Any was to alter or customize the default alert times in Calendar and/or Reminders?

I's like to create my own "defaults" in Calendar and Reminders. Any method of doing that? I thought it was possible...

I appreciate your response, but I've already gone through that routine several times. I actually had to do it TWICE today alone. It gets really old. I want Bing blocked completely. I'm tired of it changing my default search, especially without my permission.

Change default alert time in Calendar

Is there a way to change the default alert time in Calendar to something different than 9:00 AM? I realize I can do it directly in the calendar entry itself, but I want the default to be a different time and not have to correct it every time I create an entry.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Michael, starting with Mavericks, the Preferences in Calendar do not allow you to change the default time from 9:00 AM to any other time. The only way to modify the alert time is on an entry-by-entry basis using "Custom...". I want the default time to be something other than 9:00 AM so I don't have to change it in every entry.

Customize the Default Protocol in Serialization?

Going thru the serialization article at [http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Programming/serialization/] . Topic is Customize the Default Protocol+
As per my understanding when we try to read an serialized object(during desrialization) at server , new object will be created at serverside with same values of instance variables lying in serialized object. Right?
But there is paharagraph under topic Customize the Default Protocol at shred link. it says
All seems fine until we read the object back in with a call to the readObject() method. Remember, a constructor is called only when a new instance is created. We are not creating a new instance here, we are restoring a persisted object. The end result is the animation object will work only once, when it is first instantiated. Kind of makes it useless to persist it, huh?
As per me here also new object of PersistentAnimation will be created during desrialization process with the same state as in serialized object. So whats the issue here in readObject() method? it says We are not creating a new instance here, we are restoring a persisted object. Yes we are creating the new instance here but with the same values of instance variable that is there in serialized object. where the statement coming from object will work only once, when it is first instantiated. Kind of makes it useless to persist it, huh?

Note that the usual and recommended way of implementing clone() also does not invoke any constructor.
public class C implements Cloneable {
public static void main(String... args) throws Exception {
    C c1 = new C();
    C c2 = C.class.newInstance();
    C c3 = c1.clone();
public C() {
    System.out.println("C'tor!");
public C clone() throws CloneNotSupportedException {
    return (C)super.clone();
}All this is generally fine, because a c'tor is not supposed to perform any business logic. It's only supposed to get a newly created object into a valid state. Cloning and serialization are not about creating new objects. They're about preserving and restoring or duplicating the state of an object that's already fully functional.
Note also, that if you do end up needing to perform some other logic as part of deserialization or cloning, you can do so. These cases should be the exception, not the rule.

Using copyprofile to customize the default user profile

Well to get to the problem I'll just explain what I do, which doesn't work.
1. I install windows 8.1 pro (x64) on a test-pc.
2. After installation I press cntrl shift f3 to get into audit mode.
3. I install all software/drivers etc. I also place shortcuts and change the background.
4. I insert my usb, which contains a file called "unattend.xml" in which this is written:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend">
<settings pass="specialize">
<component name="Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Setup" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<CopyProfile>true</CopyProfile>
</component>
</settings>
<cpi:offlineImage cpi:source="wim:e:/usb/windows%207%20en%208/win81pro/sources/install.wim#Windows 8.1 Pro (x64)" xmlns:cpi="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:cpi" />
</unattend>
5. After that I use CMD and use this command: C:\windows\system32\sysprep\sysprep /oobe /generalize /shutdown /unattend:F:\unattend.xml
6. when it is done working and turns off, I turn it back on and walk through the oobe. After that my shortcuts and background are standard windows 8.1 and not the ones I used.
Can anyone see what I did wrong? I can't seem to figure it out. Thanks!
Btw: This unattend.xml file is created with windows system image manager of the same install.wim which is used to install that OS.
Note: If I generalize a pc after an installation, doesn't that cancel the activation? So when I bring it to a customer he needs to fill in the activation key?

Hi,
After the step 5 (I mean after we customize the default user profile and reference PC sutts down), generally as I know, we should then capture image, you can boot into Windows PE and then capture the Windows installation by using DISM.
See full guide in the link below
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-in/library/hh825135.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
The article also contains some conditions in which user profile settings aren't successfully copied, such as you can not use a domain account, there are no additional user accounts other than the built-in administrator account that you configured,, etc and
sysprep will remove all the security settings of your Windows including windows activation.

Are you saying that you contacted Apple support and they instructed you to backup and restore your iPad? Or do you mean that you picked up this information from an online support article? If you spoke to an Apple rep or received these instructions via email, contact them again for further help.
I fail to see how restoring your iPad would enable yoyr Apple ID.

I want to schedule my back ups to my Western Digital Elements HDD so that it doesn't interfere with my Skype calls with clients. Operating system - version 10.7.4. The default for Time Machine is to back up every 1 hour. I'd like daily at 3am. Any ideas?

How do we customize the default CKEditor for Web Form Editor in UCM 10gR3?

Our customers are using the Web Form Editor for some WYSIWYG changes. The form has too many options and they would like to limit what the users can do. We have attempted to make changes to the following files to customize the CKEditor for Web Form Editor and cannot see our changes reflected after saving/restarting Content Server.
Instance\weblayout\webform\ckeditor\config.js
Instance\weblayout\resources\wcm\3rdparty\fckeditor\fckconfig.js
Instance\custom\FCKEditor\webform\ckeditor\config.js
To test a simple change we tried adding the following to change the toolbar options.
CKEDITOR.editorConfig = function( config )
config.toolbar = 'MyToolbar';
config.toolbar_MyToolbar =
['NewPage','Preview'],
['Cut','Copy','Paste','PasteText','PasteFromWord','-','Scayt'],
['Undo','Redo','-','Find','Replace','-','SelectAll','RemoveFormat'],
['Image','Table','HorizontalRule','Smiley','SpecialChar','PageBreak'],
['Styles','Format'],
['Bold','Italic','Strike'],
['NumberedList','BulletedList','-','Outdent','Indent'],
['Link','Unlink','Anchor'],
['Maximize','-','About']
There isn't much standard documentation on this out of the box feature and I've searched Oracle Support with no luck.

Thanks,

Posting the answer:
You need to make the changes to the webforms component inside the ~\custom\FormEditor\templates\fe_config.js file. Then propagate your changes using the Administration > Actions > Publish layout files page.
One more quick question - where do we limit the Styles, Fonts, Sizes, Colors?
in the same file we added lines similar to the following to limit the fonts,
styles....
CKEDITOR.config.font_names = 'Arial;Times New Roman;Verdana';
CKEDITOR.config.fontSize_sizes = '16/16px;24/24px;48/48px;';

I can't make ADE the default program to open EPUB and MOBI files

Hello, I can't seem to be able to make ADE the default program to open EPUB and MOBI files. I use Windows 7. I used to use a Firefox plug-in to view these files, and before that I used Calibre. I have been told that these are both inadequate. When I go into the Control Panel to change the default program to open these files, however, ADE is not listed as one of the possibilities (only Firefox and Calibre are), and when I search it just brings up Adobe Acrobat. Any advice? Thanks, Bill.

I think I have answered my own question. This time I clicked on Browse for the program to set as the default, and I selected the Downloads program, and there it was. For some reason I had to re-install it several times, and it kept re-installing and re-installing. But all seems to be OK now.

Since you don’t allow emails any more – I suspect because of the numerous complaints with your service and the way you treat people that you don’t want documented, I am calling and I want this call recorded for future reference.
I have been a long time faithful customer of vzw and although the past year I have been late on payments many times and really couldn’t afford your exorbitant prices for services lots of other companies offer sometimes three times cheaper than what you charge, I have hung in there trying my best to meet my obligations.
This month has been no exception. You don’t know the background; the whole story of people’s lives. I know you could care less because all you care about is the profit-the money that comes in.
I was told when I agreed to pay my bill on the third per the recorded message that I had 14 days to pay…you cut me off anyway. The phones are not the tissue; your suspending my service means I cannot work. I may lose my job…how do you justify that? In any case? The least you could do would be to keep 4986 on and cut the phones off. But no. You refuse to compromise and meet the basic needs of your customer. What does that say about your company? I tried to call back on three separate occasions to tell you I couldn’t pay because of unexpected expenses but couldn’t get out of the automated system…sadly couldn’t get to a real person which also speaks volumes to me.
All this tells me this is a company I don’t wish to be affiliated with any more. As soon as I can, I will discontinue service with you…I know you could care less. I will honor the remaining portion of the contract but that’s it. You don’t deserve my business. I am a good, hardworking person who, at the sacrifice of myself and my needs, always pays her bills…albeit late at times. I realize others tell you stories and lies to justify themselves. That’s not me. If you knew what I had been through the last 7 yrs you would marvel that I am still on my feet…don’t judge too quickly. You could be wrong…and in my eyes you are by doing this to me.
God will see us through this extremely scary time of that I have no doubt. No thanks to your company and lack of understanding and mercy. I am doing the best I can. Sadly you are not.
See I have choices. MANY choices of providers for services you offer. I don’t have to be treated like this. I don’t have to succumb to your coldness and callousness. I intend to choose better (and cheaper). If your company doesn’t get the “people factor” back you will be sorry.

Problem here is you admit you cannot afford the service.
And you want to blame Verizon for losing a job because you have no cell phone.
If your job depends on that phone I would pay it on time every time if you need a job to pay your bill.
No other service is going to treat you any different. And if you cannot afford Verizon's monthly invoice how are you going to afford new devices, activation fees, possible security deposits on any other cellular carrier? You can't.
Also if you made an arraignment to pay and then decide you cannot do so, why should Verizon extend you service or credit, or why is it you want to use the service and data and not pay for it as agreed.
Get a prepay phone. Its evident the cost is too high for you to afford on post pay.
Good Luck

There was a problem connecting to the server "Max Time Capsule"

Disclaimer: Previously posted here (Ask Different) and similar to this.
I'm trying to use my MBP inside and outside my office, and having it backup to my 2TB Time Capsule when on its wireless network, or defer backups when not on the Time Capsule's wireless network.
Unfortunately, if I've been on a different wireless network for a few hours worth of backup attempts, bringing the machine back onto the Time Capsule's wireless network doesn't resume backups, and Time Machine never recovers. I can select the disk as a backup drive in the Time Machine preferences, but the disk remains unavailable from the Finder, and any backup attempts yield the standard:
There was a problem connecting to the server "Max Time Capsule"
Check the server name or IP address, and then try again. If you continue to have problems, contact your system administrator.
My WiFi connection is through the same Time Capsule that hosts the backup drive, and its name and IP address have decidedly not changed. The only thing that seems to help is restarting the Time Capsule, but that is an inconvenient workaround at best.
The problem sounds similar to Backup Disk Not Available, but the answers to that question are either to restart or change the disk name or turn off the 5 GHz network (which didn't help). I also looked at /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeCapsule.plist, but found nothing that seemed relevant.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My MBP is running OS X 10.7.5, and the Time Capsule firmware is 7.6.1.

The server may not exist or it is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again.
I still have internet connection, and have tried other suggestions across internet but really the only fix has been to power cycle the ATC. This unfortunately is only a temporary remedy for a day or so until it returns.
Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

How do I change the default timezone for user calendars?

The default timezone for new calendars is "America/New_York." How
do I change the default timezone to my local timezone?
To change the default timezone, perform the following steps:

<OL>
<LI>Go to the bin/data/default_user_prefs.xml
file.

<LI>In this file, change the values for the
"icsTimeZone" and
"ceSingleCalendarTZID"
parameters. The default settings will appear something as follows:


Changing these two parameters will change the timezone in the Calendar user
interface.

<LI>In addition, go to the
bin/config/ics.conf file.

<LI>In this file, change the value for
calstore.default.timezoneID

Changing this value will enable the server to pick up the new timezones.
</OL>

Please note: The values you enter for the above parameters must be valid
timezones defined in the
bin/data/timezone.ics
file.

Colin,
You may substitute any text you like for the "Placeholder Text", as it is called, in Pages. Click on the existing placeholder text and type something more to your liking. Do this in as many places as your particular template of interest demands. Then, Format > Advanced > Define as Placeholder Text. Lastly, File > Save as Template.
Now that you have defined a Custom Template to your liking, you can go to Pages Preferences and under the General tab's first section, define the new custom template as your default for each new document.

HT204380 When someone called using FaceTime,I was unable to get to the IPad in time.and I missed the call. When I went to use the IPad it was locked up.unable to get further than the FaceTime screem.

When someone called me on my IPod I was unable to get to the pad in time to recieve the call.When I went to use the machine it was locked up on the FaceTime screen. And it remaines locked no matter what I do

Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Or if that doesn't work, quit FaceTime completely and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
