上周,微软(Microsoft)宣布了一个新的任务管理应用To-Do,旨在帮助你计划你的一天。微软(Microsoft)似乎很好地利用了Wunderlist的收购,而To-Do是由Wunderlist背后的人设计的。好吧,这也引起了强烈抗议,因为奇妙清单的顾客不确定他们最喜欢的应用程序的未来,而微软待办(Microsoft To-Do)(Microsoft To-Do)让他们想要更多。
好吧,我自己使用Wunderlist已经有一段时间了,虽然To-Do与Wunderlist不同,但它确实具有一些值得一提的功能。只是(Just)为了缓解紧张情绪,让您熟悉本环节的微软待办(Microsoft To-Do),我们将向您展示如何使用微软待办应用(how to use Microsoft To-Do app)。
如何使用微软待办应用
2. 待办事项有什么用?
待办事项可让您巧妙地管理所有日常任务。将其视为保留在您所有设备上的技术先进的便签。您可以为所有事情设置截止日期和提醒时间,还可以将每个待办事项组织到子类别中。所有任务都将存储在Exchange Online服务器上,因此将自动出现在Outlook 任务(Outlook Tasks)中。此外(Furthermore),每个待办事项还将附带一个笔记功能,您可以在其中随意涂鸦并稍后参考。
3. 待办事项对我有什么帮助?
你做什么并不重要,但维护待办事项清单是基本原则之一。在选择任务管理器之前,我曾经在心里记下一些事情,但很快大部分东西都消失了,这导致事情变得更加混乱。待办事项中的智能建议将帮助您完成所有任务,如果您遗漏了一些任务,请不要担心,因为它会出现在明天的待办事项列表中。
4. 如何从Web上的其他应用程序导入您的数据?
值得庆幸的是,待办事项同时支持Wunderlist和Todoist。按照下面列出的步骤,
- 前往设置菜单(Settings Menu)并选择“导入”。
- 确保您签署的Microsoft帐户与您从中导入内容的帐户相同。
- 选择要导入的数据
- 确保(Make)选择并导入您的子任务作为单独的待办事项
- 选择“开始导入”。
5. 哪些帐户可以使用待办事项?
每次我开始使用新服务时,我都会担心注册和维护不同的凭据。就个人而言,我更喜欢使用我的Facebook访问权限来访问这些应用程序,但是再次使用To-Do,您可以使用您的个人Microsoft 帐户(Microsoft Account)。如果您可以使用微软待办(Microsoft To-Do)预览,最好与您的 IT 管理员联系。如果您想管理您的个人Microsoft帐户,可以在此处进行。
6. 如何将您的帐户与微软待办(Microsoft To-Do)同步?
这是微软待办事项(To-Do)最重要的方面之一。如果您使用相同的帐户注册,则可以在各种设备上访问任务管理器。待办事项(To-Do)每 5 秒更新一次,因此所做的更改应该会在 5 秒内出现在所有平台和设备上。如果您的应用由于某种原因未同步,请转到帐户设置并通过选择“同步(Sync)”手动同步(Sync)。
7.微软待办(Microsoft To-Do)如何重置密码(Password)?
由于微软待办(Microsoft To-Do)没有单独的凭据。如果您忘记了个人Microsoft 帐户(Microsoft Account)的密码,可以在此处重置。如果帐户是企业帐户,请听从 IT 管理员的建议。
8. 为什么我会收到一条联系我的 IT 管理员的消息?
可能发生的第一种情况是,如果您的Business Essentials、Business Premium和Enterprise E1、Enterprise E3或 E5 的许可证丢失,或者您没有有效的许可证,此外(Additionally one)还需要Exchange Online邮箱进行存储和同步去工作。如果该消息仍然存在,请联系您的 IT 管理员,因为他们可以更好地进行故障排除。
另一种可能性是您的管理员尚未启用待办事项。(To-Do)如果在O365 管理中心中将(O365 Admin Center)To-DoPreview切换为“关闭(Off)”并且在切换到“打开”状态之前无法安装,也会发生这种情况。
如果您没有兼容的邮箱,也会弹出此消息,因为待办事项(To-Do)预览当前需要Exchange Online邮箱来存储和同步相同的邮箱。对于Exchange,支持以下计划: Exchange Essentials、Exchange Online Kiosk、Exchange Online 计划 1(Exchange Online Plan 1)、Exchange Online(计划 1(Plan 1))、Exchange Online(计划 2(Plan 2))、Exchange Online (P1) 和Exchange Online POP。
9. 如何创建待办事项列表?
这很简单,只需单击“+新列表”,这是位于“我的一天”(My Day)、“待办事项(To-Do)”和其他列表下方的选项。这样做之后,您可以重命名默认命名为“无标题列表”的列表。
10. 如何恢复已删除的待办任务或列表?
需要了解这些列表在Exchange Online和Outlook 任务(Outlook Tasks)中都可用。这使得恢复已删除的列表变得非常容易。
- (Log)使用与待办事项(To-Do)相同的凭据登录Windows桌面应用程序。
- 使用CTRL+6切换到文件夹列表(Folder List),然后展开已删除的项目文件夹;在这里您应该能够看到已删除的Tasks。
- 通过右键单击“已删除文件夹(Folder)”并将文件夹(Folder)移动到“任务(Tasks)”来恢复已删除的文件夹。
11. 建议和我的一天(My Day)如何运作?
建议(Suggestions)和我的一天(My Day)一直是待办事项(To-Do)应用程序的基石,这些功能旨在帮助您专注于手头的重要任务,让待办事项(To-Do)完成其余的工作。智能建议(Suggestions)将建议您一天中的重复任务,您只需选择它们即可开始。待办事项(To-Do)中未完成的任务将持续到第二天,截止日期通知将帮助您以更好的方式管理任务。
12. 如何选择网络列表的背景图片?
这是大多数奇妙清单(Wunderlist)用户都会熟悉的功能。Microsoft To-Do允许你为每个(Microsoft To-Do)To-Do列表选择不同的背景。可以通过选择顶部的三个点然后选择主题(Choose Theme)来更改背景。您可以选择 5 个插图主题之一,甚至可以选择纯色背景。也就是说,与Wunderlist不同,Microsoft To-Do不允许您为背景选择自定义图像,这可能会在未来的更新中得到解决。
总而言之,Microsoft To-Do是Wunderlist的强大替代品,但同样有许多途径人们可能根本不熟悉。更多的是习惯该工具并探索所有添加的新事物。此外,与Microsoft Office(Microsoft Office)的深度集成是因祸得福,尤其是对于企业(Enterprise)用户而言。

How to use Microsoft To Do app
Last week Microsoft announced To-Do a new task management app that aims at helping you plan your day. Microsoft seems to have put the Wunderlist acquisition to good use, and the To-Do is designed by the folks behind the Wunderlist. Well, this has also caused an outcry since Wunderlist patrons are unsure about the future of their favorite app while the Microsoft To-Do has left them wanting for more.
Well, I have been using Wunderlist myself for quite some time, and while the To-Do is not the same as the Wunderlist, it surely does come with a few mention-worthy features. Just to ease the tension and make you familiar with the Microsoft To-Do in this segment, we will show you how to use Microsoft To-Do app.
How to use Microsoft To-Do app
2. What is the use of To-Do?
To-Do lets you manage all your daily tasks with finesse. Think of it as a technologically advanced sticky note that stays on all your devices. You can set due dates and reminder times for everything and also organize each of the to-dos into subcategories. All of the tasks will be stored on Exchange Online servers and thus will automatically appear on Outlook Tasks. Furthermore, each to-do will also come with a note feature wherein you can doodle whatever you like and refer to it later.
3. How is To-Do Helpful for me?
It doesn’t matter what you do but maintaining a to-do list is one of the basic disciplines. Before opting for task managers, I used to make a mental note of things, but soon most of the stuff evaporated and it leads to things getting messier. The intelligent suggestions in the to-do will help you to accomplish all the tasks and if you leave out on some, don’t worry as it will appear on tomorrow’s to-do list.
4. How to import your data from other apps on The Web?
Thankfully the To-Do supports both Wunderlist and Todoist. Follow the steps listed below,
- Head over to Settings Menu and select “Import.”
- Ensure that the Microsoft account with which you have signed is the same as the account from where you are importing stuff.
- Select the data to be imported
- Make sure to select and import your subtasks as separate to-dos
- Select “Start Importing.”
5. Which accounts can you use the To-Do with?
Every time I start using a new service, I am wary of signing up and maintaining separate credentials for the same. Personally, I prefer using my Facebook access for the apps, but again with To-Do, you can use your personal Microsoft Account. It’s better to check with your IT administrator if the Microsoft To-Do preview is available to you or not. In case you want to manage your personal Microsoft account you can do so here.
6. How to Sync your account with Microsoft To-Do?
This is one of the most important aspects of Microsoft’s To-Do. The task manager can be accessed across various devices provided you are signed up with the same account. To-Do updates every 5 seconds, so the changes made should appear across all platforms and devices in a matter of 5 seconds. In case your app is not syncing for some reason, head over to account settings and Sync manually by selecting “Sync.”
7. How to reset your Password on Microsoft To-Do?
Since the Microsoft To-Do doesn’t come with separate credentials. In case you have forgotten the password for your personal Microsoft Account you can reset it here. If the account is an enterprise one, then please follow your IT administrator’s advice.
8. Why do I receive a message to contact my IT admin?
The first scenario this can happen is if your license for Business Essentials, Business Premium and Enterprise E1, Enterprise E3 or E5 is missing or if you don’t have a valid license, Additionally one would also require an Exchange Online mailbox for storage and sync to work. If the message persists, contact your IT administrators as they will be in a better position to troubleshoot.
Another possibility is that the To-Do has not been enabled by your administrator. This will also happen if the To-DoPreview is switched to “Off” in the O365 Admin Center and one cannot install until the switch is toggled to “On” state.
This message will also pop up if you don’t have a compatible mailbox since the To-Do preview currently requires an Exchange Online mailbox for storing and synching the same. When it comes to Exchange the following plans are supported, Exchange Essentials, Exchange Online Kiosk, Exchange Online Plan 1, Exchange Online (Plan 1), Exchange Online (Plan 2), Exchange Online (P1), and Exchange Online POP.
9. How to Create a list on To-Do?
It’s simple, just click on ‘+New List’ which is an option that lies below My Day, To-Do, and the other lists. After doing so, you can rename the list which is named “Untitled List” by default.
10. How to Restore a deleted To-Do task or list?
One needs to understand that the lists are available on both Exchange Online and also Outlook Tasks. This makes it very easy to recover a deleted list.
- Log in to the Windows desktop app with the same credentials as that on To-Do.
- Switch to the Folder List by using CTRL+6 and then expand the deleted items folder; it’s here you should be able to see the deleted Tasks.
- Restore the deleted folders by right-clicking on the ‘Deleted Folder’ and moving the Folder to “Tasks.”
11. How do suggestions and My Day work?
The Suggestions and My Day have been the cornerstone of the To-Do app these features are designed to help you focus on important tasks at hand and let the To-Do do the rest. The intelligent Suggestions will suggest you the recurring tasks for your day, and you can simply begin by selecting them. The incomplete tasks in To-Do will be carried on to the next day, and the due date notifications will help you manage the tasks in a much better way.
12. How can I Pick the background image for a list on the web?
This is a feature that most of the Wunderlist users will be familiar with. Microsoft To-Do lets you choose different backgrounds for each To-Do list. One can change the background by selecting the three dots on the top and then Choose Theme. You can choose one of the 5 illustrated themes or even a solid background. That said, unlike Wunderlist, the Microsoft To-Do doesn’t allow you to choose custom images for background, and this is something that might be taken care of in the future updates.
All said and done the Microsoft To-Do is a formidable replacement for the Wunderlist, but again there are many avenues that one might simply not be familiar with. It’s more of getting used to the tool and exploring all the new things that get added. Also, the deep Microsoft Office integration is a blessing in disguise, especially so for the Enterprise users.
If you face issues while using it, this post will show you how to troubleshoot Microsoft To-Do app problems.
