About iCal - is there a way to changes the fonts in iCal, or to modify the fonts in a single event?

Is there a way to modify the fonts in iCal. I would particularly like to enlarge specific events to make them more noticeable and to even make some of them a bold font to further call attention to them while using iCal. Any help?

archaeo,
Unfortunately there are no user options for using other than the default font in iCal. The only font option available in iCal is the "Make Text Bigger/Smaller" View option, but only if you are using the Lion version of iCal.
I suggest that you provide iCal Feedback.

My brother-in-law recently passed away. My sister gave his MacBook Pro to my niece. When she opens and starts the laptop, it shows my brother-in-laws name. Is there a way to change his name to her name without formatting the device and starting over?

BigTex415,
my condolences for your family’s loss. If all she seeks to do is to change the display name, and she’s willing to leave the account name unchanged, then she could do the following: log in as the administrative user and open the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences. If the padlock in the lower-left corner is locked, unlock it. Select the account that shows your brother-in-law’s name on the left-hand side of the window, and then on the right-hand side, change the text in the “Full name” textbox to her preferred display name. If desired, click on the padlock in the lower-left corner to relock it.

Is there a way to change my rescue email after I've set the security questions and forgotten the answers?

I am in high school and I made my Apple ID account at least 3 years ago in middle school and I used my school email as the recovery email. I have forgotten the correct response to my security questions and I no longer have access to my old school email and I was wondering if there was a way to change that email now. I have changed the "Alternate Apple ID" email to one that I do have access to, but it didn't change the recovery email. I was wondering if there is a way to change that one so I can access iTunes on other devices.

The rescue email address and alternate email addresses are different settings/addresses on an account, you won't be able to change your rescue email address until you can answer 2 of your questions - you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to update your rescue email address for potential future use

I was not aware about security questions.. My account got locked for 8 hours. Is there a way to change those security questions to prevent problems in the future. Thanks

Please help me to reset my security questions

I cannot continue to use my external hard disk which I used with windows. OS 10.8 can read it but declares the disk as "read only". Is there a way to change this?

Hallo everyone,
I just tried my external disk on my Macbook air and I cannot save data to it any longer. This external disk was used with windows. Now i want to use it with macbookAir as I have changed my computer. It seems that OSX.10.8.5 can read the data on this external drive but when I try to save new data to it (pdf documents from the web for example) it refuses to save the data ans the message I get is that my drive is "read only". Please is there a way to change this or do I have to format the re-format the external drive?
Thanks for your help

You will have to reformat the drive for use with a Mac.
Mac only: Format as MacOS Extended (Journaled)
Mac and Windows: Format to MSDOS

Wow, one interface change in iCal and you Mac world falls apart? I have not even noticed the change to it over the other great features included in Lion. Not a hiccup, increased stability and speed on all my Macs, Loving Mission Control, iCloud is a great selling point and Mountain Lion, due out later in the year will yet again change the face of Computing forever. Windows is following along the same path, struggling to keep up (yes I run Windows as well - trecherous isn't it!), but yet we are all doomed because a handful of people don't like the leather bound look of Address Book which will probably change again in ML if a hack isn't written in the meantime. Petty arguement here. Just give feedback to Apple, I am sure it is on the top of their agenda.

Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?

Hi, Im not a frequent forum poster, as most of my questions can be found already answered on them!
This is a question Ive had for a long time and it amazes me that no-one else seems to ask it. I check at each OS upgrade but its never there...
Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?
I was able to do this years ago in MS Outlook, and utilized it all the time when I needed to push things back, now I have to open the event and select an new date in the drop-down calendar for each & every event I want to move to a new month at the end of the month.
If its definitely not possible, how to you ask apple to consider including it - it doesnt seem like a particularly difficult task.
Thankyou
Andrew.

Andrew,
Is there any way of dragging and dropping an iCal event showing in week view across to a date in the left sidebar monthly calendar?
No, but you can use cut/paste. Cut (⌘X) the event, then click on the week where you want to move the event, and Paste (⌘V).
If you have a suggestion for Apple to change that method use: Apple - Mac OS X - Feedback.

Is there a way of changing the jdevappunknown_ folder that Ant deploys to?

Using Ant DeployESBSuitcase doesn't work when deploying Projects with dependencies.
Steps to re-create error:
Create a JDeveloper ESB Project called ‘ProjectB’ and add file adapter called ‘WriteFile’ to write a file. Deploy this project using JDeveloper.
Create another JDeveloper ESB Project called ‘ProjectA’ and add a file adapter called ‘ReadFile’ to read a file.
From ProjectA’s routing service add a routing rule and use ‘Browse Target Service Operation’ (Gear wheel icon) and select the deployed ProjectB_WriteFile service.
Deploy ProjectA using JDeveloper.
Use Ant to create a deploymentplan file for both projects by running the ExtractESBDeploymentPlan target.
Note: As these projects are saved under their own directory structure
C:\Workspace\Local\ProjectA and C:\Workspace\Local\ProjectB you will need to copy the ..\ProjectB\ProjectB_WriteFile.wsdl to the ProjectA folder.
Confirm that ProjectA and ProjectB Ant build files DeployESBSuitcase properties (esbMetadataServerHost and esbMetaServerPort) point to another server other than the one you have just deployed ProjectA and ProjectB to using JDeveloper. i.e. a clean server that doesn’t know about these Projects
Deploy ProjectB using Ant’s DeployESBSuitcase target.
Deploy ProjectA using Ant’s DeployESBSuitcase target.
An error is now thrown

C:\Workspace\Local\ProjectA>
This error is thrown as ProjectB’s wsdl file cannot be found under esb:///ESB_Projects/Local_ProjectB/ProjectB_WriteFile.wsdl.
This is due to Ant deploying ProjectB under …\ESB_Projects\jdevappunknown_ rather than …\ESB_Projects\Local_ProjectB
When deploying ESB projects from JDeveloper they are created under the following structure: <Oracle_Home>\integration\esb\oraesb\artifacts\store\metadata\files\ESB_Projects\<JDev_Workspace>\<Project_Name>
However when using the Ant target DeployESBSuitcase ALL projects are deployed to the same folder:
<Oracle_Home>\integration\esb\oraesb\artifacts\store\metadata\files\ESB_Projects\jdevappunknown_
Is there a way of changing the jdevappunknown folder used by Ant deployments?

James,
Following my steps above I don't get anything in the deploymentPlan for either ProjectA or ProjectB which includes a WSDL URL I can modify.
ProjectA includes the ProjectB_WrieFile.esbsv file which contains the following line:
<wsdlURL>esb:///ESB_Projects/Local_ProjectB/ProjectB_Write.wsdl</wsdlURL>
Is there something I can change which will mean when I regenerate the deploymentPlan it will include the WSDL location?
Thanks
Alistair

Is there a way to change the message received in Outlook from Mavericks calender?

Hi there
I found a post discussing this whereby a user was advised to edit the ITIP.stings file in the contents of the iCal.app to change the standard message that states "To accept or decline this invitation, click the link below" etc message that an Outlook user received when getting a calender invite from Mavericks Calender.
The post is here:
Is there a way to change the standard email message?
Problem is, on Mavericks it does not have that string in that file - I've actually checked ALL the .strings files in that folder but to no avail. Did it move somewhere else on Mavericks?
On another note...this whole process is part in part moving from Entourage to Mac Mail and Calender due to Apple's (illogical) removal of the ability to sync with anything other than iCal / Mail / iCloud. So we manually moved everything across (thousands of mails and hundreds of folders) and hundreds and hundreds of calender events.
Now it syncing but herewith the problem...if I create an event and send it to someone, they receive it as the iCloud account email and not our work email (pop account with our own domain). Even then when I open it in Outlook, it has some horribly malformed address and when you accept, you get a delivery failure.
So we create a different Calender (On the Mac) and this sends 100% (except for the message in the body we'd like to change) but this does not sync with the Iphone or the iPad. Then we have to manually change the calender event to the iCloud calender and it brings up a message that its going to send the update to all the attendees...and you must choose between send via mail or send via server.
What do I do!?

Anyone? Just need to know where I can change that message and also how I can set up the icloud calender to send invites using my work email address (as configured in Mail)?

Is there a way to change the standard email message?

Hi,
I'd rather not have the message "Russ Conte has invited you to ..." as the message that is sent out for each invitation. Is there a way to change that without having to go in and change every single time it is used? Is there a preference for the text that is used, so I can edit it to be what I want?
I'm using iCal 2.0.5
Mac OS X 10.4.11
MacBook Pro 2.33 GHZ, 2 MB RAM
Any help or advice is most appreciated.
Thanks,
Russ Conte

At your own risk ...
Ctrl-click on the iCal.app file in Applications and select Show Package Contents. Locate the English.lproj folder in the Resources folder of the Contents. Find file ITIP.strings and make a duplicate (so we can restore if things go badly). Open ITIP.strings with a text editor (BBEdit, TextEdit or whatever you use yourself). Scroll down to find
/* Mail body when sending an invitation to an event (IP 56) */
"%@ has invited you to the iCal event: %@, scheduled for %@ at %@ (%@). To accept or decline this invitation, click the link below.\n" = "%@ has invited you to the iCal event: %@, scheduled for %@ at %@ (%@). To accept or decline this invitation, click the link below.\n";
The text that is used (and that you can change) is the text to the right of the "=". You may need to restart iCal after saving any changes. It is quite possible that your changes, if they work, will not survive software updates.

Is there a way to change the pinch-to-zoom feature?

Is there a way to change the behavior of pinch-to-zoom in Safari 5.1.4 on Lion? It seems to have adopted the iOS zoom (where it's a zoom into an area on the page) and I would prefer that it emulated a Command-+ type of page zoom. When using pinch-to-zoom in a site like Gmail or Google Reader, the content ends up requiring horizontal scrolling if you pinch-to-zoom... while Command-+ increases the size of everything but keeps it within a single screen.
Can this be done? Is there the equivalent of the about:config page from Firefox?
Apple... can you fix this (or offer an option to determine how pinch-to-zoom works in Safari)?!?!
Thanks!

Thanks for your response.
I have searched for a solution to change the order of my tags and haven't found it.
I add multiple tags to my emails and the color at a glance means something to me - if I add an earlier, more up the priority ladder it shows that color instead of the one that I want. I'm rambling but the fact remains that I would like to be able to change the tag priority.
Have a great one!
