Launchpad missing on iMac

Hi guys

I recently installed El Capitan on a new SSD and I noticed the dock on my iMac doesn't have a dashboard, there instead of dash.

Does anyone know why this happened and how can I solve this problem?

My Macbook Pro, which runs also from El Capitan appears correctly all the dock icons.

Any help or feedback would be so appreciated.

Thank you.

Cheekyage,

Remove the dashboard from the dock if you do not want it there. Then, go to your Applications folder, find the Launchpad and place it in the Dock to your desired location.

    I was given this iMac and the Launchpad is missing from the folder in the Finder.

    FWIW, you didn't say what iMac or which version of OSX, but reinstalling OS x is the only way I know.

  • My iMac 27 "was missing from the option of resolution 1920 x 1080 since the day I bought it. Apple said it should be fixed in future updates to OS x, but that didn't always happen.

    I have a beginning 2013 27 "iMac I customized with all the best options at the time. Since I bought it, the resolution options have displayed no 1920 x 1080 option, I tried several things as now the option key while noting key worked. In years past, I asked Apple several times about this, and their response was always 'it should be fixed in next update OSX." Well, its been a few years already, and 3 new releases OSX and the problem has never been resolved. I'm pretty sure its a problem with the graphics card from Nvidia, but I can't contact them for support because they can't really do anything. It is not like I can update the drivers for the card, software update is supposed to handle this.

    I think that its ridiculous that I had this problem for so long without help at Apple. It isn't that I'm missing a non-standard resolution.

    What happens when you:

    Define the main screen resolution

    1. Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click view, and then click display.
    2. Select chipped, then select one of the options of resolution nationally.

  • Export a collection of catalog and import into the catalog of my work on my iMac, color labels are missing.

    During my project for my photography class, I have to shoot on site and edit the best photos with the model, on my MacBook. At home on my MacBook I export the collection newly created to a catalog (including negative files), copy the directory with the catalogue all the other files over the network and import the catalog into my standard catalog on my iMac. On my iMac, all the imported photos color labels went into my standard catalog, and very strange, color labels have also disappeared when I open the catalogue exported (and copied) on my iMac. Did I miss something?

    I don't think it's something to do with the copy over a network.

    My guess is that you have to look at metadata > color label set. Try to compare the settings on both computers. If they are different, a computer do not know what the other means red, yellow etc.

  • Missing tab of the Spry Menu on CS5 using an iMac (only 2 computers do not see)

    I use Dreamweaver CS5 on iMac in my class. Two students are not able to see the blue tab of the Spry menu bar.  Is there something that should be selected in so that they can see it?  I thought that maybe they missed a step, so we followed our book and recreated the Menu bar on another page.  Once the menu bar is complete and you click on the Blue Menu Spry tab is not available.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Spry menus have been abandoned by Adobe.two years ago because they can not be used by millions of visitors on portable devices.  We use now of JQuery menus or pure HTML/CSS menus.

  • My imac (El Capitan 10.11.6 - 2 Terabyts) complete and FCPX disk will not work. I moved a few fcpxbundles library to an external hard drive (seagate 2 trabyte) and erased from the iMac. NowFCPX said that missing data as effects therefore can not shar

    Help!  My FCPX (v - 10.2.3) does not work because my iMac drive is full (iMac 21.5 inch has 2 terabyte w / v OS El Capitan 10.11.6) I had tried to free up space by moving tons of files on a usb disk Seagate (2 terabyte) speedboat that barely made a dent. then on the advice of a friend I found (in movies) a file called Final Cut backups. There were 4 files with extension, ".fcpbundle" I have three of them moved to another drive to Seagate usb - they had 2.82 GB, 21.6 GB and GB 68,21 that I thought should be enough and them removed from my iMac drive - bad! It says I have only 13.46 GB free on my 2 terabyte iMac total!

    The fourth fcpbundle it's TB 1.72! But before leaving that I returned and opened FCPX and found the warning triangle around my library... While my last project looked OK I couldn't / the share of exports because the pop-up says FCPX has no data for efx etc (the media looked at and display fine) and cannot be taken out.

    FCPX can work with the "beams" moved to another drive? How the detectable in a new place? Or how to put them back?
    How can I make sure that future packages clutter my iMac again?

    Do I need a RAID disks? If yes which?

    I found other folders in folders 'Make files' and records backup for projects with the .fcpbundle inside files

    How can I get this sucker working again?... and what should I do to keep him from doing the same thing in the future?

    Thank you

    :.. then on the advice of a friend I found a file called Final Cut backups (in movies). There were 4 files with extension, ".fcpbundle" I have three of them moved to another drive to Seagate usb - they had 2.82 GB, 21.6 GB and GB 68,21:

    The backup files are only the database files (no media) and must be low, not gigabytes, do not know what is happening there.

    Media libraries stored in the bundle of FCP X library or stored outside?

    If stored at the breast, called managed media, simply copy and paste the library to a different location.

    Make sure that library books newly located correctly before you remove what either.

    Perhaps check your settings of the library.

    Click the library icon in the browser and it appears in the Inspector:

    By clicking on change settings shows this:

    Move the mouse over the media and it will reveal the path where things are sent.

    Then you might be able to track down what goes where.

    From you description, it seems that most of the media files and rendered is not be moved successfully.

    Some screenshots would be useful if you can't find where stuff is.

  • My wacom tablet utility is missing on my iMac

    I have an iMac OS Yosemite running. I just bought an Intuos pro. I have currently a Wacom Graphire, but I can't seem to get rid of old Wacom drivers (so I can't install new drivers for my intuos pro.)
    I do not have a file called "Wacom tablet" in applications. I have a 'Tablet' called & when I double click on 'Remove tablet' an error message appears saying;
    Cannot open the application "RemoveTablet" because the PowerPC applications are no longer supported. I know I have to get rid of old drivers graphire, but I am at a loss how to proceed? I called Wacom who sent me instructions on how to uninstall the drivers, but there is no info on what to do if you have no folder called "Wacom tablet." Help would be much appreciated! Thank you, Paula.

    The problem you are experiencing is the utility of Tablet Wacom, 'Remove the Tablet', that is on your computer has been written for the PowerPC Macs that have not been done for 10 years, that's why it does not work. You need locate all the files on your iMac Wacom and remove them manually. you try to run the driver installation program Intuos and he gave you a message, you must first uninstall the old ones?
