Product Description:

Task management shouldn't be your full time job. We've built OmniFocus to take a load off your mind by managing your tasks the way that you want, freeing you to focus your attention on the things that matter to you most. Finish that novel. Spend more time with your friends and family. Grow your business. Let us worry about keeping your goals and tasks, both personal and professional, in one ordered, easy to access system that you can depend on.

What's new in this version:

Operating system compatibility
  • Fixed some issues with the Bonjour sync server on 10.4 where it could return a 502 "Bad Gateway" error after changes to the network configuration.
  • Fixed a compatibility issue with clipping from MailTags on 10.4.
  • Added a compatibility fix for AppleScript clipping handlers.
Syncing
  • Synchronization clients can lock down fewer transactions, allowing the database to compact more frequently.
  • Updated the sync logic to be compatible with some upcoming sync performance enhancements.
  • Updated the syncing logic to ignore synced perspectives from OmniFocus 1.7 (rather than reporting an error because 1.6 doesn't know what to do with them).
Attachments
  • Fixed an issue which could cause attachments to temporarily disappear for users who weren't synchronizing their database. (The attachments would disappear after compacting, then reappear when the database cache was rebuilt.)
  • When an attachment can't be found while moving old data to the archive, OmniFocus no longer gives up with an "Unable to create XML archive" error message. Instead, it logs a warning to the system console and skips the missing attachment.
Miscellaneous
  • The "Due or Flagged" filter now includes items with inherited flags, just as the "Flagged" filter does.
  • Updated the German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Dutch and Chinese localizations.
  • When picking dates using the popup calendar, fixed some bugs with using the keyboard to confirm (Enter) or cancel (Escape) the selected date.
  • Updated the help so it returns results when searching for "themes" (not just "theme").
  • Added a hidden GrowlNotificationLimit preference which controls the number of growl notifications OmniFocus is willing to post simultaneously. (The default limit is 5.)

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.5 Intel

OmniFocus ReviewThe Best To Do Manager Available - Version: 1.7.4, 10/7/2009 12:07AM PST

Timothy Maxwell
I have used many To Do List managers and currently use Daylite to manage contacts and an action list. But, OmniFocus is better at managing To Do than any other program I have tried. However, because Daylite integrates contact management with a related action list, I am committed to Daylite.

If OmniFocus had a contact management link to address book, I sure I would move to OmniFocus. The OmniFocus link with the iPhone is really fantastic!

OmniFocus ReviewI can't believe the previous comments - Version: 1.7.4, 9/30/2009 07:34AM PST

I can't believe the recent negative feedback which to me is a travesty and must be either uninformed or biased. I'm a health professional and juggle hundreds to thousands of priorities. I have tried countless to do methods over the years from paper to computers, trying to get a better handle on the priorities of modern life which which seem to become more and more complicated despite advances in technology . Omnifocus is by far away the most useful application for better controlling this that I have every tried and a 1+ years later, despite temporarily trying every new do list manager, I still live by it, particularly now with benefit of iphone synchronisation. My wish list is that some form of prioritisation beyond flagging could be implemented to help when juggling hundreds of important items. It is as simple or complicated as you need it to be and extraordinary useful for both to do list and projects.

OmniFocus ReviewNo way to try before you buy - Version: 1.7, 8/28/2009 02:15AM PST

There's no way to try this app before you buy it. Downloading an extracting it simply gives you a crazy message about "no password or too many people using the application - exit".

So don't bother unless you feel like shelling out $$$ without knowing what you're getting.
