DAEMON Tools8.2.715

"Daemon Tools" has stopped working since upgrade from version 2.3 to 3.1.x. The app hangs after startup.

I've used the windows version of this, and it is a bloated dog of a thing. Thankfully, the Mac version is simple and does its task well. This is the only app I know of to easily mount cue/flac and cue/ape files. I have my CDs stored as lossless images so this app is great for mounting them. A minor annoyance is the inability to mount anything with an ISRC field in the cue file, and inability to mount cue's with tracks in separate files. A MAJOR annoyance, and the reason I'm contemplating not buying this and dumping it totally, is that it has some highly suspect privacy behaviour. Little Snitch has detected it attempting to open connections to resources.web-search-home.com - what the hell is this?

DAEMON Tools Lite for Mac appears to install files in directories in /usr This may being done in part by DAEMONToolsPrivilegedHelperLoader.app (DAEMONToolsVirtualSCSIBus.kext may also be a factor) and this may also bepart of source of "Helper tool" errors that prevent DAEMON Tools Lite for Mac from working as promised.

Really usefull to mount CUE/FLAC files as real CD.

DAEMON Tool was as good disc image mounter on Windows, until it start to bundle WhenU AD-ware and force users to install the search bar tool. When the Windows 7 was released, the old version of DAEMON Tool was also the source of many crashes on my machine. So I switched to MagicDisk since 2010. On the Mac platform, I don't see it necessary to install such tool. Mac users get no problem with ISO, and you can also handle APE and CUE will with Cog and XLD. Disc images created with other 3rd party clone tool are primarily used for personal backup; they're seldom "released" to public.

ahahahh OMG why in the world a mac user would ever have the need of this? all images mostly are dmg and we can very well handle that as well all other formats around as it has been since os9, plus the majority of all the formats DT offers are winblows and never will come on mac.. then Titanium (maybe all winblows users coming to ac doesnt know, so please instead of dreaming of all s*i*s you have on microsoft try to learn the best you can all possibilities a mac can offer) ... titanium can handle a large variety of images, as cue nrg etc... specificalli for nero you just need to change the extension to .toast as its exactly the same, and the rest is for all the others applications i've seen during these years. So thaks daemon and all others winblows publishers for your interest on mac, but PLEASE if you like mac just buy it, DONT feel in the need to keep your OLD custumers which moved to mac by offering (i mean trying to keep em all anyways) services they dont have anymore, most of times you just need to read the Manual!!! it becomes so boring to see all these win developers making their soft mac friendly... now on 2012, Why you dindn't offer the same many years ago.. when we really were in the need of it??? But maybe its the way it must be, apple anyway now sux, no more macpros, shortly no more system either, just a stupid tablet with a shining interface and so on... Goodbye Macintosh r.i.p my old good friend

Why is that we don't have the option to mount a DMG? That's an image too, when I tried to mount a dog, I got the following error "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer.", I ignored it and its not mounted, but shows up as mounted with just the file path :(. Next when I try to unmount it, I get the following "Unable to eject .dmg. Image is in use by some application. Try quitting applications and press Retry or press 'Eject' to ignore it." The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer. Still can eject it.
