Meeting Minutes and Green Vegetables

What do Meeting Minutes and Green Vegetables have in common?

An analogy occurred to me whilst participating in an "effective meetings" program. One of the recommendations given at the end of the exercise was that we need to produce minutes for all meetings. It occurred to me that this is like telling a child they must eat their green vegetables. Yes, we all know they are good for us, but that doesn't make them any easier to take. As you may know, the key to getting the vegetables off the plate is to make it fun. That is where CAAP enters the picture. CAAP is an integrated add-in for Microsoft® Outlook® for taking and publishing meeting minutes. I wouldn't go so far as suggest CAAP makes taking minutes fun, but CAAP definitely makes taking minutes less of a chore.

I am looking for Beta testers to help shape this tool. You can learn more and download the tool here: http://tpassist.com/caap.

Beta Testing CAAP

We are inviting beta testers of our latest software tool. If you are using Microsoft® Outlook® to organise and manage meetings, this tool will save you time. You can find out more, watch a video and download the add-in via our website: http://tpassist.com/caap.

MindManager add-ins Update

Whilst we are doing our best and are in contact with Mindjet®, unfortunately, we have not been able to get TPAssist 2007 or TPAssist Capture working correctly with the latest and previous versions of MindManager® (aka Mindjet® for Windows v11 or MindManager® v14). The add-ins still integrates fully with MindManager® v6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.

TPAssist Licensing Changes

We have changed the licensing options for TPAssist 2007.  We now only offer the Perpetual Product License.  This license entitles you to download and use patches and minor updates (i.e. Version 1.1, Version 1.2 etc).  We are no longer offering subscription based licensing.  We have also reduced our product pricing.  You can see the new details on our Store page.


Existing subscription license will continue to enable the product.  When these subscriptions expire, you will need to purchase a Perpetual Product License.

Known Issues - TPAssist 2007 v1.8.7 installer with Mindjet for Windows (v11.1.353)

There is an issue with the installer with Mindjet for Windows (v11.1.353).  After installing TPAssist and launching Mindjet for Windows, you will get an error suggesting the Add-in can't be loaded.  The same error occurs if in MindManager, you go to the File Menu, choose Options, then select the Add-Ins tab, and then check “TPAssist Add-in for Mindjet for Windows”, click Ok.

We are working to try and isolate the cause of the issue.

For now, the best advise we can give is to down grade your version of MindManager (i.e. version 10) and re-install TPAssist add-ins.
