1.2.18

08 November 2018

View iCal events in a window or as screensaver (was iCalViewer).

Overview

TimeWorks displays the events from Apple's calendar application, iCal, in a window. Each event is displayed in a similar way to iCal and marches towards a finish line which is the time now.

You set how far you want to see into the future.
Events are displayed in a window on the desktop, over the screen saver.
An Exposé hotkey brings the display quickly into view when you need it.

My TimeWorks stopped working as soon as the calendar changed to January 1, 2015. I tried going to support, but they just tried to sell me other apps.

I loved iCal Viewer, but TimeWorks seems glitchy about submitting registration information during the "trial" period. Now, months later, it has stopped working completely. I tried deleting it entirely, reinstalling, and reregistering it but no joy. I contacted the developer, but the response was from a lackey telling me the developer would get back to me soon. That was months ago. Buyer beware.

Timeworks Version 1.2.12 stopped working for registered users on January 1st, 2017. If you delete it and download again from the Appstore, you will still get the same version again and it will still not launch. You take your computer's date back to December 31, 2016, the program will work again. It's really annoying because it's such an essential piece of software. Please Karl, fix it ! Thanks to all the users that pointed out the date problems in the past. It's here again.

We had the same problem in the transition to 2014-2015. I don't know why the developer cannot fix such a seemingly easy bug. Only solution I found, like yourself, is to change the date to anything in 2016, launch TimeWorks and then update the clock again. If course, this must be done every time you re-launch TW.

Anyone know if the Crapstore version gets us past the date bug? Crapstore version is listed as 1.2.10 and looking at the comments it *seems* like the bug is fixed there. I've bought the direct download version however, which is still the bugged version on Karl's site. The temporary bug fix is also up, but it expired Jul 15th. Karl's been unresponsive to emails. Wondering if the Crapstore version does indeed have the fix and debating whether or not to bite the bullet and get that so I can get my Timeworks working again. Lack of responsiveness (and the fact that I've already bought this twice (Timeworks and iCalViewer)) has me a bit wary. Not sure why the versions are out of sync. =(

Confirmed. Thanks for the heads up. Thanks Karl for continuing to support one of my few "Must Have" apps!

oh … didn’t notice that you had mentioned the beta before I did …thank you.

I've confirmed that the date is the problem, if you change the system time to somewhere in 2014 it will work again. Needless to say, it won't be any use if you have the wrong year setup. I really hope this will be fixed, this app is one of those little gems that I use daily. I will still give it 5 stars because I'm an optimist.

The developer should at least mention or explain the problem on his website. But there is no response from him. He does not answer my email. This is a very unprofessional behavior towards its customers.

Karl has obviously still hungover from New Year's Eve. Maybe there were a few beers too much :) Good morning Karl, your app TimeWorks does not work anymore ....
