Using colors in ical

Is it possible to use different colors for different events within a day on ical and/or between days. So far I've only been able to change a color and then it affects the entire calendar. I'd like to use different colors for different events. Thanks
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

The whole idea of the color scheme is to be able to tell what category an event is. Like Alasdair mentioned, I have several calendars for home, work, school, etc... Then you can filter your calendar by unchecking those you don't need to look at. Only interested in your work schedule? uncheck the other calendars and you will only see the appointments for the calendar selected. Even if all are checked, the colors of the appointments make it easier to tell what you are looking at.
The one thing I wish is that there could be an integrated published calendar to the net, so when I have to look at my whole schedule on the internet when I am away from my machine, I don't have to open all my different calendars separately.
Hope this helps!

  • HT2513 Can I change colors in ical? How?

    How do I change colors in iCal? Specifically using OS X Mountain Lion.

    You can do that by going to iCloud, select Calendar. Then you'll see on the left side where it says Calendars (under the cloud mark) click Edit, and you can add other Topics and customze them to the color you want:)

  • How do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion.  Everything is greyed and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which are now invisible?

    how do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion. Since upgrading,  all fonts are grey, instead of black,  and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which also are grey and almost invisible?  And if you can asnwer this, can you tell me how to get back the email format I had before the upgrade?  I no longer have column headings and I'd like them.  Thank you. 

    Do you know about changing the font colors for ical, and the color of the scroll bars?
    No, I don't. I don't use that program; I fiddled with it just now, and could not find a way to do that.
    Perhaps someone else will have an idea.

    I recently began using reminders in ical and downloaded the iPhone and iPad app. It works great. However, the reminders in ical on the COMPUTER is difficult to work with - thin long column on the right rather than in it's own screen. is there a reminders app for the COMPUTER that is more user friendly?

    sgreenie,
    If you are willing to wait, Apple - OS X Mountain Lion - Inspired by iPad. Made for the Mac explains that a "Reminders" application will be included in the next release of OS X.

  • Use Color or Magic Bullet Looks for complete grade and effects?

    I am a long time MB Looks user - not heavy dosages but I do find it easy and fast as it keeps you inside FCP and along with the 3-Way CC it was efficient.
    I am nearing an edit on a 80 minute documentary which involves going from color to clips converted to black & white and sepia tone for effect. I am thinking to use Color workflow for the entire color grade and effects.
    Does Color dispense the need for Looks altogether? I have used color a few times now but not on a complete feature length, so I would need to sharpen my knowledge.

    Color, MB Looks, FCP's 3WCC are all arrows in our quiver. We don't need to give one up to use another.
    I'm working on a doc now (it's rendering out in Color as I type this) that has "Hero" shots being treated in MB Looks. But I use Color to even out all those Hero shots so the MBL settings I'm using will be applied consistently. But even then I find it useful to to precede MBL with a 3WCC so I can easily adjust the tonality, saturation, and color palette of the shot without having to step back into the MBL interface.
    I can definitely guarantee that I couldn't have graded this show in 2.5 days if I just kept myself to using only the FCP interface. Even with the prep time for the Color round-trip - I get better results faster...

  • What am I missing out on using color on 15" MBP (1400x900) monitor?

    Minimum recommended resolution: 1650x1050
    Should I trade the 15" in for 17" model (Just bought it)? I'm a complete beginner and have never used color before. Basic answers are appreciated. This is not for "TV" production, just small shop jobs and hobby stuff.
    Thanks!

    The single biggest issue is the User Interface, which is locked at a specific size and arrangement.
    In order to pack all the things onto the screen which go into a professional grading solution, the originating application went with a tiny font and big panes, so that users might benefit from a bigger image and a somewhat effective drag-space for the value remapping tools.
    If its for personal entertainment, you really don't need much more, but a single-screen presentation will amplify its own deficiencies in fairly short order...
    Consider, though...
    If you aren't interested in a lot of extracurricular headaches, the three-way inside Final Cut may be more effective in the long run -- no round trip, no rendering new media, no reconnection problems, no hidden gotchas with codec, imbedded incompatibilities within sequences and so on and so forth.

  • Does Grayscale printing in Canon MP 287 uses color ink also???

    Hi,
    I want to know that using the printer in grayscale mode uses color ink or not for printing????

    So I wonder if my B&W docs have been printing from the color carts and not the pigment black cart. Might this be what's happening? Is there any way to get PSE to use the pigment black cart? Or is something else happening?
    Yes, this is very common with most printers now. They blend colors to get a good black. Does your printer have a grayscale mode option?

  • Can i convert a non layered file to a layered file bases on used colors?

    can i convert a non layered file to a layered file bases on used colors?

    I have heard questions like this before.
    Some people seem to think that each colour should be on a separate layer.
    I hope you are not one of them, because it is a complete misconception and defeats the object of Illustrator’s object stacking system.
    Why do you think you need to collect objects of the same colour onto separate layers?

  • Newbie Problem, White edges when using colors?

    Hi, I am new to illustrator, and this problem has been bothering me forever. I have googled beyond belief, but no answer. Maybe I am using the wrong terminology? Not sure. But overall, when I create things in illustrator, and use color, there are white edges around everything. Example below.
    Also the colors I choose don't seem to be the ones that show up. Like, for the example above, I chose a deeper purple, but a lighter purple came out. I guess illustrator is A LOT different than photoshop.

    well, i recently had something like that too.
    I just couldnt figure out why it was showing up.
    Untill i began looking at the layers.
    It seemed that somehow some layers got duplicated and stuff.
    So i recommend that you have a look at your layers and check for unwanted duplicates.

  • Using Color Lookup Tables with cwgraph3d

    Hi,
    When searching old forums and other references, I can only find information regarding using color lookup tables in labview and I am using VB6.
    I want to let the user to pick a given amount of colors, have this turned into a gradiant over a table of size 256, and then using the custom colormaptstyle in my 3d graph. I want to be able to change the palette in real time to change my image. Basically I want to have the color palette screen to show up all the time and that gradiant that appears on the right side(vertically) to be my new color lookup table for the image(if that makes any sense).
    Thanks. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Kevin,
    Attached is a small VB6 example that uses the CWGraph3D's ColorMap properties. I think this will demonstrate the color lookup table capability that you're asking about, and you'll be able to use this as a building block for your own application.

  • Did I need to pay for use Color finesse?

    Hello, I want to ask about Color finesse. I have that Effect in my After Effect CS 5.5 but when I want to use it the program ask me about registration. I want to ask if I need to pay after the regisration color finesse or the registration is free with AE CS5,5?
    Thanks for answering

    You don't need to pay extra to use Color Finesse in After Effects CS5.5. Color Finesse is installed automatically by the Adobe installer and serializes itself the first time you use it.
    When you apply Color Finesse to a layer for the first time it will ask for your name/organization. You need to enter something here and click OK to cause Color Finesse to serialize itself. Color Finesse as included with CS5.5 should never ask for a serial number. Nor do you need to register your copy on-line (although we suggest you do so).
    Or is Color Finesse not behaving this way? A screenshot of what you're seeing could help us understand what is going on.

  • Could not use color replacement tool because it only works in full color mode: Elements 11

    I have a PSD file open and I added a new layer via the copy command.  I have added a Layer Mask to the new layer and I'm trying to use the Brush Tool with black forground to cover part of the new layer.  I'm following an online tutorial step by step, but when I try to use the Brush Tool I get "could not use color replacement tool because it only works in full color mode".  The Image>Mode is set to RGB.  I'm stuck!

    First, show the tools optiond in the bottom of the screen (shortcut F4)
    Now look at which of the three options you can select, brush, impressionist brush or replacement tool. I suspect you have to select the brush.
    Edit:
    The reason of the message is that when you are painting on a mask you are in greyscale mode for the mask. For instance, if you paste a coloured layer into a mask, it will be converted to greyscale.

  • How to use Color Splash Effect in Photoshop CS6?

    Hi everyone
    Can you guy help me out How to use Color Splash Effect in Photoshop CS6? I need to use in slide in my web
    Thanks

    You mean "leave part in color and make the rest black and white"?
    Just select or mask the part that should be B&W and desaturate, or use the B&W adjustment.
    Or you can add a B&W adjustment layer and mask out the parts that should stay in color.
