Calendar icon on the doc

How can the calendar icon on the dock show the current date? I need to always open the calendar to "refresh" the dock icon to the current date. Pls help....poor non-tech-non-mac person. Thanks.

You can't. I know it seems a silly omission but it's true. I asked the same question at a Procare lesson (the one-on-one training I purchased with MacBook.) You have to click on it to show correct date.

  • What is the little Red 1 on the iCal icon in the Doc?

    Uh...what is that little red 1 on the iCal icon in the doc when I open iCal...and how do I make it go away?
    I'm sure a ridiculously simple answer is headed my way...Thanks

    Moving Still,
    That means that you have an event invitation. Click on the envelope icon in the bottom left corner of the iCal window to display the invitation and choose what to do with it.

  • Where does it go when you click on the Calendar icon beside the date field?

    Hi,
    Does anybody know what page or region does it go when you click on the Calendar icon beside a date field? I need to know how it generates the list of values for year.
    Need your help. ASAP. If you need to know more about my inquiry please email me, [email protected]
    Thanks.

    It's a Date bean and it is UIX which generates the java script to pop open the dialog box and the UI. I donot think there will be any public document available on the implementation.

  • I just loaded snow leopard but removed the the mac app store icon from the doc and now I can't find it

    I am trying to upgrade to Lion. I just loaded the snow leapord onto the computer and accidently removed the new mac app store icon from the dock and now I can't find it. I guess I need it to buy Lion. How do I get it back? It's not in the mac HD apps file. Thanks

    Should be in the Applications folder as "App Store", not as "Mac App Store".
    Check first in the Applications folder accessible via that named item in the Dock (also accessible at (hard drive) > Applications).
    If it's not there, it may be in the Applications folder for your user: (hard drive) > Users > youraccountname > Applications.

  • When I try to download Yosemite the icon in the doc reads "waiting" and never does anything. What can I do to start the download?

    I have a macbook pro operating on OS X software, version 10.6.8. I am trying to upgrade to the newest version (I'm clearly behind, I know) and when I click "get" in the app store the download drops into the dock and reads "OS X Yosemite--waiting" and the only option is to click "cancel download". I've restarted the download twice and restarted the computer once. I'm not sure what else to try. Suggestions?

    Try the download again. If it shows waiting, check the App Store Purchases tab for a Resume button. If there is none, let the download sit there. Sometimes Apple's servers bog down. I usually try downloading at night.

  • Alarm on Calendar icon

    Suddenly the Calendar icon on my doc shows a number, similar to the unread messages count on Mail. There is nothing in notifications.
    I am running 10.8.2 on MBP.
    Any idea on how to get rid of this?
    Thanks

    I finally discovered I had an invitation that I hadn' t seen or accepted. I clicked on it and the "number" on my dock disappeared.
    Thanks everybody

  • Can't drag an icon to the dock

    I am a recent Mac convert and I just set up user profiles on my Mac Mini for my two kids. My son plays Pirates of the Caribbean online. I installed it on the Mac and when I opened the applications folder and tried to drag the icon into the doc it wouldn't drag and I got an error message saying I couldn't launch the application from there. I wasn't trying to start it from there, only drag it. There was no problem performing the same task with Safari. I also had no problem dragging the icon to the dock under my user profile (admin.) Does anyone have any ideas of what I need to do to fix this?
    Thanks!

    If you have Parental Controls turned on you must explicitly allow an application to launch. You've downloaded a new program and by default it cannot be run. You'll need to open Parental Controls, find the program in the list of applicaitons, and put a checkmark on it to give permission to it to run.
    Also when you get application update alerts and update a program, be sure to try running it immediately. Sometimes Parental Controls will see an updated program as being totally new and you'll need to go back in and set its permission again.

  • IOS 7 calendar icon, IOS 7 calendar icon

    Hello out there! Is there anything that we can do to change the appearance of the Calendar icon on the home screen? Also the font for the time display is too faint. The date needs to be bold or more contrast in the appearance for us baby boomers.

    Hi Ginny.....I have been so bummed out with the new calendar app in ios7.   I liked the look and functionality of the older version ios6.  I was having alot of difficulting seeing the calendar clearly, and also moving around to different dates.  (I often go back one year to compare monthly activities).  I think I have found a satisfactory work around to the new interface.  I have downloaded an ipad app called Week Cal HD.  It cost 2.99 but for me it was worth a shot cause the new calendar wasn't cutting it.  Well I am delighted with the new app.  There is alot more definition to the screen (not as minimalist) and you can change calendar colors and text size quite easily in the settings for the app.  I am attaching an image from both the ios7 calendar and the new Week Cal HD app for comparison.  I will also include a screen shot of the icons next to each other.  Hope this helps.

  • Calendar Icon Dock - Mavericks OSX

    Hey there,
    Wonder if anyone can help me here with a small question..
    My calendar icon on the dock is displaying the date on the red part of the "notepad" rather than in the white blank space. Does anyone know how to fix it.. the calendar works fine .. but is just annoying .
    Thanks!

    Test in a new User:
    Log out under the Apple in the Menu bar.
    Log into the Guest User.
    Do you see the same behavior in the Calendar icon in the Dock?
    If yes, this indicates problems at the base level.
    Boot into the Recovery Drive by holding down Command R when restarting.
    Run Repair Drive and Repair Permissions in using Disk Utility in recovery.
    Restart
    Download and run the combo updater to refresh your OS X files.

    You might need to reinstall OS X. This process should not damage your data but it's always advised that you backup first.
    If no, the problem is in your User's folder.
    Do the usual fixes.
    Restart in Safe boot mode. Log in while in Safe boot and see if the problem goes away.
    Run Repair Permissions in Disk Utility.
    Run Font Book to validate your fonts. (Clear font caches)
    Safe boot
    *  shutdown
    *  start the Mac and *wait* for the startup chime to sound
    *  after the sound, press and hold down the shift key
    *  keep holding and *wait* until the grey  Apple logo appears
    *  now release the shift key and just wait (it could take a few minutes)
    *  eventually the login screen appears with the words SAFE BOOT
    *  log in to see if the problem goes away while in safe mode.
    See this link to see what happens during Safe Mode.

    Run Repair Permissions:
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Applications/Utility folder.
    2. Click on the First Aid tab and select Repair Permissions
    3. Click on the icon for your boot volume.

    How to use Font Book to validate fonts
      1. Open Font Book in your Applications folder.
      2. Select All Fonts.
      3. Now click in the list of fonts and select all (Edit > Select All).
      4. Under File in the Menu bar, select Validate Fonts.
      5. Duplicate fonts will be marked with either the yellow badge or a black dot.
      6. Select to remove or delete duplicates.*
      7. Delete font caches (how to)
      8. Restart your computer
    * Step 6 – remove or delete duplicates is where the tricky part comes in. You can select to let Font Book disable or remove duplicates, but I’ve found that it removes the one you have not been using rather than selecting the best option.

  • Calendar Icon...

    This is a quick, somewhat stupid question. Does the calendar icon on the iPhone's home page show the current date?

    ..and unlike iCal on OS X it is always correct.

  • No icon in the mac toolbar

    on my mac there used to be the firefox icon in the toolbar but its gone and instead there is a page with some pencils and paintbrush.
    Also in my mail 4.5 it wont open links in firfox??

    Hi mortsta,
    I've seen this happen periodically, but it's pretty easy to fix. Just delete the icon from your dock. Then recreate it by dragging the Firefox icon into the doc from the applications folder.
    Hopefully this helps!

    Has anyone else experienced a really low resolution and black and white calendar icon in the notification center on the right? After upgrading from Lion this morning I wonder if I had a corrupt download or something else.

    Please ignore this. I restarted several times in a row and that seemed to fix it!

  • Managing several skype accounts under one icon in the dock

    Our family has four skype accounts.   Can you tell me how i can manage them, as I can't seem to get them under one icon in the doc (just choosing at the time which account needed). (MAC users)  thanks

    you're not alone. my ical dock was also buggy. when it was closed it displayed the date that was one earlier than the current date in the menu bar. and when i opened, ical, it displayed the current date. i removed the icon and then replaced it like you did and it fixed the bug (that was really annoying me).
    i had a clean install of Leopard, don't know if you did upgrade or clean install.
