BlackEyedFish Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 After fiddling around with Mac OS X leopard (and reinstallling it about 5 times) I've given up and installed XP over the old partition. As well as vista on the other disk. I changed the icons of some folders on a neutral data partition which wrote a ._icon and icon file to every folder I changed the icon. I can't edit or delete these files at all, I've tried using unlocker, but no luck. Can anyone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Prototype_ Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 It's the same here. I've got an "Icon" and an "._Icon" file. I cannot delete, edit, copy, cut, rename or replace them. Please help me (us). Greetings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
