Disable Accessibility Setup Assistant?

I am using the Adobe Customization Wizard utility to create a transform file to then install Adobe Reader 11.0.0.x via a group policy. Upon first running the Reader after installing with the transform file the Accessibility Setup Assistant dialogue box appears. Is there a way to either disable this or preset the accessibility options to take the recommended settings and skip the setup process using the customization wizard?

Posted too soon, I found it.
It's under the Advanced option in the Bluetooth menu in system preferences.

Accessibility Setup Assistant ruined the displayed text ?

I am using adobe reader 9.2. Today, out of the blue, a window popped up - Accessibility Setup Assistant. I opted for recommended settings.
Now all the text displayed is such bad... don't have words for it. See for yourself in the image below :
The text in the left pane is perfect while the right side is something which hurts the eye. I dont know why this is happening ? And why did I get that Accessibility Setup Assistant ? It was something I did not had to care about and reader displayed fine text.
Anybody knows whats happening please ?

After setting up a new user on my Air, can I still access Setup Assistant to transfer files from my old Mac?

Only after setting up my user account on my new Air do I find out about Setup Assistant vs Migration Assistant. Since, I have tried Migration Assistant - via wireless - twice, to no avail. Both computers (new Mac and old) just stay busy looking for another computer on my network. All I really want to do is move/copy everything from my old Mac to the new Air. Suggestions? Miracles? Thanks!

You can do it wirelessly, but that will take some time... you could also purchase a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter or a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter. That would certainly be faster. You should be able to purchase either adapter at your local Apple Store or at the online Apple Store.
Good luck,

Can I disable "Setup Assistant" at start up?

I have a new computer, and transferred all my iTunes data manually to the new computer. For some reason, whenever I start up iTunes, I get the "setup assistant." I hit "cancel," and my iTunes library starts up as it should. In other words, all my data is in place. I am afraid to go through the setup assistant, because I'm worried it will add duplicates of all my music, and I'll have to go to a lot of effort to clean it all up. Can I disable the setup assistant? How?

AFAIK, there is no setting to disable it.

How do I disable Setup Assistant in Accessibility?

How do I disable Setup Assistant in Accessibility? It has completely ruined the look of the page.

Sandy,
I've viewed the link you posted, but that method does not seem to apply to my particular phone. Please consider the version numbers of my phone which I posted above. When I view the Options for Backup Assistant - cancelling my subscription or uninstalling is not an option. The only available Backup Assistant options are:
* Set Schedule
* View Mobile #
* Change PIN
* Help
* About
I suspect this is because Backup Assistant was pre-installed on my phone when I received it.
As a preemptive strike to what I'm guessing you will suggest next, I do not believe performing a "Restore Phone" (a.k.a. Factory Reset) on my phone will allow me to uninstall Backup Assistant either. I believe I saw a post where another LG Cosmos 3 user had tried this, and Backup Assistant was there even after the Restore Phone.
Regardless, I like your enthusiasm. I agree, let's fix this!
Thanks,
Gary

Access for assistive devices is disabled number -25211

Guys, my checkbox is checked, but my AppleScript still returns this error:
error "System Events got an error: Access for assistive devices is disabled." number -25211
How to fix it? Thanks!

It sounds like you were running a second display in extended desktop mode.
If the adapter and/or cable for the second monitor is still attached, it can fool the Mac into believing the second monitor is still present. Detaching that cable/adaptr and then restarting should fix it.
You can also try going to System Preferences > Monitors and change the setup from extended mode to mirror mode.

Help! I am trying to get at my iPod (2nd Gen) from a new computer. I have iTunes loaded but the Setup Assistant doesn't come up to allow me to access my iPod Shuffle. When first using iPod, the Setup Assistant comes up but not 2nd setup?? Thx.

Please help! I am trying to get at my iPod (2nd_Generation) from a new computer. I have iTunes loaded but the Setup Assistant doesn't come up to allow me to access my iPod Shuffle. When using iPod in the 1st computer (which I no longer have), the iTunes Setup Assistant comes up but not on this 2nd setup on a new computer? The manual doesn't clarify how to do this. Thanks.

Stuck in setup assistant, can't create account or access desktop

I am a new Mac user who received a used 2011 MacBook Air MC966LLA as a gift.
When I first booted it up, I received a login screen. Not having the credentials, I booted in Single User mode to bypass the login screen.
Now when I boot up (using the power button only), I get the Setup Assistant. What mode am I using now?
However, I cannot set up an account. Every time I try to set up an account and press continue, I am returned to the initial Setup Assistant screen.
I don't know if my problem is related to the Setup Assistant infinite loop bug, or if it is something else. I've tried all the weird keystroke workarounds I've been able to find in the various tech forums, but so far no luck. The Safe Mode workaround option doesn't work either, as no login screen ever appears. Just the Setup Assistant initial screen.
Any ideas what to try next? For a variety of reasons, I can't ask the giver for advice.

Ick.
Can you start from the Recovery HD?
If so, use Disk Utility there to erase the internal HD (indented, under the main line, probably named "Macintosh HD." See #2 in Using Disk Utility if you're not sure how to do that. It only takes a few moments.
Quit Disk Utility and use the Reinstall Mac OS X option to download (4+ GB) and install a fresh copy of OSX. When your Mac starts up after that, you'll be in Setup Assistant, just as if you'd bought it new, so you can select your language, create your user account, etc.

AirPort Setup Assistant says my Airport Card is "not configured"

I'm trying to install an AirPort Express Base Station that I got for xmas.
I'm using a MacBook Pro 17" with OS X 10.5.1, and my goal with the AirPort Express is to plug it into a stereo to play iTunes wirelessly.
By the way I use AirPort on my MacBook every day, all the time, for internet access through another base station which is plugged into the internet.
Okay, so when I launch the AirPort Setup Assistant and hit the continue button it immediately tells me "AirPort card not configured. In order to use the AirPort Setup Assitant your AirPort card must be enabled and AirPort needs to be turned on and set to use DHCP. Click OK if you would like to change these settings, or Skip if you would like to configure AirPort Base Stations using ethernet."
After I click OK it tells me:
"AirPort card error. There was an error communicating with your AirPort card. Please make sure it is installed properly and try the AirPort Setup Assistant again."
Obviously my AirPort card is working fine, or I wouldn't be able to post on this forum!
When I open Network Preferences I see AirPort is connected to my home network. In the Advanced Settings, on the TCP/IP tab I see that "Configure IPv4" is set to "Using DHCP". And "Configure IPv6" is set to "Automatically" (Not that I have any idea what these two things mean!)
Maybe someone on this forum is much smarter than me with this stuff? Ack!

That solved it! Thank you very much.
Apple, if you're listening, it would be nice if something in the install flow had checked with my OS or something to see if I still needed to install what was on the CD. All I did was open the package (which was purchased in December) and follow directions, and wound up with a problem not covered in the documentation.
Thanks to Tesserax I'm still a happy customer.

Can I re-run the Server Setup Assistant?

I have a G5 tower with OS X Leopard Server installed. I made some rookie mistakes (such as not setting up DNS) during the initial Server Setup Assistant wizard so I would like to give it a try again. However, I already have a lot of files on the server that I don't want to lose. In the past, I have had to reinstall the server software but when I did, it only wants to do an erase and install. There is no opportunity to archive and install so I can save my data and just redo the server setup.
Further reasons to do this are tonight I discovered that all of my users were gone, including the admin user. I searched the threads and found that I could login as username "Local Administrator" with the password of the previous admin account. I then tried to use the Workgroup manager to add all the users back. I can at least now let the clients log in and access the AFP shared folder that is stored there but I'm getting a log of strange errors with other things. For example, on a fresh client, I used to be able to fire up Directory Utility and have the client automatically configure a few things to work with the server such as Time Machine. Unfortunately, now when I try this I get an error.
Therefore, if someone can tell me if there is a way to blow out the existing server configuration and redo it from scratch, please enlighten me.

Makes sense, although you're in a tough spot. While I can appreciate the notion of an inexpensive server, I'd hesitate to use a mini still. Even with an old G5, you can find eSATA options for RAID devices, or at the very least, install two HD's that you can easily access. One option you always want with a reliable server is to be able to replace HD's and copy from a backup in case of a HD crash. The expansion ports on a tower are also pretty important for a server when it comes to expansion, adding RAID's, and exploring other backup/redundancy options.
Even when we purchase Windows servers, we still buy a box in the 3-5K range. There is certainly a niche for mini servers, but just make sure it will fit your needs and you have a good backup strategy.

Where do I find setup assistant in Mavericks?

I did a clean istall with Mavericks and now time machine doesn't access any time prior to install. Possibly setup assistant will access this but I can't find it to launch it.
Mid 2011 iMac 27"
8GB Ram
OS X 10.9
external iomega HD 1 terabyte for Time Machine

Most likely, some folders were inadvertently excluded from your backups, and as a result you can't restore your data in Recovery, Setup Assistant, or Migration Assistant.
Starting from a fresh installation of OS X, set up a new administrator account and log in. Enter Time Machine and press the key combination shift-command-C. The front window will show all mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible.* Select the one you want and navigate to your home folder (in the Users folder at the top level of the old startup volume.)
You should now be able to restore your user data. I suggest you do this in two stages. Quit all applications except the Finder before you begin.
Restore all the visible items at the top level of your home folder.
Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. Enter Time Machine and restore all items in the Library folder. Log out and log back in as soon as the restore is complete.
Any other invisible folders or files at the top level of your home folder that you want to preserve will have to be restored separately. For most users, that isn't necessary.
You'll have to reinstall all third-party applications from scratch, or restore them from another kind of backup, if you have one.
You'll have another problem if this is a new computer, or if you erased the startup volume: The next time you back up, Time Machine won't recognize any files as being the same as they were before, and will make a full copy of all files. There might not be enough space on one or more of your backup volumes for that. There are different ways of dealing with that situation, depending on your needs. The easiest way is to set your backup drives aside, if possible, until you're sure you'll no longer need the data on them, then erase them and start over. Meanwhile start a new backup on one or more empty storage devices. If that solution isn't workable for you, ask for instructions.
*If you don't see any snapshots in Time Machine, exit the time-travel view and then hold down the option key while selecting
Browse Other Backup Disks...
from the Time Machine menu, which has an icon that looks like a clock running backwards. Select the backups of your computer by its previous name. If you don't have the Time Machine menu, open the Time Machine preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked
Show Time Machine in menu bar

Leopard taken hostage by Setup Assistant

leopard has been running great (except for a lot of app crashes), but as of last night, every time i try to log in the setup assistant starts. if i complete the registration process, it logs me out, but when i log in again, setup assistant takes over. "about this mac" and "restart" and "system preferences" and every other menu item fails to do anything. my machine is literally disabled by the setup assistant right now. suggestions? the way the machine has been rendered useless, it feels like a virus or malware or something has corrupted the system. i have no idea why this would happen--the mac did lock up during a software update (my mac loves to freeze up hard every now and then for no reason at all).

thanks. i think i was having more severe problems because i couldn't even get into safe mode. i suspect i had some bad memory (has since been removed, although it's still too soon to tell) which was causing random freezes. it happened during a software update, the recent one for itunes and quicktime. i decided to reinstall os x and restore using my time machine volume, and it worked impressively well. with a couple of hours, all my data was there, all my programs just worked (no more spending hours re-installing adobe software), and 99% of my mac and app settings were carried over, so it's basically like nothing happened. the only glitch was that time machine doesn't have an option to resume from a previous time machine volume--that is, when i noticed it wasn't backing up due to insufficient space, i didn't know what else to do but erase it and start over. i suppose that's one way to protect your data--explicitly forcing a manual erase, in case i wanted to use that volume to restore a duplicate onto another machine? or place it in cold storage; however, i wouldn't've minded the option to carry on uninterrupted. still, i'd call it a very successful practice test of time machine. going forward i feel a lot less concerned about losing all my files knowing i can be up and running again in a couple of hours right where i left off. i remember with windows i'd spend an entire weekend reinstalling the os, apps, coping files, entering serials, downloading drivers, etc. i'm sure there are plenty of backup programs on the market, such as retrospect, but this simplicity and integration speaks to just how mature os x has become.

Can't get past setup assistant after installing leopard...

i am having trouble getting past the setup assistant after installing leopard on my other computer which is a 1.25 ghz G4 desktop. Everything seems to be going fine then the setup assistant comes up and i go through the exercise of filling it out and at the end it says click on done and then you can use the computer. unfortunately it goes right back into the setup assistant like i had never gone there before. it is in some kind of loop. would it be wise to reinstall leopard? if so, does it know that it was installed already and rewrite over the first install? or is there something else i may try. i tried resetting the PRAM and some other things recommended but nothing seems to work. any help will be appreciated.
thanks in advance...

mr_magicman,
I can imagine how frustrating this must be for you. It sounds like you went for the (default) Upgrade option.
Okay, how about trying this:
1. With the *OS X 10.5 Install Disk 1* still in the bay, Restart your computer. Without access to menus, you'll have to use the power switch to turn it off. +[Alternatively, if you do have access to menus, select the Restart command (in the Apple menu) — always the preferred method.]+
2. If you're using the power switch method, here, wait about 10 - 15 seconds then depress the power switch again for about 5 full seconds (or until you hear the computer come back to life). +[Alternatively, if you had selected the Restart command in Step 1, the computer will start up again on its own.]+ *Either way, as the computer starts up, press and keep pressing, the Mouse until the disk ejects.* By the way, if you're using a Mighty Mouse with a left and right option, press down on the left side only. Hopefully this will get you out of the loop caused by your Install DVD remaining in the drive.
Finally, to be fair to you, I must tell you that there's a more suitable Forum for your particular kind of problem, viz., *Installation and Setup* (http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1219) I recommend you check out the questions/answers in that Forum in case your question has already been asked and answered.
PS. If you do re-post your question in that Forum, don't forget to mention whether or not you internal hard disk has been backed up.
GOOD LUCK!
