Question

I just installed Adobe Acrobat DC on my iMac desktop.  I opened it and chose a PDF file to open so I could edit it.  When I then chose the edit tab, I was directed to a window to either "purchase" or "7 day free trial".  I just want to utilize the DC app I just bought.  How do I avoid this window and go directly to being able to use the DC app?  Thanks for your help, community!

Yes, it makes a difference. Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader are two different apps. Paying the Acrobat Pro subscription doesn't change the Acrobat Reader app. (Yes, it's confusing. SOME Adobe subscriptions do add extra features to Reader).

Acrobat Reader can't edit PDF files.
