OPML interop
5/25/2022
For multiple platforms, NoteCase Pro also imports OPML.

I don't think an updated Windows version is ever coming. I emailed Alfons a while ago about this. He explained that he does not see sufficient demand for a Windows version to warrant further developme...
Thank you for the information about version 6. I have not taken a look at it yet and have a (perhaps stupid) question. Can the pdf with annotations be viewed as a document withing Zotero? If so, can i...

What?
Have not tried this with InfoQube, but it is capable of doing almost anything.
RightNote does this with the added benefit of indexing several common file types (docx, xlsx, pdf). TreePad also did thi...

MyBase 8

MyBase is now at version 8. I have not tested this version (I expect it is largely similar to previous iterations), but noticed this addition.

IQ takes time to learn. It is well worth the investment though.

This is reminiscent of Brainstorm on Windows. Hoisting the item so you just the item and its children.

Uhhhhh. How many groups of people can you denigrate in one post? This is really inappropriate anywhere, and especially offensive and unwanted here.

In XMind, select the node you want to link. CTRL + H. Then in the left side of the dialog, click topic and choose the topic to link to.

The big one is filtering. You cannot filter on words contained in the notes yet. This will be restored eventually. I wish template, while improved, would be more robust (like in Ultra Recall). On a po...
Sarah, Info Select had some unique abilities and infuriating quirks. I do miss it though, but not for email. It was largely replaced by Ultra Recall and InfoQube. My email has always been handled by T...

Nope. I've given up hope.

I also have a soft spot for Info Select but have moved on. The last fully functional version was 2007 but I purchased 11 in case it offered better features and updated functions. 11 has not been updat...
PDF File Mgmt. Question

Both are good products for the individual user. Kofax acquired PowerPDF from Nuance and with the exception of portfolios, I have always been very satisfied. Porfoilios stopped working with the demise ...
BrainStorm? You cannot do anything but plain text, but it does have some clever and useful features.

(The)BrainDead? (Hopefully not yet)

I'm afraid I cannot bear this thread anymore as it induces flashbacks to my college days in the '60s. I am hearing the pontifications of friends on LSD and amphetamines.

Another option is MailStore. The home version is free.

Ultra Recall gets my vote too. I have used it in the past to archive vast amounts of email and the occasional drag/drop I needed for projects I was working on. Search and retrieval is versatile and ro...
Thank you for this. Some I know and do, some I know and don't do (probably should re-evaluate) and some I never thought about. So now I have a video to watch and must set aside some time to consider y...
