TOM HANCOCKS  I renamed TuneX to TuneBar back in February 2007 so this is far from a recent change. The reasons for changing though were due to me becoming aware of a company in Europe owning the rights to the name "TuneX". I decided to change the name to avoid any kind of legal issues.

I have just checked TunesBar out and see that its version 1.0 was released about 1 year and 4 months after I renamed to TuneBar.  
(Version 3.6)

TOM HANCOCKS  I have just received a number of emails since releasing 2.6.2 stating that a few bugs seem to have surfaced for some people. If your experiencing any kind of problems with this version of TuneBar could you please email me any details of your system that you feel will be useful and I will fix the problem as soon as possible.

Thanks,

Tom  
(Version 2.6.2)

TOM HANCOCKS  Hmm, since you posted your initial bug report I have isolated where this problem is, but have not yet been able to fix the problem. On my computer I have never had this problem so have been unable to fix it as quickly as I would have liked. Thankyou for pointing it out though.

TOM HANCOCKS  Hi attentionwandered,

Can I ask how much CPU usage your getting? I'm getting around 1% on my computer. What kind of computer do you use, what software are you using.

As for the other issues I will look in to these, and correct them.

TOM HANCOCKS  Simply minimizing iTunes isn't really as a bigger fix as you would think. Its still an ordinary window as it was before, just a little smaller, and it still requires you to flick back to in to iTunes to use it.

Quite a few of the iTunes controllers are relatively useless (in my opinion) as they are still a big clunky window not looking anywhere near as nice as iTunes'.

However TuneX's controller is designed to take over as little screen space as possible when not in use, and not take the front most focus away from the application you are using like iTunes requires you to.

Some, including TuneX, also provide features like "Hot Keys" to control iTunes so that you do not keep calling up any controller to simple skip tracks or pause them.

I hope this helps you understand why they are made. If not I'm sure you could download one or two and take them for a test drive. They really do come in handy and make your life easier if they are well designed and implemented.

TOM HANCOCKS  Hi everyone,

I've just had it brought to my attention that the version of TuneX on is in fact a beta release of it. I'm am not sure how this has managed to happen but am looking in to it. In the mean time I can only recommend that anyone who has downloaded it, redownload as the problem has been fixed. This should also fix a few bugs you may be experiencing. If you have downloaded TuneX and are running it, you can also go to the TuneX menu and select Check For Updates... to download it directly to your computer.

I am sorry for any inconvienence caused,

TOM HANCOCKS  Did you code it in Xcode? If so did you set it from Debug configuration to Release configuration? a Debug build will work on your computer no matter what, but not everyone elses.

Go to the Project > Set Active Build Configuration > Release to make sure it is set for Release.

TOM HANCOCKS  The ability to create ring-tones from this would be much better if their was an instrument for the actual mobile phones beeps, not instruments.

The interface is fairly sluggish. I'm guessing it was done in REALbasic? I have nothing against REALbasic, but in my experience it has never done metal windows too well. Maybe just stick to the standard aqua window. Just a suggestion.

I don't think this is worth $7 or £3.70 it should be freeware.

Is this your first program, or first public program?  
(Version 1.0.2)

TOM HANCOCKS  This is simply the best catloguing app you could hope to find, it is innovative, well compared to others that i have seen, and is by far one of the easiest to use. The value is almost perfect, if you have hundreds of CD's you want to index then this is a truely invaluable utility.

Once you have used this, you'll wonder how you ever lived with out it.

It also comes with several bits of eye-candy that I can see, or have noticed, with features such as the item height altering in the indexes drawer.
