Hi Jimalex, I made some suggestions last October - Wouldn't it be nice to be in need of a name?! I wonder how kWkW is getting on with attempts at repair, and Frank10 and liaison with the Softlab guy? I found some residual stuff on an old hard drive - another version of a PIM which may be...

Drat - too early to do the '100th post' boast due to the e-mail faux pas being removed, oh well! I think we established that Motorola said that SK was not one of their products, and I never received any response from Intellisync, so we would seem to have exhausted that line of enquiry -...

Evening all, '100 UP' for this thread, guys! I am currently reviewing something called PIMOne, which is extremely close to Sidekick and its functions. There is a 20-day trial download available through Download.com ( http://www.download.com/PIMOne/3003-2074_4-10433833.html ). Its interface is...

The response from Individual Software: You are an active advocate for reviving SideKick. I visited the Tektips site linked from your email, and read most of the threads and indeed, there is much nostalgic fondness for SK. Good luck with getting P. Kahn back involved, but short of that, I'm...

Hi all, Spoke to John Connors this evening (Hey - JC, initials of a real guy who saved the human race!), who will refer me on to someone in the company who deals with this type of thing. Having an opinion on AnyTime Organiser and its suitability would be vital to enable us to have a...

Hey Gyula, Great minds think alike (or maybe ‘fools seldom differ’!) I tried to send an e-mail to Mr Kahn through the Fullpower site but failed. I then sent one via the Lee-Kahn Foundation website, with a similar request for help and a link to this thread. Hopefully he will respond positively...

Hi kWkW, First of all, can I welcome you onboard! This thread started last July, and has had the highest number of responses within the Sidekick forum to date, so is an indication of the effect this has had and how popular the software is. It would be fair to say that there will undoubtedly be...

I guess I’m kinda talking to myself at the moment, being New Year’s Day and all that! However, I think I may have managed to devise a slightly long-winded way of moving items through the To Do or Calls feature. 1. Enter a numbered and dated item into either the To Do or Calls lists. e.g. “01...

Happy New Year to you all! Working a night shift on one of the wards, and thought I would spend the moment of Sidekick's demise writing this in my break. I would make the following points: 1.There is no support/development forthcoming from Starfish (bought out), Intellisync (no reply)...

Guess what I've spotted?! A company called Sonnettech are marketing a double-jointed USB adaptor called 'Sidekick' - looks like we missed the boat!

Count me in for a £100 contribution! Great excuse for a trip to see how the 'business opportunity' is getting on if we went with Ken's suggestion! I've just spent part of an afternoon looking at PIMs on Tucows, I can't believe the mess that people offer as 'organisers'. Most are shareware too...

Hi Frank, Sorry, no known answer to the problem yet, but check out the thread "Support for an independant version of SideKick" and add to the debate! If enough support/interest is shown, who knows, we may get something off the ground. Mick

I tried to 'contact' Microsoft about this as mentioned previously - my efforts have ended up as a thread in a 'Communities Discussion Zone'. Indeed, one reply has identified my question as 'This looks like one of those suggestions to microsoft that seem to be routed to who knows where'! I will...

I can answer the 'copy' issue! You should either have a 'Basic' toolbar with a 'Select' option, or on the Menu Bar, go to 'Tools' - 'Basic' - 'Select'. This will give you the item you require, right click to copy to clipboard. Should work..... Mick

This rings a bell - sorry for the pun! Have you checked all the threads rather than the FAQ's? I have a feeling of dejavu here - Jim or others may remember.........
