Is there a way to sync Omnifocus over to either a Windows or web-based app?

Question

I have Omnifocus on my iPad, iPhone and Macbook. When I'm at work it would be nice to have access to that to-do list while at work on something a bit more accessible than my iPhone screen.

I know that Omnifocus doesn't work on Windows, but I'm wondering if there's a way to sync at least a portion of the todo list to something like Remember the Milk or ToodleDo.

Answer 1

Omnifocus does allow you to sync actions with iCal and iCal sync with a whole bunch of other things (RTM and ToodleDo both do according to their websites).

It might be a bit of a hassle, but I'm afraid this is one of the best (if not the only) options.

If you're having trouble getting OF>iCal going, I suggest you have a look at this forum post on the Omnigroup support forums:

Answer 2

FWIW, I took a quick look at the wiki page and home page for the product. They do not list any kind of an API whereby a developer could reach into your OmniFocus items and do something with them. I do not know if there's some kind of screen-scrape scripting you could do on the Mac itself.

I think your hunt for a sync solution will be a long one.

Try Spootnik. It provides several things, all of which are wonderful:

1. Over the air sync between iPad, iPhone and Mac.
2. An email address to which you can send a new inbox item.
3. A web based interface to manage your stuff (works fine in Windows).
4. Connectivity to Basecamp. (I don't use this feature).
