[QUOTE="TattooedMac, post: 877306, member: 101749"] Awesome mate.... Thanking you. I still have the trash and finder icon invisible in the dock now. They seemed to be there once i logged back on without me dragging them there. Would this be normal???? But yes it cleared the dock and reset all my preferences on it. EDIT: Just doing some browsing and found this post for a ? of what do the transparent icons mean... It means the applications are hidden. You can enable this via the terminal. Open the terminal (/Application/Utilities/Terminal) and enter the following and press enter: defaults write com.apple.dock showhidden -bool true killall dock then press return. Does this sound right. Need to be sure before i do anything as such I'm presuming that now i can relocate the plist back to where it came from without a worry ????? Thanks again for the wise advice :D [/QUOTE]
