kevin_4e Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Let us begin with iSlayer's iStat Pro, the most complete system monitoring widget around. All nine panes are fully customizable along with 10 different skins to make the perfect match for your Dashboard... It's not too difficult to understand why SuperDuper! has been acclaimed to be the simplest and easiest way for a recovery. Its free Universal download is fully capable of making fully bootable backups along with a built in automatic scheduler... Uh-oh, looks like the newly opened Twenty Ninth Street Apple Store may be in for a bit of a loss. During the past month, one greedy iPod-fiend was able to make out with 42 new iPod nanos undetected. The total damage resulted in approximately US$8,705... Looking for a couple of ways to have the most creative use of a Mac Mini? Here are five irreplaceable Mac Mini mods to give you a few ideas... It seems as though we're seeing more iPod interfaces on Nintendo products than Apple products. Introducing the GameBoyPod... Let's play a game, "Take One, Leave One"... Looking for a different style of searching the web? Try PageBull's visual style of searching... And finally, "Microsoft, Wake Up and Smell Defeat." It seems apparent what player Chris Ferguson seems to like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPDM Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Great downloaded iStat pro ( the first thing in this links section) and now the dashboard doesn't even work anymore. What a {censored}load of {censored} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollcage Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 It works fine for me, try deleting the widget package from your computer. By the way, are you running it on a mac, or a hackintosh? My guess is that it isn't playing nice with your non-mac hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPDM Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Fixed it. Download another tool from a previous links-section called bye-bye-dashboard. Disabled and re)enabled the dashboard and it works again. Re-installed iStat and and that too works now. Weird. This 10.4.8 is really starting to {censored} me off. First the games that crash after a few seconds/minutes and now this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GmanBen Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 The link for SuperDuper did not work for me the first time I clicked it, but it did the second time. So far so good, even though the choices that you are able to use are limited on the free version. Anyways it is a cool backup tool and something I was looking for too, so I am giving it a try for my first full HD backup. Regarding the iStat Pro, that's a cool widget too. It does work on my hackintosh (well mostly since it doesnt see the fans, battery and temp data on the options), but the rest works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peekay_us Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Can anyone confirm if iStat works on the hackintosh? Thanks, Peekay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alucard! Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I liked the Page Bull. Something new to My eyes =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GmanBen Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Can anyone confirm if iStat works on the hackintosh?Thanks, Peekay Hmmm...this is weird but I replied to your question and the answer is not showing up. So here it is again: The iStat is working on my hackintosh (Jas 10.4.8) and most of the options work (Memory, CPU, Network, Drives, Uptime, and Resources). The rest does not work and shows as N/A (That being Fan, Temp and Battery). But in general most of the widget works great and looks nice too. If someone knows a fix for those couple options to work please let me know, thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danyel Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 RE: iStat Pro I was able to get an older version of iStat working on my Hackintosh (10.4.5 - Dell Inspiron 1300). I felt the widget did take up some real estate on my desktop. Here's what I use on my OSx86 desktops and laptops: http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/s.../ministat2.html Here's a snapshot of my MiniStat2 Widget: --danyel =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sadiekiller Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 yeah, Superduper! is a great program. My dad has been using the paid version for about 6 months now and he loves it. He decided to start backing up his computers when his powerbook's hard drive died with all the family accounting on it. he took it into apple and they replaced it and all, but he wanted them to transfer his music back from his iPod and they refused, saying its against policy. I told him I could probably find a tool for it in about 30 seconds, but he decided to pester apple for about a week before he let me fix it. I think he was soo mad because almost every single song was bought on the iTunes Music Store, so he was kinda pissed that they wouldn't let him get his music back easily that he paid them for. but yeah. every one of his computer's now has a Lacie drive to back up to.

potuz Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I've tried several versions of istat on all its variations and I could never get readings on fan speeds... same result with ministat2; is there any application that would do this on a Hackint0sh?
