What are your favorite apps and utilities? in All Things Macintosh http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r7615122 en Thu, 10 Dec 2009 01:38:47 EDT Thu, 10 Dec 2009 01:38:47 EDT Re: What are your favorite apps and utilities? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8238898 rondillon : StickyBrain (free from .Mac for subscribers, even!) has turned out to be a great app. I've suddenly got all sorts of random little notes and links and such all wrangled in and located in one easily-searchable place!

Oh... Hi, all! I'm new!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8238898 Wed, 15 Oct 2003 17:28:24 EDT Re: What are your favorite apps and utilities? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,7628222 Gomez : The latest one I can't live without is NoteTaker.

A bit pricy, but worth it if you have a lot of seemingly random bits of information that you want to keep organized.

PTH Clock. Excellent replacement for the menu bar clock.

Filemaker Pro. Can't keep track of my patients without this baby. Still using 5.5 v2, won't upgrade until version 7 comes out.

FMSync for OS X. I have to have a way to get those FM Pro files onto my Palm Tungsten!

Thoth. Shareware newsreader for OS X. Worth the money. Buy it. Now.

The iApps, especially iTunes. This, along with my new iPod, has totally changed the way I listen to music. I am late to the digital music party, but I'm here.

Edit: Prefling. How could I forget? Dock-based addition allows you to choose which System Preference you want to change and open that instead of opening the Sys. Prefs program to do this. Very convenient.

SSH - the secure shell, and so-much-more. Comes on every Mac OS X box. Learn it, love it, live it. I'm convinced - SSH can do pretty much anything.


And for the CLI-challenged there's SSH Tunnel Manager ;)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,7615638 Thu, 07 Aug 2003 16:42:34 EDT Re: What are your favorite apps and utilities? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,7615570 prwood : SSH - the secure shell, and so-much-more.

screen - shell multiplexor. Lets you disconnect from your shell session, and then pick it back up later. Also comes on every Mac OS X box. Embrace your inner and outer shells.

OSXvnc - Access your Mac desktop from any computer on the 'net.

Batchmod

From the website:
"Its simple and elegant
It allows one to change any specific privilege or ownership without affecting the other (ie, changing the group without affecting the owner, or adding or removing a specific privilege without affecting all the others).
It can recursively affect enclosed folders.
It can Force Empty the Trash, even when it contains locked files!
It's extremely free! "

The other utility is DropNuke

You can delete any file that was locked under OS9. This has been a bit of a problem especially for those moving from OS9 Servers to OSX Servers.

I like PTHPasteboard, which lets me have multiple clipboards in a drop-down menu.

And I like to find new stuff Chez Mark
