#Apple #iOS15 #Reminders
You can link from calendar to reminders or notes etc (and this method works on iPhone too) by clicking into title of calendar entry (you may need to use the edit function) and highlighting whole title, then tap again to bring up cut/copy/paste menu - then tap the arrow on the rhs to bring up share, tap share and you can get the link into wherever you would like it to go.
OMIGOD, didn’t know about this!
Thank you for sharing that, Marisa.
You can also get the sharing link for a note or reminder and paste it into the calendar URL or note
@@jamesashby4334 Thanks for sharing that, James.
This is the exact video I want every non-apple user to watch, so that they can understand the power of software integration & its ecosystem. Appreciating your efforts. Thanks 😊
Glad you found it helpful and thank you for watching.
Appreciate the time you took to put this together. I work almost exclusively from an iPad because it’s a great device.
I would love to see more “Working with Apple” videos
Same here. ipad has become my main laptop/computer for the past year and I continue to fall in love with the experience more and more even started fully embracing the apple pencil 2.
I'm working on a few more videos.
This is awesome! I’m always enjoying the innovation that Apple has with its products!
I totally agree, Demetri.
You can even print an email to notes. Then instead of having a link you have an actual pdf in the note. The pdf is downloadable. It pretty cool.
That's right. And you can then annotate the email in Notes.
@@Carl_Pullein it’s slightly convoluted as to how it’s done as it involves printing, then selecting the pdf, then sharing but it’s an awesome feature. Once you figure it out. 👍
I am indian your advice very thanks you
You're welcome.
Carl, thanks for this video. Very helpful. What happens to the email link in Notes and Reminders if you later delete the email from the Mail app?
Carl Pullein for president! You have helped me to improve my productivity with 250%!
Hahaha Thank you :-)
I haven’t tried it yet but this sounds like links to email instead of the email itself inside Notes indicates that it’s not compatible with inbox-zero. Seems like if you delete or move the email, the link isn’t going to work…so the email has to stay in Inbox forever.
The link still works even if you move to another folder, but you are right you can’t delete.
Hi Terry, you can move the email anywhere. I suspect it will break the link if you delete it completely, though.
Excellent video! I have been struggling with exactly these problems lately and you have just provided me with the solutions. Thank you!
Glad to have been able to help, Michael.
Carl, I noticed today that you can’t transfer an email THREAD into Notes. If you want to transfer a number of related emails, you have to transfer each individually. This can be a pain if there are several emails you want transferred at the same time.
@@mpclair That's correct. Hopefully, you wouldn't want to send too many full threads to Notes. After all, you do have the thread in your email.
Thank you; using the same method I found that you can add other things such as contacts photos and RUclips videos (select title)
That true. It's surprising what you can drag and drop using the iPad.
This is very useful, thank you !!!!!
Now the only thing I\m missing is to link contacts into reminders and notes. I haven’t find any way of doing that
I agree, Sten. I wish Apple would do something with Contacts. It's not been touched for years.
Many of us old folks miss the palm OS dearly, the predecessor to smart phones. That may be what people are asking about that you kinda didn’t describe. It had a few cool features, if you named a person, or phone number in a call note, a task, map (address), or a calendar, you could see all related items. So if you took regular call notes, and three months later a person called you back about an order or whatever, you could click links and see ALL calls, appointments, notes or whatever that matched that contacts info. It wasn’t perfect, if you had say a dozen contacts at Microsoft, and had their main 800 number on each contact, they all got linked together with each other, all calls, all notes, all appointments.
I for one would LOVE to see this feature!
Sadly, Apple seems to have neglected Contacts over the years. I guess it’s because of smart contacts. Type a person’s name or the start of an email address, and the system will automatically complete it for you.
@@Carl_Pullein 😳
Your videos have been very helpful. Thanks.
Glad to have been able to help, Dion.
I use the cross linking a lot - but quite often I don’t get either of them directly through More. I the a way I can modify the links available ?
Not at the moment. What we have now is all we have, I'm afraid.
I’m running iPad OS 16.5.1 on an early iPad Pro but I have no “Copy Link” option on the share facility. Do you have any idea as how to get it?
It's changed in iOS16 - now you need to "collaborate", put your email address in and then copy link.
I am unable to drag and drop my apple note into Reminders on my Mac. Am I doing something wrong? I was able to drop and drop my email into Reminders on my Mac but not a apple note.
Thanks for this game changer
Glad you like it, Steven.
🙏🏼Carl, also asking "Hey Siri remind me of this later" feature I'm finding very helpful
Yes, it's a great little tip.
Brilliant, thank you
How can this be done on an iPhone?
Ho Joseph, I haven't tested that yet, but, Marisa Whitfield left a comment below explaining how to do it on the iPhone.
Apple is such a tease. Giving us the ability to drag and drop notes to create pretty links, but not within notes. Why Apple, why? Just let us link notes this easily!
Ah, I know exactly how you feel there, Sean.
When I'm dragging an email from mail to notes I don't get a link. I get a box with a link. Any ideas?
I'm not sure what you mean. Are you getting a link?
Well, that was handy. I have subscribed
Thank you!
Thanks Carl, great tip
Thank you. Glad you liked it, Ibraim
Carl, now that we’ve figured out Calendar sharing with other other Apple apps (i.e., Reminders), can you share any interesting ideas because I feel that if it’s on my calendar somewhere it tends to get done (even if calendars are technically for events and not tasks)?
Hi Dev, I don't ever recommend adding tasks to a calendar, ever. It creates duplication and adds unnecessary complexity to your system. Either use Reminders for tasks and your calendar for events or use only your calendar for both events and tasks. But don't duplicate.
For whatever reason, I wasn’t able to move an email as easily from Gmail to my notes and reminders. I had to literally copy/paste the email to m notes and reminders. Opting the link from notes did work.
We may have to wait until Google update their Gmail app before we can do that.
Help please: Working on MacBook (not iPad) > dropped and email in a reminder. When I click on the 'email link' it opens the email .........but I can't find the conversation/thread ---------- it opens the conversation/thread on the iPad,,,, but not on desktop... any ideas on how to view the conversation/thread on the desktop?
Hmm, Hi Jesse, not sure why you cannot do that. I just tried it and it works fine on both MacBook and iPad. It opens the thread.
I hope this feature comes to MacOS
Me too.
Um, my reminders always appear on my calendar and i cant make it stop
That's interesting. Not sure how you got that to happen.
You're the best !
Thank you, Rémi :-)
Hi Carl, I am loving your videos on the Apple System. Thank you! I notice that on both Reminders and Notes, when you select an item a toolbar comes up at the bottom of your screen and you can select tags, flags, etc. I don't have this on my iPad Pro running iOS 15.3.1 and I can't find how to get it to show up. Am I missing something?
It shows up when you are editing a task. If it does show then, I'm not sure what the problem is. Often the best thing to do is to quit the app, shut down, then restart. That usually clears any bugs.
@@Carl_Pullein I found it. I had keyboard shortcuts (in settings) turned off. Thanks.
Can I add an Apple FILE to reminders on my IPad?
Yes, you can, Mark. Open the files app in split view on your iPad and drag the file you want onto the task in Reminders.
Wow. Now if there was a way to make Contacts a viable CRM...the ecosystem would be truly valuable. Any thoughts?
Ah, we can wish! Perhaps I need to take another look at contacts and see what can be done with it.
Linking of notes/emails into reminders is an epic tip! The link even displays and works back on desktop in MacOS. But I can't seem to create a link like that while on in MacOS in the same way, is that correct? Would be too bad if I had to run for my iPad every time I wanted to create one of those links. :/
EDIT: Never mind, I found it. Instead of dragging the email from the list (as you do in iOS), in MacOS you drag from the email itself (in the viewer pane).
Glad you found it.
The click-able link for ios notes is not available on ios 16.2
Interesting. It's working for me. It's a bit messy on a iPhone (need a lot of fingers) but it does still work.
@@Carl_Pullein My old notes which I had put in reminders using the link work just fine. Linking a new note is the challenge for me since the link doesn't seem to come up. I guess this will be fixed (at least on my end) in the next IOS update.
Is to do better then reminders? Since that reminders is not the one he uses on a daily basis.
That depends on you. Reminders is solid and does a great job. It's all-out finding the right one for you.
You should be able to link reminders to calendar events because about 95% of the time I have items that need to be done that are associated with that event. I can’t be the only one who works like this. It really boggles the mind that the excuse given is duplication which is more specific than the use case I describe.
Hi Jamie, you can drag and drop a reminder into the notes section of the event if you have a task associated with the event. It's not a direct link, it will just copy the task, but it is possible. But the "duplication" thing is not an excuse. It's real and is causes so much overwhelm that no company I know of does it. It's been tried, tested ad-nausium.
Are you sure that this was also not already possible under iOS 14?
Some of these features were in iOS14, but were not very clear. Apple's made some significant improvements here.
do you use the native app on the imac trying to break from gmail
I do. I’ve used the native email app for around 20 years now. Very solid. Very dependable.
@@Carl_Pullein hi can you do a video on how to use the native app coming from g mail.
You are talking about the native mail app and gmail service, which are two different things. You can use Gmail off the native mail app, which I think these features will still work
Thanks for this. Good stuff! It looks like it works great on the iPad but there’s not a way to the same on the iPhone.
Hi David, there will be a way and I am currently looking into it. Most of these features have been optimised for the iPad because Apple sees the iPad as a productivity device. Once I find the way to do it on the iPhone, I will of course do a video on it.
@@Carl_Pullein Looking forward to it. Thanks for making these videos!
can you use time stamps please
Sorry, with everything else I do, I don't have time to add those.
CLICK!!! Light come on, finally.... `Share > Copy Link' on a note to get a link to put in another note to hyperlink two notes. While I'm a tagger and tags can relate many to one, they sure don't do well with one to one. Now Apple needs to fix tags so they suggest while typing which would make them work so much better....
Glad to have been of help, Gary.
Have you any idea why some mails cannot be linked to Reminders? It simply does nothing when I drag and drop it.
I'm afraid I don't. I've tested this on my iPad and never had a problem.
Fantastic video ⚡️❤️👊
Thank you, MaiKai. Glad you like it.
IOS15 on my iPad - seriously?
Feedback:
0:40 It’s “iPad OS 15”, not “iOS 15 on my iPad”. iPad OS 15 is a separate operating system to iOS with exclusive features that are kept from iOS 15, which is the Operating System for iPhone.
- It’s not “command paste” - it is “paste”, for which the keyboard short cut is “command V”. There is no keyboard key for paste so “command paste” is wrong.
Than you for the corrections, Jonny.
I really like Apple reminders and use it all the time but I’ve noticed that when you start to really use Apple reminders with all the functions that they allow like Geo tagging uploading pictures and documents and reminders for time-based locations that the watch only has so much storage and you can really clog it up and I’ve had to stop using Apple reminders and using the iCloud sync because there’s no way to delete the Apple Reminders app on the Apple Watch. I wish there was a fix where you could only select certain groups that you wanted synced to the Apple Watch allowing you to keep the iCloud sync but since Apple doesn’t allow you to delete the Apple Reminders app I had to break the syncing functionality and it’s really frustrating please Apple fix this.
Now nothing pairs fluidly between my watch my phone my tablet and my computer it’s super lame. @apple #pleasefixthis
Ooh, wasn't aware of that problem. Hope it gets fixed soon.
@@Carl_Pullein you have a great following hopefully it get the word out. I had to move to Google Tasks and sad I am. It in my Apple ecosystem.
