It's with a heavy heart that I write this. I've used and supported Socialite ever since it was EventBox, but after all these years it's still too buggy for what I need it to do. As an RSS reader, it's failed me due to persistent lockups with refreshes; as a Twitter client, it's failed me due to constant reauthorization request and perpetual refreshes. I've tried everything on their support forums that's been recommended, and nothing seems to work at all.

I'm not really bitter or angry at Apparent Software, I know they try. I've just that I've had enough with my constant struggles in getting this app to work for me.

I, too, am tired of the struggle. I had less problems when it was EventBox. The two changes of ownership and the updates have only made this app worse for me. I have to rebuild my database about every third time I open it. I stopped adding all my accounts and feeds. It's too time consuming. I'm just trying to get by with two Twitter accounts, and I can't even do that. I just installed the latest version and had to rebuild my DB again. It's sad, because I first considered this to be the perfect social app for me. I can't even go back to my second favorite, Nambu, because they have gone by the wayside [sigh].

I haven't been using it that long but I was so impressed at first that I bought it. Now...I’m using Reeder and Twitter and FaceTab. [ditto on the sigh]

I use Socialite every day, and I like it very much. I can easily gather the whole social network information in one place. It saves me a lot of time, and helps me keep in touch with all my friends!

After installing Lion it worked for a few days, then all of a sudden, it will not launch.

All in all this app feels slow and badly programmed.

All I am really looking for is a living, breathing version of Brizzly. This is fairly close, but lacks auto-expansion of all pictures, videos and links such as Brizzly has.

I will say, definitely kudos for not going the route of making it a tiny column like most Twitter apps inexplicably feel compelled to do. Also, I like the fact you can make the fonts bigger. Would be nice if you could customize them too.

So, not a bad app, just doesn't do what I was specifically searching for.

Great app! No more need to hop from one account to another one to see what's up, really glad I discovered it.

Great app.

But one question: is there support for Twitter photo upload to Yfrog or alike service? Very needed feature which I couldn't find.

Yes, there's support for twitpic and a couple other.
Look in Preferences, bottom row - Photo Uploads.
Define, then drop images on the timeline view.

In Lion 1.3.6 is very buggy. When try to quit the app, it takes ages and it is needed to force quit. Authentification in Twitter and Facebook isn't smooth.

@Arjuna. If you upgraded from a release earlier than 1.3.5 then it may take a long time to quit Socialite the first time. Socialite does some database optimizations on exit and more so since version 1.3.5. You shouldn't force-quit, let it finish.

What's not smooth with Twitter or Facebook authentication?
In general, I suggest to contact is through our support service at http://support.apparentsoft.com to get more personal support on insues.

Installed it, added Facebook account, no refresh, couldn't access my Facebook account.
After deleting all(!) Socialite files and reinstalling the app, I tried to add FB account again. I was asked to enter a name for the service and after antering a name I've never used before - despite having deleted all existing Socialite files from my Mac - Socialite pulled some account information from somewhere without needing any authorization. I think this app is not very trustworthy and also buggy.

Hello, if you have issues with Socialite, I suggest you contact our support at http://support.apparentsoft.com.

Authorization information for Facebook could've been simply saved in browser's cookie since Socialite was already authorized previously for your Facebook account.

And name for the account is just for your reference, it doesn't have to be the name of your Facebook account.
There are currently no troubleshooting comments. If you are experiencing a problem with this app, please post a comment.
