Changing Folder Icons

I found some threads on this but, I guess, maybe things have changed.

I am moving my music and I'd like to have the cute icon that the normal music folder has on my new music folder. I bring up the info window on both folders. But I can not select the icon in the Preview part of the info window. So "Copy" or "Paste" never get enabled.

My other question is basically the same except for the side bar on the finder window. How do I set cute icons for the folders in there? There seems to be some special magic sometimes. If you put the "Library" folder in the side bar, you get the same icon as the folder has. But if you put the Movies or Music folder into the side bar, you see the icon on the folder but not the folder itself (i.e. you see only the treble clef sign and not a folder with the treble clef)

Sorry if this is a duplicate question...
 
I'm sorry. I figured out the first part. The icon to click is in the top left corner of the Info window -- not the big one in the Preview portion of the Info window.
