Looking for a simple database.

I am looking for a very simple data base program to organize email addresses for mailings that we do for our business. I was using numbers but with the recent upgrade it does not seem like the best option. A free program would be my preference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The free sqlite3 database comes with OS X Mavericks and earlier OS X releases. The default interface is the Terminal, as shown in the following. It assumes you know the Structured Query Language (SQL).
/usr/bin/sqlite3 mydatabase.db
sqlite> .help
<sqlite>.quit
man sqlite3
You might consider a proper visual interface that sits on top of sqlite3 from Apple's App Store. Base is an example of one tool. There are others. These are much easier to tolerate for some than the command line interface in Terminal.

Looking for a simple database app.

I have an Excel sheet that i use to store simple database data. Like a flat file database with only 4 columns, no relations, no calculations, just data storage.
I don't want to download and install over a 100Mb of OpenOffice or NeoOffice just to be able to see my Excel sheet so i was thinking at converting it to a simple cardfiler-like database.
Guess what? There are no simple databases for the Mac! There is OpenOffice and NeoOffice and there is FileMaker. But no simple, small, configurable card-filer. I checked VersionTracker, IUseThis, but i cannot find anything.
That makes me think that it already needs to be available on the standard installed apps (please say that i'm right) and i just don't see it.
Any suggestions? Any help? Am i really missing the point here?
Thanks all!
Ton.

Haven't looked at Wallet. Looked at iData, but that is payware now. I'm trying now woth OmniOutliner which seems to look ok.

Looking for A Powerful Database App

Hello!
I know this is not the best place to ask this question but I didn't have the choice. I am looking for a good database software to make databases for a bit everything: books, CDs, players list in video games, etc.
I have been using FileMakerPro for a long time and this program is great but I grew tired of the interface....even if you can do anything with it I don't like it.
So I looked on the web, I tried iList Data but it is not complete enough for me. And I just heard about AppleWorks. Someone said on a forum that it is better than iList Data.
Is AppleWorks what I could be looking for regarding what I want to do with a database? I want something complete but more userfriendly than FMP.
Thanks a lot!
Vinny.

Hi Vinny,
As much as I love AppleWorks and use its DB module, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone as a 'new' purchase for one simple reason.
Apple last updated AppleWorks in 2004, noted they were building the successor to AppleWorks in 2005, and declared AppleWorks EOL with the introduction of Numbers in iWork '08.
EOL doesn't mean that the application no longer works, just that Apple no longer sells, develops or supports it.
For someone familiar with the existing version and used to its quirks and foibles, that's not a major problem. For someone coming to AppleWorks cold, it could be.
FMPro is a relational database application, and capable of far more than AppleWorks (a flat file DB). The appearance of the interfaces is similar, as both were designed at Claris, now FileMaker.
OpenOffice.org and NeoOffice (based on OpenOffice.org) both have database capabilities. You may find their learning curves a bit steeper than FMPro's.
Database Options For The Macintosh offers further information on desktop and server DB applications for Mac.

Barry

I'm looking for a simple DJ app

Hi Folks,
I hope this is the best place for this question! I'm looking for a simple App that will allow me to add music on the fly to a playing playlist. iTunes DJ does most of what I want but doesn't allow me to drag and drop order or remove songs. I don't need turntables or eq or anything like that. Just a simple way to create playlists on the fly with the ability ro rearange the order, add and remove songs on the fly. Also, if there's a better forum for my question, please advise.
Thanks!
Greg

Which particular Mac OS are you running, psychmac?

Looking for a simple drawing application for my grand-daughters

Well, that's more or less it, I'm looking for a simple drawing application for my grand-daughters. In the children section of iTunes store, there's only a few books and nothing more. I bought the iPad mainly for my grand-children to teach them a bit and I don't find interesting things for them.
Can anybody help me with that?
Pedro Godfroid Goffin

Brushes is a nice finger drawing app. Since you didn't say how old they are, I don't know if the interface is to difficult for them to use.
Sketchbook is another nice drawing app.
Neither are free.

Looking for a simple way to convert a string to title case

New to LiveCycle and Javascript. Looking for a simple way to convert a string to title case, except acronyms. Currently using the the following, it converts acronyms to lower case:
var str = this.rawValue;
var upCase = str.split(" ");
for(i=0; i < upCase.length; i++) {
upCase[i] = upCase[i].substr(0,1).toUpperCase() + upCase[i].substr(1).toLowerCase();
this.rawValue = upCase.join(' ');

Thanks for the reply.
Found the following script in a forum, which works fine as a "custom validation script" in the.pdf version of my form. However, it will not work in LiveCycle? The problem seems to be with
"return str.replace(/[A-Za-z0-9\u00C0-\u00FF]+[^\s-]*/g"
function toTitleCase(str) {
var smallWords = /^(a|an|and|as|at|but|by|en|for|if|in|nor|of|on|or|per|the|to|vs?\.?|via)$/i;
return str.replace(/[A-Za-z0-9\u00C0-\u00FF]+[^\s-]*/g, function(match, index, title){
if (index > 0 && index + match.length !== title.length &&
match.search(smallWords) > -1 && title.charAt(index - 2) !== ":" &&
(title.charAt(index + match.length) !== '-' || title.charAt(index - 1) === '-') &&
title.charAt(index - 1).search(/[^\s-]/) < 0) {
return match.toLowerCase();
if (match.substr(1).search(/[A-Z]|\../) > -1) {
return match;
return match.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + match.substr(1);
event.value = toTitleCase(event.value);

Looking for a simple flip book template for Flash CS5

Hi, I'm looking for a simple flip book template for Flash CS5 for a 20 page brochure/ booklet. Or a tutorial. Does anyone know of one?
Thanks!

Hi Mark,
No need to restrict your choice to the preset Pages Templates. Do a web search and choose a Word template. Pages will open Word documents and templates. Or design your own:
This is a Table I inserted into a blank Pages Word Processing document. Format the date column in Inspector > Table > Format > Cell Format. Select the first Date cell,then drag the fill handle down to increment the dates.

Looking for a simple answer ........ without the ...

looking for a simple answer ........why is it more difficult for skype to connect than before . It fails to ring most times and your never sure if it is just slow or did not dial in the first place??? and is there any way to disable the leave a message feature ??? I am afraid soon it will be like most wondows applications where you will need endless updates and patches just to keep it running ..... Why is it that everyone is trying to fix everthing when it isnt broken.

WTF? I'm sure you can find plenty of examples on google. It's on you to take the time to go through them, study them, and, if you still don't understand something, post a clear, concrete question that indicates what you read and what you didn't understand about it.
As is, you're essentially treating folks here as your research flunkies and saying, "Give me an example that's better than all the ones already easily available to me. Read my mind to know why I didn't like them."

No, you will need something more advanced, like Photoshop.

I'm looking for a simple Notebook template for Pages. Any help?

I'm looking for a simple "notebook" looking journal that can be used in Pages. This can also be a journal that has dates; actually, that is preferable, but just a notebook is a minimally satisfactory template.

Looking for a simple, standalone desktop app for web stats

Well, I see they've changed the forums here again. SIGH.
Anyway, a certain web host has eliminated AWStats from it's shared hosting. So I used Webmaster Tools. And now they've changed, and no longer display the simple visitors and hits. Google Analytics is way too complex for what I need, as are many of the stats programs I've looked into.
I can download the daily Apache log files, that's no problem. Just looking for a small standalone program to import these and show the data like AWStats. Any suggestions? The only other options would be to go to a different web host. Not a big deal overall, but I would rather not deal with the hassle, especially the migrating the database.

Not sure of standalone 'desktop' apps. But check out http://www.openwebanalytics.com/ and Web Analytics in Real Time | Clicky - they're both very intuitive and easy to use with a lot more simplified stats than Google Analytics.

Looking for a simple Text App with options like columns, lists etc

I am looking for an app that lets me do simple things like type lists of things , create columns etc . PLEASE tell me that my Mac Pro with Snow Leopard already has the ability to do this somewhere and that i dont need to buy "iWork" or "Excell" to perform this basic function. Thanks

If you're talking about a simple word processor, then Bean (http://www.bean-osx.com/Bean.html) will be worth a look. It's simple, has the ability to create text columns, and best of all, is free!
NeoOffice (Mac port of OpenOffice) is fantastic if you need a complete Office suite (http://www.neooffice.org) - also free. Its spreadsheet app is called Calc.
Mac Mail and iCal can do 'To Do' lists, and there's also plenty of free apps that do simple to-do type lists.
When you mention 'lists' the app that comes to mind is OmniOutliner (http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnioutliner/) but it's not free.
