Sprint Novatel EV-DO Support	Dec 24 2007	REALMERLYN Works as it says on the tin! Finally, I don't need to borrow my brother's Windows laptop to activate or update my PRL. And the cool little GPS thing could be handy from time to time. (Version 2.0)		0

JOEL.SCHMIDT actually, I don't think PRL updating is enabled yet, but then again, I don't think they have released a new PRL since summer, so I wasn't able to test it before I notified MacUpdate of this release.

BARTEK BARGIEL have you turned on the setting 'sync pending tasks only' in preferences?

REALMERLYN Yeah, I saw that later.

One more request: a "start date" so that I don't have a lot of tasks in my sync that I know I won't be starting for a month or two. (Yes, I have that many plans.)

iGTD	Mar 31 2007	REALMERLYN I'm starting to like the looks of this, but before I can commit to it, I need to make sure I'm not putting my data into a "secret" database. Can you assure us that you'll either (a) open source your code, or (b) provide an export facility so we can get our data back out? (Version 1.3)		0

BARTEK BARGIEL sorry for no export feature yet - it will surely be there.

btw: don't forget that if you REALLY want to get your data back NOW... then just make all your contexts synchronizable to iCal, do a sync - and there they are: your tasks in iCal.

another possibility is: go to "To complete" tab, select all tasks and press Cmd+C. This will copy your tasks as plain text - with names, task notes and URLs.

hope I helped :-) thanks your comment!

REALMERLYN Ahh yes, I guess that would suffice. OK, the only thing missing from KGTD (that I use) now is recurring tasks. Oh, and an applescript interface would be nice, but I know that's a heckuva lot of work.

plist Helper	Mar 26 2007	REALMERLYN "plutil -convert xml1 YourFileHere" works fine for me. If you're smart enough to know you want an xml file, you're smart enough to type that. :) (Version 1.0.2)		0

DIGITAL_DREAMER Because this is an update?

Is there some problem releasing updates on MacUpdate??

REALMERLYN You're updating Apple software with non-apple software though. That sounds like you're in for a world of hurt when Apple also releases updates. I know we run into problems with people updating the built-in Perl with a newer version.
