ForkLift

tavas commented on 16 May 2012

If devs are reading this: please update Foriklift in the MAS, it's still 2.0.8 there. I buy software only from the App Store (at least I try to) and my Forklift trial is over and I can't use it anymore because I don't want to buy an outdated version (2.0.8). It's been long since 2.5 release and it's still not updated in the MAS.

[Version 2.5]

Telephone

tavas commented on 12 Feb 2012

Triggers discrete graphics, also lacks address book.

Evernote

tavas commented on 10 Feb 2012

Triggers discrete Radeon graphics at startup on my MBP8,2 even though this software doesn't do any heavy graphics processing. Very bad.

[Version 3.0.6]

Postbox

tavas commented on 16 Jan 2012

Postbox 3.0.2 (maybe earlier versions too) forces my Early 2011 MBP to switch to discreet graphics which is a battery killer and so I have to revert to using Mail 5 when I don't have a source of electricity nearby. I don't know how to contact the devs about this so I'll leave it here.

A plugin for QuickLook would be very useful.

Why is it only 3.8.x branch that is being constantly updated while we, App Store users, are stuck on 3.9.2?

Postbox

tavas commented on 04 Dec 2011

I can no longer recommend Postbox to anyone considering how badly they treated their customers who upgraded to 3.x by dropping personal support. Now if you have a problem with Postbox, the contacts page only directs you to: "Visit our Support Portal to browse through Postbox User Guides, our FAQ, or Knowledge Base Articles." And if your question is not covered there, you're... well, on your own.

For some time now I can't find it anywhere on their site where I could file a request for assistance and no email address to write to if I want to get technical support.

> We apologize if your Postbox support experience didn't meet your expectations

I can't tell that since I don't even know how to contact them at all. Either I'm blind as a mole or there is no "Contact support team here!" like link on your site.
Earlier (months ago) I had no trouble contacting the support guys, now I just can't find the option.

iClip

tavas commented on 03 Nov 2011

iClip 5.0 makes scrolling in Firefox 7.01 look laggy. I can see it very clearly: without iClip running scrolling is very smooth, while with iClip, on the same webpage, it becomes jaggy and not very pleasant for the eyes. I will have to avoid using iClip until the devs resolve the situation.

Hello, Tempel.
It's happening on my MacBook Pro Early 2011 (i7 2.2, 4gb RAM, Radeon 6750) running 10.7.2.

It happens not only when the iClip panel is visible, but also when it's hidden outside the screen area. It happened on every page I tried.
The difference was obvious enough so that I actually noticed it as it was quite annoying.
As soon as I quit iClip it became smooth again. Then I started iClip one more time and webpage scrolling again was choppy.

Maybe this bug (if there is really a bug) is Lion specific and that's why you're not experiencing it on your system.

Tempel, I sent a message to the address you'd provided. :)
