How do I add the HD icon to my desktop?

I'd like to add my HD icon to my desktop.  I can't seem to figure out how to do this.  Appreciate your help as this is probably a pretty simple issue.

On the top of the screen go to Finder --> Preferences --> General --> and check show HD on desktop.

  • How do I add the Displays icon to the Menu Bar?

    In prior OS on my iMac, I was able to add the Display icon to the Menu Bar, making it a quick fix to adjust the resolution.  That option no longer appears in the Display section of System Preferences.  I am using multiple displays.  Could that make any difference?  Any suggestions?

  • How can I add the applications icon/folder to my dock?

    I just migrated everything from my G5 and would like to add the applications icon that automatically expands to my dock.
    Thanks

    Open a Finder window and click on the Macintosh HD on the left under Devices. One of the folders showing will be the applications folder; drag it onto the dock to the right of the System Preferences icon (individual apps can go to the left, but folders need to be to the right).
    Hope that helps.
    P.S. Don't forget to update your equipment settings/signature.

  • How do i add the airplay icon to the toolbar?

    I upgraded to Mountain Lion.  But, when I am on Safari, the AirPlay icon is missing.  How can I add it?  Thank you.
    Peace.

    Sadness.  Although, it sure seems that they may have mentioned equipment limitations more prominently.  Or, maybe, I just saw what I wanted to see.
    Thank you, mende1.

  • How do I add the Firefox icon to my mac os 10.4.11 tool bar?

    I just upgraded to firefox 4 and the icon disappeared from the toolbar on my mac screen. How do I get it back?

    *Firefox 4 versions and later do not run on a PowerPC Mac.
    *Firefox 4 and later require at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac.

  • How do I find the iCloud icon to add to the dock

    How do I find the iCloud icon to add to the dock.  I believe this was on the dock when I first had the computer.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    iCloud is not an application, so it does not appear on the Dock or Applications folder. Instead, you can manage iCloud settings in System Preferences > iCloud.
    iCloud only appears as an application in Windows because of iCloud Control Panel

  • How can I add the hard drive icon to the menu bar on a MBPr

    How can I add the hard drive icon to the menu bar on a MBPr?  I have downloaded Google Earth and it wants me to drag it to the hard drive for install. I was able to display the icon but now I would like to put it on the menu bar. Is this possible? Or can I add it to the hardware section under system preferences?
    I'm a new Apple user, coming out of the dark ages of a lifetime in the PC Windows world.
    Thanks

    It's on your Desktop, is it not? You cannot put it on the menubar through OS X although you may find third-party utilities that will. If you want it on the Desktop:
    Select Preferences from the Finder's Finder menu and check the desired boxes:
    Click on the Sidebar icon in the toolbar to set what you want displayed in the Sidebar.

    I have 2 apple tvs. One in the bedroom, one in the living room. When I try to airplay from my iPad, only the bedroom icon shows up. How do I add the living room?

    Firstly, go to http://iforgot.apple.com and sign in with the ID you use for iCloud. A new password will be sent to your associated email address.
    If that doesn't work, for example because it's going to an address you can't access, then you will have to contact Support. Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password' and click 'Continue'.
