Hi there,

I am trying to customise my Mac (Mojave) folders using these icons ...

https://www.deviantart.com/necramar/art/Carbon-Folders-258611566

However, using the copy & paste method within the Get Info pane doesn’t work on every folder.

Also, I have tried modifying the main resource Files using the ICNS Files, but when I try and paste the file into the Get Info pane, I’m asked for my password which, once entered, just keeps asking for it again when I try and paste the ICNS File.

Am I doing anything wrong?

How can I modify the main resource icons using the ICNS Files when I’m told the original file is locked and despite entering my password, still won’t accelt the file: just asking for the password again and again?

Thanks for your help!
