Re(2): [4.1.2] command+M for send to dock?
Received from: jo At: 9:31 am (GMT) on Wed, Feb 5, 2003 Are you saying WindowShadeX is dangerous? Or is the insane ape something else? Most insane apes are fine provided you take steps not to anger them. The primary steps that you should take should be to prevent placing them in situations where hoards of journalists take powerful flash photos of them; this especially dangerous should the ape be chained to some sort of podium-like construction as part of a vaudeville show. Secondly, you should prevent the ape from seeing any dramatically-designed architecture that might remind it of geological features from its native habitat. Shoud the ape glimpse such aritecture it will almost certainly attempt to climb up it and fight a climactic battle -- with doomed results. Hope this helps.

Re: Mail Auto Launch
Received from: Wayne Brissette At: 2:06 pm (GMT) on Thu, Jan 30, 2003 Are you using iCal to send email reminders? I think it only looks to Mail.app for help! Unless you use the modified scripts I created. Wayne; I tried those scripts, and iCal launched PM right enough but the email never goes out because it doesn't get addressed. Am I missing something obvious? Do i need to personalise the script? Cheers Rick --- G4/500 MHz (DP) :: OS 10.2.3 :: PM 4.1 :: 3 pane mode :: 768 MB RAM www.sharkattack.co.uk
Re: attachment folder
Received from: Norman Kronenberg At: 2:25 pm (GMT) on Mon, Feb 3, 2003 If so, do I have to leave a file named attachments there? Bear in mind also that you can specify what folder PM uses for attachments; if you'd prefer it to place all attachments on the desktop, or in a folder called Blue Abstraction and Precise-Seven then you can do so -- set it in preferences. PM just starts with its own default attachment folder called, prosaically, Attachments. Rick --- G4/500 MHz (DP) :: OS 10.2.3 :: PM 4.1 :: 3 pane mode :: 768 MB RAM www.sharkattack.co.uk
Re: scrips doubles
Received from: Marlyse Comte At: 5:16 pm (GMT) on Thu, Jan 30, 2003 Why would you 'urge me' to leave the scripts in the content folder? Because there are scripts I really never use and they clutter the script pulldown plus they do not sort with the other scripts (so I have an a-z first sort of scripts from the package folder plus an a-z sort of my own scripts... . Also, I often like to modify scripts slightly and isn't that easier if the scripts are not hidden in a package? There is a specific advantage to leaving the 'default' scripts inside the package and using the Scripts folder in your PM user folder for 3rd party or modified scripts. The advantage is that when you update PM to 4.2 or whatever, all the CTM-supplied default scripts will be replaced along with it (handy if CTM has amended them for the new version) and your own 3rd party ones are left untouched. Hence Wayne's advice. There is no technical reason (in terms of PM's performance or stability) why you should not throw away the default ones in the PM package, but when you upgrade to the next version of PM you'll have to throw them away again, is all. Hope this helps. Rick --- G4/500 MHz (DP) :: OS 10.2.3 :: PM 4.1 :: 3 pane mode :: 768 MB RAM www.sharkattack.co.uk
address synch issues
I've finally got around to putting all my addresses from various applications, notebooks, filofaxes and scraps of paper into the OSX Address Book app so that it can dole them out to other apps as a central repository of contact information. I synchronised it with PM's address book (hereafter referred to as the PMAB to avoid confusion) -- the best way seemed to be to make sure that all my email addresses were in place in Address Book.app and then to delete all the addresses from the PMAB prior to the synch. All the info from the apple Address Book was duly imported into the Apple Address Book Contacts folder in the PMAB and all seemed well; however, as soon as I returned to the Apple address book I discovered that a whole bunch of contacts had been deleted -- presumably because I had neglected to turn off the synchronisation in the other direction (ie. PMAB affecting the Apple Address Book). However, I'd not deleted any contacts from the PMAB, so I don't know why they were removed from the Apple one. Since I'd spent most of the day entering this information I was, to say the least, irked. Since I've deselected all the options that let PM have an effect upon the Apple Address Book (in other words, any such changes must come from the Apple app, not PM) I've not suffered the problem again, but it does indicate that all is not completely well in the synch room. Also, despite having the Open contacts in Apple's Address Book by default preference seleted, PM will not do so. Clicking a new contact in the PMAB gives an error alert: Database error 7 (Record not found in DB) in 9 (DBGetRecord). Low level error 0 Performing a low level database rebuild causes PM to think that it has never been synchronised, and when I re-synch it I got a second Apple Address Book Contacts folder in the PMAB; this problem persists. Anyone have similar experiences or wisdom to impart? Anyone from CTM care to comment? Is this a known bug or not?
