You have probably been working off line on your iPad and created a new Mindjet for iPad map. Now you are online you want to move it to Dropbox to transfer it to another device e.g. your PC to continue editing in MindManager. This video shows you how to do this.
If you are not using Mindjet Connect with MindManager you can disable the login attempts and hide the toolbar buttons.
Go to File > Options > Mindjet Connect and untick the boxes. This will stop attempts to connect to Connect on start up.
You can also remove Mindjet Connect from the status bar. Right click the bottom bar and untick Mindjet Connect and the Connection Button.
Why would you want to? All the map templates provided by Mindjet have Mindjet as the author. When you use a template map this information is not changed to your name. If you send a map to someone Mindjet is the author not you.
How do you do it:
No – if you use Safari. Flash and Apple don’t mix.
Yes – if you install the Photon Browser. Click the Flash button in the toolbar prior to loading the page with flash in it and this browser switches to an image relaying service. You can load the Files page but before opening a map, tap the flash icon. The page is browsed by Photon’s computer and the image relayed to your device. I did not see any reduction in the speed of browsing or image quality (once I increased the bandwidth setting to 3).
Why would you when there is a Mindjet Connect app for the ipad / iPhone? Because the browser has more functionality and will display more content from your desktop maps.
Of course you need to be online for this to work.
It’s because your web server does not know about MindManager files. The download process looks at the first lines of a file to identify its type. A MindManager file says it is a zip file. Change the file extension of a MindManager file to .zip and you will see it contains several files. The data and configuration of the map is in the XML file, there will be style files and image files, as well as others.
If you think you have received a MindManager file which has the zip extension, change it to .mmap or one of the others shown below. It should then open in MindManager.
The solution is to add at least the first line of the following code to your .htaccess file in the home folder of your web server (or advise the web site owner). If you are having similar problems with recent versions of MS Office files, add the rest. This declares the file types to your web server and any browser that tries to download the file. Now the vistors will be offered the option to save the file with the correct extension or open with MindManager, if it is installed on their client.
Add the following to .htaccess:
AddType application/vnd.mindjet.mindmanager .mmp .mmap .mmpt .mmat .mmmp .mmas
AddType audio/mpeg .mp3
AddType application/vnd.ms-word.document.macroEnabled.12 .docm
AddType application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document docx
AddType application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.template dotx
AddType application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.template.macroEnabled.12 potm
AddType application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.template potx
AddType application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.addin.macroEnabled.12 ppam
AddType application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.slideshow.macroEnabled.12 ppsm
AddType application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.slideshow ppsx
AddType application/vnd.ms-powerpoint.presentation.macroEnabled.12 pptm
AddType application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.presentationml.presentation pptx
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel.addin.macroEnabled.12 xlam
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.binary.macroEnabled.12 xlsb
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel.sheet.macroEnabled.12 xlsm
AddType application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet xlsx
AddType application/vnd.ms-excel.template.macroEnabled.12 xltm
AddType application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.template xltx
Yes.
Why would you?
To see 3 maps
To watch others co-editing whilst preparing a new map on the same project
To check that everything is being updated
To see the differences between the displayed content on the three platforms. MindManager 2012 can have more displayed objects e.g. Alerts, Outlook links – which won’t be visible on other platforms but are still in the map’s database.
This my understanding supported by some experimentation.
I think the free mobile versions need to be online to access and create maps. They use Connect as their file store.
You can connect to the Connect file store from MindManager 2012. You have the choice of storing maps there or on your local/network drives and of course making copies (I would).
Either application can edit maps stored on Connect. You can also share 2 maps at a time with others for editing. You can let other users view but not edit all the maps on Connect.
However I have experienced maps being locked from editing when I think shouldn’t be and problems with saving maps after editing.
Mindjet say the take up of the free products has exceeded their expectations and they are addressing the issues this has raised.
The easy way when in Safari is press the download button and you get iThoughtsHD as an option.
If you are in another app, see if you can switch to Safari e.g. From Hootsuite and possibly paper.li, then press the download button.
No. Password protected files are not supported based on my trials today.
This is what happens for me in the Mindmanager 2012 Desktop Client:
When I open a New Map, right click the map name and then Rename, my typing is not changing the name!
Open the map edit the Central Topic or add a topic and “Save” the map.
Return to the Mindjet Connect Manager window and the map Rename works.
