Rental Property Tracker Plus	Aug 10 2009	EVERLAST_34 The only thing uglier than the app is the website. (Version 1.9.8)		0

AppShelf	Apr 14 2009	EVERLAST_34 I really like AppShelf. Although as someone previously mentioned, password protection and a total calculation would be nice. On the negative, when I recently downloaded the latest version I lost all of the app icons for some reason. Because the UI is the main part of this app, this is kinda substantial. (Version 1.5.2)		0

Xtorrent	Feb 16 2009	EVERLAST_34 Sometimes this program works really well. For the times when it doesn't, don't bother emailing the developer. David Watanabe does not care once he has your funds in his account. Google his name. His disregard for his customers is pretty obvious. Save your cash and get some good old fashioned Limewire.

Apple Pages	Feb 2 2009	EVERLAST_34 Anytime I send a file made in Pages 09 to someone who uses MS Word, they always have a problem opening it. I then end up copy / pasting it into a Word doc. Kinda defeats the purpose. Anyone else have this problem? (Version 3.0.3)		0

ST00P!D M0NK3Y Um... save it as a Word document before sending it to them to open with Word. I wouldn't expect them to open a Pages document in Word. Pages docs are meant only for Pages. That's why there's a save as feature to send to other people that don't have a Mac.

ST00P!D M0NK3Y And no... it's not them. You have to save it was a Word document within the save as feature. You cannot open Pages documents with Word.

EASER i Work saves documents as "packages," which is why Word won't recognize the format. I'm not sure of the advantage of doing that, but there must be some logic behind it. At any rate, as others have pointed out, use "save as . . ." to create the format you need.

APPLEDOGX I have had trouble that sometimes the .doc is not appended when exporting word documents. Make sure it appears in the file name for the Windows attachment in the email. Also, Windows users get odd characters appended to the .doc file extension, at least in Pages 08, if the file name contains international characters, such as accents, tildes, etc. I always take them out, then the Windows user usually can open the word document exported with no trouble. Hope this helps you a bit.

LEV @easer: Pages used to save its own native documents as packages. It doesn't any more unless you tell it to (Preferences>General>Save new documents as packages).

It never saved Word .doc exports as packages. It's not possible. If a file is a .doc, it's not a package.

The problem must lies somewhere else.

Delicious Library	Jan 23 2009	EVERLAST_34 For keeping track of all your stuff, I think this app rocks. I'd have trouble paying $40 for it though; I only paid $20 with a coupon code. It's definitely worth $20. The only thing it is missing is an iPhone version. (Version 2.0.7)		+1

Socialite	Dec 1 2008	EVERLAST_34 Ummm,it appears as though 'Pownce' is shutting down as of Dec 15, 2008. Is there something else that will be added in its place? Will more social networking sites be added in general? If so, please consider adding 'Plum'(www.plum.com). If so then you got 15 bucks! (Version 1.0r553)		0

Sticky Windows	Dec 1 2008	EVERLAST_34 Ive been using this app for awhile and I was really surprised at all the negative reviews. Apparatnley it didn't work well for everyone, but for me, I couldn't imagine my mac without it. I use it all the time. I've never had a problem with it and would recommend it highly.

FileMagnet	Jul 30 2008	EVERLAST_34 Positive: All in all, File Magnet works really well. If you want to transfer files to your iPhone, so you can look at them later, then this is definitely worth 5 bucks to you. Negative: Be sure you have wifi setup. This prgram needs a wifi connection to transer the files. Also, if the files are too big (50+ pages) then File Magnet may not be able to load them on your iPhone. (Version 1.0.1)		0

RipIt	Jul 16 2008	EVERLAST_34 Not a bad app. Generaly speaking, it does what it says it will do; get movies from DVD to your mac. The main downfall is the resulting format. The file is trapped as a .dvd file that can only be played in Apple's DVD player. Fine, except for the fact that these files end up being huge! 7GB for one movie? No thanks... (Version 1.0b5)		0

MRELCEE Pardon me, but "duh"

You are ripping a DVD, and storing it on the hard drive. DVD images files are what we call "large".

Nowhere does it say it is converting to another format.

This app does what it says - and it is indeed true that playing a movie from the hard drive takes less power than spinning the optical drive.

RIPIT .dvdmedia "files" are actually just folders that OSX treats specially. If you "ctrl-click" on one, and select "Show Package Contents" you'll see that all of the files from the DVD are there, as you'd expect. As such, .dvdmedia are completely compatible with PCs running Linux or Windows.
