Steps for placing VisibleTesla on the Dock in recent versions of O SX 1. Download VisibleTesla by clicking on a download link or automatically, with the “Check for Updates” feature in the

Application (Typically a folder called VisibleTesla 0.XX.XX) will be placed in your Downloads folder).

2. [Optional] Copy or move that complete folder to a location of your choice (typically you might place it in the Applications folder with all your other applications) and remember where you placed it.

3. Open “Finder” and navigate to the folder that contains the VisibleTesla 0.XX.XX sub-folder). Double click on the

folder to open it and view its contents.

STEPS 4 to 11 are Optional and only necessary if you want to replace the default Java icon associated with VisibleTesla with an image of the Model S FOB. If not, skip to step 12.

5. A window called VisibleTesla.jar Info will open with the name of the file in bold at the top and a JAR icon to the left of this (with a coffee cup in the image). Keep this window open.

6. Go back to “Finder” and double click on the Fobicon.png file the VisibleTesla 0.XX.XX sub-folder to open the FOB image in the “Preview” application.

7. Copy the contents of the image in the “Preview” application by pressing “Command + C”

8. Go back to the VisibleTesla.jar Info window from Step 5 and single click on the little coffee cup image at the top of the info window, not the image in the Preview section of the info window. The outside of the coffee cup image will be highlighted with a blue outline.

10. The Model S FOB picture will replace the coffee cup picture (top left). Close the VisibleTesla.Jar Info window.

11. Go back to “Finder” to view the VisibleTesla 0.XX.XX sub-folder again. The VisibleTesla.jar file should now have the Model S Fob image associated to it.

12. Drag the VisibleTesla.jar file to either your desktop or to the Program Dock at the bottom. Note that you can only place such a file on the right side of the Dock (user items).

NOTE: If when clicking on your VisibleTesla dock icon you get an error message that you cannot open the file because it is from an unidentified developer you will need to right click the VisibleTesla.jar file in its original folder and select “Open With” and choose ”Jar Launcher” [You only need to do this the first time. Subsequent attempts to open using the icon in the Doc should open the application without issue]
