AppDelete is a fine product and for my 2 cents worth the $5. |
|
TrueCrypt 6.0 was released 07/04/2008 (not on MU at this writing). Some of the weaknesses of the Mac version described above have apparently been fixed. Hopefully Gerber will be back to comment. |
|
Do registered users have to buy this version all over again to get the improvements?? Unless I'm overlooking it I see nothing saying 'free upgrade to registered users.' |
|
Flawless install via Software Update. |
|
Apple is typically hush-hush about these things. |
|
Performs flawlessly for me on an Intel 24" iMac, OSX 4.11. |
|
Yeah. What does this thing COST? If it's on the website they've hidden it well! I want to know this before installing the pkg. Thanks. |
|
Meant to add this is on an Intel iMac, OSX 4.11. |
|
I'm going to hold off rating this on the chance I'm overlooking something. In the URL field I entered http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail195.html Since that's neither YT or Google I selected "Other site..." (which doesn't give you the option to say where the site is. It just remains "Other site..."). According to the directions the next thing to do in this instance is select "Download.. as a .flv file" I click but it stays grayed out. Clicking Open URL does nothing. So, what's the story? |
|
"TapeDeck is a new audio recorder exclusively for Mac OS X 10.5" I'll never understand why some developers deliberately exclude themselves from sales to a significant portion of the Mac market, i.e. buyers who have remained with OSX 4.11. |
|
Where does the resultant blended file go? There is no pref for choosing a folder, etc. Until I see some results this thing simply doesn't work. (OSX 4.11, Intel iMac) |
|
Another user on 10.4.11. Bounces in Dock and quits. Even the website doesn't specify whether this is for Tiger or Leopard. I also examined the pkg. contents in detail. No help there either. |
|
"QuickTime movies can be created as "reference" movies or "self contained" movies." Unless I'm missing the point, all one has to do is make an 'alias' of the finished, self-contained QT movie and, "presto!"--you've got your "reference" movie. |
|
Submit the problem you're having to http://macfixit.com/ and you might get a solution. |
|
After creating a 1GB test volume I quit TrueCrypt and relaunched. Clicking "Select a file" displays the just created volume--calling immediate attention to the fact that here is a TC volume! This happens despite "Never save history" and "clear cache" being enabled. This is a glaring security weakness, IMHO. |
|
Great review, Gerber. |
|
Thank you for this excellent software. |
|
Neonblue2, since my last post I figured out a way to dl the needed file, but by now I forget how lol. Also the progress app was indeed inside but for some reason was not being recognized. With the successful download accomplished I'm happy to say all is well. Although... I wish ffmpeg or some other program would let a Mac Intel user reencode the old Indeo3,4,5 codecs. |
|
Isn't route finding capability built into Apple's "Network Utility"? What does this do differently? |
|
Thanks for the update info! |
|
I'm using Safari Version 3.0.4 (523.12.2). I had no trouble with the other two downloads, maybe because they end in ".zip"? I've never seen a file end with 'intel' before. Thanks for answering about progress.app, but if it's bundled in why does it ask where it is? |
|
How do I change "Status: Disconnected" which comes on by default, to "Status: Listening"? I've looked everywhere and I'm baffled how to activate. |
|
And what is this "progress.app" it keeps asking for? |
|
The URL supplied by the app to download the mpeg2enc component doesn't work for me: http://mjpeg.sourceforge.net/MacOS/mpeg2enc.intel |
|
Can you provide a link where Apple said that? |
|
Either that or simply use the word "Enter" or "Return" in place of an obscure (at least to this Macuser of ten years!) symbol. Thanks again. |
|
You're right. Thank you. But tell me, how is one supposed to know that? And why in the world couldn't they use a known keyboard symbol. |
|
What's missing from the description above is WHY you'd want to make "pseudo files." Anyone know??? |
|
Nice, but confusing... what are you supposed to Press when you want to keep a resized screen? The symbol it tells you to Press doesn't correspond to anything on a Mac keyboard! |
|
neil_m, thanks for an informative post! Really appreciate you taking the time. |
|
Up front this is not a knock on the product because I have no idea what it is, does, or what to do with it. I just wish intriguing software like this came with plainly written easy to comprehend, step-by-step instructions. Like, if this is some sort of proxy that hides your real IP address on the Internet (for example) I wish it would just say so! |
|
The best of the lot. Thanks! |
|
Indispensible. Five stars. For the _rare_ times this won't do the job there are other apps that will. |
|
Cut the French text and Paste it here to get a rough translation into English: http://babelfish.altavista.com/ |
|
Thanks! |
|
Reason I asked is because F4M doesn't play some WMVs for me. Seeing as I never installed WMP on this Intel iMac [btw why does installing WMP ask for your admin pw? That's why I dumped it], I simply wondered if not having WMP installed could be the reason. |
|
Does Windows Media Player need to be installed for this to work? |
|
I stand corrected, it's admin, not root, pw. You are correct. Nevertheless, checking for updates should be OFF by default. Let the user enable it if he wants to. Just MHO. |
|
Security breach? Upon first launch Little Snitch popped up an alert that "iDefrag Demo wants to connect to faraday.coriolis-systems.com on TCP port 80 (http). After that's established _then_ iDefrag asks you type in your root password. No Sale, Coriolis. |
|
Why are Christians so careless about capitalizing "Bible" (see Description above)? Anyone else's indifference I could understand... |
|
One more thing. The above should not be taken as a negative against Diogenes, which I've been unable to test because, for whatever reason, I'm unable to access the database. |
|
Thank you, Admin. Unfortunately (for me) there is lots of What, Where and Why but no *How To*. The fonts are installed, the Greek letter test page reads correctly, but enter a simple word search and all I get is not found/gibberish instead of Greek. |
|
Will someone please tell me how to access the databases Diogenes needs to search? Are they online? Are they free? Where?? |
|
Can someone please explain why selecting Check for updates *Never* keeps reverting to "once a day"? I discovered it because Little Snitch keeps saying CCC3.0 wants to connect to mew.bombich.com on TCP port 80 (http). Seems "Never" becomes "once a day" every relaunch. |
|
A free Stones concert?? You rock!! :-) |
|
Why was the .bz2 even there? Thanks for the tip. |
|
This was my Number One text app for years. I really miss it on since moving on to Intel. Were the Dev to make this UB I would buy it in an instant! |
|
You just drag the file onto the icon and it works. Flawlessly. Everytime. Five stars -- 'nuff said! |
|
But his comment as a general recommendation is true: use Disk Warrior before _anything_ else! DW is unparalled for safety and effectiveness. |
|
Does that mean TOR is useless on Mac Intel machines? |
|
No one has an answer to this (?) |
|
Where is the encrypted file created? Is the destination selectable? I'm not finding a "Save encrypted file to..." option. |
|
Nice job. Two requests for a future version to make safeThis even safer. Keep Add to KeyChain unchecked by default, and use stronger encryption. AES 128 these days is a joke. |
|
First time trying this and I'm puzzled. Why does only the current line I'm typing show and the lines preceding keep disappearing?? I've been all through the preferences and don't see how to disable this 'feature.' |
|
I want to make changes in the Default Viewer's checkboxes but every one is checked and grayed out so that you can't uncheck any. Solution anyone? |
|
An already superfast cable connection made even faster by this app. And that's without any advanced tweaking. I'm impressed! |
|
EL-CRAVITO, thanks for the great tip! |
|
What encryption algorithm does this use? |
|
Excellent comment. I completely agree. |
|
Is this a new feature? I've tried using my iMac's built-in mic but nobody understands what I'm saying. Evidently the mic transmits poorly using Skype. Has Skype somehow remedied this??? |
|
meatmcguffin, I read you ;-) check out http://www.nzbmatrix.com |
|
Where are your stars then? |
|
Looks like a Windows app (?) |
|
Really weird. I've tried five different browsers, cookies and javascript enabled, used OpenDNS, even changed IP addresss (right now I'm "coming from" China!) but all to no avail. Everytime I click Download I briefly get the .dmg URL in the address window but it quickly snaps back to this page -- without downloading the file. |
|
Won't download from this page. Going to the dev page and clicking download just returns me to this MU page. |
|
Asks "Where is GrowlHelperApp.app?" Huh? (OSX 3.9) |
|
There is nothing like rebooting to clear away any cobwebs :-) |
|
Finally something that converts those G-d-awful Winblows video files into .mpg or .mov?? Ooh, I hope so!! |
|
Thanks for this comment. I spend my meager app money only on responsive developers. |
|
Sometimes it handles 7z, other times not. All in all it's an excellent piece of software. (OSX 3.9) |
|
Great app! Only one of its kind for the Mac, AFAIK. |
|
How do you know? The download link doesn't go anywhere :/ |
|
This is hilarious! Good job(s), dev! |
|
I'm on Panther and Perian is Tiger only. Thanks just the same. |
|
Didn't I read somewhere that Streamclip now plays .flv files? Yet when I throw an .flv files at it it says "File open error - Unsupported File Type." Or am I wrong about this? Anyway, that aside, I love MPEG Streamclip. Five stars all the way. |
|
If you worry about this being spyware -- and paranoia IS okay -- use Little Snitch _and_ encrypt the info before you iSafe it. |
|
Ummm... thanks for nothing frosty, ummm...... |
|
Disappointing demo. I wanted to see how it handled two 1-Gig VOB's but it couldn't even begin. Well I'm not purchasing just to find out it can't do this. Really, devs, you oughta allow at least ONE unlimited test drive. |
|
'Burning video not supported in Panther.' (?) |
|
Just a healthy reminder, people: use NetShade's proxy and *he* knows every place you go and everything you type. After all it's his proxy and his logs. Word to the wise and all that :-) |
|
This probably is, also from them, at $22,499.00 (that's not a typo :) http://www.thepixelfarm.co.uk/news/newsarticles.aspx?NewsID=79 |
|
Perhaps it's me, but... why not just pause iTunes? |
|
Too many beachballs with 7.7. Had to go back to 7.5. (iMac OSX3.9, 1.8G CPU, 2G RAM) |
|
"You are offline. You need to be online to make and receive Skype calls." No Skype, I am ONline. But this is the message I keep getting after installing Skype 2.5.0.38, making Skype useless now. |
|
Which would shut out us Panther people, so no thanks :) |
|
Thanks, SERBIAN, will try what you say. Maybe there's hope after all . . . :) |
|
How about converting ISO to ANYTHING Mac plays with QuickTime? Is there ANY program which will do that?? (this is not a knock on MPEG2 Works 4 Advanced, just my frustration talking). |
|
Cool! I did not know this. Thanks. |
|
For a brief minute I thought this would finally be the OSX app that played INDEO codec avis. Shot down again :-( |
|
Well obviously this is NOT a revision to install if you've been using SD with iTunes store songs :-( |
|
Is this of any use to a home user who wants to not simply delete but remove his mail from the Gmail or Yahoo server? |
|
Is this a Developer comment or a user comment?? If you are the developer--well, thanks. |
|
Version 6.6b1?? The app itself says it is "version 1.0.3". Why such a discrepancy? |
|
As a Bible-believing Christian I have no problem with this game. The Bible is a book of God's love for us in Christ, yes. But it is also a book of God's justice, and judgment upon unrepentant sinners. |
|
I love it that they are still supporting Panther! Thanks, Lemke. |
|
The way I understand it, the IP address captured by a website someone else visited may be YOURS if you connect to TOR. Let's face it, you don't know where someone else using TOR is going on the web or what data he's sending. His IP will be hidden but the exit TOR user's will not. The site he visited may be very objectionable to you if you knew. It's a crapshoot whose exit IP TOR will use in the connection. Maybe yours, maybe someone else's. Thus you could be the one logged as having visited an illegal site even though you didn't. Correct me if I have this all wrong. |
|
Are file *names* erased permanently, too? |
|
Works flawlessly combining mpgs. The results play on QT and DivX player for me but for some reason not on MPlayer or VLC. Thanks for this swell freebie! (OSX 3.9) |
|
THANK YOU VERY MUCH for all your helpful answers! |
|
That's what's so puzzling. The call data log shows all excellent readings. I have an extremely fast cable connection. Yet my words were unintelligible. Her voice was clear. |
|
Does the called party need Skype installed to hear you? I'm new to this. The Skype test call I made played back fine, but calls to my sister to her landline and cellphone from NY to FL -- all she heard was my garbled voice, although I heard her fine. Also, how to I learn my calling number that she can call me on? Don't find it anywhere. iMac OSX 3.9 |
|
"Military grade encryption" is a meaningless term in the encryption community. |
|
Why do you recommend a phone here that is Windows 2000 or XP only? |
|
For that you'll want Ajoiner. |
|
I'm confused. This will only work with dual CPU's? Regardless of the power of your single CPU? |
|
Is there any OSX player around that will play wmv's that were encoded with the old Indeo 3-4-5 codecs? |
|
Worthless to me. Asked it to remove the extension .ts from the end of a folder full of .ts files. It couldn't. Asked it to remove "p.0" from the middle of the same files and replace it with "p." It couldn't. I'm glad so many others are having such roaring success though. I'll look elsewhere. OSX3.9 |
|
Works as advertised in OSX.3.9. Thanks. |
|
Same here, clicking download takes me back to the MU page. Control-click downloads html. Safari 1.3.2, OSX3.9 |
|
Works as advertised. Not sure about $20 though. YMMV. |
|
"Release notes for this app are never available..." Why is that? This kind of policy is viewed with suspicion in the security field. |
|
The problem with metronomes on computers is if you are doing other tasks and CPU usage hits 100% the beats will hiccup or stall. So while a nice idea not completely reliable on a computer. |
|
Two steps to save $50.00: 1) In your newsreader type 'nzb' in the address window while in any opened newsgroup. 2) When the resulting nzb's in the newsgroup are revealed download the ones you want. (Fifty dollars??!!) |
|
If only VLC could slide movies forward and back smoothly like QT does! It still remains impossible to freeze on a particuar frame with VLC. Other than that, it is quite good. |
|
I suspected; you had the facts. I stand corrected. |
|
Didn't this used to work under OSX3.9? Why stop supporting that? Not everybody has moved to Tiger. In fact I suspect most have stuck with Panther. |
|
Smooth, fast, sleek. Does the job without a hitch. |
|
[WM: please correct 'work' to "word". Thanks] |
|
$249.00?? I should have added the work "free" (or nearly so). Anyone? |
|
This shouldn't be possible -- but there it is! |
|
Can you use this as is, out of the box, to encrypt as you can with PGP? Or is this only something for developers to work with? |
|
Well, it was helpful to me knowing I'm not the only one. |
|
Will check it out. Thanks! |
|
Is there a drum program (this or another) where you can tap out rhythms with your fingers and it converts what you tap into a drum solo? Now that would be cool :) |
|
Thanks! |
|
It's Bible, not 'bible.' Come on, you should know better. |
|
Forgot to add: iMac OSX 3.9, 1.8GHz, 2GB memory. |
|
Right away trouble: launching makes my menu bar disappear so that I can only quit using force-quit. Also you have to agree to it phoning in to 3 different sites including a banner ad site. Use Little Snitch of course to block this. |
|
The only 3-star *** (highest anonymity) proxies that work are the same handful based in Malaysia. All others listed as 'available' by NetShade test red (closed). It's been that way for months. Suspicious. |
|
hehe, hear hear! |
|
But how can we be certain the destroyed file is being overwritten X number of times. Over thirty? How do we verify it's not 3? As for the name being overwritten, if it is simply moved to a free space the filename won't show up even by a search for invisibles - right? Thanks for replying |
|
Of course, the user has no way of confirming what is going on. It's just on the dev's say-so :) Important: are file and folder *names* securely overwritten too? It's usually just the contents with apps like these... |
|
This is awesome!! Under options, set the "fog" color to deep blue and the "wall" color to deep red. Stare and enjoy the trip...! |
|
Thoth still exists, it's just no longer being updated. |
|
Do you mean avi's using the old Indeo codecs? Nothing plays those in OSX... unless this is the first?? |
|
No "Play" button appears either before or after dropping file in. Unusable here but I won't neg rate it in case I am doing something wrong - though I don't know what, I read the entire PDF. |
|
He means Little Snitch :-) http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/10426 |
|
After reading the description I thought to myself, This sounds nice, I would pay $5 for this. Then I saw the asking price...! LOL. |
|
The game opens by you doubleclicking the Exegesis application file. When you do it fades the screen and brings up the loading screen. The game takes WAY too long to load though. I finally bailed out during the "scattering the nations' load, which went on and on and on.... |
|
Yeah but why was it released that way? |
