Can't add files or file aliases to the dock

I can't add files or file aliases to the dock. All the help viewer says about this is this issue?
"If you can't add icons to your Dock, your administrator may be preventing you from doing so."
I am the administrator of this computer, as it turns out. What is the solution to

Hi Wagnerian, Welcome to Apple Discusswions.
When adding files or folders to the Dock, they must go to the right side of the hairline (the same side that Trash is on).
If this what you are doing and it still doesn't work navigate to /Users/YourHome/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist and delete that file. then log out and back in or restart. (You'll have to reset your Dock the way you like it)

  • How can I add an AVI file to iMovie?

    I have iMovie '11. It won't let me add a .AVI file. If I can't add a .AVI file what is the best FREE software to convert it and what should I convert it to? Thanks!

    I agree with the Streamclip suggestion for two reasons.
    The first is that it is free and works well.
    The second is that Streamclip is so essential that if one doesn't have it on one's computer, one is missing a very fascinating piece of software. Free, converts faster than anything Apple uses, and gives you a little window to see the conversion to make sure everything is going ok.

  • Can I add a favorites file on my I pad

    Can I add a favorites file on my I pad?

    What type of Favorites? 
    In Safari in another browser? 
    On the home screen?
    What exactly is it you want to do?
    You can find the Favorites folder in Safari by tapping the Bookmarks icon and then tapping on Favorites.

  • I can not add a wmv file to the library. It is not protected

    Can not add a video file to Itunes library and even when I try to open the video using "open with Itunes", Itunes start but instead of the video I see the music library

    iTunes cannot play nor convert WMV files. You'll need to use a third-party application to convert the video to a format iTunes can accept.

  • Mavericks won't load file aliases from the dock

    Before I upgraded to Mavericks I had file aliases in the dock that I could easily click to load the file. Now when I click on a file in the dock I get:
    An attempt was made to resolve an Apple Event reference to a non-existent object (MacOS Error code: -1728).
    I tried re-creating the aliases to no avail. Applications load fine.
    Any ideas?

    Okay I figured it out, it was actually only affecting one application, I installed the update for the application and everything works as it did before.

  • Can I add more than one movie to the movie page

    I'd like to put up a gallery of movies  but don't know how to do that.  How can I add more than one movie to the movie template page?
    Thanks,
    Gina

    I use the YouTube widget. It has the advantage of not loading clips until one actually selects the clip. When I started I just dragged the quicktime files to the page...not a good idea as it forced a viewer to wait for all of them to load.
    Miro has some options.

  • HT201401 I can't add a contact or edit contacts the little + sign is no longer on my phone...same thing on my iCalendar.  I can no longer add events or dates.  how do I fix this?

    I can't add a contact or edit contacts the little + sign is no longer on my phone...same thing on my iCalendar.  I can no longer add events or dates.  how do I fix this?

    Reset your phone, hold the home and off button down until the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt fix it then you need to restore your phone in itunes, Connect to itunes, right click on your phones name to the left, then click restore from backup. That providing you have backed up your phone recently.

    Thanks for your quick response. I thought I had tried that but I must not have because it worked perfectly.

  • Can't add supervisor as Primary Supervisor in the "Team Configuration" menu.

    Dear All,
    I can't add supervisor as Primary Supervisor in the Team Configuration menu.
    What is wrong in my configuration?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Bahlul.
    I assumed that user has been imported on UCCX by selecting iccx extension on CUCM which automatically give agent capability to the user.
    If you use "user view" function on UCCX and then assign Supervisor capability to a user, you give him access to supervisor web page.
    To let the user to manage a team as supervisor, you have to define him also as an agent.
    That's the reason why you install both supervisor and agent desktop tool on Supervisor's Pc
    Anyway congrats for finding solution ;)

  • How can I add a dip to white at the beginning of a clip?

    How can I add a dip to white at the beginning of a clip?  I know where to find it on Pr, but I'm new to AE.  I have 2 clips that need to transition one to the other.  The first clip ends by dipping to white; therefore, I need to either dip to white at the beginning of the 2nd clip & line them up so they overlap well, OR I need to find a white transition to place between them like in Pr.

    Make a whote solid.  Animate its opacity from 0 to 100 and back again.
    You'll use couple-three layers -- no automatic transitions in AE.  That's what Premiere's for.

  • How can i add an Engraving after i order the ipad ( add, not edit)

    how can i add an Engraving after i order the ipad ( add, not edit)

    Sorry, I don't mean to appear rude, but I don't understand the question. What do you mean "how do you call"? You pick up the telphone and call the store's number, just as you would any other person or company.
    None of the Apple Stores have on-line chat.

  • We can't add a decimal number column with the create table forms

    In the version 4, we can't add a decimal number column with the create table forms.

    In the GUI, I found the following column (I translate from french to english): PK, Name, Data_type, lenght, not null, default, comments.
    In the lenght field, if I enter 9,3 to have a NUMBER(9,3), I have a message saying that the number must be an integer.
