Ok for some reason in my home folder my Document's folder icon is the iChat logo. This used to happened to me a lot on my PC, where folder/file icons would change on their own at times. Any ideas?



[EDIT] Nevermind, a reboot fixed it. Any ideas to what may have caused it? :confused:
 
Yeah, sometimes things go nutty -- I've had that too. Quitting Finder through the Activity Monitor usually seems to work. Rebooting works too.

I don't know why it happens though.
 
I have had a similar issue with my iPod showing up in Finder with the hard drive icon. It didn't get fixed until I ran the CRON jobs and repaired permissions (don't know which one fixed it - but one of them did).
