24 hr vs 12 hour: how to switch?

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

I have created a content type called "Event" and added a "Date" field to indicate the date and time. I cannot seem to force it to display time options in 12-hour instead of 24-hour view, whether I use a "popup calendar" or "select list" widget.

I have the FullCalendar module installed, and my boss likes how it displays the calendar. I have gone into "Administration » Configuration » Regional and language » Date and Time" and created the exact format I want, and given it a "Types" name ("North America: US" which renders as "April 30, 2012, 5:30 am MDT"). Is there a way to get the popup calendar widget to use a different format? Or do I need a different module/library?

I've attached screenshots in case it's helpful.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a final meeting with the Director tomorrow on this, and desperately need a fix. Thanks in advance!

You'll want to check your settings at

admin/config/regional/date-time

These are the default long, medium, and short formats.

You can add your own formats at:

admin/config/regional/date-time/formats

Then check:

admin/structure/types/manage/event/display > [field] > Format

admin/structure/types/manage/event/fields/[field] > More settings and values > Date Entry

edit: event above is a content type in my case

Thank you!

Thank you, dave! I knew I was missing some minor setting. I may actually have this ready by the deadline now.
