What a miserable pile of crap this software is. I love the remote, but Logitech seems intent on putting no effort into building a decent application for programming their remotes. The only consolation I see is that you rarely have to use it.

Good news everyone !!

Logitech Harmony software is available in version 7.8 on the Logitech website since April 17th 2012. Compatible with OSX 10.7 :-)

The bad news is that it's still the same UI so awful to use :-(
It's still a 32Bits software... but no need to restart the whole system in 32bits :-)
Surprisingly I used it during 1 hour and no crash. So... maybe some little improvements for the stability ?!

I don't know if someone from Logitech would ever read that one day but never mind, let's try :

You from Logitech : you do interesting devices for little users like me but you do sh.t when come the time to make a software. So let's kill 1 device that don't sell well (you should probably find an old webcam or gamepad that nobody want) and with the money saved in not producting it let's hire a good software developer !!
Thanks !

Hello - 2012, Lion is a 64 bit OS! This nasty thing makes me reboot the machine in 32 bit mode (not just run the program in 32 bits)to use this software. Ugh!

Hand down the ugliest, clunkiest, most un-Mac like junk software I've ever used.

I wish my ATI wonder worked in 10.7....I really miss it!

On 10.6.8 with an Harmony ONE, the software is working "fine" (meaning it's working but it's a software which is outdated from 1995 in his design/user interface/functionality).

The software does what it has to do (hum...), it's ugly, complicated and absolutely not user-friendly. SHAME ON YOU LOGITECH ! In an other hand the remote is great. But I hate the software !!

QUESTION : 
I spent hours and hours doing all my configurations for all my devices and activities... and it was really boring using this crapware :-( But now it's done and working fine on my remote :-) In some weeks (days ?) I will upgrade (clean install I hope) to OSX Lion and would know the way for me to make a backup of my settings from Logitech Software ? Is there any specific ".plist" file to save ?? If someone knows the answer it would save me days and days... and not only for me but also for all other people who have to use Logitech Harmony Software because there is no other alternative :-(

Thanks

Let's reply to myself after finding the answer to my question :
The user profile I've created at the beginning store my remote's settings on the Logitech computers. So when I start with a new Mac with a new Logitech software, I enter my username and every settings are there :-)

I cannot even get the software to start up properly. It says checking for updates, then finished, then I get a white blank window and it just sits there.

This still doesn't work on Snow Leopard. It hasn't ever worked on Snow Leopard ... Logitech's website list three things that "could" be the cause of the problem, I tried all three and still can't get it to recognise the USB connection.

I'm also totally perplexed as to why this remote, which connects via USB, has to be configured in System Preferences/Network panel !?!

Pathetic auto-update feature - when I launch my version 7.5.0 copy it downloads the necessary updates but then comes up with an error message saying that I need to change access rights to the Application folder. Why can't the updater just authenticate like any other installer? Is this fault because Logitech's developers are used to writing software for OSes like Windows XP where there is no protection, so they can't make the conceptual leap to an OS which does have some proper security?

Hands-down the worst software / interface on my Mac. Absolutely horrid with little-to-no redeeming qualities. May sound like hyperbole, but this web-app renders an otherwise nice, ergonomically friendly remote a searing pain in the a** to program.

I just upgraded the firmware of the remote using version 7.7. My tv now properly turns on. Super clunky software but this latest update seems to work better with my home system.

true to their word, Logitech fixed their 7.5.0 release of Harmony software, apparently w/o changing the version number of the app; the single button press = multiple transmission of commands problem has been fixed in a release that appeared sometime on Monday 8/11/08. They admit their goof - good for them. There was no overt announcement, though, to log in and update - just a notice on the app if you took the initiative. I updated the firmware again as well, but there is no indication that this was necessary

Good to hear. But 'silent' updates area such a bad idea in general. How can most/all users know that a new version is available if the new version is still numbered as being the old version...

I agree - there are similar comments in the website forum; go figure

Logitech confirmed via call to customer support that 7.5 is flawed - used on a Harmony 1000 with DirecTV it sends two pulses for each button push. I was informed Sat 8/9/08 that 'engineers' were working on it and reverting to a previous version would not help - probably because of the firmware update that accompanies the application
