NFS Manager 3.71 - For easy access to the NFS features of OS X. (Shareware)

NFS Manager 3.71 - For easy access to the NFS features of OS X. (Shareware): "

NFSManager is a small tool for easy access to the NFS features of OS X. As an operating system with a Unix core, OS X is able to support the Network File System (NFS) protocol according to Internet specification RFC 1094. NFS is the accepted industry standard for sharing files between Unix systems.

Although NFS is a built-in component of OS X, users cannot access this feature without special knowledge and use of the command-line. NFSManager solves this problem by providing an easy-to-use Aqua interface for the definition of NFS connections.

Version 3.71:

  • This version contains an updated version of the reference manual and minor changes in the English translation of the user interface.
  • Added a workaround for a compatibility problem between the OS X automounter and OS X directory services which could cause the read-only option for automount entries to be silently ignored.

X-Plane 10.20 - Ultra-realistic flight simulator (release candidate).. (Updater)

X-Plane 10.20 - Ultra-realistic flight simulator (release candidate).. (Updater): "

X-Plane is the world's most comprehensive, powerful flight simulator, and has the most realistic flight model available for personal computers.

Welcome to the world of props, jets, single- and multi-engine airplanes, as well as gliders, helicopters and VTOLs such as the V-22 Osprey and AV8-B Harrier.

X-Plane comes with subsonic and supersonic flight dynamics, sporting aircraft from the Bell 206 Jet-Ranger helicopter and Cessna 172 light plane to the supersonic SR-71 and Space Shuttle. X-Plane comes with 35 aircraft spanning the aviation industry (and history), and several thousand more are freely downloadable from the internet. (See www.X-Plane.org as a good place to start).

X-Plane scenery is world-wide, with scenery for the entire planet Earth between 74 degrees north to 60 degrees south latitude. We also have MARS scenery! (thanks to the Mars Orbiting Laser Altimeter, which mapped that planet's elevation). On Earth, you can land at any of over 33,000 airports, as well as test your mettle on aircraft carriers, helipads on building tops, frigates that pitch and roll in the waves, and oil rigs.

Weather is variable from clear skies and high visibility to thunderstorms with controllable wind, wind shear, turbulence, and microbursts! Rain, snow and clouds are available for an instrument flying challenge, and thermals are available for the gliders! Real weather conditions can be downloaded from the internet, allowing you to fly in the actual weather that currently exists at the location of flight!

X-Plane also has detailed failure-modeling, with multitudes of systems that can be failed manually or randomly, when you least expect it! You can fail instruments, engines, flight controls, landing gear, or dozens of other systems at any moment.

While X-Plane is the world's most COMPREHENSIVE flight sim, your purchase also comes with Plane-Maker (to create your own airplanes) Airfoil-Maker (allowing users to create airfoil performance profiles), and Weather Briefer (to get a weather briefing before the flight if you use real weather conditions downloaded from the internet).

X-Plane is also extremely customizable, allowing you to easily create textures, sounds, and instrument panels for your own airplanes that you design or the planes that come with the sim.

X-Plane's accuracy (in flight model), scope (in aircraft and terrain coverage), versatility (in aircraft type and weather conditions), add-on programs (in aircraft and scenery editors), customizability, downloadable aircraft, and downloadable scenery makes it the ULTIMATE flight simulation experience for Mac, Windows, and Linux platforms.

BE SURE TO TURN ON THE BETA option in the installer before you run it to get the beta!

The demo contains a limited scenery area to keep the download size reasonable. It will run for 10 minutes before it begins to ignore the user's input, at which point the simulator must be restarted to fly more.



Version 10.20 (RC1):
  • The Kingair and Baron have both been updated.
  • Bug fixes:
    • Waste-gate has been fixed for turbo-charged recip airplanes with a waste-gate. For example, the Carenado Mooney will now develop 190 HP on the runway, not 40 HP.
    • X-Plane won't recommend safe-mode just because Plane-Maker is open.
    • French translation updated.
    • Fix for crash in custom scenery when using library objects on sloped terrain.
    • Fixed crash when using ppjoy virtual devices with analog hat switches. (We do not support analog hat switches, so do not set one up. But now they won't crash the sim.)
    • The installer will re-launch the sim in the same mode (64-bit or 32-bit) as you had before when auto-updating. Note that this will only work on the first update _from_ rc1 to a new update.
    • Worked around black sky on Intel HD GPUs in HDR mode. Note that these GPUs aren't very powerful, so we recommend running with HDR off.
    • Worked around shader compile fail on Intel HD 4000 GPUs.
    • Fixed nav-aid saving to not write out bogus NDB.
    • Fixed crash on Mac with PS3 controller over blue-tooth.


  • Mac OS X 10.5 or later
  • a 2 GHz, dual-core CPU
  • 2 GB of RAM
  • a DirectX 9-capable video card with 128 MB of on-board, dedicated video RAM (VRAM). See here for compatibility and graphics cards.

CDRViewer now allows you to open CorelDRAW files on your Mac. As every designer knows CorelDRAW was discontinued after version 11. We have developed a simple application that opens CorelDRAW files on the Mac OS. When you install CDRViewer on your Mac, you will be able to open CDR files. CDRViewer is free-for-use software. CDR file format stands for CorelDRAW and this extension is proprietary format used by CorelDRAW software.

This was only possible on Windows. With CDRViewer there is no need to another operating system and another machine to display CDR file formats.

Subsonic 4.7 - Web based media streamer.. (Free)

Subsonic 4.7 - Web based media streamer.. (Free): "

Subsonic is a free, web-based media streamer, providing ubiquitous access to your music. Use it to share your music with friends, or to listen to your own music while at work. You can stream to multiple players simultaneously, for instance to one player in your kitchen and another in your living room.

Subsonic is designed to handle very large music collections (hundreds of gigabytes). Although optimized for MP3 streaming, it works for any audio or video format that can stream over HTTP, for instance AAC and OGG. By using transcoder plug-ins, Subsonic supports on-the-fly conversion and streaming of virtually any audio format, including WMA, FLAC, APE, Musepack, WavPack and Shorten.

If you have constrained bandwidth, you may set an upper limit for the bitrate of the music streams. Subsonic will then automatically resample the music to a suitable bitrate.

In addition to being a streaming media server, Subsonic works very well as a local jukebox. The intuitive Web interface, as well as search and index facilities, are optimized for efficient browsing through large media libraries. Subsonic also comes with an integrated Podcast receiver, with many of the same features as you find in iTunes.

Based on Java technology, Subsonic runs on most platforms, including Windows, Mac, Linux and Unix variants.

Subsonic is open-source software licensed under GPL.

Version 4.7:

  • New: Auto-import playlists and update playlist statistics after scan.
  • New: Upgraded to JW Player 5.10.
  • Bugfix: Rescan looses comments and play statistics.

Coollector Movie Database 3.24.2 - Personal movie and video collection manager.. (Shareware)

Coollector Movie Database 3.24.2 - Personal movie and video collection manager.. (Shareware): "

Coollector Movie Database is the only program to be a personalized movie database, as well as a video collection manager. The closest programs are just video collection managers.

To begin with, the program includes a huge encyclopedia of more than 100,000 movies and series, updated weekly. Because it's installed on your computer, you can use it even when you're offline. The interface is very easy to use, and richly illustrated with movie posters, video covers, photographs of movie people, and even character screenshots. You can customize the layout to your liking, and make almost any search you can think of, with no need to be a database engineer.

Then, you'll start personalizing the database. You can rate all the movies that you've seen, to remember whether they were good or bad. You can maintain a wishlist with all the movies that you'd like to watch. You can even organize your video collection, remembering what you own, where it's stored, and what you've loaned to whom. You'll soon appreciate that the movie database is personalized. Indeed, your own movies are now highlighted, and colored icons will instantly remind you of how much you like a movie or a person.

As a movie lover, this will greatly help you when you have to pick up a movie, when watching TV, or going to the theaters. Does the movie have actors whom you like? Have you seen other movies from this director? At first glance you'll have the answer! And to help you even further in your choice, the program displays the IMDb rating and popularity of each movie, and provides a link to the trailers on Youtube.

If you're also a video collector, you'll easily list all the movies that you own. You can even scan the video files on your hard disk. They'll be added automatically, and you'll be able to play them from the program. Finally, if you want to grow your collection at the best price without missing a bargain, a database of existing videos is also included, with prices updated daily.



Version 3.24.2:

Note: The downloadable version is 3.24.2. The Mac App Store version is currently 3.24.1.
