I see where you’re going wrong. What I’m doing has nothing to do with creating an actual over-riding program-specific .icn file. You can do that, but it is way too complicated to do to properly (or for me to explain) in order to simply change how Cubase displays its app icon on your desktop, folder or Dock.
You don’t need to fool with any of that. I’m just dealing with making a simple color change to the icon and pasting that image into the app’s Info pane. Once done, it will display the new look on the app and in the Dock (if you drag the modded app into it). You’re not modding the actual Cubase .icn file. You’re only modding how the Mac OS displays it. This is the quick 'n non-invasive to get it done. Get it?
Here are the steps:
I save the modified Preview file somewhere, because if you update Cubase, the icon modification will be overwritten with the update. Additionally, this method permits you to immediately revert back to the original icon by clicking CMD/X (Cut) in the Info pane because you actually haven’t overwritten the program’s official .icn file. When you do that the temporary modified icon image you pasted in will be replaced by the actual Cubase icon embedded in the program.
