Doesn't work on Yosemite 10.10.0, but Count me among the haters of the Microsoft blue. This application does not seem to work on Yosemite 10.10 (release). It bounces and opens a terminal window but nothing further. (Effort appreciated anyway).

Have you noticed that when you’re browsing through folders on the Mac that icons are actually previews of images and even live playable videos?This sure makes the OS X Finder snazzy looking, but in some situations where tons of images and video files are contained within single folders, it can have the unwanted side effect of general sluggishness.

Excel for mac strikethrough shortcut. However, looking at the script itself, and using the resources in your package, I can achieve the intended effect. You could do pretty much do this without knowing terminal. What you're doing is just replacing.icns files after making a backup of their containing bundle, clearing system icon caches, and rebooting. The process would be more or less as follows: 1.

Show package contents on the downloaded 'YCF' file from above. Navigate to Contents>Resources>icons. Open another Finder window and use the 'Go To Folder' command to go to: /System/Library/CoreServices/ 3.

Backup the file: CoreTypes.bundle (put the backup anywhere safe, including that directory with another name, indicating it is the original 10.10 bundle. Wolf's script makes it an invisible file called '.CoreTypes.bundle.old') 4. Show package contents on that file and navigate to Contents>Resources/ 5.

Copy the desired icon replacements from Step 1 to replace equivalents in Step 4. Clear icon caches. There are cache cleaning utilities that can do this, or you can copy and paste into terminal the 3 lines under 'echo -e 'Clearing icon caches.'

' one at a time. You'll need to authenticate a lot. To restore, just delete the entire CoreTypes.bundle file and replace with backup. Clear icon caches same way and reboot.

* If you have access to a 10.9.x system, you could instead get the.icns resources from the CoreTypes.bundle on that system. ** note the second command generated an error for me, but didn't seem to matter.

I can relax again now. For those who what to change individual App icons back also and have a backup of your old OS around, I wrote a script to do that for yous (and me), with some help from Wolfgang's script above. You can download the script from.

The script goes through every App in your old OS's Applications folder and if the same App exists in your current Applications folder it will replace any icons it finds in it with the old ones. It does not create a backup, but does ask for confirmation of each overwrite.
