Microsoft Office 2004 11.5.1 (Mac OS X)

Have installed but...  

No auto update despite checking manually several times last night and this morning. So I downloaded and installed the standalone version from Microsoft, after seemingly installing successfully the "about" box in Word gives the wrong version number - 11.5.0 instead of 11.5.11. Seems to work OK but the whole process of installing this update is a bit wonky. [alert admin]

Apple MobileMe 1.1 (Mac OS X)

Wow! Great but...  

What about all those 10.4.11 users that have been left in the mire. It's all very well making this tool to sort out this problem but thousands of "Tiger" users are left with a real mess to sort out in terms of re-organising their email. Yeah yeah I know- it supposedly works seamlessly with .me.com but you can't select "username@me.com" to email from in Apple Mail, which is pretty useless. What about something to help Tiger users...?

StuffIt Expander 12.0.2 (Mac OS X)

The only reason to use Stuffit Expander...  

The only reason I have to use Stuffit Expander is to open the .sit/x archives files that I rather stupidly made a between 5 & 2 years ago. I haven't had a attachment in .sit or .sitx format in around 18 months, nobody seems to use it anymore and PC users certainly don't want anything sent to them as stuffit files. Stuffit is a unreliable, bloated [approx 5 times larger download than Unarchiver], slow and tends to overrun file associations. I find myself uninstalling Stuffit until I have to use it to expand an old file [something that is happening increasingly rarely- thank the DNA!]. Sadly the rate at which .sitx files open is so slow & also unreliable I don't have the time or energy to open all my archives and re-compress them in another format. Stuffit Deluxe is even more flaky and incredibly expensive for what it does. I just wish there was an alternative for opening .sitx files... :~( [alert admin]

LaunchBar 4.3.7 (Mac OS X)

Great product but...  

Is it just me but has anyone else found that you have to rename/remove the ".bz" suffix from the end of the download file to be able to uncompress the ".bz2" file and get at the disk image. If I try to uncompress the download as-is no disk image appears, just a folder containing a file called "Content" Otherwise a fantastic product! [alert admin]

Football Widget 2.3.2 (Mac OS X)

Football?  

Why is it called football? %99.999 of the game is played without the ball actually touching feet. Surely handball is a more accurate name. Now football I can understand being called football and even Rugby-football involves kicking the ball regularly but this game... ;~) [alert admin]

VueScan 8.4.44 (Mac OS X)

Great software.  

Years of using VueScan in various situations have taught me that there is no other program like it. OK, it's a little bit different but can you honestly show me something else that can do everything from one-click no-brainer operations to complex archival scans and colour profiling with so many different scanners... No thought not. Yes there are some extra features that would be super-spangly but frankly I feel cheeky asking for them considering the value of this program. If you read the instructions and contact Hamrick with your problems the level of support and responsiveness is outstanding. Unbeatable program! [alert admin]

LaunchBar 4.3 (Mac OS X)

Fantastic  

Speechless, can't believe LB is so good and keeps getting better. The new "instant open' feature alone is a breakthrough. My macs without LB is unthinkable! [alert admin]

Ten Thumbs Typing Tutor 4.3.1 (Mac OS X)

Cross platform use and great suppost  

Someone stole my Powerbook (*#°ç°n§!) but thanks to RunRev I can use TTTT on a loaned windows PC (despite buying a Mac licence) and at last my typing is progressing quickly whilst have time on my hands. Wish I could so the same with CS2! I should have put more effort in to using this program a long time ago, you get out what you put in I guess?! The RunRev teame were very supportive and I'm very grateful. [alert admin]

Application Enhancer 2.0.3 (Mac OS X)

Difficult decision...  

A couple of weeks ago I decided to try to manage without window shading and got rid of everything to do with APE. I hate life without windowshading! Why did Apple have to get rid of one of the most useful feature of the old OS? Sadly it also seems to be true that my systems runs better without APE. I'm grateful to Unsanity for the windowshading they have provided since OS 10 appeared but on balance the reliability and predictable behaviour that I get without APE (On G4, G5 and Intel) means I have decided to live with Expose (a poor second best)... Apple- Why-oh-why did you ditch window shading? [alert admin]

Price Increase Skyrocketed  

For the first time as long as I can remember American made products have reached a reasonable price. For years it has been normal for well known US products to be dollar for pound/euro- i.e. something that costs 100 USD in the North America cost 100 GBP/130 Euro over here [195 USD at todays rate]. That does not reflect the true price of the goods, frankly considering the that a dollar has traditionally been worth less…

My house is at the wrong place  

Hmmm,so is it GE Magellan or all the other stuff that's wrong or did someone play with the aatellite images to make the house in the wrong place. And who's human error is it? No, this comment isn't helpful or logical either is it?

There are no Mac viruses.  

Another reason to have NAV on a (non-server) mac is to stop you passing on any virus in an email that you forward to clients, colleagues, friends or family that have windows PC's. I'm not worried about my mac- it's other people's computers that I don't want to be infected.

Fix Browser Soviet Bug  

Yes- the same Soviet technology that kept the ISS operating (while the superior Orbiter killed all its crew) and builds such superbly manoeuvrable planes that fly without all those computers to assist. Maybe it's the shoddy German underpinnings of Safari (licenced by Apple from KDE Konqueror) that is causing your problem not Motion? The former Soviet block countries still produce brilliant careful and productive scientists and engineers. The fact that the politics like our system was flawed…

Users like Road Dog .........  

I Can't see anything by Road Dog so the last post doesn't make any sense (am I missing something here?). DiscBlaze however makes perfect sense and is a great product- keep up the good work!
