How can I put a Network icon/link on desktop

Hello,
Is it possible to put a Network icon/shortcut on the desktop ?
I know cmd-shift-k opens network, but is it possible to just create a shortcut on the desktop ?
I don't mean a shortcut to specific network drives, I mean to the network in general.
Thanks for your help !

You can't make an alias to it but you can do it with AppleScript. Open the AppleScript Editor and paste in the following:
tell application "Finder"
activate
tell application "System Events" to keystroke "K" using {command down, shift down}
end tell
Save it with a suitable name, as an Application, making sure that 'Run only', 'Startup Screen' and 'Stay open' are not checked. Now double-clicking it will open the Network window.

    Hey, Dynamite !
    Thanks so much for that ... what a 'dynamite' solution. It's so easy. I don't know how you people know all of these things ! But one last thing if you can help me - I've just switched over to Mozilla/Firefox from I.E., and now I cannot open my Hotmail from Mozilla/Firefox. I log in, it goes to my 'Inbox' page, but when I click on an Email letter to open it, nothing happens. I can't even go into 'Drafts' or 'Delete' or anything.

  • How can I put a footer that links to the first page of a pdf from the other pages?

    I am trying to create a pdf that has the option "Return to Table of Contents" at the bottom of each page from 2 to 23.  I know how to add a footer, and I know how to add a link, but is there a way to put a link as a footer?  I don't want to have to go in and create 22 links for each file. 

    Then duplicate that button to pages 3-23.
    To do that effectively go to Form Edit mode, right-click the button and select Duplicate Across Pages.

  • How Can I Remove An Application Icon From My Desktop?

    Every time I open Google Earth or Firefox, I little icon pops up on my desktop as a "disk". To make it go away I have to eject it. Surely there has to be a way to open a program and not have this happen. I'm sure it's an easy fix, but I'm still fairly new to this. Thanks to anyone who can tell me what to do!

    OK...I just figured out!
    When I dragged the icon down to my dock, I actually used the one from the volume instead of the one from my applications folder. Therefore it always wanted to open the .dmg file instead of the actual program. I THINK I said that all correctly! Thanks for the help though, you gave me the idea to try something different than I was and I found the solution.

    I want to email photos on a different email system, gmail. How can I get the email icon of iphoto to put my photo on a gmail email?

    If you have Mail setup a a client for your Gmail account set iPhoto to use Mail.  Then select one of Mail's stationary templates for photos and use it. May not be as good as the iPhoto templates but will be fancier than a plain email window.

  • How can I put a sign of mine as a Tab sign for my site?

    How can I put a sign of my choice as Tab sign for a site I have created? Thanks in advance -- basifra

    That sure isn't clear. If you want to create a '''favicon''' for your site you can, there are several sites that will help you with that.
    There are at least three linked here:
    :http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/excel/xl2html.htm#html-kit
    Since you don't know the terminology, I guessing you will have to put the reference into each page -- unless you actually do have your own domain/subdomain.
    <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="../excel/favicon.ico">
    it can refer to another site but you should avoid doing that unless the site does not allow you to have a favicon .

    How can I put my playlists on my NAS media server (Buffalo Linkstation mini) so I can access them through Home Sharing and Sonos?  FYI, right now I run my iTunes with media location on my laptop's c: drive so I can manage podcasts while on the go and map a lettered network drive to the media server device when I connect up at home.
