Trying to follow the directions in the PDF "GTD and Outlook" to filter tasks - but the filter button is always dimmed. (In fact have looked at Contacts and Notes views as well, and dimmed everywhere.) What configuration change needs to be made to allow filtering? Thanks, Dave
I have a PDA with Win Mobile 2003 and two notebooks: one at the office and one at home. And I have a hard drive (ZIV-drive) that includes all my Outlook data and that I always bring with me instead of notebooks. I mostly use PDA during the day and synq it twice with the notebooks by connecting the...
I've been reading about the various software programs (such as My Life Organized, TreePad, TreeDBNotes), and they seem close to what I'm looking for, but I don't think they're quite right. Perhaps one of you can point me to an appropriate program. I want the look of these programs. ie, I want...
I recently got great advice from this forum for myself (the suggestion of using EverNote). Now I'm back, looking for a similar-but-different program for my teenage daughter. Primary purpose: outlines for a specific class Secondary purpose: general note-taking However, she will sometimes be...
I just wanted to recommend the ClearTouch screen protector from http://www.boxwave.com (which I discovered when reading reviews on a different, PDA-specific, forum). The screen's are expensive, but REALLY nice and gave me no trouble with bubbles or irregular placement. Compared to the default...
I stubbled across a great online to do tracking site that was recently featured on lifehacker.com. The name of the to do site is hiveminder.com. I know you are probably thinking that another to do site is just what the world needs but this one appears to be really well thought out. Also, although...
Hi All, I have been reading "ADD Friendly Ways to Organizing Your Life" by Kolberg and Nadeau. While I have never been formally diagnosed with ADD/ADHD or whatever one wants to call it, some of the behaviors described in this book seem to strike a cord. I've been using the GTD Netcentrics...
Hey, I'm a Linux user (I'm a programmer) and I just read the "Getting Things Done" book and I am quite impressed with it. I looked around for a software solution, but couldn't find anything I really liked. Then I came across this site: http://www.rememberthemilk.com/ This is a "web 2.0" site...
In our office we have 5 registered ACT using who are using Act 2000. We have new staff thus need to add more users. Does anyone know if I'll have problems with some users still using Act 2000 and new users using Act 2006?
Got Documents To Go from Dataviz thanks to the advice of some good folks here – what a fabulous system it is! But here’s my query: I downloaded a couple of books in pdf format to my laptop, then transferred them to my Palm Zire using Docs To Go. But when I try to open them, I get the message: ...
Background: I am using the GTD Outlook Addin trial version and considering buying a Palm TX. I find the By Project view really useful in the Outlook Addin and I'm assigning projects to almost all my tasks, and Sub-Projects (client name) too in many cases. However, I understand there is a limit...
Hi everybody, I have been getting a lot of useful information from this forum and I am very grateful to all the people that write in it. It is now time for me to make my contribution. I have developed a "flexible" way of doing my weekly review that I would like to share with you. The need...
I have a Palm TX and my wife has just got a Palm TE2. On our PC we use Outlook for Calendar, Contacts, Tasks etc. I have been synchronising my Palm with Outlook which has been working fine. My wife has also started synchronising with Outlook which is fine for Contacts as we use the same Contact...
Hi folks, I need some help with Outlook, how can I setup a simpler filter in my Task to only see unchecked items, because right now I see the unchecked items and the checked items as well in light gray but its kind of distracting, I can't figure it out, any help or insight would be extremely...
Hi all, Could someone please tell me why everyone seems to be so fired up about using Moleskine notebooks? I've not seen one in person, but it looks like it's just a plain old notebook to me. Please, tell me - what's the big deal? ~b
I would appreciate some pointers on online resources for outlook programming. I have good knowledge of C/Unix/Scripts but have zero knowledge of windows,VC++ etc. What I am trying to do is to make some rudimentary (for now) additions to outlook in form of common GTD actions (such as...
I have been having great fun cleaning out my email inbox and sending messages to @action, @calls, etc. However, I have just noticed that these do not have their next actions attached to them. Because I didn't write them. OK so I am not the brightest bulb in the hall. But I cannot figure out how...
I use Outlook 2003 and by default it disables the downloading of images on HTML emails. However, whenever I hit reply (or forward), there's a popup box saying that it must download the images to do so. Is there a way where I can simply reply (or forward) as plain text and not have to download...
I use Ecco but just came across GemX's doOrganizer (http://www.gemx.com/doorganizer.php), which looks pretty impressive. I can't try it til I upgrade my system. Does anyone have any experience with it? They also make "TexNotes." I have no affiliation with GemX or anything. I'm just avoiding...
I've been trialing Doorganizer for GTD. It has a lot of features. The price ($149) made me hesitate. Now I've noticed that there is a Christmas special for $75. Thought some might be interested. Merry Christmas!! Mark BTW- I'm not connected in anyway with GemX, the maker. :)
