Different minimised documents in different spaces.

Fellow Mac lovers.... help, please!
It would be a great help if, when I minimise a document, it didn't appear in the Docks of all the differing Spaces I have set up on my computer. In fact, I would like to be able to have differing minimised documents available in Dock of differing Spaces. Does anyone know if this is possible?
I did download a neat program, DockSpaces, that allows you to have multiple docks, but it doesn't seem to allow having different minimised documents in the differing docks.
Any suggestions or ideas on this would be very gratefully received.

there is certainly no built in way to do it. In fact Dock Spaces is the only program I've ever heard of that allows you to have different docks in different spaces. if it can't do it, it's impossible.

A workaround to get open documents in different Spaces to the allocated PS space

A small workaround for Spaces CS5 Mac.
If you have CS5 documents spread over different Spaces due to clicking them in the finder and want to get them all back in to the allocated PS Space, here's a workaround.
You do need one doc open in the correct space I'm afraid for it to work. Create a new doc in there if you have to. I tend to leave one small doc open in the right Space all the time now.
Go to the allocated PS space. Select the menu option "Consolidate all to tabs" from the Window>Arrange menu.
This will bring all the open docs from their spaces to the correct space as tabs.
That might be enough for you but you can't drag adjustments layers and layers with alphas etc to another doc in Tab view, something I do all the time when I'm retouching 20-30 shots and I'm trying to match them.
Hard to do that with tab view obviously.
Next select "Float all in windows" and you'll have your docs viewable, side by side in the right space.
If you assign a key command to those options, it becomes a quick tap 1-2 and you're done.
As far as I can tell, if you want floating windows, and all your docs in the right place, and don't want to open your images from the PS open dialogue (who does when you have 6 windows of 50 images on your dual 30" monitor setup?) then this will do it.
It's not great for all things but it's better than "It's all Apple's fault"

Spaces: Different documents from one app (i.e. Word) in different Spaces

I've been trying to properly use Spaces since getting my macbook two years ago and still haven't figured it out!! Is it possible to open different word documents in different spaces? Right now every time I open a word document it opens just in the space where word was originally opened. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

When MSN "upgraded" Hotmail to Outlook a couple of years ago, they "redesigned" (some would say, destroyed) the user interface, and took away the ability to print directly from a browser.
They hid their Print selection behind the three dots "..." at the far right of the Outlook top menu bar.
Once you find it, use their Print, and things will once again print as you expect them to.

SPACES: Can I have same program, different docs in different Spaces?

I'd like to have one OmniOutliner document open in Space #1, and a different OmniOutliner document open in Space #2. But I haven't yet figured out how to do this. Is there a way for me to have two different documents from the same program open in two different Spaces?

Spaces are generally designed to house a specific application in a specific space.
You can try dragging one of your documents to another space, provided that OmniOutliner hasn't been assigned to a certain space, however it is an application, not window based function.

How do I open multiple Safari pages in different Spaces?

My wife's MacBook Pro will open Safari in different Spaces by opening Safari, switching to a new space, then holding down a single click on the Safari sign located in the Dock. It pulls up several options including Open New Window. When I click on that, it will open another session of Safari, while retaining the session running on the other Space.
My new MacBook Pro will not do this. I have looked and cannot find any topic addressing this issue. Please help me with this, it is a more practical option for my work than just opening multiple tabs in the same space.

It slightly darkens the entire screen, shrinking my page some, and gives me three side by side options including, Quit, Hide, Options. The Options tab expands into three more options of Keep in Dock, Open at Login, Show in Finder. The first two of these tabs are checked.

FaceTime pauses in different spaces

During a FaceTime video call, when I try to switch to a different space from my desktop, the camera turns off.
Is there a way to prevent this from happening? I am using a Mid-2011 Macbook Air with Mavericks and FaceTime version 3.0.

Multiple Windows in Different Spaces

Hello,
I'm wondering if there is a way to have multiple windows from the same program open in different spaces. For example, I'm working on my dissertation and I'd like to have my primary Word file open in one space and research Word files open in different spaces. Every time I try to move one Word window to a different space, they all move. I've just upgraded to 10.5 from 10.4 and I'm afraid I need a bit of hand-holding.
Is this do-able? How can I do it?
Much obliged!

Until now I never had the need to have multiple Word windows open in different spaces but your post made me interested and I went to try it myself. I tried Word, PowerPoint and Excel that came with my Office 2008 and encountered that strange behavior only with Word, so it's not an issue related to MS-software in general but Word-specific.
Furthermore in system preferences I tried to assign a fixed space for Word to open and that didn't work either. No matter which space I assign to it Word always opens in the active space, whatever that may be at that moment. Obviously Word can't handle spaces. To me it seems like a bug because the other Office-apps behave the way they are supposed to do. I don't see a workaround at the moment. This answer is quite unsatisfactory, I know, but I hope I could help you anyway by posting my experiences.

I would like to open different Safari windows in different Spaces

I would like to be able to open different Safari windows in different Spaces. They guy at the Apple store told me this was impossible, but I am 99% sure that I accidentally had it working this way before I realized what Spaces was, but now that I have set my Spaces preferences, I cannot get it to work for me.
Ideally, my husband could use one space - he only uses Safari. And I could use the other Spaces for my various applications, including Safari.
Any suggestions appreciated!

I do it as follows.
I don't have Safari assigned to any (or all) spaces. I don't have the little checkbox checked at the bottom of Spaces preferences ("When switching to an application...").
In a given space I click on Safari in the dock. This makes it the active application. Of course, if a window is already open in that space it will come to the front. But suppose there isn't a window open. I then ask for a new window (via the File menu, or via command-n). Voila. That window is in that space. You can do this in any space and the windows stay where you created them.
(A shortcut is simply to control-click on the Safari dock icon and select "New Window".)

Assigning Different Spaces to Multiple Displays

Hi,
I have my Mac connected to my TV (not mirroring) and I'm using Spaces.
I was wondering if it was possible to assign to each display, a different Space?
In other words, can I have my Mac screen displaying Space 1, and my TV displaying Space 3?
My problem is simple: I'm working on my Mac display, and I'm also watching a video on my TV. But I can't display the video in full-screen because then it takes up both screens.
Thanks for your help if you have any ideas.

Just to be clear, you CAN run an application and split its windows across different Spaces by dragging those windows in the Spaces view. So open Firefox in Space 1, open a second FF window in Space 1, then F8 and drag the second window into Space 2 and voila. It's somewhat random what happens when you click on the application icon in the dock when you do this, but it does work.
Good point about the background being very resource-intensive. Never mind.

Displaying different spaces in dual monitors

Hi, all.
I am using dual monitors in Mountain Lion. Can I display different spaces (desktop 1, desktop 2 or dashboard) in different monitors using mission control?
Thank you.

Any suggestion for me to watch youtube in full screen in one monitor and browse the web in the other monitor using the same application?
Thank you.
I don't know how to achieve what you want exactly, but for this very same purpose I have used two browsers.
My usual browser is Safari, but I have successfully done what you describe by opening the broadcast with Chrome and navigating the web in Safari at the same time (I suppose Firefox would work just as well).

Can I permanently allocate programs to different Spaces using Mission Control?

ie. Will they re-open in previously allocated spaces after shut down or quitting the program?
I have created 4 desktop spaces, and know how to put different programs/windows into different spaces, but I haven't been able to work out how to have them re-open in those spaces each time, without having to manually move them there. You used to be able to do this in Expose and Spaces, but can you do it with Mission Control?

Jose,
Click and hold the Application icon in the Dock, and you will be offered this contextual menu to make your choice:

Bug. Dock now wants 2 clicks to change programs on different Spaces.

Hi,
This just started happening yesterday. Opening a program using the dock wasn't affected. I use Spaces, this only occurs when I want to switch to a program that is assigned to a different space than the active program.
Previously, 1 click would select whatever program I had running, and everything would move to the appropriate Space and that would become the active program. As of yesterday I must first click on the program's dock icon, wait a second, and click again, then it would move to the space on which the program was opened.
Say I have Safari, Pages, and Mail all open on space 1, but Firefox open on page 2. If I'm in Safari, and want to go to Mail, no problem. I just click on the Mail dock icon and it comes to the front. If, however, I want to switch to Firefox, I have to hit the dock icon twice, fairly slowly. On the first click "Firefox" will appear in the menu bar, but it will not 'move' to Firefox until I click a second time. Returning to Safari, or any program not running on the same space as Firefox requires the same action.
If I open a new program, I click once, the program starts up, and it moves to the appropriate space - same as normal. It is just in switching programs that this happens.
Has anyone else experienced this bug? Any ideas on how to get it to behave normally?
Thanks - JB

I am experiencing similar symptoms trying to get AD authentication to work in apex 3.2.1. After reading your thread, I changed to use a custom page already in the app (I'm testing with the demo app) and it seemed to accept my credentials. However... The application itself is not showing any data now. When I have the auth scheme set back to the original (I think it is using DB accounts), I see data again. So even though it seems that I had a successful auth, something else is wrong. Did you ever solve your issue with an acceptable solution or work-around?

Folders in Different Spaces

Is there any way to have folders or documents in one space but not another? That is, to put all the folders I have with photos in space 2, and text documents in space 3 (but not have them show up in all the spaces at once)? Thanks.

Bumping this to the top in hopes of an answer......thanks.

Minimised document window issue.

InDesign CC: How can I stop minimised document windows from automatically reopening when I open or close another window?

Hi
Ok, are you minimising them to the dock (by clicking the amber "traffic light" at the top left of the window or using cmd-m? If so, that's the probaly macOS restoring them when you switch back to the app.
Why not try turning on the application frame (window > application frame) and having your documents in tabs instead - it is a much cleaner way to work if you have to keep loads of documents open. They are still occupying space in memory after all, even when they are minimised.
Having said that, the application frame isn't to everyone's taste but do give it a try!

"Given the context root folder as /mywebcenter"
The context root you are talking about, is this the parameter in the UCM connection for Web Server Context Root ? If so, this isn't correct. This field should contain the context root of UCM, not webcenter.
I made a blog post on how to properly create a connection to UCM from the EM. http://www.yonaweb.be/enable_ucm_check_in_profiles_webcenter_ps3_0
If you don't use the check in profiles and just read the part on Create a connection in the Enterprise Manager.
Hope this helps.
