Hello everybody,
I've already posted a query to Panic the maker of Candybar App.
I previously installed the application on my Intel Imac and found out that as expected my sytem was slowing down in booting and in opening up windows and all after the installtion of this small application. It was dead easy to uninstall it on my Imac but the version I tried on my macbook doesn't want to be unistalled in any way.
The application has now even been removed using Appzapper severeal times but unfortunately I cannot revert back to my default icons. Most of them have been reverted to original but some are still customised and cannot revert back such as Movies, Music and other folders.
No one from Panic(candybar) has got back to me with a solution.
Does anyone know a fix for this or should i re-install the operating system from scratch?
I woudn't want to do that as I have Logic installed and that takes a long time to install again and configure correctly.

Please help.

There is no need at all to reinstall the OS.
Have you logged out and logged back in yet?
Have you done a Spotlight search and made sure that all of the files for CandyBar are gone?

Unfortunately not even ony has managed to correct this problem.
I've searched through spotlight all the icons/candybar folders files and erased them but nothing. I've cleared al the caches and optimazied and restored to defaults but these icns are still here.

what a fffffff liberty.

any other advice would be greatly appreciated.

same thing happened to me on my macbook pro. My trial period ended and now my icons are permanently there, unchangeable. I get the feeling candybar was recently adapted to intel macs and is still shaky.
