7/4/2023 0 Comments Soho notes database file![]() ![]() SOHO Notes includes other features that I haven’t used, including blog posting and editing, audiovisual recording, and iPod synchronization.Ĭhronos has also produced an iPhone and iPod touch app, NoteLife, that can be used as a stand-alone note manager and for synchronizing with the Mac version of SOHO Notes. When you first start using SOHO Notes, you’ll want to spend some getting to know about the various options it provides for customizing folders, font style and sizes, adding tags, shortcuts, and hot keys, and selecting a backup location. So for example, if I add a bit of AppleScript code to SOHO Notes, it will instantly get put into my AppleScript smart folder, saving me the time of manually adding it to a particular folder. While you can’t manually save notes to smart folders in SOHO Notes, it does gather together notes and other content based on the rules you set for a particular folder. If you follow my articles, you know that any application using smart folders gets an instant star or two from me. Though this can be done using Apple‘s Automator and iCal, it’s ten times easier to do it in SOHO Notes. I also like that I can assign a specific time and date for opening a selected note or file that I saved in SOHO Notes. Chronos provides a nice set of icons but you can also use a small png or JPEG file to create or your icon for a folder. The icon for folders can be customized so that no two folders look the same. SOHO Notes includes customizing features that make it easier to navigate and organize content. ![]() I can also grab selected text from any web page or document using the Services menu or a hot key. Similarly, I can use DockNote, which rest unobtrusively on the lower-right corner of my desktop where I can drop content into any folder I assign. I can pull up QuickNote with an assigned hot key, compose a note, and select folder/notebook where I want the note saved. QuickNote and DockNote features provides very useful ways to add and access content. What’s most essential to me about SOHO Notes is that I can add notes and content to the application without the application being open. Each of these applications has it pros and cons, and I’ve used them all, but I keep returning to Chrono’s SOHO Notes as my notebook application of choice.īefore I go into explaining why I use SOHO Notes, I want to say upfront that this application crashed on me, and even after several back and forth exchanges with its support staff, I never recovered the files. After the last crash, I moved to Evernote, and still use it too, but here are some reasons I still prefer SOHO Notes, despite the danger of crashes. There are several dozen notebook applications for the Mac, including the popular and free Evernote, the classic Mac Journal, and DevonThink. ![]()
