This is where the magic fibers are spun between messages. MailTags is activated by a click or keyboard shortcut to reveal an input panel. Basic searching in Mail.app is very good, but with a decade worth of emails and several mail accounts it can be daunting to find a single message. MailTags connects my email to projects, dates and contexts. MailTags, by Indev Software, provides the connective tissue that binds mail to the real world for me. It lacks gusto.įortunately, with a few third party plugins, Mail.app can be a serious email cruncher and make it a 99% tool. But the pure Mail.app experience lacks automated filing, tagging and grouping of related messages. Occasionally I can even find old mail when I need it. Mail.app works: mail comes in and mail goes out.

#MAILTAGS YOSEMITE HOW TO#
It explains how to take notes, write, present, email, organize files, schedule, manage projects, tasks and time - in a faster, easier and more entertaining way with or without a Mac. Macademic is a blog about being a more productive academic. I understand the paradigm of leaving originals untouched when it comes to photos, but it sure would be nice if photo applications recognized mavericks tags in the same way they do IPTC or exif metadata. Lightroom does this even more easily, as does GraphicConverter. Applying a “keyword” in iPhoto isn’t the same as tagging that jpeg with the same word in Aperture at least you can apply a keyword and write it to the file manually.

I just wish that the image world would be on board since as Tom noted “keyword” and “tag” can be applied generically it’s confusing. MailTags is getting there (I’ve been using a beta, and it basically works, although MAIL certainly has issues). And all the Ironic Software stuff runs great with the new Mav Tags, as does HoudahSpot.

I’ve been having problems with Punakea even running. The caseapps Tags application still doesn’t, but TagIt does. I have no problem with Mavericks tags in DevonThink now.Īnd Default Folder X was just updated to do Mavericks tags. I don’t know what Apple has had to say about copying files to other OSes and ow tags will or will not follow. For a search from the Finder or HoudahSpot or Leap to work, that NAS drive has to be indexed with spotlight. When you set a tag on a file, it resides in the ‘extended attributes’ on that file. OpenMeta started it, but it will take Adobe a while (perhaps never), while timelines for smaller companies will be faster. Just refer to them as tags.Įvernote and DevonThink and Adobe (bridge) use their own internal tagging format (as far as I know), but I think when Apple has stated that they will use tagging in Mavericks that things will get better aligned. I think its not all that useful to differentiate between tag formats used on older OSes, like 10.8.

Tags are tags applied by products like Leap, HoudahSpot, 10.9 Finder, etc. They are stored under a different key in the Spotlight database from tags, and need a different search to find them. The Finder cannot change these tags – they are fixed. Keywords are ‘built in tags’ – in other words a PDF can come from its source with tags embedded in the document. However, HoudahSpot can migrate OpenMeta to Mavericks tags to mail messages as well (see above). Mavericks tags cannot be assigned to email from within Apple Mail. MailTags assign OpenMeta, not Mavericks tags to email messages. Leap search handles both OM and Mavericks tags. Earlier versions of Leap tagged with OpenMeta – so if you used these for tagging you may want to merge them using HoudahSpot or another tool. Leap (version 3.x) allows to assign Tags which are both OM and Mavericks. Neither did assigning tags in DevonThink result in these tags being available in Finder (although perhaps Finder just does not see them yet – see above). The reverse process did not work for me: exporting documents from DevonThink did not export tags (although one could add tags as in any Save dialogue in OS X – but what’s the point then?). Indeed, I was able to tag a file in OS X and then import it into DevonThink with preserving that tag. DevonThinkĭevondThink 2.6 and higher advertise that it both imports Mavericks tags and exports with such tags.

Save dialogue supported by DefaultFolder X 5.
