RYO  Sorry about that. Sounds like a random server / network issue. We're uploading the files onto an alternative server, hopefully it could help.

Will post back about the alt server when it's ready.

KPOWICK  This program will be useful to a certain type of person, but I'm not one of them. What I mean by this is that the "unique" interface is more "artsy" than businesslike. I felt there was a lot of wasted space due to overly large fonts in some places. Other points noted below:

If you don't link files added as external resources, you'll be doubling up on storage as merely dragging and dropping them results in a straight copy, which also means you could easily end up with two versions of the same file if you edit one outside of Pagico. I think that the default for file drag-drop operations should be to link them as an external resource, or at least make that a preference.

On a couple of occasions I had problems with the user interface becoming unresponsive for certain actions. Only relaunching the application corrected the issue.

While it does come with an uninstaller, it does not uninstall everything (Thank God for Tracker and XScan from RixStep). Some files/directories even required admin level access (SUDO) to remove. Not nice.

For reference, I'm running OSX 10.6.1 on a early 2009 MBP 15" with 4GB RAM

RYO  Hi there,

Although I can't comment too much on the "artsy" side of the UI, I do want to point out that you can link to files rather than duplicating them by pressing and holding the "Option" key while dragging. Adding a preference option for it might be helpful and I'll see what I can do on that.

Regarding to the uninstaller issue, we'll definitely fix that. Thanks for pointing out.

Best regards,

Ryo

ORION MK. V  Slow as pudding on my old MacBook, so I'm guessing you need a little more RAM and faster processor to get the most out of it. Not a criticism, just an observation.

RYO  Hmm... It shouldn't be that slow on a Macbook... What's your spec by the way?

Thanks!

RYO  Just FYI, Pagico 4 runs at a reasonable speed on my Powerbook G4 (1.67). So I'm wondering there might be something else on your machine that's slowing it down?

Thanks!

RPPHOTO  Just a pleasure to use, and too beautiful for words. This version is extremely easy to navigate and get use of, highly recommended. The only thing missing for me is the lack of a way to prioritize or manually put into order my timeline projects, but I've figured out workarounds for the time being.

POMARES  Have used Notebook and DevonThink for a while. Both of them I selected for their in-line linking features, despite their ugly interfaces. DevonThink 2 is coming out soon and looks a little better, but Pagico is simply gorgeous and it is a big deal to me.

I found Pagico's inline linking features to be its only weakness as far as data management is concerned. I want to be able to select a piece of text and make it a link to another topic. That is not possible in v.3 and the developer indicated that while they agreed that this would be the ideal way of doing inline-linking, they had not been able to develop this feature.

The way Pagico handles the cataloging of files is simple and elegant. And v.4 is supposed to make it even better. Pagico will take in just about any file you give it.

It is cross-platform. Moving to or from Windows, moving to or from Mac, moving to or from Linux is seamless. I can't think of any other PIM program that will do that for you.

Did I say the interface is gorgeous and intuitive? Well, it IS a big deal.

Now, Pagico does more than just help you organize your files, it also handles contacts and to-do lists. I use Things to manage my projects and tasks. It follows the GTD principles more closely. Pagico, with workarounds, will give you almost eveything GTD you need but you can tell that it is not meant to be a task management program primarily.

Finally, to me the most attractive feature of Pagico (besides it's beautiful interface ?) is the way it uses tags to catalog your files. It's Tag browser, named TagExploré, is very intuitive. It took me a while to figure out how it works, but now that I do, it feels like the model that matches the most closely the way I organize things in my head. Not just simple and elegant, it is very powerful!

SCOTTGSMITH62  This app does have some promise, but it falls short in a couple of areas.

The first issue I had with the application was a general sense of disorder. Part of it was related the fact that general application conventions have been put aside somewhat in order to be original. That's all fine and good, but when you have to spend a considerable amount of time to get beyond that "originality" to get things done, it defeats the purpose in a information management program.

The second issue I had with this, is solely related to price. These folks are really proud of their product. For what this application does, it does at a very high price point; i.e., there are a lot of applications out there that do more than this one for the money... just do a little searching.

I really do not think that this is worth your hard-earned money, given the high price and cluttered nature of the application.

RYO  An uninstaller has been added (and fixed) to the program since 3.1.0.51.

Users on either 10.4 / 10.5 will not experience any difficulties in removing the program.

Thank you!

KIDCLAM  Hi "The PRint"

How did you manual shut the server off. I don't even see it in the process list in Activity Monitor.

btw, uninstaller is not in the new installer.

Thx
