This is a known bug. If you depend on spotlight you are out of luck with OmniOutliner. I am now looking for an alternative. Any suggestions? [alert admin]

Tired of the Safari crash of the day
If Safari is not fixed in 10.5.2 I am going to switch completely to Camino. I already use Camino to visit untrusted sites because it's cookie management is far superior to Safari's. Apple makes it hard to abandon Safari, but I have enjoyed about all I can stand of it. [alert admin]

StuffIt Expander 12.0 (Mac OS X)
I just noticed that there is a new version of WordService. I often intend to try it, but somehow never do. I hit download and when Stuffit came up to decompress it I was informed that there is a new version of Stuffit. Fine. I checked and there are no bad things said about Stuffit v12. I downloaded Stuffit v12 and was delighted to see a .dmg file appear. I tried to install Stuffit v12 and discovered that v 10.0.2 is still working on WordService. In fact it still is as I type.

Adobe Reader 8.0 (Mac OS X)
Adobe Updater wants my password, plug-in won't go quietly ![]()

This is far too intrusive for my taste. I will not upgrade from 8.0 until there is a good reason to do so. One such reason would be that Adobe Updater is reformed. Also, I do not want to view PDFs in a browser window. Why doesn't Adobe make it easy to configure Reader to do what I want? This should not take any of my time and here I am searching the web for information on how to disable Adobe Reader features I don't want. [alert admin]

4.0fc1 is so useless that I downloaded and installed 3.5.3. Big mistake. 3.5.3 now refuses to launch, so I am back to 4.0fc1. [alert admin]

I downloaded and installed v4.0, restarted VersionTracker Pro and it shows v3.5.3 still present with the DL column checked. It most certainly is not around. If I am expected to reboot, that would be a deal breaker. Of what use to me is the the DL column anyway? More noise, less signal IMHO. VersionTracker is supposed to save me time. V 4.0 has cost me time. I wish I had not installed it. I hope that there is an upgrade. [alert admin]

PowerChute is a complete waste of time & space
I am running 10.4.8 and energy saver works fine with my APC Smart UPS. I found the log produced by Powerchute useful. Perhaps APC should separate the logging facility from the portion of Powerchute provided by energy saver.

Does this problem occur with 1.2.4 (the stable version)?
