How to get my downloads stack back on to the dock?

I just removed the downloads stack off my dock. I tried getting it back by dragging the downloads folder from finder back on to the dock but it didnt put it back as a stack, instead it opens with a black box that all my recent downloads are in. So how do i get the ORIGINAL downloads stack back on to my dock? (If i makes any different im using lion)

Click on the folder in the dock while holding down the control key. Select stack.

How can I get my downloads folder to appear in the docking station

How can I get the download folder to remain on the docking station

Note if you don't have any folders on your Dock, note the trashcan is on one side of the dock with a divider between it and applications. Minimized windows (with the yellow button on the upper left corner) will go between the trash and that divider. You can drag folders into the section between the minimized windows and the trash.

HT3680 How to get my free space back after quitting the disk utility's erase free space

Hi,
I started the DU's erase free space--fastest way method. When it almost completed, I had a pop up that said that I need to free up disk space.
So then i was flustered enought to just quit the program because I didnt want to free up disk space and I was frustrated.
Not knowing it would still keep whatever it was that took the remaning disk space on my Mac.
How to I get this removed so I am back to before?

Sorry I don't really understand.... there are no partitions on the drive. How do I repartition it?
And should I use "erasing free space" or "erase" for wiping clean my drive of everything? Erase seems to be faster last tiem I tried.
Thanks!

How to get itunes downloaded on my computer. The Download button doesn't work for me.

I seem to be unable to download the latest version of itunes. What can I do to fix this?

I've been trying to organize all my music, making
sure artist and album are filled in, everything
spelled correctly. I'm not able to change some
things because iTunes can't locate the file on my
computer. So is there a way for iTunes to search my
entire computer for every music file and import
everything it finds? This would make my life so much
easier since I have music scattered all over in
places I can't even remember.
Under Advanced menu click on Consolidate library...
I'm trying to add album artwork as well. How come
some say "Album Artwork Not Modifiable"?
Is there a way to make it so if I delete a song from
iTunes, it goes to the Recycle Bin? I have a lot of
duplicates. I don't want them taking up space on my
computer.
IF you delete it from Music (eg library) it goes to recycle bin (iTunes asks you if you want this...). YOu still have to empty the Recyle Bin to have it be totally gone.

What can I do to get Downloads Stacks back?

I searched Stars & Stripes archives that downloaded every paper I searched, computer started running VERY slow, so I moved the downloads to trash & "emptied". Somehow, the "download" file or folder itself got into the trash... now I don't have my download stacks, just a file icon with a "?" symbol... so I removed that from dock as it just isn't there anymore. Would like to get my download stack back??? I have a stock 13" pro that I got in Sept., it says "early 2011", Lion 10.7.2 Not real happy with my abilities on this puppy, it replaces an old tiger desktop, but I don't seem to have much luck with the finger pad thingy and it seems to do a lot of stuff I'm not wanting it to do, or realizing is being done... New 'puter doesn't come with any reinstall disks like old one did, so have I lost permanently my "Downloads" file/folder/stack... or is there some way I can get that back? Thanks

Do you have a picture of a disc drive (metal box looking item that may say Macintosh HD) on your desktop in the upper right corner?
If so, double click it and you should get a screen similar to mine as posted below.
Double click on the Users folder (the one with the silouhette on it).
You should now see something similar to this screen (the house should be back!)
Double click on the house and look for the Downloads folder (circle with the arrow and Mac on it).
Let me know if you have made it this far.
Note: To make a screenshot you should use the Apple tools. Press Shift-Command-3 and then look for a file named Screenshot (date) at (time). Use the Apple Camera button and choose the first option. It will ask you where the file is on your computer. Select it and it should upload without the ?

How to get my purchase history back?

Hi,
I suspect the merge between Nokia Dev and Ovi accounts to have deleted all my purchase history. The last 9th of september, I purchased Billboard for my N9. So, it was less than a year before, it should be still valid and I should still be able to download the app.
How to get this purchase information back? Of course I kept the email this the purchase order.
Thanks.

@Farby: You're right. I marked it as solved because it seems a valid answer. But then I checked my purchase order and saw it is less than 12 months old. Of course, I should have checked before asking.
@yasfer21: completely forgot the differences between the accounts, and the previous logins.
So, my question still remains. Is there an email address I can contact to get my purchase back? Another way? Thanks.

I imported different trips to different catalogs on different external hard drives. Later renamed external HDs. I want to combine catalogs and have my source (NEF) files all together on one drive. I'm not really sure how to get those source files back

I imported different trips to different catalogs on different external hard drives. Later renamed external HDs. I want to combine catalogs and have my source (NEF) files all together on one drive. I’m not really sure how to get those source files back and get rid of the extra long path to where the source files are now located. If I re-link files to their current catalog (many different paths to files in same catalog) can I merge (import catalogs) into one master catalog? Will the new (Master catalog) have the correct link to the source file? If not, how or can this be done?
I have tried to explain my situation as clearly as I can. Do you understand my situation?
This maybe something you don’t have time to help me with. If not can you suggest somewhere I can get an answer? I really need help. PLEEEZZZ HELP ME.

Is there any solution (other than buying
I really think 'buying' is the best solution on this one. Ideally, you would have at least five internal hard drives.
System
Projects
Cache/Scratch
Media
Exports
Use externals and network drive only for backup.

Not true at all.
You only buy the right to your own personal use.
You do NOT have the right to distribute to others.
This is illegal. There is no doubt about it

How to get photos from iPhoto back onto a SD card. I have a MacBook Pro with built in SD card slot. I have tried "Export" but this does not work.

It's best to export the photos to a folder and then drag the folder onto the memory card. Memory cards are usually formatted for PCs, FAT 32, which doesn't permit more than a limited number of files in the root directory. Putting the photos in a folder gets around that limitation.

Hi out there. To capture a screen shot one uses: Command-Shift-3 or 4. I have done this for a long time. Now suddenly neither screen shot works anymore. Suggestions how to get this useful function back? Thanks, Georgx

Command-Shift-3 and 4 works just fine on several Macs that I have here.
Try restarting your Mac....or post in the specific support area for your Mac model....for more advice.
