HELP: How do I add a "DOWNLOADS" folder to the dock on my wife's account?

Hi,
My Leopard has 2 accounts... Mine which is administrator and my wife's which is a user account. For some reason there is no "Downloads" folder on her Dock so when she downloads a file she has trouble finding it. How do I add things to her dock... most importantly a downloads folder?
I have tried but can find no way to do it....

drag the downloads folder from a finder window into the dock. you'll probably want to drag to the right of the divider line.

  • How can i make my Downloads folder icon in Dock bounce again?

    I accidentally removed my downloads folder from the Dock and when I added it back onto the Dock, it would not bounce when i downloaded something.
    Before I removed it from the dock, it would always bounce whenever i download something and the thing i downloaded would appear on the icon. How can I get this setting again?

    Note if you don't have any folders on your Dock, note the trashcan is on one side of the dock with a divider between it and applications.  Minimized windows (with the yellow button on the upper left corner) will go between the trash and that divider.  You can drag folders into the section between the minimized windows and the trash.

  • I accidentally removed my download folder from the dock, how do I get it back?

    I accidently removed my download folder from my desktop, how do I get it back?

    I accidently removed my dowload folder as well.  Your tip easily put it back in the dock, but now the folder opens differently. It used to show the most recent downloads at the bottom of a vertical list of icons. Now, a huge folder opens up in seemingly random order. How do I get it to go back to the previous preferences?

  • How can I add a Mail folder with the "Inbox, Sent, and Trash" folders?  I have Windows 8.1

    After I installed the 7.0.6 update, my iPhone crashed & had to do a restart.  I saved my Contacts.  I've been syncing my iPhone to store data on my PC instead of iCloud.  I'm assuming all of my pictures etc. are in the iPod Photo Cache, which I cannot open since they are THMB files.  How can I view all of my "lost" data without having to pay for the "Converter" program, which according to many of the people in my boat, say doesn't work & is a rip off?  I'm also trying to put an "Archive" folder back in my Mail folder.  I've tried to follow instructions but my iPhone 7.1 does not have the same options.  All of this is so frustrating.....load an upgrade & screws a lot of stuff up.  Just like "Trust this computer?" on 7.0.6 update.  Anyway, I hope someone can help with these minor problems.
    Thank you.

    Not in Mail. If you referring to not having to use the menu, you can click the + sign at the bottom to create new mailboxes. But you still have to fill in the window with location and name. You can right click to create a new mailbox on an existing one, but not in the main account itself and you still have to fill in the info. It would create a sub folder.
    You can also try it at the gmail website. There might be shortcuts there.

  • How can I add manually-downloaded podcasts into the iTunes Podcase lists?

    I see no way to "import" an existing podcast MP3 file into the Podcast screen so it shows up in an existing Podcast list. I need this because I have older podcast episodes which the downloaded subscriptions do not include anymore, but these old episodes really belong in the same podcast list as the newer ones.
    This is a glarimg omission that makes the podcast screen inflexible and hard to use - plz help!
    Thanks,

    Anybody know the magic to make this work?

  • How do I put my downloads folder back in the dock after I removed it by accident?

    I inadvertently removed my Downloads folder from the dock and can't figure out how to put it back, so what do I do?

    Open finder.  Click on the home icon where that folder is stored. Click on the downloads folder and drag it to where the other folders are (utilities,applications) then let go.  Basically just  drag and drop

  • How do I add the Downloads folder to my dock?

    I updated to Mavericks (OS X) and now I can't drag and drop anything onto my dock. Prior to upgrade, every once in a while, the Downloads folder would disappear from the dock, but I could just drag and drop it back in.
    Now when I try to add to my dock, all that happens is that the folder is removed from the Sidebar in Finder.
    I also don't have a dotted line beside the trash can (it's a solid line).. When I drag the folder onto the dock, the space between the solid line and the trash can expands, but I just end up removing stuff from my sidebar.
    I feel like I've completely missed something..
    Thanks in advance!

  • Help I have 'lost' my downloads icon from the dock. Can I retrieve it? If so please describe how, using simple terms

    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)

  • Pls help - How can I add a typekit font to muse?

    As Muse doesn't come with all typekit fonts already included in the dropdown list of webfonts, I'd like to know how I can add a typekit font to the dropdown menu so I can use it for my website. I have Adobe creative cloud membership.
    I've searched the whole of the web and can't find anything about this at all - only about adding one of the existing muse typekit fonts which I already know how to do.
    Why doesn't Adobe include all typekit fonts with Muse when you're already a full creative cloud subscriber?

    Done!

  • How do I add a "file folder" to my TC so that I can save files directly to the TC?

    I am trying to figure out how I can add a "File Folder" to my TC so that I can save files directly to it? The only folder it displays is "Data" which is where my bac ups save...

    Double click on the "Data" folder in the Finder under the SHARED heading, and then click the gear icon at the top of the window and select New Folder.
    You can name this folder anything you wish and also create as many folders as you wish.
    If you are also using the Time Capsule drive for Time Machine backups, it is not really recommended that you "mix" regular files with Time Machine backups because there will be a struggle for space on the drive at some point.
    If you have plenty of free space on the Time Capsule drive, you may be OK with keeping a portion dedicated for regular files.
