LiteIcon | Customize and Manage System Icons Easily

Posted by Scott | July 31, 2007 .

liteiconLiteIcon is an OS X system icon management application that allows you to easily go in and change many of the default icons.  There are other applications that do this for the Mac such as CandyBar.  However, unlike Candybar, LiteIcon is completely free.

To use LiteIcon, just drag and drop the icon you wish to use on to the current icon within the application.  If you ever decide you dont like the changes you’ve made, LiteIcon has a restore feature that will return all changed icons back to their normal state that they came with in OS X.

If you would prefer to change any icon manually instead of using an application such as LiteIcon or CandyBar, just right click on the icon and select “Get Info”.  Now go to the icon you wish to use and press command+c to copy the the icon and go back to the “Get Info” window  you previously opened.  Click on the icon in the upper left hand corner and it will highlight in blue.  Press command+v to paste the new icon and your done.

Download LiteIcon and begin customizing your OS X icons.
