Need better freeware calendar application - General Questions and Answers

Sorry if this was posted already in any form somewhere else.
If so, please point me to the right thread and then lock this one...
I'm sooo pissed at default calendar application in WM 6.1 Pro.
This is what I get (attached screenshot, Screen03.jpg):
What I SHOULD see there are 2 birthdays on 2009-03-06, one on 2009-03-10, one on 2009-03-12... you get the picture?
I want to see lunch on 2009-02-28 AND multi-day event 2009-02-28/2009-03-01...
Not to mention that if I have 2 or more meetings on the same day, I want to see how many meetings I have... Not that just see meeting...
Is there such freeware calendar application?

You can try the free version of ThumbCal. You can find it in the forum of the website.
http://thumbapps.com/

This is the wrong place for questions.
Please refer to the Q&A section.
Thank you

Que?
Ups! Double post!

Que?
I think this is the Q&A section
Try the TodayAgenda as well. It's totally freeware.

Tried ThumbCal, and that's not what I need/seek.
TodayAgenda is nice, but also not what I need/seek.
Thanks for pointing to that software, anyway...
Currently S2U2 shows much needed info on locked screen, but S2U2 is no calendar application...

I can only think of a few calendar applications.. none will fit the EXACT description.. and some will show other things...
Thumbcal can be used for weekview where you can show all appointments on the same week
HgToday/HgAgenda are today plugins and stand alone appointment/task viewers
Calendar+... also a today plugin, and you can choose how many rows/appointments to show

Calendar - Hide tentative or categories from Today Screen?

Hi,
I have a bunch of appointments in a category called South Pacific (my gym) which I have also labeled as tentative. I wish that all these appointments would not show up on my today screen, as it clogs it up and makes it hard to see my actual meetings. I would prefer to just see them in the actual calendar app instead.
Is there some way I can hide either tentative or certain categories from the calendar on the today screen? If not, is there addon software that would do this for me?
By the way, I have a Wizard that I just upgraded to WM6.
Thanks
Hi, I just answered my own question.
If anyone is searching for a similar solution, I googled "today screen hide free appointments" and found TodayAgenda: http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/todayagenda.shtml
Totally free, does exactly what I want (and more, I have only used it for 2 minutes) plus it works with windows mobile 6. Did I mention it is free?

Must have application for VOX

Hi. I have never had any application on my HTC S710, but I found a site called handango and bought three I found very usefull.
This is what I bought:
Chronos alarm clock
SBSH Papyrus and Facade
So when i managed to find three just by looking at handango, there must be many more that I need. So does anyone else have a application that they recomend? Post it here.

You should have bothered looking into the forum. There is already a thread for Vox applications.
Photo Contacts Pro is a must for me
Not because of the photo contacts, but because of the complete profiling options... and by complete I mean COMPLETE
Auto Switch profiles (also different depending on type of meeting)
Fixed time Switches (like night time peace and quiet)
Exceptions (Group exceptions (Family) or single exceptions (Wife/Girlfriend))
"Quick Profiles" like -> Quiet for the next 2 hours (for watching a movie)
etc.
Here is the link:

you should have bought from the developers directly.
handago really rips the developers off with their huge commission.
I didnt know that. Im gona buy directly from the developers next time.

Toggle only private meetings on today screen

Hi folks,
I searched an hour and couldn't find anything: I want to be able to (easily) switch the today screen calendar to:
A) only show private meetings
B) show all meetings
The Nokia N70 does this nicely but I couldn't find any WM software to do the trick. I own a Nike with WM 6.1 btw.
The reason for my request is, that on weekens I would like to be spared with being reminded of meetings next week at the office - improving my work-life-balance ;-)
Anyone know of a solution?
Thanks & Best regards,
p0lDi
This is a wonderful option to be implemented into poutlook. I know you can filter your appointments by categories rather than by status.. so i assume that if you're willing to accept this it would not be that hard to write a quick script which switches between filters.
do you think that would be enough?
not sure - I would assume that the filter is not applied to the today screen, or is it? Also I use categories for other things already... But maybe I just got you wrong ;-)
Well, i assume that to filter to the today screen you'd need a seperate application... but i'm not sure.
The windows today plugin is indeed very basic with only few to no options.
You'll need a separate today plugin like SPB Diary or WebIS Pocket Informant.
I'm sure there are lits more.

Tasks/todo lists on home?

Hi all
I've done a few searches and haven't come up with anything useful - is it possible to have the home page of my Topaz show a "todo" list?
Thanks
Cheers
Sing7
Hey,
Ya anyone have any insights on this? it would be great to have a todo list...
I've noticed that on the Touch HD2, there is 3 quick lauch program icons, anyone know if we can do that?
thanks,
pksm2k
Loock for taskanium, maybe is what you are loocking for...

Then there is Manila Today Page. This program displays today plug-ins in one of the TouchFLO 3D manila pages. Get it here;
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-manila-today-page.html
Below is a link to AM TasksPlus an alternative for the tasks plug-in provided by the Pocket PC manufacturer. AM TasksPlus shows compact tasks statistics or a detailed list of incomplete tasks grouped by date (Actual, Due today, Overdue and Future tasks). The list can be easily switched between the compact and detailed form.

Calender showing week numbers

Hello,
I have been searching for a while now with no luck. Maby one of you knows,
I am looking for a calender, or actualy a calender mod, so that the manila calender on my hd2 in month view also show what week it is.
Example, right now it is week 8, or the end of it. so in month view I would like to have the number 8 infront of this weeks row, and a 9 infront (or actually to the left) of next week and so on. Do I make any sense?
Anyone knows how I can make this happen?
best regards Johan
I would be thakful for the same thing
if you do not insist of Manila calender to do so, you can try to use PortablePIM.
The software can be switched to English under options (the light blue icon)
Thanks for the help,
I will try it and see how it works. It would be nice to have it in manila though...
Please...
Can someone make a mod for Us all...
I have asked the same question to HTC support... last month and still no answer from them.... shame,
News anyone
Hello,
Just wanted to post the question again.
Anyone seen any progress in this area?
I think it would be really nice to have the week number in the calender.
I agree. It's a weekly pain in the ass when at workplace we're deciding the next occassion for a meeting and the suggestions are almost always in "How about the Tuesday morning in week XX" format. I always have to ask what date are you talking about as my Sense calendar isn't able to display the week number in any of the available views.
I also want one :-D
I would be much more thankful if there is also a little Moon icon which says half/full moon etc. and, that would be best, a possibility to import holidays.
All that i a way that it is not shown in the agenda but only in the calendar itself
A app for HTC sense showing week numbers would be very nice.
I now use a quick link to the Windows calendar to look up the week numbers
ThumbCal
I found an application called thumbcal that seem to work well. The only sad part is that you need to buy it...
I prefer Aganda One - but you also have to pay for it...
