Boom

Truly excellent, but not yet compatible with OS X 10.8

I suspect that "Mountain Lion" will be ready for the "rest of us" shortly.

Just plain dreadful.
Lacks aesthetics.
Just a come-on for selling templates.

Under OS X 7.1 Little Snitch does not install / function:

The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/ElmediaPlayer.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update.

This is very poor.

Crashes each time AFTER running all day long.
The task assigned was to list duplicates in a ¾
empty 1 TB (boot) hard drive.

I finally got it to run to completion, but there are oddities and complaints.

Firstly, it did NOT just scan the volume thatI selected - it scanned an external HD as well. That partially explains the absurdly glacial pace.

The biggest problem is that this is a virtually featureless application. It does not create a text file to save, it has no ability to delete files. etc. etc.

Note: There is a delete button, but mine remains grayed out while selecting a listed file.

Please ignore my last comment re: the delete button.
Indeed it does work. I failed to tick the checkboxes.
Highlighting the files was not sufficient to the task.

I am really angry about buying software that I have grown dependent on and then having it yanked out from under me.

'This is not an issue of BUYING something that becomes obsolete but a matter of a GREAT product that the developer has NO intention of updating.

WQHY NOT ?

AccessMenuBarApps

Flash1296 reviewed on 15 Jun 2011

Installs but does absolutely nothing but give a nice sound.
I have 19 menu bar items on the right side and there are no changes when activating "accessmenubarapps"
I tried setting different command keys, but to no avail.

After logging out and back in, it launches but does not do anything. It pretty much “just sits there” L O L

I cannot fathom what happened earlier today,
but I booted my Quad Core iMac off of a 16 GB Flash Drive
where I had installed a TechToolPro5.0.7.

The volume directory had some corruption.
Repaired/Replaced.

Mac Redux.

All is well now.

Menuless

I do a 'get info' and I see that I have Read & Write privileges.

So … what do I do to "fix" this ?

I need some help here:

I repaired permissions and now 'Menuless' works with all BUT Apple's standard applications. i.e. Preview, Safari, Mail, etc.

This is a useful appl' that I would like to have; but it fails for me, claiming that my permissions are wrong, but hat does not seem to be the case.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem ?
