How can I separate an occurrence from a series?

I need to reassign the color of an occurrence that is part of a series. How do I do that without creating a new occurrence or changing the color of the series?

Simply put, you can't. When I attempt to change the color/category of an occurrence, I get a pop-up message advising, "You can only change categories by opening the series."

This leaves you with two choices:

(1) Establish one color/category for the series and leave it. OR
(2) Change the color/category prior to each event, but this will involve sending out updates to each participant, which can grow wearisome, especially to those participants who already receive too much email.
