Quicken 2007

Jp7 reviewed on 09 Mar 2012
God I hate Intuit, but I must be addicted to hitting my thumb with a hammer because I've kept on doing it all these years. When I had to go to Quicken Essentials with Lion from Quicken 2007 I was ticked. iBank just doesn't do it, although I gave it a trial period--on two different occasions. So when I saw an opportunity to go back to 2007 on Lion I bit for another $14.95 plus tax. Well there's that thumb again. Despite following their instructions, regardless of one's alleged ability to set export range dates, Quicken Essentials decided for itself what it would export to 2007. Plus, it truncated 6 of my accounts. Importing into 2007 lost six months of transactions in my main checking account. When I tried to connect to my bank online with 2007, it wouldn't connect despite the correct password, and I was locked out and had to change my password with my bank. So screw Intuit, I'm getting that refund I was promised within 60 days. Well after taking me to a refund link, it's not letting me check the refund box. I'll give it another try on Monday, but refund or not, it's the last $ Intuit will see from me. I changed from TurboTax this year to H&R Block because I'm so sick of them. Burn...

Apple Messages

After trying it an liking it since it came out, I uninstalled it today. Despite adding our emails to our iPhones; yesterday it started failing if she was not on wifi. It didn't automatically then send SMS as it had been doing before. Missed several texts that screwed communication up.

When it's in 10.8 I believe it will slide in and out of the right side of the screen. It's too big and clunky hanging out all the time--especially on a 13" MBP.

Developer's site says version 3.3.8 is best for Lion.

I wish MacUpdate would let ratings be adjusted. They should all be 5s.

Dragon Dictate
Jp7 commented on 03 Aug 2011
Their site says version 2.5 has problems with Lion which they are trying to isolate. Meanwhile they say version 2.0.3 does work.

I've used Dictate from the beginning of MacSpeech Dictate. It keeps getting better, especially with a fast computer.

Dropbox

Jp7 reviewed on 26 Apr 2011
I'm not evaluating this version of DropBox, just DropBox in it's entirety. So much better than iDisk for off site storage of important files, although I understand database stuff should not be stored as it corrupts (I don't know ask Sente).

I LOVE it! All my Macs, all my vital files, all the time.

Put DropBox folder inside an Espionage vault, and it is HIPAA compliant. More info via Espionage.

BTW, those should all be 5's. MU wouldn't let me change them once my cursor passed over them.

Initially liked it, but had to shut it off. Safari increasingly locked up. I am also using keyboard maestro, and menu master, but no hotkeys conflict.

SpamCop

Jp7 reviewed on 24 Oct 2003
Hey it's always worked for me. One of the beauties is you get to make abuse complaints which actually has impacted on how much spam I then continue to receive. After about 3 weeks, I bought a membership. I forward my email accounts to spamcop.net where they get washed and then retrieve to my mac.com acct. Since 4/03, spamcop has caught over 2300 spams while only mistaking 4 legitimate emails. I highly recommend it!

This was the product that told me my high speed Internet provider was routinely phoning home info on my hard drive. It was also the product that stopped it. *****
