KUPHD  a lot of clip-art is in wmf. not just that from microsoft, but many 3rd party clip-art comes in wmf.

wmf is also vector-based...like illustrator eps files. that means you can enlarge, reduce it without having to worry about pixelation.

i've never tried this app, but if you can export wmf files back into vector-based files that are more universal (i.e., eps), that would be good. you can use adobe illustrator to do this, but the difference in price between this app and illustrator is huge.

KUPHD  why not just use Carbon Copy Cloner? it's free.

KUPHD  1.6.6b3 doesn't seem to work at all. I have a Logitech PC keyboard which, without DoubleCommand, has the Option key functioning as the Command key. I've been using DoubleCommand to swap the Option and Command keys. With 1.6.6b3, none of the settings stick. However, going back to 1.6.6b1 makes it work again.

KUPHD  There has been something I've been wondering for quite a while. When I pull up the contextual menu and browse my OS X System drive, I still see the invisible folders etc, home, net, tmp and var. Those don't show up when I actually open the drive, but they always have in the FolderGlance menu. I've got the "Files to include in menus:" setting set to "Only visible files" and I don't see anything else discussing that.

Can someone tell me what (if anything) I'm missing or is this normal?

Thanks in advance.

KUPHD  The disparity between Vista and XP comes with the fact that they are two completely different operating systems. As far as the drivers go, you're going through the same thing the vast majority of PC users are going through. Vista is just not ready for prime time. That's why I never upgrade a Microsoft operating system until at least the first Service Pack. The Windows OS is always extremely buggy and nothing works with it in its initial release. Don't blame Apple. Blame Microsoft for putting out shoddy software.

KUPHD  Sharepoints does exactly the same thing just as easily for $19.95 less. That would be $0. Why re-invent the wheel on this one?  
(Version 1.0.2)

KUPHD  it probably crashed because your cache file(s) got too big from not saving periodically. has nothing to do with the app itself.

KUPHD  what conflicts are you talking about with Fruitmenu? i've got just about everything under the sun on my Mini with Fruitmenu installed. no problems here. maybe you need to update your other software.

KUPHD  spoke too soon. it's not working. shows up properly in the pref pane, but i still have the same, boring, old beachball in the system.

thanks Unsanity!

KUPHD  Bruce & olto,

Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately, neither worked. Bruce, on your first option, couldn't do that one. I can't get Entourage to launch at all, so I can't get to the prefs.

Anyway, I appreciate you taking the time to help me out with this. The only thing I can think of that happened was sometime during the update, it hosed Entourage. Every other apps appears to be fine, but Entourage is toast...even after reinstalling it.

Thanks again.  
(Version 2006-007)

KUPHD  all office 2004 updates applied. guess i'll have to try to reinstall entourage. it was working fine before the update. now it just bounces a couple times and dies. no "unexpectedly quit" errors or anything. just stops.  
(Version 2006-007)

KUPHD  has anyone else noticed this breaking Microsoft Entourage? and if so, do you know how to fix it? all other Office apps open fine after this update. only Entourage seems to be affected. i'm on an Intel Core Duo Mac Mini.

Thanks.  
(Version 2006-007)

KUPHD  Here's what Deep Freeze does: Every time your computer is rebooted, it reverts back to its original state (set when you set up the app). Everything done after that original setup gets deleted (settings, files, etc.).

So, if you're a home user, you do NOT want this on your computer. If you're working in a lab, you do NOT want this on your computer.

An example of when you DO want this is if you're in a library (or some other place where people walk in off the street to use computers). When they log out, the computer reboots and resets itself...deleting anything they've downloaded, installed or changed. It basically removes the problem of security (i.e., someone who leaves their resume file on the Desktop). No one who uses the computer after them will be able to see their personal information.

In short, this app can be very handy, but in very limited situations.

KUPHD  what is going on with Mighty Mouse? Unsanity said on their website on Sept 7th to watch out for an Intel version "in the coming days". still nothing. they shoud've said "the coming months".

come on Unsanity...you've got freeware haxies updated already. we PAID for Mighty Mouse. give it priority.

KUPHD  Flash,

If you sign up for the developer program on Apple.com, you can download Xcode for free. In Xcode, there is the app called PackageMaker for making installers using Apple's Installer app. It's pretty cool. An example of one thing it does a lot better than most installer makers is, if you have a file or set of files that need to go into a specific folder (i.e., /Library/ApplicationSupport), you just set your installation up as though those files are there, drag and drop it in PackageMaker, then build the install package. When you open the new package, Installer.app opens and works like any other install package.

With InstallerMaker or VISE, the installer has to search for those specific locations so you have to run though and set all that up through a much more complicated process. It also makes the install run slower because it has to search the drive(s) for those folders during the install. With Apple's app, it already knows where the file(s) are going and puts them there without searching. If the folder isn't there, it creates it.

I used to use InstallerMaker because I liked it a lot better than VISE. But with PackageMaker, it's so much easier and takes so much less time, there's no way I'm going back to InstallerMaker. Besides, it's free since Xcode is free.

KUPHD  Finally! A cool set of screen savers that work with Intel Macs...and FREE! Thanks for this.  
(Version 5.0)

KUPHD  Okay...thought of a workaround. It's so simple I don't know why I didn't think of it. Here goes.

Because APE only crashes PPC apps in Rosetta, just add those PPC apps to APE's Master Exclude List. None of the haxies are available in those apps, but at least they don't crash all the time. For me, anyway, my main use of the haxies comes in the Finder anyway, so it's no big deal.

Hope this helps others in my type of situation.  
(Version 2.0.1)

KUPHD  APE crashes Rosetta (PPC) apps under 10.4.7 on Intel Macs. Reported the bug to Unsanity, but no fix yet. Until that's fixed, I can't run any Unsanity haxies since they all require APE.  
(Version 2.4)

KUPHD  Can you open PreferencePanes by typing them into Spotlight? Can you go directly to something without having to type anything with Spotlight? Can you customize Spotlight? Didn't think so.

Besides, Spotlight is so freakin' slow it's not funny. You've got to sit and wait for it to search your entire hard drive (or hard drives as the case may be) and then, because it truncates the search, you may or may not see what you're looking for until you hit "Show All..." five billion items.

With Fruitmenu, you set a custom folder created from...oh...let's say...the Volumes folder. Then you've got access to every drive with every file, with every app, with every folder connected to your Mac. If you organize your stuff, it's easy to find and you don't have to wait or type a darn thing.

Of course, if you don't organize your stuff, Spotlight probably would be the way to go. But, then again, if you're not organized, you're just wasting time.  
(Version 3.6.1)

KUPHD  Seems to crash PowerPC apps running in Rosetta on Intel Macs under OS X 10.4.7. Can't use any of my Unsanity stuff 'til that's fixed.  
(Version 2.0.1)

KUPHD  Comfirmed NOT working on Intel Mac Mini with either OS X 10.4.6 or 10.4.7.  
(Version 2.3.8)

KUPHD  I'm not sure exactly what's going on with the Intel version of this update, but it breaks every single PowerPC app on my Mini. I get to open an app once, then no other PowerPC app (all Adobe apps, Office, etc.) will launch. If I then quit from the app I opened initially, then try to re-open it, it crashes as well.

Crash logs don't say anything so I'm assuming that whatever is happening has to do with Rosetta since the Universal apps are fine. It only affects the PowerPC apps.

I ended up having to an Archive and Install to bring the OS back to 10.4.6 which has absolutely no problems.

KUPHD  The PDF Printer still doesn't work on Intel Macs. Just freezes the system causing you to have to hard restart.  
(Version 7.0.8)

KUPHD  Not really true. It's only free if you bought it after January 1st, 2005. If you bought it before that, you have to pay 50% for the upgrade.

KUPHD  Amen!

KUPHD  This software works great. I have a Logitech mouse and have tried using Logitech's software with it. Talk about a mess. The cursor is jumpy and lacking in the feature department compared to USB Overdrive. I've been using this software since OS 9 and haven't had any trouble with it.

It's true it could cost a little less, but I'm not going to complain. I've been on the same serial number I purchased 4 years ago. How many other software apps can you say that about?

KUPHD  Pithhelmet is awesome, but i'm wondering if there's any way the developer could rework it so it didn't rely on SIMBL. every time Safari changes, it breaks SIMBL.
