  1. @jwoodthorpe @cheslincoln I have to admit, I've had very few problems with Snow Leopard & app compatibility. It's been good.
  2. @cheslincoln It's just not as nice as dragging attachments from the #FirstClass client to wherever you want, as I've done for years.
  3. @cheslincoln You can select whichever items you want in the attachments list, right click, choose "Save Attachment…" & then choose folder.
  4. @nogbad @jwoodthorpe It's nice to be cherished in all my "specialness". (-:
  5. @cheslincoln According @jwoodthorpe, Apple broke it in Snow Leopard and it's not fixed in FC 10.003, so probably no solution available yet.
  6. @cheslincoln I was using 9.104 so I downloaded 10.0, but that doesn't seem to have solved it. Wasn't a problem before Snow Leopard.
  7. Does anyone else have trouble dragging files out of FirstClass client to their OS X Snow Leopard desktop or am I special?
  8. @gconole D'oh! I don't use Word/OO for paper writing at all, so I'm even more stuffed, but I like the idea of one tool to rule 'em all.
  9. Answered one of my own #mendeley questions. There's an "Export" option in the "File" menu. Exports to RIS, EndNote XML, or BibTex.
  10. I have questions about #Mendeley: Can you define your own citation styles? How do you export data out? What if you don't use OO/Office?
  11. @gconole Mendeley looks like it's really come along since I first examined it. Can do PDF annotating/storage/citations all in one tool.
  12. @gconole While I'm at it, I highly recommend "Papers" for managing PDFs esp. with Open Source "Skim" as reader/annotator.
  13. @gconole If it had been around earlier, I'd have been tempted to try Zotero, the browser-based one with the Firefox extension.
  14. @gconole However, overall, the software is quite Mac-like & does integrate with some word processors.
  15. @gconole The styles provided are quite basic in Bookends. I've had to tweak them a fair bit. The biblio format tags aren't very intuitive.
  16. @gconole I use Bookends from Sonny Software. EndNote bloaty and they keep charging me to upgrade every year.
  17. @PhilGreaney That is very cool! I'd heard of Macinarium but I hadn't seen it. http://bit.ly/2vm6WA Dare I say it? Very Flash!
  18. @PhilGreaney It'll be interesting to see what happens, especially with the advent of Chrome OS on the scene.
  19. @PhilGreaney However, I have higher hopes for web-based apps. It's true you can now do some very amazing things in a browser.
  20. @PhilGreaney Cross-platform attempts, like Java, haven't exactly been as successful as envisioned either. Good in theory, not in practice.
