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.

  • Looking for a voice memo app with folders

    Looking for a voice memo app with folders
    I'm trying to find a simple voice memos app that allows me to save the voice memos in folders right on the phone, and have them backed up to my desktop when I sync. I used to use Recorder Pro by Bear-Software but it doesn't work properly anymore. It was great when it worked. Why do so many of the voice memo apps just keep your voice memos in one huge long unorganized list? I need to be able to create 10 or 15 folders within the app, and save each voice memo to a specific folder. Any voice memo apps come to mind?

    received this repsposne from the folks at Imesart:
    Dear Andrew,
    No app on iOS will let you add files to the music library. The only way to do this is to use iTunes on a computer.

  • Im looking for a good note app with pen for taking notes ( in english and german )during business trips. Can anyone help

    I'm looking for a good note app with pen function for taking notes ( in English and German ) during business trips. Can anyone help?

    Really sorry to hear about this, particularly when you're putting your life on the line. But Apple cannot track your iPhone in any way unless you had set up Find My iPhone prior to it being lifted.
    It's possible that AT&T might be able to do something, but it's probably that they cannot track it, or will not without a request from an authorized law enforcement agency, but rather would only disable the device. You'll have to try and find a way to contact AT&T directly and ask if they can do anything to help you; the chances of any AT&T employee in a position to help you spotting this thread it pretty small.
    Good luck, stay safe, and come home soon.
    Regards.

  • 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!

  • 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 voice to text app as good as Droid......anyone know of one?

    I'm looking for a voice to text app that is incorporated in actual text messaging similar to Droid that I can use on my 3GS. Anyone know of one?

    To straighten things out: You mean you are looking for a messenger application ie SMS or MSN with voice to text capability?
    AFAIK there is no messenger client to iOS that has incorporated voice to text capability. Yet. However, Nuance has now released their SDK to all iOS developer to incorporate Voice to text capability so it should be just a matter of time now before your favorite messenger app gets V2T.
    Voice recognition is an even harder challenge not at least due to all kinda dialects and strange pronunciations and very few has the economic power and skills to create a good and working Voice to Text. Nuance (Dragon Dictate) is one of the few who knows about it.
    The reason Dragon Dictate App on iOS "exports" the text to other third part app the ways it does is due to security reasons (every app is sandboxed).
    Dragon Dictate v2 supports iOS4 and after "voicing" you just hit the key to which you want to send it to: SMS, e-Mail, Twitter, Facebook..

  • Looking for very simple drawing app for tablet [Solved]

    Hey,
    Im running Arch with XFCE on an Asus T91MT tablet/netbook, with a resistive screen & pen.
    I'm looking for a very basic, lightweight, tablet-oriented drawing/sketching/doodling app, to make notes, draw ideas/concepts, etc.
    I've tried MyPaint, which doesn't work because the screen isn't pressure sensitive (I would only need one pen size anyway), and a few other apps.
    SmoothDraw (windows app) is exactly what i'm looking for, but it doesn't install on wine. And wine doesn't help with the "keeping it light" idea, so I would prefer something native.
    Any suggestion is welcome!

  • Looking for a Music Player App with FTP

    I've been looking for a App that will play/stream  music files from
    a FTP site (or personal cloud) 
    anybody seen an App  that does this?
    thanks!

    Most cloud music players will only access their cloud folders, not
    an indépendant FTP folder.
    I did find one that kinda works - DeadOn Player. 
    but it's buggy and crashing.

    Hi there,
    I've just joined google for my email and like you wanted to sync my contacts and calendar.
    I had a couple of problems but have ironed them out below.
    First....Google have a 'google sync' program that is advertised as syncing both your contacts and calendar. This has not worked for me. I can sync my calendar no problem at all, but it hasn't worked for my contacts. On looking across the google firums I am by no means alone and indeed google employees who post there have acknowledged the problem too,
    So how to get round it and sync your calendar and contacts?
    For calendar go to this link
    http://www.google.com/mobile/products/sync.html#p=nokia_smart
    Follow the instructions and tell the Mail for Exchange program NOT to sync your contacts.  Like I said, although it's supposed to I couldn't get it to work despite a reformat of the device twice! A google employee on the forums even went out and bought the 5800 and tried to get it to work as he has noted that people are having problems. Hopefully it'll be addressed in the future.
    For syncing your contacts, go to this page
    http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=98230&topic=15015
    All the details for contacts sync are laid out for the pages of setup you have for a S60 3rd edition device. If, like me you have a S60 5th edition device, the details are all there but are requested in a different order. Have a good scan of the pages and you WILL find all the info you need.
    Both methods work great for me and I'm delighted.
    Hope this maybe helps
    If my post has helped you in anyway, please press the 'kudos' button.
    Thanks

  • Looking for a browser or app with one click data entry

    One thing I miss on the iPad is the ability to quickly enter information in web sites like my name, e-mail, etc. For example, Firefox for windows has an add-on called "InFormEnter" which places a check box next to each data entry block. Clicking on it allows entry of the information with one additional click. I know that some iPad password managers will remember this info, but most seem to require entering a password each time you use it.
    Mercury browser for the iPad remembers data for visited sites but seems to require manual input for every new site.
    Is there an app or browser for iPad that will work without entering a password or requiring manual input for every new site?

    The subscription version of LastPass has formfill capability and syncs information from your LastPass account that works on multiple platforms/OSs.

  • Looking for a simple desktop app

    Help please -- there's an app out there that does this simple thing but I can't remember its name or see it in the App Store.
    What I'd like to do, when watching a video, is blank out the rest of the desktop somehow.
    (Think I saw a small note in Macworld a few months ago about it).
    Thanks -- fortes

    Thanks, BDAqua, but no. I'm not seeking to go Full Screen with the video but rather to have the rest of the desktop go blank -- so as to watch a video that's on the desktop without anything else showing.
    (Been through all the recent Macworlds and still can't find it).
