What is it?

Meeting Maker is the calendaring solution used by the University. PSU maintains a centralized Meeting Maker Server which keeps track of individual calendars.  Access to the server is by means of a Meeting Maker Client (which either resides on your local computer) or by a web-based interface.  You need to be provided with a Meeting Maker Account in order to access your calendar on the server.  Meeting Maker allows users to grant proxy access
to other users' calendars.

It should be noted that Meeting Maker also provides other functionality, such as an address book and todo lists.  Its primary use at PSU, however, is as a calendaring tool.

Meeting Maker is developed by PeopleCube.

How to get a Meeting Maker Account

A unit within OIT provides Meeting Maker accounts.  You may goto their Request Form. 

Meeting Maker client software

Windows

A native Meeting Maker client is available for Windows. TheCAT provides a ready-to-use install of Meeting Maker in our default Tier 1 or 2 Windows loads. 

If you wish to install the client on your Tier 3 Windows box, follow the download instructions at the OIT website. 

Macintosh

A native Meeting Maker client is available for MacOS 10.1 and later.  Follow the download instructions at the OIT website. 

Solaris/Linux

PeopleCube no longer develops a client for Solaris.  There is no client for Linux at this time either. 

Web Access to Meeting Maker

A platform independent, web-based interface to Meeting Maker is available at:

        https://calendar.pdx.edu

It provides the same functionality as the native clients, albeit with web-based user interface semantics.  Although slower than the native clients, the web access to Meeting Maker requires no local software installs and is useful when you don't have access
to your own desktop.

If you are using a Palm device:

Windows: After installing Meeting Maker 8.7, then download and install the file "Palm-Conduits-MM-8.7-Win.exe" This will allow you to use your Palm based PDA.

Mac: The Palm conduits are already included in the installation folder, no further software is needed.

Tier 3 Windows users may also follow the same instructions.

Sync'ing is also available for non-PalmOS devices (a la Pocket PC).  Contact us for details.
