How do you change the appearance of iCal in Lion?

The reason I am asking as I am not fond of the "suede leather western-look" & hoped there were other options to choose from. I would think there would be but I can not seem to find info. HELP!

Thank you MacNix!!!!!

  • How can i change the skin on ical in Lion? Its so ugly

    http://stu-bot.com/2011/07/21/lion-annoyance-6-fix-for-the-fugly-new-ical-appear ance/#comment-125
    Download iCal_fugly_fix.zip or iCal_fugly_fix_silver.zip depending on preference
    Quit iCal if you have it open
    Navigate to your Applications folder, Right click on iCal icon and select ‘Show Package Contents’
    Navigate through to Contents -> Resources
    (If you want to take a backup of the original ugly version take a backup of the ‘Resources’ folder first!)
    Copy the files from the zip archive you just downloaded to this location.  You’ll be prompted to replace the existing files, and enter your password.

    Hi - is this available anywhere else now Mobile Me has gone?
    Many thanks

  • How do you change the last opened date in Lion?

    In many screens the files are organized automatically by last opened date.  This information is not available when you click command info on the individual file, however, if you list out the files and click on the option to show last opened on the row on the top you will see this information.
    From time to time it is useful to change the creation and modification dates to move where files are displayed in various windows.  While there are utilities and articles about changing the creation and last modified date using third party software or the terminal, I have not been able to find any way to change the last opened date.  This is useful if you wish to hide a file you recently opened so that another user can't just find it as one of the last opened files. 
    When I googled this question all the solutions using terminal either with touch -t or touch -mt commands changed the creation and modification dates, but did not affect the last opened date.
    Anyone have a solution to this?

    Thank you MacNix!!!!!

  • How do you change the color of events on ICal.

    How do you changed the color of events on ICal? I was able to do this when I utilized ICal on the Snow Leopard system but can no longer do this with Lion.
    I know that I can select the Calanders list, but when I create a new "Calander" it doesn't allow me to choose a color and it doesn't show up in my list when working within an event.
    Thanks!

    Phoebe,
    Right-click on the new calendar and select "Get Info."
    Make sure that the ✓ mark is selected.
    Then choose the color from this pane:

  • How do you change the time of day presets in ical?

    How do you change the time of day presets in ical?  I would like them to be only 1 hour difference, with the preset start times of 10:00 am and end time of 6:00 pm, if I have anything starting after 4:00 pm it also changes the date to the next day.  Incredibly annoying!

    Hi there jenni6,
    It looks like this is possible in the Calender prefernces. Take a look at the article below for more infromation.

  • How do you change the pink highlight for the present day in calendar when in week view

    How do you change the pink highlight for the present day in calendar when in week view - OSX Maverick

    the current day was light blue in ical in 10.6 but with plenty of contrast, but I recently made the bigger leap all the way to calendar in 10.9. the choice of color is terrible for reasons such as Spile1962 puts below, but also not having any way to tweak it is terrible. I'm on a bran d new imac and can barely see a difference and frankly, while I appreciate the subtlety, I still forget to look for the darker bar across the top of the current week and day. we should be able to adjust weekend and current day bg colors.
    I went into the app's package contents in hopes that they were using a tiff/png file that I could tweak on my own but couldn't find anything for them. all the icons are there, as are the bg sets for all the little pop-ups and things, but I couldn't even find a reference to a hex color in the plist file.
    send apple feedback. I just did myself, except that Calendar hasn't made the list (yet?), only iCal up to version 4.x, and Messages is still only iChat for feedback, and some others are old as well. apparently after steve died, apple's attention to these details just died with him. it's been that long since those other apps should have been relevant on their site.

  • How do you change the color of the appointments that show up in Calendar?

    How do you change the color of the scheduled appointments in calendar? All of mine seem to show up in red when they are actually in blue on my computer.

    Many others are experiencing this problem as well.. I personally have eleven different calender in iCal with assigned colors, all of which are different colors on my iPhone iCal.
    It seems that as of now there is no fix for this bug and that we'll just have to wait for Apple to recognize the issue.

    How do you change the Apple ID for my iPhone 4. I am able to access my iTunes account using my new ID and password on my computer; however, my iphone has a different Apple ID and I do not have cannot access iTunes on this phone. 

    Also, if you have iCloud, you will probably also want to change the iCloud account on the phone to be yours:
    Settings>iCloud - if Account is not yours, go to the bottom and Delete Account. Then sign back on with your iCloud account info.
