There are tons of nice software titles for Mac OS. Occasionally, we see bad ones, too. Maybe, they are badly programmed. In the meantime, the source of a series of nightmares doesn’t have to be software itself. If you sign up to download a trial version, chances are that they will send you annoying newsletters by e-mail even after the trial period is over. Continue reading
TOKYO (MacHouse) – More than 17 hours ago, an organized spam terrorist group sent out at least 3 copies of an e-mail message. (See Screenshot 01.) Sender’s e-mail address is shown as music@help-customer.org. The title of the message is shown as ‘Download New Version of iTunes.’ If he or she clicks on any of the links shown in the message, the mail recipient will eventually reach a website looking as if it were an official iTunes download site.

We ended the last report after talking about the third project type, which is ‘Video.’ We are going to skip the fourth one, which is Copy, because there is nothing new. (See Screenshot 30.)
By the way, what happened to the Export button? (See Screenshot 31.) Toast 7 & 8 enables the user to compress a video by clicking on this button. Then you will have access to QuickTime compressors, right? Toast 9 doesn’t have this button under Video. Continue reading
I first started using Roxio Toast when the version was 3. It came with an external drive that I bought. Roxio Toast is one of the most widely used Mac titles. It’s constantly updated. So what’s new in Toast 9?
To beginning with…
When you first launch Roxio Toast 9 Titanium, you may notice that the design of the application window hasn’t changed much. Let’s take a good look at Screenshot 01. There are 5 buttons at the top left corner of the window. And one of them is new. The software developer has added a new project type called Convert. Click on any of the project types, and you will notice that each option has an info button. Actually, it’s not a button. So you don’t have to press anything. If you just place your Mouse over i, the description of the option will appear. (See Screenshot 02.) Continue reading

If we see a deadly system error repeatedly as shown in Screenshot 01 and 02, what can we actually do to stop it? The cheapest solution will be to use Disk Utility’s First Aid to find disk errors. Or you could run TechTool, which we reviewed the other day, to find disk problems. It is possible that the situation is caused by a Trojan virus and complicated by network utility software. So you might want to run McAfee’s VirusScan, Norton AntiVirus or other anti-virus software. Continue reading
