Yep, I figured out why - the US settings allow the AM/PM to be shown. The UK settings do not allow it even if you make a custom clock under the "International" control panel.

But to avoid all that, I just downloaded MenuCalendarClock for OS X - http://www.objectpark.net/mcc.html

Customized it to the way I want, and everything is sweet now.

Ahh, thanks for clearing that up Radish. Why is everything always stacked in the damn Yank's favour?

Meh, I can live without the AM/PM anyway.

The UK makes up maybe 2% of the Mac market, so why should Apple care about that?

OK, that was meant as a joke, based on the reasoning that many people give for Apple having fewer viruses/games/whatever. :laugh:

Oh, and a question for anyone who might be able to help.

Recently, I installed all my old fonts from my PC onto my Mac, and ever since iTunes has looked like this:

Hebrew. I disabled all my hebrew fonts, but the problem persists. Anyone know how to fix the problem?

Thanks. :)

    • Microsoft now allows you to tweak Visual Studio to new extremes

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft now allows you to tweak Visual Studio to new extremes by Usama Jawad Visual Studio 2026 recently netted a powerful feature that finally allows developers to review Git Pull Requests (PRs) directly in the integrated development environment (IDE), without needing to switch to the browser. However, that's not all that Microsoft introduced in the latest version, as it also offered a useful way to customize the IDE to their heart's content. Although Visual Studio 2026 already provides lots of stock themes based on Fluent Design principles, Microsoft understands that people still want to customize them further according to their preferences. The IDE now offers a new configuration page for themes under Tools > Options > Environment > Visual Experience > Theme colors. This allows you to set hex color codes for accent colors, hover states, and more, and apply them without requiring a restart. The Redmond tech giant further says that: Microsoft is also offering granular color tokens that allow you to customize various UX elements like the tab header without impacting the rest of the shell chrome. Your themes are also stored in JSON format in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\18.0_xxxxxxxx\ColorThemes, which basically enables you to share it with others or override existing themes. This is a major improvement in terms of the user experience powering these customization capabilities. This is because extensions were required to replace the theme, and it was not very easy to make minor adjustments. This theme configuration UX solves this problem and is available in Visual Studio 2026 version 18.7, available here.

      It's interesting to hear that AI growth is not investor driven.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By OblivionSHO · Posted

      A few weeks ago, I had this same exact issue. Unfortunately, I didn't think of disabling the Secure Boot option in BIOS. I updated my BIOS to the latest version for my MB and it resolved the issue.
    • USB Port Optimization for best locations for devices

      By +Eternal Tempest · Posted

      I have a partial answer, when I used a multi-port usb hub I had degraded speed performance with 3 large external hard drives connected (all having their own power supply). I managed to snag a nice (yet older) USB3 based wavelink docking station cheap / used that has x6 usb 3 ports and almost doubled the speed of the external hard drives transfer rate. This looks to be a slightly upgraded model -https://ebay.io/m/LZtjTy
