Many moons ago, I downloaded and used CandyBar by Panic Software to change the icons on some items on my iMac. My main HD on my iMac has been Boba Fett for years.
As you can see from the CandyBar page on Panic, they have not supported this software for years. I recently tried switching out the icon on one of my external drives just to see if CandyBar worked and I could not do so.
So my questions are:
Does anyone still use this app?
Would I need to change any permissions on MacOS to enable CandyBar to work again? I looked around but didn’t see anything to change in Settings area?
Does anyone switch out the icons on their Mac anymore?
There’s a great app called Image2icon that lets you create custom graphics for things like folders and drives. It’s available on the Mac App Store and included in Setapp.
Foldery is cool. However, it only creates (and sets) folder icons but not the system icon or drive icons, etc. However, it uses osxiconutils for the actual setting of the icon, so if you already have a icon you want to use, the seticon command of osxiconutils would work by itself.
