Changing default alert from None to 5 minutes before

Hello all,
Is there any way to have all my new Calendar events have the Alert option default to alert 5 minutes before?
Thank you so much for your time.

I've never found a way to do this either, and find it very annoying. The suggestion given in this forum does not work (for events created from the iPhone's calendar); that setting seems to be limited to the iCal on the computer itself. If you find (or have found) a solution, please post it. Thanks.

    Sorry for the goofed answer. Most people are looking to set the margins and I looked over that you were interested in the tabs.
    To save tabs in fixed positions that will appear with every new document, you must modify the default template. You can't open the template from the desktop. If you do, it will open as a standard document. You must open it from the Open dialogue box from within Word. With Word in the foreground, press Command+O and navigate to:
    /Users/your_account/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/
    Open the file Normal.dotm
    Set your tabs and save the file. Close the template. All new documents will now open with those preset tabs.

  • How to set the default alert to 'none'?

    The question is pretty much self-explanitory. What I'd like to be able to do is create a new iCal event, and to have no alerts put in there as default, so it would be set to 'none'. At the moment, I have two default alerts - one by email, the other being a message. I don't want any!
    Is there a way to do this? Thanks for any and all help, in advance!

    There are a couple of ways of doing this:
    If you're editing on the canvas, press Shift + Enter.
    If you're working in Express View (see lower right hand corner of Project Siena), you'll need to copy a hard return from another app such as Notepad.
    I believe a better implementation of hard returns are in the list of requested functionality that you can find here:

  • 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.

  • How to change default alerts in iCal?

    Hello.
    Every time you add a new event in iCal, the Info panel of the event contains a series of default alerts that you may want to add to it. However, all of them are useless to me (e.g.: "Send email to <my address> 4 days after), so I need to manually edit them event by event. Anybody knows how to change them? I have already inspected all the plist files related to ical, and looked inside the ical package content, but I found no indication of where to change these values. Using iCal version 5.0.2
    Thanks,
    l

    John: Thank you, this is exactly what I wanted. I was indeed inspecting the plist with bbedit, but what I did not realize is that the file has some parts which are binary, so I could not see the PersistentMenu-lastUsedAlarms part by using a text editor. I opened it with Xcode and I did find what you were saying, and erased all the junk that was in there. In fact, the issue I had was also described here:
    http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Uk/uk.comp.sys.mac/2010-06/msg02349.html
    For some reason, it looks like after some upgrade the program adds were some positive values in the plist and I was stuck with default alarms that were set *after* the events I wanted to set an alarm for.
    I did what you suggested, then added by hand new values to the PersistentMenu part of the plist, and I am now happy.
    For everybody's information, to know what I did, it is enough to know to add Dictionary items to the  PersistentMenu-lastUsedAlarms, with 3 fields:
    -- AlarmTypeKey (this determines if you want a sound, or else an email, or else the other default alarm type keys. For example, sending an email is a Number, value 4; having a message with sound is a Number, value 3)
    -- AlarmDurationKey: This is a Number, in seconds, that determines when you want your alarm to trigger. E.g: -172800 will be two days before. Must be negative for "before", of course)
    -- AlarmParameterKey: This is a String, where you store the value that you want the alarm to have. For example, if you want an email to be sent, the AlarmTypeKey will be 4, as explained above, and this field will contain your email address. Instead, if you want the alarm to be a sound, the AlarmTypeKey will be 3 and this field will have the name of the sound you want (e.g., Basso).
    That's it. Thanks a lot for the solution!

  • Change WBS element from non-statistical to statistical

    Hi all,
    In the control tab of a WBS element, I am trying to change it from non-statistical to statistical. However, the checkbox is grayed out and not allowing me.
    I have tried using transaction CNMASS for this but I am getting error CJ727: Changing the contents of the field is not permitted
    How can I resolve this?
    Thanks,

    i guess you have released the wbse. so system will not allow to indicate the statistical check box. as per standard you
    have the indicate the check box before you release the wbse.
    if you haven't the wbse then check the field status of statistical in opuk.
    regards,

  • Customer Master - Preview (address) button, change default lines from 10

    Currently on ECC 6.0.
    I would like to change the default setting of "Number of Lines" from 10 to 6 within the "Preview" button on the Address tab within XD01,2,&3.  
    This would be a system or user setting so the user doesn't have to manually change the "Number of lines" via the Parameter button each time in XD03.  So I know we can change it manually from 10 to 6 via the Parameter button, however, I don't want to have to do this.  I want the default setting, for all users, to be 6 instead of 10.
    I see you can have a "user-specific" default sender country parameter, however, I can't find where to change the system or user default setting of the Number of Lines from 10 to what we want, 6.
    Got lost in the debugger, in XD03, trying to capture where this value was being set from.
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.
    David

    Hi,
    XD03 calls FM ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM which is responsible for formatting. You can see that import parameter number_of_lines has default value 10. There is a user exit EXIT_SAPLSADR_001 for this function group where you can change this default value. It is only called in case of address format key is in customer range (900 - 999). So maybe you can define your own address format and modify default value in this user exit.
    In case you don't want to define your address format for some reason then there are another solutions. If you are on SAP NetWeaver then you can try to use implicit enhancement point to change this value at the beginning of FM ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM. If you are not on NetWeaver you can modify default value of this FM. You will have to modify SAP standard.
    Cheers

  • Change default IDE from Oracle JBuilder to WebLogic Workshop

    On my Windows 2000 system, Oracle JBuilder opens when I double-click
    java code. Anybody know do I change the default so that WebLogic
    Workshop opens instead?
    Thx
    Tom

    Eeach version of weblogic comes bundled with a specific version of Oracle thin driver . You Can either use that or you have the option of downloading the latest thin driver from Oracle and put it before weblogic.jar in the classpath so weblogic will use that latest version of the driver
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_112010.html has all the latest drivers
    Thin drivers from oracle are deisgned to work with specific JDK eg ojdbc5 and ojdbc6 files so these may restrict you
    JDBC code will also need some changes (some package names have chnaged for 11.2.0.1 version of teh driver which we used during our upgrade)

  • Mac OSX Reader 10.1.2 – Cannot Change Default Printer From "Any Printer"

    With Mac Acrobat Reader 9.x it was possible to use Page Setup to set the default printer from “Any Printer” to one of our choice.  Once set it was possible to print many documents without having to go back and reset it every time.  In other words it would ‘remember’ the setting.
    Mac Acrobat Reader 10.1.2 does not remember the setting of the printer in the Page Setup dialogue and keeps reverting to "Any Printer" between printing; either from the same document or multiple documents.  Thus on each occasion I need to print I need to go to Page setup and reselect the printer.  Irritating, and time wasting.
    Now this would not matter if there were not a slight, but nevertheless significant, improvement in print quality between a document printed with the correct printer and “Any Printer” selected in Page Setup.
    NOW, before you all jump in with suggestions read this:
    1:  I do have the printer selected as the default printer in System Preferences (no difference anyway).
    2:  Selecting printer in the Print dialogue makes no difference to the print quality.  It MUST be selected in Page Setup.
    ADOBE, can you please get Mac Acrobat Reader X (10.x) to revert to the same behaviour as Reader 9.x ?
    Thank you.

    The same problem exists in Reader 11.0 for Mac.  In my case, it defaults to our specialty photo printer instead of the workhorse laserprinter.

  • How change default alert in Calendar?

    Hello
    Because the default sound "Basso" isn't the best alert sound for me I want to change the default sound of Calendar items in Mountain Lion.
    I was able to do this in the past, with Lion, but unfortunately this isn't possible anymore I see...
    Changing the com.apple.iCal.plist file doesn't help, since this plist file doesn't exist anymore.
    And despite what I saw on several websites (see http://www.maclife.com/article/howtos/80_os_x_mountain_lion_tips_and_tricks#slid e-3), I can't change this in Calendar neither (see image here below)
    I checked the settings in notification centre, where I can choose to have sound alerts for calendar, or not, but cannot adapt the default sound.
    Can you please help?

    Hi,
    here is a solution that is working for me in 10.9.5 (thanks to Wakko from http://iszene.com/thread-165772-post-1927711.html#pid1927711)
    (Make TimeMachine backup)
    Quit calendars
    Go to ~/Library/Calendars. Here, for each calendar there is a folder with its UUID (i. e. 9C36543C-8BA1-4264-8E3F-C1BB9FB207BE.calendar). To find out what calendar it is referring to open info.plist within it. Chose the calendar's folder you want to change the alarm sound for. It should also be containging the folder /LocalDefaultAlarms with the two files EventAllDayAlarms.icsalarm and EventTimedAlarms.icsalarm. If it does not open calendars and create a test event in that calendar. Go to 2.
    Open EventAllDayAlarms.icsalarm and EventTimedAlarms.icsalarm. Find the line ATTACH;VALUE=URI:basso and change basso to the sound you like. I had to place the sound file in /System/Library/Sounds.
    (By the way: If you want to change the default hour for alerts for all day events, change TRIGGER:-PT15H accordingly. PT stands for pacific time, -PT15H means 9 AM (15 hours before beginning of the day).)
    Reboot
    EventAllDayAlarms.icsalarm and EventTimedAlarms.icsalarm are re-created and reset to basso each time calendar prefs are saved. So, in order to prevent overwriting your manual settings accidentally, set them to read only.
    Good luck!
    Florian

  • Possible to change default alarm from "Message with Sound" to "Email"?

    I was wondering if there is a way to change the default alarm when creating an event in iCal, from "Message with sound" to "Email". The option is not available in preferences, and I was just hoping that there might be a way to change the default, using Terminal, and if not, perhaps there is another way. If anyone knows of a way to accomplish this, I’d sure appreciate it.
    Thanks very much for your help.

    Your not alone - I'm also looking for a solution to this problem.

  • Changing an asset from non depreciating to depreciating

    Good afternoon,
    We have an asset which, when created, was non-operational and was created with depreciation key 000. We now need to change the depreciation to the key ZDEP (which is straight line depreciation) from 01.04.2009. Get error message "E662 SYST - you cannot change the depreciation periods"
    We think that if we changed the day indicator against 000 to be the same as that against ZDEP it will correct the problem.
    Is this the correct solution - if so then what are the implications of existing assets with key 000?
    Have you any other solutions?
    Many thanks
    DCoutts

    Hi,
    Better way to handle these kind of issue is....
    Create a new asset with ZDEP dep key.
    And post a asset transfer transaction with ABUMN. (from old asset to new asset) on 01.04.2009.
    then check the asset explorer for the new asset, after posting the transfer transaction.
    Thanks,
    Srinu

  • Change materail master from non-split valuated to split valuated (E M3 194)

    Valuation category cannot be added in the accounting 1 view when stock is available in the previous period. Is there a way to overcome this?
    This is the situation. We have stock materials that are not defined as split valuated until the business requires so. Valuation category cannot be added in the accounting 1 view if stock is available. In this case we issue the stock out, add the valuation category and then return the stock again as split valuated now. However, we still get error M3 194 since we have stock available in the previous period.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I did not find a solution to allow you to change split value back and forth. The SAP check is hard coded and there is nothing you can do about it. However, I found a trick to be able to change it back and forth.
    1. Compare your stock figures in this period with the previous period (MM03 accounting view).
    Previous period: 20 EA; value $200; MAP $10
    Current period: 12 EA; value $144; MAP $12
    2. You need to receive/issue stock in the current period to make quantity and value the same in both periods. We have configured special movement types (copy from 501 and 201) to allow pre-priced movements. You only need to make the amount field required for these new movement types.
    In this example execute a 501 (use the custom movement type) to receive in the current period 8 EA with a total value of $56. After the movement this is what you have:
    Previous period: 20 EA; value $200; MAP $10
    Current period: 20 EA; value $200; MAP $10
    Accounting: Inv +56
                      Exp -56
    3. Make sure you allow posting to the previous period.
    4. Issue stock out (201) using postind date in the previous period. After the movement this is the situation:
    Previous period: 0 EA; value $0; MAP $10
    Current period: 0 EA; value $0; MAP $10
    Accounting: Inv -200
                      Exp +200
    5. Change your material to split value or non-split valued (MM02)
    6. Receive stock back in this period. You need to use the pre-price movement type. Receive the quantity and value so you have the same quantity and value you currently have in stock. In this example we should receive 12 EA with value $144. After the movement this is what you have:
    Previous period: 0 EA; value $0; MAP $10
    Current period: 12 EA; value $144; MAP $12
    Accounting: Inv +144
                      Exp -144
    Hope it helps.
