Intel Mac :: With Lion's Multiple Desktops, Have Different Docks?
May 20, 2012
It's great setting up different Desktops, each with different background photos, to separate my apps/uses and feel like I have three or four 27" screens, one for each category of application.What would make it even better, is if the apps that showed up in the dock matched the Desktop I was in, instead of showing the same whole row of apps across the dock, in every screen.Is it possible to set up different Docks to match different Desktops?

I was thinking that Apple should let us have multiple docks that we use in our multiple spaces. So in one "Space" you could have a "work dock" which has all your applications for school or work such as Safari, iWork/MS Office. Then in another "space" you could have a dock for "Play dock" which has iTunes, Safari, iChat, Photo Booth, iLife or any computer games you have on your Mac.

I've been looking for a solution to have more than just the one Dock: I'd like to have one on each monitor with different applications contained in each. I've discovered Dock Spaces which allows you to have upto 10 different Docks. More importantly, it integrates with Spaces to allow you to have a different Dock in each Space. This is the first time I've had a Mac with two monitors connected, and I've never used Spaces before so please bear with me. Would I be able to have Space 1 displayed on the first monitor and Space 2 on the second monitor? If that's possible, I could then use Dock Spaces to have a Dock on each monitor, yes?

This is the scenario...
1) Safari's window is running on Desktop A.
2) There is another Desktop B.
How do I start another Safari window on Desktop B?When I go to Desktop B and start another Safari window, it is opened on the Desktop A. I know I can move it then to Desktop B but that is an extra step.

Trying to set up a second monitor, which I want to use as my "universal communication dashboard" across all of my spaces.In other words, I want to run a bunch of applications there which should appear regardless of which space I'm on. To do this I know that I just right click the application and select "Assign To: All Desktops" but for whatever reason only one of the applications follows me from screen to screen, even if I have all three selected.All three applications are set to start on login.This seems like a blatant bug in Lion and I would love advice on how to fix it, or how to nag Apple until it gets fixed.

After updating to Lion, I set my macbook up with a few different desktops so I could easily swipe between them instead of searching for the windows I needed.I just set up a second monitor to my mac and noticed that anytime I swipe to a different desktop, both monitors change. Is there a way to "freeze" one while the other moves? Or better yet, can I set up my second monitor to only have one desktop while my mac still has 2 or more?

In getting acclimated to the new OS the only thing I struggle with is as a medical sales consultant when I'm working on multiple analysis worksheets and projects I often do a lot of application and file hopping and noticed that gesture wise I can't just toggle like I used to.What I did notice was that I can set up a second "desktop" that when using the 4 finger upstroke would allow me to toggle over and open/view a document or file that is sitting on my desktop..... like a client master file or roster list.

I just heard about leopard docks but can't find the app anywhere and the website seems to be gone. What happened? I'm basically looking for an easy way to change my dock and a few other things. Cant seem to figure it out in candy bar.

I have a document that I downloaded from a website, but the text is very small.I would like to retype it. I need to keep it on screen so I can magnify the letters in Preview. But when I start to type in Word, the document in the space for Preview disappears.I am therefore constantly switcg back and forth. Is there any way I can leave the document open in Preview AND type while I am typing.

Would it be possible to move windows to the "dock bar" when I click on another window? I know it is possible to move it to the docks when we click on the yellow "-" button, but what I want is that it automatically puts itself to the dock when I navigate away from a window. Just like in Windows. Like I want all my windows to be in the docks. It's very annoying having to search for the opened windows.

I have an Intel Imac G5 2.66 gHz 2 core duo running 10.6.3. I am unable to get it shut down or sleep. Choosing either results in the display blacking out, the fans run for about 1 second and then everything come back on as if nothing has happened. I've reset the Pram and Vram, disconnected all USB and Firewire devices, tried it with and without file sharing and Airport operating. A 'hard' shutdown with the power button works fine. I have checked for any firmware updates but mine is fine. This happened once before and clearing out some files from deleted apps cured the problem but it's back now.

I had to reinstall Lion on my Macbook Pro and everything went back to default settings. I have 4 desktops that I use and I used to be able to switch between them by hitting command and an arrow key but now that's not working! I've tried going into keyboard settings under system preferences but that didn't work.

I am trying to use the same folder of picture across all my desktops. It seems that every desktop I have to go in to preferences and click the same thing over and over. Is there a way to do it once and apply it across all desktops?

This is what happens on my computer and I can't seem to get rid of the 'black' desktops with google chrome icon on them. There is no "X" sign to shut them down and as far as I can tell the only thing that works is if I either shut down my computer or quite google chrome which isn't too convenient.Is there another way to 1. prevent these 'black' desktops from apearing and 2. to get rid of them without shuting down the computer or quiting chrome everytime ?

I'm referring to the desktops you can add in mission control. In the dock, when you click on an app and hold it (or right-click) you can go to options and then assign on which desktop this particular app should open. You can choose on all desktops (which will make the app follow you, no matter to which desktop you are switch), you can choose on the desktop you are now on and you can choose none.But how do you choose several desktops? Is that even possible? Because I don't think so.I am using the Logic arrange window and would like to have the Mixer on a different desktop.

Does anyone else have a problem with items getting 'stuck' between desktops so that you can see them as you move between desktops, but can't access them?
I created an e-mail by dragging a photo to the Mail icon in the dock, but nothing happened so I repeated the exercise. Still nothing happened. I then created the e-mail by copying and pasting the photo into a new blank e-mail and thought nothing more about it. But now, when I swipe between desktops, I can see the two e-mails, complete with photos but no text, straddling two desktops but can't click on them to delete them.

Just after my warranty expired I developed what I suspect will be an expensive problem. Upon awakening from sleep my computer cannot recognize the internal HD. I total freeze. If I power down & reboot everything works. If I boot the computer from an external HD clone of my internal HD a can put the computer to sleep and wake up without a problem EXCEPT:When I do this the computer removes the internal HD icon from the desktop and Iget a dialog box informing me that the internal HD was improperly disconnected.

I'm writing this on Windows using Boot Camp on my Macbook.
My Mac does not want to go into Mac OSX 10.5.3
It says various programs did not launch, such as dock, finder, iCal helper, and others. I can only get to the wallpaper, I can't see the menu bar, dock, or icons.
I also don't have a backup
Is there anything I can do?
