IMKQIM

Dorkypants reviewed on 07 Feb 2012

This isn't free, it's trialware. It's free to download but the notes in the installer say that after 30 days you have to register.

Chocolat

This is not freeware, it's alpha software which is going to cost $34 when it's released.

Correction, the pre-release price is $34 at 30% off, which means the eventual price is about $49.

cmdQuit

Dorkypants commented on 09 Nov 2011

Doesn't cmd+option+Q close all windows when quitting in Lion?

MightyMonitor

Dorkypants reviewed on 02 Oct 2011

Handy, but the accuracy of the readout doesn't inspire confidence. Yesterday the display had dropped to 24% charge for the keyboard, and was indicated in yellow. Today, the keyboard's charge remaining has jumped up to 27% and is green. Huh?

Garmin BaseCamp

Dorkypants reviewed on 12 Aug 2011

Garmin, why do you let me choose "Bicycling" as my "Activity" when you won't route me onto bike paths clearly displayed and marked as such in the City Navigator North America NT map!?!

And how come when I asked Basecamp to check for updates today, the update check *FAILED*, yet a few hours later I see a new version posted on macupdate.com?

2.1.2 What's new: the version history in the README file indicates this is a Lion-compatibility releasse

How is using this to shutdown any better than Apple Menu->Shutdown... ?

Skitch Lite can be downloaded from the developer's website. It's an ad-supported free version with restricted abilities compared to the "standard" version at $24.99 and a "plus" version, which is subscription-based at $19.99/year.

Star Watermark

Dorkypants reviewed on 25 Mar 2011

This is crippleware. Until you pay, the only watermark you can apply is a lot of little copies of the phrase "Hello, World" applied all over the image being watermarked. It's $39.99 to register. This title should be classified as shareware, not "free".

[Version 1.0.1]

Screenshot Plus Widget

Dorkypants had trouble on 06 Feb 2012

Macupdate admins, please update this page to reflect that version 3.4 is available; also, the link to the developer's site is apparently wrong, it should be http://www.tarcolesfilmarts.com/software/. The developer's site says 3.4 works on Tiger and later. I can verify that it works on Snow Leopard.

[Version 3.3]

TCPBlock

Dorkypants had trouble on 26 Sep 2011

2 problems:

1) Whitelist sometimes doesn't stick: i.e., items I add to the Application List disappear from the list after a reboot. This has happened for Unix daemon programs rather than GUI apps.

2) On wake, I've gotten a Growl notification that a daemon has been blocked, but when I open the prefpane, it's not on the list of Connecting Apps so that it can be added to the whitelist.

[Version 2.9]

@Delantis

2) Yes, I figured out the prefpane needs to be open and set up my login to do so.

1) Hasn't happened again. If it does, I will send details.

MailTabs for Mail

Dorkypants had trouble on 17 Jul 2011

Great plugin, but...

I'm using Mail.app 4.5 on Snow Leopard with the classic 3-pane interface: folders on the left, headers on top-right, message body in bottom-right. With MailTabs installed, the header pane's height keeps creeping up as tabs get created and closed.

Scalare

Any update for Twitter requiring 3rd parties to use OAuth?

ASP

Dorkypants had trouble on 21 Mar 2011

Was using 0.9.8b6 successfully with Snow Leopard 10.6.6 (I think I may have added a PluginCompatibilityUUID string for it). Just upgraded to 10.6.7 via Software Update, it installs Mail.app 4.5, which disables ASPBundle, even after I copy the new PluginCompatibilityUUID from Mail.app to ASPBundle's SupportedPluginCompatibilityUUIDs.

OK, apparently 2 ID strings need to be added:

Thanks to Greg Welch, developer of MailFollowUp plugin.

Download link still points to version 1.3 . Version 1.3.2 is at http://twinside.free.fr/supaview/SupaView.1.3.2.zip

X Lossless Decoder

Dorkypants had trouble on 11 Feb 2011

The download link still downloads the 20101212 version. In addition, the developer's site says the latest version is 20101212. What makes MacUpdate think there's a 20110212 version available?

[Version 20110212]

Safari Cookies

Dorkypants had trouble on 07 Sep 2010

This is strange. I never installed 1.5.1, yet when I installed 1.5.2, the "remove non-favorite cookies" checkbox disappeared. I uninstalled 1.5.2 and reinstalled 1.5, and the checkbox was still missing, so I uninstalled 1.5 and reinstalled 1.4.4 and the checkbox remains missing.

Safari Cookies

Just installed 1.5.2, the "remove all non-favorite cookies" checkbox is still missing.
