NationalDebt
May 8 2008
*****

BLUEJAY3132  Works as advertised. Would like to see two options in the future:

1) Auto-refresh

2) Selectable time between auto-refreshes

Great little reminder for those of us concerned about this staggering debt.

Intel MBP, 10.4.11

Thanks to Yellowsoft.

MCANDRE  Done. I created this app before I learned to set preferences (see SiteStatus.app). NationalDebt does already refresh, but the default is 5 minutes so you might not have noticed or waited for the refresh.

BLUEJAY3132  I sent Don an emailed question and he responded within hours - and I'm not even a customer - yet. Sent him a thank you email, and damned if he didn't respond to that one, too. Impressive. I'll be supporting this software author, especially after reading the glowing reviews here and on other sites.

Microsoft Office 2004
Nov 7 2007

BLUEJAY3132   I have Office 2004 set for "check for updates Manually". Not having seen any horror stories for 11.3.9, decided to try this update. Word - Help - Check for Updates. It first installed 11.3.5. Repeated the process for 11.3.6, 7, 8, and 9. Everything seems to be working. Word - About says 11.3.8, Excel says 11.3.7, Powerpoint 11.3.5, and Entourage 11.3.6.

FWIW, I don't use 2004 anymore, but I paid for it so I'm not going to throw it out. You never know...

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

JOHN SAWYER CJS  Word staying at 11.3.8 after the update to 11.3.9, is normal. Not all components of Office get updated during these overall updates. To check if an Office update has been applied, do a Get Info on "Microsoft Component Plugin", that's in the "Office" folder inside the Office application folder--it will show the Office version number.

BLUEJAY3132  Check out the previous poster's comments on other products. His/her problem may lie somewhere other than with Devon. My Macs don't have stability problems with Devon products (Devon Pro Office & Devon Agent), or for that matter with any of my many other programs.

iConiCal
Jul 4 2007

BLUEJAY3132  Found a way to use "a slight (sic) of hand" in System Preferences to display day, date, month, etc. here:

http://paulstamatiou.com/2006/06/11/how-to-display-date-in-os-x-menu-bar/

or Google '"os x" display date'

This trick seems to work fine on 10.4.10.

If the Day displays twice, just put pointer behind "Fri" or "Friday" in Customize Times and backspace to delete it.

If you fix it till it's broke, change region back to your country, then start over.

iConiCal
Jul 3 2007
***..

BLUEJAY3132  iConiCal works as advertised, but:

Wanting to play with various preferences, I invoked iConiCal (iC) with Quicksilver (QS). QS quit; never had that happen before. Tried twice more; same thing. Reset QS to default. QS still exited when I invoked iC through QS.

Set iCal icon back to default. Deleted iConiCal. Now QS is back to its normal self.

Nice try, though. I would like the date displayed on the Mac.

20" CD iMac, 10.4.10. QS and PathFinder auto loaded at login.

Thanks

BLOCKSOFT  Thanks for the feedback - I'll look into the quicksilver issue, although I'm not sure yet if the bug is on my side or their's.

Any other thoughts, please email me, as I don't always check on this site for feedback.

BLOCKSOFT  I have installed a tried QuickSilver on 10.4.10, and it launches iConiCal correctly without quitting. Can you email to see if we can sort something out?

Sounds like the bug may be in your QuickSilver preferences or something similar. Drop me an email so hopefully this can get ironed out for you.
