Thank you to everyone who helped me with resolving this issue. I used Jim's terminal commands and now the icons stay nicely in the dock. Even better, they don't even leave the dock if they are dragged. For the life of me I still can't understand why this isn't a checkbox in the dock's preferences.

Again, thanks to everyone!

I need the ability to lock the icons in the Dock in Leopard.
Something that will now allow the user to add/remove icons from it.
Anyone know of anything?


I'm not running Leopard here (I'm away from my machine that has Leopard)
but this works on 10.4

Terminal

To LOCK the Dock use:

defaults write com.apple.dock contents-immutable -bool true
killall Dock

To UNLOCK use:

defaults write com.apple.dock contents-immutable -bool false
killall Dock
