Good PIM personal information manager for managing contacts?

As a user of cellphones since the days of the Treo and organizers back in the days of Palm Pilot, I remember some of the better PIMs that were available. The built-in PIM to iTunes is definitely not on the level of the Blackberry PIM or the old Palm Desktop.
What is a good PIM that will let me manage iOS and non-iOS contacts?
I have spotty service when I'm overseas sometime, so iCloud is not going to do it. Something that can be installed on a PC and MAC (not just MAC) would be great.

What is PIM(Personal Information Manager)

Hi Friends.......
i want to know about PIM(Personal Information manager)in J2ME.
the only thing i know abt it is it's a specific type of API
but what it exactly?
also i doing a simple code snipet from Complete Reference Book
while executing that code on j2me wireless tolkit 2.5.2
it shows error on it's very first statement;
import javax.microedition.pim.*
it is necessary to seperately downloaded the API similar to that of CLDC & MIDP.
please reply....

Well directly from the J2ME PIM website ( [http://developers.sun.com/mobility/apis/articles/pim/index.html|http://developers.sun.com/mobility/apis/articles/pim/index.html] ) is this statement:
"Personal information management (PIM) refers to the ability to manage in electronic form the kinds of personal data that broad classes of users want handy, such as appointment books, contact directories, and to-do lists."
We're talking about accessing the actual PIM applications on the device (i.e. the Calendar, Contact List, etc. native to the specific phone/pda/device).
the javax.microedition.pim package is an optional package, meaning it is not part of the core MIDP/CLDC APIs. So, yes, you have to download a separate package and place the library in your classpath in order to compile on your system.
Now the next problem you're going to run into is "does your target device support this optional package". There is a reference implementation for PocketPC OS from IBM that you can find here: [http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/j-pda-op|http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/j-pda-op] . However if you're trying to perform this on a cellphone (for example) the phone's J2ME implementation is going to have to have support for JSR 75 for this to work at all. I don't know where there is a definitive list of phones that support JSR 75, but I believe BlackBerry's with version 4.2 or newer (for example) do support this package. I believe some Motorla, Erickson, Nokia and other phones support this optional package.
I read somewhere that the following line of code should tell you whether a device supports JSR 75 or not:
System.getProperty("microedition.io.file.FileConnection.version"); If this returns null then the system does not. If it returns a non-null string, then it does at some level.

Different Personal Information Manager

Hello Community.
is it possible to push another personal information manger, than Microsoft Exchange/Outlook.
I want to manipulate the presence off the user, from a different company's presence indication.
is this possible?
please tell me if more information regarding the setup or question is needed?
Best regards Mike

By Default No, Lync Client on Desktop will not detect when you have an ongoing call on 20201234, so that it sets 20202345 as busy.
By default, If you have a company cellphone with nr:20201234, and Lync Desktop Client with nr. 20202345, you will be able to call from your client Desktop the mobile phone.
To get lync client detect mobile phone and working together, you will need to configure it from lync client by enable
Simultaneously Ring

How to Navigate Directly to Manager SSHR Personal Information

Hi there,
Is it possible to navigate directly to an employees personal information either via a function or a url call?
For example a function to simulate navigating to:
Manager Self Service -> Personal Information -> Search for EmployeeA and start actions
Using the function HR_PERINFO_MGR_SS I can navigate to Manager Self Service -> Personal Information but I still have to enter the EmployeeA name which is what I want to avoid. Ideally I would like to pass the personID.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
Many thanks,
Mike

Thanks for the reply. I tried your suggestion of redirecting to the view activity URL using the code below.
ControllerContext controllerContext = ControllerContext.getInstance();
String viewId = "RootFlow1/PageOne";
String url = controllerContext.getGlobalViewActivityURL(viewId);
System.out.println(url);
FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().redirect(url);
the sysout prints the URL below
/TestUIShell-ViewController-context-root/faces/RootFlow1/PageOne?_adf.ctrl-state=qlewpla4_41
However, I get a 404, saying that it can't find the page. I tried modifying some of the flow settings to get it to work. I set the redirect property on the view to true and the URL Invoke visiblity on the flow to url-invoke-allowed, but I still get a 404. What am I missing?
To give you more info about our app, we are using an outer page template to define the layout of the app (like the Fusion UIShell) and an inner page template to define the main area where pages will be rendered. Navigation is achieved by putting the main area flow in a dynamic region. When the user clicks a lnk, we swap out the task flow id on the region. Once they are in the region, navigation is normal ADF navigation within just that region.
I read both of the threads that you referenced, but I don't see anything in there that I can use (maybe I'm missing it). Are there other ways to navigate to a view in a flow that I am missing?
Thanks!!

Multi language support for Product Information Management

Does Product Information Management support mutiple langauges and to what extent? For example, an Item Description can be entered for several language but can the user-defined attributes be entered for several languages?
Where can I find more documentation of the multi-language support of PIM?
We are on Advanced Product Catalog version 12.0.0.

Was able to do it by adding new files to the shared folder and updating the style in the lang folder to point to the new files.

Error in Remote Web Access - "An unexpected error occurred. Please try again. If the problem continues, contact the person who manages your server."

I have set up the RWA and I can log in to the web console with my server account. However when I click on any of the shared folders I get this error:
An unexpected error occurred. Please try again. If the problem continues, contact the person who manages your server.
Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this?
Regards,

I had this very same issue with one of our customer's servers that was running Windows Server Essentials. I ended up calling Microsoft about the issue. I hope this helps someone. This originally appeared on my blog: http://techspeeder.com/2014/01/14/remote-web-access-error-an-unexpected-error-occurred/
Troubleshooting Steps:
1. We were getting unexpected errors while accessing shared folders remotely
2. The tech found IIS handlers were missing
3. She went to IIS > server level ( parent level) and added managed handler mapping :
Name: svc-Integrated-4.0
Request path: *.svc
Executable: System.ServiceModel.Activation.ServiceHttpHandlerFactory, System.ServiceModel.Activation, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35
4. Added script mapping:
Name: svc-ISAPI-4.0_64bit
Request path: *.svc
Executable: windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll
Name: svc-ISAPI-4.0_32bit
Request path: *.svc
Executable: windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework32\v4.0.30319\aspnet_isapi.dll
5. Ran IISreset.
6. We were able to access resources in Remote access, then.

I have an iMac for work and I am leaving the company. How do I clear the computer so that my soon to be former company is unable to see my personal information Ie. - internet, contacts, etc...

Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
Step One - Back up your data:
       A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
       B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
          1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
          2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
          3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
              side.
          4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
              sure to opt for that.
               Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
               startup drive.
Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
          1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
          2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
          3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
          4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
          5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See.What to do with iCloud before selling your computer
Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
     A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
          1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
          2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
          3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
              Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          4. Install OS X.
          5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
          6. Shutdown the computer.
     B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                   it is three times faster than wireless.
          1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
              Utilities window appears.
          2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
          3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click
              on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
          4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
              and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
          5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
          6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
          7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
          8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
*If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.

Hi - was looking to buy a macbook air soon but wanted to get it with lion software....anyone know when that is available and second question is what is best software for personal money management that works with lion.....use quicken now thanks

Hi - was looking to buy a macbook air soon but wanted to get it with lion software....anyone know when that is available and second question is what is best software for personal money management that works with lion.....use quicken now thanks

quicken should work with lion.
Quicken Essentials will work with Lion. Most people that have used Quicken for a while (i.e. Quicken 2007) have found that Quicken Essentials isn't much better than a basic spreadsheet. It is a significant step down from previous versions and does not offer many of the features previously offered. Right now, it seems like the two most common options are iBank and MoneyDance.
Frankly... this is a major opportunity for these companies. The largest commercial distributor of this type of product has been Intuit (Quicken). That makes it hard for any other company to get any of that market as so many people were already using Quicken and may have had years of data stored in it. Now, with Quicken effectively out of the picture, it's a great chance for another company. Just imagine if iPhones were suddenly off the market. That would give other manufacturers a tremendous opportunity since they wouldn't have to fight an up hill battle against a market giant.

Business Information Management - Quickbase, Basecamp, etc.

I work with international trade with dozens of customers and factories, hundreds of contacts, and at any moment in time there may be dozens if not hundreds of projects I need to manage, from quotes to production to shipments and deliveries.
Recently I became aware of a new class of web based Business Information Management software, like Quickbase or Basecamp, that allow you to create projects on line, invite project team members, schedule events and deadlines, etc.
Part of what attracts me to these solutions is that it organizes communication on a project by project basis. Searching through e-mail threads to find an e-mail from a customer that changed the spec on a product 3 months ago (when the subject line had nothing to do with the spec change) is a not infrequent event that consumes a lot of time.
Any thoughts out there regarding better and more efficient ways to use Mail (I haven't yet used the search features or Smart folders very well) and any thoughts on those of you who have used some of these web based project management systems? One of my largest customers is starting to use Quickbase and they have become addicted to the power of managing their purchasing team and deadlines.
