Today’s Quick Tip….
How to add an app’s icon to your Mac’s Dock
Do you find yourself using a particular app over and over on your Mac?
If so, placing that app’s icon permanently on the Dock will ensure that app is always just a click away.
To permanently display an often-used app’s icon on your Mac’s Dock, simply launch the app and right-click on its icon on the Dock, then select Options>Keep in Dock.
That’s all there is to it. From now on you can just click the icon on the Dock to quickly launch that app.
