- works properly
- is easy to use
- has a dedicated developer
Too bad it's so ugly it'll make your eyes bleed. I'd definitely buy it for a friend if it wasn't so out of place next to her shiny new iPhone.
As such, it would be like giving someone a crummy soviet military bag to wear on an evening dress. Worse actually, military bags tend to be ugly but still well designed.
Note to would-be interface designers: yes, it's obvious when you copy iTunes' layout (maybe that makes it easy to use); but no that doesn't count as design and oh boy, how easy it is to spot a Windows developer. You can just hear them talk up some shipping interface no Mac dev would even use as a mockup: "here, look, just like iTunes".
Don't take it the wrong way, but if you want to sell at that price to the Mac market, you definitely need an interface designer. If you don't notice meaningful differences between your product and the user suggested alternatives, he will.
In the meantime you'll be selling to recent Windows switchers. That may be good enough, but you could do better.

I was able to backup to an external drive. Have not tried any transfers back to my iPAD.
Now, I would recommend TC to iPAD users!

Now it works with my iPod. It knows my iPad is present, but, does not load any of it's data!
On their web site it says it works with any iPad.
I received an Email today from tech support. They have KB articles about TC and database problems- and, though not mentioned, in today's Email they say the recommendations are only for the PC. They know about this problem with Macs and are working on it. They offered me a refund! I do not want a refund.
I like the program, but, would not recommend it for Mac iPad users at until it works with my iPad!

Anyway, down to the review. The lack of a progress bar is rather annoying, but the program did everything that was expected. iPod Touch/iPhone support is a major plus, and though somewhat simplistic, the interface was very user-friendly and easy to navigate. A very recommendable program.

TVALLEAU ............, but I gave my 5G iPod to my wife, and........
SONICHOWLER ........ Sorry, I just feel it's important to have the facts straight.
I agree with SONICHOWLER, it is important . But of course in today's liberalistic society he could be right :=) + LOL

It's apparently a Java app, or some other kind of Windoz port, because it offers almost _zero_ feedback while it's working (one of my favorite complaints about Windows software. People have to just assume the software is working, as there is generally no progress bar; not spinning cursor... nothing... drives me crazy! - and is yet another reason to use Macs.)
So, when it was copying back the games to her computer, I had absolutely no clue at all that it wasn't just locked up. Well, it wasn't... and the software did everything it promised to do.
So, with that one caveat, yes: it works.
(Other products, AFAIK, don't handle _everything_ (such as games))
