[QUOTE="Oneironaut, post: 1189599, member: 88633"] Just drag the one in the Dock up and out, towards your desktop. It will disappear in a puff of smoke, which is normal. The application has not been deleted, just the Dock icon for it. When you were clicking that icon it was probably still looking for Stickies on your desktop, but you've since moved it to your applications folder. Now, you should only have one Stickies icon, the one for the application itself within your Applications folder. Drag THAT one, very carefully, into the Dock. Now you will have a second Stickies icon there, which is only a shortcut that you can remove, reposition and add again as often as you'd like. The important one is the one in your Applications folder, which is the actual application itself. For now, just try to get used to accessing the applications folder via the Finder. It will do away with potentially confusing extra movement. The Finder is the first icon in your dock on the far left that looks like a blue smiley face. Clicking that will show you the contents of your hard drive and all its folders. You can find the Applications folder under Macintosh HD. [/QUOTE]
