ICal Dock Icon - how to rotate the date to a straight, vertical angle?

As you all know the date in the iCal-Doc-Icon is rotated a few degrees against clockwise. I would love to have this straight, because this **** icon is the only one which jumps out of the line, this is driving me nuts ^^
There must be a way to rotate the date a few degrees clockwise...anyone with some good knowledge?
Thanks guys!

Like this? Looks funny, do you really want to do it?
This is a somewhat risky operation; you should only try it, if you understand the structure of an application package and know what you are doing, for you have to exchange a file in the Resources folder of the iCal application, and probably even then it is not really worth the risk
The steps to do:
Create a custom application icon of the rotated, empty calendar (without the day numbers) - I put an icon file here: http://dreschler-fischer.de/icons/App-empty.icns.zip, download it and uncompress it.
Quit iCal. Make a backup copy of the iCal Application. Make sure this backup copy is working by launching it and quitting it again.
Select the iCal Application in the Finder. Ctrl-click it, and select "Show Package Contents". Open the Folder "Contents", then the folder "Resources".
Make a backup copy of the icon file "App-empty.icns" in the "Resources" folder; then replace the icon file "App-empty.icns" with the straightened icon file. You will have to authentificate as administrator to do that.
Close the package folder and relaunch iCal.
If you messed up the application, restore it from the backup copy you made.
Cheers
Léonie
P.S.
icon is the only one which jumps out of the line, this is driving me nuts
Don't you have Mail, GarageBAnd, iPhoto, dictionary, Textedit, AddressBook? My icons are all rotated ....

  • ICal dock icon wont update in Leopard

    My iCal dock icon has stopped updating the current date.
    I have dragged the icon off the dock and re-dragged a fresh version from the iCal application but this only works for the current day where again it will not update the next day.
    I have had Leopard for almost 2 months and this problem has only just started in the last week.

    Yes, I have the same problem as well. And it started happening after the recent software update. I have also tried the suggested solution - dragging out the icon and restarting, but it still doesn't work.
    When I upgraded to Leopard I was happy that everyday the iCal icon updated the date automatically, but I think the Tiger way of launching iCal at login and hiding its window would have to be the solution in Leopard as well

  • ICal dock icon "stuck" on fixed date

    Today is July 6, but the iCal dock icon on my MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard says 5. Yesterday, it said 1, but I rebooted last night. The icon changes to the correct number when I launch iCal, but as soon as I quit, it goes back to showing the day I last rebooted.
    Any ideas? This one has me stumped. No problem with iCal running on my Mac Mini with Leopard. Adding new events doesn't change a thing.

    I noticed this morning mine said Jul 7. When I clicked on it to open iCal, then closed iCal it said Jul 9. Annoying since I use that icon as a quick "date check" sometimes.

  • ICal dock icon contains a "1" in the right corner

    My iCal dock icon has a "1" in the upper right corner and I do'nt know why it is there or how to remove it.  Any thoughts?  It's probably a simply fix but I am brain dead on this. 
    Thanks.

    Nicholas,
    The number "1"  means that you have an event invitation. Use iCal>View>Show Notifications to choose what to do with the notification.

  • ICal dock icon & iPhoto event's name issue

    Recently I noticed that the date number in the iCal dock icon and the event's title in iPhoto were a few pixel shifted up. How can I solve this?
    Here are two screenshots:

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Yes, I see on the iCal icon the 4 is shifted up into the red. It's odd. Try this...
    It may be LaunchServices. These are only cache files but can get corrupted.
    Launch /Utilities/Terminal and *copy & paste* this at the command line to rebuild LaunchServices:
    Code:
    <pre class="alt2" style="margin:0px; padding:3px; border:1px inset; width:640px; height:34px; overflow:auto">/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchSe rvices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user</pre>
    Then press return. Wait until terminal returns to the command line. Quit Terminal. After that, log out and back in or restart. Let us know

  • Alert indicator on iCal Dock Icon

    My iCal dock icon has a '1' in a red circle. I assume this indicates an alarm for an event or ToDo. How can I find the event or ToDo in question? And, can I instruction iCal that I don't want it to be showing the indicators on the Dock Icon?
    Thanks for any assistance

    John,
    My iCal dock icon has a '1' in a red circle.
    That means that you have an event invitation. Click on the envelope icon in the bottom left corner of the iCal window to display the invitation.
    ...can I instruction iCal that I don't want it to be showing the indicators on the Dock Icon?
    Go to Mail>Preferences...>General>Add invitations to iCal: (Never)
    ;~)

  • ICal Dock Icon Query

    My iCal Dock Icon has a red circle with a "one" in it - similar to unread emails in Mail.
    I'm sure this is an alert of some kind - but what? How do I locate it?

    ArchiTexan,
    Welcome to the Forums! Now I'm using 10.5.6 so it might be a little different but for me I goto:
    Show -> notifications from the menu bar along the top. That badge is for notifications and invitations. If you want to turn it off so they don't automatically add goto preferences and turn off Automatically add invitations from Mail.
    Hope that helps,
    Weston

  • How to pass the data from a input table to RFC data service?

    Hi,
    I am doing a prototype with VC, I'm wondering how VC pass the data from a table view to a backend data service? For example, I have one RFC in the backend system with a tabel type importing parameter, now I want to pass all the data from an input table view to the RFC, I guess it's possible but I don't know how to do it.
    I try to create some events between the input table and data service, but seems there is no a system event can export the whole table to the backend data service.
    Thanks for your answer.

    Thanks for your answer, I tried the solution 2, I create "Submit" button, and ser the mapping scope to  be "All data rows", it only works when I select at least one row, otherwise the data would not be passed.
    Another question is I have serveral imported table parameter, for each table I have one "submit" event, I want these tables to be submitted at the same time, but if I click the submit button in one table toolbar, I can only submit the table data which has a submit button clicked, for other tables, the data is not passed, how can I achieve it?
    Thanks.

    Hi, 
    I would recommend you to have a look at the VI attached. It makes use of a VI named 'Read from Spreadsheet' to read the row and column data from the tab delimited excel file. The read data is then searched for the Alphabet specified and finally returns you the corresponding string. The test file used to validate the operation of the VI is also attached. 
    Trust this would help you solve the issue.
