Yes, I also remember odd things like this when I used MagicDisc, I just don't remember the details. I liked the functionality of the software very much, but it did have these weird behavior issues. Just like Daemon, I thought it worked great functionally, but it felt like it got its fingers into too many things on my computer.MagicISO gets bashed a lot around the internet. However, hardly anyone says why it's so bad. They just say it sucks. And I'm like, "But why??" Anyway...this WinCDemu is working well. I'll check out DVDFab, I had never heard of that one. I've tried MagicISO...I don't remember how it was. I think it was fine, but I went with PowerISO for some reason. Geez...these names...MagicISO, PowerISO, UltraISO...I need to do a Super(boyac)ISO.In my case, it's because MagicDisc blew up Disk Manager on my old XP machine and I couldn't even uninstall it.-superboyac (July 13, 2011, 04:50 PM)-jpprater (July 15, 2011, 08:37 AM)
Yes! It would be great for something like that. But also consider this, with treesheets you can setup a very similar situation rather easily. The only thing you might miss is the popup window. But you gain the ability to have a couple of extra hierarchical levels, and a more flexible layout. What's common in both is the grid structure, but in Pigeonhole, you are limited to the default setup. In treesheets, you can tweak the grid to your heart's content.Pigeonhole is nice. But unlike the other two I mentioned, I don't really see it as having a lot of future potential. It's a good, simple application for holding some notes. With IQ and TS, they have this ability to really grow with the application, and they are flexible enough to transform according to your personal mindset. I really hope the developers continue to fine tune and work on these applications.-superboyac (July 14, 2011, 04:46 PM)
I was thinking Pigeonhole would be ideal for a quick reference manual. I'm imagining setting it up for all the major commands in a given piece of software. Might be fun to do it for bash for example.

WinCDEmu is what I use. Double click an .iso to mount. I can even use my Tray app. When I "open" the CD tray for that drive, it unmounts it. Neat.Glad to hear. I'm also happy with it so far (5 minutes using it!). As long as it doesn't disconnect on bootup, or bug out, I'm fine. I know Daemon is very reliable and all, but it has one of those installations that are very complicated and makes you wonder why such a little program has such an involved install/uninstall process.-MilesAhead (July 13, 2011, 03:21 PM)
I felt the same way when I saw it. It really has something great going on. Another awesome thing about it is how small, fast, responsive it is.I'm sure not too many people are terribly interested in it.-superboyac (July 12, 2011, 10:26 AM)
That one's new to me -- and I'm definitely interested. I've never found a good planning tool that worked the way my mind does. Not sure this is it but it looks like it's well worth a try -- so thanks, Mahesh2k!-oblivion (July 12, 2011, 02:27 PM)
The more I read about G+ heavy-handedness, the more I think I'm gonna build my own if I ever feel the desperate need to be part of a "social" network.I agree 100% with this. I'm starting to look into ways to use the internet as a connection only, but have private networks setup for myself and friends. That is, all the content is on our own servers, and it's private and just meant for us. Chatting, everything included. I just see no reason why we have to continue to push for having all our software run in browsers. It was so much better (in my opinion) when we had servers and clients for all this stuff. I'm going to go back to that.-40hz (July 12, 2011, 10:04 AM)
OK...I'm going to have to pick your brain on your preferred backup procedure one day...Nightly backups churned on for months until somebody needed one of the year X records that weren't there anymore.-Stoic Joker (July 11, 2011, 02:38 PM)
One of the reasons why I try never to do incremental backups any more. I'll do full backups, image snapshots - or sync directories. But no incrementals. All they ever seem to do is increase the potential points of failure along with the likelihood of not being able to restore a backup.
re: your client
Eek! indeed...
One more reason why it's so important to actually look very carefully at those backup logs each day. (Not that I or anybody else I know ever seems to do it religiously.
)

Treesheets allow grid format, merging of cells for notes. I hope i got your question right.Yeah, I thought Treesheets would be the answer initially also. But while it's great for outlining, it can't do grid layouts at the moment. Grid layouts would mean being able to merge and split cells in a pure, direct manner. Treesheets is still all about hierarchies and nesting, more so that merging and splitting. I still think it can do the job, but not as easily as I'd like. But yeah, I think it comes closest.-mahesh2k (July 11, 2011, 12:09 PM)
NZBMatrix subscription = $10 for 10 years of nzb listings that are monitored and moderated which gets rid of many of the viruses and password protected nonsensecthorpe, how do you feel NZBMatrix compares to Newzbin?
Binsearch for stuff that doesn't meet nzbmatrix's standards if necessary-cthorpe (July 05, 2011, 11:50 PM)
Came across this list of InDesign/InCopy plugins earlier today and I thought it might help solve some of these issues:Thanks Oshyan! That emcatalog sounds just right. Boy, it's expensive ($800), but may be well worth it.

In particular Em Software with their product InCatalog (DB integration with InDesign):

Here's the Oops!Backup link :Thanks Armando, I'll have to read that. Yeah, I'm struggling with the same issues. I'm surprised about Oops because it seems like they have good customer support and are diligent with addressing issues. But I trust you more than the other stuff I read!
I re-read parts of the thread again and it certainly didn't convince me to try oops again. They'd really need to work on some of the mentioned problems... For smallerish files, it should be okay though.

It's interesting for me to see how I tried so many options during the last few years and just went back to my original "no fuss" solution -- full proof, simple, efficient. The only I added to the mix are online syncing ingredients like SpiderOak (not always completely reliable unfortunately...).
I don't think I'll come back to that "backup struggle" until next summer, when I'll need extra storage... Way too time consuming... Need to get some stuff done!!!!-Armando (June 21, 2011, 03:53 PM)
^If you combine text, XML, and a database haven't you just created another wiki?have I? I don't know! I've never understood how the wiki works. What I was picturing was inputting all the elements (text, graphics) in the database, then export it to xml and tag it with the appropriate styles. Then, import that into Indesign and fine-tune it while being able to preview it. I really feel this is the best method for the way I work. if wiki does this easily, I'm all for it!-40hz (June 21, 2011, 09:42 AM)
