IE7

not showing in taskbar dock

Monday, February 26, 2007 by Brandon Barrette | Discussion: Docks

Anyone else having problems with IE7 not showing up in the taskbar dock? I can only get firefox to do so, which is not a problem, except that I need IE 7 to run a few applications.

thanks!

never had that problem. so it doesn't show up after you drop it in the dock? You could try right clicking the dock then add shortcut then in properties copy and past the link to your C: drive were ie7.exe is located. if that doest work leave some additional feed back someone will probably be able to help.

Oh... well i can get a shortcut to open up IE7, but I have a dock that shows everything open on my taskbar (i.e. the windows I currently have open) and IE7 doesn't show up... Any suggestions?

oh, that makes sense. Strange that it doesn't show up. if you dont here from anyony mabey repost in the general forum.

Also this will fix that problem; Next week check out my post in OD+ Gallery ive been able to put OD+ icons w/ flyout-menus and zoom effect etc. on to the Window Taskbar. That way you can still use the taskbar as well which is popular w/ Window blinds users. This would also fix your problem. Also then you can see the text with the application icon thats running instead of just the icon. (good when having multiple windows of one program open)

Brandon, what's your OS? It shows up fine in my OD+ taskbar in Windows XP SP2.
Is your taskbar dock tabbed or standard? When you have IE7 open and you minimize it does anything show on the taskbar dock then?
