I am furious. Not only that but boot-ups are taking ridiculously long as it keeps opening all sorts of random apps. Are Apple just beta-testing everything to an internal audience i. They seem paranoid with pre-launch secrecy and are not discussing upcoming features with end users which is resulting in this kind of a fiasco. I hate this feature.
This is particularly bad if recovering from a system crash. Boot up takes minutes opening word, excel, iphoto etc on the way. I have a macbook pro 2. When I uncheck the box in order to disable the feature , it still opens. Does anyone know if there is an update to fix this? As a web developer, I find this feature resume to be nothing but a major pain in the ass. I often have every major Mac browser open, with multiple tabs open in each no kidding, not unusual to have tabs open in FF, Safari, and Chrome, plus one or two instances of Parallels running IE, plus assorted other apps like BBEdit with open docs, Transmit and SequelPro.
God save me if I reboot with all those still open. Not only does it have to load each of them, but then I get a crush of network traffic. This will only affect Safari but other applications can be substituted for the word Safari in the command.
Yeah, same thing happens here. It is so annoying that every time the apps will open automatically after start up. Apple should give us more control over it. It was not enough to uncheck the mentioned checkbox. Every file that I have saved opens when I open TextWrangler.
How do I fix this? Beware: when the Restore Windows feature is disabled in the System Preferences, any document closed without saving manually will lose data. Gone is the auto-prompt asking whether or not the user wants to save the document. Any work done on a word processor since the last save, for example, will be lost if the app is quit. Not on mine. Just tried this with Excel and it prompted me to save. Maybe different programs work differently. Thanks for the tip. This was driving me completely insane.
Well, not exactly MUCH longer. For an idea of scale, Windows had single-click app switching for nearly six years longer than Mac OS, which was relying on drop-down menus and keyboard shortcuts to switch apps.
I restart the computer while these applications are running. Does that matter? Do I actually have to close the applications to keep this from happening. There are many things I do not like about Lion. Now you […]. Thank you, this was driving me mad. Apple has seriously lost the plot on this one. I wonder how this is playing with Time Machine : does is save the state of all my applications every hour, then every day, then every week?
Seems pretty useless to me…. And, if you try, we will frustrate you. Eternal punishment for the unbelievers. Why are you automatically opening everything back up.
I quit for a reason. Additionally, you can delete individual apps saved […]. Is there a way to completely disables resume? When I restart my Mac all apps which were running when I turned it off are launched again. Can be quite annoying. When I launch TextEdit again, viola! This was also driving me crazy!!! This, autosave and versions are all security liabilities. Apple has lost the plot with this OS; it goes against all good data and responsible file mgmt techniques.
As pointed out in an earlier comment, this does not disable the default check-box when you shut down, something I would like to do. Kids are working on computers from when they first go to school — even before that. I built a one bit computer in This resume feature is a real pain. This novice discussion is a red herring. Disable it — this stops apps in Lion from opening their previous windows […].
Is there a way to turn this off completely? Thank god you posted this tip. Thank you! Yes, no works for me, I was Transfer my We want it now Apple. Give it to us. The whole point of a reboot is to clean up RAM and get rid of rogue processes. Having everything re-launch automatically defeats the whole purpose of the reboot. On the flip side I think restoring docs and windows is a good feature for most apps.
As mentioned by Peter, it would be nice if the feature could be disabled on a per application basis instead of system wide. In any app hold option command Q this will tell that particular app to relaunch saving state that one time.
Also disabling this, does not disable the feature if you reboot your Mac, the checkbox to restore is checked by default. The clean reboot is a great way to start the new day. My mac resembles an untidy desktop after a day of opening what seems like every app on the system.
Nice to have a clean start the next day. Although I agree that Resume and App restore may useful to some, one of the first things I looked for after installing the developer release of Lion was how to disable it. I had to remember to close each image window and still the last one open would pop up for each scan — a real nuisance.
Same problem with TextWrangler and TextEdit. I see how this may be useful to some, but in my circumstance it is nothing but an irritation. When I close a document, I would like it to stay closed until I choose to open it again.
Technically, when you close a document in an app, it stays closed until you open that doc again. Closing a document, then closing the app will not reopen the document when you open the app again. I also agree. This feature can be very useful but it needs some tweaking, and the user needs more control over it. I regularly have a lot of apps open with a lot of windows, and the startup time is painful when I forget to quit all those apps. For instance, if I close an image in Photoshop, then immediately reboot, that image reopens.
This should never have been released without giving us more control. So really all its doing, at lest in my case, is re-opening the programs that I had open. What use is that? Lion only knows which apps was open and it is up to the app itself to restore resume the files. This is not true at all. Apps will normally open the last open file.
Which is quite annoying. For example, text edit. Instead of opening a blank page it opens the last open text file….. This and when I open Word and Excel, it reopens the last thing I had opened instead of a fresh document.
Similarly in Safari 5. Thanks for sharing, and Emil below, I now feel more comfortable that I am not the problem! But I hope developers will react soon because this seems a major oversight. I compliantly agree. I just downloaded os x lion and i regret it very much.
I wish I could to my old version. Then rebuilt your computer from scratch a. Reinstall all applications b. Re-install all data from backup. I run most recent version of OS Lion a macbook pro.
I despise this feature. I have to close 10 out of date files even when I start a new workbook. I have tried every thing ever suggested and no effect. I am forever closing files before I start anything in Office. This feature was just annoying until I tried to start up a new virtualization of Windows on Parallels. That is the reason why I will never use this feature again without more control…. Other than the lousy search feature, this is my least favorite Mac feature.
I find it completely annoying. Maybe instead of being a prick you could try it for a week? Name required. Mail will not be published required. All Rights Reserved.
