Have you ever wondered how to change the ugly blue folders on your Mac? Here's how!
I have always wished I could change the colors of the folders on my MacBook Pro's desktop but could never figure out how. I have FINALLY figured it out and felt the need to share this hack with everyone! I wish I knew about this years ago...
To change the folder color...
Right click on the folder
Click Get Info
Click on the folder icon in the Get Info panel and copy (Command+C)
Open Preview
When in Preview, go to File and then click New from Clipboard — this will open an image of the blue folder
Go to Markup and click the Adjust Colors icon (looks like a mountain)
Use the sliders (temperature, exposure, highlights, saturation, etc.) to adjust the colors to your liking
When you have the color you want, copy the new colored folder
Go back to the Get Info panel, click on the folder icon in the Get Info panel and paste (Command+V)
To use an icon as a folder image...
Find an icon image with a transparent background
Right click on the image and copy
Go to the Get Info panel of the folder, click on the folder icon in the Get Info panel and paste (Command+V)
To use the same folder color on other folders...
Right click on the folder that has the color you like and go to Get Info
Click on the folder icon in the Get Info panel and copy (Command+C)
Right click on the folder that you want to change the color of and go to Get Info
Click on the folder icon in the Get Info panel and paste (Command+V)
Voila! Now you have pretty folders!
