Does it support the PPC platform? I know it says Intel here on Macupdate, but this info is not always accurate. There is no platform support info on the developers' website.
@ LEGAL EAGLE. I totally agree with DOOBIEXX. This is BETA software, and as so, it is not unusual to come across bugs. Even applications deemed stable for public consumption (none-BETA) get corrupted sometimes.
I hope you realize that a bug is not part of the feature set a developer purposely designs into de application, and that using this forum to charge on him solely to bring it up to his attention, is mean and irresponsible.
Info.xhead is without a doubt one of the best applications of its kind. Version 2.0 incorporates a number of handy features. I like the newly redesigned user interface. It looks a lot slicker, but still maintains some of its classic look and feel. Still, like everything else, features and all could be further improved - I only hope it doesn't take a year or two for any improvements to be realized.
The developers, in my opinion, have succeeded at putting together yet another solid update to this fantastic application. But this alone is only part of what they should offer; addressing customers needs and concerns in an honest and timely manner is equally important. Sadly, this seems not to be the case often.
I'm sure that with every OS overhaul, comes challenges to developers. Maybe more so to some due to the nature of their applications. But there are developers offering their software as freeware or donationware who keep up with those challenges and who provide outstanding customer support with nothing more than the satisfaction of helping users have the best experience using their software. I commend them for that. People should show appreciation for their time and passion by making a donation whenever possible. The developers of Info.xhead would certainly benefit by adopting some of that passion.
But why am I praising this application while at the same time showing the stick? Well, it's simple. It's sad to see customer support not doing justice to an otherwise fantastic application. My critique is intended to encourage the developers to take better care of their customers, after all, they have built a great application. Why not going full circle then?
Is Timer Utility related in any way to Timer 3.5.3? Both have exactly the same icon and are at the same version. However, when you click on Timer developer's link (Nitewing 98) you go to this address http://geeksuit.com/software/81_0_1_0_M/ where he calls it Timer II V2.6. It was uploaded to MacUpdate today. I'm confused.
Whenever I see and update to Timer Utility, I'm like... what new features could the developer possibly add to an already useful, elegant application while still keeping it simple? Well, there you have it. He manages to do just that. Thank you developer! This is a great little app to have.
One thing I noticed on this update is that when time is complete, the "Dismiss" option appears to have been removed? I would really like to see it back.
Couldn't figure out how this thing works. Selected a file, invoked TagoMan, selected tag, clicked on "tag selection" from the actions drop-down menu, and nothing was tagged. Tried several times, and nothing was tagged. Searched if application offered a different approach. Tried whatever I could find, and nothing was tagged. Quit TagoMan, invoked tagger, selected tag, and a file was tagged.
This is a very good little app for searching tagged files. But I find it somewhat cumbersome dragging and dropping files on its icon in order to tag them, so I don't use it for that. Instead, a better solution for me is to tag files in DefaultFolder X's saving dialog when creating them. For existing files I use another excellent little gem: Tagger. Here is the link to it: http://hasseg.org/tagger/. With Tagger, I simply select any number of files, launch it and tag away! Quick and easy.
Because Tagger also uses the OpenMeta system, you'll be able to search files using Tagit. I don't quite like the idea of having two different application for tagging and searching files. But until Tagit offers an easier, better alternative to drag and drop, I'll stick with both. On the other hand, if Tagger incorporates searching capabilities, it would currently be a better choice in my opinion.
Several months ago when looking for a simple notes application, I came across meinKOPPPro. I was impressed with its overall feature set, UI and low price tag and so I rushed and gave it a 5 star rating. Sadly, I now have to recant it. As a started using it more and more, a number of bugs became apparent. Some not to bad, others too annoying they were hard to ignore. With time, I just couldn't put up with them and so I stopped using it overall.
Still, I think meinKOPPPro is a well thought out multi-task application that would serve people well when not needing or wanting to delve into a similar but more complex one such as DEVONthink Professional if and when the bugs get worked out. For me, they were to much to handle and sadly I had to part with it.
Does anybody know if its possible to delete tags from the tag list? How do you do it? I created a tag that I won't ever use by mistake and I can't figure out how to delete it.
