Things appears to e very good software but is not networkable and cannot be loaded onto iDisk or Dropbox. What makes you say that? A quick Google on things osx dropbox comes up with about 2 million results! http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8oe=UTF-8sourceid=navclientgfns=1q= things+osx+dropbox Several of them appear to be discussing ways to sync the Things database via dropbox eg this one (which was the first result on my search): http://www.tuaw.com/2009/10/10/tips-and-tricks-putting-things-in-your-dropb ox-makes-syncing-si/ A quick peruse suggests that it is easy to sync the database between computers but that you need to ensure that only one computer at a time is accessing the database, to quote the article: There are some caveats to this sync method. First, you should never run Things on all of the machines at the same time. Instead, always quit Things when leaving a machine to ensure that the database is properly closed. Second, syncing Things with iCal from numerous Macs can cause some problems resulting in duplicate iCal to-dos. Finally, realize that you'll still have to sync up your iPhone to one of your Macs in order to keep it up to date. While this may seem like a roundabout way of keeping Things synced on more than one Mac, it's actually quite straightforward and works very well. Until Cultured Code builds global syncing into future versions of Things, this is a good workaround. I'll leave it up to you to check out any of the other results :o) Cheers Neil -- Neil R.
