If you downloaded v1.3 please update to v1.3.1 as there are a few bug fixes as well.

In addition we have updated the agent file. Please download and install the latest agent file. {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2009:index.php/site/index/4.81 2009-12-07T08:17:14Z 2009-12-07T18:18:15Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com After a small subset of users having some issues with v1.3 we have submitted a minor update - v1.3.1 to Apple.

We have included some other small features in it as well that were in development

v1.3.1 Changelog -----------------------------
- Fixed memory leaks causing crashes on launch for some users
- Fixed a timezone issue for users with positive (i.e. +0000 and above) timezones
- Added international date format of YYYY/MM/DD
- Full integration of our support service via the 'Help' button on the More tab {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2009:index.php/site/index/4.78 2009-12-04T09:36:08Z 2009-12-04T20:27:09Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com
Also remember - we moved the settings into a more convenient spot inside the application itself (it will come up on first load, and you can get to it again by clicking on the 'More' tab). Make sure you write down any settings you had in previous versions as once you upgrade you will be required to put them in again. Moving the settings in-app helps you be able to quickly change things like number of emails to download or calendar ranges without having to exit and restart the app.

Any future upgrades should carry the new settings from this point forward.

Paul's 'The Truth' foundation has started this initiative in coordination with the Clinton Global Initiative to help kids make healthy choices and fight childhood obesity.

We're proud to be able to be involved in such a worthy and noble cause! {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2009:index.php/site/index/4.19 2009-06-17T15:20:49Z 2009-09-11T23:44:50Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com NotesPro.txt

We have made some minor tweaks to make NotesPro work with v3.0 of the iPhone. No new app is required.

Look forward to some exciting new changes to NotesPro in the coming weeks. We have a solution for those of you that use portals, single-signon, etc!

Stay tuned! {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2009:index.php/site/index/4.20 2009-04-02T15:26:56Z 2009-09-11T23:44:57Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com
If you’ve purchased v1.1 or NotesCal - v1.2 is a free upgrade!

Updates in this version:

• Fixed crashing when loading large sets of data - i.e. there should be theoretically no limit to the number of contacts you can load.
• Support for international characters has been fixed.
• Timezone support has been fixed.
• Support added for DD/MM/YYYY date format.
• Ability to use built-in iPhone mail client to reply to or send emails.
• Maximum emails to download has been increased to 60
• More verbose user feedback when checking mail and refreshing calendar/contacts/todo
• Added ‘Today’ button to calendar to quickly jump to today’s entry.
• Limit on contacts, mail, calendar entries and todos is now limited by your drive space and time - the issues with large contact lists have been solved!

Also - please make sure to download the new agent file for v1.2! {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2009:index.php/site/index/4.22 2009-03-23T16:01:26Z 2009-09-12T00:11:27Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com
Apple’s push notification requires a central server on the developer’s end to push notifications to Apple. What this means is that to implement this feature Notes Pro would require your Lotus Notes server to send a central JM Interactive server data and then the server at JM Interactive server would push notification out to your phone.

We haven’t tested whether this is even feasable yet - as the Push servers are not available to developers - but we would like to know if this is something our potential and current users would be interested in. We could have varying levels of notification as well - a simple badge alerting you of a new email - or a verbose popup with the sender and/or subject line. Per Apple, these notifications are not 100% reliable nor are they secure, so this is something to take into consideration as well.

Please take a second to answer the poll on the side of the website and let us know your preference.

Lastly - a little more about their announcement. They have still not opened up the calendaring application to external apps. This means - for the time being - that using the calendar on Notes Pro will stay within Notes Pro and cannot sync up to your iPhone’s internal calendar. This is a limitation of the SDK we hope will be lifted in so we can fully integrate into the iPhone in a future version of Notes Pro. {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2009:index.php/site/index/4.21 2009-03-23T15:38:05Z 2009-09-11T23:45:06Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com

Additionally - contrary to my previous v1.2 post we have made updates to the Agent file that we will release when v1.2 is approved. This should offer more stability and also improve the reliability of data in the contacts and todo portions of the app. {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2009:index.php/site/index/4.23 2009-02-28T15:14:42Z 2009-09-12T00:15:43Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com
Internally, we tested on an iPod Touch and iPhone, tested with Lotus Notes server v6, 6.5, 7, 8 and 8.5.

We tested Japanese, Russian, Italian, French, Spanish, and Simplified Chinese.

We’re confident this should fix language issues, timezone issues, and date format issues.

Again, thank you everyone for your support and your patience while we get this worked out.

v1.2 has been submitted to Apple for approval, and I will update when it has been approved. Note that in the new version an Agent file update is not required, although I have made some tweaks to the agent file to make it more stable so I would recommend grabbing the new one when posted (I’ll do that when v1.2 is published).

For the next version we plan on improving our network and storage code to make it quicker and more efficient. We also will be adding calendar entry creation.

Lastly - v1.2 also adds a feature many have desired - you can now optionally choose to use the built-in iPhone mail client to send mail, reply to mail, or email contacts in the contacts list. {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2009:index.php/site/index/4.24 2009-02-24T15:15:40Z 2009-09-12T00:16:41Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com
We’re currently in need of 10 beta testers for the next version. We really need people with the following requirements:

• Foreign language characters used in email / calendar (like russian, japanese, chinese, etc)
• Non-US date format (dd/mm/yyyy vs mm/dd/yyyy)
• Timezones on the positive side of GMT (east of GMT)

Others will be considered as well, but that’s our biggest need at the moment as the next version is really aimed at getting our non-US timezone and language support shored up.

If you’re interested, please send an email to betarequest@jimmymooney.com letting us know

• Which of those requirements you fulfill (if any)
• What you consider your approximate technical aptitude (it helps for testing purposes to be able to explain what you’re experiencing)
• The UUID from your iPhone (when plugging in your phone to iTunes, click on the serial number field).

Know that this version has not had a lot of tweaks to the networking code, so if you’re one of the folks that has had trouble getting it to work because of a server incompatibility please wait to respond for a subsequent announcement. This is mostly for foreign-language testers and non-US timezone and date formats. {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2008:index.php/site/index/4.25 2008-11-26T15:16:14Z 2009-09-12T00:17:15Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com
We’re looking to go into beta on it in the coming week or two, and expect to submit to Apple soon after that. {extended} ]]> tag:jminteractive.com,2008:index.php/site/index/4.26 2008-10-15T16:17:56Z 2009-09-12T00:17:57Z Jimmy jimmy@jminteractive.com
