I have 10 images selected, and first one is way I like it. Stumped from there. In the past, I think there was an apply buttom? Now I right click and get goofy copy from soemthing text, and then click, done, nothing happens. Thanks!

With the 10 images on the filmstrip- This is my method:

1) Edit one image and Copy settings [Ctrl+C]

2) [Ctrl+A] to select all on the filmstrip.

3) [Ctrl+V] to Paste settings

Or the three-dot icon [...] provides a menu-

New issue: While I see the changes on my computer to the 10 jpegs I lightened with ACR. If I dropbox them to someone else, those images still look very dark.

You didn't burn the parametric edits into the JPEGs. Nor should you (lots of data loss due to the data being a JPEG but that's another story.)

Click Open and Save, you would see the edits.

Got it Rob, actually now even easier than before I think.. as long as you select all first, and then do an adjustment on any, I think it then applies it to all right away right? And did not do that in years past.

Done: writes the parametric instructions you've made. Dismisses ACR.

Open: Does this but renders the image with those edits.
Note, what images you select when using Open plays a role of course.

Move your cursor over each button (one seen below) for more details.
