What "ToDo" application (with "folders") do you recommend?

I am an experienced user of the Communicator 9500 Phone from Nokia.
It looks somewhat clumsy but it is highly efficient to use for business.
The Agenda application is especially well designed. It includes a "ToDo" section, which can be subdivided in Main Topics, kind of folders. Eg "home", "Work", "Car", "Holidays". In one view you can visualise many items related to your car, or to your Work Project 1, Your holidays, and so on. And it is fully integrated into the Calendar app.
I am now the proud and confused owner of an IPhone 4 but the apps provided with the phone are for the casual user, managing a couple of events per week, and not for someone managing a couple of hundred todo reminders spread over 12 main topics. I am so not convinced by the Agenda that I only use the IPhone to...phone and continue to use the Nokia for "serious" purposes.
Obviously I cannot continue to do this.
What application should I seek to manage these todos?
What Agenda application should I seek, in replacement of Apple's Agenda, to manage these ToDos WITHIN the agenda?
Your advice would be appreciated.

OmniFocus is probably the most heavy-duty to-do app out there, with iphone, ipad, and mac clients, and good support for different folders/contexts. Warning: pricing and ease-of-use are commensurate with the heavy-duty. Free trial on the mac.

  • What wired keyboard with trackpad do you recommend?

    My wife would like to put her MB Pro on a stand and attach a wired keyboard with built-in trackpad. She wants WIRED, not wireless. Has anyone used a non-Apple keyboard like this that they recommend? I am thinking the key arrangement might be tricky.

    There are no keyboards on the market that have built-in trackpads with the capabilities of the MBP's built-in trackpad.
    Why does your wife want a wired keyboard? Has she ever used an Apple wireless one?
    I recomend the Apple wireless keyboard and Magic Trackpad without reservation or qualification. I've been using mine for a year now with my late-2008 unibody MBP, and haven't had a bit of trouble with them at any time. The Magic Trackpad works exactly the same as the built-in trackpad, so that when I pick up my machine to use away from my office, I don't have any adjustment to make. And the wireless keyboard has exactly the same feel as the MBP's, so there's no adjustment to make there either.
    Your wife should really try these things out.

  • What is the best set up you recommend ?

    Hi guys, I had a quick question, I want to know the best set up you recommend. I attend a small church and they have four wireless mic and one mic that is not wireless, majority of the time they just use the one mic that has a cord. They want me to help them upgrade their audio system, they currently have a 6 channel amp and some great sounding speakers. I was going to suggest they get a imac and we run garage band and either use their current amp or get a new inexpensive mixing board, with their current amp or the mixing board I know we will need some type of 3.5mm adapter to plug it into the computer. We would like to record the church sermons as well as load all the church music that are on CD's into the mac and make play list and play those from i-tunes. What do you guys suggest ? I am very familiar with mac and I do a lot of video with FCP and motion, but not much with Audio, I do know soundtrack pro, would that be better to use ? I would like a setup where we can do as much as possible from the computer like open and close mics and adjust mic levels, if not then I can do that from the amp or mixing board with no problem, thanks

    What you appear to be describing is sending a stereo track to GB on a Mac using the Mac's built-in input.
    There are three issues I see with your system.
    One you are limiting it to a stereo track. Using the Mac's built-in input with a 3.5mm plug. And have no way to control individual mic levels from the Mac.
    However, you could have the possibility of recording multiple tracks, individual level control and ability to mix those tracks inside of GB or another DAW and a much better sounding recording by adding an audio interface to your setup. Which I believe is the missing ingredient to reach you goals.
    Something like a Presonus interface with 8 mic pre's should work fine.
    So you would run all church mic's into the interface and record inside of GB and run the analog output from the interface into the amp. Amp to speakers.
    However, although I wouldn't have a problem with that setup...you are relying on hard drives and software and a human running it...so there is a dependability factor to consider comparatively.
    You may be fine just getting a 2 track digital recorder hooked up to the output of the mic preamp you already have. And transporting that to the Mac later....?
    Dunno what you needs are exactly so I can't say....

  • What team-based development tool can you recommend?

    Our team works on a Windows 2000 platform and an Oracle 8i database. Can anyone recommend a good team-based development tool that we can use with our JDeveloper? What about tools like webDAV, Rational ClearCase? Are they easy to use and easy to deploy? What else is out there that already works for you?
    Thanks.

  • What cloud back up services do you recommend for our new Mac?

    What cloud back up services work best with an iMac?

    Without a good first and second or third backup plan or regimen in place,
    before cloud backup, you still could lose most functional computer use.
    The internet cloud is OK if you can access it, quickly & efficiently.
    If you can count on that, then you are among a minority worldwide.
    •Back up Mac Hard drive...
    https://www.apple.com/support/backup/
    While the basics nearby are good, the off-site copy or cloud is a plus
    if you travel to & from an office, or several locations and need access
    to information, while knowing the primary devices and the media are
    also backed up in triplicate, across different media & devices.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4908
    A quality externally enclosed hard disk drive setup for use with a
    full system clone, to boot & run a Mac from a copy, is a fine idea.
    {carbon copy cloner - bombich software? one of the better bets}
    So far, in my several years experience with computers, I'd rather have
    access to the backup hardware devices and perform manual ones, too
    than rely on some remote servers, over thousands of miles of distance.
    Helps to also have a backup computer, a duplicate to run the clone, etc.
    Perhaps someone will recommend one of the advertised carbonite or
    other brands, however I fail to be impressed by gadgets & gimmicks...
    Though some may be fun, I don't have time for fun or wasted expense.
    Some other users who contribute here may have fast internet access
    of a reliable nature, and have committed a larger portion of their digital
    live's work to the 'cloud' but from my experience, clouds are weather.
    You can dress for it, marginally predict it; & find a dry/warm place to wait.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Applications with folders

    Hi Guys,
    All our company's applications are under the root of the Applications section. We have different offices that have their own applications, and the only way so other offices don't see each others applications is the use of security scopes. From an admin perspective
    it is very hard for us to see what applications belongs to which office. We have started using Administrative Categories, but we prefer folder structures. Is there a way to hide the actual folder for these offices just like using security scopes? Or even pre-fill
    the Administrative Category when the office creates an application  like a templates?
    Thanks in advance

    Another workarround I often use are to use categories combined with saved searches.
    Then you just select the saved search called "Office X", and you'll only see the applications you need.

  • I need a step motor and controller compatible with LabView Can you recommend any

    I need a step motor compatible with LabView and I thought i would check with you before i moved forward in my experiment

    Dear chapbs,
    I've attached a sample cart below to show you the components for a possible setup of your system. Keep in mind that whatever stepper drive you purchased would power your motor. If you go ahead with the purchase of a controller & drive, I would highly recommend contacting NI to insure that you purchased the correct accessory components and cables to connect & power the components. I hope the  sample cart is helpful. I created it  by browsing ni.com, adding items to my cart, and then saving the cart to an excel file. Please post back if you have additional questions.
    Best Regards,
    ~NH

  • What wired 2-button mouse do you recommend to replace Mighty Mouse?

    I’m looking for a wired 2-button mouse to replace the wired Mighty Mouse I got with my new 20” iMac purchased a year ago. I will appreciate any recommendations for a comfortable trouble-free mouse. Before I switched from a Windows machine to the iMac I used a Logitech MouseMan Wheel that was not only reliable but very comfortable to use. I’d like to find something comparable for use with the iMac.

    Wow, that was fast. I can't find the button to click on for "helpful" for your post. Where did the button go? It did work on some earlier posts from you, but not all. Anyway, it begins to feel like we're almost out of the woods!
    So a broadband router it is. I have zero motivation to try routing between IP subnets, happily.
    Nice to have affirmation of the RV0041. It seemed to be the highest level before jumping all the way to Cisco. Yeah, the Telenet firewall configuration requirement on the Zywall 5 was something to choke on. Oh—I did find one review on it. The writer, an IT tech, emphasized in all capitals that a user has to have extensive knowledge of configuring these things BEFORE getting a Zywall. So the Zywall seems to also fit squarely into the IT pro department. On the RV0041, I thought the Gigabit switch feature was very fine.
    Actually I have the software firewall "NetBarrier" installed already. Kind of sounds as if a lot of the functions of a network appliance are largely duplicated by NetBarrier. It's given me alerts in real time for attempted port scanning, for example. I do want fast page loading, so the performance lag using a network security device seems like a marked disadvantage.
    Would a combination of NetBarrier and the RV0041 largely provide equivalent protection compared to a network security device? I'm willing to live with less protection to an extent to avoid slowing things down.
    Once again, many thanks indeed

  • What MacBook Pro with Retina Display is recommended for college students?

    I'm trying to decide which MacBook Pro with Retina Display to buy before I go off to college. I want to get the 2.6 GHz, 16 GB of RAM, and just the 512 GB of Flash. But I don't know which one is better for a business major. The 2.6 GHz Pro with Retina, or the 2.3 GHz Retina. My concers are the space, and this computer is suppossed to last me 4 years.

    I'm a college student as well and I'm going to be a sophomore engineering major. I'm currently sitting on a 2007 white MacBook. Yes, it is from the stone age. However, over 5 years, I have only used 280 GB of space. I'm going to order a 2.7GHz, 16GB, 512 SSD R-MBP this weekend, in the hopes that this, too will last me about 5 years. Honestly, if you have the money to drop, I would buy the fastest possible configuration, 16GB ram, and a 512 SSD so that you can comfortably use your computer for another 4-5 years. My white MacBook served quite well for 5 years. The thing about newer technology is that it may last longer. A Core2Duo processor from 07 is nothing compared to Ivy Bridge now. So I would max out the configuration if I were you. By 2017, Intel is going to be making processors that will make this R-MBP look like crap, so consider "future-proofing" your computer for the long run.

  • What is it with BT when you ask a question? !

    Do BT not wish to keep their BB / Phone subscribers?
    BB up for renewal, asked for a MAC code, duly sent with an 'offer' to stay, but this was less than others had been offered recently, so emailed back saying this, and could BT offer anyhting close?  done this twice now, no answer!  so assume they don't really want me, so now looking at Virgin / Post Office / Orange to swap to, I've got 14 days left on my MAC code,

  • What to do with iTunes when you get another iPod?

    My daughter has an iPod mini that is completely filled up. For her birthday, she want to get a new 30G iPod.
    The thing I am wondering about it whether or not she will be able to use her current iTunes library with the new iPod. I would not want to see her start from scratch, as that would just take up more room on her hard drive.
    Can you use iTunes with more than one iPod?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Actually an iPod can be used on multiple computers and multiple iPods can be used on a single computer so you'll be fine when you get your new one. You may not want to do anything too complicated but there's a lot more about it here: "How to use multiple iPods with one computer" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300432
