LotsaWater

Goldyn Chyld reviewed on 19 May 2012

It just DOESN'T work. Never worked on Snow Leopard and now still doesn't work on Lion. All I get is a black screen with water. :(

VLC Media Player

Goldyn Chyld commented on 19 Feb 2012

So is it possible to turn OFF the Playlist? I don't want to keep track of all the movies I've watched.

Skype

Goldyn Chyld commented on 18 Feb 2012

How do I make it display "Contacts" upon signing in, instead of "Skype Home"?!?

Thanks for this awesome app. Best choice for Mac.

Will this app only "work" with HDDs or can it be used equally with SSDs too?

It's being released next month, but the developer preview has been available for months.

X Lossless Decoder

Goldyn Chyld commented on 29 Apr 2011

Could someone explain to me what do the following settings under VBR mean?

Default (-q 3)
High (-q 2)
Normal (-q 5)
Fastest (-q 7)

I plan to rip all my CDs with V0 soon, but I don't know what I should select. What do those "-q" signify?

Thanks, Rob. So I should go with V0 and High (-q 2) when ripping MP3s?

BootChamp

Goldyn Chyld reviewed on 09 Apr 2011

With just a click on the button, this app will restart your Mac and boot into Bootcamp. It is sort of like a reverse button for the one in Bootcamp that will restart your Mac and boot back to OS X...

It is an excellent app and works great on 10.6.7.

[Version 1.2]

Google Chrome

Goldyn Chyld reviewed on 23 Mar 2011

Probably the fastest browser out there. It works great on Mac, but what is the main deal-breaker for me is that there are NO favicons in Omnibar. The gray "world" and "star"/"search" icons in Omnibar make the browser dull and what's more, hard to quickly distinguish between your history and/or bookmarked links.

And for crying out loud, make the darn "Other Bookmarks" button REMOVABLE from the Bookmarks Bar!!! Can't believe they don't give a crap about numerous people's complaint on this.

Until they fix that, I'm afraid I can't give it more than 3 stars.

uTorrent

Goldyn Chyld commented on 20 Mar 2011

Will they add an option to display "Download/Upload Speed" on the Dock icon like Transmission does?

Nice! That's what I was hoping for... When do they plan to release it?

Goldyn Chyld replied on 21 Mar 2011

Hehe, I know it's available for download... What I referred to was when it would be getting out of "beta"...

The Unarchiver

Goldyn Chyld had trouble on 06 Apr 2012

Why does it no longer open the folder upon extracting it?

DarkAdapted

Goldyn Chyld had trouble on 01 Feb 2012

Are there any decent alternatives to this app, since it can no longer be downloaded??

Nice! Thanks for the heads-up... :)

The Unarchiver

Goldyn Chyld had trouble on 25 Apr 2011

Whenever I extract a .rar file (not sure about other formats right now), when it is about to finish extracting, it will stall for a couple of seconds and only then finally complete the task, open the folder and ditch the .rar file into Trash.

This wasn't the case in 2.6 though. Why is it like that in 2.7?

[Version 2.7]

Pixelmator

Goldyn Chyld had trouble on 06 Jan 2011

Why is it that in the newly opened AppStore it says the latest version of Pixelmator is 1.6.4, while here it says 1.6.2? And even if I check for updates within my Pixelmator, it will state that 1.6.2 is the latest version?

[Version 1.6.2]

OnyX

Goldyn Chyld had trouble on 15 Nov 2010

Each time when I try to update OnyX from within the app, I get an error after it has been downloading it for a while. Then I'd have to download it from here.

Why doesn't the update option work properly? It will let me know that a new version of OnyX is available, though when it starts downloading the error will appear after a while.

[Version 2.2.0]

Firefox

Goldyn Chyld had trouble on 10 Nov 2010

Two thumbs down for the latest beta (4.0b7). It's clearly become a copy of Chrome in the way it shows the loading status and I really don't like it. The way it was in b6 was neat! Also, why the hell move the Refresh button to the right?!?!??! I loved the way Firefox had the reload button on the left!!! Why now copy Safari??

Also, I would prefer if FF had a floating status bar instead of showing links that you might visit in the URL bar. It seems too cluttered.

Sigh. What are they going to make out of FF!!

On a bright side though, it seems snappier than b6.

Goldyn Chyld replied on 10 Nov 2010

I tried the Customize thing before, but there's NO Refresh icon - that's what's infuriating!!! And I'm not sure what other customizable settings you are referring to.

Oh, wow. I would never have figured that out, thanks for pointing out! The Bookmarks Star button still cannot be removed, though. :/ Even if you drag it up to the "+" button, it won't stay there, but remain on the Bookmarks Toolbar.

I hope they will take care of this sometimes.

How do I update to 1.6.1 from within the app?? (I'm using v. 1.6)

LotsaWater

Goldyn Chyld had trouble on 26 Jul 2010

It doesn't work! (OS X 10.6.4 here) - it's as though I had the Dimming option set to "Dark", though I actually set it to "Normal." Anything that could be done about this? :/

Why does it say my Chrome version is 5.0.307.9 beta when it should say 5.0.335.0??
