The dust is still settling with recent Leopard upgrades on the Mac and some issues and incompatibilities are starting to surface. As I recommended in a previous post, you should try to update all of your Applications prior to installing Leopard, however, this practice is also good AFTER you do the upgrade.
One program that I can’t really live without is Plaxo. It, essentially, allows you:
- to automatically update your address book when your contacts change their info
- to automatically update your contacts address book when your info changes
- sync your changes across multiple platforms and applications
- get birthday notifications
- …and much more
I have a somewhat complex sync setup. My scenario is using Outlook 2007 at work, synching through Plaxo to my Mac iCal and Address book, then synching through iTunes to my iPhone and back and forth. It took me a while to get it all dialed in but now it seems to work ok. (I’m also trying to add in a .Mac computer sync to see how that all works…) So now whenever I make a change to my main calendar, it syncs all the way across to my iPhone and back. It’s really great.
