| Once you choose an alarm, additional options will appear under the Alarm category. For example, when you choose Message with Sound, a pop-up menu appears in which you can choose a specific sound. Below that there's a pop-up menu for how many minutes, hours, or days before (or after) the event the message will appear. Click on the pop-up menus and choose your preferences. ADDING A NEW ELEMENT OF FUN TO YOUR CALENDAR TIP One of the coolest things about iCal is that you can subscribe to online calendars and have that information show up on your iCal calendar. For example, I'm a Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan, so every year I subscribe to a free Buc's NFL iCal calendar that adds all of that season's Bucs games (along with who they're playing and where) to my calendar. You'll be amazed at all the cool free calendars that are out there, and subscribing takes just one click. (Apple even has their own library of free iCal calendars you can subscribe to. You can find it online at www.apple.com/macosx/features/ical/library.) |
