How to see hidden apps in Mission Control

In Exposé in Snow Leopard at the low part of the screen, I could see all my hidden apps. In Mission Contrtol (Lion) I don't get to see the hidden apps. I've gone through all the system preferences and I did not see anything to be able to active it, I mean, to be able to see my hidden apps when I launch Mission Control.
Has anyone already solved this issue somehow?
Thanks a lot.
Regards.

YES . you get it.
Not thing to apologize. you don;t do anything wrong. sorry about my word i'm not good in english.
it call Minimize windows
by your answer that is ok. The window will go to stay on Dock by click in  >System Preference >Dock > Uncheck Minimize windows into application.
but someone (me and topick owner Jmayorperes) we check in minimize window to application icon . because i want a static Dock . dont want many icon on Dock when i minimize.
and old style expose is allow me to see all active window and all minimize windows in same place. by move mouse to hot corner .
But Lion if you want to see  Minimize window you must >>>  .. hold click to icon and select > show all window .. That's it.   http://postimage.org/image/2wd9ly7no/
but i think 1-2 second difference not good .
That why we try to get it back . it just change by apple. maybe it good for people who use touchpad or andything i don't know.
but for me it difference. and have to change behavior hope it come back in next update
Thanks you AMMOCAN

  • Does anyone know how to see what apps are still open on lion? On snow leopard you just had to slide three fingers side ways I believe thanks

    Anyone know how to see what apps are still open on lion?

    If you do not have the light in dock active, activate it, or slide three finger up to open Mission Control or in Force qQuit all  open programs are listed (even the hidden ones).
    Hope that helps..

  • Dropping files to fullscreen apps through mission control results in app folder opening and in some sort of task switching madness

    In Snow Leopard I got used to attach documents in mails by dragging and dropping files from the desktop to the message window. To do so  I used active corners (spaces, exposé). Now, with Mission Control in Lion I've tried to keep that workflow but this leads me to an awkward problem. To reproduce it in my computer I do the following:
    Pick up a file from the desktop --> drag it to lower right corner (opens mission control) --> drag it to full screen mail space, press space to switch (applications folder opens inside mission control), and a lot of apps too (those the cursor hovered).
    At the same time, mail full screen window opens (as waiting time selected in finder preferences for triggering is short), then Lion turns crazy entering in some sort of spasmodic task switching mode, which lasts after I find some clear space to drag the file back in the desktop.
    Did any other user  experience something similar? Is there something I could do to help to fix the problem?
    Thanks for you answers.
    [Edit: Ok, so I started trying with other apps and it turns that every time I drag and drop any file to a fullscreen app in mission control and use the space key to open it, I get a similar behavior. I did it in Scrivener and it resulted in photoshop and itunes opening,  Scrivener vanished and but left an empty (like dashboard's) desktop.]

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    >>Running bootcamped Win7, yes power consumption is more, a lot more,....indications are no.
    Sorry, can you clarify on this one - do you mean the power consumption is more DURING the use of Windows, or ALL of the time (even when using the Mac as normal with OSX).... also what did you mean by indications?
    >>From the parameters of what you say your use would be, Id recommend the I5 with 8gig of ram. the 12 hour >>batt. life is only rated for the 13" on the I5, ....not the I7.   
    Sounds like my first guess was about right - and good point about the battery life - as that is something that's quite important to me!
    >>The "switch" is extremely easy. Ive seen grandmothers switch to a MAC and have its 'everyday use' >>conquered in under a week. So, you should have no worries, its extremely user friendly, no worries of virus, >>etc.
    Glad to hear I've done more research and already seen a few features I can see myself preferring a lot more to the Windows system!
    >>As a former computer repairman, Ive owned nearly 200 diff. laptops (many were free, or Franken-computers >>built from parts) and I can honestly say the Macbook AIR is the finest piece of beloved hardware Ive ever >>owned by a mile.
    >>Many people incorrectly see the THIN nature of the Air and incorrectly conjecture its "less than" a full laptop, >>but the contrary is the case.
    Nah, I don't associate size with performance - especially these days, everything is getting smaller. My concerns are really just about whether to upgrade for extra performance, and using the OS - once I have those nailed I am pretty cofident the hardware will perform well.
    >>Additionally the AIR is the only Mac that has 802AC wifi, new Haswell cool-running processor, and extremely >>long 12 Hr. batt life on the I5 13" configuration.
    Yeah that battery life is one of the big sellers
    Cheers for the tips,

    how to see hidden files in folders

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You can't see by default hidden files through Finder. However, you can do it with a command that you can copy in Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities). Open this application and type:
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE && killall Finder
    After doing it, you will be able to see hidden files through Finder in all the volumes connected to the MacBook Pro

  • How are desktops (spaces) renamed in Mission Control?

    How are desktops (spaces) renamed in Mission Control?

    Naming in Spaces is a bit odd. If you create desktop spaces they are named Desktop 1 etc. If you put a program into fullscreen mode and go to Mission Control that program will appear under its name....as long as its just the one Window. But, if you have two different Safari windows - say one at Apple and one at Google - and put both of them into fullscreen mode when you go into Mission Control they now appear with the name of the document. Grrrr.

  • How to see Downloaded Apps?

    How to see Downloaded Apps?

    Thanks for the reply KiltedTIm.
    Is there a way to view what was automatically downloaded on his device?
    Is there an easy way to convert the items that were downloaded to his own ID when he gets one?  If not, can he still use the apps that were downloaded using my Apple ID?
    Thanks so much!

  • Yahoo Finance app in Mission Control is not downloading/retrieving data.  What do I need to do?  Apple store computers have same app and are working fine.

    The Yahoo Finance app in Mission Control is not retrieving info concerning stocks prices.  It will go to the Yahoo Finance page.  I went to the Apple Store and this app appears to be working just fine on their new computers
    .  What could be the problem?

    MacBook Pro and Mac Pro are not the same machine.   The MacBook Pro is a notebook, and the Mac Pro is a desktop.   Regardless, the question you have pertains more to Quicktime or iMovie, as both those are video importing applications.     Do you wish me to ask a moderator to redirect your question to either forum?
    There are forums for each.
    One application I found is great for importing non-Apple compatible video formats is http://www.etinysoft.com/total-video-converter-hd.html though you may need to get a Flash Card reader that supports your camera's flash card on a Mac to import the video.

  • How to maintain order of Full Screen and non Full Screen apps in Mission Control

    Hey guys, so i've gotten used to Full Screen Apps now, but as a power user who was used to Spaces, I like my windows to be in a specific order. 10.7.2 was great in that we can now re-arrange our screens in Mission Control, however, as soon as I do a restart, Lion reverts to having desktops on the left, and full screen apps on the right (i.e., it doesn't keep the order in which I left them before the restart). Now this really bugs me because by using the swipe feature, I want to know EXACTLY what app is to the left or right of me, as opposed to just turning on the "Order screens by most recent use" option, which I find to be too chaotic and unorganized. Has anyone figured out a way to do this? Below of pics of how I would like Mission Control to look like, and how it looks like after a restart.
    How I'd like for Mission Control to look like: (Desktops and Full Screen Apps intermingling)
    How Lion re-arranges Mission Control after a restart: (Full Screen Apps to the right)

    Shift-CMD-F toggles full screen off and on in Fx. Also, if you've put the Full Screen icon in the Firefox Toolbar, bring the mouse cursor up to the top of the screen. This will reveal the toolbar and you can click on the icon to return to normal.
    Get the icon from View>Toolbars>Customize. Drag it into the Toolbar somewhere.

  • Can't See All Windows in Mission Control

    My favorite feature on the mac has always been the ability to see all open windows with a simple click (F3 on my keyboard). I often have multiple word documents and multiple pdf files open, as well as two or three different browser windows, several image files, and who knows what else. It is very common for me to have 10-20 open windows and it was always a huge help to be able to see them all at once, with filenames that would pop up when hovering with the mouse. This feature made it incredibly easy to move from file to file and truly see everything on the desktop at once.
    As far as I can tell, this is no longer possible with Lion and Mission Control. Now if I have multiple windows open in a single application and enter Mission Control I see them tiled over one another, without filenames displayed for any. Sure, I can see all the applications I have open, but what good is that if I can't see which files I have? It's making it very difficult to work effectively-- basically I have to minimize each window one by one until I find the one I want.
    Am I missing something? Can anyone using Lion tell me how to see a graphic representation of ALL open windows, with filenames? Like I could in the good old days? Or is there something like a "see all open files" ability in Finder?
    Thanks!

    I know what you mean - it was nice to see all the windows.
    Tell Apple here:  Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback
    To mitigate this problem there is "App expose" which lets you see all open windows for any given application.
    And, in Mission Control you can spread a given application's windows a little further apart or you can preview any given window within Mission Control.
    How you do all that stuff depends on how you've configured mouse, keyboard and trackpad. For example, on my trackpad, to spread MC windows a bit I slide two fingers up (with cursor over the group of windows). To preview a given window, I put the cursor over the window and hit the space bar. For me, App expose can be activated by 4 fingers down for the frontmost app, and four fingers down with the cursor over the chosen app in the dock.

  • Minimized apps in Mission Control

    I've noticed a difference in Mission Control over Exposé, and I wanted to check it isn't just me.
    In SL, windows from any apps that are minimized to the Dock show up as small thumbs at the bottom of the screen.
    In Lion, this doesn't seem to be happening. In the example below, there is an iCal window minimized on the desktop; you can just see it above the Trash.
    Has anyone else seen this, or is it just another way that MC is different? (The white window visible in the Desktop thumb at the top is Grab's timer screen)

    Yes, I completely agree. I can't see how to see minimized programs in MC either and it is extremely annoying.
    Another annoyance is programs appear in different places from one use of Mission Control to another a few seconds later.

  • Can't see multiple spaces from mission control

    I have six spaces open, but when I enter mission control, I don't see the 6 windows up top; they are invisible. If I click in the general location I'll get to the space, but I can't see any images of the six spaces which are peppered with apps. Its blank up top. Need a fix. Thanks

    Exact same problem. Had this on my Macbook Pro and then my iMac. On the iMac I only get the 'correct' Mission Control display on a screen that is not 'desktop 1'.
    But the Macbook Pro refuses to show it all. I get the same response as the poster above - invisible thumbnails that work when clicked.
    Any help would be great.

  • How do I add spaces in mission control in mountain lion?

    I use an external monitor on the right side of my mbp, the external monitor (when in use) is my main screen. I want my (auto retracting) dock on the right side of my right screen (the external one). The top right corner is my hot corner for mission control.
    With this setup, when I move my mouse to the right top corner I'll enter mission control, but somehow the "add a new space pop-up button" will not show up. I haven't tried this setup in Lion so I do not know if this is a bug for ML. I really like my dock on the right side of the screen, left is no option and I'm sick of having it at the bottom, but I do want to be able to add spaces, any thoughts how to do this?

    multiple ways,
    go to mission control and:
    hold option, a half of a desktop with a plus will appear, click it.
    drag an application's window next to the spaces there are already.
    put an app in fullsreen mode.
    move mouse over the top left side of the screen, and the desktop with the plus sign will appear to add a new space.

  • App Exposè & Mission Control

    Is there a way to view the minimized windows/apps with App Exposè or Mission Control without being on the same type of window? For example, if I have 2 safari windows opened and one minimized, I am able to see all the windows with the App Exposè gesture, including the minimized one. BUT if I have a different type of window (iTunes) minimized as well, I’m unable to see the iTunes window.

    Not sure if this will help:
