Cant change bookmark icon

basically what i have been trying to do is change the bookmark icon on my desktop for a web-link the link is for Air Droid ( i also have the Firefox addon on my phone) to transfer files but the icon is quite bad and easy to miss a white icon with a green paper airplane i have tried for multiple hours if you have any knowledge on the subject you can tell me please do share

You will have to set an icon yourself to an shortcut on the desktop in the Properties via the right-click context menu if the current icon isn't distinctive enough.
You can toggle the browser.shell.shortcutFavicons pref to see if that makes Firefox use the favicon for a desktop shortcut
You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • How Can I Change Bookmark Icons?

    I was going on vacation and decided to get wifi on the plane. I clicked on the Apple site's bookmark to load the sign in page and now the icon has changed. Is there any way to get the default icon back?

    Tap Settings > Safari
    Clear cookies, history, and data.
    Then restart your iPad.
    It may take a few days for all the bookmark icons to re populate.

  • I want option to change bookmark icon!

    all i want is for firefox to give me the option to change the icon a bookmark has.
    When i look at my bookmarks, some of them seem to "adopt" the logo of a site related to the bookmark. then there are the sites that do not have a logo. When i look at those bookmarks, all i see is some sort of "page" character.
    I want to change that "page" icon to something else.
    Do you all think you can find somebody to make this happen?

    Aside from the bug that changes some favicons mysteriously, there are a couple of extensions that allow you to insert a favicon for a bookmark.

  • I want to assign and change bookmark icons on my bookmark toolbar

    Some websites automatically assign an icon when I add them to my bookmark bar. For brevity sake, I delete the description so I can have more bookmarks lined up across the top of the browser page. Other websites do not generate an icon (its an icon of a blank page, a generic default setting I suppose). I want to be able to assign an icon for my bookmarks that do not have a unique icon.

    If you want to have a less crowded Bookmarks Toolbar then I don't think that you can assign icons.
    However you can create folders to put bookmarks in. That way, you can still put in a description if you want to, without having to give up Toolbar space. To create a folder:
    1. Right-click the Toolbar
    2. Select the 'New Folder...' option (near the top)
    3. Fill in the name (and description if you wish)
    4. Click 'Add'
    * You can now add bookmarks to that folder by draging and droping them onto it
    * You can edit a folder by right-clicking on it and selecting 'Properties...', changing it to how you want it and clicking 'Save'

  • Cant change JLabel icon with setIcon a second time???

    Hey all,
    I have drawn 21 cards on my GUI - then as a user selects one of three columns via a radio button and subsequent Submit button, the deck reshuffles itself, and is THEN supposed to change all the labels to the new cards in their New order.
    All the code is good up until the point where it tries to reset the icon - and then I get a
    "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException
    pointing to the line of my first Label that I am changing.
    I am trying to use the same settings as I did in the initial setting and think that maybe this could be my problem, but cannot find a proper setting in the Interface.
    My initial settings are this :
    for (i=0; i < 7; i++)
              cardscol1.setIcon(new ImageIcon("images\\" + deck.get(i)));
    cardscol2[i].setIcon(new ImageIcon("images\\" + deck.get(i + 7)));
    cardscol3[i].setIcon(new ImageIcon("images\\" + deck.get(i + 14)));
    THEN I tried this again (( INSIDE MY buttonHandler ))
    for (i=0; i < 7; i++)
                            j=0;
                            cardscol1.setIcon(new ImageIcon("images\\" + deck.get(j)));
    j++;
    cardscol2[i].setIcon(new ImageIcon("images\\" + deck.get(j)));
    j++;
    cardscol3[i].setIcon(new ImageIcon("images\\" + deck.get(j)));
    j++;
    And this is where I get the NULL POINTER EXCEPTION -- help??
    ****UPDATE:
    I cant access these Label PERIOD from within my Button Handler -- any idea why?

    OK -- the cardscol1 and 2 and 3 JLABEL arrays reference cards11, 12, 13, 14, etc. etc... THESE CARDS are within the initComponents class that is in a seperate class as well -- so that is probably my problem-- how do I get this submitButtonHandler class to see the cards that are in my initComponents class???
    AND THIS initComponents class is listed as PRIVATE!!! ((This is a class that the NetBeans GUI maker sets up -- very nice feature, but I cannot edit this class at all!))

  • Cant change a icon..

    hello,
    I wanted to change the adobe suit's icons. I had no problem changing all but Indesign's icon does not change. It seems like its locked. I have never experinced this before.
    Anything I can do about it ?
    Thanking in advance.
    Gokce

    If you can't do it by means of the Finder Get Info panel then swap the app's icon in its bundle…
    Prepare the icon you want to use as an .icns. Quit from the app. Control-click on the app's icon and select "Show Package Contents". Open "Contents" and then "Resources". You will see the current .icns (probably called "InDesign.icns"). Drag it out and keep it somewhere in case you want to restore it. Give the icon you prepared exactly the same name as the one you just pulled out and put yours in "Resources". Close the folders.
    You may have to play around a bit with launching and relaunching the app, and/or logging out/in before Finder recognises the change. You may need to drag the app's alias from the Dock and drag it back onto the Dock.
     

  • Cant change window Icon in a JFrame

    I cannot seem to set the icon in the upper left of the window or in the task. I am using NetBeans and it created my JFrame for me using the following code to initialize:
    java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Unable() {
                public void run() {
                    new MainFrame().setVisible(true);
            });I have checked online tutorials and this seem to be a trully easy task BUT my JFrame, MainFrame, seems not to have the method I need....
    I should be able too do this:
    MainFrame.setIconImage(Image image); But it seems I cannot get that method in my JFrame at all, it just doesnt show up in NetBeans and wont allow me to compile. I have tried looking at the base JFrame class and see no setIconImage there either. Any help would be apriciated.
    KN

    Can you post the code for your MainFrame class. Use
    code tags.Ok, 1st excuse the messy code, I am teaching myself Java and the code is a bit unproffesional. Also the code is large as it is a calendar program that allows you to input text into the actual calendar day boxes, loads, saves etc. Here is the declaration of the MainFrame class and the MainFrame constructor.
    public class MainFrame extends javax.swing.JFrame {
        // Constants
        public final int DATE_HEIGHT = 17;
        public final int DAY_HEIGHT = 80;
        public final boolean DBG = true;
        public boolean Init = true;
        public int curMonth = 0;
        public int curYear = 0;
        /** Creates new form MainFrame */
        public MainFrame() {
            initComponents();
            for(int x = 0;x < 12;x = x + 2){
                jTable1.setRowHeight(x,DATE_HEIGHT);
                jTable1.setRowHeight(x+1,DAY_HEIGHT);
            jTable1.setDefaultRenderer(Object.class, new ColorCellRenderer());
            DateFormat dateFormat =
                    DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.FULL);
            // Create our Gregorian Calendar.
            GregorianCalendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
            cal.setTime(new Date());
            DaYear.setYear(cal.get(cal.YEAR));
            DaMonth.setMonth(cal.get(cal.MONTH));
            Init = false;
            LoadIt(curMonth, curYear);
        }KN

  • Changing between the two different bookmark icons

    Hello... I am wondering if there's an easy (or not so easy) way to change a bookmark from one kind to the other kind. Specifically, when I combine PDFs, each source file ends up with one bookmark in the resultant PDF. These icons depict a "doubled bookmark"—two little bookmarks right next to each other, comprising a single icon. When I create new bookmarks in this PDF, however, the icon depicts just one little bookmark graphic.
    I want to change the "doubled bookmark" icons into "single bookmark" icons (without manually recreating them all)... is that possible? And if so, can I do this via Javascript?
    Thank you to the community.

    I've developed a free tool that does it. You can find it here: http://try67.blogspot.com/2011/09/batch-change-bookmarks-type.html

  • 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 do I change the icon representing my bookmark? I don't want the one that comes up automatically.

    How do I change the icon representing my bookmark? I don't want the one that comes up automatically.

    I'm trying to change an icon on a bookmark. These are the instructions I received: 'Lets you replace a bookmark's icon / favicon. Right click any bookmark, select "Properties", then "Browse". '
    But there is no "Browse" when you select "Properties". So what do I do?
    When I go into the regular Google it has a 'Change Icon' tab in the 'Properties' tab. Why doesn't Mozilla?

  • Is it possible to change my bookmark icon like I can in Internet Explorer, if not can this be a future enhancement?

    I utilize the bookmark toolbar to quickly access Internet and Intranet sites easily. When I've set these up in Internet Explorer I am able to change the icon that is displayed to what I want. With Firefox, there does not appear to be an option for this. Most bookmarks appear without any icon. This makes it difficult to identify the correct bookmark visually. Is there a way to do this? If not, I would request that this be a future enhancement.

    you can actually try this addon to create some icons : [https://addons.mozilla.org/En-us/firefox/addon/identfavicon/ bookmarks]

  • Home screen bookmarks icon change on firefox upgrade
