Please note that the Date and Time Format changes within the macOS System Preferences are only possible with macOS Monterey or with earlier macOS versions. Starting with macOS Ventura this is no longer possible. When using macOS Ventura or higher, please consider using the following Terminal commands to adjust the Date and Time formats: Date: defaults write -g AppleICUDateFormatStrings -dict 4 "ddMMyyyy" Time: defaults write -g AppleICUTimeFormatStrings -dict 4 "HHmm" Adjust the format part according to your needs and restart Just Control. |

Changing the format of these Calendar Event Variables is effortless. To make this as flexible as possible, we are using the default system settings for that. To change that, open the custom format settings for “Dates” and “Times”, which can be found here:
Open the macOS System Settings and select “General”.

Select “Language & Region”.

Switch to the “Advanced” Settings.
