How can you change the default setting for the alarm for new events?

When I create a new Event, it will create an alarm that will activate 15 minutes before the event. I'd like to change the settings so the default setting would be that when I create a new event it will activate 1 day before the actual event. Is it possible to change this? Thanks.

Greetings, David.
alarm...activate 1 day before the actual event. Is it possible to change this?
Sure.
_Go to iCal > Preferences > General >"Add a default alarm to all new events and invitations"
_Change the current value from 15 minutes to whatever minute value you like (1440 for 24 hours).
_Of course this will only affect NEW events. Not those already created.
_Close the window and your done.
Hope that helps.

  • How can I change scanner default setting.

    I just installed a new printer/scanner (hp Envy 7640).  Every item I scan is opened by Adobe Reader, by default, even scans of photos, so the format is always pdf.  I need the format to be JPEG so it can be read by iPhoto.  With my previous scanner on the same mac, all documents and photos would be opened by Image Capture, presumably be default.  That worked best for what I do.  How can I reset the scanner default to Image Capture?  My OSX is Mountain Lion 10.8.5.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for your response.  Sorry for the delay.
    I knew about the Image Capture route but was hoping to have all scans automatically opened by Image Capture  (as before) without the extra step of opening it separately.
    I really dislike Adobe Reader although I have no choice but to use it for most documents sent to me.  I'm not sure how it became the default for the scanner.
    I see that someone else had a similar question and the answer was to go through Image Capture, so I guess that'll have to do.

  • How can I change an already set up mac to a new admin account

    This is an upgrade Snow Leopard 10.6.8 from Tiger. I have always had the same logon which I thought gave me admin priviledges and I was trying to install Digital Performer 7.24 and I got a message that I did not have sufficient priviledges to install hard drive authorizations and I needed to sign in with an admin account which I thought I had presumeably done already. I had signed on the account that I had used from the time I had authorized tiger. Since it took consiiderable time and effort to install many Pro Audio music plugins I don't want to start again at ground zero. Help me if you can:)

    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
    Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select Disk Utility.
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk.
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.  Reinstallng Digital Performer 7.24 should now work.  If not, you should contact its customer tech support department - http://www.motu.com/techsupport
    Do you meet all of Digital Performer 7.24 system requirements?
    Version 7.24
    • Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) compatibility
    • Improvements and optimizations
    Minimum System Requirements
    Digital Performer 7.24 requires a computer with a 1 GHz G4 processor and 1 GB of RAM running Mac OS X v10.5.8 Leopard or later to install and run. A display resolution of 1024 x 768 is also required.
    System Recommendations
    The minimum recommended system for Digital Performer is a multi-core or multi-processor Power Mac G5 or Intel-based Mac with 2 GB of RAM or more. A display resolution of 1280 x 1024 is also recommended.
    Pro Tools|HD System Requirements
    Digital Performer supports DAE versions 8.0–8.0.3 with the following Digidesign Pro Tools systems:
    • Pro Tools|HD (1, 2 or 3)
    • Pro Tools|HD Accel
    Pro Tools version 8.0 cs3 or later is strongly recommended. Support for Pro Tools 8.0.3 requires that Pro Tools is installed before installing Digital Performer 7.1 or later.

        DIVAB71,
    Great question. The line access fees for the account are a set amount and can not be changed unless you are going from a basic to a smartphone or vice versa. If you are wondering about adding the month to month discount if you are out of contract Ann154 has provided great information on how to access and add the feature.

  • I just set up a wireless network using an airport express. How can you change the network name

    How can you change the name of a wireless network set up with an airport express

    Yes, you can. If you use the current AirPort Express, Apple says that you can connect up to 50 devices. Realistically, make that 25-30 or so before the speed really begins to drop.
    Remember that you will have to reset the modem though, before you connect it to the AirPort Express as the modem "remembers" the settings for your computer.

  • How can you change your security question for I tunes?

    How can you change your security question for I tunes?

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • HT204150 How do I change my default email on the "Me" contact from a Facebook email to my normal email address in the same contact?  Or at least change it for the autofill information?

    How do I change my default email on the "Me" contact from a Facebook email to my normal email address in the same contact?  Or at least change it for the autofill information?
    Perfernece for contact to change.  Do I just have to dis-associate my contact fromt the facebook account?  Is only the autofill changable?

    If you allow Facebook to access your contacts and you have the @facebook.com email alias turned on, it will add the @facebook.com email to your contact info, and because it has the fixed label of "email" it overrides every other email address.
    They didn't fix this in iOS 8.
    There are two ways to remove the @facebook.com email from your contact info:
    If you don't need your Facebook friends and their info updating your contacts, go into iOS Settings -> Facebook and turn off access to Contacts.
    If you don't use your @facebook.com email address (all it does it forward to the primary email address) you can go into the Facebook app, More -> Settings -> General -> Email -> and uncheck "Use your Facebook email". Removing it from Account Emails does not work, you have to turn it off. Once you do this, go to iOS Settings -> Facebook and turn Contacts off and on again to make it update your info. The @facebook.com address should be removed.

  • How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?

    How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?  I searched the system and finder prefs to no avail.  Changing the screen density is not a good option.
    Thanks

    I downloaded Tinkertool.  Found the font section and increased the size of most selections.  The only thing that changed that I can see is the window label.  The apple line, bookmarks line, the tool bar in safari are all the same---font size of about 4.  Found the finder "show view options" but that didn't seem to change anything either.  I'll keep working.  Restarted all apps after changes as well.

  • How can you change the banner of the FTP-server on the Linksys WRT610N ?

    Dear readers,
    My question is this : How can you change the banner of the FTP-server on the Linksys WRT610N ?
    At present it says : "Welcome to WRT610 Router's FTP service" which gives away the type of the device.
    Which is a clue I would rather hide. Besides that I would like to change it to something more personal.
    But how do you do that ?
    The UG is silent about this.
    Regards
    John

  • ICal in OS X Lion default on new entries is 'all day'.  How can I change that default?

    The OS X Lion default on new iCal entries is 'all day'.  How can I change that default?  It seems odd that the default would be 'all day' when most entries are for meetings lasting less than that. 

    Unfortunetely the only way is to uncheck the box each time you set up an entry. I trust enough feedback from users will convince Apple to change that in the future.

    Yours will help that effort.
