Some desktop icons not showing up

[ebsseattle]

Toggling "icon preview" option in View Options doesn't make any change, so I've ruled that out.

After using Migration Assistant to transfer to a new computer, my Final Cut Pro icons are showing up as just plain white page icons instead of the FCP icon. I've tried going to a working FCP icon, copying and pasting into the "bad" icon, but when I do that the pasted icon still shows up as a white sheet.

Any ideas why or how to fix it?

Have you reinstalled FCP on the new Mac?

The long way to fix this is to get info on a working icon, select the icon image in the get info window and use CMD+C or copy, then get info window on the non working icon and select the non working icon in the get info window and use CMD+V or paste.

I haven't reinstalled FCP. I let the migration transfer all my files over so didn't need to reinstall.

When I look at other icons for FCP, they show up fine. But all of them show this blank document when I Get Info and look at the icon there. So the long fix you mentioned won't work, unfortunately.
