Only opens in desktop 1 in mission control

on my mac, no matter how i install FF, it will only open in Desktop 1 of Mission Control. I like to organize my windows and all other applications open in whatever desktop is active at that moment. FF doesn't do that, it goes back to desktop 1

This does not happen here (I'm running KDE, I don't know about you).

    I can't open new desktop from mission control if dock is on the right side

    I recently moved my dock to the right so I didn't know the + sign would switch sides. I normally run around that many too depending on how large of a stack whatever I am programming is using.

    Take the MBP to an Apple store genius bar and have them evaluate it.  This is a free service.  They may tell you what needs to be fixed and the associated costs.  You are no obligated to to have them perform the repairs.  But you will have a better understanding of the problem(s).

  • How to get Outlook to appear in only one desktop in mission control?

  • "Bind" an application to desktop in Mission Control

    I can't figure out how to "bind" an application to a specific desktop in Mission Control, like you could with Spaces. Anyone figure it out? I read that we're able to, I just don't know how. Help, please!

    Assigning the desktop only seems to work for me for a particular document or session. Or perhaps some applications are not recognizing the setting properly. For instance, if I assign Pages to "This Desktop" whatever that may be, it only seems to apply to that particular document. If I open a Pages document from within Mail, that document will open in the same space as Mail instead of switching to whatever desktop I had previously assigned.
    Similarly, if I set Pages to Full Screen, that applies only to that one document, and future documents won't group into a Pages full-screen Space.
    Maybe I just don't understand this fully yet, but I'm a bit disoriented.

  • How do I get an App to display on all desktops in Mission Control?

    How do I get an App to display on all desktops in Mission Control?
    I tried:
    Right-Click on the icon in the Dock
    Options -> All Desktops
    This doesn't work.
    The App was created using REALStudio.  Does this have any bearing on the issue?
    SyB

    Hi, if the App is in the Dock, right click, choose Options>Open at login.
    Or System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window, drag the App there or click on the tiny plus icon to add it.

  • Desktop 1 Mission Control Application Windows

    I recently upgraded to OSX Mountain Lion. The upgrade went perfect on my MacBook Pro. Here are my system specs:
    15-inch, 2.53GHz, Mid 2009
    Processor  2.53 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
    Memory  8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
    Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB
    I noticed a strange behavior with Desktop 1 when I go to Mission Control. No matter if I open Mission Control *from* Desktop 1, or I move to Desktop 1 from another Desktop in Mission Control, the Application Windows that are open on Desktop 1 do not display.
    Notice that the App Icons are displayed, but no Windows.
    NO OTHER DESKTOP displays this behavior. Any ideas? Is there a cache I can delete to reset the Desktop/Mission Control?
    Thanks!

    Note that this issue occured right after an OSX update, but was fixed after a reboot.

  • Trackpad is presenting a bug to open and close windows, mission control, and to move/roll the application (App) up and down.

    Totally out of the blue, my trackpad is presenting a "bug". Every time that I try to open and close my mission control, or in the moments that I move / roll up and downs the Applications Screen, my Mac freezes for less than a second.
    It never suffered any damage (NEVER!)! I am feeling very frustrated because I have no idea about what could cause such problem.
    My MacBook Air is running OS X 10.9.5.
    Any help will be very welcome!

    Well, it all really depends on the custom program and how it was written. Does it have an ActiveX interface? If it does, than that's the easiest way to go. If you put an automation refnum on the fron panel, you can right click and it and choose Select ActiveX Class>Browse. The browser will list all of the ActiveX type libraries that are registered on your system. If you can find one that refers to your custom program, then you should be able to use it's methods and properties to control. If it does not have an ActiveX interface, then things get much more difficult.

  • Screen of my desktop hangs when switching to other desktop or mission control

  • Krusader only opens in desktop 1

    as mentioned in the subject line, krusader will only open in desktop 1.  i would execute it in desktop 4, but it will open in desktop 1.  my first thought was that it may have been a command option that was being added to the kmenu entry.  so i ran it from the run dialog and a terminal window, and the same thing happened.  it works, however, once it has been opened once.  once it's sitting open in desktop 1, it will open a second or third time wherever it's called for.  i'm not sure what creates this preference.  if anyone has any insight about this behaviour of krusader, it would be much appreciated if a solution is found.  thank you in advance.

    This does not happen here (I'm running KDE, I don't know about you).

  • Safari window opens automatically on every new desktop in Mission Control.

    In mission control, when I swipe to a different desktop, Safari follows and automatically opens on that new desktop. How do I stop this? This does not happen if safari is in full window mode. I have reset Safari to no avail, and I have opened Safari with the shift key but neither action gets rid of this problem.

    Ah, I figured it out. Right click on Safri icon in tray, choose options and Click "none" instead of "every desktop". That was well hidden!

  • Assigning Dock items to multi screen desktops on Mission Control (ML)

    Right so I've recently bought a new rMBP.  I use it both in my studio where I hook it up to a Samsung external monitor which works fine, and outside in various offices and other locations.
    On my previous MBP, which was running Snow Leopard, I used Spaces extensively across a variety of different apps/programmes.  I've started to use Mission Control, as a replacement of Spaces.  My only issue with it is when I connect it to my external monitor, I'd like to assign apps not just to specific desktops but also to specific screens within that 'mission control desktop'.
    Eg. On spaces, I had Mail and Calendar assigned to one Space.  When connected to external monitor, I would move mail onto the external display and keep calendar on the laptop screen, so could effectively view both full screen on two different displays.  These settings seemed to stick when I turned the laptop off, or disconnected and reconnected it to the external screen.  With Mission Control however, it never sticks.  If the laptop goes off, disconnects from the screen, or even logs out, the mail and calendar app will be in the same 'Desktop', but they won't assign to the specific screens I want them to, and will just revert to the primary display 'Desktop', meaning I have to move the apps all over again across all my different Mission Control Desktops.
    Is there a way to 'assign to this desktop' when working dual screen that sticks? Hope that makes sense. I've had a look throughout the support pages but haven't come across anyone with the same problem yet...

  • How can I switch the first desktop in Mission Control?

    I can switch between all others just fine. I've messed around with Mission Control in System Preferences but I haven't found anything useful. Right now if I want to switch say the first and second desktop, I have to...
    enter mission control
    drag app A from desktop 1 to desktop 2
    enter mission control
    drag app B from desktop 2 to desktop 1
    enter mission control
    drag app C from desktop 1 to desktop 2
    Which is extremely frustrating.

    I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are trying to do because the dragging applications around is making me unsure. I'll give you some information and maybe that will help me help you.
    You don't have to go to Mission Control and move applications to change desktops. Three ways to navigate between desktops:
    1. Hold down the control key and use the left/right arrows to change desktops.
    2. Open Mission Control and click on the desktop you want to have showing.
    3. Go to System Preferences/Keyboard, unlock if locked and select Mission Control. Check the boxes "Switch to Desktop X."
    Two other possibilities I can think of:
    1. Do you want to assign applications to a certain desktop?
    2. Do you want the desktops to always be in the same order?

  • Rename desktop in mission control

    I am hoping there is a way to rename desktop spaces in Mission Control.  Is there anyway to highlight "Desktop 1, Desktop 2, etc" and change the names to "Editing, Browsing, etc?"

    Does anyone know if this is something that might be made available in a later OS update? Or is there a process to follow to request such a feature formally with Apple?
    This seems to be an incredibly basic requirement for desktop management, and as a brand new Mac user, I'm astonished that these types of features seem to be missing from so useful and friendly a management system!
    I've written a couple of desktop managers myself (in Windows, hoick-ptui ) and one of the first things I was asked by users was to enable personalisation of all spaces.
    Fingers crossed, this will be something to appear in the very near future...
