RIP Stickies?
Apparently when I got my Macbook in December 2007, I was foolish enough to delete Stickies from my Application. I don't particularly remember doing such a thing, but I probably would.
I decided that Stickies would be helpful, so I decided to re-download it from my OS:X CDs/DVDs. The application isn't on either CD, and I used a program called Pacifist to look for the individual application. Nothing.
Is there any way to get Stickies back?

I don't know why you can't find it with Pacifist. It's in the Applications folder - /Applications/Stickies.app.

There is also a Stickies Widget in Dashboard.

Yes - good point. However, I am damned if I can find a way of cutting and pasting between my desktop and Dashboard Stickies.

Though that's definitely just not the same thing. Real stickies are in-your-face. Much better.

Control-C, Control-V works just fine for me with text. Or is this not what you mean? Originally Posted by Rhisiart 2009 Mac mini 2.0GHz • 2010 MacBook Air 11" • 2010 MacBook Pro 13" • LED 24" Cinema Display

I have the dashboard Widget, but I can't be arsed to go to dashboard for reminders. I went back to Pacifist and didn't see it, and I'm without an external HD to use time machine, so Archive/ Install will have to wait. I'll go stickie-less for a while I suppose.
