Microsoft Office 2008 12.1.0 (Mac OS X)

Mac Pilot 2.5.7 (Mac OS X)
Free with Version Tracker Pro?
Mac Pilot is supposed to be free with Version Tracker Pro, but it keeps asking popping up expiration warnings and asking for money. Annoying. [alert admin]

VersionTracker Pro 4.5 (Mac OS X)
This software is junk. Do not buy. After I update my software, it continues to report old version numbers, even after being relaunched, even after the Mac is restarted! A waste of good money. It is also needlessly complex and unintuitive. [alert admin]

Apple Safari 3.0b (Mac OS X)
Installed easily on my MacBook Pro running 10.4.9. Required a restart, after which my old Safari was gone, replaced by the new one. This made me a little nervous, but Apple included an uninstaller, so no big deal. Surfing & clicking around a bit, I can't tell the difference. [alert admin]

PDF Browser Plugin 2.2.3 (Mac OS X)
Much better than Adobe's implementation, and free for personal or educational use! PDFs load fast, scroll smoothly, display beautifully with many options. [alert admin]

Mouse Locator 1.0 (Mac OS X)
Good for 30" Cinema Display lost cursor woes.
I wear glasses & recently bought an Apple 30" Cinema Display. I kept losing track of the mouse cursor on the large screen. For those with aging eyes, it can be frustrating to find the darn thing again. Mouse Locator works perfectly and unobtrusively, flashing a highly visible customizable graphic locator around the cursor when it is first moved after a sitting still for a user-selectable amount of time. In addition, the cursor can be located any time by a user-selectable hot key combination. The perfect complement for this gorgeous display. [alert admin]

Linotype FontExplorer X 1.0fc1 (Mac OS X)
During setup, FontExplorer X asked me if I wanted it to remove all fonts from the System Library that other applications may have installed, but were not supposed to reside there. I said yes, and FontExplorer X immediately removed all of the 435 Fonts from my User Library as well as a bunch of fonts from my Main Library. The System Library was unchanged. Needless to say, I immediately put things back the way they were and trashed this dangerous POS. [alert admin]

Why can't Safari perform like this? I am running Tiger on a G5 Dual 2.7 with 2.5 gigs of RAM, and Safari has constant annoying delays. Camino is really snappy. [alert admin]

Apple Security Update 2005-004 (Mac OS X)
No problems here on a Blue & White!
I applied the update & repaired permissions immediately afterward with no problem. Blue & White G4 600 - was originally a G3 400 - with a ton of 3rd party apps, shareware tweaks, etc. [alert admin]

Apple, this is pitiful!!!!!!!!!!!
It really IS pitiful. Like when I boot a friend's old Pismo from a clone of my Tiger system, in order to run Disk Warrior, and Spotlight takes over for hours as the 400 MHz G3 chugs away indexing. How could Apple overlook something this basic? We need to be able to disable Spotlight at times. What about backup drives, or video drives, where you just want to get to work?

I have used and enjoyed Pastor for a long time, thanks to your work. It's just a little scary when you can't get to your data. I guess I don't understand why the file got disconnected from its application, but I can certainly understand why you wouldn't want Pastor in the recommended list. Sorry for the negative comment.

From Developer's Site: Latest development release (17.03.2006) Pastor 1.7.1rc3 (Pastor171rc3.zip, 1 MB) This version may contain errors. Use it with a copy of your password file only. Installing this version disabled access to my Pastor file. I fixed things by reinstalling both the app and its file from backup.

I am merely reporting what happened.
There was a huge disconnect between what FEX said it was going to do, and what it actually did. Somehow you interpret this to mean I don't know what I am doing?

Apparently you can't read english.
I said FEX destroyed my user folder, leaving my system folder untouched. I wouldn't call that doing what I told it to do.

I took my dual 2.7 in twice for service under warranty. The first time, Apple replaced the proccessors. The beeping was not fixed. The second time, Apple replaced the motherboard & the power supply. The beeping was not fixed. Actually, both techs claimed they couldn't hear the beeping. Why would Apple spend $1600 in parts to attempt to fix an issue they deny even exists? I have given…

I had to restore my iPod after running iFill. This software will cause iTunes to be unable to recognize your iPod. I would not recommend it!

May have caused kernel panic on my system.
I didn't realize I had to save the docks. I assumed it was saving my work automatically. You are probably right about the panic, since DragThing is only an application. I had also installed a driver for the PCI card, a Sonnet Tempo Trio, the same day. Everything is fine now. I will retract my comment on VersionTracker after you get a chance to see the panic.log. Copy of Panic.log follows: Sat…
