With this new upgrade pricing for long-time customers, I've decided to switch to TextMate.

Cool, fixes the major annoyance that the remote control was not instant. No problems so far.

SilverFast Plustek Scanner Software

Aw21 reviewed on 27 Jul 2011

Doesn't work on MacOS X 10.7 (Lion).
Don't wait for SilverFast 8. Just switch to Vuescan.
Vuescan's UI is basic and inelegant, but works quite well.
SilverFast's UI is ugly like MSDOS, but unusable.

[Version 6.6.2r4a]

Adobe Digital Editions

Crapware at its best.

The size of this great Automator app is 97 KB and not 97 MB.

[Version 2.0.1]

EyeTV

Aw21 had trouble on 22 Jul 2011

In version 3.5.3 whenever I move a window, its size shrinks to "Small Size". I hope this is a bug and not a feature, since it is a huge usability problem (and I'm already considering restoring the previous version).

[Version 3.5.3]

SUNRISE Contacts 2012

Aw21 had trouble on 19 Apr 2010

Trying to run this does not work since the "Runtime" is not executable. The following error appears on the console:
posix_spawn("/SUNRISE Contacts 2010.app/Contents/MacOS/Runtime", ...): Permission denied

A "chmod +x /SUNRISE Contacts 2010.app/Contents/MacOS/Runtime" helps.

I don't know why the executable bit got lost, but maybe the obsolete compression format ".sit" is the culprit.

[Version 1.5.8]

DxO Optics Pro

aw21 had trouble on 02 Apr 2007

Yes, DxO is great - as long as it starts up. For me (and others see http://www.dslr-forum.de/showthread.php?p=1723660), it crashes on launch randomly (always in "stub_binding_helper_interface + 18"). Tech support is not able to help. For me it is the most expensive piece of non-functional software. I cannot recommend this software since you cannot rely on it!

[Version 4.1]
