Connections Start Up Window

[huntress]

How do I configure ACT! so that the Connections window is not displayed when ACT! is open.  This window offers various options such as Sage Business Info Services, Sage E-Marketing, Act Act Connect, Google Integration, and Outlook Synchronization. 

I did look under Preferences, but could not find an option under Startup.

Thank you!

Tools | Preferences | Startup Tab | Startup View

Depending on the ACT! version you have, you'll have number of different options

Thank you for your help, but the Startup tab does not have a startup view option other than contacts, contact list, welcome, dashboard.  I have it set to Contacts.  There is no mention of the connections option to de-checked.  Please advise.

Welcome should be that view ... where else are you getting it?

Thanks, again!  I'm not seeing that window anywhere else...just when I open up ACT!,  It appears over the Contacts view.

The last time I installed ACT!, I didn't have this issue.

Hmmm ... what tab is open at the bottom?
What version/build of ACT! from Help | About?

I apologize for the delay....

When ACT! opens, the Connections button on the left-hand portion of the screen is depressed.  This choice is under Welcome and precedes Contacts, Groups, Companies, etc.

We're running Premium Web 2012 Version 14.1.108.0.

The first time I installed this product, I don't remember having this problem or even seeing the Connections option.

Many thanks!

Thank you for your quick response.  I actually had to call tech support who dechecked an option under setup regarding opening each view in a different window which apparently corrected the issue.
