Virus Scan for Rainlendar 2 Pro

Brian Warren Is Rainlendar portable (meaning can be placed on and run from a flash drive)? I'm using a Portable Thunderbird beta right now but it's not updated very often and some of the functions don't work well. Thanks.

Kimmo Pekkola Yes, portable installation is possible. All you need to do is to create an empty settings file to the Rainlendar's installation folder in the flash drive and all the data will be stored to there. You can find more details from the FAQ: http://www.rainlendar.net...id=26#faq2

Mike G Rainlendar is a well-designed and nice looking app. It is very close to being useful for me as an alarm/reminder. I hope you will consider two small enhancements. I simply need a message to pop up every hour (not a task or event).

If Rainlendar could add hourly and minutely recurrence and optionally pop up (display) the notes section it would add important new functionality with little effort! Is this possible for a future version? :)

Jun 16 2009 at 1:09am Copy Link

Kimmo Pekkola Hourly recurrence would require quite many internal changes to the application so it probably isn't going to be implemented any time soon. However a simple alarm which would just pop up on certain intervals should be relatively easy to implement as an addon. I could consider doing something like that (although I cannot make any promises).

Mike G Kimmo, thanks for the quick response and considering the possibility of an alarm than can pop up at intervals. I would use it to play a chime every hour and display an inspirational message or teaching of the day. It is a powerful technique for change. Other applications can do this, but they don't look as good or function as well as Rainlendar :)

Sheila C. An interval alarm would be very useful for me, too - great way to remind oneself to get up and stretch or refocus the eyes to avoid strain.

d t This calendar has a feature that my wife really likes. She can set it to display the upcoming events for as long as she wants (in her case 30 days in advance).

Is there an easy way to import events from a spreadsheet or a csv file? I have roughly 100 birthdays, anniversaries etc to input, and using the New Event screen is pretty tedious. I entered a few and exported them, but I don't think it would be easy to build that format by hand, plus it seemed to have a GUID field and a few other fields I don't have values for.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Mary Wilson I have used the light version for some time. What is the main difference between this and the Light Version?

Jun 20 2009 at 12:54am Copy Link

Kimmo Pekkola The Google Calendar support works both ways so you are able to modify and create new events to Google Calendar from Rainlendar. Offline access to the network calendars is supported too. All network traffic to and from the Google's server is done through the encrypted https protocol.

CSV import is planned but not implemented yet so currently you have to convert the csv file to iCalendar format before it can be imported into Rainlendar.

The main difference between the pro and lite version is that the pro version includes support for Microsoft Outlook and network calendars.

Peter Wallace Greetings,

I just purchased this today - and the working with Outlook - WOW - easy and fast and it works - very nice.

I did have a question - is there a way to make it work as a Gadget for Vista / Windows 7's Sidebar? It makes 100% sense and it would seem to be a very straightforward proposition, or perhaps it already has that ability. If so please let me know.

Regards,

Jon E Hi,
in a previous post you said "The license is personal so yes, you can use it in multiple computers."

I travel and stay a couple of weeks in each place so I have computers in different locations. I don't use them at the same time since they are in different locations. They use Ubuntu Linux except for one that uses Windows. Can I use the calendar on all of them for one license? Will it update f.ex. with Google calendar so that one entry in one computer will show up on the other computer although they were not online at the same time. (E.g. will Google transfer that?)

Kimmo Pekkola The tasks are kept after they have been completed so you can go back and read them if you wish. However the task list is not really meant to be a diary so I'm not sure how well it would work for such purpose.

It's possible to hide the calendar where the tasks are stored so that they are not directly visible on your desktop. There is no password protection though so if you share your Windows or Mac account with anyone they have access to all events and tasks stored to Rainlendar.

Kimmo Pekkola The default date format depends on which language you are using (Options-Language). You can set a custom format from Options-Advanced-Date format (check the Rainlendar's help for supported formatting codes) but note that this does not affect the date control in the event editor since it's native operating system component.

Kimmo Pekkola You should be able to do that but it requires some additional work.

Michael R. Is it possible to define (one or more) countdown-timers, which counts down to a specific time?

This would be very nice, e.g. with ebay-auctions, etc.

In this context, it would be also very useful to allow to enter the date/time for a local time-zone or a standard-time (EST, PST): Quite often one finds certain date/times in the internet and it is quite uncomfortable to find out the local time. If the countdown end-time would be possible to be entered not only in this local time of the computer, this would be very helpful.

So is this yet possible with Rainlendar or do you plan to implement this yet?

Thanks a lot...

Kimmo Pekkola There is an addon for the default Shadow4 skin which includes a countdown widget: http://www.rainlendar.net...=6&id=6164

Rainlendar can also automatically count the number of days to a given event but the resolution is a full day so it's useful mainly for birthdays and such.

Kimmo Pekkola Rainlendar can be used as a standalone calendar application but it is not meant to replace Outlook since there e.g. is no support for email or contacts.

Rainlendar has a Manager view where you can very quickly search events by any field. Currently Rainlendar separates only tasks and events so you need to use the categories if you have multiple types of events and you want the to have a different appearance in the calendar.

I can't say if every single recurrence option that Outlook has are supported but at least the mostly used ones should be.

The 64-bit Windows 7 is supported by Rainlendar.

But I miss a holyday feature: I want to be informed, if there a national holyday. - This can vary from state to state and country to country of course, that is why Rainlendar might not support such a thing. That is why I am asking...

Also: for a real calendar app, data from the outlook calendar should be retrieved. Nothing is worse than adding events to different calendars (except someone wants to strictly separate private and business events).

Software Guy Rainlendar is the gold standard for desktop calendars. Nearly everyone I know uses the free version and is very happy with it. The pro version allows reading outlook calendar events and data sharing with google calendar. Rainlendar is by far the most popular desktop calendar.
For users with more advanced needs such as SMS or email reminders I might suggest vueminder which was offered earlier on BDJ and is still offered at discount - search for it under the 'all discount promotions' link on the right side of this page.
But if you haven't tried rainlendar yet you might want to at least try the free version. it is lightweight on resources and surely has a skin to complement your desktop.

J S Dear Kimmo Pekkola,

I must admit, I too - like Bennet and perhaps others, am also concerned about buying this program when it is already at version 2.9x without knowing if version 3 will be a free/discounted/paid in full upgrade or paid upgrade.

It's not price of the program that I'm concerned with but rather not knowing what the policy is at the time of purchase ...
_______________

For example: In one recent Bitsdujour promotion (that I'm currently trying to find) the Vendor literally decided during the day of the promotion - on the strength of questions/comments from Bitsdujour users, that purchasers of the program on that day would would be entitled to a free major upgrade (example v5.x to v6.x) whenever that next upgrade became available.

I'm trying to find the Vendor and program I mentioned, (so that you don't think I just made it up) but it is taking me time to find the example for you as there is a great deal of comments to read, but I believe it was in the last one or two months.

Lol, he had a lot of problems before he died though and a predisposition to heart problems. Last physical I had really good results with everything. Great BP and Pulse in high the 40's to low 50's. =)

J S Following on from my other email I opened a Purchase window

Q1. Why Does a US Dollar purchase through PayPal include 23% VAT? (Value Added Tax) I dont live in Europe (currently I'm in the land down-under) and I have NEVER had to pay VAT or any other Sales Tax on any Bitsdujour pruchase.

"IF" I do make a purchase, PayPal usually issue's the license based on the name on my credit card. But all of my software until know is in a slightly different name to the one on my credit card.

Q2. So once a purchase is made, can I contact Rainlendar dot net and ask for the license to be re-issued in the name of my choice?
_______________

I see there has been no replies from the Vendor in the last 6 hours, so I will also send my comments/questions to Rainlendar dot net.

Kimmo Pekkola Q1: The payment system I'm using doesn't know if the buyer lives in EU or not so unfortunately everyone needs to pay the sales tax.

Q2: Yes. Just make sure you don't download the license but instead send email to the Rainlendar's support email address and I'll change the name in the license.

Alexander Deliyannis Does Rainlendar Pro work with Linux and if so, will this promotion cover its license? (I see only Mac and Windows mentioned here)

Kimmo Pekkola Yes. Rainlendar works also on Linux and the license can be used with the Linux version too. You can download the Linux version from Rainlendar's website (http://www.rainlendar.net).

Alexander Z I was using the free version way too long. This is the best calendar gadget for a Desktop. I was looking for years for a free substitute, which can fully synchronize Google calendar and tasks, be so nice looking on every desktop theme and work so smooth! Definitely worth its money!

Just one question to developer: Is it possible to disable the error messages, which appear when there is no internet connection? They can get very annoying and force me to close temporarily the calendar.

VLM ONLY supports Paypal option, which means no options at all. Would have bought, if there had been more payment options. Suggest that you get another, or at least a second, payment processor.

Paypal allows payment via the standard credit cards without an account.

VLM Thanks Roger. However, if I wanted to pay electronically, I wouldn't care all that much how I did it. :) I don't generally choose to log purchases in the Great Computer in the Sky by using plastic ... my privacy is more important to me than almost any product or service. So I use postal money orders (prepaid, cash), PayNearMe (prepaid, cash), and the like, when offered.

Jack G @ VLM Could use a prepaid visa, don't even have to use your real name for those.

VLM Thanks for the suggestion, Jack. But these are only private when used in person. Over the Internet, the IP and whatever always can go with the transaction.

Also, every time anyone uses a credit card, new dollars are printed ... just like when the Federal Reserve prints them en masse. Not healthful for humans and other living beings.

Personal privacy and liberty are much more at issue that most people even begin to imagine. But this is OT for this conversation, of course. :)
