Toast Titanium
Harv commented on 28 Apr 2012
Re the 99% hang--

FWIW-

From the Roxio Support site:

"Can you try this pre-release build of an upcoming update, this is a major update and although looks the same has a very different backend and internals.

thanks

Toast 11.1 Beta: http://db.tt/8i36EJKs

Note: Ignore the "update" message that appears when you launch it, if you choose to update it will just install the release version instead of letting you use the beta."

Alas, I know not how effective and if any potential issues lurk with this beta. Perhaps others will post.

Microsoft Office 2011

Harv reviewed on 26 Apr 2012
I have had none of the problems described below. Why or how that is, I dunno. Perhaps chaos awaits.

But I find this version far superior to earlier releases. There are a few nits that still annoy me, but nothing major; a bit like Lion in that regard.

Indeed this app is not for everyone. No doubt that is why MS provides a free demo (unlike the Apple Store).

SMARTReporter

Harv reviewed on 25 Apr 2012
After many years of enjoying the free benefits of SmartReporter, I had no problems with now paying a nominal fee for this upgraded product.

The new features & ease of use have convinced me that I made a sound investment. As best I can tell, it works as advertised and is rock solid.

FWIW, I did ascertain that the developer tests the code with (simulated) failing drives, so that he can verify that the app can actually detect a failure in progress. No doubt there are constraints & exceptions, but, IMHO, that does seem like a reasoned approach.

Strange indeed. VersionTracker still lists a 4.5.0 version.

I asked the developer for clarification. If I get a reply, I'll post same.

Many thanks, Localboy56! At least now I know why the 4.5.0 version was withdrawn.

Perhaps v4.5.1 is not far off...

It seems that with this new version, I no longer have the option precluding displaying the icon in the dock. Is this me or a nuance of this new version?

Cocktail

Again works as designed.

Incredibly responsive developer.

Indeed Cocktail is one of my "must have" apps.

Smart Scroll

Harv reviewed on 02 Mar 2012
For years, I used Smart Scroll with success. Now, with Lion & Safari 5.1.3, I am unable to get 2 finger swiping to work. Customer support has been responsive, but still no joy.

Oddly, 2 finger swiping works with Smart Scroll disabled, thus I am unable to use Smart Scroll as intended.

I can but hope resolution returns with Mountain Lion or the next Smart Scroll release.

Garmin WebUpdater
Harv commented on 28 Feb 2012
For moi, this update was as advertised and without issue.

But I am a bit surprised the former v2.1.2 did not note that this v2.1.3 updater was available.

Is that normal?

Garmin Communicator Plugin

Harv reviewed on 19 Feb 2012
'Twas all my fault…

In case others are having the problem I thought I had, you might find my solution of benefit.

The reason the Plugin did not work is that I had "ClickToPlugin v2.6" installed and had not modified the setting/preference to allow the Communicator to load.

Indeed, the problem was not the software or Garmin's tech support, but rather, Operator Error.

And of course, my most sincere apologies to Garmin.

SMARTReporter
Harv had trouble on 21 Apr 2012
I am unable to enable: "Check For Problematic I/O Errors". The stated reason is that I am not an "Admin-User". That is simply not so.

Am I the only one with this issue? I would contact the developer, but he has stated v2.x is no longer supported.

Suggestions?

SnapNDrag
Harv had trouble on 21 May 2010
I have used this 5 star app for years. As far as IÕm concerned, Apple should open their check book, and pay Yellow Mug a mil (or two) for this app, and then include SND with the OS.

But I do have two nits that even the developers are wrestling with:
1) I am unable to use the Òarrow pointerÓ, instead I always get the cross hairs.
2) I cannot get the sound to work.

Does anyone else have these problems or suggested solutions?

File Buddy
Harv had trouble on 26 Sep 2009
On a 24" Intel C2D iMac, 10.6.1

Nearly every time I launch FB, I get the advisory that I must enter my serial number. This occurs so often (about 90% of the time) that I now keep an alias of the File Buddy.fbAutoReg on my desktop.

I'm wondering if anyone is experiencing the same problem and if there is a fix.

I just wrote the developer. Should I get a response, I'll post the relevant details.

In desperation, I deleted my Skytag plists. I then reentered my original serial number. For the time being, that seemed to fix things. Perhaps my “fix” will work for you too (still, a verified backup is suggested).
