    Calendar is my least used Google app but this video has encouraged me to explore it more. The short-cut functions are fantastic and the summary here a perfect way to discover them. Thanks.

    Your videos have really helped me use the calendar and tasks programs to stay organized and confident, thank you. I can actually follow your instructions. One thing about the shortcuts, I needed to go into settings and enable shortcuts first.

    Thank you for the memory jog! 3:12 A long time ago-in an account I no longer use, I had a 3 week view. I didn’t remember how I had made it visible! Now I can get that back in my main calendar!

    Normally I have the week view on. However It shows all days in the week even if those days has pasted. I learned that in the custom view I can set the calender up, so I see 7 days but ONLY from today and forward. That is a very usefull tip :) Thank you Scott.
    Now I just need to find out how to remove "none working hours". No need to have time in the calender between 02-06 AM.

    Do you mostly use google calendar and apps or outlook and 365?? As always, I find a lot of great techniques and value in your videos. Thank you. Ever think of doing a Series geared towards real estate agents??

    • @Simpletivity
      @Simpletivity  Před 3 měsíci

      Personally, I use mostly Google apps for both my business and personal use. And thank you for the real estate suggestion. I realize I do have a lot of viewers within this industry.
      Is there a particular topic you'd like me to address?

    We have all these amazing tools and Google Calendar can do so many things but yet you cannot change the font color on the Google Calendar app so you can see the words. It’s very hard to see the tiny white letters on a background unless you use super dark colors, which is overwhelming also.

    Does this apply to mac? I tried the command key but I am doing it wrong

    • @Simpletivity
      @Simpletivity  Před 4 měsíci

      Yes, these should all be the same on Mac. However, you may need to enable shortcut commands within your Google Calendar settings. Here's how:
      On your Mac, open Google Calendar.
      In the top right corner, click on Settings (gear icon).
      Look for the section titled "Enable keyboard shortcuts". Make sure it's checked.
