About the Welcome screen

When you open flash by default your greeted with the welcome screen, right? Ok. Question is how do I erase the "open recent item" list? I don't want to see anything there. Is there a cache setting I can reset or erase to do this?

There is nothing in the preferences that will allow me to erase the recently opened documents history.....I think you misread my question or maybe I wasn't clear enough.
I want to erase the HISTORY flash is saving for each open document, so instead of me seeing the recently opened docs I want to see nothing under that category.....Don't get me wrong I DO want to see the welcome screen but I want to be able to see it as if I just installed it....NO recent doc history.

  • Stop installing Tiger before the Welcome screen appears

    I would like to give my Mac away as a gift to a newbie and consider it nice to give him a Mac that feels like being delivered from the factory.
    This means: I would like him to see the welcome screen first (the one where all the Welcomes in hundred different languages appear immediately after you power up your Mac for the first time ever).
    Unfortunately, after following the usual process of starting from recovery disk, erasing the Hard Drive and installing the OS it starts this screen automatically. I do not see a way to stop it or make sure that it appears again upon next power up of the Mac. On the contrary: You must enter your personal settings immediately.
    I read something about this years ago and think I remember it was a UNIX-Code which had to be entered. But even if so: Where can I enter? I cannot open Terminal in this stage?
    Power Mac G5 2x 2.0   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   Casual User, but my first Mac is still here: The 128k from 1985

    @Steve:
    The good news: I do not have to be ashamed of myself.
    The bad news: No, you cannot go up to Setup Assistent menu bar.
    After the installing process is finished the Mac runs into the described "Welcome" windows and asks for registration and setup of an administrator account. There is absolutely nothing you can do to avoid that. There is no menu bar, no button, no nothing.
    All the good advices here and elsewhere are talking of entering commands or starting in single-user mode or other, but you simply cannot go into anything. Even the keyboard shortcuts (cmd-alt-esc, etc.) do not work.
    I have found a workaround which I really hesitated to use but it obviously works: During the floating around of the "Welcome" logos I pushed the On-Off switch for 8 seconds thereby killing the Mac. After a restart it starts exactly with the "Welcome" window and asks for registration. But this is really not a nice way to treat a Mac.
    Thank you anyway.

    Ever since I updated InDesign CC (2014) approximately 22 days ago... I CANNOT get the welcome screen to not come on at the launch on InDesign. I set the preferences in InDesign to NOT show the welcome screen upon launch, but it will NOT hold the preferences i choose. Anyone else have any other ideas? I am about to lose my mind... I hate you ADOBE!!!

    that s just the problem, that is why my level of frustration is boiling over ... I have told InDesign over and over again "Do Not Show Again" but it will just not hold the settings. It might hold it for a day or so, but then suddenly there it is again on another launch. Very very annoying.

  • On booting W7 will not now go past the Welcome screen until I disconnect my network drive...

    Since the latest W7 updates on 14th Jan my Dell Studio XPS will only boot if I disconnect my network HD first. Otherwise it just hangs at about one third of the way into the welcome screen W7 booting process.
    Is there any fix for this?

    Hi,
    It may waste a lot of time for initializing network while booting into desktop.
    So, please check Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon
    policy setting and disable it under Computer Configuration\ Administrative Templates \ System\Logon
    To capture a boot trace, install the
    WPT , open command prompt with admin rights and run this command:
    xbootmgr -trace boot -traceflags base+latency+dispatcher -stackwalk profile+cswitch+readythread -notraceflagsinfilename -postbootdelay 10

  • The welcome screen keeps making me take the tour each time I open

    I just downloaded PSE 8 three times now (it kept hanging crashing).  Turne
    d off auto analyzer and that seemed to work.  Now everytime i open PSE, i am forced to take the tour on the welcome screen.  VERY annoying.  Any help??

    Bob - once i got past the welcome screen everything would work for about 2 minutes and then it would freeze (very disappointing).  I read that the auto-analyzer would cause this so i turned it off, and everthing seems fine now.
    I also read that there is a workaround the welcome screen (which is a terrible concept).  So i created a short-cut to the organizer, and then start Priemer or PS from Organizer.  Works great this way, and actually makes more sense to do it this way.
    Please let me know when they fix the issue with auto-analyzer.
    Thanks.

  • I've an iPone4GS. I downloaded the latest upgrage onto it. IT HAS STUCKED ON THE WELCOME SCREEN. IT ASKS MY password belongs to My Apple ID

    Hi,
    I would very much appreciate some practical advice. I've an  iPhone 4S for about 2 years now., I did the software upgrade as usual. Now after I downloaded the latest (8.0.2 I assume) onto my phone it stacked on the welcome screen. It lets me enter the password belongs to my Apple ID THEN IT TAKES ME BACK TO THE VERY BEGINNING TO THE WELCOME SCREEN. This is all what I can do on my phone. It's a nightmare. Please help. Thank you.

    Did you try to remove it from the  "Find my iPhone" list, so that the Activation lock is turned off and you can set it up again?

  • I recently did a restore to factory settings on my 2009 macbook and now im stuck on the welcome screen where u choose the country my trackpad allows me to move the arrow around but when i tap continue to choose it does nothing. someone please help

    I recently restored my 2009 macbook to factory settings and now its stuck on the welcome screen where u choose your country. My trackpad allows me to move the arrow around but when I tap on it to select continue it does nothing at all. The only thing else it will allow me to do is go thru the voice over tutorial by pressing escape. Please help me fix this I need to use my computer.

    Hi, teezbreezy64.
    I found a couple of resources to help troubleshoot the issue you are experiencing. The first is this article named Intel-based Mac notebooks: Troubleshooting unresponsive trackpad issues found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1248.
    Try disconnecting the MagSafe connector from the computer and check the trackpad function. If the trackpad becomes responsive again, improper grounding may be the issue.
    If a two-prong AC plug is being used with the power adapter, try using the three-prong power cable that shipped with your computer and plug it into a grounded outlet.
    If the issue persists, make sure the third prong is present and do not use an adapter to enable the three-prong adapter to be used in a two-prong outlet. Note that the ground in the three-prong outlet may not be connected. This is common in older homes or buildings with replaced outlets. In these situations, the three-prong power cable will not improve trackpad responsiveness.
    If a grounded outlet is not available, rest your palm on the palm rest when using the trackpad. This should enable the trackpad to function properly.
    If that does not resolve the issue then I recommend resetting the SMC on your computer. Here is an article on how to do that:

  • How do I disable the welcome screen in iCloud

    This may seem like a simple question but every time I attempt to access my iCloud account, I get the Welcome screen asking me if I want to activate Find Your device (whatever device I'm using) and if I want to activate Find my Friends (NO) etc.  Half the time I don't even know what the correct address is for iPad and get all kinds of other websites and I just give up.  Now I'm in a CRITICAL SITUATION in which I've gotten a Time Machine message that my WD Drive is no longer backing up and must be reformatted immediatly  - YIKES!  As you all can see I am very frustrated - I am still in the process of restoring data I lost from a hard drive failure in JUNE 2011 LOL How do I disable the Welcome screen in iCloud?  What exactly is the correct web address?  Sounds like a question for Watson.  I know others have had a similar problem with WD external drives; can I recover enough data to get me back up and running?  All my Time Machine back ups are on that drive. Awhile ago I bought Carbon Copy; it is apparently not functioning as it should (again back up on that drive) because I did the upgrade prior to getting the data off the WD drive, it installed a Trial Carbon Copy and is now asking me to reinstall what is sees as new software thus the last disc image is "lost.  HELP PLEASE

    Where are you trying to access your iCloud account, and from what device?
    If you are trying to access your iCloud account at http://www.icloud.com/ from an iOS device, you can't. The iCloud.com website is not designed to be accessed from iOS devices - access it on your Mac.
    Your Time Machine and WD external backups and Carbon Copy backups are nothing to do with iCloud, so I don't know what you think accessing iCloud will achieve in your situation anyay.

  • Photoshop Elements 11 Organiser does not start from the welcome screen

    Having installed Photoshop Elements 11(Windows 7)  I cannot open the Organiser from the welcome screen. It can be opened via the Editor but few of the thumbnails are shown as pictures rather as empty squares. The situation does not improve with time but tends to get worse with pictures turning into squares. I have tried the tip with preferences but to no avail. I would be very grateful for some help. Best Regards Ian Tomlinson

    Try pressing Ctrl+A (to select all thumbnails) and then refresh again (Edit >> Update Thumbnails for selected items). If that makes no difference you may need to regenerate the cache.
    It may be worth rebuilding the thumbnail cache before re-installing. Click the menu:
    Help >> System info to find the path to your catalog.
    1. Close Organizer.
    2. Navigate to C: ProgramData/Adobe/Elements Organizer/Catalogs/My Catalog
    3. Find the file - thumb.5.cache
    4. Highlight the file and delete it.
    5. Re-start Elements Organizer
    6. Wait until all thumbnails have been generated.

  • Satellite L500 will not load past the 'welcome' screen

    Hi,
    My Toshiba Satellite L500 laptop will not load past the 'welcome' screen. The cursor thing just keeps going around and around but won't go to my desktop.
    Last night it went into some temporary profile and it had a message saying 'your other profile cannot load at this time please try again later'
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    The error message is not known to me and also searching in google didnt get any hints.
    Possibly your Windows OS is muddled up.
    Did you try to boot Win 7 in safe mode?
    Try this. Restart your notebook, tap the F8 key.
    In advanced boot options choose the option called Safe Mode.
    If the notebook does not allow booting in Safe Mode, try the option Last Good Known Configuration.
    If this didnt help, try Repair my Computer. Here you can choose between different settings.
    The one which could solve this is HDD recovery which helps you to set the notebook to factory settings. But this means also that your HDD would be formatted!
    So be aware of this!
