Firefox 9.0 offers Mac OS X Lion gesture support

by Mike Schramm (Dec 21st, 2011)

Firefox 9 is out now (the public page hasn't been updated yet as of this writing, but the build is available from official links already), and while that in itself isn't really big news (the uberpopular browser updates all the time, and plenty of people have already chosen to use Chrome or ...

Put a Windows Phone 7 theme on your iPhone

by David Quilty (Feb 1st, 2011)

Been trying to think of a way to try out a new Windows phone without crossing over to the dark side switching sides? If that's the case and you have been looking for a way to recreate the Windows Phone 7 interactive theme on your iPhone or iPod touch, Wyndwarrior's "OS7" is available in public beta ...

Elixir offers new RapidWeaver theme and special bundle

by Christina Warren (Jan 29th, 2009)

Here at TUAW, RapidWeaver is our longstanding-favorite WYSIWYG web site creation tool. I personally like to to use RapidWeaver for rapid prototyping or for creating sites that don't need a CMS backend. One of the best parts of RapidWeaver is its extensive library of beautiful themes. Elixir makes ...

Bowtie: iTunes controller with style

by Brett Terpstra (Dec 7th, 2008)

I like the idea of iTunes controllers, but a lot of the apps I try are too CPU intensive or just plain feature-bloated, so I just live with some AppleScripts set to hotkeys. I discovered Bowtie a little while ago, though, and it's a perfect fit for my needs. It's tiny, unobtrusive and its look ...

Education-oriented iWeb Themes

by Steven Sande (Sep 16th, 2008)

While it's a bit too late for our Back-To-School series, here's an announcement for those in education (student, teacher, parent, or administrator) who use iWeb to create school or personal websites. Jumsoft has announced five new iWeb themes specifically for education. The iWeb Education Themes ...

GrApple themes bring Safari's UI touches to Firefox

by Robert Palmer (Jun 17th, 2008)

For those of you who aren't looking forward to Firefox 3's default new look today, might I suggest an FF2 theme called GrApple Yummy, from Aronnax. It makes Firefox a dead ringer for Safari. In fact, Aronnax claims it looks three times more beautiful than Safari. Your mileage, of course, may vary. ...

New iWeb themes from Jumsoft

by Steven Sande (Jun 8th, 2008)

iWeb 2 (the iLife '08 version, that is) comes with an assortment of 26 different themes, but if you're tired of trying to mod the Comic Book theme for your new blog, you may want to look at ten new iWeb themes from Jumsoft. There's a good assortment of styles in the Jumsoft collection. I personally ...

DragThing 5.9 with Leopard support and full dragabilty

by Mike Schramm (Oct 19th, 2007)

DragThing, which could have my favorite Mac app name ever, is a launcher that will open up anything you (surprise!) drag to it, and can also work as a Dock alternative and a visual clipboard. The idea is that everything you need is just a click (or a hotkey press) away. And now, this thing has hit ...

Dockables: Control your Mac from your Dock

by David Chartier (Aug 10th, 2007)

We have a pretty wide array of choices when it comes to controlling our Mac, but Dockables adds even one more way to do things like shut down, start a screensaver or sleep the display. More of a collection of tiny apps than a full-blown utility, Dockables simply installs a folder in your ...

Keynote '08 Picture Frames hack

by Mike Schramm (Aug 8th, 2007)

Brian sent us (thanks!) what is probably the very first Keynote '08 hack. He found that there's a new stroke option in the program called Picture Frames, which are various types of framing graphics to put around a slide. The standard choice screen lets you choose from 12, but Brian opened up the ...

iWeb '08

by David Chartier (Aug 7th, 2007)

I need to come right out and say it: I am really, really excited for iWeb and all the new .Mac changes. With the first version of iWeb, Apple didn't seem to quite 'get it' yet; everything you could build into your pages had to more or less come from your Mac desktop. In a web 2.0 world though, ...

On TextMate extras

by David Chartier (Dec 31st, 2006)

Like me, there are probably a lot of fresh new TextMate users out there in the audience thanks at least in part to MacHeist, so I thought it would be pertinent to point out a few helpful resources Allan Odgaard (TM's developer) maintains at macromates.com. Of course the searchable mailing list and ...

iSticky offers notes with reminders, sending via Bonjour, more

by David Chartier (Jun 12th, 2006)

Sticky notes are great, but sticky notes that can have reminder alarms, be sent to other Macs via Bonjour, sent over the web and SMS, archived and more - are better. If any of these features have your inner nerd excited, then check out iSticky - a sticky note app on steroids. Also on the feature ...

Skin Thunderbird with a Mail look

by David Chartier (Sep 19th, 2005)

Apparently someone by the name of "Riz" has a love-hate relationship with Apple's Mail, for Riz has gone and created a pretty darn accurate Mail theme for Mozilla's Thunderbird. While I don't have a copy of Thunderbird to test this, it seems the look, feel and most of the icons are all ...
