YOu can also tell them where to dock with the above.   This happens if you had dual screens and find yourself working on a single screen.
I + XI = X is true ...  ... if you change your perspective.

where in the CUI do you do that.. I dont see it.. I usually dock them manually by clicking on them..

Check out this link.  I am home, so I can't fire Autocad and give you screen shots but I believe this link will help. 

Quote
Orientation
The on screen docking or floating state of the palette. The available options are Floating, Top, Bottom, Left, Right, or Do Not Change. Do Not Change keeps the last used state of the palette when the workspace is restored or set current. Some palettes like the Command Line also support a dock location of Top and Bottom.

Ahh Ha that link  also shows the process at the bottom.

First have you checked your current setting for workspace?  Might want to try to switch to an different workspace if you have one to see if they are still available to autocrap?

Sheesh.  I saw the title of the thread and thought you had a question for ME!  I don't know about any of that silly Autocad stuff.  :-)
