would still launch.
Then the spinning beachballs of death....every....single....time....you....click.....some...thing.
Moved to AppZapper and delete. Emptied trash.
Good premise but until the developer gets the code right, stay clear of this.

If that ever comes about I will try it again.
MacPilot
Chiefted reviewed on 28 Sep 2010
Honestly I always come back to this app. Most of the free
apps that mimic MacPilot, don't have all the bells and whistles
and sometimes its very hard to navigate through them *cough Onyx cough*
Have had good customer support from these folks.
Never crashes and pretty reliable.
They also stay pretty up to date with adding features. Example:
the recent change to iTunes 10 where the window "buttons" are now
horizontal. MacPilot had an update out that addressed that within
24 hours, and I think it was sooner than that.

MenuEverywhere
Chiefted reviewed on 14 Sep 2010
I work in a multi display environment at home and at work (2 screens at home and three at work). MenuEverywhere allows the menu bar to be access from any screen. I have the "bar" hidden until I mouse over the title bar for the application I am using. This takes out the mousing all the way over to my primary screen just to select an option.
It is very stable haven't had it crash on me yet.
After running in the demo mode I purchased a family/household license. Was well worth the
cost.

Application Enhancer

First, and I was an Apple Genius (now system admin in a Mac only office setting),
I wouldn't touch a Mac that had haxies installed on it. That isn't a guideline, its pretty
much a rule if you have to bring your Mac in to be worked on at an Apple Store.
Second, if you are dead set on using this make sure you can uninstall it. It will slowdown your machine (and the developer states this but brushes it off as only "microseconds" which is NOT the case).
Third and something the developer will deny but I have seen for myself, it does and will
affect other programs and may crash those other programs (LaunchBar is one that it does
play havoc with).
Fourth if a company is MIA for over a 18 months while I new release of an OS is out there (heck Apple has updated SL 4 times already), how do I know they will be around for support.
You don't
So don't install APE.

if there are spelling mistakes in the GUI what does that say about the code behind it.

Xtorrent

Although it is fairly stable over all there are many bugs in the software that have never been addressed. Support is poor, and that is being kind.
Steer clear of this one.
PodWorks
Chiefted reviewed on 01 Dec 2009
After doing an iTunes upgrade, specifically, the iTunes Media organization upgrade.
about 500 of my purchased and ripped from CD musing was gone.
Yes I searched around and looked in so many places I was about to give up
when I went looking for a utility to copy from my iPod touch (which I hadn't
sync'd yet) back to iTunes.
Podworks is currently humming along, no muss no fuss.
Interface is quiet intuitive (send all to iTunes, Selected to iTunes, pretty self
explanatory), very stable (hasn't crashed) and value....well when you compare
what I spent in time and money building my iTunes library 8 bucks was dirt cheap
