Adding graphics or symbols to iCal

As a new user of iCal I am trying to add a symbol such as a birthday cake or candle or modify the color of the event bars in iCal. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks.

Get a copy of your photo out of JPG as soon as you can -- open the original JPG in PSE and immediately save it as a PSD file (PSE's native file format).  Then you can re-size, modify, and add graphics/logos as you wish to the PSD image without affecting the original JPG as it came from your camera.  When you're finished, use File...Save for Web to export the final image as a PNG-24 file.  You can keep the original image size in the PSD file for best quality and ease of working, then when using Save for Web, re-size it to your final size.
That gives you the most flexibility -- your original photo is untouched, your PSD file is available (with layers, etc.) for later tweaking, and you can always export a PNG with the updated results.

  • HD Video Youtube Adding Graphics

    Hi everyone,
    Again I will award you with 10000 karma points for your help on this one!
    I have been filming in ADHD and have recently added graphics - while I love the look of the video the file size is - you guessed it - MASSIVE... and the graphics when played back on HD format are a little scratchy and bumpy. So what I am thinking is to convert the HD video into Youtube format and THEN add the graphics to the video -- however... I would like to know if ANYONE out there knows the size in pixles that my video background (graphic) should be to blend with the newly converted YouTube format?
    Again Karma points people
    Thanks!

    Ummm Hi John,
    I still dont understand what was written on that link that you sent me - I just want to know what the pixle size of a frame is for a video that has been exported from HD into YouTube settings? Forget my ignorance I am completely and utterly new to Premiere Pro and honestly value the patience that you guys have with me on these forums. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Or if there is another way to do what I want to do then please contact me or reply here. I basically want the video to be in a smaller format (Ideally for YouTube) and then want to add graphic to the video so that both the graphics and the video play back smoothly.
    - Again thank you all soooooooo much for your time and attention

  • Need help with adding graphics to NSTextView

    I am looking for information on adding graphics to NSTextView so that the graphic is linked to a point in the text and will move with it as the window is resized. I understand that a subclass of NSTextContainer is needed to define the line lengths, etc. for NSLayoutManager. What I cannot figure out is how to know what text is being processed when the message to specify line positions is received by the subclass.
    What I really need is a sample program that shows how to link a graphic to the text.

    I did that bad it's not there and doesn't give me to option to click on it

  • How can I import symbols to iCal?

    I am wondering if there is a way to import symbols to iCal.

    Blowhard,
    The characters/symbols which Character Palette can display/use are limited by the fonts which are installed on your computer.
    Character Palette is a character map for Unicode 3.2.
    Unicode and Multilingual File Conversion, Font and Keyboard Utilities for Macintosh OS X Computers, has a comprehensive discussion on various Utilities available.

  • Adding brushes and symbols to Illustrator CS4

    I'm fairly new to Illustrator, though a long time Photoshop user, and I want to add some vectors I've downloaded from 123freevectors.  (I'm on a Mac)
    In Photoshop, I had no problem adding new brushes from other sources by just dropping them in Presets > Brushes folder.
    I tried doing the same with Illustrator by dropping downloaded vectors to Presets > Symbols.  Although they showed up in the library listing, the symbols were not correct.  Ditto by dropping them in Presets > Brushes. 
    How do I load new brushes and symbols, and how do I know which library to put them in when what I've downloaded is just described as vectors with extension of .ai  (some are .eps)
    Thanks!

    Plac3en the file in a document when it is placed in the document drag the art into the symbols panel same for the brushes panel and there you will have a choice of what kinfd of brush ou wish to make, you can also drag ity into the watches pamel to make a pattern fill. Y^ou can save the swattchges, bvrushes nd symbols as libraries for use in the future.

  • My friend and I share an iCal calendar through iCloud.  Until recently, we would receive email notifications if either of us made changes to or added an event to the iCal calendar.  Does anyone know why those email notifications stopped?

    My friend and I share an iCal calendar through iCloud.  Until recently, we received email notificiations anytime either of us made changes to exisiting calendar events or added new items to the calendar.  Does anyone know why these email notificiations stopped?

    iCloud was experiencing problems with this a couple of days ago, where many users with shared calendars were getting email notifications even though their iCloud settings did not select to receive them.  Perhaps when they fixed this problem it reverted your settings to not receive email notifications.  Got to iCloud and check your setting for this.  If it still look correct, try turning off email notifications, save the change, then turn them back on again and save the change again.

  • Adding groups to delegate in ical client

    I've got iCal server working but would really like to be able to delegate to a group instead of adding 30 odd names in one at a time.
    I have the groups working correctly for AFP with Workgroup manager. Was hoping iCal server would just use these groups to delegate in iCal client but obviously not since they don't appear when I type them in.
    So do I need to setup groups in a global address book for this to work? Where does the iCal client try to read its delegates from?
    Discussed here:

    Been having a dabble but scared I'm going to break something!

    Hi-
    Were you able to delegate to a group via the command line? I've been trying and although the command goes through, the resource or location does not show up in an individual user's iCal account under the delegation tab. I too want to avoid adding 40+ users manually!
    Thanks,

  • Adding YouTube upcoming events to iCal

    When I go to add an "Upcoming event" to "iCal" from YouTube, it will add the event to iCal, but the link to the YouTube video will be part of the event title.
    Is this a bug, and/or is there a workaround so that the link to the YouTube video gets added to the url property of the iCal event so that I can simply click on the url to bring up the video.
    Thanks

    I'm struggling with the same dilema too. Any know how to get Outlook calendars into iCal?

  • Flash Slide show--adding graphics over multiple slides

    I'm new to Flash--I'm trying to make a slide show
    presentation where the first slide has bits of a graphic and then
    more bits are added in subsequent slides. What is the most
    efficient way to do this? Many of my images are organized with
    layers in Illustrator if that's helpful (all CS3).
    Thanks

    Here is some as to get you started
    Drag a Loader component onto the stage.
    name it pictureHolder then paste this as into the first frame
    of your movie.
    loadVariables("totalImages.txt", "");
    timeOut = getTimer();
    imageNumber = totalImages;
    countDown = function () {
    trace(imageNumber);
    pictureHolder.load("_slide-images/"+imageNumber+".jpg");
    imageNumber--;
    if (imageNumber == 0) {
    clearInterval(timer);
    imageNumber = totalImages;
    timer = setInterval(countDown, 10000);
    timer = setInterval(countDown, 10000);
    now create a text file called totalImages.txt
    keep this text file in the same location as your flash file
    and .swf
    now create a folder called _slide-images
    in this folder place all your images. name them numerically
    ie 1.jpg 2.jpg etc.
    Now open the totalImages.txt and paste this into it.
    &imageNumber=20&totalImages=20
    20 means that you will have 20 images, just change the munber
    accordingly.
    HTH.

  • Unique Symbols for ical symbols

    How do I set a symbol for an ical calendar so that it is displays uniquely in the calendar like birthdays? I can tell it is a birthday event.  I have a lot of sporting cal that i subscribe to and want to distinguish what type of calendar I am looking at like, Football, Basketball, Soccer, Volleyball.

    Just recently People have been telling me they cant hear me & the line goes all crackly. When I look at the phone, where the indicator/symbols normally are (top middle/right) there is a small yellow zig zag line. This only appears when the line goes bad - which is all the time now. I have looked in my Manual & even on the Nokia website & its not mentioned anywhere.
    Does anyone know what this symbol means?

  • Adding Graphic "Title" Strip

    I would like to add a graphic "title" strip to the bottom of my talking head type interview (to included the subject's name, title, etc) kind of like what they typically [over]do on news programs like cnn, msn, fox, etc... example: http://video.foxnews.com/#/v/4432088/body-scanner-solution/?playlist_id=87937
    Can anyone provide a tutorial or quick step-by-step?
    I'm pretty new to FCE, so any help is appreciated...
    thanks!

    It really depends on how detailed you want to be with your graphics, and remember that the more detailed you are the more patient you have to be. The exceptionally simple way to do what you want to do is to put your talking head shot on V1 and superimpose a Lower Third text from Video Generator-->Text-->Lower Third. Under the Controls tab you'll find a selection for "Background". Try "Solid" and play with the opacity. This will get you going in the right direction.
    There are other methods that will also give you greater flexibility and greater detail involving a matte, cropping, and adding motion with keyframes. If you have custom graphics you will need to explore these options too. But this should get you started.

  • Adding a trademark symbol in xml flash menu

    Hi, I am a front end web designer/developer and
    analyst...struggling with putting an accordian flash xml menu
    together. I have it done except I need to add a simple trademark
    symbol circle with r. I am struggling with how to do this since I
    am not savvy in actioncript. I assume the best way is to add it is
    with a CDATA child node, but do not know how or whatever is the
    best way to get this done since am on a tight deadline. I need
    someone to explain step by step what I have to do to get this
    simple addition resolved. Attached are the links to home page and
    code for the xml file. The left navigation is the asset that I need
    to add the trademark symbol under about, about ADHERE. Thanks so
    much in advance!!!!!!

    Okay, test files are up in the following directory:
    www.saffronthread.com/test
    You can guess which ones are for you. I didn't deal with the
    whole IE stupidness, so you my need to click on the page. But I've
    got several different text fields some runtime some author
    environment and sample text. Works for me on Mac and on the PC I
    checked. Let me know what you find out.
    As for System.useCodePage it is very seldom an actual
    solution to the problem. It is a solution for when you want to be
    sure that the user's Flash Plugin uses the computer's code page for
    text rendering. Read the help entry for it and you will see that it
    is not a solution for making sure that the most people possible
    will correctly receive my text. It is more a solution for, I want
    to make sure that those with Chinese operating systems are able to
    correctly see the Chinese text I have encode with my special
    encoding.
    Most questions that get a "Oh, you must use
    System.useCodePage answer" are more like, "I want to make sure that
    everybody on every type of system can see my special characters."
    The answer for that tends toward proper use of UTF-8 and that is my
    guess for your problem. That your XML file is not being saved as
    UTF-8. If System.useCodePage is helping you that tells me that your
    XML editor is saving to some odd (maybe very popular, but not
    UTF-8) encoding.

  • Adding an event to your iCal on your iPod touch

    So...I understand you can sync the iPod touch's iCal with a calendar on your main computer (using Entourage, outlook, or simply iCal.) BUT....can you add events directly into your Ipod touch...and then simply view both calendars at the same time like you can do using iCal on your desktop? Basically, use your Ipod touch as a sort of palm pilot.
    Any info on this would be great.

    Steve Minnick wrote:
    ....can you add events directly into your Ipod touch.
    No, you can't do this. Apple have decided that iPod Touch users shouldn't be allowed to add calendar entries and have broken the calendar.
    You can let Apple know we want the calendar fixed by filling out the form at: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    It only takes a minute and it's the best way we have of telling them we don't want a crippled calendar.

  • Adding day of week to iCal calendar

    I am frustrated by the fact that iCal does not show the day of the week above the dates  My iCal is set to show one week at a time but only shows July 17, 18, 19 etc.  Is there a way to modify an iCal calendar or is there a
    page already in iCal.  I want the page to show Wednesday July 18, etc.  not just the 18th.

    You can do that in update or also in trasnfer rules, where you prefer.
    For me it's better to do that in update rules.
    Hope it helps.

  • HP touchsmart adding graphics card

    I have a question.
    I have HP touchsmart computer, model 520-1070 uk with integrated graphics card HD 2000.
    Can I add better HD graphics card in format MXM to my computer ?
    It's very important to me, please help !
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    The only cards likely to work in your computer are the HP sourced cards I previously listed. As far as the heatsink / fan assembly is concerned, it would be best to disassemble your computer prior to purchasing anything. If the current HSF only makes contact with the CPU (as I suspect) and doesn't have an "arm" that reaches the GPU area, a new HSF assembly will be required (if it can even be sourced).
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
