I have given up on iSwipe. Still not Intel ready. Limewire is a much better alternative.

I can't believe it. I tried it several years ago and couldn't get it to work. Apparently things have not changed much.

- but it does fire up, kind of- but then hangs indefinitely (needing force-quit) at every mouse click, just about. Least stable of all the versions. I have had some luck with this app in the past.

I haven't tried iSwipe for sometime, but was one of those who sometimes got it to work so decided to give it a try.

The most recent version available for download, here or directly from the developer's site, says that the version has expired, and to download a more recent version for free, then quits.

A new level of failure.

iSwipe ReviewLadies and Gentlemen, it finally works for me. - Version: 1.7.9, 1/3/2007 11:35PM PST

I am shocked and flabbergasted, but with this version, I finally have downloaded, and, and uploaded! To multiple networks!!! Searches were quick, and found hits on multiple networks. The only glitch was gnutella didn't connect. It hits open-nap, the unsung hero of P2P networks. Edonkey, BT, etc. I only used it for 25 minutes, and it didn't crash. I set some settings, reinstalled the gift engine and restarted for good luck, and it ran. I will continue to use and explore this app. it is doing what I want right now. I have always wanted iswipe to work really bad, and now I do have to thank the developer for this successful release, excellent good show!

I tried uselessly too many versions before.. and each time I see to be not the only one that had no results at all! (better said, ALL the ones that tried it)
And this 'developer' talks of... 'maintenance'????
Out of the reality!

iSwipe ReviewIt just doesn't seem to work - Version: 1.7.8, 11/12/2006 08:13PM PST

It looks like the gift engine used in this version is an old 2.6.x version, current is 2.7.7.
The concept of this software is really good. There has yet to be an all around P2P client, with a <decent> GUI, and all the networks with options to turn some off, for Mac OSX. Poisoned comes close but is getting old in the tooth. MLdonkey is doable with the web interface or Sancho as a GUI, but you have to be a geek to tweek it.
I doubt the developer of iSwipe actually used iSwipe over other options out there for P2P, but someone must be finding this software useful, unless it really is Jokeware. Again, as with previous versions I have failed to successfully download one thing with it.

iSwipe ReviewRidiculous - Version: 1.7.7, 10/15/2006 08:41AM PST

I'm amazed this software is still around. I suppose it's the only user-friendly eDonkey client being maintained, but it's so half-assed it's kind of funny. Some searches give you loads of junk, others give you nothing. You have to search in just one of four categories, but when I just did a Mac software search I got a list of pdfs and wmvs. Sorting gives you the wrong order, where 5 is bigger than 31 and 95 bytes is bigger than 678 MB. I can only run it once at a time on my Intel iMac; if I quit it, I have to restart the computer before it will run again. What's amazing is that someone would work on a piece of software for so many years, yet fail to fix a number of small problems that keep it from being something you actually want to use.

iSwipe Commentary1.7.6 is Pathetically Slow - Version: 1.7.6, 6/23/2006 12:23AM PST

This version is so slow in all its reactions you might think it was dead, except for the spinning beachball. Not only that, it slows up everything else you have running. It is pathetic!
