Location of Original Snow Leopard/Leopard Icons?

Hey guys,
Quick question - are copies of the original OS folder icons maintained anywhere inside the OS? Where might those be? I customized my Applications folder, Documents folder, Music, Photos, etc. some time ago and would like to go back to the originals but naturally didn't save them anywhere. Might anyone know where I can find them?
Thanks.

Select the item you want to restore the default icon for, hit File > Get Info, click the icon you have, and tap delete. The original icon will be restored.

The only observations are that the backup drive is deemed too small and the quite long list of diagnostic reports dated between Jan 18, 2015 (which I believe is the day I upgraded to Yosemite) & today the latest Yosemite update was installed on Jan 28, 2015
Any further assistance will be appreciated

HT3777 I have a Window 7 HP laptop. I want to install Snow Leopard on an external hard drive as the memory space on my laptop is very less. I have the original snow leopard disc and I think it's a retail version . Please guide me through the installation.

I have a Window 7 HP laptop. I want to install Snow Leopard on an external hard drive as the memory space on my laptop is very less. I have the original snow leopard disc and I think it's a retail version . Please guide me through the installation in details. Can you also please let me know about this boot camp.

You cannot. From a legal standpoint, the license agreement for OS X mandates that you run OS X only on Apple hardware. HP is not (yet) owned by Apple.
From a technical standpoint, your HP laptop doesn't use EFI, but rather an early predecessor called a BIOS. Apple is the only vendor of consumer computer hardware that uses EFI; other vendors reserve EFI for use in servers.
Secondly, Apple's operating systems support a rather limited number of configurations of video hardware and mainboard chipsets directly since they need only support those systems that they manufacture. You cannot use Windows software or drivers on OS X, so prior to installation, you would need to write your own hardware drivers for your laptop, create an OS X drive image on a Mac, and then modify that image with your drivers before putting it in the HP.
It will be simpler (and legal), to simply purchase a used Mac. Apple's online store has refurbished MacBook Airs starting at $850 and Mac Minis for $700. If you go to e-bay or craigslist, you'll find used Macs for considerably less.

My mac originally snow leopard I upgraded to lion and want to sell it with Lion

My mac originally snow leopard I upgraded to Lion and want to sell it with Lion ,can I do this?

In order to install Mac OS X 10.7 you will need:
Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
2GB of RAM
Mac OS X 10.6.6 or later with the Mac App Store installed
At least 4GB of additional disk space to accommodate the download, but more is obviously recommended.

How can I remove the OS X Yosemite and reinstall the original Snow Leopard?

I recently installed OS X Yosemite and it is very slow and most of all it will not allow me to use Word and Most of my work is done on WORD. Can any one help? Can some one lead me on how to uninstall OS X Yosemite and reinstating the original Snow Leopard?

If you made a Time Machine backup or bootable clone of Snow Leopard, restore it onto a blank partition or drive. If not, insert a Mac OS X install DVD, restart with the C or Option key held down, and install it onto a blank partition or drive.
To erase or repartition the internal drive, use the Disk Utility, which is accessible from the Utilities folder(choose it from the Finder's Go menu) or when booted to the DVD or recovery partition.

Have reformatted my Imac using original discs (installed leopard (10.5)) tried to do the software update but it cant download the itunes update and when it gets to the configure update screen after restart for main update, it just gets stuck. HELP!

have reformatted my Imac using original discs (installed leopard (10.5)) tried to do the software update but it cant download the itunes update and when it gets to the configure update screen after restart for main update, it just gets stuck. HELP!
The configure bar gets about an 1/8 full and then just does nothing. I think its lists the update as combo update? cant remember with out checking.
I have tried to do the disk verify and repair but this has made no difference.
Please let me know what i need to do, I have reformatted the mac just to start over as was clogged with a lot of useless data, I had installed lion (10.7) from the app store previously and now cant seem to find a way to re install lion. I hope I dont need to pay for it again?

If you erased your hard drive, you'll need to reinstll OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard to access the App store. You won't have to pay for OS X 10.7 Lion again. Did you try booting to the recovery partition by holding the command and r keys down? If that's still there, you can reinstall OS X 10.7 from there.
If you're looking to install the current iTunes, you need OS X 10.6.8 at a minimum.
If you're still trying to update OS X 10.5 Leopard, you can download the combo update from here. Download, use Disk Utility to repair permissions, apply the update, then repair permissions again. That will take you to OS X 10.5.8.

Setting the Software Update Server on Snow Leopard, Leopard and Tiger

I have made an app that will set the Software Update Server on Snow Leopard, Leopard or Tiger. It will set the Software Update Server by checking the Server's version to see if it is compatible with your OS version. If you try to use a Leopard (no Snow Leopard Hack (See http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10297359#10297359)) or Tiger Server with Snow Leopard it will say it is not compatible. If it is it will set it. If you are trying to use a Tiger Server with Leopard it will set it but you will only get Tiger updates.
The app is beta, if you find any problems or have any comments please reply.
Download: http://iwczone.co.uk/projects/iSetSU/

You might want to look into throwing Software Update Enabler onto your clients.
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/18059
Basically, it's just a little app that points the client in the direction of the Software Update Server - you just enter the IP of the server into the config field. With a standalone server I don't think you can get the clients to see the server without something showing them the way.
It's really very tiny and simple - I believe it just edits a com.apple.softwareupdate.plist or some such, but it made life a lot easier for us in our environment.
Hope that helps.

Cannot Locate the Original File ? ?- Help Please

Hi ,
I have Consolidated my Library to New folder on my External Hard-Drive. so i Know that all my music is in One palce..
I have a Problem, If i try and play a Track, It Now get a message saying Cannot Locate the Original File..& has this ! against the track..???
What has gone wrong ?
Many thanks

Unfortunately I'm in the same boat. Somehow I cannot locate over 30 GB of music that just disappeared?!
Moved the iTunes folder from my Music folder from the HD to my 250 GB external drive. I did not rename it. Kept it the same name. Went into the Advanced folder in iTunes Preferences and chose to use the external drive as my source for music. However, I noted that an iTunes folder always reappeared in my Music folder on the HD. Didn't realize that I had to Consolidate libraries until later on, but did so the next day as I attempted to figured out why it wasn't working ("cannot locate original file"). When I open iTunes, all of my songs and playlists are listed (I assume this is cache), but none will play except for a few random artists (most have "!"). When I go back and look at the actual iTunes Music folder, it has only these random artists listed (I assume these are the (only?) original files?).
Not sure where everything else went when I haven't deleted any iTunes files? I've read quite a few threads with this same problem without any real answers. When I use Spotlight to locate the original songs, I get zero found.
Is there any easy answer as to where my songs went or am I looking at taking this Mac in for some file retrieval.
Many thanks to anyone that can help.

Diappearing photos replaced by an exclamation point within a triangle. Prior to loading Lion I could put the image number in finder and locate the original file for that photo. How do I restore photos now?

I had problems with photos disappearing and being replaced by an exclamation point within a triangle. I can see the photo in the thumbnail summary but when you click on it, the screen goes black and the exclamation point within a triangle appears along with the info on the original image number (i.e., img_1120.jpg). Prior to loading Lion, I could go to Finder, enter the image number and locate the original file for that photo. I could then restore it for editing, copying into Print Shop directly, etc. That no longer works after installing Lion. How do I restore photos now? I have 100s of photos that I have been going back to the original files and restoring and I am frantic that I will no longer be able to get to the original files. Please help! Thanks

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
Regards
TD

How can I locate the original .CR2 / Raw file from Photos in finder?

How can I locate the original .CR2 / RAW file from Photos in the finder window? I would like to know a easier way to open my files and use them in Photoshop than having to go to the Pictures folder, right clicking "show packaged contents", and manually searching for my CR2's / RAW's. It is also ridiculous to have to export the RAW file to my desktop, and then take it into Photoshop or another photo editing program. I was able to do this in iPhoto and find I cannot do so in Photos. Please help? Can you please consider adding a right click function that says "Show Original file in Finder". That would make it so much easier and better for those of us who want a simple way to access the original files and use them in other editing programs. At least with iPhoto you could go to the top menu / preferences and find your items.

http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html is the place for feature requests and feedback
Rather than use the 'Show package Contents route, the supported and safer way is to export the unmodfied original.

Moving location of original file

I have a referenced library as I am sharing photos on a server between multiple computers (Mac and PC's). I need to change how a couple of folders are organized on that server. However, I don't want to break the reference to those files in iPhoto. How would I go about doing that? I don't want to lose the keywords, faces, descriptions, etc. that are with the photo in iPhoto.
Thanks!

hmmm....when I move a complete folder, I can't even tell iPhoto how to locate the new folder. Here's what my specific scenario is.
I have scanned a bunch of my Grandmother's slides. I put a roll of slides in a folder called "January 1982 D3" which is the label on the slides. However, I realized that I needed to change this a little to make it match with the physical box they were in. So, I created a new folder called "KN Slide 5" and put a physical label on that box. I now need to move the folder, "January 1982 D3" into the folder "KN Slide 5". I have tried moving it in Finder and then going into iPhoto to try and pull up each picture and point it to the new file location. However, when I click on the picture, I just get the big gray box with the ! in it. It doesn't ask if I want to locate the original file.
I just tried creating the new folder "January 1982 D3" in the "KN Slide 5" folder. Then, I moved the original files from one folder to the other without deleting the original folder. Then, in iPhoto, I clicked on the picture and it asked me to find the original file which I did. I clicked on a couple more photos to try and confirm that every photo in the album was fixed. I didn't try them all, though. Then I deleted the original file. When I went back into iPhoto, any picture I had clicked on before deleting the old folder worked fine, but I had the same problem as originally said with the others (just the !).
So, I tried it the same steps as above, but before deleting the original folder, I selected all the photos in iPhoto, did a "Rescan for location". Then, when I deleted the original folder, all the photos were fine.
So, it seems that if the original folder still exists, you can remap the location of the original photo. But, once you delete that original folder, you can't update the location. And, you need to do something with each photo to point it to the new location like I did with the rescan.
It's tricky. I wish iPhoto was better with referenced libraries. For me, I don't have another option and I really like the features of iPhoto, but am getting frustrated with some of the limitations. I am used to using Adobe Photoshop Elements Organizer on the PC which does these things better.

Locating lost original files, I lost purchased songs

Locating lost original files. I can no longer listen to several songs I purchased. I get a message that the "original file cannot be located." What to do?
Thank you,
Hunter

If the upgrade to Vista somehow erased the files, you'll need to restore them from your backup or, if a feature of the country you're in, download the content again from the iTunes Store. See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519
Note that movies can be re-downloaded only in the US as of right now, and then not all movie studios have granted that license.
