I have been using mpeg streamclip for the last couple of years, but the top free app in the app store is simply called "Smart Converter", released on July 6th http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/smart-converter/id447513724?mt=12
Haven't tried that one. Looks like iFunia is currently $13.99. I think it was $4.99 on sale when I got it (down from $34.99). I have files from my video camera (.MPT format), that iMovie accepts, but nothing else on the MAC does. Works great for converting the MPT files to whatever I need.
Downloaded it. I tried it like 3 months ago with the dev version but that one was buggy. Def like some of the new features.
It's taking me a while to get used to the new scrolling feature.. but I feel like I can't go back to the old one since Apple is trying to make this the "standard."
From iTunes, select File->Add file to library and highlight the WMA file you wish to import. It will convert it to AAC.
Not much to dislike about it.. seems like they combined spaces with whatever it was called that you could see all your open aps at one time.
I still don't get the difference between Spaces and expose. i mean I can drag my pointer to the top left corner to see all my open apps. and how does time machine work? is it a backup?
If I’m not mistaken I think you have to buy snow leopard in order to even get OS X lion since it is only available in the app store. Right?
Yeah basically it backs up everyday (or every time your mac is on) and if you accidently delete a file or whatever you can go back in time to where that file exists and just restore it.
I'm having a problem with Launchpad. I used to have Parallels installed on my computer but recently deleted the app with AppCleaner. When I open Launchpad, all of my old Microsoft applications are still there and I can't delete them the conventional way by clicking the "X" in the corner. They're also not in my App folder at all so I can't delete them through there. Any ideas?
Why would there be less possibility of wiping out a file? They both do the same thing. While dragging and dropping, you can accidentally "let go" of the mouse or "unclick" and drop files somewhere you don't want them to go. I use both, but there are times when the cut and paste option is a lot faster/more convenient for me.
Exactly. I installed an app that makes it possible under Snow Leopard. I am kind of hesitant to install Lion, I think I'm going to wait for people's reports on compatibility of various apps first.
So apparently PC users love Lion, Mac users, not so much. Great read by an avid PC user Paul Thurott (of Windows Weekly): http://www.winsupersite.com/article/apple/apple-mac-os-lion-review-139776 I'll say it, I'm interested now... Here's my only question, WTF is the point of Launch Pad in a non touched based environment?...
Hoping to do a clean install later tonight and try out the new stuff. I hope it doesn't have any hiccups with Logic Pro and all my plugins. I know I'm asking for trouble, but I can't help but jump on any new OS release, whether it's OS X, Windows, or Ubuntu.
