Here's a Lion-noob question... where are the desktop icons?

like the harddrive. the one that usually pops up in the upper right hand corner and says "Macintosh" along the bottom?

Click onto the Desktop, select Preferences from the Finder menu. Click on the General icon in the toolbar. Check the boxes for the items you want displayed. Click on the Sidebar icon in the toolbar and configure what is displayed in the sidebar.

  • Where are the Desktops?

    Hi guys, someone can help help me with the Mission Control and the desktop? So, we know that MC should do whet Space did with SL, but in SL I was able to assign appz the the Spaces (1, 2, 3, etc) and have that forever. Now I´m trying to do the same thing with MC, instead to add space I add desktop and assign it an app, right? The problem is that when I restart the Mac, all those setting I created desappear and everything go back to the default setting of Lion.
    Any idea how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Sus,
    Go to System Administration->Portal Display->Desktop & Display Rules->Browse Portal COntent->administrator->Super Administrator->Mater Rule Colection (right click and open object)
    Here you'll find the rule that are asigned and working actively inside portal.
    And, to see all the available desktops, go to System Administration->Portal Display->Desktop & Display Rules->Browse Portal COntent->Content Provided by SAP->End user Content->Standard Portal User.
    In order to create a new desktop, copy object from here and paste to your folder. No change should be made into this folder.

  • Where are the toolbar icons located on a mac

    I want to find out where the toolbar icons are found in the OSX.
    The ones that  I am refereing to are those found in finder windows at the top, that show things like the quickview icon etc.
    I want to be able to make my own for scripts that I want to place in the bar, so if anyone knows where I can download a template etc I would be very grateful
    Many Thanks
    Matt

    You create an alias in the top bar of the Finder window simply by dragging the source file onto the middle area of the bar. What you'll get for a script file I'm not sure, but if it's not to your taste it should be possible to change the icon of the source file in the 'get info' window and then re-drag it to the toolbar.
    To remove items from there, you need to hold down the command key (⌘) while dragging to the desktop (same goes for sidebar).

  • Where are the default icon set for OSX located?

    Hi all. im new to osx and mac (like 2 weeks in) and really like it so far.
    I really like the folder icons with the stamped icon on them, like the downloads folder with the stamped down arrow, and the applications folder with the stamped A.
    Ive created a folder for my Work files which i'd like to add a custom icon too. i know how to change the icon, but id like to see what other 'stamped folder' icons are available in the osx iconset so i can change it to one of those for consistency sake.
    Anyone know how?
    Thanks

    The commands baltwo gave you will show all hidden files, as will TinkerTool, which you REALLY don't want to do! There is an enormous amount of visual clutter that will appear.
    A new command appeared in Leopard, I think, which made it possible to easily change the hidden bit for any file or folder, without need of the specialized commands from Developer tools. IF the hidden bit is the only problem this will fix it:
    sudo chflags nohidden /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle
    Just copy the above and paste into the command prompt in Terminal, press Return, then type your admin password (it isn't echoed to the monitor in any way, so type carefully) and press Return again. The CoreTypes.bundle should then reappear.

  • Where are my desktop icons going?

    Everyone once in a while, usually after long battery use, my desktop icons disappear. The only way to get them back is to restart. Anyone experience this? I'm running 10.6.2 with all updates.

    I get that sometimes when moving moving my MacBook from work (where I use an external display in addition to the built-in display) to home (built-in display only). I think Finder misses the display change event, and still thinks that I'm using both displays.
    Relaunching Finder fixes it. Option-Control-Click on Finder in the Dock, and select Relaunch. Not perfect, but not as big as restarting the OS.

  • Where Are The Master Files Stored For iWeb?

    I can't seem to figure out where the master files are stored in iWeb. For example I was trying to help of friend with his iWeb website, so I told him to send the files - and then I was planning to load them into iWeb on my computer... but I couldn't figure out where to put them... and he did not know where they were either!

  • Where are the printer profiles in Mt. Lion 10.8.5? I want to install paper manufacturer's profiles.

    I want to install paper manufacturer's profiles. All of my existing profiles were carried over when I upgraded to 10.8 but i do not find anything like the previous Color Sync folder. Where do I put the new profiles? And why can't Spotlight find the existing ones? BTW, I can't find them on my iMac running 10.7.5 either.

    Where are the rest?
    Depends. For Epson printers, they're in the /Library/Printers/EPSON/ folder, and that itself varies. For the Stylus Pro 4900, they're in that folder, and then another couple of subfolders deep in InjetPrinter2/ICCProfiles. Sometimes they're tucked away in a .plugin or .framework file within the EPSON folder, or one of its subfolders. In short, they're not always easy to find. At least not with Spotlight.
    To make your search way easier, download the free EasyFind. Turn on the check boxes to look within Package contents, and Invisible Files & Folders. There's nothing on the drive that can hide from you. Then do a search for .icc .
    But unless your objective is to remove a long list of profiles you'll never use, there's no need to find these other obscure locations OS X lists profiles from. Just put the ones you want to use in either the /Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder (if you want all users of that Mac to have access to the profiles), or the ~/Library/ColorSync/Profiles/ folder (the tilde means your user account). Only you will have access to the profiles if placed there.

  • Upgraded to Lion - where are the Library & Application Support folders ?

    Where are the Library & Application Support folders that were available in Leopard 10.5.8 ?

    They're in the same location as before, but you need to use a method such as choosing Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and providing ~/Library/Application Support/ as the path.

  • Where are the actual documents stored in solution manager (KW)?

    Hello,
    I have a question regarding Solution Manager and storing documentation.
    When we in our process structure in a project uploads a word document
    (as documentation), where are the file then physically stored?
    I have checked the table SA01PHIO (a KW table), here I see a new entry every time I
    upload a new word document (or other type of documentation). But this
    table does not grow accordingly to the size of the word documents I
    upload, so the physical document must be stored somewhere else in the
    database.
    The description of field 'PHIO_ID' in table SA01PHIO is "Physical document", but since the field is of type char (size 32), then it can only be a link to the actual file?
    We need to know where the documents are stored, so that we can plan our
    storage strategy and database space management accordingly.
    Anyone knows where the files are stored in the database?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards

    Samuli,
    Thank you for your help.
    After further searches, I have found exactly what I was looking for.
    Samuli, as you said, documents are stored in table SACONT01, but I did not understand how they were stored, as all the data you have in this table is something like:
    FF06010102028000343130320000000074040000121F9D02A37D7259692086C2F0D7761017222...
    So the information can be benefit to other people searching, I will share it here.
    The string of alpha-numeric characters you see above is a "part" of the document.
    Document data is cut into clusters, and stored in table SACONT01 (in field CLUSTD, coupled with CLUSTR).
    In order to retrieve all the clusters for a given document, you need to get its logical ID (LOIO - LOgical Information on Object):
    - Select the document (SOLAR01/02 for projects, SOLMAN_DIRECTORY for solutions)
    - Enter DOC_INFO in the transaction code field
    - Copy the Object ID
    In table SA01PHIO, retrieve the physical id(s) from the logical id (PHIO - PHysical Information on Object).
    Search SACONT01 with the physical id(s).
    Just as an example:
    - 340 entries for a Word document (about 50 pages)
    - 57000 entries for a video (200 MB)
    Hope it will help.
    Regards,
    Rémi.
