AIM for Mac 2.0b1 (Mac OS X)
I find it amusing that AIM was an editor pick (fancy blue text) for years, but now it's not even worthy of an editor mention anymore. the fact that not even macupdate or versiontracker support it anymore as BOTH have removed it from editors picks says something in that of itself. AOL should really take a hint and either fix it by completing the feature set to actually be useful or just give it up again like they did before. [alert admin]

VersionTracker Pro 4.5.1 (Mac OS X)
Useless program. Horrible customer service. Takes weeks to answer emails. Program takse about 12 hours to finish scanning only to give you a bunch of invalid version updates (ie telling me that my amsn 0.98 is out of date and that i should install 0.97). App had a nice concept, but clearly developed by morons who don't know that 8 is higher than 7. [alert admin]

Yahoo! Messenger 3.0 beta 2 (Mac OS X)
Yahoo! Messenger Version 3.0 beta 2 (build 65474) Fatal Bugs: 1. Crash when joining a second chat room with a different sub profile than first chatroom while first chat room is still open. 2. Hang when loading an extremely long chat from message archive, app never recovers because for some reason once it finally finishes loading it, then it asks it to refresh, and starts to reload the thing all over again, endlessly. 3. Unable to scroll the list of chatters in chatrooms. no horizontal scroll bar. so only able to view chatters that fit in current window size. Also usernames should always be visible not just a mouse-over. 4. Ignore those not on buddy-list ignores all users in chat since chat follows same privacy behavior of PMs (after all, it's just a chatroom thrown into a PM window) 5. Cannot invite just one person in room to cam, clicking webcam icon invites ENTIRE room to cam. this is a critical critical bug. 6. Webcam connections are less reliable than b1, the bug fixes to reliability made things worse. Constant dropping of cams both viewing and transmitting, it will appear as it's still on but will have dropped connection to server and dropped other part from viewing or you from receiving images...it actually shows up as "user stopped broadcasting" 7. Unable to view a users cam without adding them to buddy-list or if they send an invite. But there is no possible way to request a webcam unless user is on buddy-list. This is a critical bug with chatroom support present. 8. Chat becomes laggy and spikes cpu usage and beach-balls some once history gets very long. It should auto purge old chat data like PC counter part does to avoid same problem. Messenger will be slowed to a crawl after a few hours in chat. Other Bugs 1. Time stamps in chat room don't show properly unless disabled and then re-enabled. 2, App may show wrong avatar on sign-in screen. 3. PM windows and chat windows observe bad horizontal scroll bar behavior from very long hyperlinks. hyperlink doesn't get properly text wrapped to margins of the conversation window and causes horizontal scroll bars to appear. 4. File transfer dialog (embedded in PM) does not clear after file transfer has finished until after a LONG delay. 5 People invited to cam show up on the viewers list but what if more than one person is invited, how to tell which ones are viewing and what ones are not if they are all on list and cam window only says "2 users invited" also when someone is invited it no longer shows number of viewers. UI needs some tweaking on these issues. 6. Buddy-list does not honor address-book entries for MSN Live usernames that are in address-book on yahoo like PC counterpart does. 7. Mac Messenger still erases address book entry for a user added to buddy-list whom an entry already exists for on address-book server. Entry should be updated not overwritten. 8. During heavy internet lag (ISP was having issues, major latency) Yahoo Messenger would take a LOT longer to launch, several bounces on both macs (intel and ppc). Unusual being the lag should affect connecting not app launch(unless app automatically checks for updates during launch?). On same note, app has unpleasant beach-ball when choosing to connect during same lag. App should remain responsive in case you want to cancel or something. Rather than having to force it closed. 9. Text may not wrap when typing a message that exceeds first type line. When this happens you will no longer be able to see your text you are typing. 10. Message archive saves folders for all users encountered in chat, including bots and non friends while you are in room. At time of chat logger empty folders are purged however, but they shouldn't be created in first place if users didn't actually PM. (again, client unable to differentiate PM behavior from Chatroom behavior since Chat is using same conversationview.nib. Also very after clearing spam PMs from bots, the bot folder cannot be deleted from message archive it has to be manually purged from application support\yahoo\message archive directory. 11. Chatroom always displays original roomname you first joined. It will not reflect new room names when you change to different rooms. 12. /join, /think, etc commands not supported in chat but essential for basic function of chat without having to dig through Most requested features: 1. Cam window detached as an option. Buddy-list integration should not be forced. 2. Webcam viewer window statistics, the Sub bar that 2.5.3 had, time of last image received etc. 3. Color fades/effects on OUR typing not just buddies. 4. Ability to disable nicknames/Actual Names in Chatrooms (separate from PMs) [alert admin]

Yahoo! Messenger BugFix 2.0 (Mac OS X)
Make sure to download a fresh copy from messenger.yahoo.com if patch doesn't work. Files can become modified any number of ways and if any part of app comes up a mismatch to what's expected patch aborts. [alert admin]

Yahoo! Messenger 3.0b1r4 (Mac OS X)
There is no difference. r2 r3 and r4 are identical 100%. After doing extensive comparing I found that the ONLY thing changed is r3 changed the license agreement disclaimer when mounting DMG, however it had a mistake in it. it linked to windows messenger EULA page, so r4 fixed the disclaimer to link to mac messenger page instead. But aside from DMG image being modified with a new disclaimer, the actual app itself is a perfect duplicate. Pointless to download or replace your r2 with it since it's still r2 app. [alert admin]

Yahoo! Messenger 3.0b1r4 (Mac OS X)
if you compare everything the only change is the license agreement. so over 1000 users downloaded a new app that is apsolutely the same minus a few minor changes in agreement [alert admin]

Parallels Desktop 2.5 Build 3036.0 (Mac OS X)
The installation guides say to go to webpage and download "Parallels Tools for Boot Camp.exe.exe" from webpage unfortunately it doesn't exist anywhere on their webpage. The reason I never used it until now is simply put. I did not want to have two copies of windows installed on one mac cause parallels wouldn't use boot camp. But now they finally got around to that I was eager to try but i guess I still have to wait longer. [alert admin]

they are lazy and letting apples converts do the work, both quicktime and safari automatically translate 32bit plugins to run in 64 bit apps.

Honestly... kind of frustrating.
actually it was abandoned after 2.5.3 for 3 years in fact it was abandoned and officially discontinued at yahoo. But they reopened the project with the mac market interest increasing and yahoo realizing it was becoming more and more important to not ignore the mac community.

The bug is a result of yahoo messenger. not webkit. webkit merely exposed the bug. http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14091

This product is virtually unusable
The scroll problem is fixed by a patch i released on here. Or you can do it yourself by googling the problem and editing the java file responsible for the bug.

reinstalled, but did you redownload? I'm starting to think that somehow even though r4 still has r2 app, that some of moditification dates are different and patch is actually only working on r4 downloads. :\ Annoying since the app is apsolutely the same.

additional smilies would require hacking and messing with app itself and i haven't patience to do all that. heh. I thought about doing some nib hacking later though. Cleaning up menubar some so it's not so long and killing all my menu extras next to clock on the macs with smaller screens. :)

you make sure you have app version Version 3.0 beta 1r2 (build 18274)? or a clean copy of app? Try redownloading from messenger.yahoo.com and then applying it to a fresh copy of app.

Where's the voice over IP features like the Windows version?
they hired good guys. but they didn't hire enough and they don't provide them with any resources or freedom to make the app right. :\
