[QUOTE="thesmrtguy, post: 1596179, member: 330124"] So after I went through the Yosemite upgrade, I now have seemingly random folder icons missing all over the operating system. I don't believe there are any application or preview icons missing - only folder icons. I have done a pretty thorough forum search and have deleted the com.apple.finder.plist file and restarted several times and that didn't help. I also found some threads where users were asked to create a new user and log in under that user to see if the problem persists. In my case, everything is fine under another user. But in those threads, I never saw any reply on what to do in the event that everything is fine under another user. I'd really like to stay logged in under my usual user since I have all my goodies the way I want them there if possible. Does anybody have any suggestions on how to get the folder icons back? Here's a screenshot of what I'm seeing (notice one folder icon there and tons of them missing): [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/j6h15qupk5jep35/Screen%20Shot%202014-07-30%20at%209.25.20%20AM.png[/url] [/QUOTE]
