Change Calendar Colors

There are millions of color possibilities one can assign to calendars in iCal/Calendar. iCal/Calendar will not use the color "as is"--it will slightly dim the color for all events except the currently-selected events to help with selection visibility. iCal/Calendar provides several ways to modify calendar colors.

1. Click on the Calendars button at the top-left of the main iCal/Calendar display.

   

2. Scroll to, or click on, the calendar you want to modify.
3. Do one of these three things:
   • Control-Click on the calendar name and from the pop-up menu select Get Info.
   • From the Edit menu select Get-Info.
   • Type Cmd-I.

     

4. On the drop-down display the color setting is immediately to the right of the Name: field. There are six default colors and you can select one of these or click on the Other option to use the standard MacOSX Color selection display to select another option.

   

5. Close the Color selection display when done as it will not close automatically.
