Acrobat X Pro - Getting Started Screen

Now I am currently running the trial version of Acrobat X, but, I did not see a way to turn off the Getting Started Screen. Its nice seeing my previous documents, but if I want to Create a PDF, it opens up my explorer, not a new PDF or a drop down, like Create does in the top left corner. The Create PDF needs to match what Create does, but overall, I would rather have a option to turn this off and work the old fashion way, by going to file, then selecting what I want.

Hi,
Unlike previous version of Acrobat, the Getting Started Screen in Acrobat X is inbuilt and unfortunately cannot be turned off or remove.

Remove "Getting Started" screen in Acrobat Std. X

What is the process of disabling the "Getting Started" screen in Adobe Acrobat Standard Version X?
Unable to locate the "do not show at startup" selection that is available in previous versions of Acrobat.
Very much dislike viewing this "Getting Started" screen when Acrobat is opened.

All you need to do is buy a Mac and get the Mac version of Acrobat.
Seriously though, you cannot prevent it from appearing on Windows. This is a common complaint however, so there's a chance it will be configurable in the future. There's an Acrobat feature request forum here, so you may want to post there for your voice to be more effectively heard.

Pages 2.0 will not get past the "getting started" screen

i just updated pages to 2.0 on ipad 2 retina (ios 7.0.2) and now i cannot open pages, it will not get past the "getting started" screen
has anyone else experienced something similar?

Had the same problem. This sovled it for me:
Just let it load.
In Keynote, I didn't have so many documents, so the freeze didn't take too long- that's how I noticed it's just a freeze while loading.
For pages it took much longer. You can also turn off iCloud in settings for Pages, Keynote, etc. open it, re-enable iCloud in settings app again and quick switch back to pages (double-click home button). It will freeze up again, but after a while after all documents have been pulled from iCloud, it will be back to normal.

Why does Firefox 8 show the getting started screen every time I start it?

Whenever I start Firefox 8 it checks compatibility of my add-ons and then goes straight to the getting Started screen. How do I make it go to my home page instead?

That's weird. It could be that you are currently set to open multiple tabs on start-up. Try restoring to default, by using the "Restore Default" button (under the General tab) and then reenter your Home Page URL.
Here is Firefox Help page on: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How%20to%20set%20the%20home%20page#w_set-what-pages-open-when-firefox-starts How to Set the Home Page] for additional help.

BB Link won't move past 1st "getting started" screen

BB Link installed on Win 7, opens but won't let me past page 1 of "getting Started" screen. The "next" button is inactive. I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice now with same results. Also computer can't find all drivers for my Z10. Any ideas?

Hi Steve,
Do you know if UAC is enabled withing Windows when you connect your device?
If so, try disabling it, then connecting the device again and see if the prompt to install then appears and allows the process to complete.
The following link includes instructions on how to disable it:

Cannot Get Acrobat X Pro to Start

I've istalled Adobe Acrobat X Pro on my Dell Precision T7400 with 20 gigs of ram running the 64 bit version of Windows 7 Ultimate N edition. When I click on the icon to start the program, I get a momentary hourglass icon and then nothing happens. I've updated to version 10.1.3, I believe it is, but the problem has not changed. Thanks for any help that can be offered.

Can't pin Acrobat X Pro to Start menu

My version of Acrobat is 10.1.0, installed in early July. I find that Pin to Start menu is not listed as an option on either the Acrobat X Pro entry or the Acrobat Distiller X entry in the Programs menu.
With my prior version I had Acrobat pinned to the Start menu. It is an available option for other programs including Adobe Photoshop Elements.
The Properties of the Acrobat X Pro entry say Target type = Application, Target location is blank, Target is Acrobat X Pro grayed out, Start in is blank, Shortcut key = None, Run = Normal window, Comment = blank, Find Target and Change Icon are grayed out, the Advanced Properties box says "Choose the advanced properties you want for this shortcut" and both options are grayed out but "Run in separate memory space" is checked.
Added:
I notice that for Elements in the Programs menu, Norton Security is listed in the right-click options, but not for the Acrobat entries.

Dave, since you have been kind enough to try to help, can you tell me how to take advantage of the information that I see above my posting in the Adobe forum? I'm not seing it now as I compose this, but to the right of the dark magenta text that says the question status is still not Answered, there were two icons with notes. One said that there is already 1 correct answer (somewhere in the database I assume) and the other said that there are 2 helpful answers. Neither one of the icons or captions was a live link, so I didn't know what to do with them.
Thanks in advance.

Acrobat 9 Pro has started showing incorrect black areas

My Acrobat 9 Pro (Win 7) has started displaying black areas where normal content should be, The same PDF files display correctly with Adobe Reader. This same
Acrobat worked fine for a long time, but a few months ago began displaying black instead of some content.
Sorry, but I couldn't find a "community" that fit this issue so I put it under Installatiohn & Update. Feel free to change the secton.

Hey,
With the end of support for Acrobat 9, it might not be possible to find updates there.
You can access Acrobat 9 updates for the version 9.5.5. via the following link:
For Windows: "ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win"
Hope this helps.

Acrobat X Pro Register Prompt screen

I deinstalled Acrobat X Pro because I thought the register prompt screen was a glitch, and now I can't re download it. Adobe Application Manager says it's already installed. What do I do?

I think it's the big problem with cloud.I think your only work arround is to use cleaner tool to delete cloud application (This will delete all applications) or to change the language in your prefs ,for exemple if you installed in french you can change your prefs on application manager to canadian french and it will give you the possibility to download it.

Really annoying problem, can't get past 'getting started' screen!

Hi,
Can't get ipod and itunes working for the first time!
Ipod is plugged in and appears in the itunes menu, click on ipod and a screen appears on the right hand side saying something like 'getting started'. The problem is that the type runs over the edge of the window (can't read all the info) and there's no link/tickbox to set up the ipod. Tried widening window but moves about an inch then stops. Is there any way to get things working without this annoying problem?
I'm trying to get this working for a friend and don't know much about Windows as I use a mac (which worked first time with my ipod!).
Any replies appreciated, Steve.
Ipod classic 80 gig/win XP/itunes 7.5

I have the EXACT same problem. I own a first generation iPod nano and I loved it so much that I bought my boyfriend the 3rd generation. I downloaded iTunes for him and everything was going great until I went to register. The screen is doing exactly what you described. You can tell there is something on the right side that needs to be clicked but you can't scroll over there to do it. I'm frustrated because he wanted to sync all his music before we started to travel for the holidays and now we can't! Please let me know if you figure anything out or find out anything. Thank you!!
FYI - I tried to register online to see if that would help but it didn't make a difference. Also, you can still put songs onto your iPod by dragging them into the iPod section but once they are there you can't manipulate them or take them back off.

Can't get past "Get Started" screen

I run the Azure RemoteApp installer on my Windows 7 64-bit machine. It brings up the "Welcome to Azure RemoteApp" window. When I click on "Get Started", a new window flashes up for an instant but is too quick to read anything on it.
After the flash I am still stuck on the original "Welcome to Azure RemoteApp" window. If I click "Get Started" again, same result.

Hi,
1. Do you have at least Internet Explorer 9 installed on this PC? If not please update to a newer IE version, preferably IE11.
2. If you have any Internet Explorer windows open please close all of them, verify there are no iexplore.exe processes listed in task manager, and then test to see if the issue is resolved.
3. Do you have any third-party anti-malware, anti-virus, popup blocker, security software, etc. on this PC? If yes you may want to try disabling them and/or completing uninstalling them, and then test to see if the problem still exists.
4. Are you able to use Azure RemoteApp on a different PC on the same network?
Thanks.

Dvd studio pro- get black screen after build/format

hi all i need help, have made dvds before using dvd studio pro now it wont work.
in simulate the menu buttons and video work perfectly but once i build/format and mount it in toast the menu wont load, i get a black screen. i tried to unisnstall then reinstall and it hasn't helped.?
any thoughts?!
latest version of fcp studio

Replied in the [other thread|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2373333&tstart=0] and see you did have it working before. Have you changed something in the system recently?
Did you remove receipts/packages to make sure the reinstall was done and/or did you delete preferences? Can you burn DVDs from DVD SP still?

Macbook Pro gets blue screen and resets itself?

I have a 15in Macbook Pro, year 2008. I have Snow Leopard on it.
I bought it refurbished online about two months ago however a few times it has done something none of my other Macs have done and I'm getting concerned. I will have it in sleep mode and when I try to wake it it is frozen. Next thing it does it go to a blue screen then it resets Safari and I have to open a new window and tabs.
What is going on? I had two Powerbook G4's and neither ever did this. I would like to know so I can contact where i bought it since it is under warranty still.
Thanks

Thanks!
Do you have a link? I did a search on APPLE and couldn't find it. I could be searching incorrectly but I put "install disc" in the search engine.
It has been doing it more often and the place where I got said we didn't have the warranty so they won't help. My fiancee got this for me and I was on the phone telling him what to click and he added the warranty but it doesn't show on my purchase order so they won't help. To be honest I don't really want to send it to CA for repairs, I'd rather go thru Apple to get it fixed or looked at. IDK what happened with our order because I know he put in for the warranty and a RAM upgrade (which I still want as well as an HD upgrade) that isn't on here either which I just found out a few days ago when I looked at what the RAM was for school. It's not that big of a deal things happen when ordering online and I dont mind buying the discs if I knew where to get them.
My concern is being the motherboard and if that is what the issue is. That term alone sends chills down my spine, I dont have the best luck with them! The only error message I get sometimes is a CPU error and I haven't a clue what that means. I did pay for a 24hr diagnostic on it before we got it, can things or issues show up later on? I don't do anything crazy online like DL. I only stream Netflix and that is about it.
So Im just at a loss as to why this screen is coming up and why it resets my browser and goes to the desktop screen where I have to reopen all windows and tabs.
Anyway, thanks for your reply. I will try to look more for the discs but if you have a link that would help.

Adobe Acrobat X Pro gets corrupted and will not open

After a month or so Adobe acrobat gets corrupted and will not open, so I have to uninstall it and reinstall it again. I am using windows 8 64bit professional version. Even the updates did not solve the problem.

The advantage of the repair if it works is that you don't have to repeat the updates. AA X is currently at 10.1.7. The best way to do the updates is typically from the Help>Updates selection. They can also be downloaded from http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=1&platform=Windows (or MAC equivalent) and installed in order -- most are not cummulative.
