Hi reefman

1st - TodayPlus is not started manually..  It is checked as a today plugin from \start\settings\today\items..  And should be the only thing checked..

Cities are to be setup in config..  Search for the cities you want to add, and you should then see them on the list..  Then close config, and run the update thru the TP skin that you are using..
Make sure your path and skin is chosen in config..

For the news feeds, just find one you like, or choose one from the ones seen on this forum..  Then enter them also in config..

Hope that helps !  Check back if you need more !

Good Luck !! :)

TodayPlus.

Fine ...

You have to define your poom-filters in config.exe before you can see
any appointments.

TodayPlus is no taskmanager, so it can't do that,. You can use whatever
you want as taskmanager (I think, most of us are using wisbar advance)

Did you allow your ppc to access the internet in ActiveSync (Options) ?

Regards Broesel

reefman

reefman

:?:  Never heard before :?: Maybe you need a newer version of ActiveSync ?

Quoteany help on poom filters - please

This is a little complicated, but you can set up standardfilters for the first:
Open config.exe, go to POOM Filters, in Calendar click "add new", fill in at number of days the days you want to show f.ex. 365. Do that three times
to have 3 filters.
The same at tasks:
"add new" , number of days, sort-order Duedate, check Show overdue
do that three times again to have 3 filters.
That should help to see anything in the calendar.

Activsync is 3.7.1 which is latest version of Microsoft website

re Poom filters

have set up as suggested

Not sure if I misled with question

on my today screen I get the agenda schedule with appointments over next few days

alonside the current day date (to the right) are 4 small icons

the first 2 move up and down list of appointments

the third appears to just upate ?

the fourth show what I think should be month views of current next month but apart from the month name at the top the callender is blacked out


thanks again

Not magic, just the right way :wink:

Quotestill no tasks showing

Tasks will only show, if they have a start- and enddate

Quotewhat format should the RSS feed be entered in - just a web address??

Yes, http://xxx-yyy.xml or what adress you found

Quotewhat should I set the update timing for for weather and RSS?

The updatetime means, the time before TodayPlus tries to refresh again.
If you put a 60 (Minutes) there, it will only refresh after that time has gone
since the last refresh (but it will not do automatically)
