SOFTWARE OF THE DAY - SYNCTOGETHER & GALERIE

Hi All, Key Combination of the Day Command-Shift-4 then Space Bar Pressing -Shift-4 (Command-Shift-4) then pressing the Space Bar changes the pointer to a camera. Place the camera over any visible window (the window can be partially hidden) and click the mouse button. A picture of the window is taken and saved as a file on the Desktop named Picture n .png (OS X Tiger) or Picture n .pdf (OS X Panther) where n is a number. Holding down the Control key before clicking the mouse button places the picture in the Clipboard instead of creating a file. Shareware of the Day: SyncTogether - synchronizes contacts, calendars, bookmarks and other important information for individuals and groups using multiple Macs. Two or More Macs SyncTogether is perfect for individuals who move between two or more Macs, such as a notebook and a desktop. It easily keeps your contacts, calendars, notes, Apple Mail account settings and more in sync between your Macs, giving you access to your information when you need it the most. SyncTogether can run automatically, or whenever you want with the click of a button. It's easy to set up and use across a local area network, since it uses Bonjour to auto- detect other Macs, and support for IP addressing provides additional flexibility. SyncTogether doesn't require a dot Mac account, which makes it an inexpensive option for Mac syncing, and it provides secure data transfers to keep your information private. Family Members At home, SyncTogether will make Address Book and iCal work for you in new ways. SyncTogether's selective syncing feature lets you choose individual Address Book groups and iCal calendars to sync with other family members' Macs. Sync a common list of addresses without sharing your entire contact list. Share individual iCal calendars to keep track of family events and schedules. SyncTogether allows each user to add or modify information, so Mom can add weekend plans from her Mac, and Dad and the kids will see the new plans following the next sync. SyncTogether can even synchronize information between multiple accounts on the same Mac, which is great for families that share a single computer. Workgroups & Teams Traditionally, workgroup calendaring software for the Mac has been expensive, requires a server and is difficult to set up. SyncTogether gives you many of the benefits of groupware at a fraction of the cost. With it, you can keep project schedules, task lists, notes and more in sync between team members. When the project manager updates the schedule in iCal and syncs, everyone can see the changes, yet your personal agenda, tasks and memos stay private. SyncTogether supports up to three users with a single license, and each additional license adds three more users, so it's inexpensive to cover your entire team. Because SyncTogether shares information from Mac OS X's built-in applications, there's nothing new to learn. Road Warriors If you travel for work, then you know how difficult it can be to keep information synchronized with your staff at the office. SyncTogether eliminates that difficulty by syncing your important information with one or more Macs at the office. Choose which Address Book groups and iCal calendars to sync, and SyncTogether makes it happen. SyncTogether allows your assistant or co- workers to update contacts and add agenda items for you, saving you time and letting you focus on business. iCal time zone settings are preserved, so a 1:00 PM conference call in San Diego is indicated properly as a 3:00 PM event when you're in Chicago. Now you can benefit from groupware features without the expense of a dedicated server.
