Hey all¡­.?

First thing is whoever is controlling the thermostat turn it up!

OK. ?Somehow and I still have not figured out how, but I have lost a file folder from bar at the bottom of the screen on my MACBook. ?Since day one I had this file icon (actually two) in the row with mail, browser contacts, iMessage ?and such. One was a folder with ALL my apps in it in alpha order. And then my Downloaded files. ?

I do not remember what I was doing that somehow both of them got deleted and I can not figure out how to get them back. ?I did make a file folder and copied some programs to it and it is on my desktop. It¡¯s not ALL the programs/apps tho just what I put in it.?

How do I get those back? ?

Thanks,
Richard

Richard-
I assume you aren¡¯t talking about the Mac icon named ¡®Launchpad¡±, which has all your apps.

If that¡¯s not what you meant, I found this in Apple Support:


I hope that helps.

I assume you are talking about the Dock. The items in the dock are aliases. If you accidentally remove and item from the dock it is still on your computer. Just do a search for the folders.
Good Luck.
