LFS:Mac User Checklist

Mail

Outlook for Mac is better than Mail; I went so far to install parallels and outlook for Windows. I have several things that I find very annoying on the Mac. e.g. Notes attached to a meeting request ‘disappear’ once I accept the meeting. I have asked people that send me invites to send a separate email so that I have a record of agenda and time/location in case anything happens to the appointment in my calendar (which I dont have control over usually; the initiator can delete it if they choose)

Calendar

I use ‘Fantastical’ and use Exchange for work and google calendar for personal items. I dont use iCal at all.

Contacts

I still suffer with this one.

Passwords

I use 1Password as a password manager.
