MacTricksAndTips Daily Email, Today: Location Of Mac OS X System Icons & More |  |
| Location Of Mac OS X System Icons Posted: 23 Jul 2013 11:19 AM PDT Hey, You can access any Mac icon on your system by opening the Get Info pane, selecting the icon and copying it to your clipboard. If you want to access the system icons, such as the laptop symbols, the warning triangle, folder designs, the generic icons such as disks, the ‘everyone’ icon used in Get Info, plus many others you can. It is very simple as every icon is stored in one folder. Find System IconsTo find system icons open Finder, select Go from the menu bar, and open Go To Folder. Enter the following address, copy and paste it into the box.
When you hit enter a folder will appear with every icon you want. To save out the icon you want, double click it to open it within Finder. Then select File > Save As (hold down alt key) and save the icon as a png in your user folders. You now have access to many default icons used through out your system.  This little, core, folder has many icons that your Mac uses. I assume that if you change an icon in this folder, it will be changed on your system. I have not tried it, however I wouldn’t recommend it. Changing Icons and Finding App IconsI recently published a video on finding app icons and changing application icons. You can watch them on Youtube or with the videos below. Want to catch up on the latest Tweets about this site, follow me on Twitter. You can like this site on Facebook. |
