Gmail Studio

jimmitchell commented on 29 Jun 2009

Was very surprised to find that Gmail Studio only allows one workstation to be "registered", period.

Many people, such as myself, work on a desktop as well as a portable when away from the office. To have to buy two licenses for this purpose is ridiculous for how little the product *really* does. While I understand the desire to thwart piracy, you should at least allow the software to be activated on two machines.

Additionally, there is no way to "unregister" a workstation (that I can find), so I'm stuck with Gmail Studio being registered on the machine I use the least. It's back to Gmail Notifr as my gmail notification solution. A $10 lesson learned.

CSSEdit

Note: This is a paid upgrade ($14.95). Don't overwrite your existing 1.x version (as I lamely did) until you're sure you want to shell out the extra cash. Thank heavens for back ups...

Yasu

j_mitchell (developer) commented on 21 Sep 2006

Keychain access is going be removed from Yasu 2.0.1 this evening (9/21). Though I haven't been able to reproduce it myself, there have been reports of an issue that corrupts the login keychain. I take the report seriously and I will work to resolve it as soon as possible.

In the mean time, it is recommended that users not store their passwords in the keychain. For those who have, I would suggest you remove the Yasu entry from your login keychain using the Keychain Access application located in your Utilities folder.

PageSpinner

I've used PS since the early, early years off and on. It's good, but I would agree that it's time for a Cocoa based UI make-over.

My real comment is this; I don't think it's right to announce the release of a beta version via VT, and then expect registered users (which I am) to sign up to *possibly* be selected as one of the "small number of testers" once they click through to download. Very misleading in my opinion.

I am a firm believer that VT should be used to announce *publicly* available software (even if it's beta), NOT as a place to garner a beta-test user-base for a developer's own purposes.
