DONPERREAULT  1Password 3.0 works wonderfully with Snow Leopard. This is just a fantastic application and well worth the money.  
(Version 3.0.0)

DONPERREAULT  Where are the updates? None of his app's been updated lately, yFlicks? Discouraging for a developer with such great potential.  
(Version 1.1.4)

DONPERREAULT  Glims is free, tired of Saft developer charging for every single Safari upgrade. I've paid my fair share of upgrade fee's to the Saft Developer. I've moved on!  
(Version 12.0.2)

DONPERREAULT  Yes, definitely worth the $20.00 for Clarus. I use Bento and don't think you could manage the data in Bento like Clarus does. However, you could do it with FileMaker for $20.00 Clarus is worth it.  
(Version 1.5)

DONPERREAULT  I am thrifty and I do my fair share of complaining about software being expensive, especially software upgrades.

However, 1Password 3.0 is worth every penny Agile charge's for the application!  
(Version 3.0.0.BETA-84)

DONPERREAULT  Just purchased Clarus using onefingerdiscount.com. After using for 10 minutes I have to say it really is a well thought out application for keeping track of your pets medical history. There is a free iPhone application that is very nice also. Very Happy so far! Will give complete review in few days.  
(Version 1.5)

DONPERREAULT  It appears many have switched to the free Glims, myself included. Developer milked us for every dollar and many are fed up. LOVE GLIMS  
(Version 12.0.1)

DONPERREAULT  I commented earlier about how I thought Parallels upgrade price was high.

I just read for "Customers who purchased Parallels Desktop 4 for Mac on or after October 1st, 2009 are eligible for a free upgrade to the new version." That means if you spent $79.95 on Sept 31st, 2009 for Parallels, you would have to fork over another $50.00 to get the upgrade. That is sad!  
(Version 5.0.9220.531002)

DONPERREAULT  When I told SecretBox 2 developers about the problem opening up the SecretBox 2 data, their response was

"try this password : a

it should works

it's a temporary tip until we find the origin of this issue."

I already trashed the application but I am concerned that you can bypass the encryption with the letter a. Haven't tried it but that was their response.  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  Same problem I had.  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  Version 2.0 doesn't work, it won't let me open the Secret files I create upon launching application, therefore I can't add any information to the database. BTW: I tried twice before trashing this application. Sticking with 1Password it still is the best of the bunch.  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  SpamSieve the best email filter/spam application on the market! Couldn't do email without it.  
(Version 2.7.7)

DONPERREAULT  I upgraded to Acorn 2.1 for$19.95 from a bundle. I can't believe people are whining over $19.95, at $19.95 it is a real bargain considering I paid about 4 bucks for version one. The developer has expense's, $19.95 is cheap!

Acorn 2.1 is light years ahead of Acorn 1 with numerous new features. The developer did a superb job of laying out the tools and the new features. I have been using Pixelmator for the past year and have now switched to Acorn 2.1.

Please, do yourself a favor and give Acorn 2 a try!  
(Version 2.1)

DONPERREAULT  The $19.95 upgrade price is a bargain!   
(Version 2.1)

DONPERREAULT  I made a grave error this morning and blamed Carbon Copy Cloner for a problem related to the HFS+ filesystem. I should have contacted the developer before writing my comment.

I then went on to promote SuperDuper as a great backup utility, which it is and went on to dismiss Carbon Copy Cloner as not being as reliable as SuperDuper. However, after the developer spent a good amount of time explaining to me what the problem was I have to retract my comment of Carbon Copy Cloner, it was all wrong.

So in retrospect I really screwed up. I think both Carbon Copy Cloner and SuperDuper work as advertised. You the user can decide which you like best. Personally I like the incremental backup of Carbon Copy Cloner and I think it is faster but will continue to use both as part of my backup ritual.  
(Version 3.3)

DONPERREAULT  Roxio has a terrible upgrade policy. I am done upgrading Roxio products. Popcorn 3 was horrible and know they want me to buy Popcorn 4. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!  
(Version 4.0)

DONPERREAULT  I've been using Mac's since 1989 and over the years I have lost irreplaceable data on multiple occasions. So, I have learned to backup on a regular basis, maybe to the point of over doing it. Besides using my DroboPro I have 2 external drives that I switch out to back up my complete System & data. Been using SuperDuper for years w/o a hitch until a couple of weeks ago I got an error and wasn't in the mood to track it down. So I download Carbon Copy Cloner (it's free) and that worked, well it appeared to work.

Dave from Shirt Pocket contacted me and we worked out the problem. Long story short I switched back to SuperDuper and I have never been happier about my backups. However one of my backup drives was still backed up with CCC and here is were the problem started. I installed some beta software that I can't talk about because of a non disclosure agreement and it messed up my main System drive. I tried reverting my startup drive using the latest backup from CCC and when I reinstalled much of my data was missing. I spent several hours picking files from the DroboPro that CCC had deleted or replaced with older versions. I was totally frustrated, never mind chewing up most of my day.

SuperDuper Rules and don't let anyone tell you different.

Folks, SuperDuper are crackerjack developers who know what they are doing. Stick with SuperDuper you won't be disappointed.

My apologies to Bombich but his software is not reliable in my situation. I'd rather pay $27.00 for software that is going to come through for me when I need it.  
(Version 3.3)

DONPERREAULT  I agree....  
(Version 12.0b4)

DONPERREAULT  Thank you developers, great job, keep up the great work.  
(Version 1.0b21)

DONPERREAULT  I have never heard anything good about this developer. I have notice since he released Xtorrent V2 that most all searches from within Xtorrent V1 produce an error and it is totally useless now, forcing me to upgrade., that is sleazy.

And there is no upgrade feature for Xtorrent v1 customers, very lame! I now believe all the complaints of his customers.

Stay away from this developers software!  
(Version 2.0v83)

DONPERREAULT  Another "Best Of It's Kind" winner. LaunchBar has is the FIRST application I install when do a new install of Mac OS X. It keeps your hands on the keyboard where you want them and saves the user hours of time in small increments.

Keep up the great work at Objective Development!  
(Version 5.0rc4)

DONPERREAULT  Awesome utility, please donate.  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  Three years for this, what a joke!  
(Version 10.0)

DONPERREAULT  iBank is the way to go. Squirrel is very disappointing. Still wish I never purchased it.  
(Version 0.8b1)

DONPERREAULT  Love the ability to edit an webarchives in Together. I edit out advertisements & comments. This is the most feature rich application of its kind and I've tried most all of them.  
(Version 2.2.11)

DONPERREAULT  Syncing issues resolved and working perfectly with the 3.1 update. This is the best application of its kind, I have tried most all of them. Give Wallet another try, you'll be happy you did.  
(Version 3.1)

DONPERREAULT  I purchased this application when it was first released. Yank was supposed to observe what files that were being installed on your computer when you ran an application installer/package so at a later date if you decided to remove the application Yank would delete all associated files for that said application. However, you needed to launch Yank and select the Application installer so Yank could observe where and what files the application installer were installing. Sounds great in theory but unfortunately Yank failed to work most of the time and often would freeze. Because of numerous problems I had with Yank I stopped using it. Haven't heard anything about it since today, when I saw that the developer released version 2.0. I don't know if Yank 2.0 works but I am disappointed that they are charging for this upgrade considering how poorly version 1.0 worked. I wasted my money the first purchase I am not going to do it again!  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  Disappointed with the price but purchased MainMenu anyway. I like the convenience of having to be able to access the features of MainMenu from the menu bar instead of launching Onyx or Cocktail.  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  Delicious Library started as the most innovative and beautiful app of its kind and still remains the best. With the addition of the FREE iPhone app, I couldn't be happier.  
(Version 2.1.1)

DONPERREAULT  I am a long time user of PhoneValet and love it. I have upgraded every major release since version 2, for the usual $39.00. I have to admit I use it for home but I can't find any changes worth the $39.00 upgrade in version 6. Looks exactly like version 4 with a couple new preferences. Really Disappointed!!!!!  
(Version 6.0)

DONPERREAULT  Don't feel bad I did the same.  
(Version 0.7.5)

DONPERREAULT  Maybe you have devices turned off in the sidebar preferences.  
(Version 2.0.1)

DONPERREAULT  I have been using ExpanDrive mostly to access a remote server and absolutely love it. With the new version 2 you now have access to Amazon S3 accounts. I now use it to access my S3 account and absolutely love the convenience. I rarely have to open an FTP application anymore. Once you log into a remote server via ExpanDrive you have full access to that server just as it where an external HD attatched to your computer. You can just drag & drop files from the Finder to the server sitting on your desktop and in Finder window sidebar. Also, all the servers you are connected to show up in the standard Mac Open/Save dialog windows from within any application.

ExpanDrive 2 is a great application that just got a whole lot better. I love it!  
(Version 2.0.1)

DONPERREAULT  Looks promising but this beta crashed my System and had to force reboot. Sticking with Keyboard Maestro for the time being.  
(Version 4.0b2 (64))

DONPERREAULT  I agree with last 3 posts.

Cha-Ching looks great but is unusable. I purchased this software when it first was released with the hope the developers would make Cha-Ching into the next Quicken but that has yet to happen. Development has been super slow and I don't even bother trying the beta's anymore because the previous beta's have been so disappointing. IMO, These guys should give up and move on to a new project.

I have been using iBank 3 since Jan 2008 and it serves me well with my multiple accounts and portfolio's.  
(Version 2.0b94)

DONPERREAULT  I have been using Expandrive for almost a year and rely on it daily. I log into my ftp accounts without having to open a specific application like, Transmit, Flow or Forklift. ExpanDrive 2.0 brings with it Amazon S3 support, thrilling.

ExpanDrive is so simple to use. Each account appears to be just another hard drive on your desktop, you drag & drop files just like you do when moving files via the finder. I uploaded a 3MB file in less than 30 seconds with my 30 Mbps Comcast connection. I did notice that with the larger files ExpanDrive hogs all the power from the cpu and you can't work with the Finder until the upload/download is complete. So, unfortunately with large files over 100MB I recommend using Transmit or another FTP application.   
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  Point taken, I guess I am not loyal. I still believe Tidy Up 2 has a horrible, confusing interface and the upgrade is overpriced, MO.  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  Version 2.0 is more confusing than ever and the interface is horrible. Upgrade is $20.00 from version 1., I think the upgrade is expensive for loyal users of Tidy Up 1. Good thing I don't see the need to upgrade ;)  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  Been using CopyPaste for years. I have tried every copy utility available and always end up back to CopyPaste. My favorite feature is that CopyPaste uses the default Copy & Paste keyboard commands standard on all Mac applications. It's not the prettiest Copy utility but it certainly is the BEST.  
(Version 2.0.5)

DONPERREAULT  Best app of it's kind. However, the auto tag feature is useless. Every time the developer upgrades the Together I try the auto tag feature again and each and every item I import it tags wrong. Other than the auto tag feature, Together is the best!  
(Version 2.2.7)

DONPERREAULT  I disagree with the two previous posts regarding iBank being slow. I have been using iBank 3 since they started the beta early last year and find iBank 3 is not slow at all. I also track 12 different accounts and my portfolio, so I have hundreds of transactions.

I still wish that the developers would provide separate column for Withdrawals and deposits, would make entering data via the keyboard simpler.

Overall iBank 3 is Awesome! And I certainly think that it is the best alternative to Quicken.   
(Version 3.4)

DONPERREAULT  Another great application from Rogue Amoeba and it works as advertised. If you have a Sirius account and listen to Sirius on your computer then Pulsar is the application for you.  
(Version 1.0b2)

DONPERREAULT  I agree with previous comments. Their products are way overpriced.  
(Version 2.2)

DONPERREAULT  Latest beta as disappointing as the previous beta's. It is lacking in so many area's. I am sticking to iBank for now and watching Squirrel as it develops.  
(Version 2.0b7)

DONPERREAULT  The clipboard history is sweet. Still the King of its kind!  
(Version 5.0b5)

DONPERREAULT  I am in agreement with most of the other comments about the pricing. I think LittleSnapper is a great utility but overpriced by $20.00.  
(Version 1.0)

DONPERREAULT  This is just a web browser with added toolbar buttons. I just don't get it, a lot on money for a few tool bar buttons.  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  My apologies to IGG for not updating Macupdate after they responded to my email. I have been using iBank since the beginning of the year and believe that IGG has done a great job at addressing many of iBank 3 problems. iBank 3 is not as feature rich as Quicken but certainly makes a great alternative. I still wishing for separate columns for deposits and withdrawals and a more intuitive way to enter data. Also, the IGG Software updates iBank regularly, unlike Intuit.  
(Version 3.3.1)

DONPERREAULT  The first of its king continues to be the best. Launchbar 5 continues to improve on its superiority!  
(Version 5.0b1)

DONPERREAULT  Awesome job Dustin, I am so happy to be able to have my passwords on my iPhone and this setup is just as I imagined it could be, dead simple. I couldn't get to the iPhone version of Wallet fast enough.

All I can say is Genius! 10 stars for you and your application's.  
(Version 3.0)

DONPERREAULT  I feel this has to do with Clips because when you copy/paste because I prefer to use the standard Copy/ Paste command Keys as opposed to memorizing new keys. CopyPaste Pro use the standard command keys and it just works for me. Some other people may be happy learning new keyboard shortcuts. I was alerting users that I thought there was a better alternative.  
(Version 1.1.3)

DONPERREAULT  What a great job on this update version 5. Well worth the $20.00 upgrade.   
(Version 5.0)

DONPERREAULT  CopyPaste Pro will continue to be my favorite clipboard utility because it use's the standard copy/paste keyboard shortcuts. I select "Command C" to copy and "Command V" to paste, plain & simple. If I need to view previous clips I don't release the "Command" key when I press "Command V" and a list of previous clips pops up in center of window. CopyPaste Pro just works, no need to learn new shortcuts.  
(Version 1.1.1)

DONPERREAULT  This utility works flawlessly and I love it. The Filechute developers have just released a version for the iPhone, I am excited! However, because of Apple's painfully slow acceptance process we will have to wait for download.  
(Version 3.1.2)

DONPERREAULT  Still disappointing but I have 9 months of information in iBank 3. I hate to say it but I wish I stuck with Quicken but to go back it would take days to import and reconcile all the transactions and accounts. Why can't anyone get this right?  
(Version 3.2)

DONPERREAULT  Another failure financial application for OS X that falls short of all the PC financial apps.I had high hopes but now I wished I never purchased this application. The developer does not even update the application. I am sorely disappointed and do not recommend this application.   
(Version 1.1.3)

DONPERREAULT  I used Yojimbo for many months and tried most every app of its type and have found that Together is the best for me. The developer is quick to respond to any questions and continuously updates Together, unlike the developers of Yojimbo. The latest version 2.1.5 is very stable and fast with my 2500 item library. I suggest Together.  
(Version 1.5.1)

DONPERREAULT  WOW, Leopard weighed in @ 7.5GB, by TESLANAUT's software value system Leopard should have been around $5,000.00. What a steal for $129.00.  
(Version 1.0b10)

DONPERREAULT  Skitch has been in BETA for about 18 months. Come'on guys lets release this application ;)  
(Version 1.0b6.2)

DONPERREAULT  Leech, simple and works wonderfully.   
(Version 1.0.1)

DONPERREAULT  I agree, it is difficult to read text typed in all capitals.  
(Version 5.0b2)

DONPERREAULT  I have been using HistoryHound for years, it has worked flawlessly. I have tried HH's competition BrowseBack but it doesn't compare.

So many times I need something and remember that I saw it on the web but of course I can't remember where. So, I jump to HH, enter a word or phrase and HH quickly gives me a list of all the sites that contain the word or phrase according to relevance. HH has saved me many hours searching for old sites I need to visit again.

The developer (St. Clair Software) of HH is awesome, they have great customer support. If you can't find an answer to your question in the forums, he usually answers you within an hour.

Love the company & the products.  
(Version 1.9.5d4)

DONPERREAULT  Not to be confused with a very similar but much more mature application Wallet http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/11313/wallet  
(Version 2.0.1)

DONPERREAULT  Another great feature is you can edit web archives to remove all the crap not related to the information that is important.

The more I use Together the more I realize Together is far better than all the other similar applications and I have tried most all of them.

Keep up the great work...  
(Version 2.1.1)

DONPERREAULT  I love CP Pro but have to admit developer sucks when it comes to customer support. A girl named Hannah helped me resolve my problems.  
(Version 1.0.3)

DONPERREAULT  I have been using MailSteward for well over a year. I tried almost every email archiver available before purchasing the full version of MailSteward and none compare to the features and speed of MailSteward.

Over the past year the developer has updated MailSteward over 20 times, adding features and fixing bugs. He made an error when he promised free upgrades. He is working very hard and doing his best to continue to keep MailSteward current.

Let's continue to reward him for his work so he doesn't abandon MailSteward to work on another application so he can survive.  
(Version 8.0.2)

DONPERREAULT  PLEASE, update iState 2 Application to reflect the changes in iStat Pro Widget. I personally like to be able to see the information you provide with the application at all times w/o having to launch Dashboard. HOW ABOUT iStat 2.1, soon???? :)

Thank You guys, u do great work.  
(Version 2.0)

DONPERREAULT  I had used KM for long time when Michael Kampraph was developing KM. I have used numerous other macro programs in the past few years and have been using iKey for the past year. However, this new version of KM really, really ROCKS! KM's built in web server allows me to launch any one of my numerous macros from my iphone. I can do things that I never expected from a macro program. Many macro utilities seem to not always work. For the past couple weeks I have been putting KM to rigorous testing and it has not failed me yet. The macro capabilities seem endless and the built in server is brilliant. It is freak-in awesome to be able to launch macros from my iphone, from anywhere in the world. I am not affiliated with the developer in anyway, I just think this new version is Brilliant!  
(Version 3.0)

DONPERREAULT  When I transfer files over a couple MB ExpanDrive brings my Finder to a halt. I can tab to other apps and they work but it is a pain. I still am happy with ExpanDrive for small files.  
(Version 1.0.4)

DONPERREAULT  Yes I knew before I purchased that is why I claimed I was the fool.  
(Version 9)

DONPERREAULT  This is great Mac company. I purchased my copy of Forklift through one of those bundle promotions last year. My OLD serial works with the new version of ForkLift, awesome! This is a what I consider to be a major upgrade and the developers didn't charge for the upgrade. Kudo's to Binary Nights for their efforts. Those d*ckwads over at Yazsoft ought take notice. BTW: I didn't purchase the MacHeist bundle but have followed the Yazsoft controversy and have sided with theYazsoft customers.  
(Version 1.5)

DONPERREAULT  I fell for their 9.0 hype and purchased yet ANOTHER upgrade to Toast. Roxio does not appear to appreciate their loyal customers. They continue to charge top dollar for their upgrades. I rarely use Toast, yet I continue to upgrade. So who's the fool? ;)  
(Version 9)

DONPERREAULT  I agree, I would love to change views and launch in single pane view.  
(Version 1.5)

DONPERREAULT  After praising iBank 3 when it was released I have changed my opinion of it. I spent the last few weeks entering all my data in iBank 3. Now I encountering errors trying to reconcile my statements. I sent a message to tech support twice asking to acknowledge receipt of email and I received no response. Guess its back to Quicken and spending hours replicating my data into Quicken. iBank 3.0 had great potential.  
(Version 3.0.1)

DONPERREAULT  I found Dupin to be much more accurate and faster duplicate scanner. Dupin can be found at http://dougscripts.com/itunes/

Along with numerous iTune scripts. Very impressive collection of scripts.  
(Version 2.3)

DONPERREAULT  ExpanDrive provides secure transparently access to your servers. I took if for test drive and purchased immediately.  
(Version 1.01)

DONPERREAULT  UPDATE: Both data cd's ended with Disco stating "Coaster Created". Very disappointed, thats what I get for expecting great software from great hype!  
(Version 1.0.3)

DONPERREAULT  I am thrilled to see the developers have taken an interest in Disco and updated it. Lets hope they continue to support Disco. Maybe, then we will regain our faith in these developers and support their new projects.

Thank You Guys  
(Version 1.0.3)

DONPERREAULT  Interface takes some getting used too. But the price is very high, IMO. Hopefully the developers will be successful.  
(Version 1.0)

DONPERREAULT  I am really pleased with the new features in iBank 3.0. I have finally found a replacement for Quicken and recommend iBank 3 to all Quicken users.  
(Version 3.0)

DONPERREAULT  These guys are two days late for the party.   
(Version 5.0b80204)

DONPERREAULT  Underpowered and Overhyped.  
(Version 1.0.2)

DONPERREAULT  Indispensable application for handling spam. IE: When I went on vacation I neglected to keep my Mail application & SpamSieve running on my Mac at home. Therefore, I was inundated with spam, making it impossible to check my mail with my iphone because I has so much spam.   
(Version 2.6.4)

DONPERREAULT  Very disappointing, don't waste your money. Handbrake is still the best.  
(Version 1.0)

DONPERREAULT  Very useful tagging utility. I found it worthy of purchasing but a bit expensive.  
(Version 1.0.1)

DONPERREAULT  May not be the best user interface but it beats Toast hands down in speed and compatability. Try burning a Video_ts folder that contains empty cells with Toast, the said DVD will stall in your DVD player and be unplayable. With DVD2One you can deactivate the empty cells and burn a DVD that will work with your DVD player. I'd rather burn DVD backups that work and with DVD2One you get backup DVD's that work.  
(Version 2.1.2)

DONPERREAULT  I have been using Transmit for a few years now but upon trying the new web view feature of Fetch have switched to using Fetch for my FTP. Fetch makes it so easy to edit my website with the click of 1 button, it is great. There is a great feature that you can use to put files up for other people, such as coworkers or customers, to download, this works wonderfully for files that are to big for email.

Give it a try you won't be disappointed.  
(Version 5.2)

DONPERREAULT  I have been switching between StickyBrain (SOHONotes) and Yojimbo as my primary file manager for months. Neither of them completely capable of my needs. Yesterday I noticed a mention of EagleFiler on John Gruber's website Daring Fireball. I installed EagleFiler and imported my saved files from SOHO and Yojimbo, spent some time tagging the files and I have to say EagleFiler performs flawlessly. The ability to tag the files with Keywords is necessary for a great File Manager. Both StickyBrain and Yojimbo force the user to use categories for filing which is very limiting.

EagleFiler is awesome, give it a try u won't be disappointed  
(Version 1.0.2)

DONPERREAULT  I have been using Sandvox since the 1st public beta. I am very impressed with the simplicity and speed that Sandvox aides the user in creating a magnificent looking website. IMHO, Sandvox is the best program available today for the beginner trying to create a personal, professional looking website. Sandvox is not just for beginners it allows the professional designer to customize the HTML. Included with Sandvox are many elegant looking templates to set the overall appearance of your website. I highly recommend anyone interested in website development to give Sandvox a try.  
(Version 1.0b14)

DONPERREAULT  What is the purpose of limiting users to 30 minutes of use? I understand you would like users to purchase your product but limiting the user to 30 minute intervals just forces the user to switch to another browser so he can continue browsing. If you had any confidence in your products success you would give the user a fair trial period.  
(Version 1.0b3)
