Menu Minder for Mac2.0.8

I keep forgetting I have this app, I was looking for something to remind me to take breaks and this can pretty much remind you of anything, by mail even (or SMS for Americans), it can start other apps etc, and lives in the menubar, what more can you ask for.. Seems they have an iOS app too.. but I'm an Android type.

This dog don't hunt. Doesn't open -- yeah, I checked my menu bar after I clicked it, too. The developer's website doesn't even show this app. Updated to version 4.2.2, and got the same. No documentation. No help. No online support. Not impressed. Another fine MacCrapStore App.

AVOID. This developer is useless, as well as their website. I have their "Limit Point Software Utilities Bundle" where you get all of their apps with updates forever. Yeah, good luck. Anyone else having problems? Leave a comment, and maybe I'll start legal action to get them to honor their comments.

"The requested address: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~pagliara does not correspond to any file that is currently available on www-personal.umich.edu. Please double-check the URL or try the search box below." Looks like the developer needs to find a new host for their website.

How is this program related to the one from www.limit-point.com? Just curious.

I just downloaded and ran 1.8.1 and the demo won't allow me to create reminders. I get a nag window when I select New Reminder or New Quick Reminder from the menu.

This application is a wonderful little nag. I've been using it for a couple of months and it's a snap to set up. It doesn't have tons of bells and whistles, but I have those bells and whistles in other reminder applications -- and I don't use them! With MenuMinder I can quickly create reminders on the fly right from the menu bar, and that's exactly what I want. If I need something "deeper," I can use iCal. With MenuMinder I can get a pop-up window, an email or a text message, and that is very handy for traveling. The author is responsive and quick to address feature requests. The only features I could ask for at this point are some keyboard shortcuts -- I tried adding my own, but they didn't work -- and to have the "OK" button already highlighted/selected so that I can just tab and arrow through the date and hit return. Then I would really be flying!

A very handy little app for sure. Must give it a try.

Better and simpler than iCal. ineedit!

I think the idea of MUPromo's is great. Mac users will buy shareware that they might not

i don't have much use for MenuMinder, but went to their website and found PictureSwitch, which I immediately bought at full price, it's so exactly what I've been needing w/o knowing it.

VERY useful! I think I'm going to have to get it!

Downloaded the trial. Started using it right away. Worth the purchase.

wow. apple definitely dropped the ball on this. hope they buy it from you ical is sooooooo obtrusive.

Just doenloaded the demo and I love it. It's simple and gets the job done.

This looks like pretty useful software, something I've actually been looking for. I'm definitely going to give it a whirl!

This application might be better than others because it allows for quick easy access without fumbling for a post it note on the screen, or having to waste space on the screen with notes...I also like that it gives options for using it with emails as well...I would like to give this one a shot

Looks like a Great program for those os us who need reminders

This looks really intriguing. It would be perfect if the reminders were integrated into iCal ToDos- guess I'll have to try it and find out!

Bah.. cheap but fairly useless: iCal is better imo :)

If your post doesn't help you to get a free copy of MenuMinder, well, try Check Off h**p://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/10593/check-off

Seems quite useful, but does not seem to work with SMS everywhere

This is just the kind of thing I need. It is very useful to be able to email your mobile phone.

Looks interesting. I have it giving me a reminder every minute: LOSE WEIGHT! Let you know in a week or so if it works

My menu bar is so full already, but I'm going to give it a try. It's cheap, and it doesn't take much memory - good combo!

No stars, no reviews, this software is for me. I want to be able to: Create quick, simple reminders straight from your menu bar. Quickly create a reminder using the system-wide menu that can be accessed from any application. Never forget anything ever again. MenuMinder can also email you reminders or send reminders to your mobile phone.

What does this do that iCal doesn't?

This actually looks like it may be better than the others.

If you go to the manufactures website: Special Offer: Purchase MenuMinder, SwitchTop, QuickTop and PictureSwitch for just $20 (50% off!) They have a better deal.

Maybe this can help me keeping my appointments in mind.

Really cool, but just not sure if I'd use it that much.

mm, Seems useful for my appointments

nice little tool!

clean and simple. worth trying.

Seems quite useful, but does not seem to work with SMS everywhere

Ugh, those brushed metal windows are terrible. Update those things to some smoky bezels.

Looks like some overlap between Quicktop and PictureSwitch. Wouldn't mind Switchtop.

looks as though it could be very useful.

hmm... this might be exactly what my wife needs.... I'm the computer geek, not her. I'll have to see if it's significantly easier to enter quick alarms in here rather than in ACP or Daylite or x app or the microwave to suit our needs.

Yeah I already have Alarm Clock Pro as well as MenuCalendarClock to do this.

IMO It's too simple to waste precious space in menu bar...

was thinking the other day, i need to look for a simple program to do just this...

Interesting app. I will have to try it but it looks like it could be a lightweight alternative to the reminder function of my Alarm Clock Pro.

I'll have to download this and try it. Looks interesting.

This should go well with MenuCalendarClock from the other day.

Would be great if this integrated with iCal tasks and appointments. Nice to have a little reminder hanging around that I don't have to remember to look at :)

does it sync with iCal?

Use Check Off! It's free and you can truely manage all your To-Do list directly from the menu bar drop-down window.

I like the menu bar convenience but it's way to featureless. If you modify your app to allow editing of existing reminders, copy / paste, and print out the list window then it will be closer to being worth the ten bucks. As it stands it should be a freebie.
