Software :: Application Similar To Outlook's Task Management
Jul 9, 2009
I am new to mac and have previously tightly managed my life with Outlook's tasks, calendar, and all importantly its categories. I have got a beta version of Plaxo syncing my Windows machine to my Mac so that I have my tasks as to-dos in iCal but the functionality is not hardly as extensive as in Outlook on Windows. Can someone suggest an application I can use that is somewhat similar to Outlook's task management, whereby I can categorise tasks? I tried a work-around, by instead of using categories in Outlook, I create separate task data files, and although that 'categorises' the to-dos on the Mac it is hardly as neat as on Outlook and I am left with a mess.

I need a program to manage video files, similar to iTunes. I would love to use iTunes for it, as it's perfect, but unfortunately iTunes doesn't have a "video clip" section. I have tons of movies, tv shows, and music videos, all in iTunes organized perfectly. I also have a bunch of random video clips (commercials, random stuff) that I don't want to put into any of the "placeholders" iTunes has for videos, because none of the placeholders are applicable to them. Is there any program that supports tagging, searching, etc for videos, similar to iTunes? Currently I have them all in folders, and it's getting out of control.

This is very likey a simple fix, so I appreciate your help in advance and your bearing with me. On my iMac (10.5.8) I use mail.app to read my gmail account. On my Dell netbook (Windows 7) I use Outlook. Pretty standard stuff. But when one app downloads the message from the server, the other app doesn't. This is a major problem because I need to consolidate my emails all the time. Outlook has "Leave a copy on the server" checked and mail.app has "Delete from server" unchecked. Other than this, the gmail account functions perfectly in both apps.

I have a user who just switched from Mac Mail to Outlook 2011. Getting a strange issue when sending to users on Outlook 2010 PC.
When sending a message, users on Outlook 2011 and people viewing the message via web mail can see the message fine. It reports that it's a digitally signed message (just one sentence), and the certificates look fine. Via the web, the message appears fine. It says:
"This message has a digital signature. The digital signature could not be validated because the S/MIME control is not available." However, it comes up fine.
However, users on Outlook for PC (my version is 2010), cannot read it. I first get a preview pane error "This item cannot be displayed in the Reading Pane. Open the item to read its contents." And when I double-click on the message, I get a pop up window "Your Digital ID name cannot be found by the underlying security system."
Anyone can provide clues why other Outlook MAC users and via the web the message can be read, but just not PC Outlook users for now?

I will be switching from Outlook 2007 to Office for Mac Outlook 2011 for my business email/calendar/contacts. I am pleased with Outlook 2007, but despise my PC otherwise. I will be using Microsoft Exchange as my email server. My concerns: Calendar Syncing, Accessing Archived PST files, Transitioning current mail folders.
I have a couple questions regarding this switch:
- Will Office for Mac Outlook 2011 accommodate by business needs and offer a comparable application as Office 2007 (PC version)?
- What roadblocks or issues should I be aware of when making this switch?

Is there something similar to ACDSee for mac? I love using this on my PC, I don't wanna always store every single picture on IPhoto, I just want a photo browser that I can view multiple pictures without having to open each individually.

I have a task called 'named' running and it's taking up 100% of a single core (swtiches cores periodically, but 100% when it does). Any idea what this is and whether I can kill it? It looks like it belongs to Internet Sharing.
Edit: I just turned IS off and it disappeared. Turned IS back on and it seems to have killed 'named'.

recently I've noticed that my task bar doesn't let me know what programs are running. For instance, normally when a program is open, there's a small white dot under the icon, meaning the program is open. Now that doesn't appear anymore. Can anyone explain how I can turn this option back on? I might have inadvertently shut it off somehow.

There is this icon on my task bar that I can't seem to get rid of. I downloaded and installed an application to format an external drive, then when I wasn't happy with it, I deleted it. Unfortunately, when I deleted it, it didn't delete the icon it put in my task bar. I can click on it and get a menu and do a number of things. At the bottom of the menu I can choose "Disable DrivePulse". Nothing happens! I go to system preferences and look at my login items and it's not there! I find it in activity monitor, quit it from there, and it comes back a second later! I search my mac for Drive Pulse and Drive Genius 3 and I get no results! Can somebody help me disable this nuisance permanently? Is there a hidden file on my HD I have to delete?

I have a new Mac Pro (standard 2.8 configuration with 3 X 250GB in software RAID0) at my cable station at college. I was expecting this thing to be a real screamer, but I find myself a bit disappointed. Don't get me wrong, it's still quite fast. But for CPU-intensive task in Final Cut Studio, I find it to be slower than it should be. For example, compressing a 6 GB DV file for an iPhone is taking 32 minutes. CPU usage is only around 30% per core. I've never been able to drive CPU usage above this level in any task (Handbrake, Final Cut rendering, etc.) I know that not all software is able to fully use all of the cores, but this doesn't make sense to me. Is this normal performance? Or could something wrong with the Mac Pro?

Does anyone know of a task app that has the option to remain open and like pinned to the desktop? I've found some nice to-do apps that ive tried to use by my biggest problem is that if I dont see it all the time, I wont get it done- and I usually only open the app to add things to my "list" only to see things that I was supposed to have done!!
I realize that I could just leave the application open all the time, but that just doesn't seem to work for me, I like to see my background and I dont like having numerous windows open...

Every day NASA puts up an "Image of the Day" Sometimes it is a really cool nightscape, sometimes it is great hubble photography, etc... I've been opening up the page every day and right clicking on the new image and saving it to a folder. Is there a way to automate this?
I'd love for my computer to automatically go to the page with the new image on it and save it to a folder. Sometimes I jsut don't have the time to get over to the page, or I jsut simply forget. Is there a way to automate this process?

Is there any specific reason Kernel_Task seems to think he owns the place? What gives? It's like I turn my MacBook on and he's all like "oh hai! Ize just a system task! 50mb of memory? That's cool that's cool" Then only 2 hours later he's all like "Nah man, I just needed some more room see, it's like 120mb ain't dat much, k?"
I know that OS X handles ram real good and all, by freeing memory when it's required for higher-priority tasks, but I also know that it takes a bit more time to clear that memory AND re-allocate it...
So, is this a memory leak? And while I'm at it what about iChat Agent and Colloquy that are battling out to be RAM champ?
OH, and I haz 2gb installed at the moment.

I just purchased a 2.4 MacBook along with IWork. I am using this for school, not video editing or special effect stuff. I have always been a PC user until today. I was wondering if iwork is almost the same at ms office? I am used to using MS Word. Is the word processing on the iworks almost the same as the MS Word? For example, can I write am essay with IWorks with all the editing I need like the MS Word? I know I purchased the IWorks but I have not open it yet. I want to know you guys feedback before I open it. I don't know whether to get MS Office 08 for Mac instead?

Mac OSX 10.5.6When I have several applications running and one finishes a task it automatically changes to that space without asking. This is very annoying when I am in the middle of something in another application in another space. Is it possible to just get the icon to bounce instead of changing spaces like it did before using spaces.

I've done everything I can think about to fix Handbrake, and not having any luck. Is there another program that will work the same way that Handbrake does that works well on macs? Handbrake keeps shutting off about 30% of the way in. No matter what movie it is, it shuts off.

anway, im can't stand these ads, is there anything (even for safari 3) that would block them "similar to ad block plus" in firefox? if there is nothing im not even going to see if it better suits me. since i got a dvr and all this ad blocking add ons (you can actually target an add that isn't caught by the filter and make it filter it, amazing) i absolutely can not one bit stand there and take it from all these ads

what I would like (as this is now for work also) is the 24" ACD hooked up to the MBP and another screen hooked up to my PC next to it, however, I'd prefer to have 2 identical screens. As there doesn't seem to be a way of connecting the 24" ACD to a normal PC yet, a monitor that looks like the ACD and preferrably the same height and glossy too.
