JUKI  There were always issues when I used either Eudora, Thunderbird or Mail app. I found Mail to be the one that worked best for me, but still not without reoccurring glitches. I've got both a POP account and an IMAP account.

And then I tried Gyazmail.......well, this app really rocks! It's totally stable, fast, smooth and reliable. It works like a Swiss watch and is a joy to use!

I, initially, was reluctant to shell out money for an email client when there are freebies like the three very popular ones mentioned above, but once I gave Gyazmail a spin, I was sold! Been using it for several weeks, now, and I'm smiling all the way. Yes, I think the $18 price is well worth the money; I'm glad I purchased it.  
(Version 1.5)

JUKI  Ok, success at last! The loading process took several minutes, about a minute or longer for the code page to be found and then several more minutes for the code page to fully load. I then saved it to desktop and, voila!, a fully functioning .dmg file which installs fine. v1.3.6 works just fine, too.

Don't know why this download was so laborious for my setup, most other software downloads are smooth and, usually, fast.....oh well, it all ended on a happy note!  
(Version 1.3.6)

JUKI  Hmmm...........I tried downloading it using four different browsers and no go with any of them. I'm not having any problems downloading other software.

Wonder if this is a problem particular to OS 10.3.9 only? Strange!  
(Version 1.3.6)

JUKI  Can't get v.1.3.6 to download; spends a long time trying to load, then I get either a page saying "file not found", or a page filled with code.

OS 10.3.9.  
(Version 1.3.6)

JUKI  For those who can't open SmartBackup; I emailed developer about the bug and he promptly emailed me a corrected download which works fine.

The bug is only in OS 10.3.

The corrected version should be up before long, if it isn't already.  
(Version 2.0)

JUKI  Well, it's definiteley way overpriced at $20; I can find nothing about IP Address Menu that justifies the price.

I use BwanaDik; it's free and has essentially the same features.

On checking out the developer's website, I found numerous apps offered, but they're virtually all overpriced(at least $20), considering their lack of sophistication.  
(Version 3.2)

JUKI  Well, so far I haven't come across any apps that AppDelete hasn't completely deleted. I've used Easy Find: http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/11076

to check for files left behind by AppDelete and haven't found any, yet.

What apps have you found for which AppDelete leaves files undeleted?  
(Version 2.1)

JUKI  Well, so far I haven't come across any apps that AppDelete hasn't completely deleted. I've used Easy Find: http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/11076

to check for files left behind by AppDelete and haven't found any, yet.

What apps have you found for which AppDelete leaves files undeleted?  
(Version 2.1)

JUKI  Really nifty and convenient. I really like the resizable mute button. And the volume level in percentages on the slider

simplifies setting and resetting volume levels.

This is a simple but very useful app.

Thanks to the developer for creating this, and offering it for free.

Well done!  
(Version 1.2)

JUKI  Was unable to download Afloat 1.0b4 from here for some reason, so I downloaded it from the Afloat website, but after installing it found that all my apps kept crashing, so I uninstalled it. Anyone else experiencing problems?

I'm running OS 10.3.9, the stated minimum requirement.  
(Version 1.0b4)

JUKI  Coloriage needs the installation of a photo editor such as Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Photoshop Elements in order for it to be usable; without one it's no go for Coloriage.

Do you have one installed?  
(Version 4.0)

JUKI  As games go,this one IS a bit of a yawn. Ok, maybe kids might get into it...or adults without imagination, but it does get old pretty quickly.

I'd say that World Galaxies doesn't reflect much creative thinking or imagination on the part of the developer.

And for $19.95, you don't really get all that much....yeh, it's definitely overpriced. $5, or maybe $8, is all its worth IMHO.

As a previous reviewer stated, you can do a lot better if you want to spend $19.95 on a game. And even if you want to spend a lot less. And even if you're looking for a freebie.  
(Version 1.1)

JUKI  The trial version is so heavily crippled, that it's impossible to get a good sense of what this thing can really do.

And there's no user's manual, there's just a virtually useless help file which can be downloaded from the website.

I haven't a clue how to use this app; it's EXTREMELY user unfriendly. Apparently, the developer wants to keep potential purchasers in the dark. Yeh, that makes a lot of sense.

Well, screw this app; I'm just not willing to waste my time with it!

In the trash it goes.  
(Version 2.0)

JUKI  Works really beautifully.....installed without issues. Scrolling is smooth as silk, fast and very easy to control. I'd say Smart Scroll X moves the scrolling experience to a whole new level.

Whether one uses one's mouse's scroll wheel or computer's hot keys(called "scroll keys")for scrolling, this puppy works as slickly as a Swiss watch.

A real class act!

I'm using OS 10.3.9.  
(Version 2.0b5)

JUKI  Oops, wrong link. Sorry! EasyFind is here:

http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/11076  
(Version 1.2)

JUKI  EasyFind: http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/10319

is free, and works absolutely superbly.

Try both EasyFind(free) and NameFind($12.50) and then decide which is best for you.

  
(Version 1.2)

JUKI  Melodyne Cre8, which is what your link is for, costs $369(ouch!!!), whereas Midi VST costs $59......big, big difference in prices!

Melodyne might very well be more sophisticated, I don't know, but many of us just can't justify or afford spending $369 but can readily handle $59.  
(Version 1.15)

JUKI  Sorry, but I'm afraid that SoftSkies just isn't all that interesting as a visualizer.

While G-Force, from the same developer, is incredibly unique and wonderful, SoftSkies is, merely, pretty pedestrian. While there are numerous settings to change the forground, background or colors, its still just clouds passing across the sky....I lost interest in it pretty quickly.

And at $20 for the Gold, and $30 for the Platinum edition.....the same as for G-Force, there's just no way I'd pay those prices for SoftSkies....it's definitely overpriced. And I think that the $20 or $30 for G-Force is well worth the money.

While I was, and still am, overwhelmed and awed by G-Force, SoftSkies is totally underwhelming.....it just leaves me feeling cold and disappointed.

I guess I'd have to say that it's somewhat of a turkey.  
(Version 1.0)

JUKI  I had updated itunes to version 7, when I tried OSS 3D. It just didn't work, and made a mess of my dock, too. So I trashed it.

Since I didn't like iTunes 7, I reverted back to iTunes 6.04. Later on, I checked the OSS 3D website and found that version 1.62, for use with iTunes 6 and Panther(OS 10.3) was reinstated, so I downloaded and installed it.

Well now, this version really works....and very well, too! There are a great choice of parameters that can be adjusted, and the results are easy to hear.

I'd say that OSS 3D rocks like a house on fire!!!

I hope that the developer irons out all the bugs in the OSS 3D version for iTunes 7 so that those folks who are using version 7 can discover how really fine OSS 3D truly is.  
(Version 2.03)

JUKI  I found this thing pretty uninteresting. Lost interest in playing it pretty quickly......I didn't find it fun at all, just rather tedious. I really don't think that its got much going for it.

And at $19.95, it's terribly overpriced. While $19.95, generally, seems to be the going rate for games, there are many more out there that can justify the price by being engaging and seductively interesting, two qualities that Brain Boosters lacks.  
(Version 1.0)

JUKI  A really beautifully designed, useful and fascinating reference for those of us that need/want comprehensive data for all Macs produced, from day one to the present.

Frequent updates and improvements keep all data current and accurate and easily referred to.

Thanks for offering it free of charge, too.

Kudos to the developer! Well done!!  
(Version 4.1b2)

JUKI  Runs just fine on my NON-Intel Powerbook 1.5GHz w/OS 10.3.9.

Minimum requirements are NOT OS 10.4.3 as stated, here, on MU's app description, but OS 10.2. The AppleJack 1.4.3rc3 "read me" file included with this download states that this version is good with OS 10.2, OS 10.3 and OS 10.4+, both Intel and non-Intel Macs.  
(Version 1.4.3rc3)

JUKI  Can't download PDFView or connect to developer's website. Tried with two different browsers but no go. Anybody else?  
(Version 0.11.2)

JUKI  Seems to work just as advertised, without any problems or issues. I'm running OS 10.3.9. And thanks to the developer for offering it for free.  
(Version 1.0.1)

JUKI  Fascinating and fun. Runs just fine on my 17" Powerbook 1.5GHz w/OS 10.3.9. No problems or issues encountered so far.  
(Version 4.0.2093b)

JUKI  Just doesn't work in my Mac with OS 10.3.9.  
(Version 0.98)

JUKI  Installed it but just can't get it to launch.

I'm running OS 10.3.9.

After installing and logging out/back in again as per instructions, my Mac's dock's position changed and so did it's contents......very strange, indeed.  
(Version 2.01)

JUKI  Tried it, but just didn't find this game interesting enough to continue playing. After about 10 minutes, I got bored.

The graphics are nicely done, but so what....the game itself is a dud, as far as I'm concerned. This game lacks the kind of "sizzle" that brings one back for more. It's definiteley NOT worth $20. There are many far more interesting and engaging games out there.  
(Version 1.0.8)

JUKI  Re: Dai Yee's comment, above.

Ok, I checked the LiveDictionary Forum and found that the Site Administrator posted this:

"For the more adventurous types out there, I've put together a little guide on how to convince LiveDictionary to load itself into other applications besides Safari. First, the disclaimer: this is totally unsupported, it may not work well, and it could break things. That said, the worst that should happen is that it will fail to recognize some words."

It's a rather cumbersome process of adding code to LiveDictionary's p.lists which, then, MAY or MAY NOT allow LiveDictionary to be usable with SOME apps other than Safari.

It's, essentially, a trial and error process.

User's have contributed lists of a few apps that they've found works with LiveDictionary.

I'm afraid that just doesn't cut it for me.

I want to see LiveDictionary seamlessly and transparently usable with most other apps and browsers.  
(Version 1.2.6)

JUKI  It works quite well, however, I'm not sure that I can justify paying $25 for an app that's usable only with Safari.

Make LiveDictionary usable with any browser

and now you've got a real powerhouse worth the price of admission.  
(Version 1.2.6)

JUKI  Let's see, first you pay $70 for it and then, after the first year, you pay $30 for another year's worth of Trojan definitions....and $30 every year thereafter.

I'd say that's just greed. To hell with them...I'll pass on this.  
(Version 10.4.1)

JUKI  Everything's in French, including the developer's website, although this game is simple enough to figure out.

There's no English translation available, so the finer points are somewhat of a mystery if you don't parlez vous francais.  
(Version 1.1.3)

JUKI  Journler is every bit as good as any other journal software out there, and certainly better than many, with some costing $35 and more.

I still can't believe that the developer is offering this beautiful piece of work for free.

Journler absolutely rocks! eeehaaa!!!  
(Version 2.0.2)

JUKI  Same issue with v.0.63. Can't get scrolling to work.....it's totally unresponsive. Tried to program it several times but no scrolling at all. Zilch  
(Version 0.63)

JUKI  Just can't get the scrolling feature to work;

programmed it per instructions but it's totally unresponsive.

Didn't test any of the other features since I'm only interested in scrolling.

Powerbook Aluminum 1.5GHz(2004 model) OS 10.3.9.  
(Version 0.62)

JUKI  I've got a 5 year old Powerbook stored in a closet; haven't used it in a long time since i upgraded to a newer model. It doesn't have CD burn capability, so I acquired a Sandisk external CD burner from a friend; it's also about 5 years old.

Installed PatchBurn 4.0.1, hooked up my Sandisk burner and voila!, Cds burn easily and without problems.

PatchBurn is really simple to use; integrates seamlessly with my PB's OS. It's a real class act.... Kudos to the developer!  
(Version 4.0.1)

JUKI  Some of us would love to consider Voodoo lite in lieu of ZuluPad but Voodoo requires Tiger....a minimum of OS 10.4.6, and ZuluPad requires just Panther....OS 10.3. A good number of us are still using Panther.  
(Version 0.3.8)

JUKI  This is really a cool little app. Works just fine everytime, no glitches.

At $5, it's a steal......I do think I'd even pay $10 for it.....well, certainly $8; it's really unique, I don't think there's anything out there like it.  
(Version 1.1)

JUKI  I've found Opera to be the most user unfriendly browser out there.......it's very unintuitive and unnecessarily complicated. Quite a vexing user experience.

Some features just don't seem to work smoothly or even work at all and I don't know if it's me or Opera. And trying to figure it out is a rather daunting task.

And as others have pointed out, it's just too bloated. I really don't want or need most of the bells and whistles.

Cumbersome is a word that readily comes to mind regarding Opera.

I just don't see any good reason to use it over most, or any, of the other browsers out there.  
(Version 9.0.2)

JUKI  Superbly done! And it just keeps getting better. I purchased this app about a year ago and refer to it a lot. And at only $10, it's a bargain.

The developer just keeps improving it, offering frequent updates. 5 stars for this beautiful, extremely useful creation, and 5 stars for the developer...a real mensch.

Hardware Monitor rocks!  
(Version 3.9)

JUKI  Handy little app for fast access to Wikipedia articles. One deficiency, though.......since there's no browser involved, one can't go backwards and forwards to review previously viewed articles during one's search session.  
(Version 1.0)

JUKI  Ok then, since the NetShade Proxy is faster and easily available, why not offer it, by itself, for $10 per year. NetShade 3 purchasers will have to pay that yearly fee anyway, after their first year's ownership.

The public proxies are a huge nuisance to use; I, for one, don't want to bother with them. I'd have to purchase the full NetShade 3 just to use the NetShade Proxy.

No thanks, I'll just pass on that.  
(Version 3.0)

JUKI  I tried this app out for the past couple of hours, using it intensively.

I found it to be a real pain; it's quite aggravating to use.

Most of the semi-secure and fully secure public proxies(2 and 3 dot security levels) are not available, and of the very few that are, virtually all are very slow or cause my browsers to freeze(I tested NetShade using several different browsers). And trying to locate one that's both usable and not too slow takes up a lot of time....it's a matter of trial and error; it's quite a laborious process.

In light of my experience with it, I just can't justify purchasing it. So I won't.  
(Version 3.0)

JUKI  After unzipping the file on my desktop, the game won't launch. Anyone else? OS 10.3.9.  
(Version 1.40)

JUKI  Many other's have used PayPal for a while with no problems, only to have, for example, their accounts suddenly frozen for any number of reasons. Then, you're totally screwed, since PayPal can keep your account frozen for as long as they wish, leaving you with no access to your funds, and absolutely no recourse.

If you do a Google search for "PayPal problems", you'll come up with loads of examples of problems that people have encountered with PayPal.

A couple of good alternatives to PayPal are, Cardservice International, and eSellerate.  
(Version 1.9.1)

JUKI  Really slick, fast, and efficient at cleaning up your internet tracks. Works really well, without any glitches....and at only €5, or $6, it's a bargain.

Oh, and the previous reviewer is right about PayPal, it's a very crappy company....they suck with a vengeance! I hope the developer changes to an ethical company, instead.   
(Version 1.9.1)
