Milestone Reminder is a utility to manage and organize family's, friend's and associate's birthdays, anniversaries, and other dates. Seamlessly integrates with Address Book and iCal.

Birthday Reminder was the original name of the application. It has been superseded by Milestone Reminder. Milestone Reminder is able to retrieve all dates contained in your Address Book, not only birthdays.

Here are some key features of "Milestone Reminder":

· Integration with Apple's Address Book. A person's information is obtained from your Address Book.
· Ability to directly view and/or edit a person's card within the Address Book.
· Gradual highlighting for approaching birthdays.
· Intelligent exporting of birthdays to iCal. However, you do not need to export to iCal to see approaching birthdays.
· If you add/update a person's information, existing events in iCal will be updated to reflect those changes on your next export.
· Ability to move events into other iCal calendars.
· The Reminder Table is automatically refreshed to reflect the current date. (i.e. detects a date rollover at midnight.)
· Support for all dates entered in your Address Book cards.

Requirements:

· Address Book
· Recommended Software: iCal

Limitations:

· Until you register, Milestone Reminder or Birthday Reminder will export a maximum of ten events to iCal.
