To add icons to your Desktop, you will have to drag from the Program Group list the individual program icons onto the Desktop. The same must be done for Microsoft Office. These items are not automatically added. For the Mac, you have to drag-n-drop the program into the /Applications folder and manually add it to the Desktop toolbar. For most UNIX/Linux installations, you will have to add the appropriate icons to the Desktop.
