How to move a window to another, existing space that already has windows

NOT happy with the new Mission Control.  Give me back spaces!
I have been using virtual desktops (VDT) for years and I often work 14 to 18 hours a day on my mac.. 
I can reorder my spaces in MC but that seems to be about all I can do and it really is ******* me off.
I need to be able to drag a single window from 1 space to another space where I already have another application running. This was TRIVIAL in SPACES but seems impossible in MC.
example:  I have a text file of notes in vi in one VDT and in another I have a browser window open to a customer location where I need to use or add to those notes with some complexity. I want to move that notes window from the VDT that it is in (because there are other apps there) to the current VDT so that I can easily use the notes and the browser together. I do NOT want to have to make the stupid vi window in ALL spaces. How do I do this?
another example: I have a browser with multiple tabs and I want to move ONE of them to another VDT. I can pull the tab to make another window.. But I can't move just that tab to another VDT!! How can I do that?
Please please PLEASE fix this in Mountain Lion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have to start from the Desktop where the window is currently living to move it to another Desktop.
If you are using Safari in Full Screen, that screen is its own desktop and can't be moved to another desktop. If you are not in Full screen, go to the desktop that hosts the window and drag it to another Desktop in MC.

  • How can you install FCS 3 on a computer that already has FCPX?

    Ok so, I wiped my computer to install Lion, and then installed FCP X. I now want to install Final Cut Studio 3, but it won't let me install Final Cut, Motion, or Compressor (the other apps install fine). Presumably this is because I have downloaded the new versions of those respective apps from the app store.
    I know you can install FCP X on a computer with FCS3 on it (and still be able to use both versions of FCP) but can you do the opposite? If so I haven't found out how (short of installing on a different disk/partition of course). I tried moving FCPX out of the applications folder (in hopes that it was as simple as the installer checks the apps folder first for another copy of Final Cut) but that simply moved an alias and as far as I can tell, FCPX cannot be moved out of the applications folder.
    Anyone have any ideas or experienced something similar?
    Thanks!

    Hey Brad thanks, but the link you provided is the opposite of what I need. That link is for if you want to install FCPX on a system with FCS 3 already on it. I have FCP X already installed and need to install FCS 3 on the same drive.
    I cannot move the FCPX, Motion 5, or Compressor 4 applications to a new folder, because when I do it only moves an alias over for some reason (not the actual application).
    @Ronnie yes I know I can install another copy of OSX on another drive/partition and install FCS 3 on that, but I am trying to not have to do that. Clearly FCPX and FCS 3 can exist on the same partition if you install FCS 3 first, so why can't I do it if I already have FCPX installed? Seems silly. I also do not want to have to reboot each time I want to go into FCS3, not to mention all of the disk space I would lose by installing the OS on one of my other internal drive (which currently are all filled with Media drives, so I would have to repartition a sizable chunk of one of them just for FC Studio).

  • [Solved] Installing on a hd that already has windows 7 and sabayon

    currently it looks like this:
    /dev/sda1 ntfs systerm reserved 100mb
    /dev/sda2 ntfs 40gb (windows 7 installed)
    /dev/sda3 ext4 / / 40gb (sabayon)
    /dev/sda4 extended 218.93gb
    /dev/sda5 linuxswap 2gb
    /dev/sda6 ntfs storage 216.93gb
    I tired to install archlinux with just a / partition and tried to reuse my swap....... failed miserably
    after that I recreated my ntfs partition and tinkered with arch in virtual box till I got a little comfortable working with it.
    Now I want to delete my sda6 partition and repartition for arch.
    would I need to make like:
    sda6: /boot (bootable)
    then sda7 /root
    and sda8 /home ????
    Im not sure what I need to do...... because I should be able to use my grub I already have and just re autodetect........ should see arch after its installed I would think
    in sabayon I would use:
    grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
    grub2-install /dev/sda
    would love to get it running on its own instead of having to use virtual box.
    I tried to look around and didnt find much info on what I was looking for.
    thanks.

  • How do i put a shuffle on a computer that already has an ipod

    i have plugged the shuffle in. the taskbar recognizes there is new hardware but i tunes hasnt recognized it yet.
    also, how do i put a playlist i have created for the shuffle on it?

    Keith. I'm sorry to say this but you need to search. This question has been asked a million times before.
    You CANNOT DIRECTLY put a dvd on your computer. you need a software that will "rip" the DVD (DVD Decrypter) to your computer, and then the ripped file will need to be encoded (Videora IPOD Converter) so that you can then add it to the itunes library and then to your IPOD.
    There are already several threads on how to use those programs already in this forums. If you have any more questions though, please go to their respective sites.

  • How to move a selection into another selection in elements 12

    how to move a selection into another selection in elements 12

    Open picture B, the one you wish to select something from to add to another picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the object. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position object from picture B.
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and object B on a separate layer

  • How can I use my ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections.    The apple store clerk told me that I can't use airport express unless I also have a computer with me in the hotel.

    How can I use my Ipad in a hotel that only has ethernet connections?  The Apple store clerk told me that travel express won't work in my hotel unless I also have a computer.

    The issue with the Airport Express (or any of the Apple routers) is that you need the Airport Utility to configure it.  Airport Utility works on OSX and Windows, but not on the iPad (or iPhone or iPod Touch.)  It will work, if you can preconfigure the Airport correctly ahead of time, but you'd be stuck if you did need to reconfigure while at the hotel.
    You can use most any other router that is configured with a web page, which means you have a chance of configuring with Safari on the iPad.  If you want something somewhat portable, I use a "travel router" made by D-Link. The current model is the DAP-1350.  Other companies make similar travel routers, but I have no experience with the others.

  • How can I get the amount of free space that is on my drive to show at the bottom of the drive in Lion.

    How can I get the amount of free space that is on my drive to show at the bottom of the drive in Lion.
    This is a must feature for me and I may have to go back to Snow Leopard.
    Please help!

    Right click on your desktop and choose "viewer options". Adjust the spacing and the size of your icons and you should be able to see the size of your drive(s) and the free space available on each drive with the exception of your bootcamp drive which will only show the overall size of the drive you have it on.  This may be different if you only have one system drive (like on a Mac Book Pro) with a partition containing bootcamp on it. this may only show you the overall capacity, I can't say for sure though as I only use a Mac Pro with 4 seperate Hard Drives which are showing both overall capacity and free space available. Hope this helps

  • How can I add the Blackberry my friend gave me to my account that already has my prepaid phone on it?

    How can I add the Blackberry my friend gave me to my account that already has my prepaid phone on it?

    A few questions to clarify your specific situation will help us to better help you...
    Do you want to swap phones and use the BlackBerry instead of your current phone?  I don't think you can add a line to a pre-paid account to use both - it would have to be two separate accounts.
    What model BB is it?  And is it Verizon branded?  It may or may not be usable on a pre-paid account.
    Finally, what is your current phone and account set up?  You may need to get a different pre-paid plan to use the BB, if it is usable on Verizon.

  • Can I put my ipod on a computer that already has another ipod on it without doing any damage?

    My ipod got the message "iTunes has deteced an ipod that appears to be corrupted......"
    I did everything suggested and nothing helped.  My ipod was working perfectly prior to my attaching it to the computer, which itunes didn't recognize.
    I reset everything, the ipod is now empty, and still the computer won't recognize it.
    Can I connect this to another computer that already has an ipod associated with it without causing any problems to the owner's ipod or the music libarary?
    If that computer recognizes the ipod, then my problem lies in my computer and not the ipod.
    Thanks

    It should work because I have 2 iPods connected to my iTunes and everything syncs perfect most of the time and with no corrupted sign, maybe it's your computer. iTunes is'nt the best either so it may also be iTunes that has the problem.

    Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.  If you sync to another, then it will erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.
    Make sure everything is on the new computer.
