I think I've found a work around which I picked up from another post, though I don't remember where. Try saying "tee-oh dee-oh". I find that it generally works.

Michael replied on February 03, 2008 23:23 to the question "Scheduling a monthly todo" in I want Sandy:

I hope Sandy's Helpers weigh in because I find the issue confusing. If I don't update the item as "done" then it will keep showing up in my daily digest as a "todo" item. But it seems that if I don't mark it "done" then Sandy reschedule the item for the following month.

Don't have the phone, but have the iPod touch, and love it. The Jan software update added several key applications. I hope for more.

Scheduling a monthly todo

Suppose that I have tagged a "todo" item with a "monthly" tag, say, for Feb 4. I take it this means that Sandy will schedule the task for the 4th of every month. If so, once I've completed the task in one month what do I tell Sandy so that she reschedules the event for the next month?

Indeed. Perhaps the Sandy reps will notice.

Michael replied on January 28, 2008 01:39 to the question "subscribe in outlook 2007 - where is the link on the homepage?" in I want Sandy:

There isn't one. Look though at the bottom of the screen for the ical feed, and click it.

Michael reported a problem in I want Sandy on January 25, 2008 02:48:

Forget command no longer working

Sandy responds to a lookup command by sending me an email with several numbered items. However, if reply by saying

forget #3 (for example)

and then submit the original lookup command, I find that Sandy has not in fact forgotten #3.

Michael replied on January 21, 2008 15:57 to the question "jott tags" in I want Sandy:

I have the same problem, but have better luck if I just say "tag with" before the first tag and then just say the other tags. For instance, say "tag with work money home" with a slight because between the tags to get the following tags @work @money @home.

I still using get a @ all by itself.

I haven't found anyway, though, to dictate the tag todo. No matter what I say I get @to @do.

Michael replied on January 19, 2008 14:09 to the question "Is there a trick to specifying tags via jott?" in I want Sandy:

I've found something that works a bit better. If I want to add, say, the following three tags, work, money, and home. I say, "tag with work money home" In other words, I don't repeat the "tag with" and I don't use "and" between the tags. It works most of the time.

How secure is Sandy?

Remember passwords, account log-ons, etc., are things I need help in remembering, but how confident can I be that Sandy is secure?

Michael asked a question in I want Sandy on January 16, 2008 12:24:

How do I exclude @done items when doing a lookup?

I'm assuming I can "forget" them, but it would be nice to be able to, say, archive done items.

Marshall, I tried your suggestion, but didn't get better results, unfortunately.

Michael asked a question in I want Sandy on January 15, 2008 12:25:

When I customize the daily digest by adding other tags to create categories, Sandy pulls in future items. I only want today's items.

Michael replied on January 12, 2008 21:10 to the question "I want Sandy to email me this block of text tomorrow, in 7 days, in 15 days and in 1 month" in I want Sandy:

Put the text in an email to Sandi along with a line that says, "remind me [tomorrow]. Sandy will send the email back to you at the appropriate time at your primary email address.

Michael replied on January 12, 2008 20:56 to the question "Is there a trick to specifying tags via jott?" in I want Sandy:

I find though that if I use more than one tag, say, "tag with work," "tag with Tim," etc. Sandy often gets: @work, @tag, @with, @tim, etc. In fact, something like this almost always happen when I jott Sandy regardless of how careful I try to be in speaking. I've tried "tag as work" or "tagged as work," but it doesn't help.
