How can i get iPad calendar/contacts style for my iMac (lion)?

how can i get my iMac (10.7.4) to use the VERY HANDY, MUCH FASTER iPad style calendar & contacts views?
iPad3/new iPad - date bar w/ months & arrows at the bottom, day-week-month-year- & LIST option at top - THIS IS QUICK!!!
iMac -sloowwww flip a month - OR click to view months -  click here to view date.....  even adding a month bar to quick click at top would be faster.
it's also like this w/ contacts -
iPad3/new iPad- QUICK alpha tabs on side that show name on left w/ info on right w/ QUICK contact options to message, FT, share. 
iMac contacts - groups/or all - scroll to find/click names or search - no quick contact tabs like the iPad.
Does anyone know how to incorporate the FAST features of the iPad3/new iPad to my iMac?
Lack of these options must be an oversite and hopefully an update will soon be comming out implement these quick features across the board on all apple devices?!?!  Until then - any ideas?
Quick, userfriendly... we all want that!

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • How can I get the print to be larger on iMac lion?

    I can barely read E mails he print is too small. Also on my home page, how do I make it bigger?

    In Mail, select the email so it is displayed, then hold down Command and press the = key. This should enlarge the view on-screen of the message. This is a step-increase - do it twice and it will get even larger. You can reduce it back by holding down Command and pressing the - key.
    The same key-press instructions work in Safari and most browsers.
    In Lion and Safari, if you are using a Magic Mouse you can also do a double-tap on the surface of the mouse with one finger - this should enlarge the view. A second double-tap will reduce it back to normal. Note that this is a double-tap, not a double-click.
    In all apps you can also hold down the Control key and use the scroll-up and scroll-down gesture on a Magic Mouse - the view will zoom and return accordingly.

    You will have to restore the device from a backup on icloud.  (this assumes you have backups turned on in settings>icloud)

    how can i get the previous contact details in iphone

    You don't want to maintain a reference to the last selected node, but to the last selected path. Nodes within a tree are addressed using a TreePath, with contains references to each node from the root, down to a specific node. Look at the JavaDocs of javax.swing.tree.TreePath for more info.
    Also, JTree has getter/setter methods for the selectionPath.

    You can transfer the excel spreadsheet in to a .csv file and import to Outlook.
    Or use desktop manager (see link below)
    Do you have these numbers on another device?
    What version of Windows, Outlook, desktop manager etc. are you using?

  • How can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

    how can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

    If you connect your iPhone to a computer running Linux (Ubuntu version in my case) it will become recognized as a normal USB memory pen-drive.
    From there, you can use many methods to recover your lost deleted files.
    TestDrive allows you to search the drive (iPhone memo) and gives you the possibility to recover deleted files. I'm not an expert, nor did it with iDevice by myself. But it worked for me with Symbian phone (Nokia)...
    Alternatively:
    Check steps explained in this article.

    I set up iCloud on my iPhone, after that my contact list was disapeared, and I coudn't find out in my iCloud account. so How can I get back my contact list?

    If your contacts aren't on icloud.com when you check from your computer, and they aren't on your phone, you'll have to try restoring your last backup (or recover them from another backup source).

  • How can I get my Exchange contacts to sync over to iCloud?

    How can I get my Exchange contacts to sync over to iCloud?
    If I delete my Exchange account, my contacts get removed as well.
    My Exchange account is my default.
    I've also installed the iCloud app on my Windows machine running W8 and Outlook 2013 where my Exchange account runs on.

    You would have to export your contacts from Exchange and import them into iCloud somehow. I have to admit I don't know of an easy way to do this but maybe one of the other volunteers here will know how to do it.

  • How can I get the MS-DOS style filename?

    Hi all;
    How can I get the MS-DOS style filename from LabVIEW?
    I mean, in Windows if I have the following dir/file:
    "C:\My Documents\Misc Folder\text.txt"
    In MS-DOS style looks something like:
    "C:\MYDOCU~1\MISCFO~2\TEXT.TXT"

    A call to a kernel32.dll function does the job. See the attached VI.

  • How can I get the iCloud/iTunes password for my (now) deceased Father-in-Law's Imac?  I have a list of his passwords, but nothing works!

    How can I get the iCloud/iTunes password for my (now) deceased Father-in-Law's iMac?  I have a list of his passwords, but nothing works!  I know his email, but that account has been cancelled for security purposes, so we can't just request a new one.  I tried his security questions to no avail.
    Thanks

    Since that password is tied to his Apple ID, you will need to contact Apple; as far as I know, it will be a somewhat lengthy procedure and you will  need to furnish necessary paperwork (including a death certificate as far as I know). Best to either stop at an Apple store or call them to find out exactly what it is you need to do.

    Where is the backup of the media and other important files from the computer?  Ultimately, it is the users responsibility to ensure that backups exists. Waiting until there is a problem to decide to do a backup is not smart.  Would you wait until a fire started in your home to call the insurance company and inquire about homeowners/renters insurance????
    In the event that no backup exists (stop being lazy.... keep backups of YOUR data and other important files):
    If you are in the US and running iTunes 10.3 or later, it is possible to redownload music via iCloud from purchased history.
    If you are not in the US or for some reason cannot run iTunes 10.3 or later, contact iTunes customer support and ask very nicely for the opportunity to redownload the content.  They are not required to provide this opportunity.
    It is also possible to transfer content from an iDevice that was purchased via iTunes.  On the new computer, sign into the iTunes account, authorize the computer, connect the device then select File > Transfer Purchases.
    The simplest method of all is to transfer or copy the media (and other important files) from the old computer or the backup of the old computer.  Typing "move itunes library" into the search bar here or into google will reveal step by step instructions on how to do this.
