How do I set a preference for opening one of multiple email accounts first?

I have multiple email accounts and prefer to open one of them first when I open the email app. After setup of all my email accounts the app is opening one of the accounts that is not my preference even though I setup my preferred account as the default. I've deleted all accounts and started over thinking that the order of the setup made a difference but it has not helped.
In particular I want an Exchange email account to open first and this account is not sync'ed with iTunes.
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thank you,

The only way that you can do something even close to what you are trying to do is to back out of whatever you are in while using the mail app in order to get back to the main mail window that shows all of your inboxes and all of the different email accounts under the accounts heading. Then you could choose to use the Exchange account first from there.
You would have to do this every single time that you are done with mail and it isn't exactly what you are looking to do and it's hardly worth the time anyway.

How do I set my preferences to open most recent catalog?

I'm running LR 4.1 with ACR 7.1 on a Windows 7 64 bit OS.
I set my preferences to open most recent catalog.
I then open another catalog and do some stuff in the catalog but when I start LR next time it keeps going back to a different catalog. How can I change the settings so it either opens the most recent catalog or I get prompted for which catalog I'd like to open (I've tried both settings) and LR still keeps opening the same catalog.

In the same dialog that your screenshot shows select as per this screen shot:
Your setting should open the catalog you most recently worked with. If you work on catalog A, then open catalog B, with your settings Lr will open with catalog B the next time.

How do I set Premiere preferences for all users - University lab machine?

I am setting up an editing suite for our University which has a "per machine" Creative Cloud licence. It is a PC installation. This machine will be used by a class of students who will log in with their own credentials. I need to set the preferences for Premiere (video output, workspace layout, default drives etc) so that it will be the same for all users logging in since we want a consistent setup for teaching purposes and dont want to have to help each student set up so that it shows correctly on the monitors. Is there a way of saving this setting as the default for every user?
The most important one is the preferences - Playback in order to set up the second monitor.

Save one set of preferences for home, one for office?

When I take my MBP to the office, I have a different monitor and a different mouse, so I change the Mouse (tracking speed) preferences and Display (resolutions) preferences every time I go to the office, and then change them back when I get home.
Is there some way I can save one entire set of Preferences for the Office, and one for Home, and then switch between them with just one click?
Also, is there some way the MBP can recognize when a different monitor is plugged in and always go to the preferred resolution for that monitor?

I'm not sure of whether these applications handle everything you want to control by location, but you might check the suggestion in the second message of this thread:

How do I set Mail to only download one-month old emails?

Hello there
I have been a Mac user since 2008 but I have never actually used the default Mail client. I always used third-party applications but since most applications on Yosemite perform really well, I decided to give Mail a shot. The only problem I am facing right now is finding a setting to have Mail only download one-month old emails rather than the whole inbox? I have three accounts (Two on GMAIL and one on Hotmail) and of course they contain thousands and thousands of emails and it will take a very, very long time to download all of them since my internet is pretty slow (2MB), so I was wondering if that option is available? It'd be fantastic. It's available on Android and iOS AFAIK so I assumed maybe it's an option on Mac too?
Thank you for your time.

If you have gmail (Google Mail), one idea is to "label" all the mail you want to in the gmail web interface and then just download mail with a certain label. Take a look at the article at http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/2013/12/download-copy-of-your-gmail-and-google.htm l
Does that help?

How do I set up preferences of opening up garage band?

Hi guys...every project I start I want to have it "time" mode, have the "loops" on the right side of the screen not on, and "lock automation curves to regions" checked. I realize this is a simple 4 to 5 clicks, but was wondering if I can say, "everytime I create a new project, open it like THIS."
thanks,

== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

Setting software preference for file types

Hi all
Can someone please tell me how you set a preference for different file types? For example, I want all .avi files to play using VLC player and not Quicktime. However, my computer automatically wants to use Quicktime. How do I change this? I have looked in Preferences and couldn't see an option.
Thanks
Steven

Select an .avi file via the Finder and use Get Info for the file.
At Open With, select the VCL player and below "use this application to open all documents like this", select Change All.

How do I set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2, and keep that system of numbered lists saved?

I have tried to set numbered lists for headings in Pages 5.2 but have not succeeded. I have read similar questions concerning this but this has not helped me...
When I say numbered lists I mean something extremely important and simple, for instance:
1. Introduction
1.1. Background
1.2. Purpose and Questions
2. The Legality of Clause X
2.1. Legality under Article 101.1
2.2. Legality under Article 101.3
And so on...
Heading 1. is selected as "Heading", 1.1 is selected as "Heading 2", and if I had 1.1.1 it would be selected as "Heading 3" and so on...
I have navigated my way to the Format window, and under the tab "Style" and down to "Bullets & Lists". I have here selected the following: Numbered, Numbers, 1. 2. 3. 4., Tiered Numbers, Continue from previous.
There are several problems with this currently.
First, based on the example it becomes "2. Background" when it should be "1.1 Background" instead.
Second, after writing some body text between the headings and then select a new heading, all the previously selected settings I mentioned above in "Bullets & Lists" have to be reselected.
So, how do I set numbered lists for headings, or so called sub-headings, in Pages 5.2? And how do I keep that selected system of numbered lists saved so I don't have to retype it for every new heading I type? (e.g. so that Pages knows that every time I choose Heading 2, I want it to number the heading in the way selected)
Obviously, manually writing the numbers for every heading is not a viable option, as it makes table of contents problematic and is simply tedious. You need an automatic way of doing it, especially if you write long documents where keeping headings in order is absolutely essential.
Also, reverting back to previous Pages versions (like v. 9 I think?) is not an option as that does not exist on my recently purchased Macbook Pro.
I need to be able to do this on Pages 5.2 and do it automatically.
I appreciate any help with this.

iWork '09 is not "outdated" it still works and works extremely well and whilst not perfect with MsWord it is far far better than Pages 5.2 which has a stream of major issues with exporting. It is also way better and faster to use than Microsoft Office.
So what is your time and work actually worth? If it is less than $19.99 for 6 months, you may as well just chuck it in and take that job on minimum wages.
You are assuming things for Office 2014 with absolutely no inside knowledge. Much as we assumed Pages 5 was going to be the long awaited improvement, but ended up being a downgrade to match the iOS version, Microsoft is headed the same way with their mobile versions.
This is not like getting the "latest" pair of pants where you go with the crowd and throw out your cigarette legs which replaced the flares, which replaced your low cuts which replaced your cigarette legs, which replaced…
This is work.
If it does the job and does it well, use it. There is nothing out there to really match what Pages '09 does. Yet.
LibreOffice can do most but not all, but has a UI that only a mother could love. It's great redemption is that it uses both open formats and the standard Microsoft formats and is under active development. It also opens and saves to just about everything. When they finally work out the Pages formats, I'm sure they will open those as well.
I use a lot of professional software. Just because the publisher's marketing department says change the product so we can sell more, doesn't mean you have to pay any attention whatsoever. Adobe being a classical example. Most designers are just ignoring their latest subscription based bloatware and getting on with their work.

How can I set a book to open full-page?

I can't track the information I'm looking for, so I need to ask:
How can I set a book to open full-page and not with the graphic table-of-contents? I'd like to lead in with a video (when the book is first launched), and have the video hand off to the copyright page, full page, not where the reader has to pick it from the graphical table of contents.
Many thanks for your help!

I'm a frequent user of the Reminders app but I want to set a reminder that will automatically open another app.
Maybe I should make a suggestion to apple to include it in the next iOS update.

Saving a Pages document: when I first save a pages document it saves and I don't know where it goes or what its name is. I want to be asked every time I save a pages document what to name it and where to save it. How do I set this preference?

I'll guess that you've used a page layout document & pasting created a text box. You can add more pages & create linked text boxes, but I think you'd be better of using a word processing document. In word processing documents there is a basic text layer & additional pages will be created as needed to fit the text. Take a look at the toolbar of your document. If it says "sections" for the +page icon it's a word processing document, if it says "pages" it's a page layout document.
