Ah! I accidently deleted a Dock Icon. How do I get it back?

I just deleted the icon that comes as a default (I guess) and its right next to the trash icon and it starts up the Mac OS X Website. It looks like a little slinky, coil, or spring and its silver. Oh man...I don't know where it went! How can I get it back? I remembered it poofed away.

All that icon was was a shortcut to the Apple OS X page. You can get it back by dragging the favicon (the little picure icon in your browser's address bar) to where you want it to be on the dock.
You can put any URL on your dock like this. I deleted it right away myself, but if you want it back, the page linked to is right HERE.

    I downloaded a audiobook and didn't know it had 2 parts And accidently deleted the first half, how can I get it back?

    Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so unless you copied it over to the Books part of your computer's iTunes library before you deleted it (in which case case you could sync it back to your phone), then you will need to try contacting iTunes Support and see if they will grant you a re-download of it : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    I've never heard of that happening.  Something's clearly wrong... it can't be deleted.
    Shut down the app...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon until they wiggle
    - Press the red to delete the Phone app from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    - Restart the Phone app

  • TS1702 I accidently deleted my IPod app, how can I get it back on my IPad?

    How can I get the Icon back?

    There's no way to delete the included apps (unless your iPad is jailbroken)... so it's on there, we've just got to bring it back to view. A few options:
    Go to the search menu - slide your fingers along the screen to the right, and in the "search iPad" that appears type in "music" (the name of the 'ipod app') or the name of a song that's on your iPad, and see if selecting one of those brings it back.
    Try doing a hard restart of your iPad: hold down the power and home buttons until the screen turns black and the apple icon appears.
    It's also possible you dragged the music icon into a folder. :-)

  • Accidently deleted track numbers. How do i get them back without manually doing it one by one?

    I was going thru my itunes to try and get it all in order. 
    I highlighted an album, get info, checked a few boxes, and i thought all was looking good.
    Then i discovered a heap of songs did not have track numbers.
    I eventually worked out that one of those few boxes i checked was the track number box.
    So now i am missing quite a lot of track numbers.
    Is it possible to to get them back? Or do i need to sit here for days to manually put the track nubers in?
    Please give me good news because its about 20G of music missing track numbers :-(
    Thankyou

    MusicBrainz often isn't that successful, and then there is the problem of getting iTunes to recognize the external update.
    Start with this method to restore your most recent library file that had the correct information.
    Under Edit > Preferences > Advanced turn off the option to Keep iTunes media folder organized.
    In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. iTunes should now have the correct track numbers, but the files won't be where iTunes expects to find them.
    To fix this new problem use my script FindTracks.
    When that is done use iTunes Folder Watch to catch up with any files that have been added or removed since the backup file was created. Any files added at this stage will probably need their track numbers fixing by hand.
    You can now reenable the keep organized option.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

    If you can't get dragging to work, just click on Safari from your Applications folder, and it should appear in the dock. Then you can right-click on the icon and PIN it permanently there.

  • I lost my download icon from my dock. How do I get it back?

    I lost my download icon from my dock. How do I get it back?
    Thanks.

    It was tricky, because one should click on finder itself, not finder preferences, where the download icon is actually movable. So I was able to move the icon down to the dock.
    But now it doesn't have the same view as before. Now it looks like a folder with downloaded files in alphabetical order. Before it was showing the latest downloads in the way the Mac computers only do, the curved way (can't describe it). Anyone knows how to bring that back?

  • I deleted my photo booth how can i get it back?

    i deleted my photo booth how can i get it back?

    OK, here are some step by step instructions:
    1. Open a Finder window.
    2. In the Finder window on the left side you will see a folder that says Applications. Click the folder.
    3. Click the Time Machine icon in your Dock and wait for Time Machine to open.
    4. On the right side of TM  you will see a time line, click a date that you know the Application was still there and wait for TM to go to that date. You will see the date in the bottom center.
    5. While in the Applications folder scroll down until you find Photo Booth and then click Restore in the bottom right.
    At that point Photo Booth should be restored and working. If it isn't then make an appointment at  your local Apple Store and take the machine in. They will help you restore the application. If you don't have an Apple Store in your area contact an AASP or call Apple Care for some help.
