Tony,
It's under Accounts: Login Items. I believe you just need to delete here. If you don't find it here, look in User Library under folder LaunchAgents

OS X warns of "out of disk space", but lies!
Posted by: "DaveC" davec2468@yahoo.com davec2468
Tue Apr 17, 2012 8:32 am (PDT)
When I sat down to my Mac mini this morning, I saw that it has not
gone to sleep overnight as is usual. The screens were dark but lit up
after a period of time. The clock showed 11:45 pm.
Slowly the mini responded, putting itself to sleep. I woke it up and
entered the password -- still it was very sluggish. The first thing I
see is a dialog warning me that the startup disk is full and there is
no room left for applications, and that I must force quit all unused
apps (all apps are listed there with a Force Quit button below). I
force-quit all apps and restarted the mini.
After restarting I see that there's plenty of disk space available
(750 GB drive; one volume: 600 GB in size, 200 GB available; the
other volume: 150 in size, 125 GB available).
All seems calm right now.
What happened?
Last night I wasn't running any applications out of the ordinary:
Bean, Safari, Eudora,
I'm up-to-date on all system software including the latest security
updates and java updates from Apple. I ran the 3 Terminal commands to
look for evidence of the recent trojan which were all negative.
Thanks,
Dave

Nothing sinister, no trojan, trojans don't want to be detected. Just something filled up a cache. Calm down, every little hiccup is not malware.
You had a word processor, browser and email apps open. If I had to pick one, I would have said the browser, but if it went to sleep, I doubt that. I know I sometimes have issues with FireFox hogging all the memory, but not the storage, and that it sometimes blocks the shut down process.
Instead of force quitting, I would have opened a window and seen what was using all the disk space. I'm sure you would have found a cache or hidden file that was huge.
Do you my any chance have a Canon scanner. They have an annoying little hidden app that will fill Console will search, every couple of seconds for the scanner and commands from the buttons on the scanner. It is easily removed and defeated, but easy to temporarily put back in place if you know about it. You won't see this little bit of code with Force Quit, but you can find and force quit it in Activity Monitor.
Do you normally leave it on all the time, or did something block the shutdown?
If you just wanted to clear the problem, without knowing the reason, I would have just restarted without force quitting all the apps.
BTW, without telling us which of the partitions on your Mini you were running in, that info does not help to solve the problem.

Typo clarification:
The little app that comes with some of the Canon scanners, _will_ search for the scanner and button commands.

Shrinking iMAC
Posted by: "Joan Mihay" jmihay@charter.net mihayjoan
Tue Apr 17, 2012 8:34 am (PDT)
Hi,
I'm using an iMac;
Model Identifier: iMac8,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 3.06 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 2 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version: IM81.00C1.B00
SMC Version (system): 1.30f1
Serial Number (system): W88232F40N4
Hardware UUID: 2320F528-65CC-57B6-B1E4- 25336C8A9DF3
The monitor is 22"inches wide but is failing to make the final
adjustment to the large screen when opening and is only opening to a
17 inch wide screen. I can, of course, still use it, but would like to
know if this is anything I could fix at home or if I need take it
quite a distance to a Mac Store to regain the large screen.
Thank you for this and past help.

Joan,
Glad you found an answer.
Just for good practices and security, don't publish your serial number and Hardware UUID.
Funny, i can only find a 22" iMac, the model identifier tells me it is either a 20" or 24" early 2008.

Howdy.
Joan, have you opened the Displays panel in System Preferences to see
what the monitor resolution is set at?
You might have changed the resolution to a lower one. An application
could possibly have changed it.
Generally speaking the highest resolution you see in the list will be
the normal one for your monitor.
So on my 24 inch Samsung the highest resolution is 1920 x 1200.
If I choose 1280 x 960, things on screen, like letters and characters,
will be larger but you won't have as much "screen real estate,"
visible.

Re: Quicken 2007 (Lion) can't print checks
Posted by: "Harriet Lord" hlord1@me.com hlordhlord
Tue Apr 17, 2012 9:02 am (PDT)
I did get a reply from Quicken on a discussion group at Quicken's website - what intuit calls "Quicken Live Community". The reply was from a Quicken employee and it worked. Here it is:
***
Try this:
1. Select Quicken 2007 > Preferences > Print Checks
2. Select the "Restore Defaults" button
3. Select the "Save Changes" button
After completing the above steps you should then be able to edit your check-printing settings and print checks.
***
This actually worked! Once they figure out how I can use "Scheduled transactions" without having Quicken crash I'll go back to Quicken from Quicken Essentials.
Quicken also crashes when I click on the calendar icon in the date column in the check register, but I consider this to be a minor problem.

canoscan 9900f scanner and OS 10.6.8
Posted by: "Curt Hudson" curt183@snip.net orion183
Tue Apr 17, 2012 9:03 am (PDT)
I have a Canon Canoscan 9900F flatbed scanner that I am trying to use with my new imac (OS 10.6.8). The scanner worked fine on my G5 but now there seems to be no support for drivers for 10.6. I've looked at Canon's website and no driver. CNet may have a driver but I am not sure. Nothing specific for the 9900.
Apple's support and support communities show others with the same problem but the latest post was from last August, again with no real solution.
I've used System Profiler and the computer sees the scanner, but that's it.
Anybody have a similar problem that's been resolved?
Thanks,
Curt

I would look into VueScan. It has a very wide range of drivers for
scanners and the 9900f is listed as among those with which it works.
Go to www.hamrick.com and download the free trial to confirm it works
with yours. It costs $39.95 USD. Be sure to try the version that
works with your OS.

I have the same problem with my Canoscan 8400F. What I did was use the
latest version of the driver available and CanoScan ToolBox. Make sure you
do a Get Info in Finder on the CanoScan Toolbox app (Command-i) and check
the box for "Open in 32-bit mode". The scanner does not work in 64-bit
mode, so any app that can see your scanner can only work in 32-bit mode.
(For the 9900F, the latest downloads are for OS X 10.4 - Tiger)
Hope this helps.

Re: How can I trash Newstand?

The free version of NYT works , but either way you cannot move the NYT in or out of Newsstand.
Unless the periodical app is written for Newsstand you can not place it in Newsstand, and if it is you can not move the periodical out of Newsstand. I suspect most of the periodical apps written for Newsstand are paid versions only.

System Administrator Userid Cannot Logout
Posted by: "Jon Kreisler" jonkreisler@gmail.com jonkreisler
Tue Apr 17, 2012 10:40 am (PDT)
This one has me a bit stumped.
I enabled the root userid. If I have one or two other userids logged on and
switch user (to Login Window) and then login as "other" and then the root
id and password, I am able to logon fine.
However, when I am done with the session and try to logout
(Command-Shift-Q), a different logged on userid gets the warning dialog box
to quit running apps and logout. (Different userids each time.)
The root session is unaffected, no matter how many times I try to logout.
I think this is new to Lion 10.7.3, because I know in the past I have not
had any problems with using the root id.
Has anyone encountered this issue? Any ideas? (I have already tried killing
the launchd process for the root session, but System Administrator is still
present in the list of logged on users.)
TIA

I had this problem when troubleshooting something else with an Apple Care Level 2 specialist.
We couldn't resolve. We speculated that this is set up so that the Root User logs out last. If you log out of the other users first, you can then log out of Root. I had been troubleshooting my issue for a couple of weeks with Apple so I wasn't that interested in solving the Root issue since it wasn't related to my original problem and I rarely use Root.

iOS Mail
Posted by: "Harry Flaxman" harry.flaxman@me.com hflaxman001
Tue Apr 17, 2012 10:48 am (PDT)
Can anyone that uses iOS Mail answer a question for me? I have not used
it long and am not familiar with settings, gestures, etc.
How does one, if possible, higlight an area of an incoming mail, reply
to it so that only the highlighted area is repeated, as in standard
Apple Mail.
I hope that's not confusing. Highlighting text in Apple Mail and
replying, by default, quotes only the highlighted text.
I'm having a hard time getting rid of excess junk in quoted outgoing
messages.
Does anyone have any 'tricks' that they use to overcome this?

I just tried it and it worked the same way. Highlight the text you want and
hit replay. The new email only includes what was selected.
For those that use the Gmail app like I do; it does not do it,
unfortunately.

I'm glad someone asked this question. I've been wondering how to select only a portion of an email when responding. And now I know how to do it. So simple...I should have been able to figure it out.
Thanks, Harry!

Samsung display - need better calibration
Posted by: "klondike12345" klondike12345@yahoo.com klondike12345
Tue Apr 17, 2012 12:13 pm (PDT)
I just bought a Mac Mini and a low end Samsung SyncMaster B2430 display
I'm very happy with the Mini and have more memory on the way, However
I'm looking for better ways to calibrate the Samsung display. Using the normal Apple screen calibration function (in System Prefs) works well up to a certain point, but the display only has rudimentary picture controls (bright, contrast sharpness) that only helps the picture in a limited way
I'm wondering if there are any types of software / freeware out there that can help me calibrate this new display more thoroughly. I'm even having trouble getting my screen brighter, even the SHADES freeware only brightens the screen a little bit more
Any help would be appreciated in making this display look better, as it's a little dark and pixelated now. - I feel like I'm only getting 80% out of it - - THANKS
