Not very odd at all!

if it's not an app open you open often why would you want it in the dock when you have a shortcut straight to applications?

You can drag from apps to the dock though... and it'll stay there...



to remove from dock you click and drag from dock and then let go:

hmmmm.. I'll see what I can find out about the speed issue, I connect to my net wirelessly as only ever have, so don't see what's going on! you using safari?


figured it out.

I'm using a Virgin broadband router which is made by Netgear, and its this model of router that doesn't seem to like mac.

I dug out an older netgear router that I take on travels with me, as its small and it gives me wireless in my room when the hotel only provides a wired connection

I connected that to the virgin netgear router via ethernet cable, and connected to the mac wirelessly to that old wireless router and I'm now getting the same speeds on the mac that I am seeing on the vaio

the virgin router is on the latest netgear firmware, and I can't see any "make macs go slow" settings, so I guess I'm stuck using 2 wireless routers in the house until I can figure that puzzle

edit: well that didn't take long.
The router has a "mode" setting which can be 54Mbps legacy mode, a 145Mbps neighbour friendly mode and a 300Mbps Performance mode.

The mac works perfectly fine in 54 and 300 Mbps modes but slows to a crawl in 145Mbps mode, which is what I had it set at

how weird!
