Pages (Mavericks) File Icons Problem

My mother-in-law brought this problem to my attention.
The icons of all the Pages files (both "created" files as well as templates are shown as seen in the attachment - the icon has a block of "distorted" color below it.
Not sure if this was a side effect of the Mavericks upgrade or what.
Any ideas how to fix these icons?

I haven't observed this, has anyone else?
Usual a hashed graphic is a sign of either graphics card problems, or a failed render routine.

Illustrator File icon problems

Okay, I think I really messed things up on my computer. I'm on Windows 7 64-bit and I recently got through uninstalling my CS4 version of the Adobe Design Premium. Unfortunately, doing this changed my file associations and messed up the icons for file types. First my .ai files had no icon and didn't open with Illustrator CS5.1. Then I got that fixed, but .EPS had no icon. Having it open with Illustrator gave it the default .ai icon and not the .eps icon like it was before. Even the file type description is gone, having been replaced by the generic "Adobe Illustrator Artwork 15.1". SVG and SVGZ files also have the same problem.
I've tried modifying the registry in hopes to get the correct icon back but nothing works. I already treid reinstalling the program, too. What do I do from here?

Okay, so the default program thing fixed EPS but the file types program didn't quite fix SVG. Changing anything about SVG changes all .AI files as well, so that means there is still no distinction. It's as if the two formats are somehow one.
I don't know if I changed anything for the worse but there isn't normally a "Adobe.Illustrator.SVG" key in the registry so if I make the .svg files not open in Illustrator, it shows up as expected. It's just that anytime it's associated with Illustrator, it defaults to the regular .ai icon instead of using its custom icon like it's supposed to for other files.

.py file icons problem

anyone know how i can set an icon for all .py and .pyc files like in lubuntu and fedora 15? i used lxde for those and they have proper icons for the files, but i cant figure out how to do it in arch.

seems with the recent upgrade i lost my icons that i had set for this. took awhile to set all the symbolic links too. also i can no longer double click to open the files in scite or idle even though it appears the mimetypes are set correctly
actually when i set the elementary theme it still doesnt work anymore as the links point to a plain text file it look slike. i am unsure what happened to cause this issue though.

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
SO...
When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
Many Thanks!

File Icons changed in Mavericks. How do I change them back?

I am on a MacBook Pro and, since upgrading to Mavericks, the file icons in the finder have become generic grey icons with the file extension on them. I can no longer see the Word files with little blue icons, Excel file icons with little green icons etc. Weirdly, I can still see the colored file icons in Coverflow view and in List view, but not in Columns and Icons. I can also see the colored file icons when selecting a file to attach to an email. In the file information window (clicking command I when a file is highlighted) the icon in the top left corner is the colored file icon.

Well this solution did not work for the Icon View. All the other views show the correct icon (and might have before I changed all view types in Get Info > File Options > Uncheck Show Icon Preview
This worked for fixing the Icon View for me. Pages and Numbers files were fine but not my FileMaker files or Word or Excel (and maybe more). I opened Get Info on one FileMaker document. Just below the Red Yellow Green dots at the top is a tiny icon to the left of the file name. Left click on the icon which looks basically white). You will see a thin blue line around the icon. Go up to the Menu Bar (File Edit View etc) and click on Edit then copy. Then go to the same icon you just copied on the Get Info window and left click then do Edit again from the Menu Bar and Paste. You can also use the shortcuts cmmand c or command v to copy and paste. For some magical reason coping a white icon pasted the correct preview to the icon.
Every single icon of programs that won't display icons properly will have to be fixed this way. I was thinking about using search for file type and grinding it out like orcs or wargs in Lord of the Rings Online. Apple this isn't a good way to make me have Determination.

Greyed-out file icon in Pages on iPhone 4

I somehow ended up with a greyed-out file icon (Pages) on my iPhone 4 after uploading it to the cloud from my Mac. It won't delete and is not recognized as even existing when I attempt to write over it. Any ideas how I might be able to delete it? It's showing a progress bar, but no "progress" is occuring. I've tried everything short of resetting my phone (turned phone off and back on, deleted Pages and reloaded it, turned iCloud off and back on, etc.

Problem went away on its own, I think after I moved some files from my desktop to the Trash and deleted them from my computer.

Problem when I click the "browse to file" icon in the property inspector

Please somebody help me. I am having a problem with Dreamweaver. When ever I click on the "browse to file" icon in the property inspector, it opens up a full size window on top of the Dreamweaver screen that can't be resize. This problem just started. I have shut down my entire system and restarted it and I am still having the problem. Can someone please help me. Thank-you

File icon stuck in Mavericks Finder toolbar

Thanks

Just found the solution. Holding down the command key and dragging it off the toobar.

Pages & Mavericks - "The required index.xml file is missing."

I upgraded to Mavericks a few days ago, and am using the same Pages '09 (4.0.3) I was using with Snow Leopard. I wrote a text document in Pages after I did the Mavericks upgrade, and now it won't open—I get the "required index.xml file is missing" message instead. I tried a workaround suggested in this forum of changing the ".pages" suffix to ".zip," then changing it back to ".pages," but that did no good. However, text documents saved before the upgrade to Mavericks seem to open OK.
How can I rescue my work?
Thanks in advance for your help!

You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Maverick Mail Printing Problem: prints email header on separate page from body of email. Why?!

Maverick Mail Printing Problem: prints email header on separate page from body of email. Why?!

For what it's worth, I can report exactly the same problem. I just recently converted from Outlook for Mac 2011 to Mail. I did the conversion while running Yosemite. I like pretty much everything about Mail EXCEPT that it take 2 pages to print a 1 page email!! The header appears on the top of p.1, followed by a blank space. The message begins at the top of p.2.
If you scale it down, you can get the message to begin to appear on the bottom of p.1, but clearly, Mail is inserting BIG SPACE between the header and the message. Changing the display fonts for Mail had no apparent effect (except that the font DID change, of course)....still a BIG SPACE between the header and the message.
Coming to Mail for the first time, I would have assumed that this was just a quirk of Mail, but am I understanding that some of you Mail users out there USED TO NOT have this problem?? I think it's pretty clear that it's Mail that's causing the problem, not the message, because I went over to my old Outlook and printed the same couple of messages with no such space between the header and the message. So Mail is inserting a space into the print formatted email message that is NOT there in Outlook's print formatted same message.
Be really nice to get rid of this problem, but my Apple Care free support has expired. Not sure I want to pay for something that's generic to Mail!! Anyone else made any progress on this?

Problem with the PNG file icon

Hello. This is the first time I'm posting something here, so please be merciful. :) Yesterday I saw that the file icons of the PNG files are not the blue ones (like we all know them, after installing Photoshop CS3), but the default Windows (I'm using Windows XP SP3) icons. I mean like when I don't have a program to open a given file, that is how it looks like. But when I double click on the PNG file it opens right away, so in my eyes there is a problem, of some kind, with the ICO file itself. The strangest thing is that this ICO file is not missing, deleted or moved! This happened only with the PNG files. All other Photoshop related files are ok and have their respective icons. Can someone tell me how to change the PNG file icon, so I can choose manually the ICO file.

@roshlioto This is a windows issue NOT Photoshops. So wrong place on the Internet.
However, you right click on the shortcut/icon whatever, (in Windows) and choose the icon/app you wish to associate with a given file.

Ps CS6 Problem: Pixels put in Mac file icon have not been converted to the profile of the icon

Pixels put in a Mac file icon image have not been converted to the colour profile of the icon image.
For example, when ProPhoto or Adobe RGB pixels are put in an icon image with no profile or "Generic RGB" profile, the result is a washed-out appearance to the icon.
Apple recommends sRGB (PNG) images in icons. Adobe, please comply with that.
Edit: I realise that CS5.1 did the same as CS6.

Makes you wonder whether the person who programmed the icon generating code... Nah, I won't say it. Down boy.
