I am unable to change the icons for my desktop shortcuts after installing firefox on my windows 7 machine.

All of the Desktop Shortcuts under properties show nothing about being able to change the icon.
General-Security-Details-previous version are the only tabs available

Try this; Locate the Firefox program shortcut, or open your file browser
and go to the Firefox program folder. '''Right click > Properties > Shortcut > change icon.''' Change it. Then press '''Apply.''' Did this work?
This may help;

  • How to change the icon for 'windows group' in Java 1.6 [Windows XP] ?

    Hello,
    I was wondering if there is a possibility to change the icon for 'windows group' in Java 1.6...
    I'm using Windows XP SP2. Now the windows from my Java 1.6 application are grouped with the standard Sun icon [screen below] on the group.
    http://img382.imageshack.us/img382/8995/iconbl1.png
    I would like to change the icon for my own. Is there a way to do that ?
    Please help.

    Whichever icon I use for the main frame (I tried few), after grouping the main frame and other sub-frames the icon is changed to standard 'Java Sun' icon as you can see in the screenshot from my first post. The problem occurs only when frames are grouped, when the are separated in the task bar their titles and icons are ok...
    So how can I change the icon/title for the group only (for Java 1.6 in Windows XP) ?

  • How to change the Icon for a JFileChooser ?

    Has anyone figured out how to change the icon for an instance of JFileChooser from the coffee cup to something else?
    I'm on 1.4
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Never mind. I figured it out.
    You have to use an instance of JFrame in the call to showXxxxDialog(Component c). Set the icon of the JFrame to what you want the JFileChooser's icon to be.

  • How can I change the icon for incoming messages on iChat?

    I already changed the icon for the ichat app, but whenever i get a new message it reverts back to the original icon with a number on the corner. I have an icon for the alternating messages i just don't know how to change it. HELP?!

    Hi,
    It's a long time since I changed an Icon on anything on my computer.
    The icon for the App is stored in the App and there are two ways to change  it.
    You can do a  Get Info (CMD and i Keys together) on the app itself and then Paste a new icon to the top field.
    The other way is to edit/change the icns file in the App itself.
    Right/Control Click the app and choose Show Package Contents.
    Open the Contents folder then Resources and the iChat.icns file is in there
    I am presuming that if you use the first method - the bit that puts the Red area with the number in it uses something else (possibly the icns file)
    I cannot find any "supply" of the red numbers.  In fact I use Chax (An iChat Add-On) that changes this  to the first part of the first IM that is not read - which suggests the red area is the important bit.
    If you do try to edit the .icns file I would save the Original first.

    Please, if posting Logs, do not post any Log info after the line "Binary Images for iChat"

  • How can I change the icon for the bookmarks menu button

    Using linux, the default icon for the bookmarks menu button is quite ugly. Is there a way to change the icon for the button with some code in userChrome.css ?

    After several intents, I found a solution.
    This is my userChrome.css file:
    @namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
    toolbarbutton[class="toolbarbutton-1"]#bookmarks-menu-button image[class="toolbarbutton-icon"] {
    list-style-image: url("bookmark_gray.png") !important;
    -moz-image-region: rect(0px, 0px, 0px, 24px) !important;}
    Probably it's messy but works.

  • How I change the icon for iTunes songs?

    When I drag iTunes songs onto my desktop the icon is white with a gray iTunes icon. How can change this icon for all of my iTunes songs?

    Thanks Patrick. I used Control-Click on the actual audio file on my desktop opened the Show View Options menu and turned off the icon preview option. That changed my icons from gray with a white background to red with a white background which is exactly what I wanted.  You pointed me in the right direction. Appreciate it.

  • How to change the icon for print dialog?

    Hello,
    I have a JTable, and with the print() method, I'm able to bring up the Print dialog and successfully print the contents of the table. Example:
    myTable.print( JTable.PrintMode.FIT_WIDTH, myHeaderFormat, myFooterFormat );This works great, but one small detail I'd like to change is the icon in the top-left corner of the dialog. The icon is currently the default Java coffee cup icon, while the rest of my application uses my custom icon. I couldn't find any documentation in the API or tutorials that Java has listed which shows how to change the icon, so I'm not even sure if it's possible (but why shouldn't it be?).
    My question is this: Is it possible to change the default icon in the print dialog? Or do I have to either make my own print dialog somehow, or use a third-party print dialog?
    Thanks

    tjacobs01: Appreciate the assistance (despite your sass). I've already searched the API, tutorials, and this forum. I'm already well aware of the setIconImage() method for JFrame -- after all, that's how I set the icon for my other frames as I previously mentioned. However, I want to set the icon for the print dialog called from the print() method of JTable.
    How would I use setIconImage() for the print() method of JTable? The print() method returns a boolean value, not a JFrame, so I'm just not sure how to implement what you're saying.
    Thanks

  • How to change the icon for a shortcut on the desktop

    I created a shortcut on the Desktop (dragging a safari url-icon to the desktop) but the icon showing is a safari icon.
    The website has a specific icon, as displayed as the first item (icon) on the url bar in front of the website-URL.
    I located the specific icon on the website (favicon.ico), opened it and copied the icon (copy paste).
    Then I opened the properties screen for my shortcut (at the Desktop) (control click on link) .
    Now I am supposed to copy the new icon (from my Clipboard)  into the properties of the Desktop URL, but how do I do that?

    You can change the favicon for a folder but not  a specific Safari url.
    Click a clear space on your desktop then go to the Finder menu and click File > New Folder
    Move Safari url shortcuts to that folder.
    Then copy and paste the icon for the folder.

  • Changing the icon for saved Web links.

    Im trying out different forum topics to see if anyone can help and I thought this would be a cool thing to do and might be doable with an applescript.
    I save a lot of web address as files to go back to later and I find the default @ icon for firefox or the blank icon for safari pretty appalling. I was wondering if there was a way to change the icon so that when ever I save a new link file it would use the new icon. I was thinking about just an icon that has the Firefox, safari, chrome logo would be good or even better a little picture preview of the web page its self. Any help on this little idea I have is very appreciated
    I really like the idea of a page preview for weblink files. Like this ( http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a238/Nuclearanthrax/Screenshot2010-09-02at1021 41PM.png )
    I completely understand a straight up no answer to this. I have no idea how applescript works. I have used it very few times.

    Pierre,
    I tried this AppleScript but it was not working. Is there something that I need to check.
    I had a few web link files in a folder and the script RAN the INFO window popped up but nothing changed.
    This would be a valuable tool for me an my students,
    Thanks in advance

  • IDeskjet 1055 & I'm unable to open the icon for it on my desktop.My computer is a Compaq

  • Changing the icon for Entry Points

    Hi Everybody,
    There are some default Entry Points for Pesonal Documents, Public documents, Recently used, Favourites etc.  All these Entry points are being displayed with the default icon image. I want to replace these default images with custom images but couldnt see any property where i can change the image path for these folders. I checked the details of all these folders and even went through the properties but there it shows only the default image name speciefied for that folder and no active settings where i can change the image path for custom icon. Kindly suggest how to implement custom image for KM folder icons.

  • Can I change the icon for a safari link to a picture?

    I'm saving safari links, I'd like to use the picture of what the link is to as the icon as opposed to the default. Is this possible?

    Hi there
    Well, this is a yes and no answer.
    Yes, you could change an icon, But no, RoboHelp won't make it easy. What you will end up doing is massaging the JavaScript code for the WebHelp output. This particular change isn't really for the faint of heart. Oh, and you would likely have to change it each time you generate your WebHelp output.
    I would encourage you (and others) to consider submitting a Wish Form to ask Adobe to put this on their radar for a future version.

  • HT2493 Can I change the icon for Pages? Or does it have to stay as the orange, preset image?

    So, I just updated my Pages, and the upgrade came with a new icon! As you probably know, the icon shows some papers and a pen. Both orange. I feel quite snippy to say this, but the orange bugs me! I would love the old inkwell back. Is there any way I can change Pages' icon but keep the new patches and such?

    I tried this, but all that shows up is the PNG symbol. -->
    Do I have to use a certain kind of image? Like a jpeg? Thank you!
