hey everyone,

I just purchased an iMac and I like the concept of having multiple desktops on LION...but the only annoying thing is...if i open my 1st desktop and i open a safari window in that desktop..then i switch to desktop 2 and click on safari again to open a new window...it takes me back to desktop 1 where my first safari window is...I want to be able to open a new safari window in desktop 2...is that possible?? I can't figure it out...it always goes back to desktop 1..is there a way around this?

When you have the second desktop active, right click on the Safari icon on your dock, and then click new window. That will open a new window on your second desktop.
