How do you change the name of the coloured tags?

I want to change the name of the coloured tags but cannot see where I can do this. Is it possible to add a colour to a new tag?

How do you change the colour of the "colour boxes" in themes?

Creating a book in Aperture the various "Themes" offer you different layouts. When you are in a Theme - is there a way to change the colours of the background boxes (Not page colour) - I have searched everywhere to see how to do this and a simple thing like this seems like it is not possible. Yes you could make a photo of the correct colour you want and drag it in but surely there is a simple way of changing the colour of these theme boxes.
The theme I am using is Special Occasion and I want to darken the lightblue boxes behind the text.
Would appreciate anyone out there who could advise on this please, thank you in advance.

Richard,
there is no built-in option to change the color boxes. You can only change them by patching the Resorces in the Aperture application bundle, and that is risky.
The color of the background boxes is set in the property list (for the Extra Large Book):
/Applications/Aperture.app/Contents/Resources/Book Themes/Special Occasion/ExtraLarge/Graphics/BlueRect.plist
The current value is:
backgroundColor {224, 241, 238, 100}
To try what happens, when this value is changed, I edited it to {100, 200, 255, 100}
You will not really want to patch your Aperture application bundle
What you might try, would be to copy the "Special Occasion" subfolder of the Book Themes and to create your own custom theme from this and install it in your user library
~/Library/Application Support/Aperture/Book Themes/

How do you change the colour of the text box?

A lot of the text box options seem different for DC. Is there a way to change the colour of the text box that you create/the borders etc.?
In the past, you would just press Ctrl+E and a toolbar would pop up so that you could fiddle w/ the colour of the background etc. This seems to be gone.
Thanks for your help!

Hi, Rahul,
Thank you for replying back.
Unfortunately, I have tried what you have suggested and the only thing that I get is a box that says "Properties: No current selection."
Could you please possibly see what it is that I am doing wrong?
I created the text box, wrote whatever inside, clicked somewhere outside the box and then clicked on the text box and I still only get "Properties: No current selection."
Thank you,
Arrom

Same question for the "2 iPhones in one account".....How do I change the name. My iPhone is showing my wife's iPhone name when I am syncing it. Why is that? I know about using one iTunes account....But how do you change the name w/o erasing your data?

Hi....How do you change the name? When I sync my iPhone, it shows my wife's name on it?

Unfortunately it is not doing it....
Let me give more details..We have 3 iPods and 2 iPhone4....I recently purchased the iPhone4 and when we connected it..It was already reading my wife's iPhone4..We went to the Apple Store at the Grove today and was told to de-authorize the system and connect my iPhone4 back and I should be able to change the name.
Nothing happened..Right now, I clicked on RESTORE settings...and it is uploading a new iPhone update.

Jerry,
Thanks for replying again. I've got a little bit further thanks to you. I tried the US keyboard layout as you seemed pretty definte that it should work. This time I applied the setting and also started the language toolbar and selected it from there.
Hey presto, I've got the @ where it should be. Excellent.
However the single quote ' works in a weird way. When I press it, it doesn't show up on the screen. But when I press another key, I get the single quote plus the next key I press. When I press the single quote twice, I get 2 of them. This is also the same with the SHIFT ' key. i.e. for the double quotes.
Very strange. I'll look at other keyboards and see where that gets me.
Thanks, Maz

How Do You Change The Name Of A Folder?

I have a very simple, almost ashamed to ask, question. How do you change the name of a folder? As always, thanks in advance.

Howard,
Click (select ) the folder, hit the return key and start typing...
Before you start typing, you can go to the beginning, or the end of the title without deleting the title by using the back/forward arrow keys.

How do you change the name of a folder/file on an expansion drive or external hard drive?

The same way you change it on the internal drive; click on the name and wait a second or two for the field to drop into editing mode, then just type the new name. Or Get Info on the file/folder and change the name there.
Regards.

Hello how do you change the account name

Hello I've bought a second hand Mac mini.
Under system preferences...users and groups...user admin...advanced options
How do you change the user ID, Group, Account name and home directory name?
When I go to do this there is a warning sigh that the user won't be able to log in. As I'm the new owner of the Mac mini I'd like to put my own name there but not share if I'm doing it right.
Thanks Edd

Hello Eddie,
Good thing you asked, not that easy, & can be dangerous...

If it were me, I'd just make a new admin account, leave the old one for emergency use.
