How do I stop it from defaulting to open everything with Acrobat Pro?

Perhaps unwisely, I did a 30-day trial for Pro, and now that it's over, every PDF I open brings a screen asking me to buy Pro. I just want the document to open in Reader- I'm not going to buy the Pro. Is there some default I don't know of? Any other tips to make my life easier?
Thanks!

Hi Kevin ,
You can right click on that PDF and select open with " Adobe Reader".
This will open the PDF in Adobe Reader.
I believe Acrobat must have been set as your default PDF viewer and that is the reason you are facing challenges while viewing a PDF.
Follow the above steps .I am sure that will help.
Moreover,Adobe reader is a free software from Adobe .If you don't have it installed in your system ,you may get it from the web.Here is the link for the same.

How do you stop apps from running on the IPad with the new ios7? I have an app for animation that pops up a message to stop other apps from running. If I press onto a app and it starts shaking there are no -, just x's.

Close inactive apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
3. The app will fly off the screen

How does Adobe ExportPDF differ from the export feature in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0?

How does Adobe ExportPDF differ from the export feature in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0?

ExportPDF is based on a newer conversion engine than the one found in Acrobat 9.0. They're similar in some respects, but ExportPDF is more advanced.

Multiple keyboard layouts... how do I stop it from defaulting to QWERTY?

I've been working on teaching myself the Dvorak layout. I've even re-arranged the keys on my laptop (which is partly because I LOVE to see people who can't touch-type struggle >:)
Unfortunately... the OS seems DETERMINED to use the QWERTY layout. Every time I switch apps, it goes back to qwerty as default... and I see no option anywhere to stop this. I could probably remove qwerty layout from the menu... but as I'm learning, this isn't exactly an option. And it's something that should be changeable.
Is there a way to stop this defaulting behavior, so if I set it to a different layout it'll STAY that way? I'm also working with a few Japanese sets, and it has the same irritating habit, so I can't quickly switch between apps.
If it remembered what setting that application had, I'd be even happier... but again, I can't find anything to effect this in the least.

Look, dude, if you've already thought of this, too, then spare me the sarcasm, ignore it and continue waiting for something better to come along.
But, since no one's been able to help you so far, notwithstanding your pleasant and welcoming demeanor, have you tried the following:
Select both Dvorak and Qwerty (and whatever else you want) from the input sources in System Preferences > International > Input menu.
Then click on the Keyboard Shortcuts button, which will take you to the Keyboard Shortcuts section of the Keyboard & Mouse pane.
Click the black triangle next to "input menu," check the boxes next to "select previous input source" and "select next input source in input menu," and set up easy to remember short cuts for switching back and forth between keyboard layouts. (If you see a yellow triangle next to the shortcuts, you'll have to change the default shortcut to something not already used by an application.)
Now, before you unload another barrel of sarcasm and urge me to read your post again, please know that I fully realize the foregoing workaround does not do exactly what you want to do, i.e., stop your keyboard from defaulting to Qwerty when you switch applications.
But, what it does let you do is, when you switch apps. and your keyboard defaults back to Qwerty, then you can easily, with a keystroke or two, switch back the your preferred method of input without having to go to System Preferences and check and uncheck boxes.
That's the best I've got on this one. If you don't like it for any reason -- such as the keystroke or two being too much work for you -- or for no reason at all for that matter, don't bother letting me know. If you do like it and it works for you, well that's great and that's why I posted.
Good luck.

How can I restore data from my iPhone after sync with macbook pro?

I accidentally syncronized my Iphone with MacBook Pro on iTunes and lost all data from my phone (calendar, contacts, photos, etc.). Is there a way to recover that information? Thank you!

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You cannot. However, you can solve this problem by setting the iPhone as a new device and upgrading iOS in Settings -> Software Update.
After upgrading iOS, open Settings -> General -> Reset -> Erase All Content and Settings. Finally, Setup Assistant will let you restore the backup.

How do I change standard programs (f.i. opening PDF with acrobat instead of preview)

I tried it with : "open with" and there it asked if id like to open it with that particular program next time. But then PDF again was opened with the original program
thanks

In the finder select the file and right click on the file and select "Get Info" from the drop down menu. In the files Info window that open, there will be several triangle with a title next to it (ie. General: , More Info: , Name & Extension: and then Open with: . If under the Open with title is just the next title "Preview", click the triangle to the left of Open with: so you see a drop down menu you can click on to see a list of application that can open that file. Select the program you want to use to open the file (if it's not in the list select "Other..." and locate the program in your Applications folder. Then click the "Change All.." button under the drop down menu in the "Open with:"

How do I stop iTunes from defaulting back to library C:\USERS folder

My iTunes library is stored in a NAS network drive. Everytime I lose connection to the LAN, iTunes always tries to be smart and default back to my C:\USERS\USERNAME\iTunes ... folder.
Is there anyway to stop this behaviour. It is annoying to find out that iTunes has been copied all my new music files to my local drive until my local drive get filled up.

I've had the same problem. The solution of not losing contact with the LAN is not an option for me. I have almost 400G of music. I keep it on my Time Capsule but my primary computer is my MacBook.
Surely I should be able to open iTunes when I'm not within range of the Time Capsule with my iTunes music folder not defaulting back to the iTunes folder on my Mac HD? There must be a way to prevent the default?
Sometimes I want to buy music from the iTunes store while I'm at work or import CDs I've purchased while on vacation. Will my iTunes music folder always default back to the Mac HD? Every time I have to change it back it takes me almost 45 minutes to reset it.

How can I stop ipod from defaulting on "on this ipod" page instead of "settings" in itunes?

Itunes 11 has causedl problems with my shuffle:
1) when I plug it in, the screen defaults on the "Settings"page instead of the "on this ipod" page. This is a hassle to have to click away from settings every time I plug it in
2) Also, when I try to erase songs from the ipod, I have to highlight them twice (for some reason the first highlight and delete does not work
). Obviously some kind of bug.
I have other complaints that now you can no longer search for podcasts by date. This update is really several steps back for usability.

I actually use Autofill, but I just tried it to check if what you described happens. It did not.
Are you already on the iTunes window. If you are using another window, you have to click once to put focus on the iTunes window, and click a second time to select the item on the list. But that's probably not what you are describing.
You're not using a "right" click for the first click... Then, you have to do a "left" click to get out ot the contextual menu.
In another program, such as in Mail's email list window (using the Classic layout), does the same thing happen?

TS1969 What if I want iTunes to run from the other user's account, but I want to work in my account for a while, without interupting what is playing? When I switch to my account, how can I STOP iTunes FROM TRYING TO OPEN on my side?

We like listening to music playing from wife's user account.
I want to do some work from my account.
I don't want iTunes to open on my user account.
It keeps trying to, giving me the alert beep and the "Cannot Open iTunes" alert.
How do I make it stop trying to automatically open on one account when it is already playing on the other account?
Again, I want to keep listening to what is playing through my wife's account, therefore I don't want it to open or try to open on my account.
Thanks for any guidance.

Thanks. I messed up with my husbands iphone because I was told the wrong thing. Now everytime I sync his phone it makes it look just like the other phone I had. Do you know how I can fix taht for his phone? Any settings I can turn off that will prevent all of my apps/contacts, etc from auto populating his phone?

How do I stop Google from attempting to sync contacts with my iMac?

Hey folks, i'm new to Mac and keep getting this annoying sync notice that if I allow Google Contants to sync it will change pretty much all my contacts. First off, I'm not really sure what contacts it's trying to sync with. Is it trying to sync with my iCloud contacts? i don't think i have any contact info saved on my hard disk. Second, i have searched the discussion threads about this topic and see posts saying i need to go to Address Book > Preferences > and uncheck Google Sync....but the only Address Book i am aware of is the app labeled "Contacts" which holds everything from my iCloud account. Is Address Book a separate app/database?

I don't know if this helps much, but Address Book was basically the same application in a previous version of the Mac OS. Folks still seem to use the terms interchangably though. Similarly, Calendar used to be "iCal."
I believe syncing contacts with Google or iCloud is an either/or proposition - you can't do both. When you sync with either, a copy is saved to your Mac for faster access (like a web browser's cache). I believe there's still an option to save contacts exclusively to your Mac (HD), but I don't think it's either preferred or occurs by default if you have an account such as Gmail/google or iCloud already set up.
I've never played with preferences in Contacts (Address Book), but I do have both google and iCloud accounts associated with my Mac. Under System Preferences:Mail, Contacts & Calendars, you can specify what accounts do on your Mac. If you have multiple accounts set up, a list will appear on the left side. As you select each one, a list of check boxes appear to the right for each service you want to associate with that account. For example, I have an iCloud account for mail, calendars, contacts, and Safari (among others). I have a Gmail account for mail, although it gives me the option of using this account for calendars, etc. For Gmail, the only item I have checked is mail. It's never asked me if I wanted to sync my addresses with Google.
I hope this helps... at least a little. If nothing else, I hope I've solved the "Address Book" mystery ;-)

How do you stop iMac from wanting authentication for everything you do.

Every file I try to put on the drive or move from folder to folder or even trash. I get the authentication window. Its very annoying. I've looked at security in system preferences but it doesn't say anything about it.
Help

It would be normal to get this in certain circumstances if you are running standard and not as admin. Are you saying you are prompted to authenticate for everything, including even items within your home folder?
Open Terminal in Utilities and enter ls -la then leave a space, drag in your home folder and hit return. Please post the output.
Or just go ahead and reset your home folder permissions and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't then post the output from that Terminal command.

How can I stop it from trying to open a window I don't recognize?

I had a virus attack last week. With the help of McAfee, everything seems to be cleaned up.
EXCEPT, Firefox keeps trying to open a new window with an unknown web address.

A possible cause is security software (firewall, anti-virus software) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
