Possible to change default alarm from "Message with Sound" to "Email"?

I was wondering if there is a way to change the default alarm when creating an event in iCal, from "Message with sound" to "Email". The option is not available in preferences, and I was just hoping that there might be a way to change the default, using Terminal, and if not, perhaps there is another way. If anyone knows of a way to accomplish this, I’d sure appreciate it.
Thanks very much for your help.

Your not alone - I'm also looking for a solution to this problem.

  • ICal default alert always Message with Sound? (10.7.3)

    Please, can I have an option to change this setting? If I set the preferences to generate an alert with new events, it always has 2 alerts, one message and one sound (I think it is a recording of one of the mechanical parts of a MBP breaking ). Is that normal behaviour. I see it independent of the backend (local calendar, Exchange, Google, you name it.) Message is fine, but I don't want (any) sound.

    I have the same problem, but I'm not using MobileMe. When I create an event in my iPhone4 (IOS4.1) with an alert, I want this event to show up in iCal with an alert of "Message with sound" after syncing with iTunes. Otherwise I have to check every new event that I created on my iPhone again on my Mac to change the alert type. Probably some people want it otherwise and would rather have the "Message" (without sound) type of alert, so the best thing would be to have the choice between sound or no sound on the iPhone when entering a new event with an alert.

  • Message with sound for events created on iPhone

    For the past 2 years whenever I created an event in the calendar on my iPhone 3G (iOS 3.1.3) with an alert, this would sync over MobileMe and create an event in iCal with an alert of "Message with sound".
    Suddenly last week this behavior changed to creating iCal alerts of "Message" (no sound).
    I am not using the MobileMe calendar beta, just same old iPhone, MobileMe sync, iCal as always. I do not have a default alarm set for iCal (never have).
    Anyone know how I can change this back to "Message with sound"?

    They haven't been checked as Solved, it's an option for you to choose one if the answer has solved your problem. You can mark one answer as Solved, and two as helpful. Only you, as the originator of the topic, can see these buttons.
    Sorry for the goofed answer. Most people are looking to set the margins and I looked over that you were interested in the tabs.
    To save tabs in fixed positions that will appear with every new document, you must modify the default template. You can't open the template from the desktop. If you do, it will open as a standard document. You must open it from the Open dialogue box from within Word. With Word in the foreground, press Command+O and navigate to:
    /Users/your_account/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Office/User Templates/
    Open the file Normal.dotm
    Set your tabs and save the file. Close the template. All new documents will now open with those preset tabs.

  • Is it possible to change the costing from moving average to standard??

    hey all,
    i wana know is it possible to change the costing from moving average to standard or vice-versa in the item master??
    cheers

    Hi Satish
    Please look at the documentation from SAP for using this function. I just looked on my drive and can't find the document I used to have for this.
    Just setting quantities to zero will not work as all open P/O, S/O, etc must also be closed before you can run the Inventory Valuation Method function. This is all detailed in the document.
    I have done this successfully before for a client with over 4000 items, so I have been through the process. Please let me know if you need assistance.
    Kind regards

  • How to change default alarm sound for events

    I remember initially when setting up ical, it gave an option to set a default sound for messages. I want to change the sound, but cannot find the option to do so. currently when creating a nerw event, the message with sound option shows up with the default sound (Basso) that I selected initially. And I have to change it manually every time a new event is created. Is there a way to change the default sound?

    Settings > Sounds > Calendar. Maybe it was inaudible because yoursound was not turned up.

  • Is it possible to change application state from a component?

    I was wondering if it is possible to change application state from within a custom component and if so, what would the syntax be if I had an application named "zzz" and I wanted to change the app state from "state1" to "state2" from my component?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    you always have a static class Application.
    Application.application will be the root component. After that you can change it state.
    Application.application.currentState = "state2";
    But it's not the best way to change states. It's better to dispatch events from components and change states in listeners.

  • Is it possible to export a file from Organizer with the list of all the images in an album?

    Is it possible to export a file from Organizer with a list of all the images in a certain album? In filling one of my albums I did not save my edited images to the same file... they are spread out a bit.... Now I want them to make a book with them (outside of Elements).

    As far as I know, Elements does not have the ability to create lists.
    The solution to your problem of making a book outside of Elements is to place all the desired photos in an Album and then select File->Export->As New Files which gives you the ability to make a copy of every photo in the album in a new folder, from which you would create your photobook.

    You have now exceeded your iCloud storage, including an additional amount provided to allow you to continue receiving email. As a result, you will not be able to send or receive new email messages with your iCloud email address until you free up storage space or buy more storage. I have 20GB remaining.  WHat is the issue here?

    Today I received the same message but have 4.6gb available from a total of 5.0gb. I also received the same message when i first set up my icloud account and icloud was virtually empty. Unfortunately the only way i can see to contact apple is to pay for a telephone call. If anyone knows what is going on i would appreciate knowing.

  • ICal - google calendar no SMS or Message with sound

    Hello,
    few weeks ago I found that I could not add "Message with sound" alert to my iCal's Google calendar which brings me to no SMS alerts.
    Is it anything wrong with my iCal, Google calendars (I can add Message with sound to iCloud calendars) or it is something Apple/Google recently changed?
    If I add Message with sound alert using iCal - it automatically disappears. However, if I add SMS alert on Google side I have SMS alerts even if it does not reflect anyhow on the corresponding iCal entry.

    There is a big discussion on this topic on the google calendar forum: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=7f08411ae09ca8da&hl=en
    As I wrote there:
    I'm suffering the same, but I have some more information about it.  I have multiple delegates, so I have had the "good fortune" to be able to have some of them go bad and still have others to experiment with. 
    The ones that have gone bad are those where I made a change in iCal and then tried to refresh. 
    When I made changes on my google calendars I was still able to refresh in iCal and have the change show up.  But as soon as I made a change in iCal, the refresh gave that error message.
    Also, I just downloaded the newest OS (OS 5) for my iPod touch (gen. 3).  That was yesterday afternoon.. and yesterday evening is when I first noticed this problem.  I can't imagine it's simply coincidence.
    I just discovered one more thing.  Even the calendars that don't work both ways continue to work one way; changes made on Google Calendar continue to show up in iCal, even though the error message shows up that it can't contact the server or has the wrong address.  It's almost like the relationship has turned into "subscriptions" rather than "delegates".
    I have restarted my iMac and repaired permissions with no success.
