5 useful utilities for your mac

5 best utilities for your mac




Everyone has their favourite utilities, ones they can't do without or that considerably enhance their computer experience, here's macmends, we use them, so we want to recommend them, 5 simple utilties that will support and extend your your mac use.



Quicksilver: although we mostly use this as a simple app launcher it really does so much more. There are competitors like finder pop, launchbar, alaunch and others this is the granddaddy



Glims (safari add-on) its what makes the super fast safari into a useable browser. Its really all the best firefox plugins rolled into one and made just for safari...try it it will change your browsing experience for ever.










"Apple Macbook White 13" 2.4GHz (Intel Core 2 Duo, 2Gb, 250Gb, NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, up to 10 hour battery life)" (Apple Computer)









Dropbox - Secure backup, sync and sharing made easy. DropBox. is an application that creates a special Finder folder that automatically and securely syncs online and between your computers. It allows you to both backup files and keep them up-to-date between systems. You have to register at the site before you use it. These days we can't do without it



icon OnyX, is still free and one of the best mac maintenance and repair tools around, when we get requests on our boards for help we often point people toward this utility.



icon clipmenu, we use to use another multi pasteboard, but now use this andjumpcut. Its simple really, it remembers all the things you copy to the pastebaord, instead of just the last one and allows them to be the item you paste next. This really is an incredibly useful tool that should be built into every OS.



Well hope these are useful
