CalEventer


Current Version: 3.0.0

THIS is the must-have app for all iCal users. Haven't you always wanted a simple method to see which Events are coming up in all of your calendars? Wouldn't a nice, neat, orderly listing of those Events be more useful than what is currently available? Of course it would! Right now, today, CalEventer will simplify the way you provide a visible digest of all of your upcoming Events.

Using a simple Tabbed interface, you can choose any combinations of calendars, any date range, any weekdays, filter your location(s), and then output your list of Events as either plain, rich, or (X)HTML coded text, which can then be pasted into ANY word processor or text editor you wish. The Event Preview Window on the right side of the main window maintains an up-to-date collection of the Dates and Events you have selected for output. There is no new collection of software commands to learn; an incredibly intuitive interface (Click for screenshots) will lead you to an exceedingly comfortable level of organizational nirvana. It really is as simple as it looks, and you will be amazed at how much more organized your life feels.

This page has some short screen-capture videos that will help you to see how clean and simple CalEventer operates.

Take a look at a variety of output examples to give you a clearer idea of how utterly useful this app can be.

OddCal


Current Version: 1.3.0 --- Version 1.3.1 submitted to App Store on 23 July 2011 ---

Entering multiple dates into an iCal calendar is a cinch when those dates can be expressed in a nice, neat, repeating pattern. Unfortunately, when multiple dates DON'T have a clean repeat pattern, cutting and pasting Event Data in iCal is an absolute nightmare!

OddCal is here to solve those dilemmas. Via the simple, intuitive interface (Click for screenshots), you can choose as many dates as you like, and assign the same Event Title (with or without a Location or a Note) to all of them. Events can have Start and End times, or be marked as All Day. And yes, you can choose any iCal calendar you want, or create a new one on the fly.

When you need to have sequential numbers as part of your Event Title, OddCal makes that a cinch as well. You, the user, exercise FULL control over the process: you choose the Tag, the starting number, and the step interval. OddCal then generates your Events, and they are all numbered as you ordered them. After the first usage, you'll wonder how you ever managed without it!

SchoolCal


Current Version: 1.1.0

You're in school, your kids are in school, or worse, your kids are in different schools! Sure, you can download all of the calendars for the different schedules, hang them on the refrigerator, try to organize everything, etc., etc.

Or you can spend 5 minutes with SchoolCal, and you'll have all the dates for all the vacations, Late Arrival days, Early Dismissal days, and any other school-related Events neatly written to the iCal calendar(s) of your choice!

The clean, intuitive menus of SchoolCal makes the chore of tracking school schedules almost seem like fun. You can see from the screenshots how SchoolCal can be easily used to enter any and all dates associated with standard Fall to Spring school calendars.

iPhotos By Size

Click to download

iPhoto continues to evolve as a tremendous application to organize and edit digital images. One thing it continues to lack, however, is the opportunity for the user to sort images by file size. Although not necessary every single day, this can come in handy from time to time. It is offered completely free of charge.

iPhotos By Size is an AppleScript Studio application, created in XCode. It will download as .zip file. Once expanded (simply double-click), dropping it into your Applications Folder will complete the installation.

Since this is AppleScript-based, be patient; on large libraries, you may need to go make a sandwich while you are waiting for it to complete the analysis.
