Fumy

Itty reviewed on 11 Dec 2011

Smoke and later, Fumy v.1.5 work fine on a MacBook Core 2 Duo-Snow Leopard with built-in Intel Graphics.

Fumy 2.0 does not work on this machine. The new requirements should be changed to reflect the need of a separate graphics card and the lack of support for Intel GMA Graphics.

Sketcher

Itty reviewed on 07 Aug 2011

Excellent little app that is Best-in-Class compared to Corel Painter's Auto Paint or Photoshop's Artistic Effects Filters. And it is superior to Adobe PixelBender. It is also superior to Corel Painter's Sketch effect filter. This is the best Watercolor/Opaque watercolor effect filter I've seen so far, at any price. This app saves time when using Adobe Photoshop's Brush engine to convert an image to a painterly effect.

Vuze

Itty reviewed on 04 Mar 2011

Wow. This thing is so bloated with crap. It installs thousands of files. (do a search including invisibles).

uTorrent and Transmission are the top 2 on the Mac. If you need a player and you don't want all the spyware and bloatware. Yes it has lots of features, but they don't make it a better app.

Ignorant and inexperienced users beware.

CoolBookController

Itty reviewed on 28 Feb 2011

I have been a happy customer with 2 licenses. It has been a stable app that truly prolongs battery life. I use it in conjunction with SmcFanControl.

This latest version still lists incorrect CPU speeds on both, my MacBook2,1,[Merom] and my MacBookPro4,1.[Penryn]. Both units running 10.6.6

Hopefully these older Intel units will continue to receive support. I'd hate to loose the functionality that Coolbook provides. My 2006 MacBook Battery still holds a 3.5 Hr. charge after 5 years of continuous [24/7] runtime, thanks to CoolBook.

Cleaned up caches and rebooted my MacBookPro, and found that it does work properly now [Penryn]. However on my MacBook it still is listing incorrect CPU speeds [Merom].

FoldersSynchronizer

Itty reviewed on 19 Feb 2011

This is a must have utility for me. Simple yet powerful. Good for back ups and keeping multiple folders and hard disks synchronized. This upgrade is well worth the $12 price.

SketchBook Express

Itty reviewed on 07 Jan 2011

Besides the unbeatable price, this is a great little app for quick sketches or full blown works of art. One can design their own color palette since it uses the Apple Color Picker. Works fine with an old Wacom as well as my Cintiq. Most importantly it is Photoshop friendly.

It's lightweight, great for quick launching and sketching without the massive overhead of Photoshop.

If you have Photoshop or Painter this is a nice tool for thumbnails and sketches on the run. If you don't have a high-powered Paint/Drawing app, this is a great intro. And it's free.

Playback

This would be great if it could work with AppleTV. You'd sell a million copies. I'd buy an AppleTV if someone would write a jailbreak app to let it relay Hulu or VLC player movies off my MacBook hard drive.

Wait a minute, didn't they go out of business a few years ago? I thought dial-up was dead.

Mac DVDRipper Pro

Itty reviewed on 06 Aug 2010

I have MacTheRipper and RipIt, and both are good in their own way. But Mac DVDRipper Pro is by far the best deal for the money if you have a newer and older Macs. Only Mac DVDRipper Pro will work on an old G4 Mac running Tiger. The others require Leopard and/or Intel chips. So if you are like me and have a few older Macs for offloading mundane tasks, Mac DVDRipper Pro is the best choice.

Like RipIt, Mac DVDRipper Pro is very simple and does the job well, sometimes the only solution that will work on some disks.

Unlike MTR, Mac DVDRipper Pro works on multiple Macs on your home network, with no complicated license scheme, and doesn't need any special 3rd party files in order to work.

I'm not knocking any other products, just pointing out that Mac DVDRipper Pro works well, on both, newer and older, systems and hardware, is simple to install and run, and is very, very low cost. A real bargain.

Oh, and the .iso output is very compatible with DVD2OneX and Toast.

Helix RADE

Nice to see progress. Can this now run on modern Macs? (Intel Cores).

DVD Spanner

Itty had trouble on 22 Feb 2010

Link downloads version 0.02 which will not launch on Intel/SnowLeopard.
Developer's link also will download version 0.02. Version tracker, etc. all the same; 2007 dated .dmg with version 0.02.

smcFanControl

Itty had trouble on 11 Nov 2008

It seems that v 2.1.3 is not yet available. The zip archive and the automatic update feature within the app install v 2.1.2 only.

Hopefully this is just an error that will be fixed soon?

v 2.1.2 is a fine little app. So I sure this will be resolved soon.
