Peter,

This is in fact an OS X Finder bug that has existed since 10.2.0. It occurs, when trying to replace the icon of a file or folder that already has an icon.

I, and numerous others, have already reported this bug at bugreporter.apple.com and through other channels. Why this bug hasn't been fixed, is an enigma to me...It seems to be pretty straight-forward.

Using the bug reporting facilities is generally a much better way to get a response from Apple, compared to posting to a public mailing list. You may get lucky and get a response from an individual at Apple, but it won't be official, and the Apple employee probably used his spare time to reply (there aren't many Apple people who are paid to monitor the lists).

If you want to be sure to get an answer, you should file a DTS incident. But that costs money.

/ Rgds, David

I got a couple of answers to my problem now and everything points in the same direction. It seems to be a bug in OS X. Can someone at Apple please tell me if this is a known bug and when I will be fixed if that's the case?

Dear list!

I posted a question some days ago regarding my lost icons, see below. I am still having this problem. I have also discovered that it's impossible to copy and paste icons sometimes. For example: If I get info on a file, copy the icon and try to paste it to another info window it sometimes don't work. Sometimes I can paste a icon to a info window, but the icon does not change and I give up. But the next day (after a restart) the new icon is there. I have tried Diskwarrior but it reports no problem. Is this a OS X bug? I need help. Any suggestions?
