Request: portable todo list for PC with Android app

Submitted by Bas6t on May 21, 2013 - 5:33am

Hi,

I'm looking for a portable app to manage tasks (todo list), that can do a 2-way sync to/from an Android smartphone, either by USB cable or through the cloud (services like Google, RTM, Astrid, etc.).

Best would be a *portable* app that can sync with Outlook, but if that isn't possible I'd be happy to manage my tasks with a separate PC-app, as long as it's portable.

As I use Fingertips to enter taks items, it would be nice if new tasks can be entered from the commandline or (in the case of a cloud service) by sending an email to the cloud service (as in RTM).

Thanks!

Hi,

WSUS Offline Update is an GPL licenced tool which is already portable. It would be great if you can make a portable besed on portableapps.com format.

What it does?
"Using "WSUS Offline Update", you can update any computer running Microsoft Windows and Office safely, quickly and without an Internet connection."

Thank you

You should add this to your lineup of PortableApps https://www.torproject.org/

Tor protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody watching your Internet connection from learning what sites you visit, and it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location. Tor works with many of your existing applications, including web browsers, instant messaging clients, remote login, and other applications based on the TCP protocol.

pdf open and save in other format

Submitted by jojothehobo on May 15, 2013 - 1:59pm

It would be most helpful if Portable apps had an application that would allow users to open pdf and then save it in an editable format, such as .pdf to word or .pdf to .odt. Many of us use, or have to use, documents in pdf format and it would be good to open them in either editable form or open and save in .doc, .odt, or even .rtf. That way we can save selections or figures.

There are a few free open source pdf converters/editors out there. Can any of them be made portable? Thanks.

Request > DISK-Cloner

Cant imagine this app dont exists...!

I want a Portable App for copy/clone partitions and drives on the go!

( It doesnt need to be fancy, just a clone-tool that is launched from a usb-drive > browse-Choose what to copy > and transfer RAW data to new destination > target for instance external HDD also connected to the client. those linux tools are quite simply copying all data from A to B. Just make it portable so it doesnt need the registry /memory of the source machine...? Possible? Thanks )
