Blurry custom folder icons

I've put custom photo icons on hundreds of folders (using jpegs). Since upgrading to Snow Leopard, most of them have become blurry/pixelated. How do I fix them?
Also, when I try creating new custom icons, they don't show up right away, and when they do (usually hours later), they, too, are pixelated.

Have look at this link:

  • Yosemite - custom folder icons

    I made a set of custom folder icons in OS X many years ago. Those folder icons have stuck with me through many revs of OS X, from 10.4 onward - until Yosemite. Now all of my folders (and shortcuts to them) show a blank, generic icon. This happens both on my Mac Pro and my iMac, both of which now have Yosemite installed.
    Where have my customs icons gone? Can I get them back without having to redo the artwork? Can I use my old custom icons in Yosemite?

    I don't think there is as the custom icon information is stored as a separate fork, which SMB has no knowledge of.
    A couple of possiblities are:
    1) Enabling SFM (Microsoft Services for Macintosh) on the windows server. You can have the share mapped via SMB and AFP.
    2) On the server use ExtremeZ-IP http://www.grouplogic.com/products/extreme/overview.cfm
    3) Maybe on the clients use DAVE http://www.thursby.com/products/dave.html

  • Custom Folder Icons

    Alright, 8330 Curve with Sprint, running 4.5
    When I upgraded from 4.2, I wanted to get rid of the Voice Activated Dialing feature, as well as several other carrier-specific features that I didn't want to take up space.....so I went in and removed the associated files, using a tutorial widely available.  I did know when doing this, that I would lose the ability to create custom colored folder icons.  No biggie.
    Especially no big deal, when I used the standard Sprint theme, which has some very nice looking folders for IM/Social Networks/Entertainment.
    However, I recently changed themes just to the simple BB L theme, and of course, lost all of those icons.  I found a post taken from another page, which gave a tutorial, using BBFileScout to load custom folder icons into the BlackBerry.  However, I have a small problem.  I don't have a subdirectory for "Folders" where it should be - presumably due to the removal of the VAD. 
    Any suggestions?

  • Convert Windows folder.jpg into OS X custom folder icon

    Hello everyone,
    after months reading numerous post on the Web trying to find a way to convert the Windows "folder.jpg" into an OS X custom folder icon, I've come up with a solution using only the shell. Some users proposed using the Automator, which caused me lots of trouble (Spotlight sometimes wouldn't find the folder, or would return a Privacy error, and so on). Therefore, my solution uses only a Shell script with dependencies on some external libraries (most of them allowing to manipulate images and icons).
    Here's the code on Pastebin.
    I hope this will be as helpful for you as it was for me. It allowed me to apply the custom folder icons to thousands of folders, including the local Mac folders as well as the one on external storage (USB or LAN).

  • Custom Folder Icons won't display in Cover Flow

    When I paste a PNG or PICT or JPG file on the highlighted folder image in the Get Info window, the new icon for the folder will appear everywhere - icon view - list view - column view - except Cover Flow - What gives?

    I use a different method to get custom icons on my folders, and they are displaying correctly in Cover Flow. Tried what I presume you are doing: open graphic file in Preview, select Copy, go to GetInfo window of the folder and paste. That folder does not show up in Cover Flow AT ALL, just a blank space. Weird. Definitely a bug.

  • Customized Folder icons in the Dock

    There is a problem moving custom icons generated in 10.4. As one example, 10.4 Application and Home icons simply cannot be transferred to the 10.5 Dock without being badly distorted. They work properly but look terrible. The same thing happens with the custom icons that worked fine in 10.4 but do not appear properly in the Dock. I suspect there is a bug here that needs squashing

    I don't think it is your custom icons that are the problem, anyway mine are all fine. If I make an alias of a folder with a custom icon and drag it to the Dock, the custom icon displays just as it always did. If I drag a file with custom icon the custom icon is fine. I suspect your problem is that you don't appreciate the full horror of the new Stacks behavior: if you drag a folder to the Dock Stacks does NOT, by design, display the icon of the folder. Instead it displays the icon of the first item that is IN the folder, plus some nonsense meant to represent the items behind the first item. Think this is insane? So does everyone else (with the possible exception of whoever came up with the idea of doing it this way). Send feedback to Apple:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html/
    And do a search on the topic "Stacks" for various kludgy work arounds.

  • Temporary Fix for custom folder icons now working in dock...

    First of all, this is kinda simplistic and you will NOT be able to use stacks with it. When you click these icons, the folder will open in finder immediately. All you have to do is create an alias to the folder you want and then drag the ALIAS to the dock. Works perfectly for me.

    sorry, title should be not working in dock.

  • Accidentally lost Finder "Movie" folder icon-Help

    I accidentally dragged the "Movie" folder in the Finder Window onto the desktop and when I tried dragging it back to the Finder, it lost it's Icon design(it's just a regular blue folder now).
    How can I restore it's custom icon without having to reinstall Tiger. Thanks in advance!
    G4 Dual 1.0Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    The Finder has certain "special" folders in your home directory. They are recognized as special just by their name. If you have a folder named "Movies" it will be given the custom folder icon in your home folder and the even more special icon when in the sidebar. It only has these special icons when it is in the home folder. By moving it you disrupted this. Putting it back ought to fix it, but Finder may have developed amnesia about it or just isn't refreshing itself. Try restarting.

  • Office 2010 Custom Template - folder icon

    Hi,
    I made a XML custom templates files with many templates for word. I also made a registry patch to make word parsing this xml. Everything works, but I would like to change the categroy folder icon. Is there a way to do so ?

    Hi,
    Do you mean the folder displayed in the Available Templates pane under

  • How do I apply a custom folder/file icon in Yosemite?

    How do I apply a custom folder/file icon in Yosemite?

    Select the image you wish to use and press COMMAND-C to copy it. Select the folder/file icon. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. Click in the icon image in the top left corner, then press COMMAND-V to paste your image.

  • Custom tranparent folder icons

    Hi. I was wondering how I get folders to support custom transparent icons. I know how to copy an image to the clipboard and paste it to the destination icon it the Get Info window. What I want to do now is incorporate transparent pixels so I can make clean looking folders instead of square blocks with pictures in them.
    Don

    While it is possible to do it "by hand" it is not especially easy. The easy way is to either find such icons online, ResExcellence is one source, or to use the shareware program Iconographer to build your own:
    http://www.mscape.com/products/iconographer.html
    http://www.resexcellence.com/
    You can try Iconographer for free. If you like it the shareware is a mere $15.

  • Kernel Panic/"broken folder" icon but boots in safe mode

    I'm totally puzzled.
    When I boot the computer either from the HDD or my bootable back-up, i get the broken folder icon.
    But i can boot just fine in safe mode from the HDD - in fact, that's how i'm typing this message right now.
    I have turned off all login items.
    I repaired permissions on disk utility.
    What else can i do (short of my genius bar appointment tomorrow morning)?
    Thanks in advance for any ideas.
    I assume restoring from my backup HDD won't work since I can't boot from it?

  • Lion OS Folder Icons and Settings Change

    My new 8 core Mac Pro with Lion arrived August 29 to replace an older Mac Pro with Snow Leopard. FYI - Just before the new Mac Pro arrived, I checked and repaired any permissions issues via the Disk Utility. Once the new Mac arrived, it took four days to finally get things moved over from the main hard drive because of various problems. I held up the transfer from the other 3 drives and am glad that I did. After a bad optical drive was replaced, constant Finder problems have been occurring which appear to revolve around permission conflicts. In essence, the Mac OS on my Mac Pro appears to be schizophrenic and apparently, it is in need of a frontal lobotomy. In reviewing posts in this forum, I was surprised to learn that users have been reporting similiar issues ever since Lion was released. I was given the impression that my complaint about it was the first for the techs who have attempted to resolve the problem.
    I do a large amount of photography using the HDR technique so it is important to arrange image icons in specific groupings and order within folders. We have all gotten used to having icons in the same place or configuration in folders each time we open them. This not only gives us a feeling of consistency but is a critical time save when dealing with images and other graphic files. Unfortunately, because of some overlooked programming issue, the Mac OS Lion is confused as to what permissions it should pay attention do. While working, icon arrangements are constantly changing causing many hours of additional work without let-up. There is also an issue that happens I would call Blinking for no better of a word to use. In certain folders, icons will dissappear then quickly show again. This can happen about every 10 - 14 seconds sometimes.
    I have also noticed related problems with new software upgrades. They work fine at first, then all of a sudden, they do not. Simple slideshows exported to video using Lightroom now appear completely black. In Dreamweaver CS 5.5, I can connect to the ftp server but am not allowed to upload. I am stuck in limbo, not being able to migrate all my work over from the older computer because all folder icon layouts will be destroyed if I start working in them. It has also created licensing issues because now softwares are on two Mac Pros and a laptop. The latest tech support request is to either erase my new startup disk and installing softwares one at a time, or consider installing the more stable Snow Leopard. Has anyone figured out an answer? I have never had such a bad experience with an Apple product in over 20 years. I would highly recommend to professional graphic artists, photographers, or other visual professionals that rely on the consistency of icon views in folders to stay away from Mac OS Lion until the problems have been resolved. Hopefully Apple intends to correct this. It has already taken several months.

    What finally worked for me!
    My internal Mac hard drive is my “filing cabinet” with all folders installed by Lion (Applications, Users, System, and Library) plus my personal folders and data in each visible when I click on and open the harddrive. My internal Mac hard drive icon is on my desktop. After a restart the file and folder icons inside most of the first level of my personal folders would shrink and rearrange themselves.
    After an hour on the phone with Apple Tech Support andt rying a variety of approaches, we finally solved the problem of the shrinking and rearranged icons. (Thank you Manny!!!) This is what finally worked for me and my new MacbookPro 15-inch delivered with Lion already installed.
    BTW I use a mouse….
    Right clicked on the internal hard drive icon on my desktop. (Note: “Out of the box “ when you startup with Lion the first time the Mac Hard Drive probably will not be visible on the desktop and you have to reveal it!)
    In the dialogue box that opened I selected and clicked on “Get Info.”
    A long window opened. We looked at Sharing & Permissions at the very bottom of the window. In the “You have custom access” window my log in name was not there. This was the culprit!!! But the box was grayed out.
    At the lower right hand corner of the long window I clicked on the padlock to open it.
    A dialogue box opened with my user name and asked for my Password. I entered my Password and clicked “OK.”
    The grayed out area of the Sharing & Permissions box immediately darkened.
    I clicked on the plus sign at the bottom left hand corner of the long window.
    A window opened at the top of the long box. I highlighted my name on the right hand side and then clicked on the “Select” button.  My name then appeared in the Sharing & Permissions box at the bottom of the long window.
    To the right of my name un "Privelege" I made sure that “Read & Write” was turned on (use the little arrows.)
    Back to the lower left hand corner and clicked on the gear and when the box opened I clicked on “Apply to enclosed items.”
    Back at the lower right hand corner of long window, clicked on the open padlock to close it and lock the settings.
    In each folder using “Show View Options”dialogue window I resized all the shrunken icons, set the Arrange to by “Name,” anything else I wanted, clicked on “Use as defaults” closed the window and moved on. When I rebooted everything had stabilized!

  • Icon Creation Question -- What format are custom shaped icons saved as?

    I have Adobe Photoshop CS and Adobe Illustrator CS. I am assuming that one of those are able to create custom shaped icon format images for using on Mac folders.
    I am able to save usable icons for folders as .psd format.
    However, they are always square or rectangular, with a blank background around a non-square/non-rectangular image.
    I'm not able (don't know how) to save icons as custom shapes that only appear as the custom shape when in use on a folder.
    Examples
    The .psd file in Photoshop is only the blue disc shape, but when it's saved, the white background is added by default.

    I know how to use the Save for Web feature in Photoshop using the .png-24 selection which produces a transparent background, but that format doesn't work for icons.
    What format(s) do I need to save images as to use as custom shaped icons on Mac folders?
    A detailed reply would be very appreciated.

    The easiest way to get what you want is try Iconographer:
    http://www.mscape.com/products/iconographer.html
    It is quick, easy and a mere $15. You can do it "by hand" but it can get a bit complicated or iffy.
    1. Create the icon you want in Photoshop, format is 128x128 pixels at 72dpi.
    2. Make sure you have a transparent background layer, flatten the file
    3. Save as a tif file: myicon.tif
    4. Launch Terminal and type the command:
    tiff2icns /path/to/myicon.tif
    You can get Terminal to fill in the path for you, just put a space after the command, then drag the file into the Terminal window and drop it.
    Hit the Return key. With luck you will have a new file "myicon.icns" with the transparency preserved.
    5. Actually using your icon requires the icns file to actually display the icon so you can copy it from the GetInfo window. The only sensible way to do this is to download the freeware program icns2icon:
    http://www.icons.cx/goodies/
    6. Launch icns2icon and drop your new icon file on it. Now when you do GetInfo on the file there will be an icon to copy.
    Iconographer is easier and better. If you want to make a bunch of custom icons with transparent backgrounds it is well worth the 15 bucks.

  • Customer Dashboard Icon missing in Siebel

    The Customer Dashboard Icon is missing for some users only, but other users are able to see. There is no difference in Responsibility. How to troubleshoot?

    Do you have multiple Web Servers in your environment? You may want to check the PUBLIC folder on each to make sure everything is intact. Bouncing the World Wide Web Publishing service may also help.
