Jun 24, 2009You know how there is a blue dot underneath an application's icon in the dock representing that the application is running? Is there a way to change this to another color? I don't see any option for it, so I think it's unlikely that it can be changed but if it can I'd appreciate being told how to change it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Can Hide An Open Application's Icon From The Dock
Jul 13, 2010To the point... I use TimeOut to remind me to get up and move, while I am on my computer. It is a handy app that will make the screen go blank for how ever long I set my breaks to last.
The thing is... I don't need the application icon to sit in my Dock taking up space telling me the application is open. I know it is open since it tells me to get up and stretch every 20 minutes by blanking my screen.
So, is there any way to take the application's icon off the Dock while still leaving it open?

OS X Mavericks :: Icon Hidden Behind Application Icon On Dock
Aug 31, 2014I have this icon behind the Application icon on the dock and I cannot figure out what it is. It is not something on the desktop as I have moved the dock and can't see it, so it is definitely connected with the Application icon. I have deleted all downloads which could have been half done and I have removed an Alias I had in the Application folder. Now all the Applications appears as "Applications" in the "Kind" column when viewing in Finder.

MacBook Pro :: Every Time Open A Page Advertisement For Mackeeper Appears On Screen
Sep 7, 2014Everytime I open a page, an advertisement for Mackeeper appears on my screen. I also get a lot of other advertising (cinechest for example).
