To uninstall widgets bring up dashboard, click the + in the bottom left of the screen and click 'Manage Widgets'
The other widgets you're looking for should be in there too - click the tiny left and right arrows at the left and right of the panel at the bottom of the screen to see more widgets.

I just had to do a clean install after cocking something up. I reinstalled fine and put all my bookmarks back on the safari toolbar and then downloaded some updates. After i restarted the following happened:
1. All of my boomarks disappeared and i have had to put them back one by one.
2. In finder the icon for documents, movies, music and photos has gone instead of the being a symbol it is just a blank folder for each of them.
Just wondered what could have caused this?

Miss c. I think fatreg is just messing about. And im sure Jools is just going to tell you there is no need for virus protection on your mac as he has done to me so many times lol. Apparently most of the virus software for macs just searches for windows viruses on them to stop them transfereing them. ALso to install a virus on a mac would be done by user negligents (cant spell) as to install anything which could potentially damge your mac you would have to enter your system password then give it the ok to do all the bits (i belive this is along the lines of what jools told me)
I say don't worry, you probally did something wrong lol

oo something I can achually help with. Ok I myself have just done the same thing (using a windows lappy for some work as well as me mac). ok first if you have your pc still then you can just copy the itunes music folder accross to the mac and import all the music (you can do this by hard disc or dvd etc) thats what I did. or you can wipe your ipod and use it as rmovablle media and transfere it that way, though again that relys on you having the music on your pc though. If either of those dont work or are not viable then i recomned you go to mac update.com and seach for ipod. Under the apps avalibe is one called ipod dick, which allows you to browse a ipod and then copy all the songs from it onto your hd. One thing is it will ask you when you plug in the ipod do you want to join this libery... it will wipe yur ipod clean if you say yes so make sure you say no lol
