French Byki Express Language Learning 4.0 (Mac OS X)

hang "loading scores" on initial launch  

After downloading the zip file, expanding it and installing from the .pkg file within the .dmg file, I double-clicked the app icon. It asked me for a username, so I created a new one (since it was the first time I'd run the app). I then opened 2 windows, 1 asking me to "pick a list", the other one a dialog saying "loading scores", which showed a dead "progress bar". I was unable to close the "loading scores" window by clicking on the titlebar close-widget. The other window beeped at anything I tried to click on in it. WTF? [alert admin]

zGoogleCalc 1.2 (Mac OS X)

no response from developer to email  

The only email contact supplied for zGoogleCalc is on the developer's website www.dmitrykirillov.com. It says to email mail@dmitrykirillov.com. However, mail sent to this address is rejected with the error message "User Unknown (550)". [alert admin]

stopped working Nov 19, 2008  

It's no longer working. Regardless of what's typed in the input field, clicking the Calculate button no longer produces any result. [alert admin]

SoleLuna 1.2 (Mac OS X)

missing images and javascript file  

I navigated into SoleLuna.wdgt and opened SoleLuna.html in Safari. Safari's Activity window reports "file doesn't exist" for the following: ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/comune_left_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/comune_middle_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/comune_right_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/provincia_left_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/provincia_middle_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/provincia_right_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/regione_left_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/regione_middle_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/Images/regione_right_clicked.png ...SoleLuna.wdgt/localizedStrings.js and indeed they are absent from the contents of SoleLuna.wdgt I file soprascritti mancano alla widget SoleLuna, ecco perche' (forse) non funziona [alert admin]

SoleLuna 1.2 (Mac OS X)

Doesn't work on my MacBook (Intel, Tiger 10.4.11)  

The backside configuration panel is unresponsive except for the "Regione" menu. Therefore I'm unable to choose any other location besides the default of Roma, nor does the "Done" button respond. Nel panello di configurazione sul retro non funziona nessun controllo salve l'elenco delle regioni, non riesco a scegliere una citta` diversa di Roma, neanche cliccare sul pulsante "Done". [alert admin]

uTrekGE 1.2 (Mac OS X)

Doesn't work on my MacBook running Tiger  

I don't understand how to use this app. I've tried using its File->Open... menu to open KML files saved from Google Earth and the resulting utrekGE window shows NOTHING. Clicking on the toolbar icons also does nothing. There's no built-in help and the web page is no help either. [alert admin]

Doodim 1.0 (Mac OS X)

could be more useful...  

Works on Panther (10.3.9). Would be more useful if "Dim" were already activated upon launch and if it didn't dim the Desktop when Finder is the frontmost app. [alert admin]

TimeShift 1.0 (Mac OS X)

good start, needs polish  

Doesn't handle countries whose timezone is not an integer offset from UTC. Some inconsistencies in timezone names: e.g., US West Coast is PST (Pacific Standard Time), but Atlantic Standard Time is indicated as EDT (Eastern Daylight Time). It would be better to allow users to choose their own preferred timezone names via Preferences settings. [alert admin]

XCopy 1.1 (Mac OS X)

try Fugu instead  

Fugu is freeware, does the same thing (scp, sftp) and works great. [alert admin]

Oops, typo: "IT then opened 2 windows", NOT "I then opened 2 windows"

I get it. The product description is misleading. The app doesn't generate elevation graphs from KML tracks. It generates graphs connecting GEarth placemarks saved together in one KML file. As such, it can only be as useful as the density of placemarks YOU add to your tracks. That's not useful for me, as it demands too much manual input.

Best of both worlds ... up to a point  

Selecting an application from the Exclude list puts a checkmark to its left and excludes it from being hidden by Spirited Away. (I agree it's not immediately self-explanatory and documentation would help.)

description seems to be for the non-Lite version  

I don't see anything new for 'flagging' items, nor tabbed browsing in 2.0b3 Lite.
