Change name of calendar

I have tried to search help manual and cannot figure out to change default name of my calendar and cannot figure out where my iPad got the information.

I have done this over and over. I CANNOT change the name but I can change the color.
And where does my ipad get this information. It is using my initial for my first name.

  • Changing Mail, contacts, calendars name field

    hello probable something simple but how do i permanently change the Name Field in the "Mail, contacts, calendars" setup.
    I press details to enter my own but each time i do the name field is over-written with a previous owner or user of the mac.
    Until this is complete i cannot sync contacts and calendars as i want to, using OS X Mountain LIon. 

    Go to System Preferences > iCloud
    Sign out of the current Apple ID
    Sign in with your ID.
    System Preferences > Users & Groups
    Change name for current User.
    However, I HIGHLY suggest that you create a new User and move all your data to the new User or do an erase and install.
    1) Move to a new User. See directions here:
    Move your data to a new User or a new Mavericks partition**
    2) Backup your data to an external drive using clone software. While booted from the clone erase the internal drive and reinstall OS X.
    **(Fair disclosure: NeedHelp4Mac is my site. I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link.)
    Both of these applications can be used to create a clone.
    SuperDuper! http://www.shirt-pocket.com/

    You will need an external drive to create the clone unless your internal drive is large enough to create a second partition large enough to hold all your data.

  • Changing color of calendar

    The ical help says to click the info button at the right bottom corner of the ical window to change color of calendar but there is no info button. Nor is there an option to change color in any of the ical windows ie file, edit, etc. Any suggestions?

    Mudplay,
    Select a calender on the left side of your iCal window, control click it to get the contextual menu & select "Get Info", click on the color sample dropdown to the right of the name & drag it down to "Other". From there, select any color you want & control its shade or value with the slider bar.
    Hope this helps.

  • Absence Quota Change ( Without Time Evaluation )-Change in Holiday Calendar

    Hi Experts, We have scenario where we need to change the holiday calendar. Add additional holiday. This can be done through SCAL and after that we can generate work schedule through PT01 for the month where the holiday is added. We are not using time evaluation. Our time manangement status is 0 in IT0007. The input I require is how to correct the absence quotas of employees for which they have applied leave for the period where the new given holiday is created. Please advise. Thanks in advance. Regards, IFF

    Hi,
    Standard SAP provides TCode PT_UPD00 for this purpose. It calls program RPTUPD00 which creates a batch input session for revaluating absence and attendance records. You can use this program to resave all the leaves which overlap the given date which is now a public holiday.
    I hope this information is helpful for you and resolves your query.
    Thanks and regards,

  • How can I uniquely identify computers on the same network/account specifically for airdrop use?  When I change name on one computer under contacts if changes on all computers.

    How can I uniquely identify computers on the same network/account specifically for airdrop use?  When I change name on one computer under contacts it changes on all computers.  I would like to change icon and name for each computer.

    you would need to setup a VPN and tunnel into your office.
    FYI..the default ports are 3283 and 5900.

  • ICal: Changing the assigned calendar of an event sends out a new invite to all participants

    iCal version 5.0.3:
    I have multiple accounts set up (iCloud, shared, Exchange) in iCal.
    I've noticed that when I receive an invite that is assigned to the wrong calendar (e.g. to my icloud calendar) and I then change the assigned calendar to the Exchange calendar, iCal actually sends an invite to all the attendees with me as the organizer of the event!
    Instead of just changing the assigned calendar in my iCal, it creates a new invite on the new calendar from me to all the invitees.
    This seems to be new behaviour (bug) in version 5, as I can't remember this happening in earlier versions. It stopped being funny when it just did this with a company-wide HR event to all employees
    My default calendar is set to the Exchange account, but iCal seems to ignore that ever so often when adding new invites
    Any ideas on how to prevent this, or do i have to wait for an update to iCal?

    Hi Chris,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I often do the same thing (ie create an event in the wrong calendar). Are you aware that the assigned calendar appears in the info pane. You could simply select the correct calendar there, even reassign events.
    I understand the desire to do this with Quickeys, though I suspect very few people here use Quickeys. So if you don't get an answer here I'd suggest you consider the Quickeys forum: http://forum.cesoft.com/

  • After Mavericks upgrade, I disabled iCloud / iCal connection. Now I can't make any changes to my calendar

    I had multiple bad experiences with my iPhone using iCloud and when I upgraded, realized too late, that my computer was now going to be tied to the Cloud. After I recovered from the stress-induced, post-tramatic syndrome from my iPhone / iCloud experience, and verifying that I would not lose all my calendar entries, I disabled the Calendar connection for iCloud in System Preferences. Checked around iCal and nothing looked amiss.
    Then I went to schedule a new event. Right click, the New Event window pops up and before I have the opportunity to type, a window pops up with this message: "There was an error saving calendar data. Calendar encountered a critical error while saving to the database, and recent changes may be lost. More information may be available in the console."
    And left in my calendar is an entry called "New Event" that I cannot edit (I've tried using the menu as well as clicking). I tried deleting the event with this window popping up: "You can't change events in the "Home" calendar. Only the calendar administrator and any delegates with permission can make changes to read-only calendars. To make changes to the calendar, contact the calendar administrator."
    Me, I'm the calendar administrator and sole owner & user of this computer. Theoretically, "Home" should be me, not, as I suspect, some evil remnant of the Cloud sticking around to haunt me.
    Question #1 ??? How do I fix this without connecting to iCloud again
    Question #2 What is the console and where do I find the information referenced?
    Question #3 How do I make myself the administrator, especially when I thought I already was the administrator?
    Thank you.
    I'm on a MacBook Pro OSX Version 10.9.2

    Nevermind. After digging around some more in the Support community, I tried restarting my computer. Problem solved. After the mess iCloud made of my iPhone, it didn't occur to me that the fix would be something so simple for my computer.

  • The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?

    The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday.  I am synching with outlook on my computer (pc)  which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer.  How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?  I am in Australia.
    I have just noticed the other discussion points - mine is set to Australia. 
    Dear Apple - as the day that the week starts on can depend on country and religion - how about making it an option that the user can change????

    I believe the week view on the iPhone is handled by the Region settings in the phone. I am not aware of any other manner to change it, as you can with Outlook.

  • IPhone calendar appointments set to local calendar, and need to switch to exchange calendar. Have to edit each appointment one at a time and change to exchange calendar. Is there any method to edit all appoints in my calendar at once?

    iPhone calendar appointments set to local calendar, and need
    to switch to exchange calendar. Have to edit each appointment one at a time and
    change to exchange calendar. Is there any method to edit all appoints in my
    calendar at once and change the calendar setting?

    Not sure this will work but if you go into the Keyboard preferences, then click the Keyboad Shortcuts tab, and then the '+', you can add your own shortcuts for any application.  I am not sure what happens if you try to override an existing shortcut since I haven't tried using this.
    Edit/Update:
    Probably against my better judgement I'll also throw this out there - there's an Unsanity haxie called Menumaster which might also allow you to do what you want.  Against my better judgement because personally I stay clear of haxies.  It's (all haxies) probably almost certain to break in Lion.  They always do with each major release.

    Why not upgrade to Snow Leopard, if you can?
    NO. There is no way to downgrade your iPhone OS back to iOS6. Apple makes downgrades of their mobile OS not possible.
    If you can, the only thing you can do is upgrade your Mac's OS X operating system.
    Sorry,

  • Converting Video to iPod, can you change name of file

    When you convert Video to iPod format, can you change name of the new file or put some "marker" so one can tell which is the orginal and which is the new file?
    Currently it is difficult to tell between the orignal and the new file.
    thanks in advance
    Rohit

    You'd probably be better off doing this sort of editing in iTunes, and letting it move the files appropriately.
    Go to the preferences, Advanced tab, and check the box to 'Keep iTune Music folder organized'. Then any changes you make to song names or other info (within iTunes) will automatically be applied.

  • I would like to add content that changes on a calendar basis, such as 'thought for the day". It can then display a different text or image on a nominated day. Can this be done? Robert.

    OK Thanks Brad.
    I could use Tockify of course, but wanted to create the same things on an existing site.
    I do not know how to copy the code and get it onto Muse, but that’s OK for now. I will work something else out.

  • RE: 1) Changing name and IP address of an AIX 4.2 Server 2)Using NAT

    Daniel,
    you (normaly) just have to :
    1) edit the $FORTE_ROOT/fortedef.sh fileand change the value of variable
    FORTE_NS_ADDRESS
    2) shutdown and restart forte environment
    3) put the new values in the control panel of the client and run !
    It worked on our site with the same configuration (Aix 4.2)
    Good luck

    Objet : 1) Changing name and IP address of an AIX 4.2 Server 2)
    Using NAT to reach forte
    Hello Forte Users :
        I have 2 questions to make:
        1)
        I've installed a Forte Server Central Node (Release 3.0.F.2) in an
    IBM RS/6000  with OS AIX 4.2
        (The name of the server is Name_1 and the IP address is
    125.125.50.50 with mask 255.255.255.0)
        Nowadays we had to change the name and IP address of this server
    lets say to Name_2 and 125.125.60.60 with mask 255.255.255.0.
        After that we try to find any reference to old name and IP address
    in the forte directory and all of its subdirectories changing them to
    the new ones.
        After these changes we found than forte could'nt start the nodemgr
    server.
        We have too many reasons to avoid installing FORTE again.
        Does anybody know if I have to change anything more to make
    nodemgr server work.
        2)
        The second question is about NAT (Network Address Translation).
        To reach a Forte Server Central Node from a Forte Client we have
    to pass through a Firewall and NAT.
        We are researching and at this moment we can not reach the server
    from the client, has anybody any suggestion to correctly configure
    Forte (Client and Server) to use NAT between them.
        If anyone could help me I would be very pleased.
        Thank you very much in advance,

    How do i u acsess my bluetooth settings thru my phone to change name etc. Also cant connect to any devices

    What devices are you trying to connect to, and are they in pairing mode? Is the phone in pairing mode? The iPhone only connects to audio devices and to computers for tethering. You cannot use BlueTooth on an iPhone for file transfers to other phones or computers.
