OSOS10  On top of bluetooth problems with mouse and keyboard, the OS keeps forgetting system preferences - I need to reconfigure trackpad preferences between 3 to 10 times a DAY. The crappy OS NEVER goes to sleep by itself - if I forget to put it to sleep good chances that I'll come back to a turned off computer with 0% battery. I am really getting tired of 10.6 and seriously start thinking of upgrading to 7 - and I mean M$ 7 !  
(Version 10.6.1)

OSOS10  The problems are:

1) They shouldn't lunch Parallels even if I clicked on a file which is associated with Windows without asking me first (or at least to give me the opportunity to decide which way I want it)

2) The two small parallel lines are added (without my permission) to different icons on my mac - and it makes no sense that I'll have to track those and choose a different default application in order to reverse this ?

3) Parallels shifts to Coherence mode when I lunch it through clicking on an application which is associated with Windows while I specifically set it to window mode

4) When coming back from coherence to window mode it changes the window size setting.

5) I posted my earlier note after Parallels "lunched" itself 4 times during a two hours meeting and just drove me nuts ...  
(Version 4.0.3844)

OSOS10  While Parallels 4.0 works fine on my MacBook Pro 2.5, it is fairly responsive, works at a reasonable speed, and the connectivity with the MAC is fine too - I JUST HATE THIS PROGRAM. I am a light user of M$ Windows and more than 90% of the time I am not working in parallel. I want to turn Parallels on only when I WANT TO, and I want it ALWAYS in WINDOW mode (NO Coherence mode). However, Parallels knows better, THEY START PARALLELS whenever they decide (there are these two red parallel lines added to some icons - I have no control of that) and BOOM - here comes PARALLELS. MOREOVER - in these case it launches in the awful Coherence mode and a notification “YOU ARE WORKING IN COHERENCE MODE” (no one asks me if I want that - and no one cares what I set in the preferences). Immediately afterwards I am being asked (thanks a lot) if I want to let Windows\Parallels to access my entire HD - which I certainly don’t. Then, when I go back to Window mode - the setting of the window is OF COURSE full screen (and not my default 1024x752). Developers of Parallels - IF I WANTED WINDOWS I would just go and buy a Windows machine. The point is that I don’t want windows, and I use it only when there is a file that doesn’t fit MAC. Remember how OS-X asked us if we want to launch Classic Mode BEFORE booting classic environment (even if we double clicked a classic application of file), that’s the way it should be ! Here take your 1 star as this is what you deserve.  
(Version 4.0.3844)

OSOS10  I finally upgraded from v5.2 to v6.0.3. Indeed the new version is a major improvement. Particularly in the user interface, a vastly improved input/output formats, graphics and more (this is important when accounting for the fact that the set of improvements during the shift from v4.X to 5.X was essentially an empty set). Thus I find Mathematica 6.0.3 working smoothly. The only drawback is that under OS10.5.5, whenever Mathematica is running, my MacBook doesn't sleep and hence my battery is being drained. I hope that this will be fixed soon (before I have to purchase a new one).  
(Version 6.0.3)

OSOS10  This lousy excuse of a backup utility backed up a little test folder I made and wiped out of the rest of the data on the disk (10GB). I doubled checked all the settings - it’s only sleazy iBackup to blame. The only thing to do is to worn you guys from this of low-end product.  
(Version 6.4.1)

OSOS10  Thanks - simple and does what it says ....  
(Version 0.6)

OSOS10  Thanks  
(Version 0.1b)

OSOS10  Why the interval is limited to 120 minutes - I only want to sync the device once or twice a day ?  
(Version 0.1b)

OSOS10  Thanks, this is a bit different from what is written in the download link in the developer site. In any event its not to easy to follow.  
(Version 2.2)

OSOS10  Yep, I agree. Two months ago I purchased Nisus, I find it much easier to use, as stable as Mellel and imports doc file way better than Mellel.  
(Version 2.2)

OSOS10  I just paid for the 2.1.2 update, is this update to 2.2 is included or not. In the 2.1.2 update the file types was chanced and my 2.1 version couldn't open the new files. I certainly don't want to make the same mistake again ....  
(Version 2.2)

OSOS10  Simple to use, good looking interface, no stability problems ... thanks.  
(Version 2007)

OSOS10  Hey you two, the sentence - “Maintenance” simply has no competition ... - is an ironic one, meaning that even if the other maintenance program developers will do their best they won’t be able to reach “Maintenance” doubtful achievements (such as erasing all of my keyboard shortcuts). Capisce ...  
(Version 1.1.0b)

OSOS10  titanium1 - I suppose that you are the developer of "maintenance" and you saw my comment when you uploaded the update for your "program". Now you have the odd notion that I am a competing developer. Let me assure you that I am no developer and that "Maintenance" simply has no competition... However, since you mentioned courtesy, I suggest that as a courtesy for mac users all over the world the right thing to do will be to remove this crap of a "program" from macupdate.  
(Version 1.1.0b)

OSOS10  Used it once, started in "safe boot" mode ran the Maintenance with its default settings and restarted the G4 powerbook. Ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, since then the computer behaves strangely and makes a lot of troubles, particularly with the bluetooth keyboard and mouse (when these are not present bluetooth freezes - its the first time that I had problems with bluetooth and I need to REBOOT the computer to revive it !). On top of that, it removed ALL my keyboard shortcuts (poor me). I strongly recommend you all NOT TO USE THIS CRAP OF A SOFTWARE.  
(Version 1.0.9)

OSOS10  Why pay when you already paid for this feature as a part of your OS ? (look into the "services" and click start speaking).  
(Version 1.2)

OSOS10  A great program. Makes the annoying tasks of organizing references, referring to them from an article, linking them to the corresponding pdf files and urls a pleasure. Thanks ....  
(Version 1.2.9)

OSOS10  Certainly a welcomed program to the MAC environment, I sure hope that more technical programs will follow.  
(Version 1.0)
