Apple iTunes

Cool! Now my songs may not "skinp" when playing from iCloud.

Firefox

The current link here isn't right. It downloads a ~64Kb .dmg file.

I went to Mozilla.org to get the actual 10.0 dmg.

Admins might want to fix that link.

Listed here as "Free", but it's actually a $1.99 in the App Store.

Just an FYI.

Apple Safari

5.1.2 has slowed to crawl on one of my iMacs. Ugh. Everything was great before this update, but now I'm stuck in molasses land.

Hopefully, for your sake, this is just a local problem, but if anyone has any tips or thoughts about fixing, please feel free to reply.

Thanks in advance and I hope you have better luck than I do.

OK, following up myself here.

I used "Software Update..." to install this latest version of Safari, but I later went to Apple's site and found there are two versions of 5.1.2; one for SL and one for Lion. Since the problematic Mac was running SL, I downloaded the SL version and reinstalled.

After rebooting, things seem fine, so far.

Also, I don't use any Safari extensions. Appreciate the comments nonetheless, Cowicide.

Note: I don't know if SU got the running OS wrong or this was just a coincidental issue, but I post it in case anyone else has a similar experience.

iCleanMemory

Purchased this for .99 via the App Store and PayPal. Apple charged me eight (8) times for the same purchase, but calling PayPal I was quickly able to get the proper credits.

(A week later Apple acknowledged the error was theirs by email).

I was excited by the then glowing reviews for this app, but after a few days use I found its use was making my Mac very unstable and have since stopped using it.

There is no such thing as a free lunch (or even a .99 one) so my advice is caveat emptor.

Printer IP Remedy

I've been using an OS 9-running Mac on my network to do this task.

Much appreciated to see a simple way to do this on OS X, especially for any morons like me.

Alas, it did not work on this Mac [iMac 2.4 GHz, 10.6.8 3GB RAM] but I'll do some testing on other Macs on the network and report back if I see other results.

Cheers!

On an iMac 2.4Ghz, OS X 10.6.8, I was only able to install this in multi-user mode. The pref pane would not show up in System Preferences in single-user install mode.

Just me?

Love it!

Great addition to the OS X toolbox. For me, this has more uses than I could even begin to explain.

Only problem is the cost. : )

LastPass Safari Extension

Melman Flink commented on 09 Jun 2011

Why would I ever want to store my password information with an online service?

I have a safety deposit box, multiple computers, not all of which are online and many offsite options to store them.

If we have not learned already how porous web security models can be, I don't know that we ever will.

In short, even the idea of storing any of my data "in the cloud" is one this luddite finds incredibly naive.

YMMV

Star Watermark

Melman Flink reviewed on 24 Apr 2011

Superb and useful free application. Of course, the usual whiners here, but for those in need of a functional, flexible and customizable watermarking application, this seems ideal.

Plus, despite what you read in the reviews here, the free version is indeed editable.

Kudos to the developer and thank you! Please ignore the negative remarks and continue. Some of us really do appreciate your efforts.
