Important: You can only change the icon of third-party apps, such as Google=
 Chrome, Slack, Photoshop, etc. You cannot change the app icon for Apple-re=
lated apps, such as Messages, Calendar, Music, and Podcasts.

Whether you use a photo or a logo for a file icon or decide simply to chang=
e the color of a folder icon, you have options to make items stand out on M=
acOS. For other customizations, check out how to change the background on M=
ac.

This folder also happens to be where a whole bunch of high quality Apple an=
d Mac hardware icons are located, which are used by System Profiler, for ne=
tworking, and by iTunes, but you can copy them and use them for other purpo=
ses too if you feel like it. For example, we used one of these hardware ico=
ns in a walkthrough demonstrating how to change the Dock Finder icon.

With that said, each system icon .icns file can be modified or changed, eit=
her directly by copying over the icns file, using copy and paste much like =
changing most other icons on the Mac, or even by editing the .icns file dir=
ectly in Preview or another image editing app.



This article shows you how to change the icon of any file or folder on your=
 Mac. Apart from adding a bit of personal style to your desktop, there are =
good practical reasons why you might want to do so.

On Mac OS X, you can change the icon for almost any file on your computer. =
In most cases it's as simple as copy-pasting the image into the right windo=
w. If you want to alter certain special icons such as Finder, you'll need t=
o delve a little deeper into the Apple system.

Once you have a few apps selected, go to send an iMessage and then hit the =
App Store icon again. Swipe left and right to change between apps or sticke=
r packs and up and down to scroll through a particular app or sticker pack.

How to iOS 6-ify Your Lock ScreenPosted January 31st, 2016



When Apple introduced iOS 7 in 2013, part of the changes included a major v=
isual redesign. Although the new appearance is still superior to competing =
platforms in my opinion, a number of people still prefer the iOS 6 and earl=
ier design. That design featured skeuomorphic effects, icons that had a 3D =
appearance, gradient menus and icons, and overall had a more polished and p=
rofessional look.
Of course, iOS does not have a user-accessible file system, and I strongly =
do not suggest jailbreaking, so customizing the appearance of iOS is not ve=
ry feasible. However, there is a way to make your lock screen look more lik=
e the iOS 6 and earlier lock screen using a creative solution.
A comparison of the lock screen, with iOS 6 on the left, and later iOS vers=
ions on the right
This is actually fairly simple to do, and can apply to any wallpaper you wi=
sh to use. All you are doing is putting an overlay image over the wallpaper=
 that you want to use for the lock screen. This should be done on your comp=
uter, though I suppose if you have a comparable image editing program on yo=
ur mobile device, it could still work. To begin, download one of the images=
 below. The left one is for 4-inch screens (iPhone 5-series and 5th or 6th =
generation iPod touch), and the right one is for 4.7 or 5.5-inch screens (i=
Phone 6 or 6S, including Plus models). I'll have a 3.5-inch version for the=
 iPhone 4 and 4S soon, and possibly the iPad. Please check this link for up=
dates.

Now that you've downloaded the above image, find the image that you want to=
 use for your wallpaper, making sure it's the same dimensions as the above =
image, and open it in Preview for Mac or a comparable application on your P=
C. Next, also open the overlay image that you just downloaded. Press Comman=
d + A (substitute control for Command on a PC) to select the entire image. =
Now press Command + C to copy it, and close out of the window. Go back to t=
he Preview window where your desired wallpaper is, and press Command + V to=
 paste the overlay image. That's it! That's all you have to do. As long as =
your wallpaper has the exact same dimensions as the image here, you should =
have a wallpaper that looks very similar to the iOS 6 lock screen. Your fin=
ished product should look something like this:
A finished version, shown on an iPhone 6 running iOS 9
Just save the image in Preview, and then you're ready to send it to your iO=
S device however you like - email, iMessage, AirDrop, etc. Once on your dev=
ice, just open Photos, find the image, and select it. Tap the Share icon in=
 the lower left, and near the bottom you should see options for "Copy," "Sl=
ideshow," and so on. Scroll to the right on this portion of the screen unti=
l you see "Use as Wallpaper," and tap on that. Tap "Set," then "Set Lock Sc=
reen," and now you're all done. You can close out of Photos, lock your devi=
ce and then wake it up again to see the new wallpaper. Hope you enjoy it!
