Comment on Copernic Desktop Search: Great for Outlook Users by John

John — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 17:00:49 +0000

Hey nice post! I agree too, Copernic really improved! But I work with another plugin, called Lookeen! http://www.lookeen.net
Primarly it is a Outlook search tool, but also a Desktop search, has also the same features as Copernic! I like Lookeen really much and the best of all is already compatible with Windows 7!
It isn´t for free, but I think it is worth its money!

Comment on ACT’s Tabs: Change the Color and Font by John Briscoe

John Briscoe — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 14:43:52 +0000

All of a sudden on my ACT 2007 the top line has a black background as does the headings such as file, edit, view etc. I can not see them against the black background but when I run my curser over them they are grey and I can see them. How do I change the back ground color on that top section?

Hey Tony:

are you going to be on the blitz call the 24th? I clicked on your name on the list for the call, visited your website, and went back to mark you as someone i’d like to talk to, and your name was gone.

if you’re not going to be on the blitz call, let’s talk offline. i’m interested in your work. i’m a Mac, but much of what you do is translatable pretty easily I think. (I think.)

let me know please.

best, shirley

Comment on Backing up ACT with Carbonite by Judy Reamer

I use Act! also. I have Carbonite. Does Carbonite actually back up the whole program. If the computer totally died, would Carbonite have the entire software program to install it on a new computer or is it just backingup up the files?
I put my ACT! files on a memory stick and realized that downloading the files to an extra computer didn’t work as the program hadn’t been installed on that computer.

Would the same thing happen with Carbonite in that I would get the files back but I couldn’t open the contact list, etc. because the software needed to be installed first on the new computer?

Thanks for any help,
Judy

Yeap… works fine until it doesn’t. What if your office is in the US, you are in Europe and your office computer crashes? And…, of course, there is no one there to restart this darn machine.

You should also use the scheduler to keep multiple backups of #ACT!.
