As a followup to the workaround by unchecking "Icon" in the prefs. the problem becomes even more weird. The workaround above works consistently with this one computer, so I wonder what exactly the pref is changing.... here's the big but. But.. I can also save a finder icon successfully with the "Icon" checked, if I turn off DragThing. But if DragThing is on the icon is gone. Ok, so you'd then assume that DragThing is causing the file to be saved wrong. Nope, if I restart the icon appears, and if I view the file without the visible icon from another computer ... the icon does show. So, DragThing is somehow causing the icon to not be visible until the computer is restarted? wrong again maybe.. because I tested the same setup on a slightly different MacPro with DragThing and I don't have a problem. Both were using 10.8.4 / 13.0.5, the problem computer was a MP 5,1 and the one that didn't have the problem was an MP 3,1 same OS and version of PS. 1. What does the "Icon" pref do 2. For anyone else having this problem, have you tried turning off all other apps while saving? the answer is..... no answer. But I'm leaning towards this not being an Adobe issue, especially if a restart can make the icon reappear, and the icon is viewable immediately on a networked computer.
