How can I customize the cell format "Time"

Here's my problem:
I'm importing  aschedule from my soccer club from an internet page in csv. In essence it shows me:
DateOfMatch, StartTime, EndTime
Upon import Numbers adds to the two time cells a date as this is not included in the source data.
So I end up with
yyyy-mm-dd; yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss; yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss
What I need is:
yyyy-mm-dd; hh:mm:ss; hh:mm:ss
I couldn't find an option to get time only in a cell.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers
Martin

Hi Jerry,
Thanks for your patience.
What I want to do in the end is create an entry (appointment) in iCal This is done via a script.
The set StartDate and SetEnddate expects date&time in one cell. So far so good. This is what Numbers provides.
My problem is that the .csv file I get from the internet download comes as
yyyy-mm-dd; hh:mm; hh:mm as described earlier.
Upon import Numbers changes the format and adds a date to the "tme only" column. The date added is the import date, which I cannot use of course as I need my iCal entry to reflect the actual date of the match.
To generate the format I need for iCal I would need to delete the import date Numbers added and concatenate the imported match date with the start/end time to get the proper date aligned with the StartTime which then gets interpreted correctly by iCal.
I hope it's getting clear what I'm trying to do.
I was in the opinion there must be a way as Windows Excel can do it.
The only alternative I found so far is to change the cell formatting into text and edit the cell manually which is okay for one or two entries ...
Cheers
Martin

  • How can I change the date format in Reminders and in Notes?

    How can I change the date format in both Notes and Reminders? Preference on Imac and Settings in IOS do not allow me to change the format in those 2 apps.
    I Like to see 10oct rather than 10/10, as an example.

    I do not have Mavericks or iOS - but the first thing I would do is reset the defaults - I'll use Mavericks as an example
    From If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac - Apple Support
    OS X Yosemite and Mavericks
        Open System Preferences.
        From the View menu, choose Language & Region.
        Click the Advanced button.
        Click the Dates tab.
        Click the Restore Defaults button.
        Click the Times tab.
        Click the Restore Defaults button.
        Click OK.
        Quit the app where you were seeing incorrect dates or times displayed.
        Open the app again, and verify that the dates and times are now displayed correctly.
    Then customize to taste - OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
    OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
    Change the language and formats used to display dates, times, numbers, and currencies in Finder windows, Mail, and other apps. For example, if the region for your Mac is set to United States, but the format language is set to French, then dates in Finder windows and email messages appear in French.
        Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Language & Region.
        Choose a geographic region from the Region pop-up menu, to use the region’s date, time, number, and currency formats.
        To customize the formats or change the language used to display them, click Advanced, then set options.
        In the General pane, you can choose the language to use for showing dates, times, and numbers, and set formats for numbers, currency, and measurements.
        In the Dates and Times panes, you can type in the Short, Medium, Long, and Full fields, and rearrange or delete elements. You can also drag new elements, such as Quarter or Milliseconds, into the fields.
        When you’re done customizing formats, click OK.
        The region name in Language & Region preferences now includes “Custom” to indicate you customized formats.
    To undo all of your changes for a region, choose the region again from the Region pop-up menu. To undo your changes only to advanced options, click Advanced, click the pane where you want to undo your changes, then click Restore Defaults.
    To change how time is shown in the menu bar, select the “Time format” checkbox in Language & Region preferences, or select the option in Date & Time preferences.
    Here's the result AppleScript i use to grab the " 'Short Date' ' + ' 'Short Time' "  to paste into download filenames - works good until I try to post it here - the colon " : " is a no-no but is fine in the Finder
    Looks like iOS Settings are a bit less robust
    - Date/Time formats are displayed according to 'tradition' of your region > http://help.apple.com/ipad/8/#/iPad245ed123

  • How can I customize the msi file to include a licence agreement

    How can I customize the msi file to include a licence agreement and some splash screens. If i need a third party application could somebody recommend one. I have installshield development studio 9 and it crashes every time I try to add a license.

    We don't use the installation maker built into the application builder, instead we use a third party tool that is free and gives additional options; like including a license and to split the installation set to fit on floppies. It's called Inno Setup and can be found on: http://www.jrsoftware.org/. It is script-based but also has a nice wizard.
    Inno Setup does not give you much room for splash screens though. There are a number of shareware alternatives (not all free as Inno as far as I've seen) that does, if you do a search for installer makers on download.com you'll get a list of them.

  • How can I copy the kindle format books on my iPad to my Linux PC.?

    My iPad battery is dying/dead.  How can I copy the kindle format books on my iPad to my Linux PC?  Because i understand they'll be lost when i get Apple to 'fix' my battery.

    Meg, thanks but these are Science Fiction books from Baen Books directly.  I realize I could go back to the publisher and redownload them but there are 100+ books and I'd like to avoid that.  What I'd prefer to do is to find where they are on the IPad and then copy them to my PC and then be able to copy them back to the replacement iPad.
    Does anyone know how to do that?

    Call you carrier and ask them how you can change this.  The number of rings before voicemail kicks in is set by your carrier.  Some have the option to do it from your phone if you know the sequence of codes to send, but you need to ask your own carrier how to do it for their system.

  • Can I customize the ranges of time captured in my browsing history?

    Under history can I customize the span of time covered in my browsing history? For example, my History menu now shows "Today", "This Month", "November", and "October". I would like it to say each of the days for the past week instead of just Today. For example, on Monday the list would say "Today" followed by "Sunday", "Saturday", "Friday", "Thursday", "Wednesday" and "Tuesday". Then it would have "Last Week" followed by "Last Month".

  • How can I customize the skin of my AIR app

    Hi all,
    I have created an AIR app from my RoboHelp v7 WebHelp.
    Works and looks quite nice. Great. It's just that it did not use the WebHelp skin I created. It uses some default skin.
    How can I customize the skin of my AIR app? When I run the RH Packager for Adobe AIR, I get a dlg box come up, called, "General Options - RoboHelp Packager for Adobe AIR" and it offers me a few default skins, but it does not offer me the skin I made for my WebHelp.
    I also heard that if you learn FLEX you might be able to change the skins.
