Changing the default event time to all-day in Month View?

I updated to Mavericks today, and when I went to add an event to my Calendar, I discovered that all-day was not the default time. In Mountain Lion, when going to add an event in Month View, it was automatically set to all-day, which is perfect because all of my events are all-day events. Now, it's being set to 9:00 to 10:00, and I have to check the box to make it all-day. I know that this isn't much work, but when I'm adding dozens of events it starts to get a little annoying.
Calendar 7.0, OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

npatelaz,
I don't think that it is possible, even using Terminal. If you want to change your workflow, "all day" events can easily be created in the Day/Week view, but as you stated the Month view poses a problem.
Calendar Help says:
To make:
An event that lasts all day:
In Day or Week view, double-click in the “All-day” section at the top of the calendar.
An existing event last all day:
In Day, Week, or Month view, double-click the event, click the date, then select “All-day.”
A multiday event:
In Week view, drag from the start time to the end time. You can drag across multiple days.In Day or Month view, create an event. Then, enter the start and end dates and times.
An all-day event into a multiday event:
In Week view, drag the all-day event across multiple days.

Changing the Default Event Time Length?

Hello,
Is there anyway to change the default event length from 1hr? Nearly everything I schedule is 30min long and it's a pain to always have to change that.

Changing the default Repeat Times list in iCal Alarms?

Has anyone ever figured out a way to change the default "repeat times" list on iCal Alarms?
[img]http://img.skitch.com/20091129-xe9qr7yt94d8e6bq5pp3nya574.jpg[/img]
I'd love to add a few to iCal's current offerings, like "4 hours" "8 hours" etc.

Dear Rich
Welcome to Apple Forums,
I'm not sure about either of these but it used to be that you could rook the finder into opening in which ever view you wanted by double clicking on your hard drive icon on your desk top changing it to the view you want and then resizing it slightly. If you then close it and reopen it it should open to list view again. Again i'm not sure that this still works but its better than nothing. Also there is a free program called Cocktail that might do it for you( i have an old version and there for the newer version might have it when might doesn't). I hope one of these two ideas works out for you.

ICal has dropped a monthly event for the previous four months....... why did it disappear? and where is it? It was the same event but a different day each month.

I installed this same digitizer in my T|X some weeks ago. Some discussion of my experience may be found in this Usenet posting and subsequent thread.
The stock digitizer in my T|X had always had some significant alignment issues (for which PowerDigi was able to compensate very nicely) and sensitivity which was uneven, but which usually required a heavier touch than I liked.
Eventually, it began to develop a “dead spot” near the upper left. My T|X was under warranty, so I probably ought to have sent it in to Palm to be repaired, but I wasn't willing to be without it for the required amount of time, and I've heard enough reports of other T|X owners getting unsatisfactory results this way. I'd heard enough good reports about the PDAPARTS.COm digitizer, that I decided that the only acceptable way to repair my T|X would be to install one of those.
After however many weeks it has been, I am still very pleased with the results. It continues to work flawlessly; it is much more sensitive, so it doesn't require nearly so heavy a touch, and I very much like the hard feel that it has, compared to the spongier feel of the stock digitizer.
My wife's T|X still has its stock digitizer, and it has so far not shown any of the same problems that mine did, or for which the T|X has become notorious, but the feel is noticeably inferior. She's content with it the way it is, but I think that if I were to ever buy another T|X for myself, I wouldn't wait for the stock digitizer to fail. The PDAPARTS.COM digitizer is simply superior in every imaginable way; and, in my opinion, a T|X with the PDAPARTS.COM digitizer installed is sufficiently superior to one with the stock digitizer (even if it isn't defective) to be very much worth the expense and trouble of installing it.

Changing the default meeting time in Outlook 2010 to 50 minutes

Is there a way to change the default time for a meeting to 50 minutes. I can go to Calendar, View, View Settings, Other Settings, and change to 15, 30 or 60 minutes. What about 50? Any ideas or suggestion? Thanks

Hi,
I think you have to choose another time scale on your calendar. Because Outlooks tries to match the timescale for new meeting requests. It is only possible to choose 30min or 60 min.
(http://www.outlook-tips.net/?p=312)
In order to change the timescale you will find a description here:

Change the default event duration from 1 hour to 1/2 hour

In iCal, the default event is supposed to last for 1 hour. I want to change the default to 30 minutes. I know I can make the change event by event (which is cumbersome). I cannot find any configuration page to set the default event duration. Is there one?
(This seeming reality has been bothering me for years; but I'm considering migrating from Entourage to iCal/Address Book/Mail and some of what I feel are inefficiencies in iCal are blocking me from doing so.)

Typically any such defaults are configured outside of Logic via a utility that came with your Audio Interface.
Example: if you have a Motu Audio interface you use the Motu Audio Setup Utility to set the default Stereo inputs and outputs... which are then used by Logic via Coreaudio.
Not knowing what Audio Interface you are using (or mixer..) I would suggest you read the documentation that came with it.. and see how to configure it to what you need.
Note: Some cheap and/or badly supported interfaces/mixers simply don't provide a utility to enable/change default settings... in which case you are stuck with what they set as the defaults themselves.

Is there a way to get event times to show up in monthly view on iCal 7? There no longer is a box in the preferences to show the times.

Prior to upgrading to Os X Maverick, I could see the times of all scheduled events on the month view (there was a check box in the iCal options to show the event times). After upgrading, the times no longer show up and I don't see an option to change it. Was this an oversight? It certainly is not an upgrade over the previous version. It was very helpful to be able to glance at the calender to see the scheduled times rather than having to click on each individual event.

Sorry. Only after posting did I see that this question has been asked already and the answer given. Please ignore this post.

How can I change the default start time of an activity in iCal (Mavericks)?

My current default time in iCal is 9.00 AM. Don't know why. In iCal on my MBP it is 10.00 AM. Can I change that to 11.00 AM? I am not an early riser...
Gr. K.M.

If the program does not open the last folder you visited you most likely have the option enabled to autoload Bridge on Startup. Either disable that option in PS or shut Bridge down before you shut off the computer.
Message was edited by: curt y
If you always want it to start on a specific folder you can leave it on autoload, go to folder you want it to start on then exit Bridge. It should load this each time in future. Many of us discourage the autoload option as it can lead to other problems as well.

Can I change the default wait time to redial after a busy signal?

If I fax using my external USB modem, and I get a busy signal, the system waits something like three minutes before redialing. Is there a way I can change that to 1 minute? I can't find the preference for that anywhere I've looked, but I'm betting it exists somewhere.
Thanks in advance,
rb

I'm not sure this will work, but you can try it. ..
Create a character style that does nothing but apply the contextual alternates attribute (check the box under OpenType Features inthe style defintion dialog). Then add a GREP style to your paragraph style to match the "a" and apply the character style you just created.

How can I change the default alarm for events in ical?

How to change default alarm

I've been curious about this issue as well. I think it would be nice if there were more options to select the default alarm... from within the preferences themselves. Even being able to choose how many days before vs. always figuring out how many minutes are in multiple days.
While someone has found a method for changing the sound to accompany messages, users are still not able to select the type. I prefer message only (no sound), although I supposed this is the same as the current default minus any sound. I tried blank and "" entries for 'Default alarm sound' in the .plist file with no success (blank reverts back to Basso, and "" just didn't work).
I wonder if there are some other items that could be listed in the .plist file to offer more choices such as "Default alarm type". Is there a way to figure out what key variables/values iCal uses for? Someone must have figured out that iCal will look in the .plist file for a 'default sound value'. I'm guessing that there are more of these values that could be set by the user.
A similar question - it would be nice to be able to set the default alarm time for all-day events. I suppose it doesn't matter all that much since 11:45pm probably means I'll just get the message the next morning; I still guess I'd prefer something like 8am though.
Forgive the novel...

How to change the default sorting in iTunes

Hi,
Does anyone know how to change the default sorting method for all items in iTunes? I use the third option for organizing the library as a whole (the one that has a list of icons for bands that you double click to show only that band's songs). The only sorting method I use is to sort by Album by Year (ascending), this makes the most sense to me. I can tell that iTunes is attempting to remember when I do this for certain artists, but it epically fails at maintaining this sorting pattern.
To be clear, say I open Radiohead and click through to have it sort with the above method. Everything works great, but when I return a few days later to play Radiohead again, the sorting is not maintained. It could be as simple as sorting in a descending direction, or could even be trying to sort by the number it was added in my library.
I'd really appreciate it if someone knew of a way (maybe even through scripts if possible / the only solution) to eliminate this problem and have every (NOT just the artists who I've told iTunes to sort a specific way) artist sort that way.
I don't know if my copy is just corrupt? It may be, since for some artists it's started playing them in the above mentioned order they were added to my library even if I force a sort by album by year (i.e. it will go from playing a 2007 album to a 2002 album and not the 2008 album).
Thanks!

Andrew, I know I am extremely late to the party but I too use Grid View. I had the same problem that you had but have found this to work for me. I used it and it is still holding as my default sorting even after switching between the Artist page and Grid View.
Once you are inside of the Artist page continue to click on the Album column until it shows Album by Artist/Year.
That will give you each album sorted by the year instead of it randomly sorting it for you each time you leave an Artist's page and then back again.
Hope this helps.

IOS - iCal problem - Events appear as "all-day" whereas they shouldn't

See below a conversation I had with a service provider.
There is a bug in iOS when dealing with events in UTC times.
Any solution to this?

Hi,
I noticed a small problem with a calendar to which I subscribed on my iphone.
Events that are configured to last from 6.30pm to 7.30pm appears as Full-day events on iOs.
Thank you for reporting this issue. We're aware that IOS sometimes
misinterprets the iCal files we provide. It appears that it is reading
the times properly (as seen in the event detail and grid views), but is
mislabeling the events as all-day in the list view. Is this what you're
seeing?
Thank you
Michael
Exactly.
In the event's details, times are OK, but in the listing, event appears as all-day.
But why only for 6.30 to 7.30? When i change times to 5.30 to 6.30, it shows fine.
It appears to be related to the interpretation of time-zone information. We provide the game times in UTC format and count on your device's calendar program to make the appropriate adjustments for the local time zone. When the provided UTC times span two days (e.g. 11:30pm - 12:30 am, before time zone adjustment), IOS seems to mislabel the event as "all-day".
Thank you.
Michael
