Say you have AIM open and then you open safari and then itunes. Say you want to move all your conversations along with the buddy list at once with out moving everything else while using spaces. Press ‘command’ and move one of the items and everything involved with that application and it goes with it.
This works with any app. EG, you have 6 pages open in safari. Go to spaces. hold command down and then drag just one of the pages of safari and it moves all of them.

Sorry, I’m being thick here, I’m a newbie to MACOS, but how do you “Goto Spaces” I can sleected differrent screens (spaces?) but cant move between them

clive, you need to make sure your spaces function is activated. this can be done through sys pref. once thats set up, you can switch spaces either through the F keys, or option+arrows, or opening up all spaces and then toggling between them with your cursor, manually.

Many thanks for your help and reply Jos8hua. Its was getting all four spaces to come up on the screen that foxed me but I’ve now got a function key and my ’squeezy’ mouse buttons programmed to bring up spaces and can drag apps between them.

This doesn’t seem to work for me, too bad because it sounds sweet. Running OSX 10.5.2 on a 2Ghz coreDuo about a yeaar and a half old… Any tips would be nice
Love the site! Great tips!

Bodi,
When it says above “go to spaces”, you need to press the “activate spaces” hotkey combo that is listed under System Preferences|Expose & Spaces, under the Spaces tab. At that point, you will simultaneously see miniature versions of all the Spaces you’ve set up, and can drag (or cmd-drag) between them.
