I cannot even start to rate this app. At first it seems wonderful.. yet I keep running into all types of bugs (I'm on a MacPro, 10.5.2). Bugs range from unresponsive text boxes, flawed text wrapping and many many others. At times I'm saved by my backed up files (not the automated ones since each time a file has gone corrupt on me... the automated backup is as flawed as well obviously) at other times I need to just close my file without saving it, reopen it and things are responsive again.. it gets very tiring and stressful. I really wanted something to replace IndDesign (which I used to replace XPress) I just hope this app gets stable or it can really be a misery in a beautiful disguise.. I cannot imagine I am the only one to have suffered this ?! |

How an amazing app.. that could be the Graal of design has become one useless piece of crap... DO NOT USE.. Or rather use at your own risk.. As most likely you will end up having to redo everything in another stable app at some point along your design after running in all sort of bugs.. and banging your head against the wall.. This app is dead as far as I'm concerned. Not sure how it fares on PC.. but why should I care ?!! Features: 5 stars... Stability: -12 stars |

The developper's site states this: "Leopard differs a lot from the previous operating systems. It appears too much work and commercial not interesting to create a Leopard version of Crm4Mac. We decided to stop development for the moment." When I pay that much for a piece of shareware I expect the people behind it to be serious... Oh Well !!! |

This app would be really great if it remembered which file types I want and do not want it to open... for some reason it keeps on defaulting back to taking ownership of ALL image types... as if the preference box did not work... so for now it's going to the trash as I NEVER want it to open my huge PSD files. If this preference stuff worked as it should I'd love this app. |

The day after.. I discovered FLUX last night... played with it... was amazed.. now I'm beyond amazed.. I'm very glad... Finally a webdesign app that is fairly easy to use.. very WYSIWYG.. AND that I can use in complete conjunction with Dreamweaver.. so move over non-teamplayer bloggers-on-steroids Rapidweaver and hardly ever-touched iWEB... move over sorta-cool-yet-clumsy Freeway... and enter FLUX... and Dreamweaver as its "super plugin" when need be. And Flash and bla bla bla... AS of today I see FLUX as being quite the missing link... Thanks for such a cool and dare I say modern piece of software ! |

It seemed to work so so... stopping the connection midway during an upload.. guess this was due to MacFUSE.. I now installed 0.4 from Google and MacFusion tells me MacFUSE is not installed.. oh well I'll keep using Fire Ftp right within Firefox which kicks booty (I don't know much about all these protocols, I just need basic ftp abilities really :-) |

Do people really care about screensavers anymore ? I guess at that price it means it is geared towards companies distributing ad-type screensavers.. sure I want a company logo flying all over my desktop.. why not a Toaster with wings while you're at it LoL |

What I'd REALLY find useful is a browser that reproduces exactly the way IE functions since our IE for Mac was left as roadkill, that way I could troubleshoot my web pages without having to go to a friend's (nope I haven't got a dual machne just yet). Becuase yes.. most popel on the planet do use IE on P so we must be compliant with it no matter what ! |

I'm back... I'll just tell anyone to be extremely careful before planning to use this... way too many issues with Explorer on PC... so when it is all peachy and sweet on Safari for example.. it is a completely different story with Explorer (PC as it is dead on MAc so we cannot even test it.. nope I ain't got a hybrid machine yet) and we all know 95% of internet users on the planet use Safari... NOT... so think twice ! I'm trashing the plugin.. . I'^ve lloked way stupid in the face of a cleint and this promising plugin has unfortunately brought me trouble and has wasted much of my time.. so I would not recommend it to anyone who needs its pages to fucntion on Explorer on PC..emenaing: everyone basically. |

Does any one have any idea where to find an older version of itunes... I cannot make it work anymore, tried everything I can thing of... trashing prefs and so on... it just won't start (neverending spinning wheel)and I need it to upload songs to my ipods.... I'm truly amazed to have such issues with this soft.. and seeing all the complaints all over the web I'm even more amazed Apple is not reacting.. or maybe the Windows version works like a charm and Apple does not care about Macusers anymore LoL You never know... |

I did delete the : pluginreg.dat as advised on the Mozilla forum.. still no luck, any idea anyone ? I've got the latest MacOS and the latest browsers and the latest Flash plugin... which works fine in all my browsers (DevonAgent, Safari, Shiira, Opera). |

Great today a whole bunch of images in a RW site decided to become tiny for no apparent reason (n changes were made by me on these pages at all.. this is the weirdest part... so bascially I had to redo a whole bunch of pages from scratch as the fie itslef seemed to be corrupted.. by what ? why ? how ? whne ?.. this is way odd and way aggravating !!!!!!!!! I had to let someone know so here it is. I mean when a piece of software give you differentt results depending on "the phase of th moon" you know you've got to move away from it. So I'll say it again if you nedd to make a personal blog.. RW is cute but if you are working for professional clients I would definitely NOT recommend it. |

For a while I was weary of Unsanity's haxies... but then a couple of them in particular are soooooooooo useful(namely this one and FontCard for me) that every once in a while I would re-install them hopring it would work fine and by now I have been using them for many months... never had any trouble I could attribute to them anymore... and like it is said below... this could/should be included in the OS.. that is how useful this is !!!! Whip those menus into shape Masta' ! Whip'em good LoL PS: Unlike a couple of posts below I never lost a shortcut. At least not that I noticed ;-) |

The main issue I have with this product is the lack of stylesheets for typography. I think it could really benefit from paragraph and type styles like any good layout app (look at InDesign, XPress and so on). Sure HTML does not handle font sizes in desktop publishing manner but rather the whole + or - deal... which for a graphic designer is a bit silly. I'm sure RW could use rweal point sizes and then generate the code that is needed. A lot of the times in RW one needs to just take eyeball measurements for "point sizes" and hope his eyes are well calibrated. Then a little + or a little - and we're all set.. I hate working that way !!!! When I say 1 2 points I want 12 points and if I want 8,5 I want 8,5 not + or - !!! So if you're gonna be a wysiwyg kinda product then try to look as much like a true page layout app as possible. |

Ok sure it adds a very useful functionality.. but it is buggy... blocks eat up part of their content if you trust the wysiwyg setup view.. basically what you see is not what you get. You've got to give more space on the sides of the blocks to make sure you are not missing content.. and the blocks end up not appearing similar in different browsers.. namely Safari on OSX and Explorer on Windows. The blocks cannot be locked while working so any "wrong" mouse movement moves them.. when all you wanted to do was edit their content you move the blocks themselves almsot every single time.. sure a little undo will put them back where they were but till I find this aggravating.. so a "lock block position" seems mandatory as far as I'm concerned. All in all RW and all its plugins are very cute but the whole deal feels a bit childish for lack of a better word. Not sure it is a YourHead issue, all this may stem frm the way RW is built.. dunno. Yet RW has no true adversary so I guess one cannot really complain... this whole arena is open to development I guess then. |

God all these apps that do little bits and pieces.. if you need any type of sturdy hub for your files I advise you take a look at DevonThink (comes in different flavors). Sure it is more expensive but 24 here plus 19 there plus another 30 there.. you know how that goes..for what I call incomplete apps that you eventually even forgtet you purchased and that may not get developped next year.. it all adds up.. just save you money instead of jumping onto "fairly cheap" apps that are almost one-trick-poneys (ok 2 or 3 tricks.. so what) and get ONE real product that really empowers you and that is truly well-supported. |

well after more use I stumbled onto many bugs... rendering this interesting app truly annoying.... the jpg compression is really awful (Thank god Fireworks exists). The export does not work the way it is supposed to when you try using imported jpg data (it creates a huge file instead containing all the images instead of linking to external files).... well Buggy it's its midle name. I'm annoyed, can you tell?!? |

I will not go for software that needs to be licenced separetely for each computer (and paid for... obviously.. no matter whether it's $10 or $1000.. I own it, I do as I please with it !!!!!!!!). I paid once and wanted to use it on my laptop now and need to re-purchase it !! I THINK NOT ! ONE WORD: MAX (WORKS FINE, IS LESS CUTE... SO WHAT). On top of that this does not recognize AIFF files generated from Ableton Live ! I inquired, never got a response. You want me to pay each licence, you answer quickly, simple as that LOL |

Finally I realize this thing always ends up bringing my system to a grinding halt, be it after 30mn or 3 hrs, so it is going to the trash even though I purchased it. A good idea but not usable in a real work environment as it is. I used it for a few months, hoping the cause of thses nightmarish halts was smthg esle but nope... it is indeed PF. The only think I really liked and will mis is the tabs... guess Apple will make a Finder with tabs soon... they should, then we won't need no Finder replacement. |

I keep hearing people raving (well no not hearing... I know noone who uses it personally; I read about it) which is why I'm as curious as the next guy. Anyway up to this version I could hardly be certain I'd be able to launch it twice in a row, it seemed extremely fickle to say the least. Then now this version launches fine but the interface is so slow to repsond to any clicks, no beyonfd slow... I cannot imagine why ?!? I've got a good G4 1.33 Ghz, 768 of RAM. What king of machine does one need to run this thing ??? Or is the Mac OS badly supported ? And all the ravers are on Linux ? I've tried many 3D apps, but I'll stick to my paying faves: Carrara and Cinema 4D. I lauch : they obey my commands LOL |

People who own/work with InDesign usually have background training, can make templates and such pretty quickly, and.. at least speaking for myself would not fork over $20.- for this... I mean that is basic imposition that is not worth a penny to me. |

I soooooooooooooo love this. Next best thing until I can just actually think: "open this or that menu". In conjunction with my pen tablet it is great: I just assigned the app itself to a button and voilˆ :-) Next I was hoping to find something to hide the menubar altogether... (used to have this under OS9) way back... in my search I stumbled onto the elusive "Barmaid" ... they all know what she looks like but nobody "did" her, and baretender her male friend gets you nowhere either LOL Well anyway DŽjˆMenu is reeeeeaaaaaaaaaalllllllly PRACTICAL ! |

Same thought as 2 posts below: TOO RESTRICTED TO EVALUATE. AND IT'S NOT LIKE IT COSTS 10 BUCKS SO I WANNA KNOW WHAT I'M DEALING WITH. Plus no update for a long time.... Meanwhile "SWf 2 flash converter version .azillion" works more or less well, depending on files, I guess any decompiler/can openers will fault at some level but they can be helpful without opening every can. http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/19576 |

This used to be THE.., er "Graphic Converter" (yeah u know was around way back in the cave age) of the URL world. But sadly it has sort of taken a sabbatical smthg or other. I wish it'd come back, add support for DEVONAgent (my new find :-))) and NOT touch Unsanity's Haxies with a ten-foot pole for the little extramenu trick. Revamp the interface a tad and return to the spotlight where it should always have remained !!!!!!!! Hello wake up developper... You can return at numero UNO. |

That's it MasterCard, out of my pocket !! This is as of now my SUPERFAST browser (dunno if its just me but this thing is on steroids: move over Firefox and other Safaris.. it even has the cute Shiira drawers/window-moving-back-to-place-when-you-close-type-deal). I played with it and DEVONThink and am wondering where my head was at that it took me so long to discover these browsing/cataloguing/searching-"urchin" (yeah cool icons toooo) tools.
