[SOLVED] Time tracking app outside Gnome

I used to use hamster-applet in Gnome, which I loved for time tracking. Over the weekend I've converted myself to DWM, so using hamster is out. I've looked around and haven't found any real options other than a webapp called SlimTimer which I used back when I was on another OS which I won't mention by name. However, if available, I'd prefer something that can be used offline as well.
What are the tiling WM users doing for time tracking?

There are a few in the AUR. Just search on the http://aur.archlinux.org/ page for "time track" or the like.
If you do use yaourt, try a search like
yaourt -Ss track | grep time
Personally I used gnotime for several years. It still works but development has apparently ceased.

Time tracking app

I'm looking for advice on a time tracking app that will allow me to quickly enter a start/stop time from the home screen. So when I'm working on a project and another project becomes 'more important', I can quickly switch between start/stop.
Start/stop times won't be billable, but will need to be sorted.

Have a look at myWorkTime it might be what you are looking for, it is a universal app.
I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link. <Edited by Host>

Looking for SIMPLE time tracking app

Hi all
I'm looking for a really simple 'retrospective' time sheet app - wondering if anyone knows one?
I've seen literally hundreds, but they all want you to 'click to start the clock' and then click to end it. This doesn't work for me, as I spend only about 25% of my time in front of the computer.
What I'm looking for is something that I can put all my client contacts in, then separately link projects to those clients. Then at the end of each day I can quickly recall what I did during the day and assign time to each project.
Most apps want you to assign time to each project as you go through the day, so its relatively painless to switch projects. However when you do it all at the end of the day, you don't want to keep entering the date, you just want to enter the start/end time, and what project it was. More like a journal entry I guess.
Then at the end of the month it would print a report that groups the hours worked on each project so that you can review them and create an invoice (or in my case send to my accounts clerk who makes the invoice for me).
Any ideas from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi shannonbray, welcome to the AppleWorks forum, which is intended for discussions of Apple's now-legacied productivity suite called AppleWorks.
One could develop such a template using the spreadsheet or database modules of AW separately or in combo,but it doesn't sound as if that's your aim. I'm sure clever types have done such things, and perhaps shared them to the AWUserGroups and such, and I hope they note your post and reply. There are certainly numerous clever folks who follow this forum, and they may have pointers to other apps for you, but essentially I think you've posed the wrong question in the wrong place.

Free Time Tracking App

Not sure where to post this or if it is a valid question, but I'm looking for a free application to track time on different "projects" so at the end of the week I'll be able to see I spent x number of hours on school projects, lab work, actual work, etc. I picture being able to start a timer as I begin my work along with the type of project/work I'm performing then stop it when I'm finished. Sort of like a stop watch in a way. I just got 10.5 so that is why I'll post this question in this forum (haha). Thanks for any input.

You can search for time-tracking software on these sites: http://www.versiontracker.com, http://www.macupdate.com

Can't Export ALL Comments from Issues Tracking app in Sharepoint 2013

I really like the flexability of the SharePoint 2013 Issues Tracking application. I am able to enter the initial issue, then update it regularly with "comments". Each comment is added as a seperate entry to the issue, date stamped, etc.
The issue I am having is in exporting this to Excel. I know, I know, the purpose of SharePoint is that you DON'T turn everything into an Excel spreadsheet. However, I have to send the issues to an external contact that does not have access to the SharePoint
environment. When I export to Excel, it only adds the LAST comment to the Comments column in the spreadsheet. I need all comments combined, and dropped into the correct cell.
Is there a way to do this? I found another thread where it seemed everyone accepted the fact that this was not possible, but I thought I'd try one more time and see if there were any new ideas.
I believe this is tied to the option of "Append Changes to Existing Text" that is available in the Edit Column settings for the Issues Tracking app. I see that you can turn this off, but then you lose the ability to date-stamp each entry. If there
is no good solution, then I think the only alternative would be to turn this off, then just manually add a date to each time.
Word of caution!! If you have a bunch of comments already appended, and THEN you decide to change the option from Append Yes to Append No, it will hide all previous comments. I did this and thought I'd lost them, but when I changed the option back
to Append Changes, they were all still there. I may need to manually cut-paste every single comment out, change to Append No, and then manually past the entire comment thread back in. Will be very tedious for a large issues log.
Thank you.
Bill

Update - The only solution I was able to change to "Append Changes to Existing Text", then do as I dreaded, which was to manually cut and past every comment out then back into the single field. Definitely a good lessons-learned to set the
value to "Append Changes to Existing Text" before starting.

TS1702 How do I resolve error 5011; "Attention: unable to retrieve shared information" on Time Magazine app?

How do I resolve error 5011; "Attention: unable to retrieve shared information" on Time Magazine app?

Dear Goteamjosh,
When you bought a subscription through iTunes you shouldn't have to login seperately using the sign in which asks you for your timesubscription data (this is only when you are a paper subscriber, in that case your iPadsubscription is complimentary). The login should be automatic if your iPad is logged in to iTunes, if not ,you will see the familiar iTunes loginbox in which you use your regular iTunes data. If the app asks you your credentials with a Time-loginbox, then there is still something wrong with the app. As you can see above, a lot of people have been experiencing problems, which they now seem to have resolved (my app is working OK again, no login data requiered).
Update: I just checked, and my app is not working again either! Back to square one. As we can see above, there is some time-app bug (or server problem or whatever). No use trying to solve it ourselves. I am sure they are aware of it and working on it, i guess we just have to be patient (again!).

HT201405 how to solve time machine error-1

how to solve time machine error-1

I checked the pondini fixes and ended up doing the following - in case this could help someone else with OSX Lion and Time Capsule... http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
First, I downloaded and used Airport Utility 5.6 instead of 6.1 - BTW, I had to attempt download and installation THREE times before the program actually installed. Be persistant.
Pondini #5: It's possible some names (of all things!) may be a problem. See item C9. I had to re-name my Mac, Time Capsule, network, etc... to remove all apostrophes and spaces.
Pondini #7: If you have WD SmartWare installed on Lion, it's not compatible, per RoaringApps, and there are reports it can cause this problem as well. Use Western Digital's uninstaller, or delete the app from /Applications and the files com.wdc.WDDMservice.plist and com.wdc.WDSmartWareServer.plist from /Library/LaunchDaemons. There may also be a file in Library/Application Support.
I then had to shut down computer, unplug Time Capsule, unplug modem; plug everything in again, then reboot computer; then had to go to Apple- System Preferences- Network- and reselect my Time Capsule to connect to WiFi again.
Then opened Time Machine preferences again and attempted back up - it worked!

Project time tracking application recommendations?

Hi all,
I'm a freelance worker and am having trouble finding the right time-tracking and project management software "for me."
I'm using Adobe Klok, whose interface and layout I really like, but as it's based on a web app, it's a little cumbersome to use (I like using more keyboard shortcuts and having a more flexible interface).
The dream feature I'm hoping exists out there is something that lets me activate the program with a keystroke (like Spotlight or Quicksilver) to just type in text in order to update whatever I'm doing. I often switch what I'm doing every 10-15 minutes, and updating Klok on what exactly this is so often is irritating and hard to stay up on.
Anyone have any recommendations?
Thanks!
Alec

You should find several such applications by searching at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

After syncing a replacement iPad for the first time, my apps have a "waiting " on the screen I can access them but not on opening screen

After syncing a replacement iPad for the first time, my apps now have a"waiting" message . I can still access from settings but not on the opening app page

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

Time tracking widget/ application??

Hi...I am looking for a time tracking widget or application. I work in a manner similar to an attorney where I track billable hours by assignment. I am not looking for an app that I have to click a timer. Just one to simply enter a date, short description and hours worked. I am looking for a stand alone app that is NOT tied to some online service. Any ideas??

You might want to look at Mac time tracking application OfficeTime (http://www.officetime.net). It has overwhelmingly positive comments on VersionTracker and MacUpdate.

Gnome-keyring-daemon and ssh outside gnome

I had gnome-keyring set up so that on login it unlocks the keyring and reads ssh keys (so that it acts as a ssh-agent), as described here: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/Ssh and here http://live.gnome.org/GnomeKeyring/Pam
This was working great also outside gnome (for instance in xmonad and openbox), up to version 2.24.1. However, after update to 2.26.0-1 this stopped working. It is still OK in gnome, but in other environments (where the only gnome thing that is loaded is gnome-keyring-manager) it doesn't work correctly - it loads, but instead of creating both /tmp/keyring-<sth>/socket and /tmp/keyring-<sth>/socket.ssh it only created the first one, so no ssh support.
Can anyone help a bit with what has changed, or what could have gone wrong?
Thanks.

Well if this is the only way to fix this then it sucks big time, since I don't want to run a huge login manager just to unlock the passwords
adding the content of /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/30-dbus to the ~/.xinitrc works for me.
# launches a session dbus instance
dbuslaunch="`which dbus-launch 2>/dev/null`"
if [ -n "$dbuslaunch" ] && [ -x "$dbuslaunch" ] && [ -z "$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" ]; then
eval `$dbuslaunch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
fi
or sourcing the 30-dbus file in the ~/.xinitrc
source /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/30-dbus
or for all files in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/
source /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*
That's what GDM and KDM do.
Thanks to Jan de Groot for the hint.

Moving apps outside of Newsstand

Is it possible to access The New York Times app outside of Newsstand? I find Newsstand cumbersome (adding extra clicks) and would rather access NYT directly.

If the Desktop folder has a question mark indicating missing or off-line files you should be able to right-click and choose find missing folder. Then navigate to the new folder in users where the images now rest. LR should then be able to re-connect everything.
To avoid this in future simply drag and drop folders within LR. Don’t use your computer operating system otherwise LR knows nothing about what you did.

Tracking App Usage

In iTunes, you can see how many times you've played a particular music track. Is there any way to do something similar with apps? I didn't see it under View Options for the Apps Library, like you do for the Music, Movies, Podcasts, Books, and Tones Libraries. Perhaps "there's an app for that"?

Since iTunes does track how many times I've played a song, be it on my iPod, iPhone, or iPad (after I sync, of course), I was wondering if it had the same capability to log how many times an app had been launched. It shouldn't matter whether or not iTunes itself can launch the app; iTunes logs many song plays that I've NEVER played on iTunes itself.
Since iTunes seemingly can't extract that data from my iPhone and iPad during syncs, I wonder if there is an app that can run in the background and log this data.
