You are using Hazel’s “App Sweep” feature right?
It’s in the “Trash” pane of the Hazel control panel. Whenever an application is put in the trash, Hazel automatically offers to clean up any detritus associated with the application.
Junecloud makes the terrific Delivery Status widget and Delivery Status Touch for iOS. If you do a lot of package tracking, these are the best tools available.
But I noticed that they also provide a free set of Automator actions that are very handy.
“Save for Web” generates images with specific size and quality settings. “Make Names Web-Friendly” replaces spaces and other special characters to web friendly characters such as underscores.
Path Finder is one of the unspoken heroes of my Mac. It’s been around for years and it’s one of my secret tools for working with files. It’s the Finder for geeks. Here’s an overview of some of Path Finder’s most helpful features.
The Shelf The Path Finder shelf is a temporary holding place for files. Once loaded up, all the files on the shelf can be manipulated as one group.
I gave a brief thumbs up to ReadNow a few days ago but I always intended to give the application a deeper review after I had more time with it. I’m here to tell you that it has changed the way I use Instapaper.
Instapaper, Then I love me some Instapaper. Well, I love to put things into Instapaper. Instapaper has become the bottomless inbox that every procrastinator hopes for. It’s a place I put aspirations.
My previous look at a beer inventory system focused on Bento. In this overview, I’ll explain my experiences while using Apple’s Numbers for the same purpose.
Using the Mac Numbers already stands out as the best general spreadsheet application on any platform. But this is not a Numbers review. How does it work as an inventory application?
Not surprisingly, it works like a spreadsheet. That’s not necessarily bad. The Numbers interface is nice.
A funny thing happened when I was reading through references for Python on OS X. Dr.Drang had a link to Apple's Scripting Bridge page. The funny part is that Apple appears to now redirect that page to the Automator page. It doesn't give me a lot of confidence in learning the Scripting Bridge.
Here's the new home.
Beginner and what I assume is advanced, since I can't understand most of it. Enough between each to make the shell a bit more attractive.
My secondary monitor goes all squirly occasionally when I wake the displays. It's a NEC Multisync 3090WQXi and a very nice display. I suspect the issue is the Apple DVI adapter. If you have similar issues, the most reliable and easy solution is to force the displays to sleep and wake.
There's a shortcut key combo for sleeping displays: ctrl-shift-eject.
I wrote about the Mac application “Fake”[1] awhile ago. From my very first use, I thought it was an incredibly clever tool. Fake is like a super-charged automator for Webkit. It makes automating interactions with webpages easy and simple. But why would I want to use Fake instead of Automator or curl or even a Python script? Here’s an example that I just started using.
If I want to add an affiliate link for a Mac or iOS app, I need to visit the Apple Link Maker page with my affiliate id as a get-parameter in the link.
[1]Avatron lanA Tron, the makers of Air Sharing, have released a new iOS and Mac Matt app named Air Dictate.[2] The application “integrates” with Siri on the iPhone 4S to dictate into any text field on the Mac. The Mac he MTac must be running the free companion application but the dictation results are placed in the currently active text editor. There is a brief pause will Siri does her magic and performs the translation but the dictated text is popped right into a Mac application without any further user interaction.
