<item><p><em>How do I save the changes to the task that I just edited?</em></p>
21
<p>You do not need to save the changes to the task as <app>GTG</app> does that automatically while you write.</p>
24
<item><p><em>I cannot activate some of the GTG plugins.</em></p>
25
<p>Sometimes there are missing dependencies that impede the activation of the plugin. <app>GTG</app> will try to identify and list all the missing dependencies in bold below the deactivated plugin description, so you can install them.</p>
28
<item><p><em>Is there a way to setup a "waiting task" (in cases I am waiting for somebody/something else to happen before I can proceed with the task?</em></p>
29
<p>Here is a possible workflow:</p>
31
<item><p>Set the <gui>start date</gui> in the future taking in consideration how long do you want to wait.</p></item>
32
<item><p>Create a special tag like @wait, @delegate and edit the properties of this tag so the tasks with it do not appear in the <gui>Work View</gui>.</p></item>
33
<item><p>Set the <gui>due date</gui> to <gui>sometimes</gui>.</p></item>
39
<item><p><em>Can I make a backup of my tasks in case of the computer crash?</em></p>
41
<p>GTG makes an automatic backup of yours tasks and in the latest release it even detects a faulty tasks database and automatically restores the latest version from backup. For the manual procedure check this wiki page:</p>
