Apparently I'll have to switch - Version: 2.0.0 Beta, 11/23/2009 01:11PM PST

Although I've used info.xhead for several years, it becomes increasingly apparent that the developer is unable to keep up with the program. It doesn't work with Snow Leopard and the beta is read-only. That pretty much makes it useless now, and despite several e-mails over at least a month and a half about the status, the developer's vow to have the new version out in "a week or two" are clearly a pipe dream. Meanwhile, I'm back to scraps of paper all over my desk with new entries and nowhere to put them. I held off trying Wallet or another competitor because of the hassle of shifting some 200+ entries, but I'm obviously not going to have a choice, and at least they seem reliable.

No real product support for this now useless program - Version: 2.0.0 Beta, 11/18/2009 07:24AM PST

I used this program before Snow Leopard and was quite happy with it. But for some reason it broke under Snow Leopard and the developer is either unable or not very interested in providing a version that works. Don't be fooled by the note about a Beta being available. The beta provides read only access. Which means you are stuck either storing stuff in plain text or switching to another program.Worse yet the developer is either misleading us about the arrival of an update or is unable to meet his own stated schedule for completing it. Even if an update comes out you won't be able to trust it won't break again and then be stuck waiting months, or even indefinitely, for a fix.

great product but xhead software is not on top of it. They do not have a version that is compatible with snow leopard 10.6. Apple released snow leopard in august 2009. It is now November 12, 2009 and still no info.xhead program compatible with snow leopard. At this point their beta version of info.xhead is limited functionality. I am not happy with xhead. they keep telling me it will be out next week but "next week" comes and, comes again and still no compatible version. They are much too slow. I think they are abandoning the program. I am going to switch to another program.
