Jul 20, 2009Keep a widget active without Dashboard
The Dashboard in OS X is a convenient tool for accessing quick bits of information or using conversion, translation, or reference utilities among many other tools. Depending on the task at hand, sometimes the requirement to activate Dashboard every time you want to access a widget can be cumbersome, especially since the Dashboard prevents access to other applications while it is open. Luckily, however, there is a way around this.
Dashboard supports the use widgets without activating the Dashboard interface, which basically prevents them from being hidden whenever Dashboard is inactivated. This is done by enabling the developer mode for the application, by entering the following command in the Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode YES; killall Dock
After this command is run, the Dock will relaunch and Dashboard will be in "Developer" mode. From here, all widgets will behave the same as usual, except now you can select a specific widget to keep on the Desktop by the following procedure:
1. Activate Dashboard.
2. Click and drag a widget.
3. Deactivate Dashboard (while still dragging).
4. Release the mouse.
This will keep the individual widget active while the rest close with Dashboard, and the widget will be kept above all other running applications. To reverse this for a widgets, do the same process in reverse order as follows:
1. Click and drag the Desktop widget.
2. Activate Dashboard.
3. Release the widget.
4. Deactivate Dashboard.
While this is a convenient trick, keep in mind it will keep the widget active and alive, which in some cases can use up system resources. You can check this by using Activity Monitor.
To deactivate developer mode, run the command in the terminal and replace "YES" with "NO".

OS X :: Unable To Copy Calculation Results / Dashboard's Calculator Widget 10.4
Nov 18, 2010I finally go around to upgrading to 10.5 from 10.4. One thing that struck me was that I could no longer copy to the clipboard the result of the computation in the Dashboard's calculator widget. Something I could do under 10.4
I can paste into it. I can copy/paste/cut in the Stickies application. But I can't copy out of the Calculator.I opened up the .html and .js files for the widget and yes there is a handler for the copy event but its not getting invoked.

OS X :: Creating Dashboard Widgets From Safari Not Working?
Aug 3, 2009I have reset safari and I still cannot create widgets of any kind from Safari 4.0.2. My understanding is that you size the box around something and then go to ADD, whereby it should take you to the dashboard. In my case I hit ADD and it does nothing. I have tried repairing permission, reseting safari, creating a new login and tried Safari from there..

View 1 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Safari Bookmarks Erased - How To Restore
Nov 7, 2010I've been googling answered to solve this problem for hours, even called Microsoft & Apple for help but nothing. I just restarted my computer. Everything was normal. All bookmarks are there, I actually just added another bookmark. So then when the computer comes back on, I open safari & the bookmarks look empty. The only bookmarks are the ones that come with safari (Apple, Yahoo!, Google Maps, YouTube, Wikipedia, News, & Popular). All history is there from this whole week but NO Bookmarks! So I googled how to restore safari bookmarks. they tell me to look for the 'bookmarks.plist' file in safari folder.
I followed plenty of instructions like "File"> "Import Bookmarks" & tried to search for the file in (Users/yourUserName/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist) in safari but I cannot find that safari library folder folder. I tried (CUsersyournameAppDataRoamingApple Computer Safari) but I cant even find the "appdata" folder. So then apple tells me that you can only search for the bookmarks.plist folder on a mac computer. So that means I wasted the whole evening looking for those folders. Now since apple & microsoft basically tell me im on my own. I am becoming really desperate. I have hundreds of very important bookmarks saved that have a bunch of job listings & apartments that I really really need.
