Mailplane
Jul 2 2009

JAZZYGUY  I tried it and found it to be a totally unnecessary expenditure of $24.95. In addition the uninstall feature failed to remove the app or the folder in ~/library/application support.Why bother when Gmail really is quite a sufficient unit on its own?

Mailplane
Jul 9 2009

HMURCHISON  I guess that's for each person to decide regarding the value they place on Mailplane. I tend to prefer working "outside" of a browser and having native app controls. $25 dollars to "ehance" a free tool like Gmail sounds expensive but for me I'll likely purchase the family pack for $15 more that gives me Mailplane on up to 5 Macs for $40. That's 8 bucks a computer and a different value prop. Plus I think that the developer is going to be able to link Mailplane up with more apps like he's done with Omnifocus.

JAZZYGUY  Don't know what happened but everything works perfectly now! I double click on a station and wait and after a while the station comes on and I can pause it and move to another sttion and pause that one as well. I am enjoying the sound of Greek music and this is a great way to enjoy the music that Greece is listening to. Thanks for a great free application.

HALEAKALARI  rasputin wasn't such a bad guy. you don't seem to understand that "god" is just a concept. ascetics, "mystics" and even some clergy-folk, they KNOW this, as for most other people out there, they think "god" is some sort of sentient entity. it's really just another way of saying "there is an ever-present, ongoing, intricate pattern of creation, destruction and reconstitution which provides basic sustenance for all. we are all bound together by, subject to, and part of, a greater whole. we all end up in the same place. feeding the earth, feeding the cattle. thus in a sense, entering a state of entropic merging with this whole." out of the void, comes life and death. there are a hundred different ways to say it.

unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), it is part of the human condition to take sides, to form groups and irrational explanations for things we don't understand. the downside of this, is a perpetual state of conflict and disagreement, the upside is, it prevents humanity *as a whole* from becoming homogenized automatons... if you can see past the veil, that is.

i also love that macupdate can become a forum for just about any topic. everything is about money... yes. because we live in a world where everything is about money. religious organizations and orders (mostly just those which proselytize) must function as business entities, to an extent, in order to survive. it's the same with music, visual art, written art, food production etc... you may not like it and i definitely hate it, but it doesn't seem that this will change any time soon. /rant

I am not sure I like this GUI as it is more than a little confusing. For exampleI used the search box to search for Saturn and what I got was the horizon and nothing of Saturn that I could find I zoomed in and out with my mouse but found nothing of Saturn.I am loath to rate it at this point as I am not familiar with it as the previous versions.

JAZZYGUY  This version ran so very slow on my G5 that I had to go back to the old version. Although theold verion wasn't too fast it played well and this version crawls along on the G5. I have 6GB of RAM and a dual 2.0 Processor and I have no problems with my apps. I suspect that the users with Intel Processors will have better luck with this version.

For example zoom is no longer available in this browser by using Commandand+. That is just one instance of this browser being more a Windows thing than anything else. I have watched its progress over the years on the Mac and I am in a state of ennui and total boredom with its widgets and gadgets.

Go to the root of your hard drive and open library and open the internet plug ins folder and delete it. If you want to keep Concierge then you must not upgrade. I decided to upgrade and use Glims which enhances Safari a freat deal. Still there is nothing like Concierge with its scratchpad and great looks.

You're correct; it's necessary to "uninstall" the Camino plugin under 1Password's Browser preferences tab to fully disable it. Forgot I'd done that after Camino 1.6.1 eventually refused to launch with it enabled even though it had previous worked for awhile.

Is this some way to censor web sites based on some criteria that is decided by some individuals that have decided that the web site(s) they have visited were in some way in conflict with their own ideas of what should or should not be there? Is this some attempt to curtail the free internet? If this is so then maybe the next step is as Leonard Cohen aptly stated in his song "Everybody Knows" a meter will be installed on our beds.Perhaps when someone comes across a web site that is in conflict with their morals they ought to just skip over it.{Just as there is a power button on our TVs...one doesn't have to view something that is in poor taste according to their own taste but to impose their taste on others that in my humble opinion is wrong.

BOBALOB  It's not an assault on the free internet at all!

The purpose of this software is for people who want to try and give up pornography - obviously not everyone wants to do this, but some people (i.e. Christians) may feel it's wrong but still have an addiction to it.

The software logs what you visit, and then can send the results to a trusted friend of yours. It gives you a purpose and challenge to stay free of pornography and break the addiction.

You don't HAVE to install it at all - for those who want to try and give up porn, it is a useful tool.

Yes of course your strength should come from the Lord, but I don't see the harm in taking extra measures also to try and help fight the sin. I've been a Christian (well at least believing in God) for a long while and I've struggled with pornography. I went to a Christian festival recently, and I decided to kick the addiction and the pastor recommended I install blocking and accountability software to help.

I don't see the harm. Anyway, I don't think this is the place for a deep moral debate! ;)

JAZZYGUY  Nope! I am correct in my review and comment. Someone looking up a film will see a percentage and if it is low will figure that the film is a loser immediately. I don't feel that this type of "rating" gives the work of numerous artists a "fair shake". I personally don't put much stock in an aggregate of "pundits" and "mavins" I like to make up my own mind. There are those who will look at the percentage and if it is low will go no further and pass the film up. The film may in fact be one that appeals to their personal preferences and tastes.

JAZZYGUY  It would be great if it worked...BUT it doesn't! I tried two Movie Titles.It searched them and I selected the correct title on both. One showed "98% the other 38%" Is this supposed to be the rating? Producers invest Millions on a film and this "critic" with one swipe of the pen gives it 38%!I really expected a mini review what I got was a percentage. I think I'll give this app 20%.

FROSTY  Dear Jazzguy,

I think you misunderstand what rottentomatoes is all about. You should go to rottentomatoes.com and check it out, it'll help you understand why there isn't a mini-review here. The percentage number given is actually a compilation of all the reviews they have (whether they are rotten or not). Do your homework before you give a negative review.

Cheers.

JAZZYGUY  Nope! I am correct in my review and comment. Someone looking up a film will see a percentage and if it is low will figure that the film is a loser immediately. I don't feel that this type of "rating" gives the work of numerous artists a "fair shake". I personally don't put much stock in an aggregate of "pundits" and "mavins" I like to make up my own mind. There are those who will look at the percentage and if it is low will go no further and pass the film up. The film may in fact be one that appeals to their personal preferences and tastes.

JAZZYGUY  Are You Using Leopard? I can't open any of the feed articles or get a response from Dave Watanabe just like anyone else who needed support. Take a look at Versiontracker and the comments there.

JAZZYGUY  NewsFire doesn't run on 10.5 You can not open any of the articles that are listed in any of the feeds. Writing to the developer produces nothing. I feel that after supporting this application from its inception I should get some information from the developer as to what his plans are for an update. I feel that after reading other comments about Dave that it would appear that he doesn't give a Tinker's Dam about his customers. Consequently we should reciprocate by shrinking his wallet. Maybe if enough of us don't buy this product he will pay some attention to those who support his product.

MACUPDATE ADMIN  You're right, from where I am in Mexico (have excellent DSL service and generally get 200+ KBps download speeds), this file is downloading at less than 28k dialup speed: 1.2 KBps. Really pathetic.

JAZZYGUY  You are correct. I was wrong. I then installed Mame OSX and your app did its thing properly. However, I could not import my ROMS with Mame OSX or with your library app had to trash both apps. There was a long list of ROMS in Mame OSX but no way to use them or import or install them.

JAZZYGUY  I'm looking forward to using this app but I am wondering if it is going to function. On launch it could not find my MacMame app and wanted to know if I would like to locate it. I did in the Application folder where all my apps are located. It then began collecting data from my MacMame application. It has been doing so for the past hour and there appears to be no end in sight. I don't know whether to force quit or continue on as I can't stay up all night waiting for it to finish. I am wondering if the collection of data is working but I would tink that if it isn't I would get an error message...none appears yet it is running on and on with no end in sight.

MACUPDATE ADMIN  It clearly states in the 'Requirements' that this software (MAME Library) is for MAME OS X, not MacMAME. So, of course it does not work with MacMAME.

MACUPDATE ADMIN  Hey, it is not 'my' nor 'our' app. I work for MacUpdate, hence I am 'MacUpdate Admin'. The app 'MAME Library' is the work of its developer.

JOHNNIE WALKER  jazzyguy: The import function isn't for importing games, it's for importing user info about games & collections. This is the same as iTunes' import functions.

What you need to do is:

a) Download MAME OS X, then open the MAME Library preferences & tell MAME Library where MAME OS X is.

b) Again in the MAME Library preferences, tell MAME Library where your ROMs folder is located.

c) Choose the 'File < Update Games from MAME OS X'.

MAME Library will be able to you a list of the available games, and let you launch those games.

JAZZYGUY  I bought NNW right away as soon as it was originally released. However,as fine as it now is ENSEMBLE 2.0 which is free beats it by miles. Incredibly fast with its own browser and a combined view of 4 panes it handles RSS and Atom very quicly and is far classier and made for MAC! Try it!

JAZZYGUY  This is NOT an application that can simply be placed in your applications folder and then launch it and configure it for your pop mail account in mail.app First you have to install the developer tools and then use Terminal to go through all kinds of permutations and commands. This app is for the users who know how to use Unix and are one of the brave and fearless. Unfortunately I am not one of them although I have dabbled with Fink and X11 I am depite all my years of experience with my Macs an ingenue and dilittente nevertheless. More power to those who can use this!

JAZZYGUY  Thanks to the guy that said use BwanaDick! It works great and I put it on all my Macs! I once went for one of AlphaOmega's "apps" if you can call them that. It was a translator app and it was TERRIBLE! BwanaDick does the job and does it with CLASS! Why spend good money on junk like this when Freeware that does the job better is available.
