Hate the new document icons...

Hello,
Just bought a macbook and iWork '09. When I create and save new documents -- in Keynote, Pages, or Numbers -- the icon it assigns to the document isn't the nice little Keynote podium (or inkwell and pen for Pages, or bar graph for Numbers), but a blah sort of black box w/ white frame.
Is there a way for me to get it to use the nicer icons?

This has nothing to do with the Keynote (or other iWork) application. Your Mac is observing the Finder view settings currently in effect.
To change it, click on the desktop, then go to the View menu and choose "Show View Options". Make sure the "Show icon preview" item is not checked.

  • When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

    When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
    All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
    I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
    Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

    Anyone?

  • I hate the new flat Firefox icon; how do I change it back to the nice 3d one?

    With the upgrade to Firefox 23, you've changed the Firefox icon to a new flat design. It's horrible; I hate it; it looks awful. I want to change it back to the old swish looking 3D style icon. How do I do this please? I'm on Windows 7 64bit.

    Use this page to convert to .ico file:
    http://www.convertico.com/
    Save the created icon to local computer.
    Then download this and use to replace icon, you need to load your FF application, change appropriate icons, and save. FF can not be running when you save.
    Also go to desktop and taskbar, right click icon, go to properties, and change icon.

  • Using a PDF as a Document Template in SharePoint 2010: "New Document" icon and action

    Hi,
    I have to create a document template in SharePoint 2010 using a PDF. After much searching I have learned to install Reader on the SharePoint server to bring in AcroPDF.dll
    and set the OpenControl for PDFs in DOCICON.xml to be "AdobeAcrobat.OpenDocuments".
    After taking these steps I can check PDFs in and out of SharePoint, and edit PDFs as I would edit an MS Office document.
    However two problems remain with creating new documents based upon a PDF document template.
    1) The PDF icon does not appear in the New Document dropdown. This makes sense since I never referenced a 32x32 icon in the SharePoint config files. Where would I place the icon image file and which configuration file would I edit to use that image file, and how?
    The last three document templates are PDFs.
    The second problem I face is that when I click one of the document templates above that is a PDF, nothing happens. I have tried this with Acrobat installed on both the client and the server. It would be preferable to insert a copy of the PDF document used as a template without having to use Acrobat at all.
    Is there any resolution to either of these problems?

    According to what i found the image needs to be 16x16.
    See if this works.
    Edit the DOCICON.XML file to include the PDF icon
    In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML
    Edit the DOCICON.XML file (I open it in NotePad, you can also use the built-in XML Editor)
    Ignore the section <ByProgID> and scroll down to the <ByExtension> section of the file
    Within the <ByExtension> section, insert a <Mapping Key=”pdf” Value=”pdficon_small.gif” /> attribute. The easiest way is to copy an existing one – I usually just copy the line that starts <Mapping Key=”png”… and replace the parameters for Key and Value (see image below for example).
    Note: Do not take shortcuts and copy/paste from here. 99% of problems with PDF icons not being displayed are due to errors made in the DOCICON.XML file
    Save and close the file

  • I absolutly hate the new itunes, why change something good?!

    I absolutely hate the new itunes, why change something good?! I have no time or need to get used to the new layout, it is NOT user friendly, things are in places where I'd not look for them. I even don't like the red icon. Please change it back.

    Hhhmmm!
    Not only have you not been polite enough to acknowledge or respond to my question, but now I'm really confused...

    While you are correct that cover flow appears to have been dropped, you can still see the artwork in large form, by clicking on the thumbnail that you mention:
    And if you hover the mouse over the picture, various options, such as the play controls and close picture will appear.

  • I hate the new Apple Map.  The directions are confusing.  How do I get google maps back on my iPad and iPhone?

    I hate the New Apple Map.  The directions are confusing and do not continue by pressing 'next.'  How do I get Google Maps back to my iPad and iPhone?  Thank you.

    Start Safari
    Enter the URL:  http://maps.google.com/#bmb=1
    tap "Go"
    Now that you have Google Maps up on Safari, tap the bottom center icon (box with arrow pointing to the right).
    Select "Add to Home Screen".
    You will now have a Google Maps icon on your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch that will take you to Google maps.
    There are other map services available.  MapQuest, Waze, NavFree, OffMaps, etc...

  • How to understand the "New Item" icon at the bottom of the Project window

    I'm trying to understand that small "New Item" box at the bottom of the project window better. I'm aware that when I bring video clips into my project, if I drag them to this box, PPCS5 will add them to the timeline. I partially understand the positive reasons for doing so, primarily that PPCS5 will correctly identify the type of video being brought into the project. I know that if I select all my clips and drag them to the new item box, that all my clips will be added to the timeline at the same time and all together on the timeline. There are many things I don't understand about it. If I add my clips one by one using the "New Item" icon, they will show up as separate sequences on the timeline. If you try to add another clip at a later time, can that clip not be added using the "New Item" box?  One other question is what would be the advantage in putting clips on the timeline as separate sequences? And one further question is do you drag other items to this box besides video clips? Like music, and still images?

    Dragging something to the New Item icon doesn't just add that something to a sequence.  It actually creates the correct sequence for the something to be added to.
    You do this once, when you need a new sequence.  Anything else you want to add to that sequence you do by other means.

  • Opening Word document templates from the New Document drop down does not open Word

    I have a document library with a number of Content Types attached to it.  Each one has a different Word document attached.  We have an intermittent problem where when you click to open one of these templates from the 'New Document' drop
    down list that nothing happens. The workaround appears to be either open Word first or re-boot the computer.  I think there is a problem with SharePoint not linking in with Word correctly.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
    Thanks

    Hi J,
    Can you please check in your internet explorer whether MS office Add ons enable or not.
    If not enable that and restart your browser and try again.
    Also try to repair MS Office if issue still persist.

  • Does anyone else HATE the new iTunes Software layout?!?!?!?!?!

    I HATE the new iTunes Softare for Windows! They made it exactly like Windows Media Player! If I wanted to use WMP, I wouldn't use iTunes!!!! But I preferred iTunes over anything else. It was much more user friendly. Now its like the rest of them!!! I hate it!! PLEASE, CHANGE IT BACK!!!!!!

    I love the new version of Grid view but some of the other changes feel like they still need some fine tuning. And I miss cover flow even if I didn't use it that often...
    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    Ctrl+B to turn on the menu bar
    Ctrl+S to turn on the sidebar
    Ctrl+/ to turn on the status bar
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store and untick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may let iTunes start up more quickly)
    Should you feel the need to roll back to iTunes 10.7 first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and suppporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.

  • Where is the "Arrange Document" Icon in Top Menu Bar in PS CS6?

    PS CS5 had icons in the top menu bar where the "Arrange Documents" icons were located.  Now I can only find them in the Window drop down list.  Are they still available in CS6?  It was nice not having to find them in the "Window" drop down list.

    Some UI (or is it UX, nowadays) genius at Adobe has reduced accessibility of frequently used features.
    If there are particular arrangements you often use, assign keystrokes to the menu items.

    How do i undo my IOS 6 update because there is no youtube and I hate the new software.  Please i want to have my older version of software back on my ipad2.
    I have installed the youtube app. But i hate it so much i just want my old youtube back.  How can i undo my software update?

    @doclochte
    Well, if you loose functionality und good user experience due to apples and googles quarrels its simply not a matter of bugfixing. If you want to get rid of googles services (Maps, Youtube) you should at least make shure, the user experience stays the same. Without the youtube app custom made for easy iPad use, you need to buy an app to at least get fullscreen view but with a much more complicated navigation (iCabMobile for example). And GoogleMaps is right now still the far better service.
    If google lets me use programs for free (to make advertisements) I'm ok with a beta. If I buy a very expensive apple device I'm definitely NOT ok with this, especially when I'm forbidden to revert to what I had before. PLease let me downgrade to 5.1.1 again at least.

  • How to insert the new toolbar icons to a ALV report in custom container

    Hi,
    I found the exporting parameter for excluding the toolbar icons in the method "set_table_for_first_display" but I didn't find any parameter for including the new toolbar icons. I do not want to include the toolbar icons through the PF-Status, but want to include them with the method.  Please tell me is there any option of including toolbar icons with using the above method.
    Thanks,
