MacOSaiX 2.0 (Mac OS X)

Strange bug  

I've used Macosaix in the past, with very nice results. This new release has a serious bug for me: the nearly white areas are filled with dark tiles. The borders of the white area are ok, but in the centre the tiles are dark. In the same way, nearly black areas are filled with light tiles, giving a weird effect on shadows. I tried many different images, formats, tiles combinations, number and cropping settings with no success. I wrote the developer, who kindly replied me and sent me a new beta release, which unfortunately has the same problem. From that moment, I had no more news... he didn't reply to my mails anymore. Anyone has the same problem with Macosaix? MacPro, 10.5.4 [alert admin]

BatChmod 1.5 (Mac OS X)

Does it work?  

I've tried to change permissions to a few folders, with absolutely no success. Everything stays the same in all of those folders. I'm surprised because I've used BatChmod for a long time... any idea? Macpro, OS 10.5.2 [alert admin]

Heidrun 0.7.2 (Mac OS X)

It doesn't work on Leopard  

Since I upgraded to OS 10.5, Heidrun fails to load the users list, and hangs forever... It's a pity, because it used to be the best Hotline client. Does anyone know how to contact the developer, asking for workarounds or even if he can recompile this nice little program? Thanks [alert admin]

Apple Mac OS X 10.5.2 (Mac OS X)

Incompatibility with Fontexplorer X  

Fontexplorer X was in my login items, and as soon as I updated to 10.5.2, I got many issues with several applications, including the dock, which freezes when I try to open a stack/folder. When I quit Fontexplorer X, everything is back to normal. I hope they fix this soon: it's my favorite font manager. [alert admin]

PureFTPd Manager 1.7 (Mac OS X)

Thanks!  

This is a great app: easy to set up, stable and free... What else could we want? I was checking every day for the Leopard update, and here it is. Well done, Matthieu! [alert admin]

PureFTPd Manager 1.6.3 (Mac OS X)

It doesn't work on Leopard  

This was one of my favorite apps, but looks like it's not compatible with the new Mac os 10.5... Will it be updated? I hope so. [alert admin]

Perian 0.5 (Mac OS X)

AVI files won't play  

Since I installed Perian in Library/Quicktime, avi files which used to play don't work anymore. I don't know if it's a conflict or else, but as soon as I remove Perian and log out/in, they play again. Here's a list of my QT components: AppleHDVCodec.component AppleIntermediateCodec.component DesktopVideoOut.component DivX 6 Decoder.component DVCPROHDCodec.component DVCPROHDMuxer.component DVCPROHDVideoDigitizer.component DVCPROHDVideoOutput.component DVCPROHDVideoOutputClock.component DVCPROHDVideoOutputCodec.component FCP Uncompressed 422.component Flip4Mac WMV Export.component Flip4Mac WMV Import.component IMXCodec.component LiveType.component Perian.component The developers should check that too.

Skype 1.4.0.33 (Mac OS X)

Hmm, problem fixed like magic after this...  

It's probably a coincidence, but the day after I published my previous comment, Skype support finally contacted me and sent a new password. Looks like my original one was deleted (and with mine all the others whose users are complaining in the forums). I'm happy that everything works again and I still got my money, but I wonder what happened and why they didn't warn their clients when realizing something was wrong. [alert admin]

Skype 1.4.0.33 (Mac OS X)

WARNING: SKYPE HAS BIG PROBLEMS WITH ACCOUNTS  

I'm very disappointed while writing this: after more than a year of happy Skype calls, my account has been suddenly messed up. I can't simply log in anymore, 'cause it says my password is wrong, while it's NOT. It has always been the same!! I can't access to my account in their website, nor retrieve my password... I wrote several mails to Skype support asking to get my account back, since I still have some money left in there and I don't want to make a new one. All I got is a default stock reply with instructions on how to connect... they don't even read my mails. Check Skype forums, it's a big issue now: since mid December many users had their accounts "broken" and Skype team refuse to say anything about it. If they want to keep their market in the international calls business, they'd better move their a** and get things sorted out!! Next: I'm going to report this to my credit card company and ask for a refund. [alert admin]

Chop 1.0b (Mac OS X)

Maybe I'm doing something wrong but...  

...I tried several times to drag a folder over Chop and, though the settings seem correct, it only changed the folder's owner/permissions but NOT its content. In this way the app is almost useless: I don't want to drag all the files one by one. Any suggestions? [alert admin]

Booooo!  

Limewire is another protocol, and works in a different way. Giving a bad rate to Transmission because you like LW more is simply nonsense: you should rather compare it to another bittorrent client. In its field, Transmission is the best.

Does it work?  

No way: I've relaunched the Finder and checked the folders again before and after that... no permission has been changed. Very weird! And more: every time I close the window, it crashes and I got the warning "the application has unexpectedly quit"... The info says "BatChmod version 1.38 (1.5)" ...is it the correct one?

Failure  

Just ctrl-click on any floating clock and choose "view in menu". ...And of course you can set the apperarance for each clock in preferences. That wasn't difficult, was it?

Google Earth + Google Stars = Google Universe  

I think the application hasn't changed much: it just loads a new database, which doesn't lie in your HD, and it works in the same way. Welcome Google Stars!

not great  

You can't give a bad rating for something that a program is not supposed to do! NO VoIP in the world can give you free phone calls, can you understand it? Now you should give 1 star to iChat too, since you can't make free calls to telephones with that either. Skype works great and it's 10 times cheaper than the regular fares for international calls.
