[QUOTE="SilverEagle5, post: 1454471, member: 16654"] I recently upgraded from 10.6 to 10.8. I like the Launchpad feature, but it seems like it's a bit difficult to use. Most of the topics I've found about it are for 10.7, and it seems like quite a bit has changed since then. How do I add things to the Launchpad? Hovering an icon over the Launchpad icon in the dock looks like it should work, but it never actually lets me put the app in it. Removing non-App Store items seems to be impossible, too, but I'm much more concerned about adding apps to the Launchpad that are in my apps folder but don't appear in the Launchpad. I can't re-name folders, either, but that's the least of my concerns. I was going to try [URL="http://chaosspace.de/launchpad-control/"]Launchpad-Control[/URL] but it says there are serious problems with Mountain Lion. Any help is appreciated. Maybe it's just me, but It seems like Launchpad has some potential, but without customization and ease-of-use, it's kind of pointless. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
