Problems getting game icons displayed on Launchpad
Am I the only one with this problem? All games work as they should (apart from bugs in each of them, normal thing), and show up in my steam Library with names and icons. When looking for them in Launchpad, some of them appear with their respective images, others with the Steam icon, and a last one with an icon displaying a brush, a pencil and a piece of paper. I use a MacBook Pro Retina 15'' Mountain Lion. Any ideas?

When they don't have the correct icon in LaunchPad, they also don't have the correct icon in the Finder.

In some cases you can fix that by diggin into your Steam library folder (~/Application Support/Steam/common) and then look in the corresponding game's folder. Usually, you'll find the actual game executable there, often with the icon it's supposed to have. Select the executable, open the Finder's info window (cmd+i), click on the icon on the top and press cmd+c. Then select the game's shortcut in your Application folder, again open the file info window (cmd+i), select the icon, press cmd+v. Voilà!

Some (few) games apparently don't have real Mac icons, though.

Oh yeah man, I didn't know I had a unique Apps folder for my user in Mac (I've been using it only for a while). It's all fixed now. Thanks!

Just to make it clear, you need to go the Applications folder in your Home directory, not in your root folder. In Finder, select Go from the menu and select Home, then you will see the Applications folder with the Steam games.

I found that for some games (Civ4, The Cave, Psychonauts), even though they had no icon in launchpad, some had an icon while running, but general browsing is not "encouraged" on the mac.

- Open your library of applications, open the games properties
- Local files tab, browse local files

I found many games had their icons stashed in that directory, and if not it should be a good place to start

I now have icons in Launchpad for my games!

Thanks a lot!
I could not find the Steam folder in Application Support, so alternatively you can access the game executable (and the icon) by right clicking on the game directly on Steam --> Manage --> Browse Local Files

Dear Friends,
I couldn't follow the instructions I found here, but was useful to actually make it works. What I did:
Open finder
Research the game name in all the computer
right click on the icon (without the picture) and open the INFO
Go on internet and find an icon for this game
Download it
With download folder open drag and drop on top of the game info the cursor should become a plus green
that's it your game as now an icon also in launch pad :steamhappy:
