1. Manually delete the old passwords that fail from your keychain, log-in again to the site and you should be o.k., should save now.

2. Try Rebuilding your keychain or make one for Interarchy.

Excellent on Macbook pro 1.8/2gb ram. Non-intrusive. I have no problem with the dispersion of the stars it lets me know exactly where my cursor is at any time. I especially like the color change. Hope this is ported to the upcoming 10.5 system. I wish there would be something else to happen on mouse clicks...that would be cool.

Wonderful application in conjunction with Techtool ProtoGo. Loaded on a 2gb flash drive included iDefrag and now I have the best of both world since I don't care fro the optimizer in Techtool, it take far longer than iDefrag. If you don't have Techtool this program alone on a flash drive, with an OS of course, is well worth it. Does what it is written to do.

Tried this program...Loved it.

Tried Amadeus Pro...Love it more. Bought it. You can't really go wrong with this one if all you want to in change pitch and speed. Want to do more well...Figure it out.

Simple Excellent. Completely replaces any number of singular apps. Like Disk Spy. Sadly I did'nt realize it could do so much until I saw it in my system preferences today and forgot it was running my memory meter which I can't do without...Then the light came on when I saw the disk monitor...away went disk spy. Get this if you don't have it. Stable on 10.4.9 update. IT'S FREE.

Well worth the money. So good I trashed my boot camp. This version with release candidate 3 is super fast, opens almost immediately. I am running XP and I haven't found a program yet that would not run. I just love the coherence mode, now I keep parallels running all the time. A MUST HAVE PROGRAM.

I've used both and I am not totally biased for parallels. parallels now has the ability to run Windows apps seamlessly. It was work the extra bucks to get XP Pro sp2. It's much faster and with the exception of total 3d, runs every program I have tried to install. Windows without the windows is the newest version it's really cool...parallels now overlays osx so its virtually invisible, much like corssover, don't take my word for it. go check it out.

Great app for desktop trash. However on macbook pro(intels) there is a serious memory leak. If your computer start running abnormally and you have this app running open your activity monitor and check the memory usage for this app. The virtual memory can reach as high as 1gb and real memory as high as 225mb. that is alot for a utility app. Not recommended for intels until it is updated. All that said - Stability - is the ONLY problem with this app.

Best maintaince program out there...and it free. I've tried MacHelpmate, Onxy and Cocktail. These I consider good...as a back up to MainMenu. MainMenu is faster and cleans deeper than the other. The only utility it doesn't replace for me in Font Finagler. It does clean the font cache, but not a deep clean. I can live with that. Can your Mac live without this program. P.S. Not the developer. JUST LOVE IT.

Do Not use the function: Remove .DS_Store Files... if you have a windows HD. It will wipe the .DS files from the Windows HD, that you didn't know existed and the direve will become corrupt. You may get to work again but it will never be the same so it will be better to start fresh. YUK! TRUST ME ON THIS ONE...EXPERIENCE LEADS THE WAY!!!

P.S. This not the fault of this program it is grreat. The faulty information in Apple not passing on such valuable information. This is still the best Utility for Intel Macs. Would still like for it to inspect font cache and REALLY clean font caches instead of having to use font finagler.

Have program unresponsive since purchase. Most cases won't even start on intel mac. Have completely given up on it but I have found MAX more suitable for my taste, less troublesome. Still, at least give the app. a try...maybe it's just me.

Thanks for the info. One more problem... for some reason fonts seems to corrupt easily with these applications. I have to run font finagler almost every time I use Word. Is there a work around or is it possible this will be addressed in the next update. This reply was very helpful and appreciated.

One would think they would make this intel compatible at least. I am disappointed with this update for that reason.

The problem is your font cache, clear your font cache... Iue Font Finagler or Mac HelpMate this will fix it. You will have to do this maybe once a day if you're lucky. I ahve this problem with a few other programs on my Intel. Good Luck.

I have been using this program for years. I have found it to be very responsive... to and extent. I am using a MacBook Pro and the program has been progressively faster for intel based programming. HOWEVER, it still takes 15 seconds to open my database of 298 entries. For intel you should not see a big delay opening an extensive database but I don't consider my database that extensive. That said, I would not be inclined to use anything else. I STILL LOVE IT. Don't give it one this one just yet.

Great applicaton. I like it better than Onxy simply because of the option to "execute" all the maintaince runs in the auto tab. Onyx does not have this valuable feature. I would rather run this program and be finished than run each routine individually. My choice between Onxy, Cocktail and this Application... You guessed it, Mac Helpmate. Not because it's free unlike Cocktail... because it does the job (Great) FOR FREE.

My single complaint, which is not a big deal for me is: When I tried to set auto execute the program crashed.

That said, this is version 1, think of the future possibilities. Great Job.

Great Program, great price...FREE. My opinion is it more useful than MyNotes and given that it is free...more cost effective. But...that's just me.

Great Great app. does alot for the size. Would be even better if there was also a "delete all" duplicates function in addition to one at a time.

Stability gets 4 for the installer. Hangs on my G4, installed on powerbook without incedent.

UPDATED REVIEW.

Much better than anticipated. Hasn't quit but one...preference issue. Folders can be drag and dropped to preference window for scanning. -.dmg files can be scanned if they are mounted. I wish for a tab that would mount the dmg that is is the preference window.

I strongly reccommend this app for anyone that does alot of searches on disk or saved urls.

Like it alot. Purchased trashx when OSX was launched. liked it too. I can has many more option ans the shredder is faster. The best featuee is it list the number of items in the trash and also in the menu bar. Very cool. I'm excited for the future delevopmet although in my opinion nothing esle is needed. don't know what The price will be so I did not rate that, but I will pay.

Seems to be more stable than any other browser. especially explorer which has become obselote to me. More reliable than safari and faster. great future with a few minor improvements. Still crashes ocassionally. but not like the problems with safari.
