Nice work AOL...first release in years and an ftp download is what they came up with. Heard about corporate firewalls?

I like the idea behind this program and it could be a hit but...

The first issue seems to be an error or a misunderstanding. The manual says it will overwrite the remote mac's data. In my case it seems to merge the address book I'm sending with the one existing on the remote mac. The result is a mess on the remote mac with lots of duplicates in the address book.

Second issue is the UI. The tasks that this program does are so simple that there should not be a need for a manual. Why not have two panes in the UI. Local mac on the left, remote on the right. List the application in each pane and an arrow between each app. All you need to do is to point the arrow in the direction you want to send the data and check an option check box next to the app if you also want to do a backup. "My mother" would understand. The "session with folder" does not show up for me.

Third...when I did the copy there was no feedback on the copy process. The progress bar was not showing anything and after a few seconds it updated the UI and showed the next app being copied. Also with a "dead" progress bar.

I run 10.5.2 on both macs and ToMac 1.5.3.

Download is broken (I can't login. The same login worked fine for the last upgrade) for the latest upgrade and the developer is not responding.

SUCKS!!!!!

Try Plaxo. I did and it keeps all my address books and Calendars in sync. Basic version is free and 99% of what I need is in the free version. I did pay pay but I must admit that I rarely use the paid features.

On the subject if gSybc they said a refund was not a problem...well, I haven't heard from them since. Nor have I seen any money.

Stay away!

Yep, that was it:-) I never meant to say that the app didn't install...I was just amused by the typo:-)

Kind of funny that the 1.3 installer is installing the 1.3 installer...not the app:-)

Before I went ahead and re-installed FF I simply removed the Snap Shot folder from Library/Application Support folder for FF. It seems to work just fine. Don't know if FF maintains entries to Add-Ons in any other locations or config files but so far FF seems ok again.

Thanks! It completely screwed my Firefox install. Firefox won't start and I'm looking at a re-install...

What do you mean wit "We don't do anything with your event data?"

There is a setting in gSync that will override/overwrite Googles calendar data. This means it will potentially delete data in Googles Calendar..right?

I'm trying to understand how any type of misstake in gSync would allow ALL data in my Google calendar to be wiped out. It clearly happend exactly when gSync started throwing errors. I had the Google calendar open in a browser window and saw it reload with garbage.

I think you should consider having gSync do backups on both sides before touching anything. I know a little about software development. I'm working at Oracle in Development and have done so for the last 5 years (17 years in the industri). I'm just now so irritated at myself for not having a backup of my Google calendar. That will NEVER happen again.

I haven't done it yet.

I will but what happend was that I installed gSync. Configured my gmail account, mapped iCal and Gmail calendar and synced. I got a conflict that I tried to resolve twice and sync again. The third time gSync threw an error. My entries in gmail was now removed....ALL of them. In iCal the caklendar I was syncing with was also cleared out. Both that one and gmail instead had a bunch of entries like "David back from London" David this and David that, "Brooklyn" in multiple locations.

Looks like either someone elses data or demodata. Not familiar to me.

What is there to do. Does Google keep a backup of my data? Would be a nice surprise. It was the gmail calendar that had all my entries of interest.

No backup of Google Calendar...only iCal but that didn't help. Google was cleaned out and my iCal filled with somebody elses crap...can you believe it?

If the developer is listening...why don't gSync do a backup on both calendare before potentially screwing things up? This new feature is a free idea from me.

Now that I have two clean calendars gSync seems to work...duh.

Try http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/index.html

It's free, works and runs circles around Froq....

I don't understand why I should pay for something that is so limited in functionalty and Oracle themselfs provide FREE alternatives (SQL Developer, Java Client too or APEX, a web tool) that provides MUCH more functionality.

I think TOAD is still free but it's only for Windows. Provides tons of features over Froq.

The comment about birth control is just stupid as the program is developed with the intention of HELPING with pregnancy.

Another thing...did you read my first comment? I said VMware / Parallels will run your PC on your mac. Not your Windows app.

I know what I'm talking about and have tried both. VMware and Parallels works fine. Yes the require a license...I know. But it works. Crossover = sort of works = headache. I just don't believe it will ever work properly. To me (and most of us)time = money. That also means that Opensource is not free. There is no license fee...but it's not free. Don't fool yourself...

To me the computer is a tool for doing other things than making the tool work. Did you ever see a carpenter spend half of his time polishing his toolbox?

How about Parallels or VMware? That will run your PC on your Mac.

Should work if you connect to internet from your host and have Parallels VM run in shared network mode. It would use NAT to access anything your host is connected to.

Nice idea but...the integration with iTunes is downright stupid. Why? Why? Why?

What's to say that I have the artists I'm interested in in iTunes...or even want to have them there?

MAKE THE INTEGRATION OPTIONAL!

1. Did you try iGlasses?

2. After changing the settings in Skype...did you restart Skype?

Tip. Best sound (no echo) is with a headset with a mic. Any model will work.
