Can I change the default color of Word windows so that icons can stand out better?

I'd prefer someting like white as a background color behind the functions, toolbars, etc. (I hope I'm explaining myself properly.) Also, the icons are really tiny. The only thing I see that a user is able to modify is the background (non-type) of the document itself, which I have no need to change.
Thanks all.

I don't think you can however you want to ask in the MS Word for Mac forum. If you do let them know what version of MS Office you have, 2004, 2008 or 2011. You can find it by clicking Office for Mac Product Forums

When I opt to "download this as a file" from my email account, Firefox defaults to notepad to open the file. How can I change the default to MS Word?

Question
When I opt to "download this as a file" from my email account, Firefox defaults to notepad to open the file. How can I change the default to MS Word?

Is FF downloading the file as a .txt file? If so, go to "Folder Options" in the windows control panel. Click on the "File Types" tab. Scroll down until you reach the TXT file extension. Look to see what that extension opens with (lower part of panel). It probably shows notepad. Click on the <Change> button. Scroll down until you find "Microsoft Word." Select it and click the <OK> button. That should show the TXT extension is now associated with Microsoft Word. Click the <Close> button at the bottom of the panel.
If FF is downloading the file as any other type, use the same process as above except look for the corresponding extension instead. If the extension is not listed click on the <New> button and create an association using the extension in the file name and then associate it with MS Word.

Hi John,
Thank You for your reply
I know that can be solved by using skin.
but when I use (dark - medium - light ) the appearance change without using skins.
I ask is there any way to change the default color (blue) with any other color.
- It means when I write a dark in decorativeBox theme I found the decorativeBox in red color (or any other color) instead of blue color.
- Where can I find the place which say the blue is the default color?
Thank You..

How do I change the default color in pages.

How do I change the default color in pages. Everytime I try to copy and paste a passage, I am unable to do so because it seems that the ink is always white on white. Sometimes I am lucky and can change it using the color box in the format bar, but it's a rarity when I'm able to do it.

What version of Pages & what version of OS X are you using?
A problem with an early Software Update for Snow Leopard caused a lot of problems. The problem is not whether or not your system is the current version but how it got there. You must use the combo updater, not the one from Software Update unless it specifically states it is the combo. Software Update will only offer the combo if your system is two or more versions behind.
If you're not running the latest versions of the iWork apps & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. If you installed from the downloaded trial or the retail box, they must be in the iWork '09 (or '08 if that's what you're using) folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

Could I change the default temp folder(C:\Windows\Temp)?

Hi All:
My web server is IIS 6. Sometimes the temp crystal report objects could not dispose when I close IE. I have some codes to control the evnet(colse IE to dispose CR objects) but the result is not good. Could I change the default temp folder(C:\Windows\Temp)? Because I want to delete the temp files by schedule. If the temp folder in C:\Windows\Temp, there maybe have anohter .tmp files in this folder and I want to avoid to delete them. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much. But this is not my solution. I prefer to set the temp folder by a method or attribute to set the physical path, or to change the register. On the other way, Can I set the Environment Variables like %BOE_TEMP% for the default temp folder. Because there maybe some other systems also used the same environment variables(%TEMP%). When I delete the temp file in %BOE_TEMP% folder, I will never to delete temp files of the other systems. Could I?

Can I change the default color of a calendar event?

I have a couple calendars that will be using the overlay functionality in 2010, and chosing colors for the overlays is no problem. However the main calendar defaults to green, and then when you open any of the overlay calendars their default color
is green on their calendar but different on the main version. Is there a way I can change the default so that either the main calendar doesn't show green (then each overlay owner wouldn't be confused), or to change the seperate overlay calendars to have
their default match the selected overlay color?Denzel

Hi Denzel,
SharePoint 2010 calendar makes use of CALENDARV4.CSS file. The default location of this file is [C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\1033\STYLES\Themable\]
Search for .ms-acal-item element in this CSS file and make changes to
background-color property to suit your requirement. A trial and error method could allow you to achieve your functionality.
CAUTION: Kindly make backup of your original CALENDARV4.CSS file, before making any changes.
There is a good reference/sample of Calendar Styles by Heather Solomon for earlier SharePoint version 2007 here:
http://www.heathersolomon.com/blog/archive/2007/11/20/SharePoint-Calendar-CSS--Clean-and-Condensed.aspx
Additionally, please make use of Internet Explorer 8 Developer Tools (F12) to further explore the overlay calendar CSS. Hope this helps.
Thanks & Regards,

Is there a way to change the default colors for iPad apps?

I noticed one of my friends iPad 2 had a different color scheme for apps and I would like to change my iPad 2's default ( which is currently grey). To elaborate, the default color for the borders and tabs in Safari are grey on my iPad, my friends are blue. Would like to change from the drab grey color to blue also but I cannot find a setting for this. All applications and Setup apps have this default color scheme on my ipad. Do I have to reset the iPad and start over with setup to achieve this? Hope not, perhaps someone can shed some light on an easy way to do this. Thank You!

You can apply system-wise "negative" color effect under Settings > General > Accessibility, by toggling the White and Black switch - and, in iCab Mobile (and some other, better browsers / PDF readers), its own "night mode" negative color scheme.
Otherwise, no, you can't do anything else except for asking third party app authors to add selectable back/froeground (=text) colors to their apps.

How do I change the default color (gray) that 'Edit - Find' uses?

When I search for a key word in a PDF file viewed in Safari web page using Edit -> Find
It defaults to highlighting the text it finds in light gray which is very hard to see. I would like to change the highlight color to something much easier to see on the page - like red for instance.

How do I change the default colors used by Flex charts controls?

Default 28 colors in mx.charts.styles.HaloDefaults.
I want to add some colors, How should I do?

I'm tryint to solve the same problem. There is a solution to reset the array (or to change in your case) HaloDefaults.defaultColors on the preinitialize event for example for Application.
<s:Application ... preinitialize="onPreinitialize()">
<fx:Script>
        <![CDATA[
     import mx.charts.styles.HaloDefaults;
     use namespace mx_internal;
     import mx.core.mx_internal;
     public static const myDefaultColors:Array = [ 0xff000b, 0xc87eb];
     private function onPreinitialize():void{
          HaloDefaults.defaultColors = myDefaultColors;
     ]]>
</fx:Script>

</s:Application>

How do I change the default color scheme in Dreamweaver CS6?

Hi All
I just updated to CS6 on my work computer from CS5 on my personal computer (preferences and stuff were not transferred), and I'm trying to figure out how I can import my custom color scheme that I was using in CS5. In CS5 I was able to replace the Colors.xml file instead of going through each individual color option. I haven't had the same success with CS6.
In CS5 the Colors.xml file was located at this path (Mac)
/Users/%name%/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver CS5/%localization(en_US)%/Configuration/CodeColoring
The problem with CS6 is that there is no Dreamweaver CS6 folder at that path after "Adobe/"
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Any solutions? Looking at code on a white background is hurting my eyes!

Do you think this maybe has to do with Mountain Lion?
Here's a screenshot of no Dreamweaver CS6 folder in Library/../..
And no, it's not in the "Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium" folder either. I keep going through all of the folders hoping the Dreamweaver cs6 folder will show up, but nothing! Thanks for your help guys. If you think of anything else, please respond!
