Disappear from Dock?

Hi folks,
I just noticed since upgrading to the Trial version of Design Suite, that my active Suite applications are not appearing in the dock menu. Is there a fix for that? I can't find anything in preferences. And what is weird is that they don't appear as active apps when I hit cmd-tab. So it may be one of my Finder add-ons, but not sure.
Also, seems to be possible related to hiding the apps, but still, it should show in the dock...

Naviagte to ~(yourhome/library/preferences/com.apple.dock.plist and delete this file. Then log out and back in or restart. You'll have to re-set up your Dock again the way you like it.
Let us know.

Downloads disappeared from Dock. How can I re-establish ?

Downloads suddenly disappeared from the Dock. Everytime I download now, it just stays within the download of the window, instead of going to the icon i had on Dock. Any way I can easily set this back ?

Hello bdy:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
The most probable reason is that you accidentally dragged the icon out of the dock. I have done this myself when I "opened" a program and dragged the pointer from the dock instead.

Hi Rob, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
I am not familiar with WD software, so I cannot help you with that (maybe WD has tech support?), but why not use Time Machine or cloning software such as SuperDuper! or CarbonCopyCloner? Actually, I recommend either partitioning the external HD into at least two partitions, or using at least two external HDs, and running TM on one, and doing a regular clone to the other.

You should be able to put Launchpad back in the Dock by dragging it from the Applications folder to the left section of the Dock. As to why it won't launch, run the Console utility, try to run Launchpad, and see if any messages appear in the Console window.

Do you have Time Machine enabled. If so, go back through your previous months until it features in your Application folder. Then restore.

How to stop application folder form disappearing from the dock

I'm on MAC OS 10.6.7 on my Macbook 7.1. My applications folder disappeared from the dock. I can drag a new copy from the Mac Hard Disk folder to the dock (to the right of the dashed line (my dock is at the bottom) and it appears with an Address book icon. After 10 to 15 seconds, the icon disappears.
Anyone know what is going on and how to fix this?

Not sure why this is happening, but try this. This is the way I've done it. First, make an alias of the folder (File>make alias) and put it somwhere, like Documents. Then, copy drag it (Option-click) to the part of the dock below or to the side of the separator near the Trash icon. This will place an alias of the folder in the Dock. You must keep the first alias you made.
You can also make one just for Utilities, the same way. The app folder will appear with an A and the Utilties folder will appear with an X.
EDIT: It's been a while now, but I think I got rid of the default app folder because I didn't like the way it looked and functioned.
You can also see I put an alias of my home folder there, as well.
Might as well mention another customisation. Get Tinkertool (free) Go to Dock>Disable Dock Expose to get rid of the very annoying -- at least to me -- entire screen turning black when opening one of the Dock icon's options.

Firefox disappears from my dock and I have to copy it to my Apps folder each time I start up, and I am then prompted to install the latest version, but notification will not go beyond contacting server.

I have tried many of the suggested solutions from online communities, like uninstalling and reinstalling, but I still have the same problem - Firefox disappears from my dock, when I click on the 'question mark' in the dock to open it, I'm asked to copy to my Apps folder, which I have to do each time and replace old version. Then I'm prompted to install the latest version, but when I do this, it gets stuck on contacting server. Please help! I'm using Yosemite 10.10.

Do you have the current version of list.it (version 0.4.8.9.1)? This page https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/12737/ indicates it is compatible with all Firefox 3.6.* versions.
Tools > Add-ons > Extensions shows what version. If it is old, click "Find Updates" at the bottom of the Extensions window.

Delete the App Store app by dragging it and dropping it into the Trash. Then download and install the appropriate update combo for your version of OS X;
Install new MAS app -
OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3 update combo

OS X Lion 10.7.5 update combo

Where is my downloads folder it disappeared from the dock?

where is my downloads folder it disappeared from the dock?

The icons in your Dock are "aliases" or copies of the original so it's easier to open them.
To find your original Downloads folder, simply click on the Smiley Face Icon in the Dock near the begining, it opens a Finder Window.
On the left, click on your "username" icon, on the right a list of folders and one will be "Downloads"
Now click and drag this folder to the Dock next to the Trash Can (only) and it will make a new "alias" there.

Why are icons disappearing from my dock even tho I can still use the location to open the app

How do I keep icons from disappearing from my dock - even tho I can click on the emptied location and open the "ghost" application?

That sounds off. I would right click on the icon/space in the dock and click options>remove from dock. Then drag the application from the apps folder in finder to the dock again and see if it stays.

How do I add my Applications fold back onto the dock? People say I must drag it near the trash can, but that just puts it past that barrier. I am trying to get it back to where it disappeared from, on the left hand side near the finder icon.

With respect, you actually cannot store folders on the left side of the Dock - only on the right side. I wonder if you're talking about Launchpad, which looks like a silver rocket and shows you your installed applications? It's not actually a shortcut to the Applications folder, though. You can certainly drag Launchpad into the left side of the Dock from the Applications folder.
