maintain1 8.7 (Mac OS X)

still 8.4, not 8.7  

The link here and on the developer's site both give you a .dmg file which is labeled version 8.4 pro, not version 8.7 [alert admin]

Timbuktu Pro 8.7 (Mac OS X)

Not opening for me in Leopard  

Not only is the upgrade process really frustrating (I had to go back to my original 2003 email to find the serial and activation numbers, then the upgrade link was incorrect) but it doesn't even open in Leo-pard. It bounces several times in the dock...then it disappears. Hope they fix it soon. [alert admin]

Parallels Desktop 3.0 Build 5060.0 (Mac OS X)

Dead in the water  

Version 2 was great, but version 3 has become bloatware. The last one took forever to load and froze or slowed my 2GB iMac to a crawl, but this one gives me a "memory allocation' error at start up, which is suppoed to be solved by checking a box that will fix it in preferences, but which does absolutely nothing! Rebooting makes nodifference. This is now a brick. [alert admin]

Parallels Desktop 3.0 Build 5060.0 (Mac OS X)

can't even start windows now with this build  

Version 2 was great. Version 3 is bloatware. This new version tells me that Parallels didn't properly load memory allocation, and to check a box in preferences to allow this to happen automatically. Unfortunately, that makes no difference - Parallels is now dead in the water. VMWare Fusion, anyone? Much smaller RAM requirement, too, according to Walt Mossberg. [alert admin]

Worst customer service imaginable  

NO customer service is more like it. And the amount of spam and spyware downloads that they allow is unconscionable. They do NOT reply to emails! They used to be good, but now they aren't worth a nickel. Total POS.

won't install  

Well, yeah. It came with a remote, and the remote lets me control play and pause and volume in iTunes, slideshows in iPhoto, etc. just can't even find front row in my system.

Absolutely impossible to download  

Previous sugestion was togo the developer's mac homepgae to download, but that takes you to the same place that won;t download correctly in the first place. Download (eventually, slowly) makes it 99.9% of the way, and then I get a "POSIX error. Connection reset by peer"

Absolutely impossible to downloadf  

Link stalls, fails, stops, dies, and is generally useless. I'm a paid, registered customer, and I can't get the freakin' update. Just plain stupid

rendered Yahoo! mail unusable  

It would certainly be more user-friendly if, when faced with a site trying to download a cookie, you could choose to add it to the white list or to reject it via a pop-up menu. Further, I don;t want every cookie from, say, Yahoo! I don't want 'servedbyadvertising' cookies, etc. Other programs for other browsers let me select each and every cookie to accept or reject.

Try a restart after install  

I had the same experience. I had 7.0.3. The update installed 7.0.0! After restarting, and again trying to update, I still was no better off. I deleted the 7.0.0 folder and checked for updates via the 7.0.3 version itself, and there was no update available. I think that probably Adobe acrobat upgraded to 7.0.5, so they renamed all the versions of its components, like Reader, to 7.0.5 even though they didn't actually change the version…
