Custom X icons for data CDs burned with Toast
Authored by: gisingh on Dec 17, '03 10:25:25AM

I have tried everything that was mentioned in this article to generate the custom icon on Mac OS X using Toast 5 but was unsuccessful

Please let me know what am I doing wrong. I followed all the steps mentioned below.

"Before OS X, you could drag a folder with a custom icon into an empty data CD window in Toast and that folder's custom icon would become the CD's custom icon. This doesn't work anymore with OS X. What you need to do now is to save your custom icon as a .icns file (using a tool like Iconographer or Icon Composer) and drag it into your Toast window, placing it at the root level of your new data CD. Then rename the file as
.VolumeIcon.icns
Once you burn the CD and pop it into your CD-ROM drive, it should appear in the Finder with a custom icon. :)

"

Thank you.
