Icon Developer and Packager help, Please
Thursday, March 31, 2005 by boopish | Discussion: New Users
Last week I had a hard drive problem and had to re-install everything. Luckily I had most things backed up (lost a few on my newest things though 
) but here's my problem...some of my icons were saved as icon library files. I thought they would automatically be imported into Icon Packager when I reinstalled (they were saved in the icon packager themes file). I was mistaken. They didn't show up, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get these library files into IP files!!! Do i have to use icon developer and do each one individually??? I thought there was an option somewhere to import icon libraries...any one have any hints or rules for doing this? Thanks Bet

Tried that...it ignored the library file completely!! I keep getting a msg that no icon package was found in the file, but when i open it in Icon Developer, it shows up as an icon library. Any ideas as to how to fix this? I already tried an uninstall and reinstall via stardock central. Nothing changed. I am about ready to give up on icons!!!

Yeah, sorry bet, you might have to redownload those sets, I don't know. If you decide to do that and there are some you can't find, just email me with the names and I'll see if I can track them down for you. good luck

Well, had to do a clean install of windows to get rid of the problem. Since my printer installed some extraneous stuff that I never used, I uninstalled it, and then it kept trying to re-install and was messing up alot of stuff. Arggh! But all is well now, and my icon libraries are back and working properly.
