| If you only want to update one Application icon, ie, in App.app/Contents/Resources/App.icns just touch the App.app folder. (I've read you need to do the Info.plist as well sometimes, although I've never needed to.) | |
| Close the finder windows and: | |
| touch /Applications/App.app | |
| touch /Applications/App.app/Contents/Info.plist | |
| You can refresh the dock icon cache using the commands above, also do a killall Dock to restart it. Personally I would just drag the application in question, off the dock and re-start / keep in dock, because this is generally a one off thing. As always, script it if possible / and you're doing it a lot. |
