About Me

I am a Free member
Gender: Male
I have been a professional photographer since 1979. In the early years, i traveled with his Canon A-1 and Linhof Technika 4x5 view camera photographing the American West, amassing a stock photo library of over 10,000 transparencies. I now shoot exclusively digital with Nikon equipment, looking to craft outstanding photographs. My photographs have appeared in numerous ads, books, magazines, and on magazine covers. Assignments have included such clients as the National Park Service and U.S. Electricar.

TotalFinder

Harristype commented on 07 Feb 2012

Several things seem to be broken or buggy now after upgrading Lion to 10.7.3. Visor behaves very erratically. Performed an uninstall and a reinstall and the same problems persist. Hopefully the dev can get this fixed soon, as this has become one of my indispensable utilities.

Numi

Harristype commented on 17 Jan 2012

Very nice. This is like a menubar version of Soulver, but it's free.

Badia FullMeasure for QuarkXPress

Harristype commented on 16 Jan 2012

"Instant access to more than 160 Quark 7 features"? I think the tagline is a bit outdated since the latest version is 9.

[Version 5.5.1]

Snapseed

Harristype commented on 12 Jan 2012

Although I trust just about anything coming from Nik Software, and I own the iPhone version of this app, I would still like to be able to download a demo and test it out before committing to buy.

[Version 1.0.0]

LionScrollbars

Harristype commented on 07 Jan 2012

Great idea, but the name of the app is misspelled as "LionScollbars" (missing letter r in Scroll). Great idea and would love to see this as a preference pane.

Name fixed in 0.2.1. This should be something that Apple included with Lion.

So why would anyone click the "sad face" icon on either of my postings here? I pointed out a typo to the developer, gave him a suggestion for a direction to go, and pointed out that the app is a great idea. Could that person chime in here and let me know which of these he/she disagreed with? Or was this the work of a troll?

Media Catalog

The developer discontinued this app as of September 1, 2011.

Deer Drive

Harristype reviewed on 08 Dec 2011

Nice cross between realistic and arcade action. Nicely done. Doubt the other 3 who each gave it a half star ever tried the game.

[Version 1.6.1]

AppDefender Pro

Harristype commented on 03 Dec 2011

Well, it looks like this developer took the money from everyone and ran. There website is completely gone and the domain is for sale. Since this program NEVER worked properly, then MU should remove it from their listing.

[Version 1.4.0]

Clusters

Harristype commented on 03 Dec 2011

I'm a BIG fan of Xslimmer by the same company. Xslimmer has saved a lot of disk space on my drives, but I have continuing problems with Clusters slowing my machine down to a crawl, even after it finishes its compression. I won't give it a star rating since I'm not sure the problem isn't inherent to my machine, but I've had to remove every version shortly after installing it. Hope they can get this fixed.

[Version 1.5.6]

Social Pro

Harristype commented on 12 Oct 2011

My favorite social network is Google+ but I don't see that listed. No Google+, no deal.

[Version 1.8]

MagicPrefs

Harristype had trouble on 07 Dec 2010

There's a problem that I'm having with the new version 2.0. I use the 3-finger click to bring up Spaces, and with the old version, it would stay in Spaces after I released the mouse so that I could choose the Space I wanted to navigate to. With this version, when I press the mouse using the 3-finder click, Spaces pops up, but when I release the mouse, it goes away. Is there a new preference or something similar that I'm missing?

[Version 2]

HyperDock

Harristype had trouble on 22 Nov 2010

I love HyperDock, but the latest version (0.9.12.1) introduced a new problem for me. Without warning, the window previews in the dock will just stop working. The only workaround to getting them back is to open the HyperDock prefpane and the disable, then enable HyperDock. Hopefully the next version will fix this problem.

[Version 0.9.12.1]

PhoneDisk

Harristype had trouble on 03 Mar 2010

Can't really evaluate this, because it crashes EVERY time I choose the Preferences menu option.

[Version 1.001]

Halo

Harristype had trouble on 27 Apr 2007

When trying to update to 2.0.1, I get an immediate message stating "The were errors installing, please try again." Reinstalled from my original Halo UB disk, then tried the updater again, and I get the same error message.

[Version 2.0.1]

Zooom2

Harristype had trouble on 10 Feb 2007

Tried download the DMG for version 1.5 twice. Both times it gave me a "codec overrun" message and wouldn't open.

[Version 1.5]

Application Enhancer

Harristype had trouble on 28 Jun 2006

Version 2.0.1 still has problems with QuicKeys. QuicKeys will lock up after choosing the "Choose Menu" button in creating a new macro. I've sent reports of this to Unsanity, but most of my emails to them go unanswered. I really wish they would fix this. At this point I need QuicKeys more than I need Unsanity's products, so off they go.

[Version 2.0.1]

FontCard

Harristype had trouble on 05 Apr 2006

I'm having a problem with 1.3.2 that happens in several programs. Font styles in submenus cannot be chosen, it only defaults to the main listed font in the main menu. If I'm using ITC Berkeley, and I want to choose the italic version, it won't accept the change and keeps the regular version. The font set is complete, but FontCard won't allow the style change. I have no problems with You Control: Fonts, but I like the fact the FontCard works in the app's own font menu and not a separate one. I've contacted Unsanity twice in the last month via their email tech support and have yet to hear a word. Terrible support!
