Eliminate Nag Screens PSE 8.0

Am running a registered installation of Photoshop Elements 8.0.  Each time I launch the program I get two "Nag Screens" which I want to eliminate.
     (1) A screen that offers me the opportunity to buy more online storage space.  Unless I quickly click on "Cancel" I get stuck in that screen and there is no apparent way out of it except to exit the entire program or, I suppose, buy more online storage space.  I do not want to use the online storage feature, in fact I want to delete the files stored there already.  How do I permanently eliminate this nag screen?
     (2)  A "New Users" screen that offers me a tour of features opens up always.  There is no apparent way to close the screen and I am stuck with it.  How do I keep that screen from automatically opening each time?  Certainly, tutorials are welcome but I prefer to go there intentionally.
     Thanks for any help.  Ed

  • Adobe Nag Screen, Version 7.1.3 Professional, Even with Enterprise License

    For Acrobat version 7.1.3, using an enterprise license, adobe displays a large dialog box over the content asking me to register on line, every time we start it. Even to just read a PDF. Our IT folks have tried to call or email Adobe to provide the key, etc, but they say Adobe will not allow registrations for this version. We have tried just entering the key by following the path started by the Adobe nag screen, but it says the key on the enterprise licence is now invalid. How can we get rid of the nag screen, register, something, to use the product? Thanks

    Agree that this does not make sense. The license key is perfectly valid. 100% on that. I was standing with one of the IT folks when they called Adobe read the key from the box, to find out why we couldn't register anymore. The response was that this is an old version that Adobe is not supporting, so it will not register online and they could not register over the phone, either. Still makes no sense. If Adobe will not register it because it is an old version, then why require the nag screen? I had been using a this version before until a couple months ago when my agency switched to Vista. This was meerly a reinstall. Previously, my copy did not have to be regisrtered by me. it appeared to have either happened automatically or by one of the IT folks doing it online.

  • How do I get the registration nag screen to go away permanently?

    I purchased Acrobat Pro 7 while an employee, and now that I'm retired, I have neither the money nor need to upgrade. However, I did get a W8 machine, and when I tried to install Acrobat, I needed a new link, which I received from Adobe. I downloaded and installed that software. I must have activated it, though I don't remember. The software works.
    But every time I start it, it asks me to register. I don't know how to do that with this replacement product, nor do I know how to make that nag screen disappear permanently?
    The chat support person said that I'd get the answer here.

    Find Acrobat.exe on your computer.  Right click the program and click 'Troubleshoot Compatibility'.  Set the compatibility to Windows XP service pack 3.  At least that seems to have worked for me.
    To help you find Acrobat.exe, you may want to download the Everything Search Engine.  A neat little program that searches your computer quickly for files by name even in hidden folders.  Available from www.voidtools.com.

  • Link Target, Code Snips and Nag-Screens?

    I shelled out the cash to buy a copy of iLife '06 so I could get iWeb.
    I quickly found that it was missing the ability to specify targets in links, this is an incredibly basic feature that iWeb is strangely missing. Without it iWeb sites aren't frame-friendly and worse you can't have links load in new windows. For the purposes of a blog, the majority of links will be to external sites and the only work-around I've found is editing the html file (wait didn't I buy iWeb so i wouldn't have to do that?). While this works, as soon as i re-publish my site my edits need to be redone.
    Also, there is no way to edit the html or add snips that are useful for inserting widget-like items to your page, banner-ads, etc.
    Lastly, I'm slowly being driven insane by the nag-screen prompting me to buy a .mac account, not just during install or during the creation of a new site but every time I open iWeb.
    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE someone tell me that I've just missed where to specify the link target (a feature iWeb or any web creation tool is useless without), that there is a way to add code, and that I don't have to be assaulted by a nag-screen every time I use my software.

    No, you've not missed anything.
    iWeb does not allow you to specify target of link. Yes, it's a major omission of a basic function. We don't want everyone to navigate away from our sites, but that's what they'll do...
    iWeb does not allow you to paste in snippets of HTML. It must be done after publishing.
    iWeb does not allow you to bypass the buy .mac screen. No, I tell a lie. You can get round it by going to the .mac preference pane in System Prefs and entering a dummy name and password, and then allowing iWeb to try and authenticate it when it next opens. Once it's tried once (of course unsuccessfully), iWeb doesn't prompt you any more to buy .mac.
    Hope that helps.

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro X NAG SCREEN won't go away

    I have legitmate licenses for this software, installed with the license key and all is well but the "register your software" nag screen comes up every single time the software is launched. My users don't want to get email from Adobe, they don't want mailings and they DON'T WANT TO REGISTER. Is there any way short of giving away all of your personal information to get this nag screen to go stop coming up?
    -Chris

    I always register and you do not have to get junk mail from Adobe. However, company should want to have the software registered in its name. If you have problems with the software and/or need to get the licenses at a later time, this will put the license number into Adobe's database which your company can retrieve at a later time. I might suggest your company provide the users with a name and/or email address your company would like to use:
    User Name: Your Company IT Department, [email protected]
    I do believe eventually the software will either stop asking you to register or ask you if you want not to register. But I cannot be sure since I register all my software.

  • Turn off this nag screen?? "Some text layers contain fonts that are missing"

    Hi all, I have recently been handed a web project from a mac user and everytime I open one of the pages I get the following message. "Some text layers contain fonts that are missing...etc" I have the same exact fonts but in the new open type format. Anyways apparently photoshop can't tell that. I would like to TURN OFF this nag screen. I am not even editing the text layer with the font.
    Is there anyway to turn off this nag screen? I turned off glyph protection in the prefrences and restarted photoshop to no avail.

    The missing fonts will be listed in grayed out color in the separate last section at the bottom of the font menu accessible from the text tool's property or the character panel
    The layers with missing fonts will have the warning sign on the layer's icon in the layer's panel however the missing font/s will be displayed with the correct font. When you try to edit the text on such layer, Photoshop will show a message with the missing font/s and will say that it will be converted if you edit it. If you choose OK, and you have different fonts on the same layer, watch which fonts will change appearance.

  • How to eliminate confirm screen popup

    when i click back arrow, i get a confirm screen. (to resend)
    how to eliminate confirm screen popup every time?

    You get an alert about resending POST data if you go back to a page that was previously requested from the server by submitting form data via a POST form.
    The only way that Firefox can make sure to get the same page is by resending that POST form.
    Firefox doesn't know what that form data means, so Firefox asks for confirmation before resending that form data as such an action can cause you to repeat an action and buy another item or post a message another time.
    The only way to prevent that pop-up is not to use the Back button, but to open links from a page that was requested from a server by sending a POST form in a new tab (window) with a middle-click or a Ctrl + left-click.
    Then you can close that tab or window to go back.

  • How Do I Get Rid of a Nag Screen in Maverick ?

    In the upper right corner of my desktop there is a “Nag Screen” about installing updates.  I do not want to install the updates for some time.  My only choices are, in an hour, tonight, tomorrow.
    This reminds me of Windows!  How do I get rid of this so I can install the updates later without the annoying, constant, unnecessary reminders ?

    I believe you can open the App Store, then secondary click (control-click, right click, or two-finger tap) in a white space on that update and choose "Hide Update".
    I don't have any pending updates at the moment but that's what I recall.

  • I am reviewing Acrobat X and keeping getting nag screen in trial

    Is it normal behaviour for the Trial nag screen to show every time I open a document just to read it?
    I would expect this behaviour if I only had a few days left, but this is the first day.
    It is leaving me with a bad impression of the whole program, especially as I have to fight my way through just finding where everything is due to some software designer figuring he knows where it is, and so should I.
    Just as an add on, when each version of Microsft comes out it gets harder and harder to find anything, and it seems this is the same direction Adobe is taking. The sheer stupidity of alienating your users, even someone that is quite computer literate, is beyond me. Change can be good and even inovative, but it seems most design is now just based on making it sleek and beautiful - give me an ugly program clutted with simple easy to find access to the features I want everytime!!.
    But after my rant, I just want to find out if this Nag screen is normal behaviour.
    Thanks

    I understand but from day 30??
    It replaced my acrobat reader, and as I deal with PDFs nearly every hour..... Its no longer polite.
    Anyway although a pain, I am kind of used to it now, but still something for your designers to think about. Think 10 days if not 5
    I also apologise for my rant. Another post by me found out that X is not actually what I thought, and so the things I was trying to find werent there anyway.
    Thank you for your answer.

  • How to disable nag screens about updating to Firefox 24

    I would like to know how to disable the endless nag screens inviting me to update to Firefox 24.
    I do not want Firefox 24 because I tried it for two weeks and it was repeatedly crashing - several times in each day - or simply freezing. I cannot work this way and so I have downgraded to a previous version of Firefox and I have not had a single problem in a whole month.
    Please be aware that I do not allow Norton products on my computer so that is not an issue.
    I keep a very clean computer - scanning EVERY night before shutdown with CCleaner and JetClean with Avast running permanently in the background. I also scan weekly with Superantispyware.

    Note that using any version older than 24 has security risks, I would update and then try to post crash reports using the instructions below.
    First update Firefox
    * [[Update Firefox to the latest version]]
    '''Then once as Firefox crashes 5 times and you have submitted the crashes to mozilla, using the [[Mozilla Crash Reporter]].''' Place crash ID's to this site to find how the problem can be fixed.
    #Enter ''about:crashes'' in the address bar (that's where you enter your website URL) and press Enter. You should now see a list of submitted crash reports.<br><br>[[Image:aboutcrashes.png|width=520]]
    #Copy the '''5''' most recent crash ID's that you see in the crash report window and paste them into your response here.
    More information and further troubleshooting steps can be found in the [[Firefox crashes]] article.

  • How to disable the geotag NAG screen.

    1. Is there a way to either to (ENABLE/DISABLE) geo-tagging permanently.
    2. If YES, is there a way to disable the NAG question when taking pictures.

    Hi,
    In case you want to disable the screen elemnts/fields when one clicks on 'DISPLAY' then you have to do the following:
    This should be written in PBO (Process before output).
      LOOP AT SCREEN.
        IF screen-group1 = 'DIS'.
          screen-input = '0'.
          MODIFY SCREEN .
        ENDIF.
      ENDLOOP.
    This will disable the fields you want on your screen.
    the fields that you want to disable should be put into a group say 'DIS'(screen-group1 as seen above) in SCREEN PAINTER.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Rashmi.

  • How to eliminate login screen

    I would like to just open my laptop and start using it without having to loging everytime I open it if it's still running.
    I have it started up, but I'll close it during the day, not turn it off just close the machine. But everytime I open it, it prompts me to log in. I get that I should log in the first time I start it up, but if it's just sleeping and I need to wake it up, I don't like to log in again.
    So yeah, how does one eliminate the login screen?
    Thank you.

    Thank you guys. I actually did both and both helped. macjack's answer allowed the stuff to still run in the background, but I still had to log in, whereas CT's eliminated the login screen altogether.
    Thank you for the help.

  • How to eliminate split screen after browser restore?

    FF 29.0.1 running on OSX 10.8. From time to time, starting FF (after killing it) and restoring all sessions, results in each tabbed window displayed in a split screen. The upper portion is is about 4" high, followed by a seam, then the actual site. Resizing can completely eliminate the useful portion - unable to shrink beyond the seam.
    Opening a new tab results in a split screen; opening a new window displays normally.
    The problem only occurs after restoring tabs - never when FF is closed normally.
    Suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Hi nxtr, your Safe Mode test strongly suggests that one of your extensions is creating the gap.
    If you haven't recently checked for extension updates, you can do that from the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Command+Shift+a
    * "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, above the list, click the "gear" button and Check for Updates.
    If they are already up-to-date, you could try selectively disabling the nonessential ones. Hopefully the problem is caused by one of those.
