Today, I would like to officially launch restoroot.org, and it brings an update for OMiC and a piece of new software.
It also brings this blog. I would like to share here with you more about mac relevant things than I can write on my other blog on java.net.
Now to the new application, currently it addresses two issues:
1. When you come from Microsoft Windows, you know and love this “Map Network Drive” Feature. On Mac OS X you must always mount manually the share, and when the server gets down, you must manually mount it again.
It is even uglier when you use a laptop, then with every location change you must redo the work.
2. Power of Airport and Bluetooth. Again, you use a Laptop to work, and at home you connect over Airport and use your bluetooth mouse, but at the company you use ethernet and so turn airport power off. And in the train or the coffee with the too small table for a mouse, you turn again airport and bluetooth off to save battery.
Currently, it is in beta phase, so please check it out and give me feedback.
Thanks for the OMiC plugin for Mac Mail. It makes working with Outlook so much easier. I’ve been able to receive and respond to multiple appointments without having to add them into iCal myself.
The only thing I found that does not work is “All Day” events. When an event is mark All Day, It does not show in iCal as an All Day event. It will show as an appointment from 12:00 am to 12:00 am. Because the event is in a different time zone, it will show on the wrong day.
I look forward to the next update. thank you.
Thanks a lot for OMiC! Those who work and interact with Microsoft-dependant people will be very grateful!
Thanks for updating OMIC to the present level. It nows seems to work well with Mac OS 10.4.8. Not sure if it was my OS config or OMIC, but previous installs did not work. Since this one is, I have purchased. Will try out your new ProLocation software application.
OMiC is very nice.
Have you considered adding functionality to OMiC such that when you accept a calendar invitation, it is sent back to the Outlook user in a manner they can see in the meeting that you have accepted, rather then as a simple email? I suspect this would go out as some sort of vcal formatted message…
thanks for OMiC big help for winmail.dat.
Any suggestions for fixing winmail.dat in entoruage.
thanks
*applauds*
At first, I was skeptical of the application and its claims. Now I am convinced. This is a great product, especially for someone like myself who uses both Outlook on Windows and iMail for the Mac. All checks out with the oulook calendaring and contacts. Great work and I look forward to any future updates as well.
OMIC is GREAT! you should knock Apple;s door
In addition to writing some cool software… you also happen to be a very cute developer!
