I'd like to hear more about the Time Design system that I've read some here use for their life management. Does anyone have any thoughts that would be helpful to me? I use a PDA now. Is it worth a look? Thanks!

go to www.timedesign.com and view the online "training" on their system.
It will seem a lot like GTD stuff because it is . :wink:

They have screen shots of every form and very detailed info on how they're used. Very informative site.

--actually the section you want is called " why it works"

If I hadn't switched over to Outlook/Palm, I would still be using my TimeDesign planner. It fits the GTD system much better than a Franklin Covey or DayTimers planner.

I recommend looking through the site and going through the brief "training" (Why it Works) section as well.

I will also say that I wish their software version (TaskTimer) was cheaper. $275.00 is a bit much for a PIM... although it does do more than Outlook.

No problem 8)
--they say it syncs with a pda --but they don't say how.

I downloaded a trial but there wasn't any sync software included.
Their older versions used to use Intellisync--maybe they still do .

TaskTimer synchronises with a PDA

TaskTimer currently requires the Pumatech Intellisync Connector to synchronise TaskTimer items with your Palm or PocketPC PDA (see Pumatech). It costs around $69 from Pumatech.

Mobipro provides a free interface, called TaskTimer Intellisync Connector, to the Pumatech's Intellisync connector. This can be downloaded from Mobipro Connectivity and is also distributed on the TaskTimer CD.

An alternative to the Pumatech stuff is to buy QuickSync (~$50) from Mobipro which will allow you to synchronise with MS Outlook, and then let ActiveSync sync to the PDA.

Hope this makes it clearer,

Peter.

TaskTimer to sync with PDA

Paul: As per previous post, QuickSync from MOBIPRO can synchronise TaskTimer with Outlook. ActiveSync, a Microsoft product, syncs Outlook with PocketPC. Is this what you are asking?

To sync directly between TaskTimer to PocketPC, you need Pumatech's Intellisync (I recommend v5.01.01, or 5.01.02 with patch, but v3.7 and 4.0 still work) and the free TaskTimer Intellisync interface. The version of TaskTimer Intellisync interface depends on the version of TaskTimer

Any clearer?

Peter.

I've tried numerous hi tech systems-palm, pocket pc, task timer, outlook and on and on.

I discovered that I'm just not cut out for those. I love technology, but when it comes to my time management system, pen to paper does it for me.

I have started purchasing bits of time design and so far really like it. I'm not able to purchase the whole system at once, but I bought the binder (ebay) and it came with the inserts, as well as a few forms. I have created many forms using word and so far feel good about the system. The data banks are great for context lists.

I suggest going to the site and checking the "why it works" lesson, if you haven't already.

Print Manager for Time/system

Hi Michele,

You might want to take a look at Print Manager (free from you local Time/system dealer or MOBIPRO) which provides a MS Word and Excel Add-in. This allows you to layout your document/form to fit exactly into all Time/system's products.

Peter.

Print Manager not available

Checked with Time/Design folks and the Print Manager is no longer available. Anyone know where I can find it, or are there any other applications or add-ins that will help create custom forms or calendar pages? :?:

I suspect that someone out there has chose not to shell out $50 for calendar refills and has found a way to print dated pages and then have them cut and drilled (if not already on punched A5 paper).

Print Manager is definitely available...from MOBIPRO

Just request via email support@mobipro.com. Or you can enter the details in TaskTimer and print a completed form from there.
