How to deactivate the Most Recently Used List in Adobe Reader?

Hello,
how can I deactivate the "feature" of last used file list.
In our firm it is not alowd to see which document was used last time on a computer/login.
A sheduled erase at the registry is not a functional way to deal with the problem.
s. Peter

You can't COMPLETELY remove it, but you can reduce it to one (1) item. Under Preferences>Documents
1 is the minimum and 10 is the maximum. Hard coded, no way to expand or reduce these limits.
The ONLY other option is to disable the "welcome screen" altogether under Preferences>General

  • How often does the Most Recently Used list get saved?

    Has anyone ever done the analysis to see what triggers the SAVE of the MRU list to table PS_PT_PORTAL_MRU?
    I'm about to do this tracing work and wanted to see if anyone else had before I start.
    Graham

    Graham,
    I haven't done a trace, but I would infer from the description in the "Using PeopleSoft Applications" Peoplebook--Using the Recently Used Menu--that the changes are saved when a users logs out. If they close the browser without logging out or the session times out, then the changes aren't saved. It also says that entries are added to the list when you leave a component, but they are probably cached somewhere--probably in memory but maybe in a cookie, or a temp table.
    I'll be interested to see what your trace uncovers!
    Regards,
    Bob
    EDIT - I did a quick test, and I don't see the behavior described in PeopleBooks. I saw changes in the MRU table without logging out, and they didn't get rolled back. Maybe there was a patch that changed the original behavior.

  • How to have a longer recent view list for adobes reader app?

    Since the recent abode reader update the recently view tab have been gone and is replace with a menu at the left hand side of the screen.  I don't really mind the change but what is bugging me is the extremely short list of recently view files. I can only see max of 5 files and I is starting to get really annoying having to constantly search for my files again. I open a lot of files and like to go back and forth between them and it really hard to do that with such a short recently view list.
    So long story short is there a way to make the recent view list longer. So I can see more then 5 files in the list?
    Thanks.

    Tell Apple you'd like to see this:

  • Clicking the Stamp tool doesn't select the most recently used stamp - Acrobat X

    My issue is pretty much what the title says. Clicking the Stamp tool doesn't select the most recently used stamp. According to the Help screens and training videos, it should. I've checked Edit > Prefernces and could not find a setting that adjusted this behavior of the Stamp tool. Does anyone know what can be done to fix this? BTW - It's not just my installation of Acrobat X. Other users at my firm are having the same issue. The OS is Windows 7. Users have administrator rights. Thanks in advance.

    Hello Abhilasha,
    So, what your saying is that this function, the ability to select the most recently used stamp by clicking the stamp tool, has been removed, in spite of the fact that Acrobat's Help pages says it can be done (Using Acrobat X Standard > Collaboration > Commenting > Apply a Stamp > Step 1 > Second bullet). I wish they would put it back. It was quite handy.
    Perhaps I should adjust my request. Do you (or anyone else) know of a way to use the same stamp several times in a row without having to choose the stamp from the stamps list? For example, if you needed to put a check-mark stamp in several places in a document, it would be a pain to have to go back to the list each time. Is there perhaps an undocumented feature (maybe holding down a particular key while using the stamp) that would allow for multiple stamping?
    Thank you,
    Phillip

    I need to know how to delete the most recent version of Firefox. I JUST downloaded it tonight and my computer doesn't have that little edit bar to work with so I can download the proper Adobe player and my internet has been screwed up ever since I downloaded the new version of Firefox. I just want the old version of it back since I apparently can't download the Adobe stuff that is necessary to keep my computer safe from Hackers. It sure would have been nice to know there was an issue with the new Firefox Update BEFORE I uploaded it. I have Vista which is usually an issue with both Adobe and Firefox. I don't seem to be able to run much of Adobe at all on my computer because of the Vista.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    I have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.

  • How to update the most recent Adobe Flash Player on Mavericks?

    Does anyone know how to update the most recent Adobe Flash Player on Mavericks?  I have downloaded and tried to install it but failed to install.  It says "Install Adobe Flash Player" can't be opened because it was not downloaded from the Mac App Store.

  • Opening external links in the most recently used page

    I'm having an issue where external links from Mail or elsewhere are always opening up in the oldest page, IE, the page that was opened first, rather than the most recently used page.
    Normally, this isn't that big of a deal, except when the oldest page is minimized, and every time I open a new link, Safari open up that minimized page to load in a new tab.
    Is there any way I can fix this?
    Thanks!

  • How to get the Most RECENTLY installed JRE path and version ?

    Hello Experts,
    I am working on Installshield, and for some purpose, I need to get the MOST RECENTLY installed JRE version and Path. Now I have two choices :
    1. Go into the directory " C:\Program Files\Java\" and get the most recently changed directory, ( that will be the installation directory of the most recently installed JRE ). And then search in the registry under : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/JavaSoft/Java Runtime Environment/ and look for the version which is having
    the value of the key INSTALLDIR as the above found Installation Directory.
    But in this approach, I'll never find the Installation dir or version, if the JRE is installed somewhere else than the default location.
    2. Now this is the reverse. I first search in the registry, and get the Installation Directories of all the versions installed in the system, and then look at the file attributes ( may be by using some batch file ) and see which one is most recently installed.
    My question is, is there any other way, by which I can get the most recently installed JRE's installation Path and version? Or can we trace it during the installation itself ? I mean when we install the JRE, it creates some log files in %TEMP% directory. Is it possible to trace the version and installation directory of the most recently installed JRE from the log file ?
    Thanks

    Rendering times are pretty much based on processor speed if I have that right. Not much you can do about that other than buy a new computer. Your day to day work in the finder and accessing of files would be faster with your boot drive internal. One thing you can do is ensure your FCP System Settings are on the fastest disk you have. If you put a pair of drives internal and made a RAID volume for them you would improve your write speed when capturing and for any other read/write operations. You would have to be sure you kept that backed up properly because you double the odds of a failure when two drives spread the data between them. There are many RAID options.
    You could also bump up the RAM but you'd have to look at your processes to see if you are being limited by RAM. I'm guessing not but it's not impossible. If you are accessing scratch disks due to RAM limitations that would be one thing you could do.
    I would never bother connecting an external via USB if there was an esata or firewire option. I use an esata card internally to give me access to estata storage. I also keep an external FW800 drive for a mirror backup of my boot drive. All my data and booting is internal with all my backups external. Each internal has an external and I have additional externals that I keep off site to protect against fire and theft.

  • How to select the most recent date in a CR XI subreport

    Post Author: rickcf
    CA Forum: General
    I have a sub report and it is simply a reporting of a sub table.  It is a table that has multiple records with many dates coupled with types.  I only want the most current date for certain types - the types can have more than one date.  Much like the following select statement
    select type, max(date) from table where type <> 'E' group by type.
    How can I accomplish this in crystal? 
    Thanks

    Post Author: Jagan

    Group on type. Use record selection formula for type <> E, use group selection formula for the max date. e.g. group formula is{table.date} = maximum({table.date, table.type})

  • I have the most updated version (plugin) of Adobe Reader (10.0.1) but the plug-in checker is telling my version is outdated. What do I need to do so the plug in checker will stop warning me?

    I have restarted my computer, and have re-download the updated version of the adobe acrobat and the plug in.

    That doesn't help. Sorry but I am talking about the the Adobe READER PLUG-IN . The MOST updated version is : 10.0.1. There is no 10.0.3 . There is a version of adobe acrobat that is 10.0.3 but it is for Adobe acrobat PRO only- which I do not have.
    The most updated version of the acrobat reader plug is in : 10.0.1 unless there is another place to download a more updated version than that- which I cant find.
    Or there is a problem wiht the plug in checker by Mozilla Firefox.

  • How to include the option for people to download adobe reader in an email campaign?

    We need to attach some terms & conditions as a PDF in our mails (sending to a few thousand people), but would like to include an option to download adobe reader to read the PDF if they haven't already got one.
    Is this a simple 'link to download page' or is there a widget/code or something that already exists for this? Just to make it quick & simple for email readers
    Many thanks in advance!

  • How to add the "comment and markup toolbar" in adobe reader 9

    Hi there, I've been trying to add the comment and markup toolbar in acrobat reader 9 but I simply cannot do it. I've tried both the Tools and View menus but I cannot add this particular toolbar. Does anyone know the reason? What can I do to get this toolbar? Even when in a pdf document commenting is not allowed, Should'nt I be able at least to see the toolbar unavailable?
    Many thanks,
    Enrique

    Impossible, and illogical. PDF files are not streamed or RAM-cached so if someone is viewing a file they must have already saved it.

  • How do I edit the Screen Sharing 'Most Recently Used' files list ?

    I have recently added a mac mini to the network at home, and will be using this as a headless device. I am connecting remotely (using screen sharing) which works well. I have set the Sceeen Sharing icon to remain permanently visible on the dock, ad by right clicking, I get a list of the most recently used shares.
    The trouble is, that some of theses shares no longer exist, and tghere is also some duplication.
    I would like to edit this list, but cannot find out how to do it.
    Can anyone help please ?
    Thanks
    Geoff
    PS - The same principle applies to a number of other programs that retaim n MRU lst on their dock icon - how can these be edited.

    This doesn't apply to me anymore.

  • Most recently used documents

    How do I delete the MRU files within StarOffice 6.0? Is there a way to configure the program so that a file's location and file is not displayed under the "Files" menu?

    Hi
    The history of loaded URLs (ie the most recently used documents) are saved in the file "Common.xml". This file can be found in the directory:
    " \StarOffice6.0\user\config\registry\instance\org\openoffice\ Office\ "
    To delete these entries, load the file in a text editor and find the "<History>" entry. Delete all lines in the file up to the entry "</History>" (i.e., all entries between "<History>" and "</History>").
    This will also delete all entries in the URL history as well as all entries in the picklist (the list of the most recently used files found in the File menu).
    Important:
    This procedure involves manual intervention to the configuration of StarOffice. It can occur that if the wrong entries are deleted, StarOffice will no longer be able to function correctly. Please remember that all manual intervention to the configuration files is the sole responsibility of the user. In this particular case, any mishaps that may result to the program cannot be supported or guaranteed.
    If the above does not work, please let us know. Thanks!

  • Most recently used apps?

    On the iPad (I don't know about the iPod Touch or iPhone), when you double click on the Home button you get a list of the "most recently used apps".
    When an app appears in this list, how much memory is it taking up if it is not the current app?
    Is it in the list to speed resumption of the app when you want it?
    Is certain program data holding the last state, or is it simply a list for my convenience?
    I have pressed & held until the icon "jiggles" and then pressed the '-' to remove it from the list.
    When returning to the app, it is in the same condition I left it.

    I found that link right after I posted. The few sentences I quote still leave me assuming a few things.
    Quote from link:
    When a user leaves an app, it’s put into the suspended state instead of closing it. The apps are held in memory and their process kept alive, but are given no CPU time. You can think of them as cryogenically frozen, they still exist and are alive, but can’t do anything until defrosted....
    The answers I assume:
    1) If they're in the list, they're being held in memory, but IOS will purge the oldest if needed.
    2) If an app is in memory then load time is 0.
    3) --mute--
    4) If the app retains its status of course it will come back where I left it; only a little bit sooner if it was in the list.
    I think I've got it. Thanks.
