Calendar events coloring. Extending color pattern

Hello to everyone
for the moment i am creating multilayered calendar with events coming from doc library.
everything with overlays is working perfect except the fact of limitation of standart colors.
i need to extend colors (add custom colors) but there is no option to add new color.
any clues?
there is no honda without racing

I used to rely on Calendar overlays but also grew frustrated with the limitation of colors. Follow the steps from Planet Wilson: http://www.planetwilson.co.uk/sharepoint-2013-colour-calendar-v2/. (I can't post a link).
It uses a js file to give you full control over the colors meaning you can use any color you would like. Summarized steps below but link contains full instructions.
You'll need a calculated column that uses the following formula: = "|||" & [Category] & "|||" & [Title]
You'll need to default the view to the calculated column for it's day, month and weekly view
Add a content editor to your page and include a reference to the script
Edit the script to change the colors by matching your columns names to those in the script
Note: I haven't used v2 of the script but v1 works perfectly. There is also a 2010 version available.

Highlight calendar events with topic colors

1. I've pretty well set up iClound on my PC and my iPhone. Love the Contacts, Mail, Calendar, functions. I've set all the categories and selected colors for each category on the calendar. However, I want to have each event with the appropriate color highlighted through the text for that event. I get the event color in the form of a dot on the left, but the text isn't highlighted. What can I do.
2. Also, on my iPhone with the APP link to the store, when I go through the phone to download an app, it asks for my apple ID but it shows a different (and old) email address. I've reset the ID through iTunes, app store, on my iPhone in Settings, on iCloud in settings, yet when I try to go to the app store through
my iPhone I get the old ID and I can't change it. HELP

Sergio,
The color of an event is dictated by the color assinged to the calendar it's on.
Tap Calendars then tap Edit to either changed the color of an existing calendar or to add a new one.

How can I change a calendar event color?

Hi,
Just spent too much time trying to figure this out, but how can I change events colors in my calendar?
I'm not talking about the color of a calendar, this affects all events, but event per event.
And I don't want to set multiple calendars.
One calendar, different events with different colors...
Please don't tell me that such a basic feature is not available when it is in bad amateur freewares...
Thanks for any help
P.S. Please disregard answers like "why don't you want multiple calendars", etc...

Anyone with a solution for that basic feature?

Google calendar event color tags not showing up in IPhone iCal - any fixes?

I have an iPhone 4 (iOS 5.1.1) and am trying to sync my google calendar to the built in iCal app. The events sync both ways, but the color tags I assign to each event does not sync. It used to bother me that the only way to color code events in google calendar was to create multiple calendars, but it seems as though google calendar has added the ability to change the color for each event so I'm going back to google calendar. For example, my classes are in blue, exams are in pink, meetings are turquoise, etc.
I synced my google calendar to the iPhone iCal (via settings, turned on calendar tab listed under gmail account that I use for my google calendar), and all the events sync correctly (can add events on google calendar or iPhone and it syncs), but the colors do not sync. When I view my iPhone iCal all the events from my google calendar are the same color, even if they have different color tags when viewed online. Also, when I add an event on the iPhone iCal, the event syncs to the google calendar but there is no option to change the color tag for the event and it shows up as the default grey color when viewed online.
Is there a way to fix this? Or is this something that google and apple have not resolved?
I would prefer not to use a third party app, but I might consider it if there is no other fix. Thanks!

Hello lulu and welcome to the Palm forums.
I don't know of a way to make the color codes from iCal sync with the color codes on the Palm Z22. The Missing Sync for Palm OS has more features than Palm Desktop, but I also don't believe it will sync the category color codes.

IOS7 change calendar event color

I know how to change the color of the calendar in IOS7, but the calendar EVENTS always show in pale grey - which is often difficult to view. How can I change the color of the calendar EVENT 'dot' when looking at a whole month on the iphone screen?

The different colors correspond to different calenders. Two common calenders are Home and Work. You can't create a new type on the iPod, you need to do that on a computer on on the web. One you have more than one calender you can add events to the calenders on the iPod.

How do i get my events to change colors when i add new ones in my calendar

How do I get my events to change colors when I add a new event in my calendar?

When you add an event and you see the heading "Calendar", do you see a name to the right of it such as "Work"? If you tap on the heading "Calendar" does it show you a list of calendars?
I'm basing this on my experience using iCal on a Mac to sync with my iPad. I created a number of calendars on the Mac and assigned them different colors. Those appear on my iPad. I don't know how to create additional calendars on the iPad alone - I must create them in iCal or MobileMe then they show up on the iPad. Are you using a Mac or MobileMe?

My Color Coded Calendar Events Are Not Shown

My Color Coded Calendar Events are not displayed on my iphone. The events sync fine but they don't have the appearance that Outlook 2003 has. Dots on a calendar don't do me much good. What am I missing?

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking that I saw in the "Intro to the new iphone" thing here on the apple site that this thing displayed the Label Color of my events. But no, I just watched it again and saw that it shows the different calendars I have in different colors. I'm very bummed (at myself for misunderstanding it). This is my first ianything so I'm not very familiar with apple. Is there somewhere that I can place an enhancement request?

Color coded categorization for calendar events

I rely heavily on my calendar to track schedules for everyone in my family and I am really unhappy that the ability to color code categories for calendar events is missing - it has been available on every other Palm product I've owned. Does anyone know how to request a specific function? Or has anyone heard that this issues might be addressed?
I am seriously considering going back to my Centro for the calendar. The fancy stuff is great, but the bottom line for me is a functional calendar.
Thanks

That has been suggested to me but it means I would have to track a separate calendar for each family member and pet, meaning more work, not less, and I have found that I get many duplicates when I use more than one google calendar. It's just not convenient and it doesn't give me the option to categorize (medical appts, vet appts, work travel, different school due dates for different people, etc.) by person AND appt. type.
Again, not as simple, quick, visual or flexible as when the function was in the app.
Thank you for the suggestion, though.

Color code calendar events

How can I color code calendar events in Calendar (iPhone 4S)? I have it synced to Exchange. So if this is the case should calendar events come over as color coded from Exchange?

Not sure about adding color to the calendar as I have never done it. However, I assume it can be done based on the way the Calendar is set up in this TribeVita template. This may also be another great option for you other than colors.

How can I replace a color with a pattern fill?

Hi everyone, thanks for any responses in advance!
I've created quite a detailed design that works with 4 pixels per cm and 16 colors, canvas size 120x170cm. I'm wanting to replace all of a single color with a pattern, is there a way to do this?
I can replace a color with another flat color by using adjustments etc... but I want to fill the entire of one color area with a pattern instead. The only way I can think to do this would be to use the magic wand tool to select every pixel of the same color, then create a new layer and overlay with a fill of the desired pattern, however as the design is so detailed it would take me an awful long time to select each color!
Can anyone suggest a quicker more efficiant way to do this?
Thanks!

My wife tracks our kids on her I pad calendar by color coding each child. When she syncs with my calendar they lose their color. Can we sync and see each others calendar and keep the different colors

Can you sync calendars and keep the color coded entries of the original calendar

When you say she syncs with your calendar, do you mean she shares your calendars through iCloud, she subscribes to your calendar, or something else?
You can color-code your view of a shared or subscribed calendar the same way you color-code one of your own calendars. In the Calendar app, tap the Calendars button at upper left, tap the ">"-in-a-blue-circle next to the calendar, and select a new color.

How to print list of calendar events?

Hi,
I'm trying to print a list of events for a specific calendar that only lists scheduled events, not days with nothing scheduled.
After a time consuming process of delselecting all calendars I DON'T want on the list, selecting the time frame (4 months) and that I want to print a list, the result includes every day of the months and if there isn't something scheculed, it says "no scheduled event."
However, this takes up space and is distracting. I just want a list of dates that have an event scheduled. Does this make sense?
Also, does it make sense that there is a delay each time I de-select a calendar? The colorful pinwheel somes on and spins for a few minutes before letting me de-select the next calendar.
I am working on a Mac Book Pro, OS 10.9.1.
Thanks!
Anne

That's not from Calendar, it's from Automator.
Open Automator (in Applications Folder), Select Application (then once saved, you can just click the App to run a 4 month summary)
In the left pane of Automator, you'll see the Calendar Actions, drag to the right pane, as follows:
This is the workflow you want:
1. Get Specified Calendar Items
2. Filter Calendar Events
3. Event Summary
4. New Text File
The report will look like this (I used my Holidays calendar):
TOTAL EVENTS: 12
EVENT 1 OF 12
Summary:   Daylight Saving Time
Status:        none
Date:          03/09/14 to 03/10/14
Time:          2:00:00 AM to 12:00:00 AM
EVENT 2 OF 12
Summary:   Saint Patrick’s Day
Status:        none
Date:           03/17/14 to 03/18/14
Time:          12:00:00 AM to 12:00:00 AM
EVENT 3 OF 12
Summary:   Palm Sunday
Status:        none
Date:           04/13/14 to 04/14/14
Time:          12:00:00 AM to 12:00:00 AM
EVENT 4 OF 12
Summary:   Passover
Status:        none
Date:          04/15/14 to 04/16/14
Time:          2:00:00 AM to 12:00:00 AM

Duplicate calendar events mac to iphone

I haven't found anyone yet who knows how to fix this problem. My iCal sends 3 or 4 of the same calendar event to my iPhone. I can't believe it was easier to sync iCal with my old Blackberry. Before I look into downloading a different calendar application, I was hoping to find a solution. This was happening on my iPhone 4 and is now happening on my iPhone 5. (Mac OS X 10.6.8)
Thanks!

Can't edit Google Calendar events in iCal

I am using Google Calendar's new CalDAV sync system and their "Calaboration" tool to sync my iCal (version 3.0.5, and I'm using Mac OS 10.5.2) with my Google Calendars, per the instructions on this page:
http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=99358#ical
It seems to work ok in that I can now see my google calendar events in iCal. I can also add an event to that calendar in iCal, and it will sync to my google calendar. However, I can't seem to edit an event in iCal that was created on the Google Calendar web page. That is, all my events that I created in Google Calendar do indeed appear in iCal, but I can't edit them in iCal. I can edit events that I create for that calendar in iCal, but not ones I created in google calendar. Not a huge deal, but I was wondering if this is how it is supposed to work, because it seems a tad inconvenient.
(I do have my e-mail address in my address book "me" card, so that's not the problem.)

Yeah, I tried deleting the calendars in iCal and re-synching to them via Calaboration, but the same problem persisted.
I did find the solution after a bit of experimenting, though. To solve it, I basically created a new calendar on Google Calendar, imported all my events from my old google calendar into it, then used Calaboration to sync iCal to the new Google calendar, and now I can edit events in iCal and GCal without problems. I don't actually know what the problem WAS, but this seems to have solved it. Maybe I made my original Google Calendar too long ago and it had some old bad settings I couldn't see? I dunno, but it doesn't matter now.
For those who might have this same problem, here's how I transferred my old Google Calendar events into a new Google Calendar without losing anything: (You actually don't need to delete your old Google Calendar at all if you don't want to, so there's no reason to worry about losing your events.)
1. In GCal, click the "settings" link at the top right of the web page. Then select the "Calendars" tab. Click the "Export My Calendars" link, which should be under your list of calendars, next to the cancel button. This will download a .zip file to your computer, containing all of your google calendars as individual .ics files. Go ahead and unzip them so that the .ics file for the calendar you want to duplicate is sitting in a folder somewhere on your computer.
2. Now In GCal, click on the "Create" link on the lower righthand side of the "My Calendars" box, which is on the lefthand side of the screen.
3. Create a new blank calendar and name it whatever you want. This is the blank calendar into which you will import your old calendar's events.
4. Now, in GCal, click "Add" at the bottom right of the "Other Calendars" box, which is under the "My Calendars" box on the left side of the web page.
5. Select "Import Calendar".
6. Click "Choose File" and browse to the .ics file you want to duplicate on your computer.
7. In the "Choose Calendar" pull-down menu, select the new, blank calendar you made in step 3.
8. Click Import. This may take a few minutes, depending on the number of events you have in your .ics calendar file.
9. Once it's done, look at the calendar to make sure your events all came into your new Google Calendar ok. It should look exactly like the original google calendar, but it will be a different color.
10. NOW, use Calaboration to sync your iCal to the New Calendar you just made in Google Calendar.
11. Once it's done synching, you should be able to edit events in the calendar in iCal.

Desktop 4.1.4 does not show calendar event after changing category

Palm Desktop 4.1.4 does not show (properly) a calendar event after changing its category and does not allow me editing it (on PC).
The event is seen as "grayed" region (no boarder and no 3D elevation shadow) although with different colors reminding the category ones.
Synchronization with my Tungsten E goes normally: I can see the event on the handheld, edit it, etc.
I use Win XP Pro 5.1.2600 SP3 build 2600 installed on Lenovo X61S (x86 based).
Thanks for any help.

Make sure Category is set to all. Also try switching to a different category view then back to all.
