QUBEX  Unfortunately, it's incompatible with Snow Leopard. I'm missing my favourite screensaver!

ANONYMOUS  There was a problem with Paypal but it has now been addressed. If anyone still has a problem then please get in touch so I can deal with it.

Thankyou.

QUBEX  Namely is always the first utility I install on any Mac.

Its ease of use is simply incredible. It is designed for a single task and it acquits itself flawlessly.

Brilliant, simply brilliant.

Keyword Manager
Nov 2 2007

QUBEX  Brilliant! It worked for me too.

I'm somewhat ambivalent about relocating all my InputManagers to /Library though - I'm inclined to not trust injectable code further than I can throw it.

Keyword Manager
Oct 26 2007

QUBEX  The latest Apple iLife update + Leopard install has killed Keyword Manager. It no longer appears in iPhoto. Uninstalling/reinistalling doesn't work.

Any idea when it'll be fixed? It has become second nature to me by now, I can't work without it!

Enigma Simulator

QUBEX  This is really very amusing. I particularly enjoy the Steckerbrett (sp?) animation.

Do you expect to create a 'Naval Enigma' version (i.e., a four-rotor Enigma)?

Facebook Exporter for iPhoto
Aug 15 2007

QUBEX  Having this plugin installed blocks the Export feature of the new version of iPhoto (7.0.1). I had to go /Applications/iPhoto/Contents/Plugins (or whatever the path is, can't quite remember now) to remove it manually and restore functionality.

Pity, because I find it really useful.

QUBEX  Weak.

I don't really get why there's a market for an expensive replacement to free iTunes, which incidentally orders of magnitude superior in every respect to this.

It's ugly, lacking features, and barely operable.

Seriously... what's it for? I'm really confused.

I have an acquired taste for all things kitsch.

Keyword Manager
Mar 11 2007
*****

QUBEX  Though I've always been a heavy iPhoto user, and I've always been aware that Keywords are the key to a flexible user experience, I'd always found the default Apple keyword-managing interface to be so clunky as to be basically unusable.

Keyword Manager is a godsend. It's a fantastic piece of software that does exactly what it advertises in the best way possible: easy assignment and visualisation, simple searches and hierarchical arrangement of tags all in a simple, elegant, unobtrusive interface.

It's simply wonderful. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

QUBEX  Please help me uninstall this thing! Since I installed it the only thing Photo Booth and QuickTimePro show is the static CamTwist logo.

It won't go away and if I record or snap a photo I'm just left with the static image.

*....

QUBEX  If I don't have anything nice to say, I usually stay quiet, but in this particular case I couldn't help it.

This is really, really weak.

It's basically a crufty rendition of an iPhone interface that calls various functions on your Mac to "simulate" the phone's functions - for example, by starting up an attached (or built-in) iSight to simulate the Camera or by presenting your contacts from Address Book in the Calendar function (?!).

Charitably I may say it needs more work; honestly I think it's best abandoned and forgotten.

I've given a rating of one star for features because basically it doesn't do anything, two stars for ease of use because the interface doesn't behave as expected, one star for value because it does absolutely nothing worthwhile and two stars for stability - it didn't crash but many buttons merely invoke a "Demo" screen.

QUBEX  Very handy, it may in time evolve into a complete document management solution. So far it helps me keep my virtual-paperwork in order, though I find the importing procedure a little cumbersome.

Keep up the good work!

QuartzClocks
Dec 21 2006

QUBEX  I really don't know what to say without sounding banal, but these clocks are just shockingly beautiful, pure aesthetic joy.

They're "just" clocks, but they're utterly perfect. I almost wish I could reach into the screen and touch them.

QUBEX  It would be nice to be able to perform FFT analysis on the data. That would actually make it fairly useful for, say, figuring out the nature of weird vibrations when driving in your car.

(Yes it sounds odd, but I actually tracked down a bent rear axle by FFTing some accelerometer data once.)

Desksaver Plus

*****

QUBEX  Very nice.

I've used several little applications to set my screensaver as an animated background (in conjunction with SetAlphaValue to create translucent windows for that Windows-pundit 'ooh aah' response).

Having a screensaver on your desktop is very impractical from a usability point of view but it's very impressive. This widget is handier than stand-alone applications and it's always no further than a keypress away.

Runs fine on my system.

Good work!

QUBEX  That's a very unfair thing to say. The developer is investing time and effort into creating a tool that will allow Mac users to use their PSP to the full, and you berate him for charging money for his work?

How about you come to work for me, free? Does that sound like a good arrangement?

Hypocrite.

Apple Security Update
Sep 14 2004

QUBEX  v. 1.0 screwed up my finder (volumes would remain in the sidebar even after they had been ejected) and my sound - sometimes after Sleep my machine would just produce loud static whenever audio was meant to be played.

v. 1.1 seems to have fixed the Finder issue - though it could be that it merely hasn't had the time to manifest itself again, yet. Sound is still broken.

Very, very annoyed and very, very disappointed.
