How do I change the default calendar app used by my system?

I am using BusyCal as my calendar application in Mavericks and using Postbox as my email application. They just work better for me than the default mail app and calendar on the Mac. One problem I am having, however, is when I get an email with a date in it, which I want to add to my calendar, it automatically opens up my system Calendar app, not BusyCal, to add the item. Is there a way to change it so that my BusyCal app acts as my default app in these and other situations like this?

Try going into settings > General > international > region format > new zealand. 
Hope that works.

  • TS3999 how can I change the DEFAULT calendar on my iCloud? I set it to Yahoo by mistake..

    When I set up my iCloud calendar system, I did not know what "default" calendar to set and it set it to "Yahoo"
    automatically. I would like to change that. Does anybdy know how?

    Thank you. What I found in settings was that I could go to Yahoo (not iCloud) and "uncheck" the "calendar" option for that account. This allowed me to default to the calendar I wished to use, instead.
    Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

    I am living in China, but I am an English speaking Canadian.
    Safari's omnibar search defaults to google.hk.

    Select the region you want from the Region menu. Close the preference pane. You may have to log out and log back in for the change to take effect.

  • How can I change the default browser I use when keying on a field in thunderbird

    Firefox uses up too much of my pc's cpu.
    When I run Firefox, it typically uses 90-95 % of the cpu and the pc slows down to where other pgms (and Firefox) run extremely slow.
    I would like to default to another browser when I need internet services such as Chrome

  • How do I change the default timezone for user calendars?

    The default timezone for new calendars is "America/New_York." How
    do I change the default timezone to my local timezone?
    To change the default timezone, perform the following steps:
    <P>
    <OL>
    <LI>Go to the bin/data/default_user_prefs.xml
    file.
    <P>
    <LI>In this file, change the values for the
    "icsTimeZone" and
    "ceSingleCalendarTZID"
    parameters. The default settings will appear something as follows:
    <P>
    <P>
    Changing these two parameters will change the timezone in the Calendar user
    interface.
    <P>
    <LI>In addition, go to the
    bin/config/ics.conf file.
    <P>
    <LI>In this file, change the value for
    calstore.default.timezoneID
    <P>
    Changing this value will enable the server to pick up the new timezones.
    </OL>
    <P>
    <B>Please note:</B> The values you enter for the above parameters must be valid
    timezones defined in the

    Colin,
    You may substitute any text you like for the "Placeholder Text", as it is called, in Pages. Click on the existing placeholder text and type something more to your liking. Do this in as many places as your particular template of interest demands. Then, Format > Advanced > Define as Placeholder Text. Lastly, File > Save as Template.
    Now that you have defined a Custom Template to your liking, you can go to Pages Preferences and under the General tab's first section, define the new custom template as your default for each new document.
    Regards,
    Jerry

  • How do I change the default apple ID that's displayed when buying or updating apps? Mine is defaulting to a no-longer-existing ID, and I don't know how to change it.

    How do I change the default apple ID that's displayed when buying or updating apps? It's currently defaulting to a no-longer-existing ID, and I don't know how to change it.

    Any apps you purchased with the no-longer-existing ID will always have to be updated with the password to that account, you cannot merge account purchases.
    To change to your new account go to Settings > Store > Apple ID: and put in the one you want to use.

  • How can I change the default city in my calendar?

    HOW CAN I CHANGE THE DEFAULT CITY IN MY CALENDAR?

    DEFAULTY CITY? CALENDAR? HUH?
    I am not quite sure what you are asking, but there's this:
    Your location for time purposes is set in System Preferences, Date & Time, Time Zone tab.
    If you are using iCal, there is a Time Zone option in iCal Preferences, Advanced.

  • How do I change the default color in pages.

    How do I change the default color in pages.  Everytime I try to copy and paste a passage, I am unable to do so because it seems that the ink is always white on white.  Sometimes I am lucky and can change it using the color box in the format bar, but it's a rarity when I'm able to do it.

    What version of Pages & what version of OS X are you using?
    A problem with an early Software Update for Snow Leopard caused a lot of problems. The problem is not whether or not your system is the current version but how it got there. You must use the combo updater, not the one from Software Update unless it specifically states it is the combo. Software Update will only offer the combo if your system is two or more versions behind.
    If you're not running the latest versions of the iWork apps & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. If you installed from the downloaded trial or the retail box, they must be in the iWork '09 (or '08 if that's what you're using) folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

  • How do I change the default iPhone screen capture format to .jpg? I have an iPhone 5.

    How do I change the default iPhone screen capture format to .jpg?
    I have an iPhone 5 (but I'm sure users with other models would like to do this as well).
    My online searches have not found an answer -- I did find a discussion thread that was essentially, "Why would you want to do that?" Those posts are not welcome! Not looking for a work-around, an intermediate step, or the need to change the file format on a computer, etc. Just want to hit the two buttons and have the resulting capture be a JPEG file.
    Not interested in jailbreaking or using apps that require jailbreak -- Want to do this with a new phone.
    Thank you in advance for any help!!

    You can't.

  • How can i change the default application to vlc player for playing any videos on my macbook?

    How can i change the default application to vlc player for playing any videos on my macbook?

    1. Control click the file you want to open.
    2. Click Get Info.
    3. Under open with, pick the App you want to be default.
    4. Click Change All Button.
    5. Confirm your decision.
    You have to do this with every file that has a different extension. You can't change the default for every file with a different extension in a single operation.
