is possible?

Hello,
I have a finished project that was make in a sequence with the format NTSC 30 fps. Now I need to change that sequence and the project to PAL 25 fps. I have changed the settings of the source secuence to PAL 25, but in the resulting sequence the audio and the videos are different in time and speed.
With the videos I have make a match frame to find the source, but with the audios I have problems. ¿There is a automatic proccess in final cut pro 7.0 that could make a translation of a finished sequence that was developed in NTSC 30 ftp to a PAL 25 fps?
Can you give me a tip or something to make the trasnlation ?
Thanks in advance

Sorry...but it isn't as simple as changing a project frame rate. FCP is NOT good at mixing frame rates. And when you put NTSC footage (29.97fps), into a PAL timeline (25fps), that is exactly what you are doing. No, this won't work. No magic solution for this (although Avid MC5 does this nicely).
You are going to have to export a QT file, and let Compressor tackle this job (and it will take a WHILE, and you will have to run a few tests to see if your settings work to your satisfaction), or take that QT file to a post house with a Terranex or Snell/Wilcox to do the conversion ($$$$)...or output to tape AND THEN do the Terranex thing.
No easy button here.

SQL 2012: change startup parameter without GUI

I would like change SQL startup parameter like -l, -d,-e without using SQL Server Configuration Manager. I want to use command line...how can I do it ?

If its SQL server 2008 R2 SP2 and higher we have DMV(dm_server_registry). As the Registry holds the startup parameters can be different for different
instances using dm_server_registry DMV will return the correct path for startup parameters.
select * from sys.dm_server_registry where value_name like 'SQLArg%'
SQLArg0 identifies the master db data file.
SQLArg1 identifies the Errorlog folder.
SQLArg2 identifies the master db log file.
xp_regwrite to change startup parameter.
