Change "show in finder" icon to top

Hello, whenever i click a folder in my dock like the download folder or the Apps folder i can see all my items in it and at the end i can see the icon with the arrow to show in finder that folder
does anybody know if there is a way to move that "show in finder" shortcut to the top so i dont have to scroll all the way down to click it
Thanks

I presume you mean "Open in Finder"?
No.
Right click ( 2 finger click) on the folder's dock icon and click the Open "Downloads" or whatever.
Also cmd+click o the icon will open Finder at the level showing the folder.

Can't change Dock Finder Icon

Hello Everyone!!
I was changing my Dock Finder Icon recently, and I want to restore it and also change other icons. Before I do everything. I did a backup of Dock.app. I replaced the finder.png and [email protected] but when I do 'killall dock' in terminal and also a restart it was still my modified icon. Can anyone tell me how to restore the icon? Thanks!

All I can suggest is to peruse https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man1/xattr.1.html and http://gotofritz.net/blog/geekery/os-http://gotofritz.net/blog/geekery/os-x-exte nded-attibutes/

Finder icons tags

Hi,
In my Finder the tags are displayed as 'document' icons instead of the coloured dots. When viewed in dialogue boxes in applications the tags are shown as dots. Is there a reason for this? I want both to show the dots.

SOLVED: Close Case
I had Powerbox Injector & EasySIMBL running to change the side finder icons to the older, colorful versions. These stayed colorful, but messed with the tags. All good now.

Rebuit Finder Icons

I use Mac OS X (10.5.2) german Version.
Somehow (probably by using the Ice Clean tweak-tool) I changed all my finder Icons from originally german to english.
I allready tryed to change the country settings back to german, as well as I deleted Ice Clean. But it didn't work.
How do I rebuilt my finder Icons?
thanks

Finder Icon will not change! Please help!

I have been customizing the look of of my dockbar on my imac by giving all of my apps new ios 7 style icons.
Yesterday I changed my Finder icon with no problem at all by going to:
System→Library→Core Services→(right click 'Dock'→Show Package Contents)→Contents→Resources.
And replacing the two png files (finder.png) and ([email protected]) with my new images. Yesterday I did this all perfectly fine and it changed to my new icon.
However today I found a better finder icon and decided to change it again to this new version. However what ever I try it will not change to this new icon.
I have followed the exact same steps as before, I have replaced my two png files from yesterday with my new ones and I have checked and re-checked that I am naming the files correctly, and that they are the right format etc.
I have even deleted my original icons that I changed it to yesterday and emptied them from the trash but it is still there even after restarting and shutting down and rebooting.
I have also tried going to terminal and typing 'killall Dock', it still returns with the same icon that I changed it to yesterday, even though I have deleted them from my hard drive.
Please help me this is so frustrating and have wasted many many hours on this.

Then, update your profile/product info. BTW, I have nothing for the icon problem.

Flashing finder icon and showing "don't restore windows" and "restore windows" text box

hi, i hav problem with the flashing finder icon and showing "don't restore windows" and "restore windows" text box. im using macbookpro MAC OS X 10.7.5. i've search for solutions, lik relaunch the finder by pressing COMMAND+ALT+esc, but it didn't work for me...
any1 can help me, thx...

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

Wi-Fi shows joined in settings, but no icon on top and not working

Since what I believe to be after the 1.1.1 install, I can no longer connect to my home wi-fi, though my wife's iphone still does. I have reset x 2-3, tried to renew license, and even had our I.T. guy look at the problem to no avail. In settings, it shows that I have : wi-fi "on", ask to join..."on", and it would appear to be connected to our wi-fi (the name is highlighted in blue, there is a check beside it on the left, and the wi-fi icon shows full signal on the right). Following the arrow shows "static", with all fields populated with numbers, and http proxy "off". If I return to home menu-->no wi-fi icon at top. Problem examples: If I try to update weather-->"update failed" sometimes, sometimes not (the busy wheel spins but I never see the wi-fi icon like on my wife's). For stocks-->"error retrieving data" sometimes, sometimes not (as with weather). Likewise for D/L'ing mail-->sometimes "cannot connect...", sometimes it does. All that is ever at the top is the dreaded "E" icon. Suggestions?!?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I was looking through my pictures and when i tapped to see a specific one my ipod blacked out. Now the screen only shows the apple icon and I cant go anywhere. I tried preshing the on/off and home button but it won't work. I even pressed both at the same time for 10 seconds and still nothing... I connected it to my lap top and went to my itunes account but it tells me that the device that i just plugged in has an error. I already tried plugging it back in several times and it still won't work. I don't know what else to do. I havn't had it for a whole year yet so its still insured to the apple company right? at least thats what I heard

Have a nice day,

Using Custom Icons - Changing the Finder Icon

So I know you can just do a simple copy and paste under "get info" in order to change icons for applications and folders, but how do you do this for Finder? I know this is possible, if not for the simplest reason that one of the downloads that Apple has featured on this site for icons has a Finder icon (bad logic I know, but it seems odd that Finder would be the only icon you couldn't change). The problem is, how do you "Get Info" on Finder? Where would you find finder (no pun intended)?
Thanks in Advance

Thanks for the help in finding the icon, the only problem is that it won't let me alter it. I even changed permissions on the bottom of the "get info" screen to allow the current user (also the administrator) to both read and write, but it wouldn't let me paste a different styled icon over it. Any suggestions on how to change the Finder icon to a custom one? And ya we were thinking about how we would change it back too, but realized its not really that big of an issue because all our friends and even we have multiple macs, so we could always just copy it back that way.

Finder icons change of their own volition

This is not a major problem, but is annoying, so I'm hoping someone can explain it.
I have made no changes to my system recently nor have I used Nisus Writer Pro in a while. Yet, this morning, all my Finder icons for doc files have switched from Word to NWP! Which means that NWP has become the default application for opening Word doc files *without my asking it*. (This is even more bizarre when you consider that I've generally been using Pages to open these files as it loads quicker...)
I have nothing against NWP (in fact, I quite like it), but I do object to system changes occurring for no apparent reason!
Do any of our experts have any ideas on what might be causing this? Is it potentially symptomatic of a deeper problem (hope not)?
Gavin

Hi Gavin,
I can't see how it would not be indicative of deeper problems!
What happens if you change them to open with Pages?
