Keep It 1.3 adds iCloud folder sharing, PDF annotation and more - Published on 03/20/18

UK based Reinvented Software announces Keep It 1.3, an important update to their popular notebook, scrapbook and organizer for macOS. Keep It is ideal for writing notes, saving web links, organizing documents, and finding them again. Available on Mac, iPad and iPhone, Keep It is the successor to Together, a brand new app that preserves the very best of its predecessor, but recast for today and the future. Version 1.3 adds iCloud folder sharing, PDF annotation and more.

Swansea, United Kingdom - Reinvented Software is pleased to announce the release of Keep It 1.3, which adds iCloud folder sharing, PDF annotation, focus on folders, and the ability to edit saved searches, plus improvements to notes, the info view, and more. Keep It is the successor to Together, a brand new app that preserves the very best of its predecessor, but recast for today and the future.

Keep It is a notebook, scrapbook and organizer, ideal for writing notes, saving web links, organizing documents, and finding them again. Available on Mac, iPad and iPhone, Keep It is the destination for all those things you want to put somewhere, confident you will find them again later.

Keep It 1.3 adds iCloud folder sharing, where any top-level folder can now be shared with other Keep It users via iCloud. This version can also focus the sidebar on any folder that contains other folders, bundles or saved searches, hiding all other folders not in the hierarchy, making it ideal for focusing on particular projects.

Keep It 1.3 now allows saved searches to be edited. Complex searches can either be created by combining suggestions in the search field, or both created and edited using a rule-based editor that allows for more options, such as finding all items with dates in a particular period (e.g. the last 7 days), untagged or unlabelled items. In addition, saved searches can now be nested in the folders they target. Saved searches can be created and edited on both Mac and iOS.

It's now possible to add highlights in a variety of colors to PDF documents, and notes to those highlights. There is a new "Where" line that can be shown in the Info view to see the path of the folder in which an item is stored, along with any bundles that contain the item. When highlighting text in notes, there is now the same choice of highlight colors as in PDFs, and it's now possible to drag other items to a note to insert a clickable link to the item.

About Keep It:
Pretty much anything can be added to Keep It, including notes, web links, rich and plain text documents, PDFs, images, or any other kind of file, using drag and drop, its share extension, the Services menu, or a browser bookmarklet. Keep It can also create new files of any type from stationery, and uses iCloud to make everything available across your devices and to share folders and items with others.

Keep It has all the organization tools you could need, including folders, tags, colored labels, and bundles. Keep It stores everything you add as files in folders that you can access in the Finder on Mac or the Files app on iOS 11, and open in other apps for editing. Saving files to these folders will automatically add them.

Building on Together, just about everything in Keep It has been improved or streamlined to work consistently across Mac and iOS, while taking advantage of each platform's unique strengths. Keep It's innovative tag filter that can drill down through combinations of related tags, and works in conjunction with search, which offers suggestions and makes it easy to combine terms. Keep It for Mac's Compact Mode reduces the app to a single column, ideal for using as a floating window, or alongside another full screen app in split view, as you would on iPad.

Pricing and Availability:
Keep It for Mac 1.3 requires macOS 10.12 Sierra or later, and is available as a 15-day trial. A license for Keep It for Mac costs $49.99 (USD), and will include all Keep It Version 1.x updates. Together 3 users can purchase a $24.99 upgrade, or get a free copy if Together 3 was purchased during its final 6 months on sale. Keep It is also available on the Mac App Store, also with a free trial, and a choice of one-time purchases to buy Keep It, upgrade from Together, along with monthly or yearly subscriptions. Keep It for iPad and iPhone is available separately with either monthly ($1.49) or yearly ($9.99) subscriptions.

Twocanoes Software releases Certificate Request for macOS

A new article has been published at prMac.

Twocanoes Software releases Certificate Request for macOS - Published on 03/20/18

Twocanoes Software today introduces Certificate Request, an innovative and powerful utility for the Mac that is used to request and install digital X.509 certificates directly from Active Directory. Certificate Request automatically discovers all the required information from Active Directory. Once authenticated, requesting a digital certificate is a simple as clicking a single button. The digital certificate can be used for configuring wireless, Mail, VPN, or many other services on macOS.

Naperville, Illinois - Twocanoes Software is pleased to announce the release of Certificate Request, an innovative and powerful utility for the Mac that is used to request and install digital X.509 certificates directly from Active Directory. This utility automatically discovers all the required information from Active Directory. Once authenticated, requesting a digital certificate is a simple as clicking a single button. The digital certificate can be used for configuring wireless, Mail, VPN, or many other services on macOS that require certificates issued by Active Directory:

* Native Requests: Certificate Request doesn't require any changes to Active Directory. Certificate requests are sent over standard Windows protocols (DCE/RPC).

* Active Directory binding not required: Certificate Request uses Kerberos to authenticate with Active Directory and doesn't require the Mac to be bound to Active Directory. If the Mac is bound, Certificate Request can use the existing kerberos credentials from login to request a certificate.

* Smart: Certificate Request automatically discovers all of the Active Directory information that is required, including the name of the Active Directory Certificate Authority server, the Certificate Authority name, and all available certificate templates. Certificate Request even downloads the Active Directory Root Certificate automatically and makes it easy to configure the Mac to trust it.

* Keychain or YubiKey: Certificate Request installs digital certificates directly to the standard macOS keychain or YubiKey hardware encryption device. The private key never leaves the keychain or the yubikey, so it is secure.

* Advanced Authentication: Certificate Request automatically detects if a login has already occurred and if credentials available. If there are multiple credentials available, Certificate Request gives the option to select the appropriate one. Certificate Request can also purge all credentials, and certificates use SHA512 hashing and 2048 bit RSA keys.

* Multiple Template Support: Since digital certificates can be used in many different services, Active Directory bundles the settings into Templates. Certificate Request shows all available templates on the Active Directory server and makes it easy to select the appropriate one for the service you require (i.e. VPN, Mail, Wi-Fi, etc).

* Simple, Yet Powerful: When Certificate Request is first launched, all the necessary Active Directory information needed to request a user certificate is automatically populated. Certificate Request is simple and easy to use with your existing Active Directory infrastructure without making any changes.

* Intensely Integrated: Certificate Request doesn't require a proxy or web services to work with your existing Active Directory network. DCE/RPC, a protocol that Windows Servers understand natively, is used to send all certificate requests.

* At Your Service: Configure any services that require digital certificates easily. Certificate Request stores the digital certificate in the secure keychain on macOS, or in a YubiKey hardware device, so services such as VPN, Mail, 802.1X (wireless) and more can easily access them.

* Automate: The Certificate Request command line tool allows administrators to automate certificate requests to Active Directory and installation into the keychain on macOS. The command line tool uses the user's kerberos credentials so that certificate generation can happen seamlessly.

Technical Specs:
* Generates X.509 Digital Certificates
* SHA512 Hash
* RSA 2048 bit keys
* Kerberos Authentication

System Requirements:
* macOS 10.12 or Later
* Active Directory user credentials for a kerberos ticket, or a Mac bound to Active Directory

Windows Server:
* Active Directory (Windows Server 2003 or later)
* Standard Network Ports for LDAP, RPC and Kerberos

YubiKey:
* YubiKey 4 Series Security Keys in PIV mode
* Management Key
* Available Slot for digital identity

Pricing and Availability:
Certificate Request can be purchased online today for $29.99 for a single user, and $299.99 (USD) for 30 users. A free 14 day trial is available on the product webpage. Premium Support and upgrade maintenance for 1 year is included with multi-licensed versions of Certificate Request.

Students write better, well-structured essays with Think2Write

A new article has been published at prMac.

Students write better, well-structured essays with Think2Write - Published on 03/20/18

Niles Technology Group has released Think2Write, the new and improved version of essay writing apps. Think2Write is an easy-to-follow, step-by-step method to teach students the logical and critical steps necessary to consistently write well-reasoned, informative essays. The app delivers increased accessibility across mobile devices and Macs and even more writing assistance at an affordable price. It is also an engaging platform where students learn analytical and critical thinking skills.

Charlottesville, Virginia - Niles Technology Group has released Think2Write, the new and improved version of the essay writing apps Essay Czar, Essay Writing Workstation and Essay Writing Wizard that sold successfully in the Apple App Store for 8 years, from 2009-16. Used in over 400 schools by teachers and personally bought by high school and college students, the apps were listed multiple times as top language arts apps and featured several times in the App Store and other education publications.

Think2Write is bigger and better and delivers a lot more:

* Think2Write is an iBook with the same excellent content from the essay writing apps that has been updated and re-formatted. The new iBook format provides much more versatility where it can be used. Switching from preparing an essay on your mobile device to writing an essay on your Mac with the same instructional content is now a breeze.

* Think2Write is your source for one-on-one writing assistance for students, who want help fully understanding writing assignments and in developing logical, well-structured outlines.

* Think2Write is a platform on which, with one click of a button, a civic-minded citizen or company can sponsor a middle school class, high school class, or sports team where each student receives our one-on-one writing assistance and essay writing guide.

* Think2Write is an engagement platform that delivers a monthly essay writing instructional digest to keep students learning critical thinking skills, as these skills pertain directly to essay writing.

"With the switch to Think2Write in the iBook format, students now have the identical instructional content with the same look and feel on mobile devices, desktop computers and laptops. Students can also seamlessly write essays with the iBook open side-by-side on the same Mac as their main word processor, which is something they could not do with the mobile-only app," explained Michael Niles, President of Niles Technology Group. "Our mobile apps put us on the essay writing map for iPad and iPhone, but we realized the apps simply were not enough; we needed to work and look the same on Macs as well. Therefore, we solved the issue with a new approach and business model that deserved a new name, Think2Write."

The iBook is also the gateway to a community dedicated to the teaching of essay writing from a critical thinking perspective. It became clear, based on interaction with users, that the aforementioned essay writing apps were developing a fledging community of teachers and parents who desired a critical thinking approach to writing for their students and children. It was amazing how many asked for more writing assistance on an ongoing basis.

"This community aspect led us to create and develop a Think2Write Patreon portal," continues Mr. Niles. "Combined with the iBook, this community builder allows us to offer more. Users can now easily decide which other essay writing services best fit them for what length of time; a very student-friendly, family-friendly, budget-friendly approach."

To herald the start of this new community, Think2Write's first 200 patrons on Patreon will receive one of the following upgrades: you will either be automatically upgraded and receive the benefits of the next level up in rewards or, if you are a sponsor of students, the number of sponsorships will be automatically doubled. These upgrades will remain in place for as long as you are a patron.

Think2Write is an easy-to-follow, step-by-step method to teach students the logical and critical steps necessary to consistently write well-reasoned, informative essays.

Device Requirements:
* iPad with iBooks 2 or later iOS 5 or later
* iPhone with iOS 8.4 or later
* Mac with OS X 10.9 or later

Pricing and Availability:
Think2Write (v1.4) is $4.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Writing category. We invite you to learn more about us at Think2Write online. For more information, please contact Michael Niles.
