TechTool Pro 4.6.1 (Mac OS X)

No, Update, not Upgrade  

This is an alert to update from v 4.5.x to 4.6.1 for those of us that bought the Ugrade DVD. It is however, seemingly impossible to navigate from the link above - or even by selecting "Update now" from within TTPro - to a place where you can actually download this update. [alert admin]

TimeMachineScheduler 1.0 (Mac OS X)

24 Hour Backups?  

Well that makes no sense. Overnight or or once a day backups would defeat the whole purpose of TM's incremental backup. If you created/downloaded a file then deleted it, only to find days later that you needed it, it wouldn't be there in Time Machine, which is what's supposed to happen. If you want overnight backups, get SuperDuper or CarbonCopyCloner. [alert admin]

SuperDuper! 2.1.4 (Mac OS X)

Super SuperDuper!  

I just want to add my voice to the praise for SuperDuper. I don't know how I managed for all those years without this simple, reliable backup utility. If you are browsing for a backup, and you've stopped by here to investigate, look no further – no kidding.

The developers deserve a Nobel Prize, or sumpin'.

Sticky Windows 2.3 (Mac OS X)

Promising, but...  

I glad this most useful feature in OS 9 is now sort-of available for OS X. If the developer can fix a few things, it will be a System add-on worth the price. Here are some of the bugs/annoyances I have found:

- If you click on a tab, and then mistakenly close it by using the close button, the tab disappears from the Desktop margin. This is very annoying, since most people use the window close button by habit. Re-clicking the tab is not always intuitive. It should be possible to add a setting for this in the Prefs Pane, to allow the user to close a Sticky Window either by clicking the tab, clicking the close button, or both. What I really think is that it should be fixed so that the only way to delete a tab is to physically pull it out of the margin in a cloud of smoke, ala the Dock.



- When you close ANY Finder Window with the close button, whether it's a Sticky Window or not, another random Sticky Window opens. Maybe it's not random. Maybe it's the last Sticky Window opened or something, but it really needs fixing. Example: Open a hard drive or the Trash in a window. When you are finished you close it as normal, with the close button (remember these may not be Sticky Windows), and as soon as you have done that, one of the Sticky Windows opens. This should just be fixed, and not as a Pref setting.



- I just restarted my Mac and found all of the Sticky Windows open in the center of the Desktop, and no tabs in the Desktop margins. Surely as a Startup Item, it should be able to remember that they were in the tab position, and not all open.

Color Schemes 4.0.0 (Mac OS X)

POOR  

VersionTracker, this is poor. You should at least tell us what this software is used for. Web page design? Painting your apartment? What? [alert admin]

Amnesty Widget Browser 0.75b (Mac OS X)

Some problems...  

I normally use only the dictionary and addressbook in Amnesty, but today I tried the Yahoo! Traffic. On the desktop, if you grab the scroll bar and try to scroll down, the whole widget movers down on the screen. It will scroll up that way OK, though. I also tried to have the World Clock on the desktop, but it's 80% transparent, so very hard to see and impossible to see at all if you want to locate it on top of anything else on the desktop. [alert admin]

Extensions disabled  

As near as I can tell, it has always been this way. A new version of Firefox is released, then the add-on developers play catch-up. Many (most) of these add-ons are made by hobbyists, so I guess it's to be expected. I didn't upgrade to 2.0 from 1.5 for many months, until most of my regular extensions were updated as well.

Maybe I'm missing something  

Ummm, maybe you haven't heard about this, but Macs with Intel processors can run Windows now, so..... Also, Firefox is a cross-platform browser.

It Does Not Open  

Yes, it does. It appears in your menu bar - an icon that looks like a crossed wrench and a hammer. Go to the menu and open "Preferences". There, you will be able to "Start MainMenu at login" and then it will be there every time you need it, but you will be asked to authorize before it will do a job for you.

STOL (a paraglider pilot)  

Yes! Winds aloft and maybe coverage expressed as Clear, Scattered, Broken or Overcast would mean more to a pilot.
