NewsTicker CommentaryMore Bugs - Version: 2.36, 4/9/2009 03:12AM PST

h.toelle
As was said in an earlier comment this package does work." well sorta " . I have discovered some actions which will cause it to crash mentioned in a prior comment. But now I have discontinued using this completely now because . One will be just going on and out of left field will come a message " un-expectantly quit ". However a more serious flaw is that two or three times a day my connection to the Net goes completely dead. Once reset all is back to normal and remains that way until "NewsTicker " is brought into action. Conclusion --- not worth the Hassle this time I lost my shareware fee. Perhaps others can put up with this sort of thing, but I shall wait for a more stable package.

NewsTicker CommentaryStill has bugs - Version: 2.36, 4/4/2009 08:04AM PST

This package does work. However the moment one begins to make changes to the behavior of the App it crashes sometimes the changes hold sometimes they do not. In my case I would get a consistent cash when I tried to speed of the ticker. The developer was informed about this in Nov 08 and as I write we are in Apr 09. Hopefully the developer will address this soon. Because now I am wishing I had not paid the fee to register this. My own fault this version was out May 08 here we are 11 months later. He has my money and I get the feeling that I made a unwise buy here.
Hopefully I am wrong.

NewsTicker Commentaryvers. 2.37 crashes - Version: 2.36, 11/28/2008 07:48PM PST

The idea behind this app is great and working quite well under 10.5.5.
I would give this app a 5 star rating if there weren't the crashes when trying to change some settings as ticker animation speed and speech prefs.
As vers. 2.37 is not listed in the Product Version tab I guess the crashes are due to the novelty of this program... nevertheless, worth recommending it.

This version caused an immediate, fatal (black screen) crash when I started it up.

Worked fine until 10.4.1 update. Since then launching NewsTicker will cause a system crash when loading feeds or after a while when hovering on a feed. Anyone else?

Very good, low price....
Exellent is for the teacher, but Newsticker is about on that level.

I honestly never thought I'd use an RSS newsfeed app (oddly enough, I wrote one once). I've looked at a few, but didn't care for them. Then I found this app, and I really like it. Unobtrusive, easy to set up (VERY easy) and extremely well priced.

For all the needy and greedy ones :-D

Version 2.3 of this great little application is out, even though Versiontracker still shows 2.2.8 as latest -- do the version check from within NewsTicker.

Cheers, Tom

Nice app but it could use speeding up in the display. Also the ability to place it anywhere in the display. Almost as good as TickerShock.

NewsTicker Troubleshooting ReportLooks great but still not behind proxy/firewall - Version: 2.25, 11/18/2004 01:20AM PST

Still does not work behind a proxy/firewall with authentification.

NewsTicker will ask for Keychain access at launch, but none of the feeds will load.
