Moving Widgets from the Dashboard

Instructional Video!

This is a great think to be able to do. It means that you can drag any widget onto your desktop and use it with ease. So lets get down to buisness! First open 'Terminal' which can be found in 'Applications', then 'Utilities'. Into terminal copy and paste the following code:

defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode YES

and press enter. Then quit terminal and log out (this restarts your dashboard). Log back in again and go onto your dashboard. To put a widget on the desktop click and hold the top of the widget and while doing so click the dashboard key (F4 on a MacBook Pro). Voila!

P.S. to remove the widget just click and hold the top of it and while doing so click the dashboard key.
Hope you have fun!
