Why is iCal changing the color of my calendars to purple even after trying to change it back to my original color?

iCal is changing the color of my calendars to purple on all my devices even after trying to change it back to the original color. Tried turning them off, same thing.

I, too, had this problem.  This is how I fixed it:
Select the calendar that changes color and export the calendar to desktop.
Delete the calendar from ical.
Create new calendar in Ical and name it to your specifications
Go to desk top and choose the calendar you moved and choose to open with Ical.  This should import it back to ical.
Go into settings in ical and choose that calendar as your default calendar.
It sounds complicated but is actually easy to do. I hope this helps.

  • I cannot change the default application program. It remains unchanged after attemting to change it.

    I wanted to change the default application proram to view .jpg files to Windows photo viewer. The default program is HP Photo Smart. I went to Tools Options, went to the Applications bar, and found the file type, attempted to change the program, but it did not change it to my selected Windows Photo Viewer. I closed Firefox and restarted it, but it did the same thing, even after logging out.

    I just successfully changed on my .docx to open into Pages. I went the same route that you mentioned... Right click---> Get Info---> Open With and changed it to Pages. When I clicked Change All, a dialog came up asking me if I am sure that I want to change all of my .docx to open in Pages. I click accept and tested it. Now my .docx open in Pages.
    So my question is, is your issue just applying to .ai files? Or is affecting other files, such as .docx? If it's just affecting .ai files, then there maybe an underlying reason for that. And it may not be able to be changed.
    Just a thought.

  • We have an older IMac (preIcloud) and just purchased a new Macbook Air. Our Iphones are set-up to synch with the IMAC and my calendars on the IMac & the phone look the same. But when I open ICal on the MacBook Air my calendar is missing items? Help..

    Are you wanting to import iCal to the MacBook Air. Since iCloud doesn't work with 10.6 OSX you probably don't have any data in iCloud yet?

  • Please i need help very urgent !!! after deleting my exchange account because the company changed the password , I lost 150 200 contacts and i need to get them back very soon ! please help

    Please i need help very urgent !!! after deleting my exchange account because the company changed the password , I lost 150 200 contacts and i need to get them back very soon !  i never backed up on itunes ..please help

    No. The contacts are "owned" by the Exchange server.
    The Exchange server is owned by the company.
    Everything on the Exchange server is owned by the company.
    If you quit or were terminated, and your access to the system has been revoked, then there is nothing you and do at this point. Once you deleted the account from your phone, all of the associated data was deleted.
    NEVER store personal information on company systems.

  • I have iCloud on MY PC and when I try to download attachments it is changing the file name to messagepart. What can i do to change this?

    I have iCloud on MY PC and when I try to download attachments it is changing the file name to messagepart. What can i do to change this?

    I don't think this is an iCloud issue- it is the latest release of Safari. Firefox attachments are still correctly downloaded.
    This needs some interest from Apple techs.

    How do I delete my user ID photo, taken with the camera in the MacBook Pro (when you first buy and set up the computer...).  The photo keeps appearing randomly, even after I've changed it to a "better picture".  I can't get the change to "stick".  Anyone else having trouble with this?  Thanks!

  • How to change the name of my calendar

    When I send an Invitation from my iPhone calendar, the receipient sees the wrong Name. How can I change the name of my calendar??

    I think I solved it..
    In my case, first invites were sent from a wrong email.. Then, the my email was correct, but it said the creator of the event was someone else..
    To solve it I logged to appleid.apple.com and checked my valid emails.. There were wrong emails associated with my account. This didn't solve my problem.
    My apple ID is @gmail.com and I changed it for another account I have that is @yahoo.com
    Then I deleted my iCloud account on my iPhone (keeping all my info), and then logged again with my new apple ID,and merged.
    Somehow this updated my info, and when I send an invite the info is correct! 
    Hope it works for you too!

  • WHAT THE HECK! eversince I updated my itunes... My laptop keeps on crashing, i try to change the volume on itunes and it doesnt even move, and I quit Itunes but apparently it won't ever quit... I lost all my  paper work cuz it crashed 4 times this week.

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall for the network problem.
    Also for the original problem try the following if Ana's suggestions does not work
    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I think it is not necessary to modify the Calendar button size.
    The Calendar button actual size is 20X20.
    But the gif file which is used by Calendar button is not filled by icon.
    It seems that the height is smaller than the other buttons.

    I changed my apple ID, but it won't let me change the ID for icloud on my iPhone. How do I change it?

    You have to go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, then sign back in with your updated credentials.  This deletes the account and your synced data from your phone, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account and not changing to a different account, your data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in.

  • Why does the pop up window for a printable coupon only appears briefly (in the upper left corner) and then disappear, even after putting the web site into the Tools,Options,Content,Pop-Up Exceptions?

    I am at http://www.closys.com/samples_&_coupons/get_a_coupon.html and the pop up window for a printable coupon only appears briefly (in the upper left corner) and then disappears, even after putting the web site into the Tools,Options,Content,Pop-Up Exceptions. What gives and how can it be fixed. I have a time limit.
    Thanks for your solution.

    Mha007:
    Sorry, but I have already tried this too and verified that the web addresses are listed as Allow, rather than Block. After restart there was no difference, I still get the disappearing pop-up windows.
    Thanks for offering suggestions though.
    Have you heard of any issues like this occurring based on the number of tabs that are open in Firefox?
    Just a thought, even though I have not heard of this as an issue before. I keep about 80 tabs open regularly, because of research that I am always conducting (I am a blogger, a writer/author, a technophile-especially Green Tech.,), email, work, etc.?
    I do have a check in the box for Firefox to let me know if the number of open tabs is causing slow down or other issues.
    Thanks for any help.
