How did you get those custom names under the desktops in your screen shot?
Am I missing something?

How do we make a name appear under each of the desktops, as you have done in the screenshot that you posted?  When I activate mission control, the desktops along the top do not have any name below them.
Just read AMMOCAN's answer

  • Opening multiple desktops - spaces?  How do I create a new desktop

    Can someone tell me how I create another desktop on my 27inch screen - I have been told it is known as a 'space' which seem to show up in mission control but where can I add another?  Hope this makes sense !   Thanks

    If you open Mission Control you'll see 2 sections.  The majority of the screen will show you the contents of your current Space and the top of the screen will show you the other Spaces running that you can switch to (by default you should see 2 Spaces - your Desktop and Dashboard).  To create a new Space, move your cursor to the top-right of your Mission Control screen and new Space will partially slide onto the screen.  Click it to add it and then you can either drag windows from the current Desktop Space to the new Space or switch to the new Space and open applications/windows there directly.
    So far I haven't worked out how to rename the new Spaces opened, if that is even possible.

    Sorry but is this doesn't appear to be a question about Apple Remote Desktop, Apple's software for managing networked Macs and the topic of this forum. I'd suggest you post in the forum for the version of Mac OS X you're running.

  • How can I create a new folder in an external disk that is connected via USB to my Mac?

    How can I create a new folder in an external disk that is connected via USB to my Mac?

    Just like you would create a new folder anywhere. Open the drive's icon from your desktop or the Finder, and click shift-command-N. (Or use the Finder menu if you prefer - File - New Folder).
    If you can't create a folder, your drive may be the wrong format (you can't write to a Windows/NTFS formatted drive, for example). You'll have to back up any files you have on there, and then use Disk Utility to reformat it to Mac Extended (if it will only be used on a Mac) or MS-DOS format (if you want to share it with a PC).

  • How do I create a new document in adobe?

    How do I create a new document in adobe?

    The iPad runs on the iOS operating system and not the Macintosh OS. So the answer is "no." You need to have Acrobat running on a desktop machine to author PDFs.

  • How do I create a new folder in my documents?

    Hi there, I'm new on Mac.
    How do I create a new folder when I want a new folder in my documents?
    I also want to create folders on an extern harddrive, but I can only create a folder on the launchpad...

    See my orginal post - it answered the OPs question just fine:
    When you have any window open, you can press the Shift-Command-N keys to create a new untitled folder. Same with on an external hard drive. Also works on the Desktop.
    Maybe I should have said, to your reply:
    "and you don't have to open any windows to use the command on the Desktop."
    Would that have worked for you?

  • This may seem a silly question, but how can I create a new mailbox on my iPad?

    This may seem a silly question, but how can I create a new mailbox on my iPad?

    A new mailbox/folder - you can't, not yet. If you're using an IMAP mail account, you can create a mailbox on the server (either through webmail or desktop mail) and it'll appear on the iPad.
    We've been told the upcoming iOS5 will allow you to do so (I assume, provided you have IMAP).

  • TS2756 How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )

    How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )
    i know its not a problem whit my carrier o data plan or sharing preferences on the ipone because when i use it un my laptop it works perfectly through
    the usb and even works on the Imac through wifi and bluethood tethering but NOT through usb!!.
    the problem is that trying to make it work i deleted the "profile" usb iphone on the network prefereces panel. Now i only have 3 options: ethernet / wifi / bluetooth
    but not the usb iPhone i used to have.
    And when i try to add a new one i dont get a USB option.
    can some one help me please??
    this is how it looks (after the bluetooth PAN i used to have USB iPhone option)

    The question would be more appropriate in the Mac forums as it is not really related to the iPhone.

  • How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id?

    Hi there
    How do I create a new icloud email address for my apple id? My original email address is associated with my previous employers.
    When I send email from my Macbook, it seems as if I still work there, which is a problem.
    I would like to use the email address that I created for my iPad.
    When I login with my appleid (for my macbook) I keep getting the old company one, not the new one.
    Is there any way of resolving this? I

  • How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4?

    How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4? I followed the Garage Band process and ended up with the ring tone I want as a AAC audio file. It got stored in my iTunes a a song rather than a ring tone. How do I make it a ring tone vs. a song? I tried dragging it t the Ring Tone category at the bottom of the ITunes list, but it won't alloow me to move it?

    There's also an easy to use Applescript over at Doug's Applescripts for iTunes. It automates the whole thing. All you do is set the start and stop time on a file in iTuens and run the script. It will do everything else.

  • I have an iPad and and iPhone. They share an iCloud and I want separate iCloud accounts. How do I create a new account without losing any information? I want to keep the original account on one device.

    I have an iPad and an iPhone that share an iCloud account. I didn't realize when I got my iPad last year that when I signed up the iCloud on the device that it would share and use 5g of iCloud between the both of them. How do I unsync them and have two separate iCloud accounts? I don't care about sharing between them. When my kids put games on my iPad, I don't want them going on my phone. How do I create a new iCloud without losing any info on the other device?

  • I am trying to install a Canon Pixma MG8220 which requires my Airport Extreme password. I do no know it. I then  went to default Airport settings and renamed my network, but Airport required my password. How do I create a new password?

    How do I create a new password for my Airport Extreme if I do not know the old password?

    If you have the Mac that you used to configure the AirPort Extreme originally, you may be able to retrieve the password from KeyChain Access.
    See this User Tip from forum expert Tesserax:
                     AirPort - Regain Access from Forgotten Passwords
    If still no luck, you can reset the passwords again. Pay very close attention to the information about a Soft Reset in this Apple support document:

  • How do I create a new frame using Flash CS5 on a Mac so I can add more pictures to my website?

    I have what I hope is a fairly straight forward question that I hope you can answer if you write code with a Mac or are at least familiar with the process on a Mac?  The person I have been working with to create my photography website uses a PC.  Here is the problem.  I am trying to use my Mac in order to create frames so that I can add 5 more images to a portfolio that presently has 15 images.  The code is in an index.fla file.  If I want to create a new frame in the index.fla, let's say LOAD CODE 381 and want to use the same text that is already present in LOAD CODE 380 but with a few edits, I have no trouble going to the Action-Movie Clip and finding LOAD CODE 380 in the left hand column.  The problem is, on a Mac, how do I create frame LOAD CODE 381 and then how do I copy and paste the text from LOAD CODE 380 into LOAD CODE 381?  It looks like on a PC one can open LOAD CODE 380 in the Action-Movie Clip, highlight the text then right click on the red rectangular box in the timeline.  By doing so (on a PC) one sees a drop down menu that gives the option to "copy key frame".  What is the equivalent of the "copy key frame" on a Mac?  I can see where on the Mac you can go to Edit >copy.  Is this the equivalent of "copy key frame" on a PC?  If so, once I "copy" the text how do I create the new LOAD CODE 381 so that I can paste the text into the new frame?
    I WOULD BE EXTREMELY GRATEFUL TO ANYONE WITH THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION!  THANK YOU!!!!!

    Sorry not to be more clear.  It is a name assigned to one of the 
    frames by the person who originally designed the website and is shown 
    in the list of about 150 action frames that were created in this 
    particular fla document.  This "list" comes up in the left hand column 
    of the Action-Frame box. When I click on Load Code 380 which is half 
    way down the column of frames, the following text comes up on the 
    large screen to the right of the column of 130 frames.
    IMAGE.gotoAndPlay("start");
    loadVariables("data/series01/15title.txt", "_root.IMAGE.TITLE");
    loadVariables("data/series01/15price.txt", "_root.IMAGE.PRICE");
    loadMovie("data/series01/about.swf", "_root.IMAGE.ABOUT");
    IMAGE.mc_pic.attachMovie("pic","pic",1,)
    IMAGE.mc_picTHUMB.attachMovie("pic","pic",1,)
    This text is what I am trying to transfer to copy then paste into a 
    new frame after which time I want to slightly edit the text.  I am not 
    a programer so I apologize if I am not using all of the correct 
    terminology.
    Thank you again,  Jon
