KOBALT I've not had any problems with the previous release, but this release appears to do exactly what is supposed to have been fixed - that is, the progress bars in the app window do not refresh properly. Only when I click on the app (bring it to the front) does it refresh and update the progress bars. Other than that, good start to a great little app that is bound to get better over time!

ADNO Hello, I am working on the compatibility update. Mail internals have changed quite significantly, so it is taking me more time than usual.

ILGAZ I would suggest reading macupdate about new apple updates but sticking with "software update" control panel (check for updates) until this snow leopard dust settles down. That is what will I do with the 2 snow leopard installed macs at this house, at least until I figure what is the position of Quicktime X (framework?application?) like core system parts. Will be a bit waste of bandwidth of course but it seems as only solution. Snow Leopard as it has "pure 64bit" has some special needs like that especially for deep level frameworks like quicktime and itunes (which has dev. drivers). (Version 7.6.4) | |

JSH My Snow Leopard install has Quicktime Player 7.6.3. Do I update this one to 7.6.4 even though it's not Leopard now? (Version 7.6.4) | |

Apple QuickTime | Sep 10 2009 |
ILGAZ If you needed the update, it would appear in software update (run from Apple menu). I think Apple is holding the 7.6.x update for a reason and I don't think they forgot their own new OS. If you run SL "activity monitor", you will see 90% of processes are 64bit, especially Apple ones. The version advertised here is 32bit. As I said, stick with software update if in doubt. (Version 7.6.4) | |

Apple QuickTime | Sep 12 2009 |
HOLYPOLY Version 7.1.4 adds support for iTunes 9. However, it won't show up as an available update in SL, and the standalone installer refuses to run under Snow Leopard, as QT 10 is already installed (which is true). Dig into the .mpg package using "Show Package Content", expanding the Archive.pax.gz file. A new folder labelled "Archive" will show up on the Desktop. Open it, locate the "Applications" folder inside, which contains the Quicktime Player application. Runs fine here under 10.6.1 . (Version 7.6.4) | |

Box Shot 3D | May 11 2009 |
KOBALT The lack of suggestions for similar products (at the time of writing) is a fair indication of this app's uniqueness on the Mac platform. In my business, this app is a heaven-sent - we generate at least 3 to 5 images with it every day and I'd hate to think how much time that would take in Photoshop. Sure, there a few quirks I'd like to see ironed out - like the size change function which doesn't do much for me when we have a wireobound book to do and which stretches the wireo unnaturally instead of creating additional coils - but overall, this is a pretty good product with a *very* responsive developer.

KOBALT There's a big difference between a negative comment and a smiley/growly face point score.

Those comment point scores are simply too vague, meaningless and above all faceless. If it ever came to a vote, I'd vote for removal of those useless point scores - with a big smiley face!

Connects to the all new FontExplorer X Server? Font store can be hidden by user or server admin? Backup functionality? Integrated PDF manual? Quick Install functionality? Is that really worth Euro40 (US$54)? Just contemplating forking over my cash - it's been a good app for me since it arrived and still the least expensive of the three big ones.

Praat | Dec 13 2008 |
OZZPOT If memory serves, they said that it was because it didn't have an ear on it, and suggested it may have been unclear to me that the other object on the icon was an ear. In truth, of course I recognized it was an ear, but; 1) It's a hard thing to work into an icon and keep it attractive. An ear is a pretty ugly, asymmetrical object. Hard to draw and hard to make look nice. They always either look too photo-realistic or too cartoony (both are frowned upon in Apple's interface guidelines). A pair of lips is the opposite; symmetrical, colourful and instinctively attractive to the human eye. It's hard coded into our brains. It's also relatively easy to render lips to any level of realism required, from photo-realistic to almost abstract. 2). I didn't feel the ear was entirely relevant. Perhaps I'm not in a position to say such a thing, but I felt the focus of the app is the study and science of speech. Of course the ear plays it's part - in the normal human perception of that speech, but that's kind of obvious. The main goal of the icon is to get across the function of the application, which is speech (represented by the mouth) analyzed graphically (represented by the sound wave), on a computer display (a common convention of analytical software). To include the ear in the design is unnecessary and only serves to overcomplicate the icon (another no-no in Apple's interface guidelines). Those are my reasons for not including the ear. I don't think I bothered to explain that to them - I have found that the client wants what the client wants. It's hard to change their minds. It's very hard to design something when you don't agree with the design direction. If you don't think it looks good, you never know when you're finished! So, you keep plugging away until it drives you insane. I hate getting into that situation even when I'm being paid, and since I did this one for free I certainly had no incentive to rework it. Here's the link to it anyway for anyone that missed it: http://www.ozzpot.com/icons/ (Version 5.0.43) | |

NameChanger | Sep 30 2008 |
KOBALT Still love this app! One more request, though. Instead of hiding the 'Check all' and other funtions under the 'Options' toolbar button, can we have them as draggable items to add or delete from the toolbar direct? That'll save having to open the separate 'Options' menu to select these very handy functions, making the use of NameChanger even more enjoyable. Five stars - and if and when my suggestion has been incorporated, you'll get six. :) (Version 2.2) | |

KOBALT Okay macsolu, I have installed it and found the hiding bug to be persistent ... BUT when combined with OS10.5.4 I can now at least use this work around: After starting up your Mac, open InDesign -> once open, immediately close it again (ie. don't hit any keyboard shortcuts or do anything at all in ID) -> then re-open ID and cmd+h should now work (it does for me). CAVEAT: should you happen to close ID again and re-open once more for a third time, the cmd+h shortcut ceases to work! (Version 5.0.3) | |

Apple Security Update | Dec 23 2007 |
KOBALT I'd be inclined to agree with you, neonblue2 ... if your statements were correct. But the link provided in the MU page here only leads (after further clicking) to a page that pretty much describes what John mentions and pretty much does not describe everything John reckons it falls short on. Makes me think that John's also followed the link and hence has been disappointed. Alternatively, the link provided through Software Update goes to just the same place leading to too little info. Even if, as you suggest, we cannot necessarily rely on who posts stuff here (although I would think that Apple keeps an eye on their own product update messages, especially somewhere like here at MU), than the link given is clearly an Apple link that leads to less than a whole lot of info about v1.1. In all, there appears to be no further information readily available, just like John suggested in the first place. If you have a link that will give us more, please provide it.

Now whenever I want to move something to the trash, I am advised that it will be deleted immediately, ie I cannot just have it sit there anymore until I am ready to empty the trash. Clearly this means that if I accidentally move anything to the trash now, I have no way of pulling it out anymore. I want to go back to the status I had prior to installing/using 'trash'. How do I go about doing that? (Version 1.0.2) | |

AusPos contains the prefs window to turn off the version checker. Or when the Msg Box comes up say a new version is available click disable. And you can manually check for updates in the menu of the AusPos program. You see the program AusPos is the main one and the one named AusPos Quick Menu is just an extra.

KOBALT great app, used it for years, wouldn't be caught without it, but how's this ... ? according to the dev's description above ... Addresses compatibility issues with Mac OS X 10.4.7" and here i was thinking i had the latest version of osx installed with 10.4.6 ... well, at least i'll be prepared ... :) (Version 3.7.2) | |

MACUPDATE ADMIN It has been stated lately on several reputable Mac-centric websites that the release of version 10.4.7 is imminent. (Version 3.7.2) | |

Why is ths popular (and very good) utility not listed in RED on the Update site, whereas other, mundane apps are? Is there a download-ratio that determines red status? Or do developers-sponsors pay for this feature? It frustrates me as I've come to like Macupdate more than Versiontracker but found this disparity to be annoying. (Version 3.7.2) | |

KOBALT quite like the idea of being able to manilulate the menu bar visibility and i appreciate the dock item, even if others don't - my dock is not so bloated that it worries me to have another item in it this little app is easy to use, easy to configure, easy to uninstall again and let's not forget it's *free* what i would like to see, though, is a feature to make my menu bar completely disappear ... now that'd be real neat! (Version 1.0) | |

KOBALT if this is indeed the 30th birthday gift, it's a pretty poor one ... after all, it's only of use to those relative few who have an intel-based mac ... or did i miss the 'gift' for us users of older macs? (Version 1.0b1) | |

SWORDFISH Apple is not in any way obliged to give a "gift" for their 30th anniversary. If they don't, it's their choice. You can see this as a "gift", but I think they just released it because there were ready to. After all, it's their anniversary, not yours; you should send them a gift :P (Version 1.0b1) | |

SCATTERBRAINE Cry more, really! You're just pissed because you don't have an intel mac! I think this is the greatest Apple have ever done! The boundary is broke! Viva la revolución (Version 1.0b1) | |

KOBALT well we can't fault the dev for trying! as soon as potential issues are raised (see posts below) he spends a sleepless night and fixes the app! great little soft and free to boot - who am i to complain :) (Version 1.2) | |

KOBALT okay, this app and the devs are getting to the point where i actually wouldn't mind paying, say, $10-25 for it ... that's how impressed i am! still glad though it's free :) (Version 1.0.1) | |

KOBALT US$290 for something I can do in Acrobat for free (Advanced > Export all images)? It'd better make a good cup of coffee! (Version 2.0.1) | |

Font Renamer | Feb 1 2006 |
KOBALT hmmm, tried several folders (copies of course!) and this app didn't seem to do anything, even though i'd purposely renamed some of the files within ... each time the progress bar got to the end of the line and stopped there, leaving me to wonder if the app has crashed (as the dev suggests it may at times) or if that is what it looks like when it's 'done' ... interesting idea, but may need a bit more work ... (Version 1.0) | |
