IOS7 Reminders app keeps changing color

With the updated version of the Reminders app in iOS7, users now have the ability to set a color scheme for each list they have created.  However, the color of my default list keeps changing back to orange every time I either add a new task or mark a task as completed.  Regardless of how often I manually change the color option back to any other color (I'd prefer red for my default list), that particular list always reverts back to orange anytime the list is modified.  Although its not huge issue, its becoming increasingly frustrating that I cannot set the color of the Reminders list that I use all of the time. 
Anyone else experiencing this issue and are there any solutions? 
Thanks!

Hello SofaKeenGrad,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the Reminders app will not keep the color you select for some reason.
I have a few recommendations for you here:
First I would start by closing all the running apps on the phone:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
From: iOS: Force an app to close
          http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
When you have done that, next I would restart your iPhone.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists after that, I would try backing up your phone to iTunes, then restore your phone.
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Before you restore your phone from your backup, try setting it up as new, and verify the Reminders app works as expected. Then restore from your backup, and test the issue again.
All the best,
Sterling

    It's a glitch, ignore it and wait for Apple to fix it.

  • ICloud / Calendar app keeps changing my calendar colors

    I just noticed this happening two days ago, the calendar app on my iphone and macbook is changing the colors of my calendars at random. They're only cycling between two colors for each of the 3 calendars (the original color, green, orange, purple and the changed color of blue and purple). I have no idea why it's doing this. No one else has access to my icloud account, and so far I have not noticed any loss of data. I've backed everything up. The same thing is happening on my iphone as well.
    OSX 10.8.4, Cal version 6.0 (1648)
    It's more of a nuisiance, but I don't want to lose appointments if this is a sign of something else going on. Any ideas?

    sorry. please disregard. I did not check out the other threads about this issue.

  • Isight videos keeps changing color tone and temperature

    When I try to record a movie with isight, the color temperature keeps changing and flashes from a warmer color to a cooler color. It never stays in one tone. Help!

    Welcome to Discussions, kaynen430
    (0) The first thing to use on any iSight problem is http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
    For system wide problems, the reset suggested there often restores proper iSight functioning.
    If the problem is only with the _one app_ that you are now using to record video, reinstalling that app may help.
    However, if your iSight's color keeps changing in all Apple apps and in all user accounts you test, you may have a system software issue. You can test whether software will correct your problem by trying the following:
    (1) First, use Disk Utility to repair permissions.  Then download and apply the COMBO update for the Mac OS version that you use. You do not show which OS X version you use, but you can find it in the list returned by this search:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=search&product=&q=combo%20AND%20update
    Repair permissions again IMMEDIATELY after the restart that finishes the installation.
    Then test iSight again. (Repeat iSight Troubleshooting suggestions if necessary.)
    (2) If properly applying the Combo Update does not resolve your problem, you may have problems within the basic OS X software.
    To test that, reinstall your OS X, update to the latest OS X version you use by using the process in (1) above, and then check again for proper iSight function.
    (3) If you need to post back for more suggestions, it will be helpful if you also post the following:
      • OS X version (you may want to add this to your Profile in "My Settings" when logged in)
      • Which app and version you originally posted about
      • Whether your problem is EXACTLY the same in every app and user account you tested
      • Which of the suggestions already offered you have used
      • Anything new you learned while trying the suggestions above.
    (4) We will watch for your status update and offer specific suggestions based on the details in your reply.

  • Why does the color on my calendar keeps changing colors on its own

    I have several color coded calendars for each family members.  My daugther's calendar all of a sudden changed from green to blue (which is my son's) by itself.  I changed it back to green and it automatically changed back to blue again.   This happened once before a while back and after I keep changing back the color, it corrected itself eventually.
    Why is this happening and how can I fix it permanently?
    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Same problem on top of regularly dropping WIFI when all of my other devices have no problem.
    Owned this laptop since FEB 2014. My worst experience with a laptop to date. Wish I'd bought ASUS now which I also considered before buying.Another family member bought ASUS & no issues.

  • Why does firefox keep changing colors?

    Suddenly the Firefox background color keeps changing (blue, tan, gray) I would like to keep it one constant color. How/ why did this happen today when I changed nothing, and how do I fix this?

    Are you using Firefox theme and choose Random theme option?
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
    ''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
    ''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
    Thank you.

  • Firefox fonts keep changing colors.

    When I go to a webpage and try to start reading.......the text starts changing colors and the font changes to weird looking symbols, like an alien font and can not be read. If I highlight the text.....it will correct....but will return to alien within a min. But the biggest problem with firefox is it's inability to scroll smoothly. I have used firefox for about six yrs. now and this problem has never been fixed. I have used firefox on many hardware platforms and many windows operating systems.....firefox has always had a horrible scroll. I appreciate any help...but have tried the option settings for yrs. now to no avail. I'm afraid my frustration will take me to a different browser.

    Thank you very much. That seems to work very well. I really do appreciate it. The same thing has been going on with my girlfriend's rig. I also found this...."I was trying to get the same impression of ease and speed Chrome scroll has from Firefox 17 @ Linux, AMD64 and after trying several setups here is how to make your Firefox to give even better feel than Chrome:
    1. Set mousewheel.min_line_scroll_amount to 40 (WAS 5)
    That was a great start though Firefox scroll will still appeared jerky. (Chrome has that value lower, but I liked it at 40)
    2. Set general.smoothScroll and general.smoothScroll.pages to false
    Smooth scrolling is bad for the IT professionals giving extra pressure to the eyes and Chrome doesn't use it in the same way as Firefox does. Now we're close but still all the pages in tabs are a bit jerky.
    3. And now the final ingredient. It appears that all the hieratic scroll was caused by image discard check routine. Do not turn it off just set image.mem.min_discard_timeout_ms to something really large, I set mine to 2100000000 (WAS 10000)
    After that increase image.mem.max_decoded_image_kb to at least 512K (WAS 256000)
    Done. In my case (Gentoo, amd64) this setup changed how the page within tab scrolls (very smooth now), how FF switches between tabs (it's now very smooth too, chrome like) and overall impression of how all the opened tabs are performing was increased. May be the change is not same within different systems but it's worth a try if you want to improve FF responsiveness. "
    I tried that and it seems to tame the scrolling down quite a bit. Not sure what it all does....but it allows me to keep firefox and I do thank you.

  • Photoshop keeps changing color code

    When I open the color picker in photoshop CS4 I enter the color code fd02c5. For some reason it won't let me use that exact color and keeps automatically changing it to d54599. It has done this before with other colors.
    How can I get it to use that exact color and stop changing it?

    Your doc is CMYK and fd02c5 is outside the gamut (available colors) of your CMYK color space. Try working in sRGB or pick a color within the CMYK gamut.

  • Default Apps Keep Changing

    For multiple programs and file types my changes in default apps do not "stick" after rebooting/restarting. This happens with Entourage, Acrobat, and others. What can I do to get my defaults application assignments to be stable?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Sounds like a hosed LaunchServices database. Run this command (one-liner) in the Terminal.app (/Applications/Utilities/) by copying & pasting it in, and hit the return key:

  • Apps keep changing by themselves

    First, no, I do not have any boxes checked in the App Store System Preference.
    Almost daily now, little things change in various apps. TextEdit and Preview, for example, have suddenly - each on separate days - taken to showing previously used windows when they open. That is, the apps will have windows from prior uses showing when opened again - old text files and images respectively.
    I had used a solution from this site to stop Mail from always grabbing focus when another of several apps were terminated. That lasted for an hour or so.
    Is there any way that apps, or system files, can be updated without my having initiated the action? Can I check somewhere to see what updates have occurred over time?

    To be clear, when I say 'save', I mean select the 'Move To' Message menu pick. Further, the issue in question is the appearance (or not ) of an additional pick on the Message menu, to wit, Move to {folder name} Again ... And in all cases, in all tests, the folder named in the Move To process was the same one.
    There is only one other user - my wife, who is afraid to even empty the trash. I did the test in that account as well, and it functioned the same as on my own account. On to the suggested Safe mode test.
    Prior to shutting down, I had sent myself a test message, retrieved the mail, selected that message in the Inbox, pulled down the Message menu, and noted that the 'again' message pick was not there. I left that message in the Inbox and restarted in Safe mode. Then I selected the leftover message, pulled down the Message menu, and the 'again' pick was not there. I left the message in the Inbox.
    Then I restarted normally, did the same sequence, and the 'again' pick was still missing. Hmmm. I sent myself a second test message, went through the process again, saving first the leftover message (no 'again' pick showed), and then the new second message (the 'again' pick had returned). So one thing I discovered was that the 'again' pick does not survive a restart, for whatever that's worth.
    Then, realizing that there was another case, I started all over again. In Safe mode I created, sent, retrieved, and saved two messages in that one session. The behavior was as I have described - no 'again' pick while saving the first, 'again' reappeared for the second save.

  • IPad2 on iOS7, iPhone apps have changed

  • Reminders app alert time keeps disappearing on iPhone 4s

    I use my phone's Reminders app frequently and have started having problems with the "Remind me on a day" option.  Today I noticed that whenever I set a time and date for a reminder alert, it disappears after a few moments, leaving just the text I entered but no alert time (ie, a reminder to start dinner at 5:00pm on Tuesday will show up properly on the reminders home screen for a few seconds, and then the alert time will disappear, leaving just "Start Dinner"). Since the alert times keep disappearing, none of my reminders actually work at the moment.  I also have weekly reminders that I've used for over a year but starting today they now show up as "(null), weekly" underneath the original reminder text.
    I exited the app, restarted my phone and then did a hard reset, but nothing has changed the way the app is behaving.  Creating a reminder through Siri just gives me the same problem.  I haven't done anything out of the ordinary with my phone so I'm not sure why it's not working properly.  Thanks for any help you can give!

    Apple Reminders App (default iPhone app)

    What part are you talking about setting up? The 2-step verification I mentioned for that email or the reminder list? The 2-step verification you need to set up before anything. It's just another way of protecting yourself from idiots. You'd get a code from your phone that helps you sign in on PC. But this stupid "Reminder" stuff is killing me. I had to do a total wipe of my phone and make it like a brand new phone again with nothing on it. And even after all that when I went to test a new reminder I'd put in...it did the same thing just shut itself off. Didn't say "null" tho just kept shutting itself off. I even made a new list not tied to my yahoo...did the same thing. So after all that I just went back in and restored my phone to the way I originally had it. I figured it wasn't anything on my phone and it had to be something with Apple itself and I wasn't going to spend hours just trying to remember what I had on here so that's why I just restored to the backup I had prior all this. I did call the guy I'm working with over at Apple and left a message that it didn't work again and I put phone back the way I had it. But I'm gonna try all this up on my PC to see if this works. Ugh this is just taking up my time and I've not yet heard back from the yahoo customer service guy I sent the pics too showing him these issues...typical. I just feel that with so many having this issue that they need to report it to Apple so they can fix it or at least look into it. They won't do much just because I say there's so many others. I think I'm gonna try to copy that list from my yahoo and sync it with iCloud and see if that works and if it does then it was yahoo all along. Besides when I make that list with iCloud it won't be lost or anything ya know. Just seems like I'm having too many problems with yahoo stuff. I do have a gmail but don't use it like yahoo because they spy on you and share things etc. but outlook is synced to Apple so might be worth a shot to start using them. I do t know anymore I'm at a lost  

  • Calendar colors keeping changing to purple

    one specific calendar keeps changing by itself to purple. even when i change it back to the color i want, it goes directly back to purple. this happens on my ipad and when accessing icloud on my mac book

    It seems that my green work calendar is now purple as well.
    In the past work was a light green and personal was a slightly different shade of green.  Now it is purple, not my favorite color but it is distinct.  It would be nice to pick you own colors
    I am an ical user,  rarely do I sign in using icloud via the net however this is how all my devices are linked
    This happened a while back and then reverted, if Apple would just have some notices of this at least we would know there is nothing wrong.  I am getting concerned that my data is not safe !

  • HT2513 my iCal calendar that I created with the color green keeps changing to purple.  no matter how many times I change it to green, it turns it back to purple.  Of course this only happens with iCloud and not "from my Mac".  Any ideas?

    my iCal calendar that I created with the color green keeps changing to purple.  no matter how many times I change it to green, it turns it back to purple.  Of course this only happens with iCloud and not "from my Mac".  Any ideas on how to correct this?  This seems like a trivial error, but it's super annoying.

    I called Apple and they said that they know about this problem.  It's a problem with iCloud which their Engineers know about.  (there was a new iCloud release, hence...)  No ETA for a fix yet.  I asked that this be escalated so Engineering doesn't put it at the bottom of their fix list.  I talked to a Senior Advisor and mentioned to them to have QA check their regression tests as this has happened before to me (the problem just didn't take this long to resolve).  I like to use green too for important stuff, so I've resorted to creating a new calendar using the normal calendar green for events going forward.  They could have picked another color besides green to have this problem with and I wouldn't have been so upset.  ;-)
