Removing a Program from a Launchpad Folder

A folder can hold two or more program icons. If you want to take a program icon out of a folder and put it back on the Launchpad screen, do this:

  1. Open Launchpad, and then click a folder that contains multiple program icons. A list of all program icons inside that folder appears.

  2. Move the mouse pointer over the program icon you want to remove from the folder and drag it outside of the folder area until you see the Launchpad screen.

    A Launchpad folder can contain two or more program icons.
