One of the side benefits of getting my new iMac is that I get to see how a system looks when it's brand new, before I've messed with it.

When I set up Time Machine on my iMac I notice that the HD icon used looks pretty cool with a circular arrow on top. I didn't download it from some web site, it came that way. Over on my MacBook Pro the Time Machine HD icon is just white. I have no idea how it got that way.

My question is how do I get my MacBook Pro's Time Machine HD icon to look like the one on my iMac? Is there some hidden cache of icons on my system?

Thanks for your help.

I found another way to do it and it was pretty easy. I created a new folder in my iDisk, copied the image from the Time Machine HDD on my iMac, pasted it onto the folder and then did the reverse on my MacBook Pro. :)
