"What's New in Pages" Splash Page

I have the latest version of Pages on my Mac Mini at home and iMac at work. Latest Mac OS X, etc. Both work, but --


At home, every time I start up Pages, I get the "What's New in Pages" Splash Page. It's annoying. At work, the splash page NEVER appears.


I've checked preferences, etc., and can't figure out how to turn the splash page off, or how it is that it is off on the work machine.


Any thoughts?

Hi Steve,


Just guessing, based on a faded memory, but it sounds like you may be launching pages from a disk image containing the installer, rather than from the application installed in your Applications folder.

Try dragging the Pages icon off your Dock and dropping it (It should disappear with a puff of 'smoke').


Now locate Pages in your Applications folder. Double click its icon to launch the application, then go to the Dock, right click (or control-click) on the Pages icon and choose Keep on Dock. The drag the icon to the position where you want it on the Dock, and continue with what you wanted to do.


If the splash page appears during this launch, look for a checkbox, "Don't show this page again" (or similar).


Regards,

Barry
