eh.. crazy talk.. in ical just right click on the calendar title and 'get info' then change the colour (color) to what ever you like.. on next sync the iphone will get the change too! -Zed --- macosx.miraworld.tv
Where exactly are you clicking to 'get info'
Neither hint works for me. The color order when adding calendars sync-by-sync is another one (too lazy to go through all colors) and changing colors has no effect. Too bad, I really have those colors memorized.. --- this is not the sig you`re looking for.
Swimboy, This is a very creative way to get around the wrong color deal. Worked for me. I still don't get what kept apple from having these match EXACTLY your ical calendar. Seriously was there nobody over there who thought.. this is gunna annoy people. Anyway if I can offer one add on.. If you only sync one calendar, iphone wont give it a color at all. So you have to start with syncing 2 calendars. Chose whichever one you want to be Red.. and a second one whos first letter in the title comes later in the alphabet. After that just turn off the second one if its not needed or its not the right color and sync again. Now you will only have the Red calendar. Continue by adding calendars one at a time and they will result in this order. Red(the one you started with) Orange Blue Green Purple Repeat
If you sync calendars over-the-air using MobileMe, the original iCal colors (including custom colors) work on the iPhone.
According to this thread, at least one person has managed to make the iCal colours work as expected on the iPod without MobileMe by checking the 'Calendars' box next to 'replace information on this iPhone' before doing a sync.
One possible solution (as yet untested) would be to sign up for a free 60-day MobileMe trial, do the sync and see if the custom colours remain on existing iPhone calendars after the trial has lapsed – worth a try for those not wanting MobileMe.
Another solution here is to work backwards. Just change the color in iCal to match the colors assigned by your iPhone to particular calendars. You might not like the color as much, but at least they'll match.
Would it be doable to write an app that changes iCal calendar colors?
https://cleverspin.weebly.com/blog/apps-like-bluestacks-mac. I was ecstatic to discover that once I enabled MobileMe, and synced my calendars to the cloud, each calendar showed up in its appropriate iCal color. I even have subtle differences in my 'work' calendars (blue for one project, dark blue for another), and these came across exactly as desired. Not a solution for everyone, obviously, but it was a WONDERFUL surprise, obviating the need for much of the manual effort involved in this original hint (hmm… should this be a new hint in itself?)
Re-save calendar colors on mobileme and issue is corrected on iphone
How To Use Multiple Colors Calendar App Mac Free
I found this article: http://weblogs.redeyechicago.com/iphoneblog/2008/07/colors-on-your.html At the bottom in the comments section is the solution: When you sync from your Mac to MobileMe, it does show the correct colors, but the iPhone does not. So, go to MobileMe, and go to each calendar, and pick the 'list of calendar actions' button (it is to the right of the Month drop down at the top of each calendar you select). Select calendar info, and you'll see a screen which shows your calendar name and the correct color. Just click 'ok' to save the color one more time, and it'll show up correct on yoru iphone. One thing to note - when I synced with my Mac it saw this as a conflict between the two, so I had to pick either Mac or MobileMe, even though they both showed the same color. Now my iphone, mobileme, and Mac all have the same colors without have to sync in any particular order. Hope this helps!
