Unjumbler

Bikeham reviewed on 15 Jan 2011

It doesn't always do what it says on the tin. If I "Enter" a jumbled word into the search box it reports "Sorry, no results were found". Clicking the "Unjumble" button does work.
How about words that are a subset of the jumbled word? That might be more useful for scrabble players.

Adobe Flash Player

Flash is so retro these days

Apple TV import works now. Am very happy about this :)

AppleTV setting doesn't work for me. I use iTunes instead, seems to work ok. I upgraded from earlier versions and something went amiss along the way?

I am having a problem with 0.95b. It keeps downloading new video components every time I initialise it. I've tried deleting and re-installing, deleting the plist files but still I am thwarted by this cantankerous problem.

Apart from that, it works very nicely.

throttled

bikeham commented on 27 Mar 2008

I have used versions prior to the 0.5 release and had a dismal outcome. I installed the program not long after I bought my first mac and was flummoxed as to why my LAN speeds were pitifully slow. Some 12 months or more later I had an epiphany - could it be that Throttled was stymieing my LAN speeds and not just WAN as was intended? Removing this program made me a very happy LAN person. I am not sure if this program helped me shoot myself in the foot or it is just plain evil. The former is more likely, but I am still perplexed.

Transmission

bikeham commented on 27 Feb 2008

I have been using Transmission since 1.04 and am still experiencing "spinning beach ball" lockups of the OS (leopard). The only fix is for a hard reset - holding down the power button for 8 seconds. The mouse cursor can be moved but nothing responds.

Prior to the lock ups, the internet connection ceases.

1.06 still doesn't fix this problem as it has locked up twice for me today. No lock ups when Transmission is not running.

[Version 1.06]

AbiWord

bikeham commented on 08 Oct 2006

I recently tried 2.4.5 under OS X 10.4 and found the fonts were impossible to read on screen. Keep in mind that the problem is only with the OS X version of Abiword. There may be very few developers (if any) committed to the OS X build.

I managed to find 2.2.11 which seems to work well and saves to M$ doc format by default with a little tweaking. I prefer it to the latest NeoOffice and OpenOffice offerings.

Am very keen to see a 2.4.5 version that works and has been compiled as an intel binary.

SynergyKM

bikeham commented on 22 Jul 2006

Last time I used synergy 1.3, it could not be run as a Server on OS X. Who is going to run a PC all the time so that they can use a Mac occasionally? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'll correct myself. It works fine as a server on OS X, but remember to open port 24800 on your firewall.

Growl

bikeham had trouble on 02 May 2009

Growl 1.1.4 GrowlMail has some issues with Safari 4 beta.

I have been waiting for a proper fix for a while now.
