How do I add applications in Launchpad?

I recently just installed Adobe Creative Cloud (I had CS6 previously)  onto my Macbook Pro and noticed after I downloaded the creative cloud programs that the CS6 icons on the launchpad were gone (Only showing the Creative Cloud icons). The CS6 programs are still installed on my Macbook and show up in applications under the finder. How would I go about adding them back onto the launchpad?

Ahh - realised I don't need it - that's why it wasn't there. Please ignore... More coffee! Thanks

  • How do you add applications to the library list?

    The apps I want to write a workflow for are not in the default library list. How do I add them? Specifically, I'm talking about the xAct app. I intend to write a workflow to automate decoding FLAC compressed audio files and adding them to the iTunes library. I tried simply dragging the app into the library window but that did nothing.

    If the application has a GUI (Graphical User Interface), Apple has included methods for scripting that. Information about activating the UI Scripting, a UI Element Inspector (for figuring out what to call things), and some examples are located at http://www.apple.com/applescript/uiscripting/01.html .

  • How do I add applications when they are denied?

    Every time I go to open an e-mail, I get a message stating "Your browser must have Flash 9.0 or higher installed to add this application." However, I cannot download this application. At times, I get other messages stating that I need to tell my browser to allow access (such as to att.net), but I don't know how to do this. Any help is appreciated.

    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

  • How can i add apps to launchpad?

    I want to add an app to launchpad. I can see the app in programms but i want also to see it in launchpad.
    The suggestions for mac os x lion don't work for yosemite.

    There are two ways to get an application to show up in the LaunchPad... one is to install the application in your Applications folder.  This is where LaunchPad is looking for applications.  It doesn't care if you got it through the App Store or if it's an Apple application or not.  The second way is to drag the application over the LaunchPad icon residing on the dock and release it.  This will create a symbolic link to the application without actually moving the application into the Applications folder.  It has to be the application itself, not an installer for it, not a folder containing the application, the application.  The application should be added to the LaunchPad if you don't rush it, hold it over the LaunchPad icon for a second or two.
    Check to make sure it's not already in there... you won't see the LaunchPad dock icon do anything, you will just see the app you are dropping disappear.  It could be on a second page.  Click on the little dots when you launch LaunchPad to see if it's on one of the other pages.
    If that didn't do the trick, try resetting LaunchPad (note that any applications or folders you created/added in LaunchPad will have to be recreated/added):
    In Terminal, enter these two commands:
    defaults write com.apple.dock ResetLaunchPad -bool true;killall Dock
    then
    defaults write com.apple.dock ResetLaunchPad -bool false;killall Dock
    If that still isn't working, what is this app's name and where does it currently reside on your system?

  • How do I add applications to the startup items?

    I see a folder under system:startupitems, but I cannot modify it.

    To run an application automatically at startup use Login Items of Accounts preferences. StartupItems folders are for special types of items. Not used for what you want.
    Open Accounts preferences, click on the Login Items tab. Click the [+] button to add an item. A file Open dialog will appear. Locate the app you wish to add and click on the Open button.

  • How do i add app to launchpad?

    I have 2 versions of the same software and on Launchpad only one appears.
    Is there a way around this?

    Hmm... so according to the article, the only way to have an application seen in LaunchPad (short of an AppStore purchase) is to move it to the /Applications directory at the top level, since it knows nothing of sub-directories. Wow, I expected something less kludgy from Apple, specially given that many widely sold applications (MS Office, Adobe etc) routinely install software in locations other than the top level /Applications directory.
    That still doesn't explain the weirdness with iWork. I can see it's sitting inside a sub-directory under /Applications/iWork '09/. I installed it through the DVD I got, not through AppStore, ergo, LaunchPad should not pick it up. Still, it shows up in LaunchPad. Uh...?

  • How do I add apps to Launchpad in Mac OS X Lion?

    Only Apple apps appear in Launchpad. The Apps I previously purchased thru the App Store do not appear in Launchpad, nor do non-Apple apps like Word, Excel etc.  How do I get all or some of my Apps to appear in Launchpad?

    It is the same as the iPhone and iPad. Apple puts its apps on the first page of launchpad and then other apps on the second page. You can drag and move them around the same way as on the mobile devices.

  • How can I add applications not listed in the root Applications folder?

    I'm running in a non-administrative (i.e. not the first) user account, I have my own Applications folder with apps that I have downloaded and installed myself. Is it possible to add these apps to the list in Automator?

    I believe he was answering what you were implying by implying that Automator would automatically be aware of the actions once you've used the application.
    If it doesn't have any actions, then the app won't show up in Automator. If you've downloaded actions for an app separate from it, you can add the actions using an option in Automator's File menu. More about that here.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Automator/1.0/en/ensm1010.html
    Just to be clear, it shouldn't matter where the app is installed, just make sure you've used the app so the system will know about more about the app. The same thing goes for Spotlight, file types, services (application menu > Services), and so on. It shouldn't matter where the app is located, the system will discover what the app has available when you open that app.
    If you believe an app should have Automator actions, then review the website of the developer of that app for info about what the actions are and whether they made them separate from the app for some reason. Another possibility is the actions might be available only in certain versions of the app you've installed. Definitely check the the app's developer's website for info about its actions.

  • How do I add apps from launchpad to my iPad

    I have a bunch of medical apps that I paid for and put them on my macbook pro.  I recently won an ipad at an office drawing and want to transfer the apps I would like to use for work from my macbook to my ipad and preferably keep them on both.  How can I tranfer apps from macbook to ipad?

    Sorry, apps designed for the Mac will not work on the iPad. There may be similar apps avaialble from the App Store that can be installed on the iPad.

  • How do I add or remove applications I have on my computer to Launchpad?

    How do I add or remove applications I have on my computer to Launchpad?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    To add applications to Launchpad, just drag the application to the Launchpad icon.
    To remove applications from Launchpad, open Launchpad, hold the Option (Alt) key and press the X button above the application. This only works for App Store apps. To remove a non-Mac App Store application, you have to delete it in Finder

  • How do I add third party apps to launchpad?

    I have a number of third-party apps that I use infrequently, so I don't want them on the dock, but would like them in Launchpad, rather than having to search for them.  How can I add them to Launchpad?

    Ooops, my bad.  I did not realize that there was another dot at the bottom of Launchpad for a second page, and it contains my third-party apps!

  • 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.

    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. And how / why did it disappear?

    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.

  • How do I add an already built Shopping Cart  (PHP and MYSQL) application to a page in a Muse site?

    How do I add an already built Shopping Cart  (PHP and MYSQL) (Cartweaver 4) application to a page in a Muse site? Do I have to export the Muse site as Html to dreamweaver and them use the extension to bring the shooping cart in or can I do it directly in Muse?
    Message was edited by: mgv2048

    We have experimented with doing this with some good success. We have been working on adding Cartweaver to a Facebook page by essentially adding a Cartweaver store to Facebook in an iframe.  The "store" would be pages with just your basic product display, cart, and checkout functionality, with none of the "window dressing" - just use CSS to match the color and general look of the design it's being added to.
    The one problem with this for Facebook is when it comes time to check out toy have to leave Facebook and go to your server where an SSL is in place.  Fortunately in this situation this would not be the case, you can have an SSL installed to the root of your site and you'll be okay.
    This is an interesting project.  Give this a try and let me know how it goes and if you run into any snags, please make a post on the Cartweaver forums: http://forums.cartweaver.com - I'm really confident that this can work, and not only work, but work well.
    Looking forward to hearing how this goes, and being of what help we can.
