To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to change this. New calendar days start at midnight. That's pretty much the way the world works.


There are calendar apps that will let you set your "work day". I don't know any off the top of my head but, I'm sure, out of the thousands of calendar apps available, some will meet your needs. They will all pull from the same database so you needn't worry about having to re-enter information.


Best of luck.

Thanks Meg, that's what I thought. Actually, I have Week Cal installed and it supports the configuration of the start hour of the day and I just wondered if I could do the same with Apple Calendar and on a Mac.


I'd just like to stick to Apple software as much as possible. I've been using Macs since 1989. When I was younger (and even more foolish), I used to have lots of third party software which worked often times well, but after upgrading the operating system all of them didn't work so well any more or didn't work at all. I learned the hard way to respect the KISS principle (Keep It Simple, Simpleton): the fewer software vendors I have the less I have trouble. Though, I must admit that with iOS I have had much less problems with third party software than I used to have or have with Mac.
