how do i add facebook to launchpad

Hi Stellebags,

I don't know of a way to include Facebook in Launchpad. Launchpad is for launching apps. Facebook is a web site, not an app.

I can think of two ways to quickly access Facebook.

Method 1: Make Facebook your homepage in your web browser. When you launch your browser (for example from the Dock), it will take you to Facebook.

Method 2: make Facebook a Bookmark under Favourites:

You can add a web link to Facebook to your Dock. When you are in your FaceBook page, single-click in the address bar so the address moves to the left and the Facebook icon shows:

Click on the blue facebook icon and drag it to your desktop. That creates a desktop web link. Now close or minimize the Safari screen and look at your Dock. Note that the right end has a faint divider (in the yellow oval I added to the image below):

Find the web link you created and drag it to the RIGHT side of that divider (for example, where the "pdf" icon is in my example) and your should have a direct Facebook link in the Dock.

I just set FB to be my default home in Safari.
