I can hardly see calendar alerts on macbook.  How do I get it back to where I can easily see them?

I have a macbook pro 17" bought in 2011 running OS X Yosemite Processor 2.3GHZ Intel Core i7, Memory 8GB 1333MHz DDR3, Intel HD Graphics 3000 512MB. 
For the last two days my calendar alerts and notifications are appearing so light that I can hardly see them.  How do I get them to show up so I can see them?  I have no idea how this started.  I have tried looking at Notification Center on System Preferences and changed them from Alert to Banner but it made no difference.
Thanks for your help.

With respect, you actually cannot store folders on the left side of the Dock - only on the right side. I wonder if you're talking about Launchpad, which looks like a silver rocket and shows you your installed applications? It's not actually a shortcut to the Applications folder, though. You can certainly drag Launchpad into the left side of the Dock from the Applications folder.

    Well, it looks like you have an iMac, but if you go to the Apple menu, click About This Mac, then More Info, you'll see a hardware model number at the top. It might look like "iMac3,1". That will help us translate it into a year.
    When you say your programs have gone, are you just looking at the dock (the line of apps at the bottom of the screen), or have you also gone to the Applications folder (click the Finder, then Applications) and verified that they've been deleted?
    There are two possibilities that I can think of - either your install wiped the hard drive (it's possible to do that, but shouldn't happen by default), or you're logged into a different user account than your normal one. You could try going to System Preferences - Accounts, and check if there are multiple users listed there.

  • A friend of mine sent 2000  texts as a joke. Now my phone reads his phone not as an iPhone. I was able to send iMessages before untill he did his prank. How do I get it back to where we can send iMessages again?

    Firstly, slap your friend across the back of the head. Secondly, Remove his number as "iphone" save the contact.
    have him send another iMessage (make sure it sends as iMessage not text) and it should register as his full number (XXX)XXX-XXXX. add that to "existing contact" as iphone, reply as imessage. should work.

  • I lost all of my music, games, etc. on my iphone when I synched it with my itunes (and I can't find any of these files on my itunes), how do I get these back? ... i paid for them

    I was downloading pictures from my phone to my itunes.  I was prompted to update and sync my iphone to my itunes, so I did so.  Now all of my music, games, etc.  that I purchased with my iphone are gone and I can't find them in my itunes either.  How do I get these back.  If I lost them for good, I will be ****** because I paid for all of them.

    If for some reason you failed to import any purchases made on your iphone to your computer, not good, then
    you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Hard Drive Icon (Macintosh HD) Disappeared - How do I get it back

    Hi,
    My Macintosh HD Icon that has been at the top right of my desktop forever is gone. Anyone know how to restore it? Getting to the hard drive now is a pain.
    Thanks.

    I am not sure how the OS puts the hard drive icon onto the desktop. But, one thing you could do is to peak inside the /Volumes directory to see what is listed there in regards to your hard drive. To do that, start the terminal app from the utilities folder. Then, copy and paste this command into the terminal window:
    ls -al /Volumes (followed by a return)
    Then, please copy and paste the results into another post.
    The results that I get are:
    drwxrwxrwt 4 root admin 136 Nov 24 19:32 .
    drwxrwxr-t 41 root admin 1496 Nov 15 18:50 ..
    -rw-rw-rw- 1 rich admin 6148 Nov 24 19:32 .DS_Store
    lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 1 Nov 15 18:51 eMac Hard Drive -> /
    where eMac Hard Drive is the name for my hard drive. If your results do not look similar, perhaps there is a problem that can be fixed here.

  • TS4000 I have the 4s Iphone, the ability to add invitees to an event in my calendar has disappeared.  I don't have the option and used all the time.  How do I get that back?

    I have the 4s Iphone, the ability to add invitees to an event in my calendar has disappeared.  How do I get it back?  Why and when did it disppear?  Did an update take it away?

    you don't need to use iTunes to restore your old phone to factory settings.
    Just go into settings on your old iPhone and reset .. it will take it back to factory set-up with the cable showing on the front of the screen.  All your content will be permanently erased from the old iPhone.

  • Can you change colours for events to make them darker. I can hardly see them in year veiw.

    How do you make the colours for events in my calendar darker. With the up grade to Yosemite the colours in my year view are so light I can hardly see them.

    i wanted to know the same thing, as wanted to change some of the dates to red, but also because it accidently imported birthdays from address book and all of the birthdays came up in red. so maybe if you want to change one or two dates to red maybe christmas day. you make a contact and set the birthday to 25th December and the date will go red.
    silly but might work.

    I did a force close on Safari and after rebooting my macbook pro, i no longer see the Safari icon on the dock.  How do i get i back?

    If you can't get dragging to work, just click on Safari from your Applications folder, and it should appear in the dock. Then you can right-click on the icon and PIN it permanently there.

    Hello there, tonjay82.
    There are some great sources of information in the following article that might help you in resolving the issue at hand:
    iOS: Understanding Restrictions
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4213
    Particularly of note is the following:
    You can enable and adjust Restrictions, or Parental Controls, on your device to prevent access to specific features or content on the device. Locate these settings by tapping Settings > General > Restrictions.
            and
    Additional Information
    If your iOS device is missing a particular application or if a certain feature is not available, ensure that Restrictions are not enabled. Symptoms can include:
    App missing from the Home screen (Safari, Camera, or YouTube for example)
    Feature or service unavailable (Siri, Location Services, and so on)
    Setting missing or grayed out (such as Mail, Contacts, and Calendar; iCloud; Twitter; FaceTime)
    Important: Restrictions can also be enabled or enforced using a profile (typically installed when using the device for business or education purposes). You can check for installed profiles in Settings > General > Profiles.
    Thank you for reaching out to us at Apple Communities on this issue.
    Cheers,

  • Lost safari can see it is in my icloud but have searched all files and it is not there how do I get it back?

    Lost Safari looked Ina all the files in icloud I can see that it is used by icloud but can't access it.  How do I get it back?

    You cannot lose Safari as it is part of iOS.  It's on your iPad somewhere.
    Here are some choices how to proceed:
    1.  Go to your home screen, swipe from left to right, and type "Safari" in the search screen.  You will find a link to take you there.
    2.  Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout

  • My Macbook Pro 5.5 was slow.  I backed up word and  my photos and wiped it clean.  I reinstalled  Snow leopard but my IPHOTO ILIFE is missing.  I transferred word documents over and photo library but can't find IPHOTO anywhere.  How do i get it back?

    Hi All,
    I have a Macbook Pro, 5,5.  It's a few years old and was running slow.  My son backed up my Microsoft Office documents and my photos onto a thumb drive and ran 'wiped my computer clean'...using a disc that came with my computer.  (I am NOT computer savy at all).
    I was able to reinstall the Mac OS X install DVD that came with my Mac, but IPHOTO, ILIFE did not reinstall.  I transferred the word documents successfully, and my photos transferred to an icon on a 'library' on the desktop, but I can't use.  How do i get IPHOTO back?
    Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you so much for responding.  I will look for the other disks.
    One more question - I initially decided to do this because my Mac kept opening with the date changed to 2008, and I keep having to re - enter my Web key.  In addition, it was running much slower.  Since I 'cleaned' everything out, I thought all would work perfect.  This morning, the date changed to 2008; again AND it again asks for my Web key.  Does this mean my Mac has reached it's almost end or could I have a 'bug' on it?
    Again, thanks so much for your suggestions.
