Launchpad/Timemachine

Anyone,

I have spoken to Apple (several levels)....they sent me here. They said you were smarter. I had moment of insanity this morning...

I decided that I would drag my Time Capsule icon that appears after back-up of my computer and place it on the Launchpad icon on the dock.

If you are now off the floor from laughing, any ideas? I would conservatively say it safe to estimate my number pages of icons is over 200...I lost count.

Any help or well wishes returning to PC ownership are welcome. I have re-installed Lion. The following is about my new iMac

If you need additional information or advice destroying your iMac in 5 seconds....my email is my signature@msn. I am sure I violated 10,000 forum rules but this hour #14 of this so I ask for dispensatiion in advance.

Thanks,

I have pretty thick skin...no mom insults.

Thanks for all of the advice (sarcasim) but some at Apple helped me and fixed it in two minutes. You should call them....they had an easy solution.

I would not recommend doing this...becasue I had 409 pages in my launchpad. Everyone, no matter how good you are has problems. They are computers, something is going to happen.

I should have known better than to ask for help in a forum....where the rules are more important than actually helping people (surprising that Apple uses the same rule a Microsoft)

The rules for this forum are pretty standard... I guess after trying the whole day spent on getting some help...I took a shot and broke the rules. Wow, that is kind of what Apple's company philosophy is...take risk and think different.
