I cannot find the Start-up Applications in 14.04, I read on a forum that you had to go into Main Menu and allow it to be visible through preferences, but I have looked all the way through preferences and I still haven't found it????

Thanks

Easiest method is to search for "start" in dash:

It is also possible to start it from command line, the command is gnome-session-properties:

  • @mchid mine still shows it when searching. Are you sure you are using Ubuntu with Unity?

    It is possible that dash does not show it because of localization. You can always launch it from the dash with gnome-session-properties anyway, or try searching for 'startup' in your native language.
