Temporary Fix for custom folder icons now working in dock...

First of all, this is kinda simplistic and you will NOT be able to use stacks with it. When you click these icons, the folder will open in finder immediately. All you have to do is create an alias to the folder you want and then drag the ALIAS to the dock. Works perfectly for me.

sorry, title should be not working in dock.

  • Yosemite - custom folder icons

    I made a set of custom folder icons in OS X many years ago. Those folder icons have stuck with me through many revs of OS X, from 10.4 onward - until Yosemite. Now all of my folders (and shortcuts to them) show a blank, generic icon. This happens both on my Mac Pro and my iMac, both of which now have Yosemite installed.
    Where have my customs icons gone? Can I get them back without having to redo the artwork? Can I use my old custom icons in Yosemite?

    I don't think there is as the custom icon information is stored as a separate fork, which SMB has no knowledge of.
    A couple of possiblities are:
    1) Enabling SFM (Microsoft Services for Macintosh) on the windows server. You can have the share mapped via SMB and AFP.
    2) On the server use ExtremeZ-IP http://www.grouplogic.com/products/extreme/overview.cfm
    3) Maybe on the clients use DAVE http://www.thursby.com/products/dave.html

  • Possible temporary fix for mouse scroll wheel problem in Lion

         This is a potential temporary fix for those users of Lion who are unable to fix the reversed mouse scroll wheel issue. I myself have a Microsoft Arc Mouse (not the touch version but the original version) and when I went into the mouse system preferences there was no checkmark box option to return the scroll wheel to its original configuration. When I called Apple about it I was told it's an issue with Lion not recognizing the mouse as being able to reverse the scroll wheel and that Microsoft will need to update the firmware to allow for this change. On a whim, I tried out my wife's Logitech mouse (can't remember the model but it's a fairly recent one) and checked the system preferences. This time there was the checkmark box to allow the scroll wheel to be returned to its original configuration and I could use the scroll wheel as normal. When I plugged my Arc Mouse back in, the scroll wheel had reverted to its original configuration of rotate the wheel down for down scroll and up for up scroll.
         So, for those of you who are unable to correct your scroll wheel through preferences, you might want to try plugging in another mouse, making the correction in system preferences, and then plug your original mouse back in.

    I mean it. Apple makes major changes in the way things have worked for years, then makes that change the default, causing 1m people to struggle. Bad Bad App le.
    There other changes like this in Lion as well, which are arbitrary and are "App le" policy now, which even App le themselves do not follow! (e.g. Cmd-Delete for "Don't Save" in a few App le applications, where 900 million people have used Cmd-<first letter of button> already, for years)
    And yes, I did have to go next door and borrow a mouse. "Why?" they said... "I have a Mac" I said. "<laughter> get a real computer" they said. App le does itself no favors by pulling this stuff.
    Many of us cannot buy new equipment when arbitrary changes are made, and "get a new driver" is a slap in the face, especially when such changes as Reversing scroll for many-millions could easily be done by making the "new way" an Option, not a default.
    Don't get me wrong, Mac and iPhone etc are way ahead of MS and all, but the rabid arrogance inside App le is App aulling.

  • Custom Folder Icons

    Alright, 8330 Curve with Sprint, running 4.5
    When I upgraded from 4.2, I wanted to get rid of the Voice Activated Dialing feature, as well as several other carrier-specific features that I didn't want to take up space.....so I went in and removed the associated files, using a tutorial widely available.  I did know when doing this, that I would lose the ability to create custom colored folder icons.  No biggie.
    Especially no big deal, when I used the standard Sprint theme, which has some very nice looking folders for IM/Social Networks/Entertainment.
    However, I recently changed themes just to the simple BB L theme, and of course, lost all of those icons.  I found a post taken from another page, which gave a tutorial, using BBFileScout to load custom folder icons into the BlackBerry.  However, I have a small problem.  I don't have a subdirectory for "Folders" where it should be - presumably due to the removal of the VAD. 
    Any suggestions?

    I don't think there is as the custom icon information is stored as a separate fork, which SMB has no knowledge of.

    p-crm-now-available  : Not working! => Please check & confirm.
    Just to give you our background...we are SAP Cloud Partners & VARs, hence we are building few prototypes for Customer Demos & POC.
    Per my understanding, its just one of the OnPrem system, either an ECC OnPrem or CRM OnPrem that you can integrate with one C4C tenant at a time, i.e. to one single tenant. In our case, we are trying to integrate ECC OnPrem with C4C system.
    We are in the process of deploying SAP PI as the middleware platform for integration between C4C & ECC/CRM OnPrem., which is going to take few more weeks.
    SAP HCI will be the other approach, but we are currently not familiar with that, hence we have a trial to start in coming week for SAP HCI, so this is going to take some time as well.
    Hence, WebService is the only currently available option for us to build these prototypes, POC for Customer Demos, to show working integration scenarios between ECC OnPrem & C4C system.
    We have been facing some technical issues after setting up necessary communication systems/arrangements on C4C system & trying to do a WS call from SDK also we get error when we do a ping test from within C4C system to check connection.
    Has SAP developed any WS integration between C4C & either of the ECC or CRM OnPrem system? Or is it just PI & HCI which SAP has for integration?
    I'd truly appreciate if you can guide us on creating few integration scenarios (Working ones of course ) using Webservice between C4C & ECC OnPrem system.
    Many Thanks

  • Convert Windows folder.jpg into OS X custom folder icon

    Hello everyone,
    after months reading numerous post on the Web trying to find a way to convert the Windows "folder.jpg" into an OS X custom folder icon, I've come up with a solution using only the shell. Some users proposed using the Automator, which caused me lots of trouble (Spotlight sometimes wouldn't find the folder, or would return a Privacy error, and so on). Therefore, my solution uses only a Shell script with dependencies on some external libraries (most of them allowing to manipulate images and icons).
    Here's the code on Pastebin.
    I hope this will be as helpful for you as it was for me. It allowed me to apply the custom folder icons to thousands of folders, including the local Mac folders as well as the one on external storage (USB or LAN).

  • Potential work around/temporary fix for "backup did not complete"

    Hey guys,
    I was able to backup my phone when I first got it and then I tried backing it up one day and it stopped working... after reading online about some apps causing problems, I decided to try and delete some of the latest ones I installed. Doing one at a time I eventually was able to backup, when I thought I found the "bad app" I re-installed one of the first apps I deleted, wouldn't backup again... turns out it wasn't any particular app (in my case).
    Anyway! all this to say, that I think I found the issue some people are having. If you're application data is more than 675MB (give or take), Blackberry Link won't backup (for me)... I would backup my phone with whichever app at 672MB's, it would backup no problem, as soon as I would install another one, it would boost it up to 677MB's or above and it would be a no go... no particular app... I'm just guess 675MB, seems like it would make sense as a number.
    Anyway, I'm curious if this is the case for other people. What is everyone's application data size at, who are having this issue? If any of you can, try going below 672-675MB and see if it works. Incase you don't know how, to view how many MB's you have, go to Settings within BB Link with your phone selected, and then check "Select data to include in your backup files"... give it a minute or so to load.
    Hopefully this can be a fix for some people out there, until BB releases a patch.
    Mike

    Turns out this may be caused by Android Apps sideloaded. Try backing up just your settings. When you in BB Link click the Phone Tab than Click the Settings Gear and you can change what items the phone backs up. Try just the settings at first.
    If that works and you have Android apps loaded you may need to remove the Android Apps.
    BlackBerry needs to add better error messages or at the very least have error codes.  Not having error codes really makes troubleshooting a pain.

  • Temporary fix for Home Sharing not working!

    I installed Mobile Mouse Server on my Mac.
    Installed the mobile apps on my iPhone 5 and iPad 2.
    With the Mobile Mouse Server running, and the Mac in deep sleep,
    Open the Mobile Mouse app on my device, it connects and wakes my Mac.
    It's been working for a couple days now!

    This has been working EVERY TIME:
    Connect your iPad/iPhone to your iMac via Bluetooth when iMac is awake.
    Now when iMac is sleeping and
    When iTunes shared library doesn't show up, turn on Bluetooth on your iPad/iPhone and click on your iMac connection.
    Now I have found whether or not the device connects to the Mac, the connection to the shared library can now be made through the other apps.
    Try it, it has worked EVEY TIME.

  • Customized Folder icons in the Dock

    There is a problem moving custom icons generated in 10.4. As one example, 10.4 Application and Home icons simply cannot be transferred to the 10.5 Dock without being badly distorted. They work properly but look terrible. The same thing happens with the custom icons that worked fine in 10.4 but do not appear properly in the Dock. I suspect there is a bug here that needs squashing

    I don't think it is your custom icons that are the problem, anyway mine are all fine. If I make an alias of a folder with a custom icon and drag it to the Dock, the custom icon displays just as it always did. If I drag a file with custom icon the custom icon is fine. I suspect your problem is that you don't appreciate the full horror of the new Stacks behavior: if you drag a folder to the Dock Stacks does NOT, by design, display the icon of the folder. Instead it displays the icon of the first item that is IN the folder, plus some nonsense meant to represent the items behind the first item. Think this is insane? So does everyone else (with the possible exception of whoever came up with the idea of doing it this way). Send feedback to Apple:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html/
    And do a search on the topic "Stacks" for various kludgy work arounds.

  • Need a fix for the 'folder last opened date'

    I have been using Hazel [from www.noodlesoft.com] to set the colours of recently opened or modified files to make them easier to spot.
    Within Hazel, I have set rules to monitor files contained in a named folder (and sub-folders contained therein) so I can visually spot what I have recently been working on. The rules achieve this by setting the label colours of:
    • files worked on in the last 2 days to 'Green'
    • unless already set to 'Green', files worked on in the last 7 days to 'Blue'
    • unless already set to 'Green' or 'Blue', files worked on in the last 14 days to 'Purple'
    • remove label colours for all files labelled 'Purple', 'Green' or 'Blue' that were last worked on over 14 days ago
    Hazels works very well and achieves the effect I am after for files contained in that folder and its sub-folders. No problems there.
    The problem I have is in defining a similar scheme of rules to apply to FOLDERS using a rule in Hazel to set the colour of a folder (or sub-folder) by reference to the date on which a folder was last opened.
    For some reason, Finder does NOT update the last opened date for a folder. In fact, I have discovered (by painstakingly getting information a folder at a time) that a number of folders have date anomalies like the example below:
    Date created: 4 Sep 2006
    Modified date: today [which is correct as I deleted a file from in this folder]
    Date opened: 31 Oct 2006 [which ignores that fact I had to open the folder today to delete the file...]
    Any ideas on what could be going wrong here? Or more to the point, how I can fix this? I have run Disk Utility and using Onyx, ensured all three maintenance scripts have been run.
    Any thoughts?

    I am going to have to abandon Firefox and go back to IE. The fact that there has been no response is extremely disheartening. I am quite sure there is some malware involved and don't want to risk ID theft. This kind of problem should be the #1 concern for a browser company. I have regrets because I like Firefox otherwise and think it superior to the other browsers on the market including IE. C'est la vie.

  • Any fixes for drag and drop not working in WAD with IE9?

    I have exactly the same issue as is described in WAD Problem - can't modify and Drag&drop in Web App Designer (WAD) doesn't work but unfortunately I don't have the option of going from IE9 back to IE8.  Has anybody found a fix for using drag and drop in WAD with IE9?
    Edited by: Jason Muzzy on Jul 22, 2011 1:09 AM

    Hi Jason,
    Thanks for replying .
    But I am facing this isssue in Web Application Designer. The link which I have shared shows the behavious of cursor while dragging and dropping
    Drop not allowed ("blocked traffic" sign)
    Drill across (arrow pointing to the right)
    Drill down (arrow pointing down)
    Exchange dimensions (exchange icon)
    Add to filter (add icon)
    Remove from filter (remove icon)
    Reorder list (reorder icon).
    This issue I am getting in Web Application Designer itself.In WAD 7.X ANALYSIS TABLE do we have any option from which we can disable drag and drop of cells because it is destroying the view of report output .
    In WAD 7.X we have option of Activate Navigation in ANALYSIS TABLE but if we disable this our context will get disable and it shows the default Browser context menu.We have not provided any such options so that its original layout will retain back .
    The solution they have mentioned to Disable Drag and Drop is not available in WAD ,its available in Analyzer.
    Please let me know if you have found any solution for this.

  • Custom Folder Icons won't display in Cover Flow

    When I paste a PNG or PICT or JPG file on the highlighted folder image in the Get Info window, the new icon for the folder will appear everywhere - icon view - list view - column view - except Cover Flow - What gives?

    I use a different method to get custom icons on my folders, and they are displaying correctly in Cover Flow. Tried what I presume you are doing: open graphic file in Preview, select Copy, go to GetInfo window of the folder and paste. That folder does not show up in Cover Flow AT ALL, just a blank space. Weird. Definitely a bug.

    Requirement================
    We have made use of modifications to a Discoverer report called 'Oracle Users and Responsibilities'. We use the report to review Oracle users and their associated responsibilities. We would like to see if it would be possible to make another report with fields from the above SQL query. The intent is to note when users last made use of a responsibility (last logged on with a responsibility). The above query needs some revision in the fact that it currently only returns responsibilities a user has logged in with. Ideally, we would like to also return the responsibilities a user has not logged in with. If a date parameter is supplied for a report, the end-user will be able to return all users, their responsibilities, and the last time the users logged in. The attached query can specify a user or the user's creation date; ideally, one would also be able to only pick responsibilities user(s) had prior to a specified date. Thus, if they wished to run a report to return all the users and the last time they logged in with their responsibilities if they have had the responsibility for at least 90 days, he could readily do so.

    Hi,
    You could try this query, but whether it will be quicker depends on how you are using the custom folder in your reports.
