when installing, make sure your old safari is in the applications folder and has not been moved to another location. otherwise, the installer will indicate the the hard disk is not suitable for installation.

v086intel crashes on MBP with error

Library not loaded: @executable_path/lib/vlc_libintl.dylib

Referenced from: /Applications/Video/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC

Reason: image not found

UB works fine

also for some reason on my MBP vlc has hebrew menus, but on MP desktop, it's ok..

incompatible with acidsearch. the main problem is that the search history is poorly preserved (unlike with acidsearch) so i do not see previos searchers even though the corresponding option is checked in prefs. this detracts greatly from the usefulness of this software.

also the dev is rude. here is my exchange with him:

From: David Watanabe

To: Vitaly Citovsky Date: Tue, 31 Oct 2006

Yes, uninstall Acidsearch.

v1.1 works. too bad it does not communicate a bit with the user. for example, if i try to start it when there're no recovered files in trash, simply nothing happens. it would be better if a small dialog box were to appear to say, no files or something..

yes! one can customize the diplay of the time. i did not know at first and apologize for requesting this feature when it was already there..in fact there is a lot of versatlity in this version. still one thing: i am in new york and use aion to show time in jerusalem, israel. i know that the time difference is 7 hours (as of oct 1, when both counries are on light saving time), but aion shows it as only 6 hours diff (GMT+2 instead of GMT+3); so, i had to manually adjust the difference

very nice app. all major bugs fixed. two small things; although get info shows v 161, the about screen in prefs still indicates 16 version. also, is there a way to remove the dash (-) before the time if one wants to hide the name of the city? and, why not make a simple option to hide name of the city in menubar? but overall the developer did a terrific, truly outstanding job.

this is a good release, fast and stable. BUT it should not have been a paid new version. instead, this should have been an update for v8 which is less than a year old and is incredibly buggy. the company seems to produce one major release, charge for it, and make it so full of bugs that the users have no choice but buy the next version

great app. i may be in the minority, but i liked the old icon. is there a way to config its pref to have a choice of either? also, say it is on but not authorized, you clock prefs, it requires auth, you authorize, then instead of going back to prefs or whatever the task you originally chose, it goes to stand-by, that is the task should be clicked again..can it be made to continue with the selected task after authorization? thanks

this is a really major upgrade with more functions, speed and better GUI. some of the functions remain cryptic (sets, etc. could be named better), but overall i love it. and i think it is more versatile than ical, and while the previous version was much uglier and clankier than iCal, this one is more comparable to iCal. and it can import iCal calendars too which is a big plus.

appreciate the effort, but the result is not really good. first, it replaces font size buttons which are very useful. safaributtons (still incompatible with 2.0) added buttons instead, so replacing them does not seem necessary. second, it would not uninstall although it promises to uninstall if run again

now it is perfect. for months it would quit on my mac afet automatic authorization, doing it manually at each start up was too tedious, and opening the app when i needed it (as opposed to being in the menu) made it jusy one of others which have more features and better GUI (onyx, etc.). now it is in the menu and this makes it unique and useful. thanks

i tried several hacks to add print and tab buttons. they all came at the expense of other toolbar buttons, which was onlt barely acceptible. this one, on the other hand, adds buttons, which is perfect. it works flawlessly on my G4 Al PB and G5 2.5 GHz duo under 10.3.8. importantly, the installer restored by bugs button that was gone after i used the previous version (newtabbutton) of this software. and, it is free (i am tired of paying for small, albeit useul, hacks)!

one wish, however, is that the developer somehow connected with the makers of safaricon so that the new buttons could be included in safaricons themes and not stand out on my toolbar (i use the oahu theme)

thank you so much

something similar happens to me: i start it ok, then i quit, it does not restart. interestingly, if i replace the app with a new copy of the same version, it starts again, then does not restart after quit. the developer tild me it was a rare problem with my system configuration, although i replicated it on 2 different machines..the bottom line - this version is unusable to me

i just gave it a test run vs dvdattache that i use routinely and vs dvd manager which i used before dvdattache. dvd manager is the fastest but contains almost zero info om movies. dvdjuggler has a nice interface, but quite a few bugs (cannot delete movie lists, cannot delete movies from lists, only from library, etc.). most importantly, the juggler imports much less info about movies than attache. so even though attache is slow to open and does not have a clean GUI like juggler, i am sticking with it...
