Multiple colors in on calendar

I am using a macbook pro with latest Yosemite update.
I work 24-hour shifts so I would like to add multiple colors to one calendar. For example I have a calendar work and within this calendar I want to have different colors for lets say early shift/late shift/night shift. I can't find that option, this was possible within outlook and gmail calendar.
All advice is welcome.

On mine the ones that show on a coloured background are all-day events, the ones with dots and just timed events.

Is there a way to change the color of your calendars in the calendar app when it has been synced with multiple calendars?

I have just purchased an iPad 2 and I have gotten it setup to sync with my multiple calendars on Google Calendar. But the colors I have chosen for displaying my calendars in Google Calendar are not being used when the info comes over to the iPad. The iPad is choosing it's own colors for each calendar. Is there a way to customize this so I know who's calendar I am looking at by color shown? Thanks!

Size is never included in a style for a shape.
If you want to apply the resizing to all shapes, you can use the small flyout menu after applying the resizing to one shape, and choose Apply to all items of this type.

Are multiple colors possible on a published calendar?

Hi, on my desktop I easily see multiple colors, with each on for a different calendar. we have a published calendar for a group, that would be great if it were possible either to publish both with the same URL, or at least allow color changes for some of the items on the calendar again with just one url. Is this possible in iCal?
Thanks.

Wayne,
Unfortunately, published calendars are not capable of displaying individual calendar colors.
Consider providing iCal Feedback.

How do I change the color of a calendar? It keeps changing back to the wrong color.

I have tried to change the color of the calendar on iCloud, on the iPad, on the Mac desktop, and on the iPhone. It will not change as per the instructions in the help guide. It changes for about 1 second, then reverts back to a color I never chose. How can I get it to accept my person preference?

Please just have a look in the Support Communites and you will find multiple threads discussing the exact same issue. I would assume that it is a bug and Apple will solve this issue with an upcoming software update.

Is there a way to transform multiple colors?

I have a project where I've been asked to allow a user to choose between multple color themes of a character. This object is complex in that it has multiple colors and that each color needs to change differently based on the theme's color scheme.
Is there a way to take a movieclip with multiple colors and apply process to it that will detect different colors and transform them accordingly without taking each individual color, making a movie clip from it, then modifying the movieclip's colors? Each character has a pretty limited color pallette, so this process would only have to find and then change maybe 3 or 4 colors. But the character in question is hand animated and has a LOT of frames, so I'm hoping there's a chance that I can handle this programmatically rather than doing it all by hand with a few hundred extra movieclips to make color changes to. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi, and thanks for the help.
This is the 1st time I've looked at the palletteMap method. I see in the documentation:
paletteMap(sourceBitmapData:BitmapData, sourceRect:Rectangle, destPoint:Point, redArray:Array = null, greenArray:Array = null, blueArray:Array = null, alphaArray:Array = null):void
Parameters:
sourceBitmapData:BitmapData — The input bitmap image to use. The source image can be a different BitmapData object, or it can refer to the current BitmapData instance.
sourceRect:Rectangle — A rectangle that defines the area of the source image to use as input.
destPoint:Point — The point within the destination image (the current BitmapData object) that corresponds to the upper-left corner of the source rectangle.
redArray:Array (default = null) — If redArray is not null, red = redArray[source red value] else red = source rect value.
greenArray:Array (default = null) — If greenArray is not null, green = greenArray[source green value] else green = source green value.
blueArray:Array (default = null) — If blueArray is not null, blue = blueArray[source blue value] else blue = source blue value.
alphaArray:Array (default = null) — If alphaArray is not null, alpha = alphaArray[source alpha value] else alpha = source alpha value.
I comprehend the 1st 4 parameters, but the color and alpha arrays have got me confused. How would I use these to, for instance find all the pure blue pixels in a bitmap (0x000000FF) and then change those pixels' colors to some other color, then find all the pure red pixels (0x00FF0000) and change them to yet another color? Fortunately I don't have to deal with alpha with this current delimma . . .
One other question before I look into this method as a solution, is it possible to programmatically convert vector-based artwork into a bitmap to use this colorMatrix feature? All the artwork I need to change colors on is hand drawn animation using the native Flash drawing tools. Thanks again for any additional help!

Ical calendar colors changing birthday calendar color

Okay, I've been using iCal for well perhaps ever ever since it started shipping in the OS. I'd like to be able to change the colors codes of calendars on an iPad 2 running the app. So far haven't found a place to do that. Suspecting it might be a mobileme thing. I've even tried that, nope no good. Seems like the iCal app on the iPad pulls colors from somewhere as some match others don't. I looking for a consistent look for all calendars across different devices, i.e. Ipad/iPhone/Laptop desktop version of iCal. Going to repost this same question on the iCal discussion group. Should I get a response I'll repost it here.
Thanks,

Mikael,
I also used to sync to my Palm handheld. I used The Missing Sync. I still had the problem of colors changing. But, they just changed. The colors on my iPod touch calendar don't relate at all to the colors in iCal.
Since it occasionally happened with my Palm, I don't mind having to adjust the calendars. What I don't like is that there is no way, on the iPod, to change the colors. And a few of the frequently-used calendars have ended up with the same color on my touch.

I expect that will come with time.

How can I sync Iphone to a PC calendar then have multiple users share that calendar? Is there an application that does that?

How can I sync Iphone to a PC calendar then have multiple users share that calendar? Is there an application that does that?

If it is actually an exchange calendar, and it's not linked to a specific user, it should be possible to simply add the exchange account to each device in question and have that exchange account only sync the calendar. Then every user has access to the same calendar and can add/edit entries to the calendar as needed.
The same would apply if it were a Google calendar added via Exchange.
If the calendar is not actually on Exchange, but rather added from an outside source, it will depend on that outside source where the calendar originates.

Sync Multiple Outlook contact and calendar folders

We have multiple Outlook contact and calendar folders in Outlook (Work and Personal). Is it possible to sync multiple folders to the iPhone?

The problem is excactly what I just found out while trying to sync my new N97, which I also bought for the reason, it was said to be able to sync my outlook contacts (etc.). But sorry, just syncing one folder nearly equals to it cannot sync at all. I am really upset, to see the lack of this function to such a sophisticated mobile and software. (The mobile cannot do nothing about it, it is a problem of PC Suite. But the mobile worth only so much, as it is supported by the software!)
To add to blutarskys request, it is not only used in business, that people have folders in Outlook contacts. Hello, it is the most convenient way, to organize groups of contacts, like family, friends, colleagues, support, etc. pp. Myriads of people use that function as it is one of the most basic functions.
So please Nokia, launch this feature up asap. It is deeply requested.
Without, N97 is of no use for me. I still cannot believe, it is not possible. I still just hope someone will state, that we just overlooked it.
Kind regards.
PS: In case you wonder:
Nokia PC Suite Version 7.1.30.9

How can I create a new color in the calendar?

Good day,
I wanted the to create a new color in the default calendar from Apple, but I do not know how that goes.
Perhaps someone can explain to me how this works.
I would be very grateful for any advice.

If you mean you want to change a color of a calendar category or create a new one, you cannot do that, what is pre-loaded is what you get and cannot be edited.

Thanks.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to color coding of calendar in SharePoint 2010
To get this done efficiently, SharePoint’s built-in calendar overlays are the way to go.
You can follow the steps as below:
Customize category column in the calendar list
Create views filtered by category column
Create blank view where the category filters for NULL value
Add the calendar overlays
For more information, you can refer to:

In addition, you can use code to achieve what you want. Please refer to:

Do I need Open Directory for multiple email addresses for Calendar users?

Hey all,
I have a single mac mini which I use simply as a calendar server for +/- 20 users. One day I might use Profile Manager to manage their iOS devices too. On the initial installation, we enabled Open Directory, although I'm not sure that it's required, and we have no plans re using it to manage network logins etc aside from existing calendaring.
I'm working through a migration from a Lion Server.app install to Mavericks, and due to some data corruption issues, we'll probably just rebuild the server and reimport the users calendars.
On my existing Lion Server installation, I can still use workgroup manager to assign multiple email addresses to calendar users, so that when a user invites another user to a calendar event using any of their email addresses (we have several variations), the invitation still gets pushed to the correct calendar user.
On Mavericks, without installing Open Directory, it seems I can't do this (I've downloaded Workgroup Manager for Mavericks, but it obviously can't connect to a local open directory). If Open Directory is optional, I'd rather not install it, to avoid overhead and complexity, but I still need a way to manage these multiple email addresses (aliases doesn't cut it).
Any ideas / suggestions?
Thanks,
D

For Calendar server to send actual email invitations to an attendee, two things must happen:
First, you need to configure Server.app > Calendar > Enable invitations by email. Enabling that will bring up a wizard dialog that will step you through the IMAP and SMTP account settings. The default values in that wizard will tell Calendar server to use the local Mail server (which you then would have to configure to use the appropriate SMTP relay, etc.). Or you can change the wizard settings to refer to an external IMAP and SMTP server. It is wise to use a dedicated IMAP account for Calendar server's use -- don't go using someone's personal IMAP account because there might be some "undesirable interactions", let's say. If you need help configuring this for, say, a Gmail account, I can help with that.
Second, the email address for the attendee must *not* be known to Calendar server, i.e. it should *not* be in the Directory. As you probably found out, if Calendar server sees that the attendee has an email address that is in the Directory, the attendee is considered to be "local" and the invitation will be delivered directly to the attendee's calendar client. If you simply leave those other email variations out of the Directory, Calendar server will consider that attendee "remote" and will send an actual email with a special attachment that calendar clients can understand.
Hope that helps.

I have more than 1 calendar on Iphone how to change color of the calendars.

I have more than 1 calendar on my iphone, but 2 of them have the same color when viewing on the list. But both belong to 2 separate individuals. Is there some way of chaning the default color of each calendar?

I believe that if you set up your Google calendars using CalDAV rather than exchange the colors you select in your Google calendar preferences will sync to your phone. To set up your calendars using CalDAV, see http://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=151674, then go to your gmail exchange account and turn calendar syncing to off.

How to change the color of a calendar entry

How do you change the color of a calendar entry?

Hi Skaytn,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Are you referring to the Calendar app on your computer, or do you have an iCloud account? The articles below will explain how to change calendar names and colors. Whatever calendar you place an entry in will determine what it's color will be.
Mac Basics: Calendar keeps your appointments
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5978
Create new calendars
By default, OS X includes two calendars in the Calendar app – Work and Home. If you want to create a new calendar, choose New Calendar from the File menu. Type a name for your calendar in the text field. For example, if you have kids, you might want to create a separate calendar for each one to track their schedules. You can see and control how your calendars appear by clicking the Calendars button.
To change the color or name of a calendar, select it from the calendars list, then choose Edit > Get Info. To remove a calendar and all of its events, right-click or Control-click the calendar's name, then select Delete from the shortcut menu that appears.

TS3999 When using iCloud Calendar, I am unable to change the color of my work calendar. I have successfully followed the instructions to reset the colors of other calendars as desired. However, this one calendar always defaults to purple. Help!

When using iCloud Calendar, I am unable to change the color of my work calendar. I have successfully followed the instructions to reset the colors of other calendars as desired. However, this one calendar always defaults to purple. Help!

File>New Calendar to create a new calendar (Groups are for grouping calendars and I should ignore them). When you've created the calendar, control-click on it in the sidebar and choose 'Get Info' There you can select a colour. You can have as many calendars as you like. When you create a new event you can select the calendar it belongs to, and hence the colour it has.
