Try unticking visible at launch in the window property inspector in interface builder. This will stop the window from appearing automatically. Then order the window on screen when you want it to be shown.

thanks its done from awakeFromNib .
i am automatically start my application using LoginWindow whenever Mac machine is on or whenever any user logged in.

at this time if i place some alert message in awakeFromNib than app is display otherwise its run in hidden mode,i want to detect the automatically start position to avoid this alert message.

Code: 
[[NSAlert alertWithMessageText:@"Alert Message"
			defaultButton:@"OK" alternateButton:nil otherButton:nil
			informativeTextWithFormat:@"Alert Message"] runModal];

and please also tell me how can i identify the app is show or hide from other class that is derived from NSObject.
