HT5839 Need more colors for tags than the 7 colors in Finder Preferences

Is there a way to  get more colors than the 7 colors now standard in Finder? I have nearly 12 categories and I would each to have a distinctive color.
There could be more than one shade of each color, for example.
Thank you

You can't select a color at all in the File Save/Get Info dialog. You have to set them in the Finder Preferences as I showed above. You can choose from the list of already defined Tags, or you can type in a new one.
If you want that new tag to have a color associated with it, go to Finder Preferences and select the color like I displayed (and you also did).
Here is a link to lots of You Tube videos on using Tags. I looked at the first one from iMore and she demonstrated one way to change the color of a Tag by using the Sidebar. You can also change it in the Finder Tags Preferences as I've already stated.

    Hi, does your MacBook have Firewire, or just USB?
    FW is far faster if you have that.
    Avoid Bus powered ones.

    Very unclear as to what is happening?

  • Is there anyway to change/add more highlighter colors in Preview? I need more colors aside from those already provided in the app.

    I'm a law student and I use the preview app extensively for reading cases. I need more highlighter colors aside from those already provided and it seems that there's no possible way of adding/changing the colors.

    Unlike Preview, the Adobe Reader application allows you to change PDF highlight (comment) text colors via a standard Apple color chooser. Click Tools on the Reader Toolbar, and then Comment. The second button in the Comment Annotation section is highlight text, and defaults to canary yellow.
    Highlight the document text, and then two-finger tap/control-right-click that highlighted text. On the contextual menu, you will see Properties…. The properties panel has a color well set to yellow. Click this color well, and a standard Apple color chooser will appear that allows you more creative control over your highlight color. When you click a color in the color chooser, it is not automatically updated in the color well, which remains dark grey. When you quit the color chooser, the selected color is updated in this color well and in your document. The next text that you select to highlight will receive a default yellow highlight.

  • Need more info for the ag34405 DMM VI's

    Hi !
    I'm working with the Agilent 34405a multimeter and made a little VI for data-logging. The problem is, I want to choose between 4.5 & 5.5 resolution and the is no litterature about it. I'm using the NI drivers and VI's made for this application. There is a VI named "Configure measurement.vi" in which you could perhaps select the resolution (as the default value is 0.0001, that would be for 5.5 digits I think). I already tried to change the value from 0.0001 to 0.001 but the instrument still use the 5.5 digit measurement method.
    Does somebody also know if there is more documentation as the contextual help of each VI made for the ag34405a DMM (there are more or less only default values explained, but I would need more...)?
    I've attached my VI if this could help to solve this issue. Am working with LabView 8.20.
    In advance, thanks for your help !

    Yves,
    One of the things that is great about instrument drivers is the context help on each of the controls. You can turn the context help on with Ctrl+H and then hover you mouse cursor over the control. If you open "Configure Measurement.vi" and look at the help for the absolute resolution control you'll see a good description that includes:
    Notes:
    (1) The instrument driver ignores this parameter if the Range parameter is set to AG34405A_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_ON (-1) .
    If you look at the help of the Range parameter you'll find see a similar discription with details and the following:
    Defined Values:
    AG34405A_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_OFF (-2)   (-2.0)  - Auto-Range Off
    AG34405A_VAL_AUTO_RANGE_ON (-1)    (-1.0)  - Auto-Range On
    Based on this, can you try setting the auto-range to -2 and specifying the absoulte resolution?

  • I was wondering if anybody can tell me why the new Apple iPhone 5 is $600 AUD/US more expensive in Australia than the US??? Please explain somebody?

    I was wondering if anybody can tell me why the Apple IPhone 5  is $600 US/AUD more expensive in Australia than in the US!
    thanks

    Thanks for the reply - I still know that this issue is also relevant for so many other apple products which don't involve cellular providers.... I think Australians are tired of paying so much more for things than in the US and other countries.  It used to be explained by the poor Australian dollar but that doesnt exactly work when we are over parity with the US dollar and have been for a while now....

  • Why does Acrobat allocate more width for spaces than for alphanumeric characters?

    When I convert a text file to PDF using Acrobat X Pro, I select a fixed-width font.  However, it appears that Acrobat allocates a greater width for space characters in the text file, than it does for alphanumeric characters in the text file.  How do I instruct Acrobat to use exactly the same width for all the characters, both spaces and visible characters?
    This question is actually a re-write of my previous post titled, ‘Bulk Convert Text to PDF with Acrobat’.  I know what the problem is now but do not how to fix it.
    Here's a mock example of the content of a text file.  In the resulting PDF, the H no longer lies directly under the G.  I chose Courier New 8 pt for the font.
        ABCDEFG    ABCDEFG    ABCDEFG    ABCDEFG    ABCDEFG    ABCDEFG
              H          H          H          H          H          H
    Any suggestion will be appreciated.  Thank you.

    If you are comfortable with the settings in the printing, then go back to the PDF Maker settings (create PDF preferences in WORD) and adjust the preferences for similar performance, at least in the job settings and such. The rest deals with how much you want the bookmarks and such.
    I am assuming that those PDF Maker preferences set in WORD are retained when you run the conversion from Acrobat that I have the impression you are doing. Other than that, check the conversion settings in Acrobat itself. They are in the preferences. If you the printer preferences are used when converting from Text (you will have to try to see what happens), it would use the default preferences of the printer, not those set in the print menu of an application. The latter only last as long as that application is open and only for that application. For your need, you may need to change them in either the printer (Start>Printers.. in windows) or Distiller, or both. The printer overrides the Distiller settings usually (another setting on this).

  • Need more configuration for reports?

    Hi All,
    When i start the report (Content Management -> Reports -> Approval Maintenance Report), the report is running, but when i go for Running Reports related link there is no reports are currently running. Do i need to have more configuration for this.

  • Suggestion:  Need more stickers for Calendar

    Hi. I enjoy the stickers in the Calendar so we can describe an event. I wish there were a larger selection. i.e. stickers for various holidays; more Food stickers such as a table of people eating = dining out, picnic table, etc.
    Any ideas of how this might can be done by Samsung?
    Thanks! I'm enjoying my S4.

    Unfortunately, this simply states how to get to the limited set of options in the Windows Server Essentials Server Backup - which offers a single daily-run schedule (can have multiple times in the day). This is effectively my point in (2), that this
    limited set of options (which I understand may work for some, if the volumes are not too big) needs to allow an Advanced option to have more flexibility to cope with bigger workloads.
    Suggestion (1) is a general comment about Windows Server Backup and the control that should be offered around how it should be controllable so that it "plays well" with whatever is running on the server itself.

  • Need more voltage for RAM on Neo4 Plat/SLI

    I bought this OCZ PC4000 VX ram to run on my MSI Neo4 but little did I know that the board will not put out more than 2.85 volts for the ram. This ram is supposed to run at 3.3 volts stock and can be set up to 3.5 before voiding the warrenty. I updated my bios to 5.0 beta 6 which allows me to increase the voltage up to 3.1 but it's still not enough. This ram performs better with more voltage. I do not want to replace either the board or the ram but I will probably replace the board if I can't find a solution simply because it would be cheaper than the ram. Will the ram voltage be able to go higher in future bios releases? Is there some mod I can do to increase it?

    As I see this question being asked a lot with the new high voltage modules, I'm making this a sticky and locking it...
    Even looking at Mushkin's new Red Line, only the DFI boards qualify.
    as taken from the details from Mushkin's site
    Quote
    Recommended Platforms--- Mushkin tests all Redline memory modules on Athlon64 platforms. Furthermore, when running two modules, only Socket 939 platforms are validated to run at rated specifications/timings. We currently recommend and validate the Redline memory series on the DFI LanParty UT NForce4 Ultra-D, DFI LanParty UT NForce4 SLI-DR, and DFI LanParty NForce4 SLI-DR boards as they provide the best combination of voltage options and compatibility for the Redline Series. Other motherboards may work, but may require modification for adequate voltages, and may not produce optimal results. Single Channel Athlon64 systems may have a hard time running 2x512mb dimms at rated speeds due to memory load on the single channel memory controller. Pentium4 and AthlonXP systems generally will not obtain rated specifications secondary to motherboard/memory controller limitations. These modules are compatible with most motherboards for Pentium4/AthlonXP CPUs, however end users are advised that lower frequencies achieved.

  • Do i need more memory for mountain lion?

    I'm trying to update to Moutain Lion but get a pop-up box saying that I need more memory.  Is this something I need to buy and install?

    Mountain Lion requires a minimum of 2 GB of RAM however most users recommend a  4GB or more. Installing RAM is extermely simple and yes you need to buy it. We would need to know the exact model of iMac you own in order to advise which RAM your system needs. I'd recommend contacting a trusted vendor such as OWC (www.macsales.com) or Crucial or your local AASP, each can assist you.
