Startup - how can I prevent specific applications to open?

For some reason, Spotify opens automatically whenever I start.  Don't know how to stop this from happening?  It's annoying to close it everytime I open the computer.

It's probably something very simple, but I'm new to OS.  Thank you.

See the list of the login in the pane items accounts or users and groups to the system preferences and if you get a prompt to stop asking you if you want to reopen the windows when you connect, clear this option.

  • How to prevent an application from opening at random to different workstations?

    OSX El Capitan 10.11.3, MacBookPro retina

    Hi Apple Commuity,

    How do you prevent a request to open randomly to different workstations?  I always liked having my my offices are as follows:

    1 office 1: iTunes and Photos

    2 office 2: Calendar and Mail

    3. office 3: Safari

    4. desktop 4, 5, 6...  any application you want.

    However, whenever I make the jobs like that, in time, they randomly switch desktop computers somewhere else.  It is infuriating.

    At first I though that it was because it was causing views/random background image, so I have disabled this feature and each office opens with a picture of El Capitan.  Workstations still randomly mix themselves and I'm always looking for where my apps will show up next.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!

  • How can I prevent the Thunderbird goes directly to the next message after you delete that I read?

    How can I prevent the Thunderbird goes directly to the next message after you delete that I read? I want to return to the list of all incoming mail, so I can choose what email I open then. I could see something that I don't want to open at all, but the way it is set up right now, it opens the following email automatically.

    Thank you. I don't want to download an add-on, so I tried the messages pane, and I guess it will do. I used Thunderbird a few years ago and he used to have an option where it would go after deleting a message during the consultation in its own window. But I think I can live with this option. so thank you once again.

    I do not have thunderbird to automatically download my emails from my server. I want to manually click to receive email. How can I prevent automatic download?
