Want to restore Apple - Mac OS X icon to Dock

I accidentally dragged the Apple - OS X icon off the dock, so it went poof and disappeared. In order to put it back, I assume I just drag something to the dock, but I don't know where to find that item. How do I put it back? This is the thing that looks like an @ on top of a spring, on the right side of the divider. Thanks!

Hi Chris,
All you have to do is go to the website and then highlight the url in the address bar and drag it down to the dock and your link will reappear.
Not sure what page it linked to though - I assume this one:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/
If not, maybe somebody can correct me.

    Load http://www.apple.com/macosx/ in your browser and drag the little Apple logo next to the address bar to the right side of the Dock.
    This works with any website.

  • Where is my "Apple- Mac OS X" icon?

    I was organizing my dock. Putting various documents into my Documents folder in my dock and somehow, I don't know how, I dragged my "Apple- Mac OS X" icon out of my dock. This icon is silver with a white "@" symbol. Could someone advise me on how to put it back onto my dock? Thanks!

    maddie,
    Just drag the favicon (URL) from this link->http://www.apple.com/downloads/ back to the previous location on your Dock.

  • Apple - Mac OS X icon

    I have this icon named Apple - Mac OS X on my dock. I was just curious about what is its purpose.
    Thanks

    It's a link to the Apple Website. If you drag the icon next to the web address in a browser to the right side of the dock, it creates the same sort of shortcut.

  • Getting out of disk utility when you want to restore your Mac???

    I wanted to restore my Macbook Pro early 2011, so I shut down my computer then turned it on and held down option. I got to the disk utility app but now I'm having second thoughts about restoring it. I can't get out of disk utility and get back to my homescreen... Any help? It's been irritating me a lot.

    If you've erased everything, then you need to reinstall OS X:
    Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • I want to restore my Mac BookAir to bran new

    i would really like to erase it all and start again... what must i do...

    First, if you want to save anything on your hard drive, back it up, as otherwise everything will be erased.
    You want to use the software reinstall drive that came with your system.  Attach the drive and boot holding the alt/option key, choose the OS X drive to boot from. Then follow directions here and here to do an erase and install. 

  • I just restore my Mac, and now instead the dock icon I have question marks.

    The only icons I have are: finder, documents and downloads.
    I also used to have parallels and now I don't.

    Drag off the ?'s and let go, (poofy) and just drag and drop into the Dock new copies from the original applications icons in your applicaiotns folder to make new aliases.

  • Remove "apple -mac os x" url from dock

    How do I do it? There has to be a way. I already have the shortcut in Safari I don't need it in the dock.

    Dude! You surely am JAM'N! with that rapid answer!
    But it won't go for some reason. I did it with a G4 tower that I fresh installed on a new drive the other day but for some reason I can't get it to go to the trash on this little iBook. I did choose to customize the install by declining to install all the languages and asian fonts, etc. if that makes a difference.

  • I want to restore to 2013 on mac 10.5.8

    My system has somehow lost all information and i want to restore my MAC 10.5.8 to 2013 how do I do this without the original start up disc

    There is a lot of confusion here as to what you really want.
    No 2013 Mac can run 10.5.8.
    Niel's advice about 10.6.8 should not ever be mentioned for any PowerMac, if that's what you have, since PowerMacs won't run 10.6.8.  The latest they will run is 10.5.8, although the Intel Macs could run 10.5.8 if they are older than August 28, 2009.
    PowerMacs were last on the scene in early 2006.
    10.5.8 was last new before August 28, 2009.
    10.8.5, if you switched the numbers was the operating system from September 12, 2013.   
    Use this tip to identify your Mac:
    http://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-6413
    Only Macs older than July 20, 2011 came with pre bundled discs (the exception is Macs whose model was not refreshed until later, such as the October 24, 2011 MacBook Pro).   Others require an internet restore.
    Note: Classic refers to the virtualized operating system for PowerMacs available under Mac OS 10.4.11 or earlier for Mac OS 9 from 2001 or earlier.

  • How to find and install icon in dock for access to Apple Mac OSX?

    Just next to my downloads and document stacks I had an icon Apple Mac OS X icon that when clicked automatically transferred me to Snow Leopard site at Apple. By mistake I removed it from dock but now I can't find this icon to re-install it. I looked in applications folder but not there. Anyone know where I can find it to re-install it in dock?
    Thanks

    Go to Apple Mac OS X with Safari and drag the icon next to "http" from the address to the right side of the dock.

  • Apple - Mac OS X Location ?

    I trashed the "Apple - Mac OS X" icon that was next to the Trashcan in the Dock.
    Now I want it back so that I can get the Leopard Sneak Peek.
    Where is it located so that I can get it back in the Dock ?

    That icon is a weblink. The one in the Dock just links to Apple's main page.
    You can add any web site to the Dock by dragging the icon next to the address from your web browser to the Dock.

  • I want to restore my new macbook pro to factory settings

    I just bought a new 13 inch Macbook pro mid 2012 it shipped with Lion so I updated to Mountain Lion but like two weeks later it started to run slow, I want to restore my Mac to factory settings. I have been searching how to do it but everyone say that i need a cd but I dont have any cd.       

    turn your computer on while holding down the command + r keys - release the keys once you see the apple logo and once you get to the disk utility menu - erase your macbook and reinstall your OS - i think because you upgraded to Mountain Lion - your recovery partition will also be Mountain Lion - try doing a clean install of ML and see if the issues you're having are gone when you do a clean install.
    if you're still not happy with the way Mountain Lion performs in your macbook, then you have to do a Internet Recovery to get Lion reinstalled.
    good luck

  • Will all the partitions be deleted if I restore my mac

    I bought my Macbook Pro preinstalled with Lion (10.7). I've later uograded to 10.8. Now due to some problems I want to restore my Mac using the recovery tool. But before that I've partitioned  my hard disk and copied my files to these partitions. If I restore my Mac will the files on all these partitions be deleted or just the files in the partition in which OS X exists are deleted? Moreover after partition will I be left with 10.8 or 10.7?

    No, nothing will be deleted except the partition you install on.
    EDIT: But never do anything w/o a backup.
