  • How to enlarge the icons in the Windows 7 system tray

    I managed to find my way to the dialog color and appearance of windows, but I don't see a way to change the size or font for the system tray. Task bar icons can be changed but not the system tray. This computer is running windows 7 Home premium 64-bit. Thank you.

    If you hover the mouse over one by one, you will get a popup providing details of what they are.  You can also use the loupe tool located under all programs-> Accessories-> ease of access.  I don't know how just enlarge that part of the taskbar without affecting the entire screen.

    I hope this helps.  Good luck.

  • How to change the icon of an extra folder in the sidebar?

    I just downloaded Sierra, I have a mac mini and I want to change the icon of a folder that I created, I already changed it, but in the sidebar, there is no icon, so I need help to change to the icon I want.

    If you had already created a folder named & then hung out in the

    Docking station, a change in this file might have to replace one in the Dock; so

    If this is the case, do drag the earlier version of Dock, replace with new.

    Of course, when you drag the icon of the old dock, it will go "poof!"

    {Are you referring to the dock as a 'side bar' on the desktop?}

    Files and web links, etc. can be slid in the side bar (Dock)?

    on the side of the bulkhead the nearest trash. Only applications or utilities

    can be moved to the other side.

    Here is an example of a file with a custom icon to the dock, put in place to

    be considered a list, arranged by name; used to launch additional items that

    otherwise could not fit well on the dock. There are also the Alias of elements:

    The alias or the symbiotic relationship that you create in the Dock is always based on the presence

    the original (a custom, etc folder) or on the icon element can become a '? Mark '

    or blank if the original is no longer available. I put the original in my user folder.

    If you already know how to copy a new icon to a folder (else, etc.)

    or make a new graphic icon and paste it into the folder to replace original;

    so if I understand this issue, the rest should be easy.

    Unless you try to accomplish something else...!

    How to activate the icon of speaker on the CONNECTED screen selection?

    Hi leross,.

    I don't know what app you ask on the sound settings for your Apple Watch.  But, in general, you choose your Apple Watch as a source for your music.  Once you pair your Apple Watch with a bluetooth headset, you will be able to adjust the volume.

    Listen to music on your Apple Watch

    Play music from your Apple Watch

    You can also enjoy the music on your Apple Watch without your iPhone when you pair with a Bluetooth headset. Open the music application, scroll up, then on your Apple Watch to choose it as a source. Then scroll down and tap one of these options:

    • Playback in progress. Play / pause what is currently playing on your Apple Watch.
    • My music. After a sync a playlist to your Apple Watch, you can browse your music by Albums, artists and songs.
    • Playlists. Follow the steps below to sync a playlist to your Apple Watch.
