How do I get the colors back in Itunes 12 sidebar icons

Hi. I have a hard time getting used to every new itunes version with the user interface getting harder and less friendly than the previous version, probably since itunes 8 or so. I NEED colorful icons to be able to differentiate what is what in the sidebar, and I have always found a work around, since they dropped the much loved colors, in exchange for increasingly monochrome, drab Gray. There is no differentiation even in the grey, no bold letters for titles, headings, album names etc.   In  iTunes 12 however I tried changing the itunes.rsrc file in this version and it really messed my itunes up, to the point where I had to trash it and start all over with new itunes. Does anyone know how to bring the colorful icons back in iTunes 12? This is ONE of the problems, search is not working right for me either for itunes 11 or 12. I would love it if Apple could give us the option of using old Itunes, such as 8 or something similar where everything was more clearly defined and intuitive, at least for me. Thanks!

PS I am using OSX 10.9.5

  • I have an IPhone 4S. My color pictures and all icons have lost their color. How do I get the color back? Did I touch a wrong button?

    I have an IPhone 4S. All my color pictures and icons turned to looking like a negative.  No color! How do I get the color back on my phone?

    Hi ladwwd56,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Is it possible that you may have an Accessibility feature called "White on Black" turned on?
    See page 244 of the iPhone User Guide PDF:
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1539/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.p df
    White on Black
    Use White on Black to invert the colors on the iPhone screen, which may make it easier to read the screen. When White on Black is turned on, the screen looks like a photographic negative.
    Invert the screen’s colors: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility and tap the “White on Black” switch.
    If that is not the case, try restarting / resetting the iPhone:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    If that does not resolve the issue, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:
    iPhone User Guide for iOS 7

  • My bookmarks are black, they used to be colored websites. How do I get the sites back?

    MacBookPro, OS x Lion 10.7.5. My bookmarks are black.  They used to be colored web pages. How so I get the color back? I have the lists of my bookmarks but it's a hassle to go through that list each time I want to go to a bookmark, especially since being used to the nice color sites.

    Thank you for that answer, but it doesn't work that way for me.
    I go to quite a few websites daily, which are also saved in my bookmarks. However, the favicons are still black. Favicons are not added when I go to my bookmarked site.
    To explain this better.... when I go to a bookmarked site I need to scroll down the printed list, OR I simply don't use bookmarks. Instead type in a favorite site in the address when I'm on a different web page.
    To make this short, I am using bookmarks less and less because it simply isn't working and bookmarks without the Favicons isn't simple to use.
    I've searched and found others who have the same issue, and one answer has been to re-do Safari.
    There should be a better answer than that.
    Anyone else know of a fix for this situation?
    Why not use Top Sites? A perfect example of what it was designed for.

  • The new operating system changed the background color of the photos app from black to white.  How do I change the color back to black?

    The new operating system (IOS 7) changed the background color of the Photos App (Camera Roll) from black to white.  How do I change the color back to black?

    You can't. Sorry.
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    You can tell apple that you'd like it and see if they respond....eventually. (you don't get responses from your feedback mails but they have been known to issue changes that users have asked for, such as the ability to mass delete apps)

  • My iphone is broken,and i came to store to change a new one today. When I come home, I found I lost my backup and may be mistake is made during before backup.The information in my previous iphone is really important for me? how can I get the backup back?

    my iphone is broken,and i came to store to change a new one today. When I come home, I found I lost my backup and may be mistake is made during before backup.The information in my previous iphone is really important for me? how can I get the backup back?

    If you don't have a backup then the only possible solution is to go back to the store and see if they can get your old phone and create a backup of that. I know very often that Apple employees will wipe the returned iPhones clean before shipping them back to wherever they ship them.
    When you say your old phone was "broken" does this mean it is dead and won't turn on?
    Do you have a Time Machine backup of your computer, or a clone that might have this info on it?
    Other than that I hate to say you may be out of luck. Time Machine and/or a cloning program performed regularily will inevitably save your a** in situations like this.
    Good luck

  • The bookmarks toolbar is there but has no item buttons on it. How do I get the items back for this toolbar? Also would like to know if the toolbars can be put on the same line to make more room on the page (drag & drop) ??

    The bookmarks toolbar is there but has no item buttons on it. How do I get the items back for this toolbar?
    Also would like to know if the toolbar can be put on the same line to make more room on the page (drag & drop) ?? Like the menu & bookmarks toolbar could/should fit on same line. This would add more page view...
    Floyd Perry
    Thanks

    Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
    * If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button
    You can only move the content from a toolbar onto other toolbars if all toolbars support that feature. You need to check that in the options of each toolbar.

  • How do I get the music back on my iPhone after manually deleting it from the device (to get space for photos/videos)?

    How do I get the music back on my iPhone after manually deleting it from the device (to get space for photos/videos)?  I can sync with iTunes but it doesn't copy these songs back, even though they still appear in my iTunes library.  I can click on the Music link  under 'On My Device' in iTunes and the missing songs all appear to still be on the device, but they are not.  I normally delete using iTunes and do not have this issue.  This time I was out and needed more space to shoot photos and videos so I removed a lot of music from my phone through the Music App.

    The songs I'm trying to reload on my phone are on my PC.  These we had loaded into iTunes.  I can remove them all from the library and then add them all back one by one I imagine.  The problem I'm having is that I removed them manually from the phone, they still appear in iTunes music library yet they won't sync.  I don't want to take the time to compare the phone to my library, remove from the library what's missing on the phone and then add them all back again.  64GB (mostly music) will take a while.

  • How do I get the thumbnails back on a new tab page?

    I get a AVG Secure Search page instead of the thumbnail page now when I load a new tab. How do I get the thumbnails back? I don't have an gear icon on the page to switch it back. This happen after I did a reset of Firefox so that MapQuest would work again which it now does.
    What is interesting is that I get thumbnails if I open a second Firefox window and then click on a new tap page.
    I've install the searchreset addon with no luck. I've run Microsoft Safety Scanner and no problems have been identified.

    Bookmark and use this;
    Download the '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/searchreset/ Mozilla Search Reset]''' {web link}
    This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up
    and then resets your search preferences and home page
    to their default values, and then uninstalls itself. This
    affects the search bar, URL bar searches, and the home page.
    If you still have a problem, you may have add-ware on your system.
    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

  • The app icons I have on the iPad have just come up blank with the app name under it. How do I get the colorful icons to appear? The apps do work though

    The Ipad icons are all just a grey box. How do I get the colorful icons?

    First thing to try is a reboot of your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • I no longer have sound for either my audio books or my music on itunes.  I've tried everything--restarting, updating, re-installing audible app, and restoring the iphone to its factory settings--nothing helps.  How do I get the sound back?

    How do I get the sound back on my iPhone 4?  I've tried all the fixes such as restarting iPhone, reinstalling the audible app, and finally yesterday, I restored the phone to its factory settings.  I still get no sound from music on iTunes or from my audible books.  The phone still rings (I have sound for that) and the voice control speaks to me, and when I'm typing, the automatic text voice speaks so I can hear it but nothing else works. 

    Since it has always been very basic to backup your computer and all it's data, Apple provides no way for you to transfer music from your iPhone back to your computer.  As you know, you can re-download all iTunes purchases, but music that you ripped yourself you'll have to just re-rip again.
    You can try and find 3rd party applications that might help you.  I'm sure you'll pay, however.
    Let this be a very important lesson learned.
    Best.

  • How can I get the tabs back where they belong beneath the address bar , NOT on top ???

    how can I get the tabs back where they belong beneath the address bar , NOT on top ???
    they are on top, which puts the address bar at a variable position depending on how many tab rows exist - makes a moving target for navigating to across my dual 24 inch screens
    I tried your "solution" using about:config and setting browser.tab.on.top or whatever to false, but that had NO effect
    Maybe because TabMixPlus is installed?
    It does allow putting the tabs all the way at the bottom, but I don't like that either.
    PLEASE, give me the address bar at TOP with tabs under that!!!
    Also, I don't want FlashGot to be at the right of the address bar!!!

    why should we use yet another add on to get the tabs back at the bottom? Big mistake.
    Moreover, why make FF look more like Chrome? If I wanted Chrome, i would have installed it long time ago.
    FF 29.0 is NOT an improvement.
    Nasty piece of mud.

    My computer was acting up so i had to restore it and i lost everything. how do i get the songs back that i already paid for?

    The easiest way to get back missing items?  Restore your whole hard drive with all your irreplaceable things like photos in about 20 minutes from the backup clone you make on a regular basis.
    Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this).  Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later.  Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid.  Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
    Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
    Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
    You can re-download your available previous purchases.
