[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1590745, member: 38864"] Why mess with a 3rd party app when a Terminal command will do the trick? StartNinja doesn't work with iMacs (according to the [URL="http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/41692/startninja"]product page[/URL] on MacUpdate). For the Macs it does work with, it installs a helper tool that drops the volume down as the Mac is shutting down, then brings the volume back up when logged back in. It's a rather clumsy way of handling this and adds an unnecessary burden on the system (however trivial it may be) by having an ever present helper running in the background. [/QUOTE]
