On the other hand, the way we use software and the internet has drastically changed in the past few years. One one hand, it is a common business strategy for commercial software companies to restrict compatibility and force customers to buy their own stuff, so it's always a good idea to investigate a commercial product's interoperability before purchasing it.

I brought this same issue up on another thread, and it is precisely why I no longer use Omnifocus on my Mac or iPhone (despite all the $$ I paid for both!)īut I do think both sides of this argument have good points.

Given that Outlook/Exchange are so heavily prevalent and many mac and/or iphone users still have to interact with them, any hope of a syncing method just for Outlook tasks? I have OmniFocus on my Mac and would purchase the OmniFocus for iphone as well if there was a way to do syncing with outlook tasks.

In our scenario, tasks get assigned to me via outlook and I'd like to get them into omnifocus where I can make them work better for me (I'm sure if you've ever used the tasks area of outlook, you're aware that it's pretty abysmal, lol). Because of this, it would make my life tremendously easier if I could at minimum have a method (doesn't even have to be automagic) to sync OmniFocus with my outlook tasks.

I use mac, windows and iphone and my company is (like many) a PC outfit that makes heavy use of Exchange and Outlook. No desire to get into the mac/pc debate here and I agree that it's pretty unrealistic to expect omnifocus to sync to all platforms and calendaring/todo products.

Feel free to post a picture of a box for a typical piece of Windows software that specifically says 'will not work on a Mac' :) No, it does not say 'will not work on a Windows PC or a Linux PC' anywhere. OmniFocus synchronizes wirelessly with OmniFocus for Mac, either locally over Wi-Fi (with pushed updates) or remotely through the cloud (using MobileMe or a WebDAV server). and synchronizes with your Mac via MobileMe or WebDAV servers.' Third paragraph in the description on the iTunes store page includes this text: If I went to a Microsoft site (or any other vendor that offers products for more than one OS) and contemplated purchasing a piece of software, I'd be reading very carefully to make sure it supported my intended platform before clicking the Spend button. A task list manager that will only sync with a MAC - worthless. Wish I had read that on the application description.anywhere. So the only way I can use this, outside of the iphone micro-interface, is by buying a mac, right? New: Set attachMailToOFTask to 3 to include outlook:// style links (see OutlookURLHandler)Īs said before, most of it relies on the work and all credit goes to Rainer & LuMe96.Obviously we can use the program on the iphone, otherwise it would be utterly useless.Changed: Task title now formatted as Sender : Subject.New: Option to trim subject line by keywords (e.g.New: Option to trim message by number of characters.New: Option to expand note in QuickEntry (expandNotes).one task per message) (multiSelectMultiTask) New: Option to switch between the way multiple selected messages are handled (e.g.New: Option to switch between file attachment and direct data-directory link to reduce library size (attachMailToOFTask).This idea together with the fact that my Things-digression didn’t quite work out started a new round of refactoring of the Outlook-to-OmniFocus AppleScript … (Note: This will break if you move messages between accounts, e.g. The available solutions work around this by finding the message directly inside the Outlook data directory and linking to it. One major difference between OF & Things is the inability of Things to add file attachments. I recently tried to work with Things instead of OmniFocus, and thus trying the available AppleScripts for Things as well.
