Schoolhouse 2.1 Type: Comments Date: 6 Apr 2008 18:45

I am glad that version 3 is being worked on, but I would love a small update for the current version to remove the Intel-specific bug since running Schoolhouse in Rosetta brings my MacBook to a crawl whenever I use it.

iEatBrainz 1.07 Type: Comments Date: 8 Jan 2008 00:16

Is this project dead? Either way, what is a good alternative?

OurTunes 1.3.3 Type: Comments Date: 7 Jan 2008 23:23

Is there a status update for development? If not, can anyone recommend similar alternatives?

GutenPrint 5.1.4 Type: Comments Date: 28 Dec 2007 12:52

This release doesn't seem to have the Brother HL-2040 even though it has CUPS 1.1. What gives?

GrandPerspective 0.99 Type: Comments Date: 3 Dec 2007 12:58

I really enjoy this program. Could there please be an option, though, for including the Trash?

SIMBL 0.8.2 Type: Comments Date: 27 Nov 2007 21:50

So plugins MUST apply to ALL users on the computer? What's the security risk of allowing users to install plugins in their home directory?

PithHelmet 2.8 Type: Comments Date: 27 Nov 2007 21:49

I'm patient waiting for a version that works with Safari 3.0.4 on Mac OS X 10.4.11, but I would just love an update from the developer. Any timetable or to-do publicly available?

SafariPlus 1.5.1 Type: Comments Date: 27 Nov 2007 21:48

I can't seem to find any way to email the developer. There is no official version for Mac OS X 10.4.11 and Safari 3.0.4. I hope that an update comes out soon and that the Allow GIFs checkboxes are usable.

SafariStand 3.0L151 Type: Comments Date: 27 Nov 2007 21:44

Flash videos in Safari read "Plugin - click to load" despite "Load plugins manually" being unchecked in the "Stand" menu bar item. Clicking it does NOT load the video, and removing SafariStand.bundle and restarting Safari makes the videos load automatically and without problem. I have Safari 3.0.4 and Mac OS X 10.4.11 with SafariStand 3.0T151. Please update! Also, I wish there were an option to disable certain elements, like the "Export to PDF" contextual menu item.

0.94 Type: Comments Date: 26 Nov 2007 22:31

Why isn't this included in the official release? I bet if the translator visited the Transmission forums, the developers would gladly add it to the next version.

PithHelmet 2.8 Type: Comments Date: 19 Nov 2007 17:46

That little hack crashes Safari for me so I will just wait patiently for an official update.

Saft 10.0.2 Type: Hint/Tip Date: 19 Nov 2007 08:26

http://haoli.dnsalias.com/Saft/Download/index.html Saft 9.0.1 is exclusively for Mac OS X 10.4.11 and Safari 3.0.4. It's the second item listed on that webpage. And in my experience, the developer does respond to emails.

PithHelmet 2.8 Type: Comments Date: 12 Nov 2007 09:52

So is this compatible with both Tiger and Leopard? Under Tiger, is it compatible with both Safari 2 and the Safari 3 beta?

MAME OS X 0.118 Type: Comments Date: 9 Nov 2007 11:27

Is this Leopard-compatible? And is it made by the same crew are MacMAME? Which one would you say it better?

Microsoft Office 2004 11.3.9 Type: Comments Date: 7 Nov 2007 19:06

After installing this update both the About Box and Get Info for Microsoft Word list it as version 11.3.8.

Letterbox 0.16 Type: Comments Date: 7 Nov 2007 15:40

Download does not seem to be working, either from MU or from the dev's site.

PithHelmet 2.7 Type: Comments Date: 3 Nov 2007 11:58

I can say the same.

Winclone 1.5 Type: Review Date: 13 Oct 2007 10:51 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

Winclone is a great utility for backing up and restoring your Boot Camp Windows installation. It's simple, fairly quick, and free! The UI could be prettier but Winclone is far superior to any other utility I could find for this purpose.

CanoScan Toolbox 5.0.11 Type: Comments Date: 22 Aug 2007 15:21

I have a CanoScan LiDE 80 and when I try to use CanoScan Toolbox 5.0.1.1 it says "Failed to open a driver." I went to Canon's website and went to the support page for my specific scanner and they version of CanoScan Toolbox that they list is 4.1.3.0. Is the new version not compatible with my scanner or do I have to do something special for it to work? 4.1.3.0 works fine still but I really want a Universal Binary so it would be great if someone could help me get 5.0.1.1 working.

Jing 1.2.5 Type: Comments Date: 18 Aug 2007 20:04

It works great, but the interface is not very Mac OS X-like and it saves the videos to the Flash .swf format. Change those two shortcomings and this will be one great piece of software.

Voice Candy 1.1.4 Type: Comments Date: 6 Jun 2007 16:43

I agree!

Tor 0.1.1.26 Type: Comments Date: 28 Mar 2007 17:05

Why is it phoning home?

Tor 0.1.1.26 Type: Comments Date: 28 Mar 2007 17:05

How did you do this?

Griffin PowerMate X 2.0b20 Type: Comments Date: 24 Mar 2007 15:47

It looks like the last three beta releases have had the same release notes. What is truly different in this release?

Stuffit Expander 11.0.2 Type: Comments Date: 16 Mar 2007 00:22

Thank you! I assume they want to spam you with product offers, so I used a disposable dodgeit.com email address for a client of mine. The link led to the same place… asking me for my email address. Maybe they have a blacklist for such disposable email websites, but I wish they would say that because I was confused why I kept having to enter my email address. Have other people had similar experiences?

Yojimbo 1.4.1 Type: Comments Date: 13 Mar 2007 00:28

Yes, why doesn't it support adding files such as Excel documents, disk images, or image files?

Schoolhouse 2.0.2 Type: Review Date: 8 Mar 2007 17:46 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

This software is great. The developer hasn't responded to any of my emails but who can complain about solid and free software? Definitely give this a try.

0.2 Type: Comments Date: 1 Mar 2007 20:36

Please make this a Universal Binary. It's a fun screen saver!

Baywatch 1.0 Type: Review Date: 25 Feb 2007 16:38 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

This software is simple and great. Will it ever be updated as a Universal Binary, though? I hope so!

Vienna 2.1.1.2109 Type: Review Date: 7 Feb 2007 02:38 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

Compact, simple, and fairly powerful RSS reader. Cocoaforge's Vienna forums has friendly developers who respond quickly to posts. And who doesn't love open source? Thanks!

Microsoft IntelliType Pro and IntelliPoint 6.0 Type: Comments Date: 3 Feb 2007 18:39

Same here. Mac OS X 10.4.8 on a Power Mac G4 with no problems in the 5.1 software.

Microsoft IntelliType Pro and IntelliPoint 6.0 Type: Comments Date: 3 Feb 2007 18:37

But is it through Rosetta that the Preference Pane / application run? Does anyone know if Microsoft is working on a Universal Binary version of the software? Or if Microsoft plans to update the software at all?

(h)iStoryboard 1.7 Type: Comments Date: 12 Jan 2007 20:06

I think that file you heard was one of the websites in your history being loaded by (h)iStoryboard. Anyways, no updates since 2005. Are these guys still around?

CanoScan Toolbox 4.1.3.0X Type: Review Date: 26 Dec 2006 13:48 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

I wish other software worked with my CanoScan LiDE 80 (if anything else is compatible, please let me know so I can ditch this software!). Sometimes it doesn't connect with the scanner for silly reasons, the interface is poor, options are limited, and it's PPC-only (does anyone know if this will be made a universal binary?). I only use this software because I don't know of any other software that works with my scanner.

Babelizer 2.1 Type: Comments Date: 26 Dec 2006 13:20

Make this a universal binary, please!

Noise X 1.1 Type: Comments Date: 26 Dec 2006 13:16

Will this ever be a universal binary?

BusyBee 3.6 Type: Comments Date: 26 Dec 2006 13:15

This program is cool—I'd love to see it be made a universal binary. Any chance of this?

Check Failed Password Attempts 0.1.9 Type: Review Date: 14 Dec 2006 02:39 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

Will this ever be updated as a universal binary? I hope so! Also, is there a way to get it to show what the incorrect password attempts were? I'd like to see what others tried as my password and what I typed when I mis-typed my password.

CrazyMirror 2.1 Type: Review Date: 27 Nov 2006 15:41 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

This is so fun! I would love this to be a screensaver or have iChat/Photo Booth interoperability.

Maintenance Automator Action 3.6 Type: Review Date: 5 Nov 2006 22:46 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

I have used Maintenance Automator Action for many months now and I love it! It does what I want and does it well. The developer has commented on suggestions that I have emailed him so it is great to know that he is actively involved with this program.

1.2 Type: Review Date: 17 Oct 2006 20:00

I love this application. It is so simple and gets the job done. I truly hope it will be updated as a Universal Binary and that the developer will restart support for it (the link seems to be dead for now).

Name that iTune! 2.2.2 Type: Review Date: 12 Oct 2006 17:41 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

This widget is great! I just wish it would get an update soon. Specifically, I wish it would save the window position so that I don't have to reposition it at every restart. Also, are widgets automatically Universal Binaries? If not, I hope the developer releases a new update and makes it a UB!

Bigfoot 2.2 Type: Review Date: 4 Oct 2006 23:11 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

This is great! Will all of Stick Software's applications eventually go Universal? It's been a few years since some of Mr. Haller's programs have been updated so I hope to see some Intel compatibility soon. Try this program!

PixelToy 2.6.1 Type: Review Date: 2 Oct 2006 17:14 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

This is great! I wish it would be updated, though. At least just make it a Universal Binary!

Osirus 1.1.3 Type: Review Date: 21 Sep 2006 00:51 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

Please Universal-ize this! I love it. Lots of customizable options and it's good looking to boot.

TextLightning 3.1 Type: Comments Date: 14 Sep 2006 20:07

I installed that xpdf but I don't know how to get it to work. Any ideas?

Butler 4.1.2 Type: Comments Date: 5 Sep 2006 23:51

I agree with Mudflapper—it runs flawlessly on my system.

Apple Bluetooth Firmware Update 1.2.1 Type: Comments Date: 14 Jun 2006 23:18

I have a Power Mac G4 but a D-Link USB Bluetooth adapter… is this update for or not for my computer? Thanks.

Backpack 2.0 Type: Review Date: 19 Apr 2006 14:36 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

This is great and has so much potential.

Pixel Fix 3.0 Type: Comments Date: 18 Apr 2006 17:29

This seems to conflict with the Maintenance widget.

Conto 1.2 Type: Review Date: 29 Mar 2006 21:08 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

Very easy! It's simple, so don't expect many features. I hope the author includes minor updates and Universal binary support, although it hasn't been updated in years.

VLC RAR-Loader 1.0 Type: Review Date: 28 Feb 2006 23:14 Features: Ease of Use: Value: Stability:

Thanks! This plays an XviD that VLC (standalone) and everything else wouldn't. This compact application is just what I'd been looking for for about a month.
