My iMac is too heavy to lug to my neighborhood Apple Store. Perhaps someone can tell me how to fix this. Any folder, photo, document I place on my desktop can't be moved around. Instead when I try to move it, it bounces back into place. I can guide into the trash if I click and drag it, but otherwise, all icons bounce back into place. Update: I have abandoned BetterTouchTool in favour of a patched version of the open-source Hummingbird app (a fork of Easy-Move-Resize). Yet another option is ShiftIt, a tiny open-source utility which allows positioning and resizing windows using keyboard shortcuts. As a bonus, it provides shortcuts to move windows between multiple displays.

So, sorta like how it's been since spaces was introduced in. 10.5 was it? Only now it only works in a line because they decided that I should have to take the most inefficient route possible if switching between many desktops instead of being able to lay them out as a grid. Sigh. Paint app mac ids.
Not sure about 10.5; but, in 10.6, you can drag to a corner and if you have a grid of spaces, it would move diagonally to the next one.
You can also grab a window by the title bar drag it slightly so that you 'have it' then type command-# to go directly to that desktop.
Spotify free family google home. I am not having success with this with Command + Space#, but as posted in the comment below, it works with Control + Space# Logic pro 9 free download mac lion.
Coming from Linux, I just accepted this as a natural feature.
However, what I think is fastest, is to click and hold on the titlebar of any window, then use shortcut keys to switch desktops.

This is a nice feature I didn't know about. Download foxit reader for mac os x. It brings me slightly closer to liking Mission Control. I still miss spaces though. The ability to drag windows into any space from one view (not having to switch to the other space to do it) is sorely missed. It is not the end of the world, but I do miss it.
Treating your leftmost window as #1 (not sure if Dashboard usurps this when it's set up as a Desktop):
- go to the Desktop containing the window you want to move, and click and hold on the window's title bar (not on the proxy icon in the top center)
- hold Control and hit the digit for the Desktop to which you'd like to move the window
You'll be whisked away to that Desktop, baggage in hand. Think Harry Potter. Portkey. Flue powder.
You may need to set up keyboard shortcuts to enable this--I forget what the default was: System Preferences > Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts tab, category Mission Control in the left column, 'Switch to Desktop ' items on the right. If ^1 takes you to Desktop 1, then click-and-holding on a window's titlebar and typing ^1 will teleport that window to Desktop 1.
I haven't found a way to move more than 1 window at a time this way, unfortunately, but for 1 or 2 windows it's quicker than the other techniques.
