HENDO  There is a crucial bug where if you add an assignment from the toolbar it adds it to the top course. Not the selected course. Then if you try and change the course on the side it freezes schoolhouse. Hopefully this is s a quick fix!

KEDOS  It doesn't freeze for me, but it constantly jumps up to the top course any time you make a change. This is a big hassle, because I make several changes to each assignment (due date, kind, priority, title, etc).

Until the bug is fixed, this is my workaround: I make an assignment under my top course, regardless of what course it's supposed to go under. I make all the necessary changes for the assignment, then I change the course assignment in the right panel. It's not too bad if you create all of your assignments at once.

As for a feature request, I'd like some sort of spreadsheet view for my grades (like 1 column for each grade type). This is how I've been organizing my assignments in Numbers for the past year, and it's really convenient because I can see all of my grades and can easily enter new grades just to see how they might affect my overall grade.

KEDOS  even better, just edit your assignments from the Library folder instead of the specific class folder. easy temporary fix!

ACMILANTIM  The application really needs to have Leopard support. It is some what functional when running in rosette, but still has a lot of errors. Please, really Schoolhouse 3 with Leopard support.

SURFSPIRIT  Definitely a great idea, but useless, it's full of bugs, so serious that make it impossible to use and trust. It deletes classes not selected, it has no integration with ical, so why bother to put the timetable info!?, I really like the concept, but it's not enough robust, it's more like a beta full of bugs than a final release! Ok it´s a free app, but anyway, it would be better if it was paid and works, than free and useless!

LOGANSCOLLINS  There are a couple bugs that have popped up recently, either due to 10.4.10 or now some from 10.5. I am working on an update release, please be patient. I have been really busy with class lately, so I haven't has as much time to devote to Schoolhouse as I'd like

FREE_DEVELOPMENT  I used this program for about one semester, but I must take it out of my dock. The program is very well written, and looks great, but does not have all the features that it should. It works as a VERY simple word processing program, and file managing application. I am not using Schoolhouse anymore because I wish the note taker was i bit more advanced, such as the program Bean. As for the file organizer, I wish Schoolhouse would open files such as PDFs, DOCs, and others in the program itself, and not have to open other apps. Because of that, I am just going to take notes on Bean, ands organize the files in folders in Finder. If those changes are made I will be using this program again.

Thank you for the great work so far

SUCKERPUNCH86  The program locks up when I create a new term for the first time, and it stops responding. Is there any way around it?

FREE_DEVELOPMENT  Great app, and I will post a full review later, but I am wondering what the program is trying to contact. Every time I open the program I get notified that it is trying to reach something called loganscollins.com.

$IR M.  I finally thought to check the dev's blog; not only is he working on a major 3.0 Leopard-friendly update, he has a quick fix for the Intel 10.5.2 beachballing:

"... if you Get Info on the Schoolhouse app in ... the Finder, and Select the Rosetta option (to force the app to run in PowerPC compatible mode), it works fine. This is a temporary solution for everyone who can’t access there [sic] stuff anymore."

SMACTRON  I am glad that version 3 is being worked on, but I would love a small update for the current version to remove the Intel-specific bug since running Schoolhouse in Rosetta brings my MacBook to a crawl whenever I use it.

JMROSSOL  I also found getting info and selecting the rosetta option fixes the issue. I have not noticed significant performance issues (1.83).

SEATTLEROBESON  This program was recommended to me my a friend but after downloading it I opened it and it froze. I deleted it, re-downloaded it from three other sources and it froze every time. It looks great but I can't use it because it freezes. I'd love to use it if you work out the bug.

TIM.DEHRING  I agree. Running 10.5.2, I am unable to create a new term. If I uncheck the box, I get to the main window but the app freezes everytime I try to create a new term. Deleting prefs or reinstalling the program do not work. Such a shame, I loved this app when I was using 10.4!

$IR M.  My 9-year-old son had high hopes for this, to help him stay organized. It worked perfectly in earlier tests under 10.5, but had broken by 10.5.2 in the same way others describe. I saw that a deprecated framework (by now probably removed) is being referenced, hence the freeze.

I advise patience: the author (who I do not know) makes this beautiful app available for free; plus, he's apparently a student himself, right in the thick of things at present. He's likely heard the screams though, and may already be working on a fix. But in the meantime, let's cut him slack and remain thankful for this gift, though it be (temporarily) unusable through no fault of his.

NOREBIRTH  Nice App. Tryed Task List first, but this app looks greater and seemed to be much professionel. But I'm realy afraid about all the bug reports! Found one with the resizing the panel on the left.

One collum in the listview for the Prof. Name would be great!

Hope the Update follows soon!
