Can anyone recommend a reliable recording app?

I'm looking for a quality recording app to record from the Internet on my iMac.
Thanks,
John

Hi,
Thanks for the heads up and congratulations on making level 8.
Looking at the OP's other posts it seems he was looking to record from an external device and isn't the propose of Greatdy Audio to shunt audio from one app to another? At least that is how I read it. If so then it's not going to do anything for the OP if he's looking to record an external device.
At least that's what I read but I just donated blood so my mind my be a bit fuzzy
regards
Edit
To the OP i second the recommnedation of Audacity. I have used it for years and it does a very good job.

Can anyone recommend a reliable external backup product that is not super slow?

I need a reliable external backup drive to store thousands of commercial photography projects that continue to add up over time. I've been using WD MyBook drives in 1 & 2 TB sizes and just purchased a Seagate 5TB drive. It is very slow on my system and seems to slow down my MAC. I have 16GB of RAM and that is all my system can hold. Can anyone recommend a solution for speeding up my backup processes and also not slowing down my system during backup?
Any help is greatly appreciated. - Geo

I am still in the Middle Ages as far as connectivity goes. USB2, Firewire and eSATA serve my needs. Though my MBP has a Thunderbolt port, I have not taken that step.
Take a look at what OWC has to offer:

This just a sample but should give you a good idea what is available. Naturally there are vendors as well.
Note that Thunderbolt hardware can be daisy chained, so not feel that you are restricted to two devices.

Can anyone recommend a reliable external hard drive?

Hi everyone,
I going to buy an external hard drive to back up my photos and music. I already use time machine, but I've lost files so many times in the past, either through equipment eventaully not working or laptops being stollen etc. So I guess I am backing my photos and music up twice. I want to get a reliable hard drive, with a lot of space (as I have a lot of photos and music) whilst keeping costs fairly reasonable.
Has anyone got any recommendations? Thanks in advance.

Well as with anything it can fail in one day or not for 10 years.
I have been using the Western Digital My Book Essential drives for about 5 or 6 years and the first 2 I bought, a 250GB and then a 500GB, are still working. So based on that, and the price and that it is USB 3, I purchased the newer style 2TB model.
It has also been my experience that if and when any external hard drive fails it is most likely the drive inside the enclosure is still good and it's just the electronics in the enclosure, the electronics that change the HDD standard connection to USB or Firewire or whatever, that have failed and taking the drive out of the enclosure allows you to get the data off it. That is if you have a SATA/IDE to USB adapter.
Of course there are times when the actual drive fails as they all do.

Can anyone recommend e-book reader app for mac os10.8.5

Hi
Im trying to find an app to use for e-books from public library and other free e-book resources. I am not ready to update to Mavericks which uses ibook app because I am waiting for some of the glitches ie printing, accessibility - dragon dicitate and all the problems reported by the support community discussions.
Personally I am not happy with ios 7 changes and I am reluctant to upgrade mac notebook and desktop. So I am being very cautious to make mac os changes especially when my printer being older model may or may not work and reports of dragon dictate, ms office and all the programs that are costly to replace.
I have vision problems and he ability to read an e-book both on and off line on a large screen would open a world of possibilies. While I like audiobooks nothing replaces seeing the words on a page and reading them to myself !
So when recommending an app please let me know how well it can increase font size, differentiate colors, and bookmark pages.
The ease of scolling and pagination in an e-book is important with my handicap.
I am financially unable to invest in purchasing apps that are more then $5.00 nor am I am to buy an e-reader like an ipad or other brands.
I know I could use a pdf app but the page flow of a pdf file is not visually appealing. I also find it hard to find where I left off reading.
Thank you in advance for your help

Thanks very much. That fixed the problem.

Can anyone recommend a reliable external HD?

I would like to store video clips as well as work off of a external HD (using FW800). I was looking at the G-Drive/G-Raid. Are they any good. Any other external HD's that are well known and reliable?

I've used Lacie, GTech & worldspan and many other drives over the years - from experience I would steer clear of Lacie, just my choice. I haven't seen the problems Shane is talking about, but listen to his experience. I think you are on to the right track with G-drive personally.
one little tip I can recommend when you get your drive -
deep format it in mac os extended (un journaled - you do not need a media drive to be journalled), then partition as follows 1 x 1gig partition labelled do not use (make this the first partition on the drive) 1 x whatever is left .
in my experience (working at a large facility with lots of FW drives) leaving the small partition alone protects the drives boot sector and if it does go down you can still recover your media. Don't ask me why (there are bound to be more skilled responses from here) hard experience has said it works....
Oh and don't let your drive go near a PC, freaky things happen

Can anyone recommend a quality archiving App?

Hi,
We're wanting to archive all our backed-up dvd's which contain our family pics, home movies, work files etc.
We would like a nice little slick App that lists all files on each disk in some kind of database so we can quickly see which disk contains each file without inserting every disk & searching it.
Or can this be done within Mountain Lion?
Cheers
Wayne & Family :-)

Dvds are not an archiving solution - they can deteriorate within a few years. Some Blu-ray disks are intended for archiving (they claim for centuries!) and so are better suited - provided you can find amuseum with a blu-ray disk reader that works in 20 years.
I have started using an MCE blu-ray burner with 25Gb disks for archiving photos etc. i expect there is software around to create a catalogue while burning disks.

Can Anyone Recommend a Funds Tracker App.?

I'm looking for an app. that'll track my funds portfolio for me. These are UK based ones and are unit and investment funds. The few programms I've found are mainly US-centric and appear (at first glance) to be for stocks only not funds.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Can anyone recommend a reliable, small wireless printer?

I am looking for a (as small as possible) wireless printer that works well wirelessly under OSX and could become a potential print center also for my iPad. I have had an Epson wireless PX800FW for a while, but it is bulky and the wireless connection is a pain to set up. I am looking for something smaller and simpler.
Thank you!

I'd really recommend the Canon MP640. However not word yet on Airprint compatability (although I have escalated this to Canon support). The scanning function works wirelessly too.

Can anyone recommend a reliable domain name and email hosint package?

I've been using Crazy Domains to store all my clients domain names and have also used them for their email hosting, but they are quite simply the most frustrating company to deal with. I'm looking to move all my domain names and email hosting to another company and would like advice and suggestions of where to go. Any help gratefully received.
Cheers,
Cathie

I'm using Dreamhost, have for a long time and have been happy with the service.

Can anyone recommend a 1tb external hard disk?

I'm looking to purchase yet another external hard drive. I've already got a couple of LaCie disks (80gb & 300gb), the latter of which is now full of Apple Lossless files and converted ACC files for my iPod.
As I keep seeming to underestimate my space requirements, I'm looking to get a 1tb disk. Initially I was going to go with another LaCie drive but I've read quite a lot of bad things about them.
I need something that's going to be reliable and fast. Ideally with FW400/FW800 and usb2 interfaces. From what I've discovered so far it seems that the G-Tech and the OWC Mercury Elite drives seem to be the best.
Can anyone either recommend one to me or warn me about others?
Many thanks
Mark

Thanks for your input Chris.
I've been trawling through Google searches to find reviews of various drives. I guess that I'm looking for a pair of 500gb mirrored RAID drives with USB2, Firewire 400 & 800 connections.
I'm having trouble getting away from Other World Computing's Mercury Elite–AL Pro 800 RAID STRIPE FireWire 800/400.

But my trouble now is that I can't find a UK stockist so I think I'll have to start looking for other brands such as Maxtor.

Then boot in Safe Mode, (holding Shift key down at bootup; takes longer to boot this way so be patient), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.

Can anyone recommend a simple Notes/To Do List app

Hello,
I am going crazy looking for a very simple To Do List / Notes app for my iPhone that does what I want it to do. I have spent hours in the Apps store and downloaded over 12 so far, and have not found the right one. Can anyone recommend one that:
-allows for unlimited lists (To Do Home; To Do Out; Grocery List; Xmas Gift List etc).
-allows you to manually SORT these lists by dragging them above or below the other items.
-allows you to enter unlimited items (or a large number of items) within each list
-allows for more than one line of text for each list item (not one line with ". . . ."after it)
-allows you to manually SORT these sublist items.
-opens directly to the page with all lists
-is attractive (even a cute, "mom" way is fine)
-has the auto spelling corrector
I don't care about due dates, syncing with calendars or any other fancy stuff. I basically want it to do what the basic yellow Notes app does, but just with sorting capability.
Thank you very much!

If a site is sending you spam, it has nothing to do with browsing the web; they can't track you down or discover your email address or anything about you, so you don't need a proxy server. They got your email address somewhere, so if your email provider is Gmail or even Yahoo! Mail, you can block them from sending based on their domain and then you won't see anything from them. If your email provider is your ISP, they can block those for you if you call them and ask them to do it.

Is there a way to get the calculator from the dashboard to appear along with other programs? Can anyone recommend a calculator which will work as a stand alone app?

AS it stands now, in order to use the calculator that comes with the Dashboard, you cannot read from a list of numbers in, lets say, word or excel. The dashboard is full screen and nothing can stand along side it. Is there a way to get the calculator from the dashboard to appear along with other programs? Can anyone recommend a calculator which will work as a stand alone app?

there is one, just search with spotlight "Calculator".
It works great!
Hope this helps.
