Cannot create and account, just comes up with server error time after time after time. |
|
Does not work for me, any new sites just opens to the one I had going before. |
|
As an FTP uploader its fine. However to put iweb in the name is a little disingenuous as it has nothing to do with iWeb. Any FTP uploader on macupdate or elsewhere will do precisely the same function. |
|
Awesome. This has been sooo needed. What would make it totally uber awesome is if it had basic FTP functionality. As this is at the output stage one is still left with having to use say imagewell to upload. One could argue that as imagewell has boarder capability it could do the whole job. |
|
I must be missing something fundemental. All I get is one menu item, 'gimp' with next to no options in it. I tried dragging a JPG onto the app with no luck. The icon looks nice. Macbook, core 2 duo, 10.5.2 |
|
My battery is 10 months, it shows my current capacity as higher than the original capacity. Which was nice. |
|
Lets not get too excited the software is a total pain to use requiring only one click where 5 are needed. |
|
Can I just say this is one of the most awesome pieces of software I have come across. It just works flawlessly and is so intuitive I am surprised apple has not purchased it off you. After a minutes use it did not even occur to me the complexity involved in dragging a document from one screen to the other, I just assumed it would work, and sure enough it did. Thats what good software is all about. Kudos for keeping it free mate. |
|
Um, seems like it could be good, but it offers screen resolutions at the beginning but regardless it only fits in about 20% of my screen, would be a lot beter if it went full screen like it implies it will. A little bit like manic miner back in the day haha. |
|
Haha, god stuff. |
|
Does not work over wireless or digital out. What is that big circle for it just sits there. |
|
The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/LittleSnitch.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update. I tried a couple of times. Oh well. Macbook, running latest OSX. No previous little snitch. |
|
This invoked the opening of stuffit for the first time in over a year, it then sat at preparing and was unable to unstuff. I am sure they are lovely but perhaps take a look at iconfactory and containers. |
|
They should have called this the magical crash machine. |
|
I love this app but would have just two comments. 1. I would like it if it did not try to open the last image since the last launch, sometimes I have deleted it and imagewell seems to take forever to give up. 2. It would be the worlds greatest living app of all time if it could look in iPhoto and Aperture, at the moment i drag images to the desktop and then launch image well. How nice it would be to just have them there to pick. Otherwise love it. |
|
Would probably be fantastic, only I don't see much illusion in a blue question mark. |
|
Does not work through airport express. End of. |
|
Conceptually fine however once installed I clicked on the saver and then options, whereby iTunes opened up and preferences crashed. Back to the drawing board.

seriously though with the cheap prices of printers today and the exceptional quality, why waste your time trying to get really old kit to work? |
|
You my friend are a Prince amongst the commoners! |
|
The ad blocker is appalling if you switch it on it blocks out any pictures in forums and even the little stars next to peoples scores in eBay, basically it just deletes any images. Rubbish. The only thing this programme has going for it, is that it looks nice. Not worth 30 bucks when all others are free, including Opera now. Omniweb is alone in charging for a browser. |
|
I won;t rate it as perhaps they are still working on it. But to me it just looks like a prettier firefox, which I assume its based on. However it does not seem to allow for folders in the bar, this is a serious oversite for me and deal breaker, I should not have to multi click to find my sites, and frankly I cannot get to grips with all this deliceous nonsense, why can't I just drag a preferred site to a folder in the bar like EVERY other browser? On the up side, it looks slick, and looks like an OSX app, where as firefox out of the can looks like crap. I really like the integration of flickr which works really well, but part of me just thinks, I keep on using the free one which plugs right into iPhoto where all my pictures actually reside, this is indeed the problem with all these applications which try to do everything but land up just being a pain. |
|
That is on, on both machines. I also use VNC with no problems. |
|
Error -905 itunes got an error: Remote Access isn't allowed. I followed the instructions to the letter. |
|
If you already have XP installed is there anypoint to downloading this, i.e. any new drivers? I can;t find any info about it anywhere! |
|
Not intel native? You boys like making work for yourselves eh? Tactical error. |
|
I wrote a review already and its gone now, can developers just delete what they don't like?? Any way I played with it for a while and basically you get some blobs on one side and other than that it looks like a standard slightly roughly rendered window, so really I don't understand. Also its pretty clear this is in alpha alpha stage so charging for it is a bit rich. |
|
Um. I don't really understand how this is visual at all, aside from a few blobs on the side it just looks like a slightly rough finder window. Still good luck with it. |
|
Give me a spell checker and give me RSS and I have a keeper, until then its useless to me (Or at least no more useful than Safari.) |
|
Just seems to get more and more kludgy this app, the tool bars are a mess and the widgets work for a while then disintegrate. |
|
Excellent stuff, very playable. If I had to comment, which I do its perhaps make it a tadge easier to get into, the very first bit is like covered in bubbles before you can move your are dead. |
|
Mate this is a mess, I had many errors and pop up boxes telling me stuff that was rubbish and although it appears english is not your first language, it might be best you stick with your first language. Sorry. Nill points. |
|
Am I alone? This versions till does not work in Safari? |
|
Does not recognise Nikon D50 Raw files, so basically does not recognise possibly the largest selling DSLR on the market. I was looking at this and Aperture, Aperture recgnises Nefs, so never mind Capture One. |
|
The simplicity of it is nice. However in the true sense of a screensaver you don't really want a fixed object as it could cause screen burn in. Perhaps you could make the apple shrink and grow, or better still have bite marks taken out the apple until its all gone then it starts again or something. Nice effort though |
|
Whats he toggling thats the bit I don't get? |
|
I just wish they would peel it away from X11 when ever I buckled in the past and put X11 on my mac the whole thing became a dog, I have no idea why and its plenty reason enough why I am steering will clear of this app. One other thing, just because I am interested, X11 seems to be quite old, yet this app is a universal binary, how does this work with X11 and if X11 is not universal, whats the point? |
|
Hi there, when I download MWP files all I get is sound and no picture. Its a great programme though don't get me wrong! |
|
Please please please shoehorn WMP capability into this, I never thought I would say it, but I miss it on my intel iMac. |
|
Umm, it has potential. The main gripe would be that this needs to work a little like front row. The developer needs to see if as a product that would be used across the room. There is so much free space in the middle which could be big text for each song. Getting to a track is not intuitive, you have to start a whole album before getting to a track number = Bad. The search is quite poor, if you start typing for something and make a mistake hitting delete simply gives and alert you have to escape the whole search and start again. The rendering is pretty poor. It has potential, but right now, not great. |
|
So in essence if I wanted to use this on a work computer portably as the description suggests I still have to install something (X11) on the works computer? o in essence its no more portable than going to macupdate at work and downloading Gimp? |
|
I might have missed the point here but its not stylish an ugly 'realplayer' type square appears on the side of it, and the thing takes up a 3rd of my ibook space for a radio tuner! |
|
Well I got it to show up after repairing permissions but it does not do anything, if I set both outputs to soundsticks it continues to play out the digital out. A bit more work to do me thinks. |
|
Does not work which is a real shame as I dearly want it to work. On the first attempted install it said in console that access was denied. I then tried installing for all user, to which I was offered to put my password. I did and still nothing. 2006-03-23 20:42:47.181 SecurityFixer[224] No insecure startup items found!

The application is far to complicated, its a mess. Why can't it be simple? In OS7 you had a macro recorder. Press the record button and it would record anything you did until you stopped recording. Give it a name and a lunch button. Job done. This implementation is a complete mess. Developers need to step back from what there are doing and be honest with themselves. |
|
Crashed three times whilst reading the library so I trashed it. I won't rate it as it has done nothing but crash. |
|
To be frank this is the most useful widget I have seen to date. |
|
I have a couple of issues with front row: in the music section I have around 9000 songs lots of different artists and albums, scrolling though takes a long time, you also have to go A>Z Playlists show up only as the songs, I tried setting a playlist of Artists beginning with A, within itunes you would see them artists and there albums and songs, in front row it goes straight to songs which is useless. If you accidentally page back from selecting and go back, your right back at A! No proper separate monitor support, I have to get up and change the iMac to mirror display, so basically you have to make settings on the computer before using the remote. This renders the programme a half arsed waste of time. |
|
You can make this as fast as you like, its still a crap game. |
|
With respect Mac Update I thought the little blue yingyang meant it was universal, but this is not yet it has the icon. |
|
Romio does not work on intel iMac so this will not work either. Shame |
|
Not working for me on my intel iMac, just sits there saying be patient, a look in the application support shows a file with zero kb. Bummer |
|
Wow a new release from a really really big company and its not universal. Nice one. |
|
Please fix this, it does not work and I am really wanting something to switch audio. I looked at your forum and tried the fix, this does not work, console just says error loading menu extra. |
|
This would be the daddy for me if it could only use OSX built in spell checker for things like blogs and forums and these places. So important to a muppet like me! |
|
This application has become a time bomb waiting to tear down my system at any given moment start up and quiting it is gut wrenchingly scary. For the life of me though I made a setting in this programme which allows it work, no other torrent app works for me. One thing is for certain though its dangerous and it needs to be universal. |
|
I don't actually own an HP but 100 megs for some printing software! Be gods whats all that about? |
|
This download is a mess, within are more images to mount that leads to more mess that you are supposed to do something with and a folder saying OSX that has no contents. It took a while to work out but I got some frameworks put where they should and the game still does not load. All in all for me not worth the effort, I know its free but if you can't make it a simple download and unzip, I fear for the contents of the actual game. |
|
Worked well for a while but when I changed the prefs to zoom in quicker it crashes everytime you attempt anything. I put it back to slow, but after that it was crash crash crash. Fair enough its a beta, but thought I would mention it. I am running a G5 powermac with 1.2 gigs of ram and a pro 9800 mac addition graphics card. shows great promise though. |
