Quick Entry: Project name doesn't stick? Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Hi all,

I've been having this issue with using Omnifocus for Mac Quick Entry: I open a new Quick Entry, fill in all the fields (action name, project, context and due date), press Enter to save it all and everything gets saved properly EXCEPT for the project name. The action appear to have no project and basically hangs in the Inbox forever.

Is this happening to only me? (I tried searching the forum but didn't find anything). Is it a bug? Any idea how to fix it?

Thanks a lot!

One possibility might be that you are entering the name of a project which does not yet exist - to create a new project in the QE dialog you need to confirm its name with ⌘ return (as prompted by the small tool-tip which pops up).
 
No, that's definitely not it. The problem persists for every project I've ever worked with... :( Really annoying.
 
BTW: am I the only one having this issue? I can't find any mention of this problem anywhere else on the internet. Starting to feel a little lonely with my problem... :(
 
Yikes, you've let this go on for 2 months without contacting support? Use Help->Send Feedback or call them on Monday (1-800-315-OMNI or +1-206-523-4152). The forum isn't guaranteed to get you an answer, but the other routes are.

I would try File->Rebuild Database... while you wait.
 
Yeah, I know.. For some reason, I didn't think about emailing support. Just did it now, will post here the solution, if any.

Thanks!
