Have owned this for years but the 2.0.4 update has completely broken it for me. It will not allow me to save changes! What good is an image editor that won't save changes?
I have been using this software for years. The developer has been quick and tireless in addressing problems brought to him. Thanks Ed!! With the latest update I have been experiencing verrry lonng start times - in excess of 30 or 35 seconds. Not too happy with that.
After doing some basic troubleshooting, as directed by the developer, everything seems to be back to normal. I do love this software and have reccomended it to several people.
I was hoping 1.6.1 would be usable version-I had to revert to 1.5.1 when 1.6.0 would freeze and crash after less than 5 minutes of use. I was wrong. 1.6.1 seems just as buggy as 1.6.0. Once again reverting to 1.5.1, where I have seen very few problems and nothing I can't live with.
I first purchased VueScan when Canon stopped developing drivers for my scanner. It made my old scanner usable on a new MacOS. After getting a new scanner and encountering some issues I contacted Ed(the developer). He was very patient with me and worked diligently to solve my problem. This release works perfectly for me! I recommend this software to anyone that use a scanner. Period.
Upgraded to DG3 and found it to be stable and efficient. Defragged 2 drives flawlessly. I have encountered no problems. I must add that the customer support at Prosoft is the best in the business. If you own DG2, like I did, then the upgrade is a no-brainer.
Upgrade install over 10.5.8 took about 30 minutes. That's the good news. Mail wouldn't send: fixed that. Gutenprint drivers for my printer are horrible! Time Machine first backup took almost 2 hours and Time machine is rendered on a white background, making it virtually unusable!! Safari is having trouble with some secure sites that worked perfectly in 10.5.8. Many thanks to the developers that were so quick to supply updates; Alsoft, Prosoft, Agile, Stunt... The whole system does seem more responsive. Star-up and Shut-down times seem little changed. Machine still has "wake from sleep" issue that is Firewire related. Pretty painful process.
I agree with the previous post. I used DG2 to defrag my original aluminum iMac. It worked perfectly. My Machine was much more responsive. Totally satisfied. The customer service a Prosoft is the best.
