Q: Dock is frozen — impossible to add or delete items from the dock
Hi. I just migrated my old macbookpro to a new one. I also installed the new Adobe CS4 software. When I wanted to replace the CS3 with the CS4 items in the doc, I found out that I couldn't move, add or delete items from the dock. So I thought, must be a right issue like it is stated in the help files. However, I'm the only user ànd administrator. So how can that be? Anyone have an idea? Thanks.
macbook pro 2.53 ghz intel core 2 duo 4 gb 1067 mhz ddr3, Mac OS X (10.5.5)

Alternatively, if you want to keep your dock settings as they are, you could open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, copy the blue text in, and press enter.
defaults write com.apple.dock contents-immutable -bool false;killall Dock
What that command does is tells the dock to unlock its contents, and then relaunch.
Good luck!
