A great timesaver! Glad to see it updated, and I have never had an issue with APE, Unsanity, or this developer. |
|
Man, I love this little app! It is simply the cleanest means of keeping current with weather conditions that exists in the Mac world today. |
|
Mine went crazy too, but the developer is aware of the issue: Important notice! Dear WeatherDock users, it has come to my attention that the format of the feeds delivered by weather.com and used by WeatherDock have been changed, causing some undesired behaviour in the WeatherDock application. I will investigate this issue and try to find a solution. If this issue can be resolved then I will be posting a new version a soon as possible. Please check back later, or use the 'Check for updates' item in the WeatherDock menu. Regards, Alwin Troost |
|
A non intrusive great little does-as-you-wish app for when you want to keep your computer from sleeping that works well. What else can I say? |
|
Simply the best mail notifier in the Mac world. So glad to see it back as I missed it dearly. Mail.appetizer was always ahead of it time, and nothing beats it for convenience and elegance. |
|
Being an existing user I too found it slow until I upgraded. Maybe it is all the software registration constraints that are hindering the speed? I don't know. |
|
People, people, people, simply do a RESTART, not a LOG OUT to get matters back to normal with this latest version. |
|
Simply do a Restart as a Log Out did not do it for me; a Restart did. |
|
This is my favorite in its particular category. Well done and supported. |
|
I'm patience too, but I am already going into withdrawals! |
|
Here are some basic notes of the new features in v4.1: Tinderbox 4.1 lets you - display even more information in maps and outlines - use agents and rules to move notes to new containers - work with dates before 1904 - send email to a specific Tinderbox container, and take actions when it arrives |
|
Martin, I thank, and appreciate you for this application that has now replaced my beloved PithHelmet. You are also receiving a donation from me for your time and effort. |
|
Try "Reset Safari" in Safari's menubar under "Safari." |
|
Why pay for this? Because Onyx can seriously destroy your Mac OS as seen with Onyx version 1.9.1 that was released as a master versus a beta. This application has never destroyed my Mac OS. |
|
Finally! Now, it is possible to allow those sites that you want to see ads appear as they would with this version. One of those sites, for me, is MacUpdate. I am a registered user of PithHelmet, but it simply will no longer work for me for some reason or another. During the interim I started using Safari AdBlock, but to be truthful I may not go back to PithHelmet as this application is refining itself quite nicely, plus, it works. |
|
I have many drives, and Spotless is the best means of handling volume indexing that I have come across. Since its beginning I have licensed Spotless, and I find the upgrade fee to be more than fair considering how much use and time you receive from each version of Spotless. The Developer is very receptive. I am anxious for Printer Setup Repair to be released for Leopard; another must-have utility by the same Developer. |
|
I have so tried so many of these applications throughout the years, but SpamSieve is the definitive spam filter application. Excellent support, and application. |
|
I like it with one BIG exception: You cannot see what you are recording. |
|
"Would you happen to be a Steely Dan fan?" Absolutely! Isn't everybody? ;) |
|
Warchild13, Next time you visit to the grocery shop and proceed to pay for your groceries I want to tell the cashier that you have no intention of paying as two years ago the same groceries costs less. Spout your pretzel logic to the cashier about how it is unethical, and how you are getting ripped-off, blah, blah, blah (don't forget to tell the cashier how smart you are). See what happens next. You, and others, clearly demonstrate your lack of life experience with every post you write. |
|
Warchild13, I've never understood people who purchase a Mac and then don't have the money to pay for anything else. Perhaps you should have purchased a PC and joined the PC community? You're definitely part of the "something for nothing crowd." You've already said that you are moving on, "move on." Why comeback and whine if you've going elsewhere? Not to mention that you don't have your facts straight. Adios brother. |
|
Panic and the IconFactory have supported the Mac community for many, many years now, providing creative access to icons, wallpapers, and other free goodies too numerous to describe. They bundle their software together and the uninitiated lambast them without any historical knowledge of Panic. Even to the point where they suggest freebies that essentially ripped-off the initial version of CandyBar. Don't that beat all. The Mac community is changing rapidly, and I don't like what I see in the way of freeloaders. |
|
I do. Give me an email address of where to upload it. |
|
thec13, I tried your solution with Dock Dodger and all works well. Thanks for the useful hint. I especially like that Dock Dodger will revert matters should the need arise. |
|
MCC's strength is its ability to reside discreetly in the menu bar until summoned. As with other commenters, MCC's dock icon, and showing in WorkStrip too (for me) simply takes valuable screen real estate and defeats the very essence of MCC. At least give me the ability to turn-off this feature in MCC's preferences. Luckily I saved the last version of MCC. |
|
This was a zero hesitation upgrade for me. The developer is attentive to registered users and open to betterment suggestions. Default Folder ranks in my top five of must-have apps for the Mac. |
|
First, PhotoPresenter is truly a Mac bargain. Second, Simon the developer, is wonderful to work with. I had an issue whereby PhotoPresenter was not showing all my iPhoto events, and Simon helped me through it by discovering that the error was on my end with iPhoto picking up a backed-up iPhoto library on another hard drive versus where it should have been. PhotoPresenter is simply one of the best means of viewing your photo library. My entire family enjoys using and viewing it. With the holiday season upon us, I am sure that it will be the most popular Mac app on my Mac. |
|
I cannot stress enough how well Leap is geared to those where data is everything. Information can be amassed, organized, deleted, movedÑvirtually anything regarding organization is doable in Leap. Add to this how responsive and open-minded the developers are and you have a winning combination. If you are fence sitting on acquiring a license I would think twice as Leap will be going up in price when it is out of beta. Currently, it is a rare Mac bargain. Try it, submit your suggestions to the developers, and enjoy a great piece of software! Leap is the perfect complement to Yep, or vice-a-versa that is also written by the same team. Enjoy. |
|
Upgrading to 3 was a no brainer for me as Panic has now incorporated Pixadex into CandyBar for the $24 fee. Besides, supporting the better developers keeps them around. As usual, this version is beautifully crafted and easy to use; added is a category for Apple's Dock in Leopard. Great stuff from a great developer. |
|
This is simply a must-have for me, and I can see by the current price it is still a bargain by any standard. Having used X-Gestures for years now I would be lost without it. It is easy to set-up, even easier to use. |
|
Bloody awesome! |
|
"Fore" |
|
I wrote the developer about this and here is his response: "LCC makes heavy use of the unix utility /usr/bin/su. It appears that Apple has made su require that a password not be blank. This behavior is a change from past versions of the OS. I am not able to fix it, although I will be making a bug report to Apple. We will see what happens. In the meantime, the workaround is to create or use an admin account that does not have an empty password. I hope this helps. Thank you for your support." |
|
Well, I sprang for the upgrade as I want to support the developer. Since the USD is valued at less that garbage compost it makes the price higher than it would probably be. That and the fact that the billing goes through a middleman: Digital River GmbH. Oh well, $12.95 is not bad. |
|
Version 2.8 had a "silent update" so make sure that you have downloaded it again to have the latest. |
|
BeLight hit the Mac scene running and have not stopped. Their applications are more efficient, plus, better thought-out than their competition. Mail Factory was first with many features that the competition has now copied. If you want more value, then their bundles are the route to go in licensing. |
|
I am a registered user of FLVR, now VideoBox. FLVR was an integrated solution that worked well; VideoBox is a separate application requiring several more steps to achieve what FLVR did so gracefully. The full value of what this application is trying to achieve will not be reached until it is again integrated into Safari as FLVR was. Until then I am waiting until such integration happens while abandoning this version of VideoBox. |
|
This works well for me. I am waiting for PithHelmet to be updated, but during the interim this covers virtually everything on the many sites I frequent. I found one small ad that made it through on Gizmag. That's it. |
|
This works, and it works very well. Pages load quickly, much quicker than some of the other applications out there touting ad blocking as a feature. It catches pretty much all the ads with a few exceptions, and revised ad blocking list can be automatically uploaded. I wasn't expecting much, but was I pleasantly surprised; great job on the developer's part! |
|
2.1 is giving the following AppleScript Error: The variable theaddies is not defined. (-2753) I'm using Leopard. |
|
I am actually using it under Leopard, and it still works! |
|
It actually works under Leopard! So far I have had no issues. Using it on a PPC Dual G5 with 10.5. |
|
Mellel does not do what WriteRoom does in the manner that WriteRoom does it. Have you actually used WriteRoom? |
|
This is a great little app, BUT it is not Leopard ready according to the developer. |
|
Check your previous post as am receiving an error too. |
|
Whoops...spoke too soon as the error is back: http://myskitch.com/f451/omnigrowl-20071023-124031.jpg |
|
I did quit before installing, but OG kept giving me an error notice and bringing up the OG's preference window. I should have noted the exact error message, but deleting all of OG and starting clean fixed matters. |
|
Wow, I am glad COSJR is having luck as I have been a registered user since the StickyBrain days and there are several outstanding issues with this latest version of SOHO Notes that the developer is not responding to fixing although they are major in nature. No forums make this application substantially less useful to end users. I had to cease relying on it for serious data collection as it is always a guessing game when the developer will actually fix a bug(s). A total shame for a once brilliant application. |
|
You need to use an app like File Buddy and delete any existing older OmniGrowl files as I was having the same issue as you until I did so. |
|
If only Dr. Evil had had Domainer he would have achieved higher maniacal domain rankings! Besides, the sheer fun of Domainer I appreciate the GUI being up to Mac standards. Cool app. |
|
The Goldilocks of Mac timelines apps. Perfect for those got to have it last minute before the meeting get it done for the presentation moments--not too little, not too much, it is just right for what it accomplishes! |
|
I am a longtime registered user of what is now Leopard Cache Cleaner. I had no hesitation purchasing the new LCC license as this developer shrives to constantly keep ahead of, or at least on par with Mac OS upgrades, and updates. |
|
The graphical presentation of data is worth the price of admission alone for those of us studying relationships both visually and written. DEVONtechnologies has dedicated itself to the Mac community with an exemplary suite of complement data gathering applications. |
|
Purchased and licensed! The developer is highly responsive to queries. I have already laden Hazel 2 with many a duty that she is performing flawlessly. No regrets. |
|
Archaic licensing policy is the reason I will not be upgrading to the latest version. Goodbye SRS iWOW. Cool app, but insipid licensing. Hey, it's only a $20 app, why the hoop-jumping limited activations with no deactivation, and reactivation? Just plain stupid. |
|
I am interested, but it does not appear to be Leopard ready, or is it? |
|
Just like RICHARD103 my existing version of iMovie 7.0.1 was completely hosed requiring complete removal and reinstallation. |
|
I believe that you are misunderstanding the registration of TapDex. You can use it for free, but if you want what Yellow Mug is calling Pro features (the use of Vonage, and removal of Yellow Mug's small text line of their own product advertising) then you can buy a Pro license. You have to install TapDex to see what I am trying to explain. If you are not using Apple's Address Book, then TapDex is of no use to you. Here is the description directly from Yellow Mug's website: "TapDex is Free We're making TapDex available for free as a way of giving back to the Mac community and getting our name out at the same time." If you install it you will see what I mean about the Vonage its preferences. It only installs two files: 1) TapDexPane.prefPane 2) com.yellowmug.TapDex.plist You can very quickly see what it has to offer, and delete it just as fast if you like. Where it works exceedingly well, for me, is when my wife uses my Mac (as she uses PC for work on her laptop, but is under strict confidentially agreements, so her PC has no personal data on it, and cannot be used for personal use). She constantly asks me for telephone numbers and addresses, and this is the simplest means of her accessing the data. Everything else you wrote I too share the same opinions. Apple has something brewing with Safari 3, and the iPhone, and it appears that they are trying to have syncing abilities (they we could only dream of in the past) come to fruition, but only through Apple related software. I do not necessarily agree with what Apple appears to be doing. |
|
First, I am not the developer. Second, I have what you have, Jon's Phone Tool, and it sits around idling with allocated memory. Third, I dumped Entourage ages ago. Fourth, this developer does not force anyone to buy this app to use it, unless you want to use Vonage and stop his banners (banners that are not even an issue, more like a line that randomly mentions his other apps). Fifth, why did you even bother to comment about it if you were simply going to demean it for the sake of argument? Sixth, Spotlight is a dog. Use LaunchBar if you want to achieve better results or FIle Buddy if you want to go to the nth degree of locating files. |
|
As hard as I try I cannot manage to get the cue ball to leave the felt or any other ball for that matter. Therefor, it cannot emulate how I actually play pool—badly! |
|
TapDex is simply more convenient when you want a name on the fly without having to open AB. Much, much quicker than Spotlight. |
|
Not only a long-standing Mac developer, but truly a value-added player for the Mac community. Those whom lambast Hamrick really have no comprehension of what his software provides, and why he chooses to keep developing VueScan. Just be thankful there is someone like Hamrick. Hamrick cannot deliver the worldÑbut he tries. |
|
The sad part is that you seem to be taking out on Hamrick what is truly the responsibility of the scanner manufacturer. Hamrick steps-in where the manufacturers fail, and get lambasted for doing so? Go figure? |
|
Okay now, I purchased a license, and as others have stated you are allocated more sound selections including a hilarious one or two. Since turnabout is fair play my wife has stated that there is no Voice selection for: Incessant Apple-motorcycle-car-droning-because-I’ve-had-enough-already. Oh well. Sure wish when I click the close button it would not simply close ChatterBlocker, but rather simply close the window. |
|
You most likely have an older version residing within iPhoto. You have to use the Show Package Contents of iPhoto: iPhoto/Contents/Plugins In the Plugins folder is where it can be found. Also, you may have other older add on plugins, by others that are causing the Export dialogue window not to open. |
|
First, I am thankful for this developer making this app. Second, the name is a misnomer as Grease Monkey has an entirely different meaning than this app's name, but no matter as the CreamMonkey does work. You must find and test those scripts of interest that may or may not work in Safari. Do not simply look for those tagged as Safari as there are only handful so tagged. The reality is that many more will workÑsome to varying degrees. It is a small, but significant start as some of the Grease Monkey scripts are excellent. |
|
Nowhere in the Advanced section does it have a Voice selection: Sister-in-law who cackles above 100 decibels at a fever pitch when around her sister (my wife)...but I'll give it a try anyway. |
|
I was hesitant at first about purchasing a license, but in my correspondence with the developer I made the purchase without reservations. Those who know the USPS system also know that this little software jewel can literally save days in sending mail via USPS. |
|
This is part of my top five must-have apps. So transparent it is as much at home as any of Apple’s own developed software. Easy access to past, present, and future iCal events; the easiest way to remember a birthday. When you use someone else’s Mac you immediately notice its absent. |
|
If you have been following Midnight's blog you will learn that Version 2 is being developed. It looks pretty exciting. http://www.midnightbeep.com/blog/ |
|
As a huge fan of Workstrip I am sorry to see that it has disappeared. I see no substantiation about the circumstance of how SoftChaos disappeared, just hearsay. There is no "time bomb" as version 3.2.3 was made for Intel and version 3.2.2 made PPC. So it you moved to the Intel version that is where the issue occurs if you are running a PPC. Since Leopard has what I am looking for in the way of Workstrip's replacement I am simply waiting out Leopard's release as my version of Workstrip works with no problem. |
|
A developer provides a free piece of software and gets jacked by someone who can't appreciate the developer's point-of-view. What's with that? The icon is just fine. |
|
I'm just thankful that PithHelmet came back online to address Safari 3. I did use IWEDLER little hack to make Saft work, but Saft has other issues with some of its features. I prefer PithHelmet over Saft's ad blocker, but I like the other miscellaneous Saft features beyond ad blocking. |
|
Groovy. Poof! |
|
Doc, In the folder that is included is a text filed named "Installation Notes." In the note is an email address that you write with your problem(s). I've been successfully using this new version with Safari 3. |
|
You can still download the prior version of PithHelmet 2.6.7 that works well with Safari 2.x. Also, PithHelmet is really Honorware. You check the box that says "I Paid" based on you honesty. Doc. have you tried removing SIMBL from your system and running this version on Safari 3.x? It works for me. If you have licensed Red Snapper, and FLVR, simply reload them afterwards. |
|
I do not know that it will not work with Safari 2.x as the installer "Customize" option allows SIMBL to be installed. I am glad that the developer took the time to release this version. It's a start, and the developer is clear about it shortcomings at this point, but there is nothing like PithHelmet, nothing. Mac users' are moving on from Safari 2.x. I'm using 3.x beta, and not returning to 2.x. |
|
I am entirely with Gryphonent on this one, Saft is always several days and dollars short on updates, while others like Red Snapper, FLVR, and 1Passwd are readily compatible. I am a licensed user, but it is frustrating to say the least. |
|
This theme is now up to version 2. You need to watch the developer's link to learn all about the latest. This has become my favorite theme. Very well done! |
|
A genuinely logical method of producing a podcast for the beginner to the professional. Deceptively simple, but intuitive GUI that cloaks powerful fine-tuning abilities to please even the perfectionist. Clever media integration of Skype, iChat, and iLife, and subtle details such as Stealth Mode place Ãœbercaster at the head of the podcasting class! |
|
Without a doubt the missing piece of the PDF puzzle for those who are consumed with data. Great support, and an application that has quickly, and progressively gotten better. |
|
The best $5.50 you'll ever spend on Mac software! |
|
I am ready to purchase, BUT the checkout site is not a secure site. Until then, I'll wait. |
|
I ran into the same situation. The Universal did nothing, but the PPC loaded perfectly. Get the PPC only version. |
|
This works well in the situation that I have where my mother, who is lives in another state, has to rely on others to troubleshoot her iMac when I cannot do so over the telephone, via iSight, or when I am visiting. I have no clue what these people do to her iMac, although she is there watching them. It is a peace of mind that is worth it. So for those who continually lambast this app for whatever reason, maybe they should consider situations where this might actually be very advantageous? The developer is very helpful too. |

|
This is a superb application...as are applications written by BeLight. I have licenses to others in this category, but this one still beats them. |
|
For some reason I cannot get it to launch on my G5 PPC. Love to try it though. |
|
Once installed you are unable to select Customize Toolbar in Safari. Tried to contact developer, and website give no means of doing so. There is no uninstall feature so I hunted down the pieces to remove them and return Safari back to normal. |
|
A first edition application masterpiece! |
|
A wonderful means of fine-tuning your iTunes sound output. I have been looking for an app like this for a long time. Since it does fine-tune you will have to fiddle with it gain the desired output for your collection, but the time spent is worth it! This should have been part of iTunes to begin with...it is that good. |

I purchased this for the full-price, and I couldn't be happier. It's great that others get an opportunity at MailSteward because of all the mail backup apps this one works best (at lest for me). An absolute bargain at this price for those who find it mandatory to backup and access crucial emails. |
|
The majority of Widgets I find useless and delete within a day's time, or the ones that I do find useful are poorly written, but I still use them as I like the information they convey. However, I still cringe when I use them. Delivery Status is one of the very, very few widgets that is well executed and written, actually works the way it was intended, provides useful information, and is visually elegant and well done. A sheer delight to use and look at! |
