How should I do for my Tab Bar icon???(For iPhone 4)

I have already had the design. However, there are two resolutions:
30 x 30 pixels
About 60 x 60 pixels (high resolution)
Are they the same way to implement?
What is the implementation there???
I tried to put the icon file(png file) in my resources section of my Xcode, and then add the file from the attributes window of the tab bar. But It turned out that the image couldn't be shown, it was a square of gray color, no lines, no figures!
How come? What should I do?
Thanks a lot!!!

From the linked document:
For tab bar icons, create an icon in the following sizes:
For iPhone and iPod touch:
About 30 x 30 pixels
About 60 x 60 pixels (high resolution)
For iPad:About 30 x 30 pixels
Note: The icon you provide for toolbars, navigation bars, and tab bars is used as a mask to create the icon you see in your application. It is not necessary to create a full-color icon.
Use Preview, GraphicConverter, etc....see the Mac App Store for image editors and add an alpha channel to your image...size it, and add it to the bundle.

  • How does Apple get their tab bar icons so sharp?

    Looking at the iTunes app on my iP4, the tab bar icon's are extremely sharp.  Anyone know how those might be done?
    Most doc's on the subject say that we should use (approximately) 30x30 pixel's at about 72 dpi.  I do that and my icon's end up looking very jagged.
    There must be more to this to get the razor sharp icon's Apple produces.
    I have used Photoshop and am currently using Inkscape, but both produce similar jagged results.
    Any comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    I found a tut on using Omnigraffle ($99) to create sharp tab bar icons but thankfully I did not take the plunge because the results are no better that what I am currently gettting using Inkscape.  Photoshop is not any better, but in truth, I have not even looked into anti-aliasing in that app.
    I've never heard of Fireworks, but I'll take a look at it.
    These are my results using Inkscape, but I think they could be much better.  Grab is from a 320x460 png.
    Thanks for your comments.  I appreicate the help.

  • Bar icons for wireless and menue arrows not appear

    bar icons for wireless, bluetooth, volume and menue arrows not appear

    What other items do you have there? There have been some 3rd party applications whose menu bar access has caused problems with the existing menu bar items. If you have 3rd party items, try removing them from the menu bar and seeing if the problem is resolved.

  • How can I get the Index tabs to show for each page that is open in the window like on the older versions. I close a window and it says I have tabs open but the tabs are not visible. How do I set it like the older versions? This was easy to manage

    The index tabs were on some kind of toolbar just below the bookmark toolbar and you could see what was open in multiple tabs. I'm not referring to rolling over the Firefox icon for the Windows 7 thing, that's a pain. These index tabs were in plain sight. No matter what I try in Firefox 8, they won't appear.

    the tabs were move to above the navigation bar, where the menu bar was. They hardly look like tabs there, but you may have turned off the tabs bars. View (Alt>V) > Toolbars > Tabs Bar

  • How do I turn off the tab bar in FF 24 when only one window is open?

    I have just updated to FF 24.0 from FF 20 with Tab Mix Plus already installed. (OSX 10.6.8) From the Firefox Preferences menu, Tabs box, I have set the "Hide the tab bar:" option to "When I have only one tab." I have also gone to the Tab Mix Plus option box and set the drop down to the same value. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the desired effect. Firefox opens to my home page with a tab at the bottom. (I prefer the tabs at the bottom and that setting still works.) With only one page open, that tab is completely unnecessary, takes up space, and just plain bugs me.
    Now, here's what I have found. Once I've started Firefox, if I go to the Tab Mix Plus options box and select "Hide the tab bar: Always" and then set the option back to "When I have only one tab" I can enjoy one page without the tab bar, that is, until I've opened several tabs and then closed all but one. Then I see the tab bar stubbornly remain. An incompatibility between FF and Tab Mix Plus, perhaps. Is FF 24 not letting Tab Mix see the number of open tabs? Dunno. But I can't seem to solve it.

    Are you saying that the problem lies not with Firefox but with Tab Mix Plus? Tab Mix worked up through FF 20 to my knowlege. And I see from other questions that the persistant tab bar was an issue with FF 23 as well.
    Please note, that setting aside the extension issue, the Firefox preference Tab option should turn off the tab option when there is only one window open without any help from addons or extensions. I have disabled Tab Mix Plus, and set the FF option correctly, but the problem remains. As I see it, FF is not working as this user expects it to and is (slightly) broken.

  • The bar icon for downloading that appears next to "trash" and the "bootcamp" icon are gone.   How do I get them back?

    This format confuses me.   I intended to simply ask a question but then this discussion window opened up and my question appears as though it were a topic.
    Can we ask a question without beginning a discussion?   Then I am chided for trying to post a "blank message".   I am only asking a question.   What is all this talk of messages anyway?
    My question is:   The icon next to "trash" that shows downloading is gone.  The bootcamp icon is also gone.   How do I get them both back.
    Thanks

    Welcome,
    If you are refering to the Dock Icon which showed you your Downloads folder then open a Finder Window on your Home folder and drag the Downloads folder to the dock. It will create an Icon for the folder.
    Not sure about the Bootcamp icon, don;t use it but if there is a Bootcamp folder the procedure should be the same.
    regards
    BTW Starting a discussion is the same as asking a question.

  • How do I manage where the tab-bar is displayed in Firefox 29?

    The config setting (browser.tabs.onTop set to false in about:config) is not working in Firefox 29 -- Please have the Developer Team fix this.
    By not correcting this, the "new" Firefox has eliminated useful features, notably, the ability to place the tab bar at the bottom of the Header Area.

    Thank you... That Add-On works (for anyone else reading this, after installing the Add-On, you MUST go to the Add-Ons page, and EDIT the OPTIONS for this Add-On.)
    Too bad the FF Developers didn't figure this out; now we have to install yet another Add-On...

  • How can I restore the App Tabs I created for 10 different window sessions (ie 10 app tabs x 10 sessions)

    When restarting FF only the last window of app tabs is opened. All others appear lost. Is there a way to save each window of app tabs to a desktop icon for eg. and use the name as the Icon label? Or in Bookmarks "Restore all windows with App Tabs"

    Thanks for offering to help, kisuke3.  Unfortunately, neither safe mode nor a new user account solves the problem.
    I just received this information from the Chemical Abstracts Service that provides the web-based SciFinder chemical structure and literature search software.  I'm not using OS X Lion, so I'm not sure if the comment about Safari 5.1 being "unable to run Java-based applications" applies under OS 10.6, but it might explain my problem?  I plan to check the links below, and they might help others having difficulty under OS Lion. 
    "On July 20, 2011, Apple Inc. released new versions of their desktop
    operating system, Mac OS X Lion (version 10.7), and their Internet
    browser, Safari (version 5.1). Currently, Safari 5.1 is unable to run
    Java-based applications like the SciFinder structure drawing editor.
    This problem is not restricted to SciFinder.
    Customers who have upgraded to Safari 5.1 and wish to draw and search
    structures or reactions in SciFinder should either use Firefox or a
    previous Safari version until this browser problem is addressed by
    Apple.
    Mac OS X Lion is the first Apple OS upgrade to ship without a built-in
    Java runtime extension (JRE). SciFinder users who have upgraded to Mac
    OS X Lion can download the latest Java JRE from the Apple website at

  • HT2490 How do I make the top tab bar stay on the screen all the time

    How do I make the top bar stay on the screen all the time?

    "Top tab bar"?
    The top of the screen is where the applications menus appear on the left and system icons (time, volume. etc) appear on the right side.
    This entire area is "covered over" when you enter into "Full Screen" mode. You can expose it while still in full screen by moving your cursor over the area.

  • How to disable "Double Click on Tab Bar to Open New Tab" feature?

    Since I upgraded to FF3 I've noticed this very annoying feature with tabs. If you double-click the 2-3 pixel wide bar just beneath tabs, it opens a new empty tab and sets the focus to that new tab (Which means I then have to go close that tab before going back to the tab I originally wanted). I happen to do this a lot by mistake (I go to click on a tab, but haven't clicked high enough, and of course, it doesn't change to the tab, so I unconsciously click again, which activates a new tab). I never open new empty tabs (alt-enter + middle click), and I have tabs to load in the background (i.e. to not *steal* the focus), so everything about this feature serves as an annoyance to me. Is there anyway to disable this "feature" (Either by disabling it, or making the width of the bar 0. I don't care either way)?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I upgraded to FF3

    You can hold down the mouse button on a scroll button a bit longer to initiate scrolling multiple tabs.<br />
    Otherwise you need to wait longer between the clicks on the scroll button.<br />
    If you click twice on a tab bar scroll button too fast then you perform a 'page up' or 'page down' and the tabs scroll a tab bar width like you noticed.
    I'm not sure what you mean with new feature because this is the behavior in Firefox 3.6.x as well.

  • The tabs and icons for org. tabs is stretched vertically, the icons are triple row! Also no x in the right top corner.

    When looking at the screen, the tabs are 3 times higher than any of the other browser areas (address bar), favorite locations etc. The icons to the right for organizing tabs are repeated vertically 3 times! Additionally menu issues. I have no menu, but just a tab marked "Firefox" in the upper left. If I take the menu off, I lose my bookmarks as well! I tried to restart in safe mode using:
    firefox -safe-mode
    But that did not work. Also using the "Alt" key did NOT show my menu even for a second.

    I'm not sure what you mean by "connection scale". If you are referring to the padlock, this has been replaced by the site identity button, for details on using it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button
    The Home button by default has been moved to the right hand side of the navigation toolbar, you can move it back. For details of how to do that see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/how-do-i-customize-toolbars
    If any buttons are missing, you can restore them as shown here - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Back+and+forward+or+other+toolbar+items+are+missing

  • Tab bar icons are not loading. (bookmarks bar icons ARE)

    In the last week (or so, I don't know exactly when this started happening) the icons on my tab bar started first of all, not refreshing - if I loaded a site onto a tab that had previously been showing a favicon the new icon wouldn't load - and then not loading at all.
    I have a desktop PC and a laptop, both running Windows 7, both were running Firefox 4 but I've just upgraded the laptop to 5 to see if that fixed the problem. it didn't. I've tried Check Places, deleted places.sqlite - places.sqlite-journal wasn't there so I couldn't delete that; checked browser.chrome.favicons;true
    browser.chrome.image_icons.max_size;1024
    browser.chrome.site_icons;true
    which were all OK.

    Firefox Help already had an answer for me - should have looked better: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/latest-firefox-issues#w_icons-missing-in-the-bookmarks-menu
    IT WORKS PERFECTLY NOW!!! THANK YOU!

  • How does a user activate a menu bar icon?

    Hello everyone, how great is it to assign hotkeys for your application menus.  Yet... for the more interesting users like me, we need to also activate menu bar icon settings, particularly the 'show ink window' in my case.  Respectively iv'e tried every corner in the world for another way of activating that besides the point and click method everyone is forced to use... and came up with no answer... so i figured, what about Terminal? maybe... just maybe there is a Terminal(OS X native command-line tool) command for this, if anyone knows please share!!
