Attached is a screenshot of my Action Screen. New Appointment is the 4th item on my list so it is App3 (App 0, 1 2, 3). I have also attached a screenshot of the registry settings. Don't know what else I can do to help.

Is ThumbCal not opening at all, or is ThumbCal opening and not going to New Appointment?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bmw2320:
Weird, it's working now. maybe I have to soft reset after modifying th regs. Thx for ur patience. God speed.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Sorry, I forgot to mention that. Yes, you need to soft reset after each reg mod for Action Screen. Or at least I had to.

Glad you got it working.

Hi, I have currently got version 1.4.1 which I purchased from the Windows Mobile Marketplace. Am I able to upgrade to 1.4.2, and if so is it just a case of downloading the trial cab and installing over the top, or do I have to wait until the updated version is available on the Marketplace?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] catman51:
You should be able to just install it, and it will uninstall the old version.

Suggestions...?

Is it possible to integrate with WM contacts, and mapping apps? For instance, if you have an appointment that involves someone in your contacts you can not only pick that person (I know this exists already), but if they have an address asscociated with their contact info you can integrate whichever address they have, and clicking on it from within TC will open the mapping app of your choice... Bing, Google, etc and show the location of the appointment.

Also... I know this is asking too much, but you really should create a contact app just like ThumbCal. With the same user-friendlyness, and capabilities of TC. Something that can replace the current WM contact apps... if you could integrate SMS that would be even better.

That would be great from some of us with older WM devices.

:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
I have no clue as to why you are seeing wrong day names, but you might want to check your time zone settings. Maybe an installation changed something.

You can select the language of choice for ThumbCal to use in Settings/Language. English for example.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Windows Marketplace installations don't use registration keys so you will probably have to wait for ThumbCal to be updated in the Market. I don't think the 1.4.2 trial cab will be recognized as being registered on your device. FYI, I just noticed that s.l.i. released a new version today, 1.4.3. You can try but I think it will only work as a trial and may confuse the Marketplace version which probably has a different routine for for updating/overwriting.

You may just have to hold tight for a few more days.

I am really excited :D though to see that my favorite app has made it's way to the Marketplace.

Manage categories

Hi,

I've been searching for a long long time, and didn't find a way to manage (delete or add) categories.

I would like to know how could I do to remove unwanted categories

Thanks a lot for your help
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stevennekens:
You might want to install the trial version of Agenda One. In that programme you can easily delete categories as long as there aren't any tasks, contacts or appointments that belong to it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] woaloo:
I've tried AgendaOne and Pocket Informant, but both are to complicated and "heavy", Thumcal is really a nice little application

Other one are not enough finger friendly !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
Agreed. Both those apps are complicated and heavy. But if you just want to get rid of unwanted categories, load a trial of Agenda One, remove the categories and then delete the trial. I have a licensed version of Agenda One and only keep it on my storage card to remove the occasional category.

You can also use SK Tools to remove categories.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bmw2320:
Yeah, thumbcal is nice and just work effectively although not as powerful as Pocket Informant
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] woaloo:
Yes, great trick !!!

Sk-tools do the job perfectly. Thanks a lot, jimski.

Overwrite Bottom Bar Icons?

Hi - I discovered this app this weekend and I think it's great! Thanks very much!

However, I have one small issue that I'm hoping someone can help with. I don't care for the look of the bottom bar icons. I currently have the app skinned to the Omnia version. I'm wondering if it's possible to overwrite the icons in Omnia with the bottom bar icons found in the Barrreto Sense skin?

I extracted the menuBarIconsHiRes png from BtS and added it to the Omnia zip file and soft reset in the hopes that it would automatically overwrite. No luck. Any suggestions?

Many thanks and sorry if this is an uninformed noob question. I'm learning as I go...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] killer73:
thanku thank thank
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tims31:
Thanks for this excelent app...just what my HD has been needing.

One problem that I do have is that I installed it but had so many categories in my calendar I removed some but they stay in the listing within ThumbCal. They no longer show in my Outlook listing or in the WinMo Calendar listing but even after uninstalling ThumbCal and rebooting the Category listing remains the same as before.

Does anyone know where the category list is saved to? Please :confused:

Thanks in advance
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] woaloo:
I know that you can remove them with SKtools, but I don't know where there are stored. Maybe in your pim.vol, but I'm not sure.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tims31:
Yep that did the trick...I did look through several pages to try and find an answer but gave up...I should have gone back one page:o

Nice calendar!

The color theme could use some improvement though. I'm wondering why the indicator color in prev/next month goes with the prev/next month's text color? It seems cleaner to use indicator's own color throughout.

Is there a way to set background color for prev/next month?

Download

www.thumbapps.com

Not freeware anymore...

Just FYI.

Olioaglio
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
As noted above, not freeware. But worth every penny. Download the trial and find out for yourself.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gcianc:
A+ application. Purchased within minutes of downloading the trial.

Extra props for offering settings to be the default calendar or not as well as having the today screen (disabling SenseUI) calendar softkeys launch TC.

This is a no-brainer an application as there is people.

One suggestion would be for a setting to set default new appts to "free" or "busy" so you can do less "clicks" for the majority of new appts.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gulluwing:
first of all excuse me for my bad english.

I installed thumbcal 1.4.3 on my htc touch 2 and I setted it as default calendar, it's not so fast because when, in today, I tap on calendar Thumb starts and after 4/5 seconds I can use it: is there another procedure to have Thumb ready to use when I tap on calendar?

2) how can I change notification sound?

3)IMPORTANT: if I create a remind with allarm, for ex. tomorrow morning at 8.30 am and I turn on my device at 11 am Thumb doesn't notify me the remind: is it normal or I have to change some settings?

THANKS
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thepolishguy:
If you want the app to be ready to go - i think you can do this... Try placing a .lnk to the thumbcal.exe in the Windows\StartUp folder. then, when you start your phone, the app will be ready. But if you have your "X" button set to kill apps or you are running "Ameba" or a similar program - then you are defeated unless you can add thumbcal.exe to an exceptions list.

good luck.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gulluwing:
excuse me, what's a .lnk ? I'm not so experienced on winmobile.

thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jimski:
A .lnk is a shortcut to a file, in this case ThumbCal.exe.

-Open File Explorer and navigate to the folder containing the ThumbCal files. Either \Program Files\ThumbCal or \Storage Card\Program Files\ThumbCal depending on where you installed the app.

-Tap and hold ThumbCal.exe until the context menu pops up. Then tap Copy

-Now while still in File Explorer, navigate to \Windows\Startup. Tap and hold a blank white space near the bottom of the screen. When the context menu pops up, tap Paste Shortcut. If there is no blank white space at the bottom, instead tap Menu/Edit/Paste Shortcut.

-Tap Up in File Explorer two time to get out of the Windows folder (it's slow). Close File Explorer.

-You just created a shortcut, ThumbCal.lnk in your startup folder.

If you want to make sure ThumbCal remains open all the time, open ThumbCal, Tap the Menu (first Icon) and tap Settings. Scroll near the bottom of the list (see screenshot) and deselect (not checked) "Close on minimize". Tap OK to save. When closing ThumbCal, always use the lower left Menu Icon, Menu/Exit, and not the "X" in the upper right corner. That way ThumbCal will only minimize and be ready instantly the next time you call it up.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gulluwing:
thanks a lot, you have been very kind and courteous

App doesn´t start depending on appointment or not!

Hi!

I´ve been using Thumbcal for about a year now. I had a Touch Cruise where it ran without any probs in Winmo 6.5. (used last version of Thumbcal)

Now I´ve bought a HD mini and I got problems...

I discovered that, when I have an appointment I CAN`T open the app from homescreen... All other shortcuts to the app works! BUT if I delete/move all my appointments of the day so it´s

no appointment on the homescreen

, then it´s possible to open up the app!

(I have disabled the default calender tab.)

What´s wrong, someone else recognize this? Thanks in advance!

Hi,

The Key that I received does not work. I entered it several times to make sure I was typing it right but thumbcal keeps telling me "the unlock code is invalid". Please help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hanackin:
if you need some help regarding the key just contact SLI (the developper)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Baldrick1:
Hi

I had the same problem...which in my case was caused by what I thought were '0s' but were in fact 'Os'. This may not be the case in your particular situation but just in case it is it is worth checking out. Plus I also recall that there was an issue with the case of the alpha characters in the code. Trying putting them in as the opposite to that which they have been supplied to you, ie, if the code you have is showing upper case then enter them as lowercase...and see if that helps.

That is all I can think of for now...hope that it helps?

Regards

I think that the owner name must be conect with KEY.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] catman51:
You have to buy the program. Keygen is illegal and you will be banned from the forum.

Go buy it.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] paitken:
Can't display modified theme

I think i'm being stupid, but here go's anyway.

All i'm trying to do is replace the background image used in a theme. I create my new background and replace the exising background, exact same dimensions and file name. I then zip it and move it to the ThumbCal folder. When i start the app and go to the settings the new theme is listed i select it and it reloads. However it doesn't display the theme at all and appears to revert to a default theme. Checking the settings shows that the modded skin is selected.

Anbody know what i'm doing wrong?

Cheers.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] djsolidsnake86:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] catman51:
Anyone else notice the ThumbApps Forum has been down?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bart3385:

well it's a bug

the author where is?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] catman51:
Their forum is still down, not a good sign!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Can somebody confirm the problem, that some past appointments can't be found with the search function?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bart3385:
I tried it. Search from within ThumbCal can find past appointments.

Also, Search Phone tool of WM can also find old appointments.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] djsolidsnake86:
these bug need to be fixed (priority to the agenda bug!)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Appointments, that are repeated 1 or more times, are not found here. Only the upcoming.

The Search Phone tool does find them all correctly.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bart3385:
I can't really test that part. Because I sync my phone to Outlook regularly. The standard configuration is to remove old appointments from the phone older than 1 or 2 weeks. So i have not much old data to search for.

But i'd trust Search Phone anytime. It's one damn good search utility since ppc2003. Never fails.

Hi Have installed the 1.4.2. But till the buttons bring me to outlook défaut app, I checked the regisistry and noticed that during installation the process already have made the registry changes you suggested (thanks to you for trying helping).

For Calendar I exactly have this in the registry : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCALENDAR\1 = "\Program Files\ThumbCal\\ThumbCal.exe"

for tasks the key is :

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSTASKS\1 = "\Program Files\ThumbCal\ThumbCal.exe"

I rebooted my HD2 but the defaut calendar remain outlook.:(

What is wrong ?

Anybody to help me (us) making ThumbCal the défaut calendar ? :o

Deleting a single Item

I like Thumbcal but find some things a bit "not obvious"

Any one know how to delete a single item from a recurring seiries.

cheers

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jpijper:
Delete single item from recurring series

When you try to delete an item in a recurring series, the program asks you if it should delete the whole series and gives you the options "All", "Singe" and "Cancel".

I'm using the last version 1.4.3.

This is my problem: every year I had to pay by 15 may a tax and I would receive every day (between may 1 and may 15) for every year at 11am a notice that reminds me the tax.

how can I set thumcal?

thank's a lot
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aiiro:
Seems this thread, as the forum on ThumbCal's home page is dead. But I'll try my luck anyway, maybe there are some other dinosaurs like me outthere still using this app. The issue that I have is with opening a specific item from the reminder menu. That is - when you have a reminder set by the calendar, it will sound an alarm and display on Today screen, replacing the soft keys with something like "Dismiss" and "Menu". When you open the menu, you get choices like "Snooze 5 min", "Snooze 15 min" etc. One of those choices is "View item" (at least on WM 6 and 6.5.3). When I press on the "View item" menu item, I still get the item in default view (pocket outlook I presume), not in ThumbCal.

No matter how I have searched, I end up with no solution to this, except for the fact that the menu is probably contained in a "notify.dll" file. I am really surprised that nobody else is having this issue, I am having it already on my second device. I have tried all the registry settings and even replacing poutlook.exe on my device (don't try that one :)) with no luck whatsoever. Anyway, hoping that there's someone outthere who has the answer to this annoying problem... If there is an answer.

Something I noticed...after I added a new appointment, I went back to the calendar and I noticed the numbers and text werent as big as before, is there a way I can leave it like that? I exit the program and when I came back they were big again.

also for the dudes that like the iphone look I created a skin using similar colors ;)

A small thinks, can we change the font in the skin ? Because your font is to big.

Sorry for my english, i'm french
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] s.l.i:
Hehe, my english isn't that better. :D

I already thought about it and think, it could be able in next release.

Just one very small thing though....When I add an appointment, I can add the start time but not the end time...I can still use it though.

Now how do I get the calendar button (Bottom LHS) to fire this up instead of the MS one ?

Hello its great app, very nice, there's just a bug :

go to a new date or new task and make a right-left side to go back, then we return to calendar view and there's OK and CANCEL buttons still visible... It's a little bug.

Good job continue :)
