How do i set up icons on desk top to link to websites please?

at present i use start, programs, excel, for example

You can drag the favicon on the left end of the location bar onto the desktop to create a shortcut.<br />
If you create an internet shortcut that way then that shortcut gets the icon of the default browser.<br />
If you want a different icon (favicon) then you have to assign that icon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties).<br />
You can usually get the favicon if you append "favicon.ico" to the main domain of a website (e.g. http://www.mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder or see if you can find it in "Tools > Page Info > Media".

Drag the Word icon back to where it belongs.
Applications > Microsoft Office 2011 > Put Word there.
I'm assuming you have Office 2011. If you have 2008 there should be a similar location to put Word.

On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla

On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla
== User Agent ==
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; GTB6.5; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

Thanks for the suggestion.
A few weeks ago I downloaded some free software from the "tucows.com" website, it appears to have permanently hijacked my web browsers (both firefox and IE) so all searches go to their "searchqu" site, and new tabs open at that site. I was unable to repair this with the addins you suggested or by editing my user preferences files, and ended up having to reinstall firefox. Hopefully I won't run into the tucows rootkit ;)
But thanks anyway.

If you have upgraded to Mavericks, then it sounds like maybe a Notification Alert without a Banner.
To check, click on the three bars up on the right side of your menu bar.

how can i change the icon in the top left of a jdialog.
thnkx in advance

You cannot directly. If you have a jFrame (e.g.) with your own icon you can use one of the JDialog costructors using (Component owner, ... ). Then the dialog will display the same icon.

How can i transfer web page to desk top icon

unable to set a web page on my desk top so i can pull up

Hello,
# You can click and drag the site identity button (padlock or globe icon to the left of the web link on your address bar) to your desktop.
# Another way is to copy the web address, right click on your desktop and select New > Shortcut, and paste the web address in the box for the "location of the item".
# A third way is to create another Firefox/Internet Explorer/Chrome/etc shortcut on your desktop, right click the shortcut and select properties. Under the Shortcut tab, paste the web address after the ".exe" part of the target line.

I would like to know how to DELETE icloud from my iMAC desk top. Would it automrically have synced with my wife's I pad, and other wireless devices, or is it all seperate

Can anyone help me out ?
I would like to get info on how to DELETE
iCLOUD from my desk top MAC.
Would it already have synced to the iPAD?
Apple does not give any info on the iCLOUD,
in a proper way to DELETE..for that matter,
I can't even find "SETTINGS" on my Mac,
let alone settings for iCLOUD.Any info
would be better than what Apple gives up.
Apple is useless when trying to get any information!

You have to search with some patience and you will find all the informations on the Apple support pages and here in this forum.
You find i Cloud in SAFARI at www.icloud.com and set as you like.
Usually iCloud sincs all the devices which have the same AppleID.
If you wish to use devices for different persons you need to give them different AplleID and on the MAC create different User Accounts. Each will be fully separate.
Or you can go to settings (settings are to be found under the apple icon on top left of the screen) and from there open Sistem Preferences and iCloud.

Murray's being way too nice. Where to begin?
See the style above? Note that it says 'style15' - it means
that
you're using DW's properties bar to create a whole bunch of
separate
little CSS styles. They're tough to keep track of, and you
wind up
with a bunch of them scattered through your code. Think
through your
CSS, create your classes in your (external) stylesheet, and
apply them
as necessary.
You used Fireworks to export HTML code. Fireworks creates
notoriously
fragile HTML. That's the reason for the line of spacer .gifs.
They're totally unnecessary and bloat your code with no need.
That's
also the reason for having a rowspan and a colspan on the td.
I
wouldn't even attempt to try to sort something like that out.
You used Flash for navigation. That doesn't work for people
using
assistive devices to visit your site, it doesn't work for
people who
don't have Flash, and probably more important, it doesn't
work for
search engines.
You use an iframe on the page. That creates an internal
scrollbar.
This one is arguable, but many of us consider internal
scrollbars to
be a detriment to usability.
In my opinion - your best bet? Start over. Take your
fireworks comp,
slice it up, and use the slices as parts to a page you create
using
one of DW's built-in sample pages.

Deleted stack icon on desk top

I am going to sound really stupid. My stack icon on the desk top disappeared with a little smoke cloud, how do i get it back?

Go to Finder and then drag the icon back down to the dock. You cannot delete items from within the Stacks view. You have to go to Finder and then find the folder you want to delete the file from and delete it from there.

SETTING C8180 PRINTER FOR DESK TOP (WIRED) AND ALSO NOTEBOOK WIRELESS

I have a C8180 already hooked to my desk top that works fine. I brought a Notebook HP dv7-3173nr that runs Windows 7 and I want to add it so that I can also print to the same printer wireless. Bottom line I will have two PC's printing to the same printer, one via the USB cable and one wireless. I am pretty new at these things so if possible make it easy for me to understand,, PLEASE. I am using a NETSYS e2000 router
Ben
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Assuming both of your computers are connected to your router, your best option is to connect the printer to the router for all to use. If you do what you are suggesting, you will only be able to share the print function with your new notebook PC and it is hard to do.
Read starting on page 33 of the manual as to how to connect your printer to your router. Basically, you will connect it to your router via the front of the printer (Wireless Setup Wizard), then load the software on your PC's (from here) following instructions for a "Through the Network" installation.
