geticonfamilydata error -50

[LVCoder]

Hi All,

I get the attached error when I try to select an icon for my application in the application builer. I am using LabVIEW 2012 SP1 on Mac 10.8.4

Does anyone has any idea about this?

Thanks,

Ritesh

While I'm not super familliar with MAC icons I would guess that either the .ico file has a bad format (What did you generate it with?) or it is "Conflicted" in the project.

MAC icons are in .icns format. I used an online utility to convert my .ico file to .icns and it opens perfectly on MAC but I get that error when I use it in LabVIEW app builder.

I tried multiple freeware tools for converting .ico to .icns and everytime I get the same error.

The file is NOT "conflicted" in the project

Now I downloaded another utility "img2icns" and this time the converted file worked in the LabVIEW app builder.
