Mac OS X Tip: Set 24-hour format time
I hate times that in the "am/pm" format. It's a big waste of screen space, especially when I am using a 13.3 inch screen. I miss the 24-hour format time, but I didn't find it in Mac.
But finally I've found the way:
- Open System Preferences
- Open International
- Click the Format tab
- Click the Customize button beside "Times"
- Hover your mouse over the hour indicator, and it will show a arrow. Click on the arrow you'll get a drop-down list to choose hour formats.
Here's my snapshot:
So I get my 24-hour format time back, in my iCal, Mail, anywhere.

Thank you for this. I had looked many places, but your post sent me on the right track. I had a hard time figuring out which option to use, though. It turns out choosing "0-23" gives me the proper setting. Thanks again.
