General Error: Accidentally dragged my active download icon into the trash
It does not show up in the trash, how can I replace it?
I've clicked downloads and dragged it do my bottom desktop bar, but its not the same thing as the original
If you are asking about the download window that opens when downloading a file in Safari
then in the Safari task bar click on View, then Customize Toolbar and drag the Default set into the task bar

Folks,
I found my wife dropping the icon of her backup file into the trash icon on the dock. She had just completed using Time machine and when to uninstall the Gdrive. I told her this was an erroneous practice. She disagreed. Who is right?
Thanks in advance.http://www.g-technology.com/kbase/files/G-RAID-Manual-Unmount.pdf
Hope this helps. -
I have by accident dragged the mac os icon into the trash and can't get it
back, I don't want to empty trash just in case I delete it permanently (not sure if this is poss!). is there any way I can get it back?
What icon are you talking about? Your harddrive? Just drag it back out of the trash and either onto the desktop or wherever it was originally, and you should be fine. You can open the trash can by single-clicking its icon in the dock.

I've had an 'urgent' message telling me to upgrade Firefox to 3.6.6 in order to prevent online attacks but when I try to drag the newly downloaded icon into the applications folder a message comes up saying I do not have sufficient priviledges. Can you explain why and what I have to do?
* Download a new copy of the Firefox program: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re)install.
* Install the new version that you have downloaded.

Help I have 'lost' my downloads icon from the dock on my desktop Mac. Can I retrieve it? If so please describe how, using simple terms. I have tried searching folders, finder and trash
Your Downloads folder should be in your Home folder. Just drag it to the Dock.
If you've managed to delete it, try creating a new folder called 'Downloads'. You will probably need to nominate it in Safari or any other browser preferences as your download destination. (Safari Preferences>General, 'Save downloaded items to:' menu) -
So what happens if i drag the harddrive icon to the trash?
I'm trying to use a new harddrive icon other than the default one... so i downloaded one and i can copy it and paste it on my desktop, but i dont want two harddrive icons...
if i drag the original icon to the trash, and "eject" it, am i going to screw anything up?Hi, John,
I am an old, unreconstructed rebel, a Confederate, and when I bought my iBook I thought it would be funny to name the hard disk after the Yankee general, Maj. Gen. George B. McClellan, who was affectionately called, as you might guess, "Little Mac."
Would it be possible to replace the normal icon for my hard disk with a picture of Gen. McClellan?
Could you tell me what the image size should be for fastest placement as an icon by the operating system? I can adjust the size with a "save as" operation in Adobe Photoshop Elements. I now have the desktop icon size set to "20 X 20," but that would not be much of a picture, I'm afraid.
Many Thanks,
Jim Chumbley -
When i try to restore my ipod i recieve an error message saying that "problem downloading softwar for the ipod owner's ipod. error (-23) Please help i need to restore because my daughter somehow set a passcode lock on it and didnt know it and does not know passcode.
There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone (or another iOS device)
See the steps below for error codes 3000-3999.
Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
Update to the latest version of iTunes.
Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.
Test restoring while connected to a known-good network. -
I can't download because I have accidently moved my download icon to the the screen and it went up in smoke
Assuming you mean your Downloads folder (there is no download icon): Go to Home and drag the Downloads folder to the left of the @ pin in your Dock. Make sure you drag the folder over the Dock separator line.

Why "Drag the Firefox Icon into the Applications folder" always pops up?
i follow the steps shown to install firefox on mac. Firefox is working well except every time when i lauch it, "Drag the Firefox Icon into the Applications folder" always pops up? Can you help me solve the problem?
Thank you!If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
*Firefox 8.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
*Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
*Install the new version that you have downloaded

I can't drag the Icon into the Applic. folder
I have a iMac and can't drag the FF icon into the Applications folder
Firefox 5 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 5 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html -

sunnyWell, I don't really understand the DnD interface so maybe my chess board example will be easier to understand and modify:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?forumID=57&threadID=518707
Basically what you would need to do is:
a) on a mousePressed you would need to create a new JLabel with the icon from the clicked label and add the label to the glass pane
b) mouseDragged code would be the same you just repaint the label as it is moved
c) on a mouseReleased, you would need to check that the label is now positioned over your "drop panel" and then add the label to the panel using the panels coordinates not the glass pane coordinates. -
Why do I get an error message when attempting to download music into a project in Ellements 13?
Why do I get an error message when attempting to download music into a project in Ellements 13?
cornman30
What computer operating system?
And, where is the music coming from, iTunes? If so, that is a known problem with Premiere Elements (just about any version).
The answer has been to convert the iTunes music to the wav version in iTunes.
The following is the iTunes' document how to.
iTunes: How to convert a song to a different file format - Apple Support
Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
If other than above, please supply more details to help us help you.
Thank you.

After You Drag an Icon Into the Dock, Can You Change the Way it Looks?
I work with files that are on a few Windows servers, so I can't change the icons of any files or folders that are on those servers. I've dragged each of the servers' icons into my dock so I can access them quickly, but all the icons in the dock look the same. Is there a way I can change the icons in the dock that represent those servers? There's no "Get Info" for them so you can't copy and paste the same way you can with folder/file icons that reside on your hard drive.
I created an alias (shortcut), copied it onto my desktop, changed that icon, then dragged that into my dock, and then deleted all the original aliases, but it doesn't hold the link, so I want to be able to drag the server icon into the dock and then access that icon and change it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
LloydAnything on this yet? The whole "alias/shortcut" thing didn't work. I actually got it to work but after restarting the computer the icons in the dock show as question marks.
Isn't there a resource file or something I can dig into to change those icons in the dock?
Thanks...
