I think I get the inbox thing. I create tasks on my tablet and phone and they end up in the inbox (like any gtd app I used in the past) Then i need to actually move it to another folder. My original problem was I didn't have another folder OUTSIDE of the inbox now I do as in figure MLO 1A Now however there are some projects in my inbox I can't seem to get rid of. If I delete them from the inbox they delete from the projects area. It's as if they are LINKED to the inbox. see the images MLO1 and MLO2 Thanks
