Hi, I am implementing GTD and I am looking for a computer calendar tool. I do not use Outlook so I do not wish to use it only for calendar. Waht you would suggest me? Thanks for your answers.
I noticed after installing this add-in that my email prints differently. There are several GTD tracking codes that now appear after Subject and Date headings. And, consequently the actual email body is printing in a smaller font on our network printer. 1) Is there is a way to print my emails...
Hey Folks, Have been using the GTD add in with my Outlook 2000 for a while and love it. Recently upgraded to Outlook XP. Now my Outlook shuts down very frequently giving me the "outlook has encountered a problem and has to shut down". message. FWIW, it's always in the task module. My...
Does anyone know of an online GTD app with facility for recurring and postdated actions? I want a very simple tool but do need this little detail. Thanks in advance.
My GTD system is managed mainly through folders and NOTEPAD. Sometimes I find it necessary to time and date something. Just found out that hitting F5 in Notepad easily enters a timestamp. This post also has info on making your notepad file into a log where everytime you open it, it enters a...
Maybe this point has been covered elsewhere on the board, but it makes no sense to me why 'sort by name' is not an option in the Palm To Do app. Can anyone recommend a solid third party app that will alpha sort my Next Action lists? I am using an m515 and synching with Outlook using Pocket...
I've been using this more and more. I start a lot of projects by doing some internet research. Google Notebooks allows me to save interesting web findings on Google's servers and access them anywhere I have internet access. I create a separate Google notebook for each area of interest. If I find...
on the other forum list. Sorry about that.
Hi all. As it says, really. My organisation is using Novell Groupwise as its calendaring system. I have used many systems but the fact that Groupwise simply has no concept of an "undated Task" is driving me mad. I am using the Palm Desktop for all calendaring, and GW only for email, but you...
Hi everybody, I have been thinking about why I often forget to check my tickler file. Putting a note on my desk and other reminders to check my tickler didn't work, although the tickler was close by, just a chair swirl away. My desk is just the right size for everything else that I need to work...
Hi, If you're a software developer and you're working on software that claims some influence by GTD, read on... I'm keen to create an agreed-upon xml standard for import & export of our GTD data. This will mean that people will be 1) able to try an app out because they can easily import and...
My Q is great to remote sync outlook calendar, email and tasks. However I can not move an action item from one list category to another. Has anyone solved this problem?
I have a client investigating mind mapping tools for idea capture and collaboration. They have gone through an extensive list of possibles and are now down to Mind Manager (I use this one) and Personal Brain. I am just starting to evaluate the Personal Brain software. If you have used or are...
Has anyone seen or used this? Would it be a way to easily manage your reading files? Or is it an expensive, electronic time waster?
Hello Guys/Gals, I’ve been communicating with Jonathan Ballinger, the developer of nActionr, and he has shown an interest in coding nActionr over to the Blackberry platform but he will need some hardware, so I’m asking you’ll if you have any blackberries lying around in the “blackberry retirement...
Recently I acquired another iPAQ Pocket PC running Mobile 5. I downloaded Microsoft Reader but can't activate the application. I keep getting an error message " ... You have an older version of Pocket PC which does not support Activation. Activation requires Pocket PC 2002 or later ...". I...
My Pocket PC works well with Outlook and the GTD Add-in, except that when Notes come over from my PC they don't get arranged by categories or folders. Is there a way to do this? Thanks. Len, from Denver.
OK - I thought I had my GTD system set up correctly in iCal, just syncing with Treo (without any 3rd party apps) but suddenly I am frustrated because the way I have it, all my individual tasks appear in the note section of a given category and I can't check them off. I keep defaulting back to a...
I have been on some type of mobile email from blackberry to pull pop3 for a couple of years. I am considering dropping my unlimited data package from Verizon. It seems to me that getting emails while outside of the office will not contribute to my gtd system, since I cannot take action on some or...
