Date Difference 1.1 (Mac OS X)
... I could put in the number of days in the interval, and have it give me the date. Working with 15, 30, 90 and sometimes 120 day deadlines is always a pain when I have to count ahead in iCal. It works just fine for me on a G4 Dual 1GHz, 10.4.11 [alert admin]

iVolume 3.0.1 (Mac OS X)
Don't these developers talk to anyone? ![]()

iVolume had been an essential for me, but this version will certainly not be. The inability to simply choose which tracks I'd like to adjust is an absolute non-starter. What if I just want to adjust a half dozen tracks, right now? I don't want to go through my whole library! I don't want to create special groups! Why, if we can recognize an iTunes Library, can we not recognize iTunes playlists, like so many other iTunes integrated apps? Then I could just have an iVolumize list... Why must it load my whole library? Why must it slowly scroll through all the tracks that it has already done before it gets to the ones it needs to do? I'm on an old G4 Dual 1GHz so maybe the speed is my issue, but I would not call this blazingly fast. It would certainly be faster if it didn't laboriously load the whole library, scroll through all that it has done and then start trudging away at a list who's content and order I can't control. Very, very disappointed in the changes that results in a version with absolutely <b>NO PERCEIVABLE BENEFITS</b> and <b>100% DETRIMENT</b> to functionality and ease of use, but really shocked and disappointed by the illogic of instituting such radical changes without some kind of testing, survey or warning!

iTunes Album Artwork Locator 2.1 (Mac OS X)
This is a typo, right? You meant $2.49, right?
Right? [alert admin]

SoftSkies 1.3.1 (Mac OS X)
I was going to write a sarcastic review about how hard it is to find new ways to do something with the piles of extra money I have lying around, but why bother?
Maybe if I were willing to shell out $20 or $30 for a real look at this thing I might see something of value, but this so-called demo is so crippled, and the reminders that it is a demo so obtrusive, that I just want this boring and obnoxious thing off my desktop. It's just plain lame that there are so many supposed bells and whistles that you can't even get a look at without ponying up an exorbitant amount of money for a visualizer.
That aside, how is it as a visualizer? As another reviewer said: boring. Just not impressive. The built-in visualizers are more interesting and Jumping Steve is way more entertaining. Granted one man's meat is another man's poison. Nonetheless, even if it's your meat, this ground chuck is being sold at a tenderloin price.
Perhaps the "patent pending" cloud rendering is worth some money to CGI programmers, but this is a freakin' iTunes visualizer. Gimme a break. It's clouds. I'm going to pay $30 for clouds? Not in this lifetime.
As donation ware, this might merit a couple of bucks. Might. [alert admin]

iTunes Library Check 1.1 (Mac OS X)
...but the requirement that the music library be in the iTunes folder is an absolute non-starter for me, and doubtless thousands, if not millions, of others. I realize it's freeware, but if at all possible, allowing us to designate the location of the music folder would be helpful. Thanks. [alert admin]

StuffIt Deluxe 12.0.1 (Mac OS X)
How telling that the once essential, but always useful Stuffit has taken a serious nosedive not only in performance, stability and compatibility, but also in customer service and satisfaction now that Smith Micro is involved. Smith Micro proved to me with FAX STF long ago, that no product they handled was worth the powder to blow it to hell. Good bye Stuffit. It was nice while it lasted. Version 12 is everything I would expect from Smith Micro. Not worth the time it takes to install. Not worth the hassle caused by the install. And, weirdly, the stuffing and unstuffing is now slower than molasses in February. You would think it was unstuffing these files by hand, using little old men. G A R B A G E. [alert admin]

Mail Attachments Iconizer 2.0 (Mac OS X)
Maybe some people really, really nedd this and have no alternative. But $15 sounds about $10 too much for this minimal interface modification. I would guess that "view as icon" could probably be set as the default choice in Mail by anyone with Terminal skills. [alert admin]

Chopper 1.0.4 (Mac OS X)
I don't play games - but I played Chopper right through to the end, at least on the "Normal" level. It took me a very, very long time, over several months. The graphic effects and the sound are all cool. I can't wait for a sequel. Who can quibble with the price? [alert admin]

Little Snitch 2.0 beta 6 (Mac OS X)
Since I installed this beta, Pearlyrics 0.6.4 (newest) stopped working. I set up a rule to allow all connections, but still nothing. Pearlyrics can't even get what song is playing in iTunes anymore. Nothing shows up as a Little Snitch alert and nothing else for Pearlyrics is in the LS rules. Any ideas? [alert admin]

Do not buy this or any software from AppleSource!
I agree. I know a law firm in Boston that had an eerily similar experience.

Is there only one version of Firefox? I thought a Windows user would run the Windows version of the app.

Harold - I'd really like to hear how you manage to handle retainers within your system. I like iBiz, but have not been able to get it to properly handle/account for advance payments against which I bill my time, and which need to be replenished on a monthly basis. If I use the retainer function, my billing gets screwed up. If I use the billing & payment features, my retainers get screwed up. Timeslips did this…

The policy and attitude of Qdea is reprehensible. An issue like yors is NOT a tech suppport issue. It should be addressed in a FAQ at their site, but they insist on artificially propping up their price through lame service and attitude. Here's a way to get it working again: Delete every trace of Synch Pro and Qddea from your computer including the folder "~/Library/Preferences/Synchronize! X", and the file ~/Library/Preferences/com.qdea.syncprox.plist. Restart your Mac - there's some autosync…

I don't know if is a connection problem or a VT problem. There should have been only one post, and for the multiple repetitions I apologize. If you have learned 3 languages then you of all people should understand that all words do not mean the same thing to different people. I rely on context. In the context of this use, I was not shocked or offended. When I am, I speak up, but unless I KNOW…
