It's the latter. You see, Apple prohibits software in the Mac App Store to run system maintenance tasks such as cleaning the system cache.
MainMenu standard edition was designed for those users that prefer to buy software via the Mac App Store and that don't need the system maintenance tasks.
Unfortunately, this means that MainMenu Pro will not be available on the App Store.

One major problem though: When ‘Show Invisible Files’ is selected, any open Finder windows are closed! Why? That’s really annoying, as I must then re-open everything that was summarily nuked by MainMenu — effectively negating the convenience of the app (and then some, especially if I had a lot of Finder windows open when it was run)!

Since my rating was kinda harsh before I will re-rate this with 3 stars because I did like it and it works well for what the developer intended, but alas it is not for me.

all other options on offer but the 'Maintenance Scripts' and arrow head is greyed out, and unable to be invoked. All other options are ok
If I want to run the scripts, I have to kill and restart Main Menu. Other utilities (Cocktail, Onyx etc) are all able to run the scripts, so is hard for me to see why...
any ideas out there?
thanks

Hopefully will have to time put out a proper update for 10.5
thanks
Then the update to 10.4.9 broke it not very happy!!!
So I hunt around looking for an update!!
v1.7.1 says it works with 10.4.9 but I downloaded it from this page and it still comes up with the compatibility error?!?!?
What an I doing wrong please help
Thank you in advanced
Tim
Thank you

HTH.
Thank you

I suppose you could try doing a 'fresh' install. Go into System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items and delete it from your list. Then delete com.santasw.MainMenu.plist from ~/Library/Preferences/. Then delete the MainMenu.app from Applications then restart.
After restart, install MainMenu.app again into your Apps folder and launch. Any joy?
When the dev will fix it? :)

Hopefully we'll see an update soon and some 8 processor Mac Pros.

1.7.1 released with 10.4.9 compat. (in case you have email reminders set for your post)
Thanks for being patient :)

We've informed the developer a couple of times that we will host his download so that he can save his money and the download will always be available via MacUpdate, but he declined.

Regarding the MU mirror, perhaps it could be included as an alternate link on this page, for when the site is down?

Thanks!

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.

Will definitely add font cache inspection in the near future. ;-)
Thanks for the suggestion!

Developer
However, I am having trouble getting it to launch on login, like, say, Himmel Bar or Butler. Although I have selected the "Start MainMenu at login" and the "Authorize at launch" options in the preferences, I still have to manually relaunch everytime I restart.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Other than that, an excellent little utility all the way around.
