Today's highlight color

On my MacBook Pro when I hit "Today" (top left of ical screen) the corresponding date has no highlight color. Yes, I have the screen very bright, but I cannot find where to set the highlight color to highlight today's date. On my mini with cinema display it highlights just fine. Thanks!

Printfast,
You may want to try a different color profile in System Preferences...>Displays>Color>Display Profile: Uncheck "Show profiles for this display only," and choose a different profile, or you can also use the "Calibrate..." selection to create a user specific profile tailored for your screen.

Changing the Today highlight color

I was wondering if there is a way to change that color. Today is highlighted with a very faint blue, and for a person with bad color blindness it's very difficult to see and tell apart from the rest of the white boxes of the dates around. So i can't easily and quickly zoom in on the Today box. Anyone has any ideas?
I wish Apple had a little more consideration for the color blind people,

Mac needs to improve colors everywhere. In iCal if you add a calendar and, for example, label it red: unless it is the highlighted day, the red is a crummy dulled down red. Same with all of the other colors. The result is a calendar full of dull colors that are not helpful. Also the folders in mail and itunes must have the ability to color code. And why are there only a few colors to available to label folders on the desktop all of which are really distasteful? Basically the same choices since OS 7. I expect more from Mac on this.

Can I change highlight color for "today?"

I have trouble telling the difference bewteen the shades of blue in the monthly calendar and the "Today" box. The shades are so close to each other it's hard to quickly find today's date.
Is there a way to change the highlight color to something that contasts more with the light blue?

I'm afraid not, but other posters have suggested that if you have the display's contrast set too high it's difficult to see the highlighting, so you could try reducing that and see if it helps.

Highlighter colors look muddy when printed from Acrobat 8, X, and Reader XI to Xerox WC7775, 7665

Highlighter colors look muddy when printed to Xerox WC7775, 7665(applies to Acrobat 8 Std, Acrobat X Std, Reader XI). I tried the latest PS and PCL6 drivers from xerox.com. How can I troubleshoot / fix this so highlighter colors look bright when printed?
When printing highlighted text from other applications (like Word) from the same computers to the same printers, the highlighter color is bright. Users print PDFs for distribution to clients so they would like the printed documents to look good.
Thanks

I have tried the WCS sRGB, scRGB and ICC U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 color profiles. sRGB and scRGB are very slightly brighter than the default and SWOP but still much more muddy than the bright yellow from a Word document. I just started digging in to this today so any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a way to change the highlight color for buttons?

I swear, iDVD has got to be the most counter-intuitive program Apple has made in recent memory. I'm a huge Apple fan but this program makes me want to throw my computer at the freaking wall.
All I want to do is change the ugly yellow highlight color of the buttons (which appears when you select them) in the DVD menu. I'm making a wedding video, and the DVD menu is all silver, gray, black and white, so the yellow color that it defaults to looks hideous.
Any help is appreciated!

Good day Glenn,
You may want to consider upgrading from Acrobat 9.5 Standard to Acrobat X Pro. Acrobat X Professional has the redaction tool which is really easy to use.
You could also accomplish the workflow you described in your question. If you right-click the tool-bar, and enable the Properties Bar, you can change the color of your highlighter tool to black. Then you can 'highlight' the text you would like to eliminate. After you're done, print the document to the Adobe PDF printer with 'Document and Markup' selected under the 'Comments and Forms' drop-down menu to 'refry' your PDF.
Hope this helps!
Kind regards,

How can I change the highlight color of grid view folders in the dock?

Using OSX 10.10 Yosemite, the highlight color for a folder in Grid view is barely noticeable.
Can you spot the highlighted icon below?
I've grown accustom to clicking the applications folder in the doc then typing a few letters to get me close to the app I want- now it takes an extra few seconds for me to visually find the icon that got highlighted.
Is there a way to change the highlight color here?

I would open up the grid spacing slightly so everything does not run together. In System Preferences > General, try setting Highlight color: Red. This won't change the grey selection background around the icon, but it will turn the background behind the icon text to red. That stands out. However, the collateral effect is that text you select in this editor, and other OS X applications, will now have a red background too. Changing colors will require a killall Finder in the Terminal. Actually set mine to #ffff00 which is a vivid yellow, which is more practical when selecting text in a document.

How do I change the highlight color of my PDF file?

On my PDF files, I'm able to highlight text, but cannot figure out how to change the color of the highlight. I've got Adobe Reader, and also paid to upgrade - but honestly, I'm not sure which program I have. This is the most confusing application I've ever used!

Hey,
You are most welcome
Yes, you can change existing highlight color also.
For this, go to 'Comment List' on the right hand side and select any one comment.
Now, press 'cmd+A' to select all the comments in the list and then 'control click' to choose 'Properties' from the pop down.
Choose highlight color as desired from 'Highlight Properties' dialog box.
Please check and let me know.
Regards,
Anubha

How do I change the highlight color of forms?

I'm using Acrobat Pro X.
I need the form highlights to be transparent when another user opens the pdf, views and fills individual forms out.
Trying to keep this very simple for end user. I don't want to give the user instruction on how to go to preferences and change highlight color.
Please help!
Thanks!

Wow! I was trying too hard I guess. Will this bypass the preferences set
on another users computer?
Thanks,

How do I change the highlight color?

When I'm working on my document in Pages, I often do a Search (command-F) to quickly find a word or phrase that appears somewhere else in the document. It works great, but it highlights the word/phrase in light gray, which I have trouble seeing. Is there a way to change the highlight color to yellow, or any other color, making the word/phrase easier to see?

You can find it under the Pages menu > Provide Pages Feedback. That takes you to the same page as this link.

10.4.5: why are my highlight colors wrong?

no matter what highlight color i choose in the Appearance prefs pane, i get a different color - or, more accurately, a very different shade of the same color - in some places. when i select text in a text-editing app (or right here in Safari), for example, i get the highlight color i chose in the Appearance prefs pane, but if, say, i choose any shade of pure yellow for my highlight color in the prefs pane, my messages in Mail.app are highlighted in this positively repugnant bile green. if i choose a pale purple highlight color, messages in Mail.app are highlighted in a deep purple. and so on.
why is this? if i wanted disobedient computers, i'd run Windows boxes.
thanks.

pray, good van malsen, exactly whom do you imagine me to have insulted, and when and how?
methinks thine imagination doth run amok.
i can appreciate, however, that no one has an answer to either of the questions i posted a week or two ago. but i do think it sad that we're cut loose to drift around out here on our own.
i used to see Apple Computer as an ally, a compatriot in the fight against conformity, mediocrity, the mindless acceptance and consumption of whatever user-hateful garbage rolled out of Redmond. i saw Apple Computer, and the Macintosh, as a cause, and one well worthy of my staunchest support.
it's different now though. the warmth, the fun and the color are gone (well, unless your idea of "colorful" is light blue), replaced with cold, gray (and light blue) efficiency and an increasing indifference toward the needs and desires of users. and one attempt to use .mac's sync function is all it takes to call into question the notion of efficiency as well.
oh, i don't have the energy for this. i'm just heartbroken at the death of the soul of Apple Computer.

Adobe Reader 9.0 - Disable Forms Highlight color show border hover color for fields for all user a

Hello.
I am installing Adobe Reader 9.0 onto a new windows xp corporate build for my company. We would like to have the Forms Preference "Highlight Color" Show border Hover Color for Fields checkbox unchecked by default for any user that logs onto the workstation. (All new WinXP profiles, and if possible, any existing profiles) Is there a registry entry that can be changed to ensure that this option is unchecked by default on our WinXP build?
Thank you.

bumping thread...
I have downloaded the Adobe Reader 9.0 Custom Wizard install creator tool, but it still appears that I will need to know what registry key to change/import into the installer for this preference to be disabled by default for all users of the workstation that Adobe Reader 9.x is installed onto.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Changing the highlight color of a JMenuBar

I'm trying to change the highlight color of a JMenuBar. I�m using the METAL lookandfeel which by default highlights with a purple color. I would also like to know how its done on a JTable, I assume it is quite similar.

UIDefaults uid = new com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel().getDefaults();</code>
Note that this will print the default properties for the Windows Look&Feel, not the Metal Look&Feel.
