How to fix low quality icons in dock?

I know it's been around for a while but I still didn't find any solution. My problem is that any new icons that appears in my dock are low quality only. Even if it's native Apple app like Pages...
Any solution how to permanently fix this issue?

I have a similar (or worse) problem.
Many of my icons appear in very low quality. This affects customised folder or hard disk icons, but also applications. Both in the Finder and in the dock.
Even the just updated iWorks icons appear as if a tiny size image has been blowen up.
Funnily, they did appear just fine before installing the update.
It looks like everything that was on my boot disk when upgrading to ML looks still fine, but everything copied afterwards, or mounted afterwards gets these low resolution icons.

  • How to get lower-quality previews when working with Full-HD?

    I'm working with Full-HD video, but I don't need preview (rendered) files to be 1920x1080 too. It takes a lot of disk space and a lot of time to render preview files.
    Is there a way to have them some lower quality? For example 720x405 resolution would be enough.
    But when I want to make a final export, I need to get Full-HD video.
    Thanks!

    Use a Custom sequence and change the previews as desired.

  • Random low rez icons in Dock, Switcher, and Finder?

    Is anyone else getting randomly appearing low resolution app icons since updating to 10.6 or 10.6.1? They change to low rez jaggy fuzzy wherever they're loaded from the system. So they might appear in the Finder, the Dock, the Switcher, or in odd places like the Time Machine hard drive icon.
    Sometimes they're normal and sometimes they switch to low.. I can't tell why.

    Found some information on this Apple thread.
    Also here at MacFixIt.
    None of the solutions presented in either forum are permanent fixes, only temporary. Restarting usually makes the problem go away for awhile, and is the easiest less detrimental solution.
    Hopefully Apple will come up with a fix soon.

  • Blurry/Pixelated Icon on Launchpad - How to Fix?

    I, recently, upgraded my Evernote application to the newest version (5.0.0) and, then, noticed that the application icon was pixelated in, both, the Dock and the Launchpad.  I did a "get info" on the application and the preview showed the same, low-res, icon.
    I reinstalled the application.  No change.  I rebooted my computer.  Now, the dock icon looks fine.  The preview in "get info" is, also, crystal clear.  I looked at the application switcher (command-tab) with the application open.  Again, nice looking high-res icon.
    The Launchpad, however, is still showing the ugly, pixelated icon.
    The only other fix I tried was resetting the PRAM (command-option-P-R).  Still, the Launchpad icon looks ugly.
    What else can I try?  The high-res icon is, obviously, there in the app, but it's refusing to display properly on the Launchpad.
    My MacBook specs are below.  Thanks.

    I managed to fix it.  I deleted the icon from Launchpad using command-option-control and clicking the "X" on the icon.  I dragged the application back into Launchpad.  The icon is, now, displaying at the correct resolution.

  • How do I retrieve the icons in the download map of my 2009 iMac with Maverick. They show up in the finder, but not when I open downloads from the dock.

    I have a 2009 iMac running on Mavericks. Since a few days, when I open the Download Map from the dock, I only see "empty" icon symbols. When I leave the map open the icons re-appear after some 20 seconds. When I re-open the downloads, the icons are empty again.
    How do I get the icons to behave in a normal way again?

    bro I just had this issue its as simple as swiping to the right of each album artwork that does not display in the list view (On your Iphone.) Once you swipe to the right on every album that does not display in the list view you will see the delete option come up. Hit delete! Dont be scared. Do this with every album art that does not show up and then resync your Iphone. Go to the list view again and all of your missing album artwork will be displayed in both the list overview and close up landscape mode.

    when I am opening any application including safari, these icons are not showing in dock, how to get open applications in my dock?

    This could be a plist corruption problem, but I'm not sure.
    Sometimes, the preference list files get corrupted. You can usually just remove them and they'll get re-created. This may require you to reset certain settings. A notable exception to this is the Mail plist which actually stores the Library structure of your email accounts. Deleting the Mail plist will definitely cause lots of problems, but is recoverable.
    The plist files are stored in the /Users/username/Library/Preferences/ folder. They usually have the naming convention of com.company.programname.plist.
    A simple troubleshooting technique is to move a suspect plist file out of the Preferences folder and start up the app, again. It will re-create the plist from scratch.
    In your case, I would try the com.apple.dock.plist. You can use Activity Monitor to kill the Dock app and it will restart. Or, you can log out and log back in.
    There is a new file with Leopard called com.apple.dock.db. I haven't figured out what it does, but you might try moving it out. If anything gets worse, you can move the old file back in replacing the newly created one.
    This all sound somewhat odd, so I don't know if this will help.
