Changing the colour of \textbullet in LaTeX Beamer

Question

I don\'t want to use Beamer\'s standard blue colour theme. I want to use beaver, which is deep reds. Everything looks nice, except that if I use itemize

Answer 1

In the current (early 2012) version of beamer, you want to use:

\setbeamercolor*{item}{fg=red}

instead.
