Has anyone any experience of MacKeeper which just popped up on my MacBookPro. Is it recommended?

Although MacKeeper, which has just popped up on my MacBookPro, looks good, I would be interested if anyone has installed this and if it's a reliable and useful software item.

MacKeeper is very reliable and useful....for the company that sells it. Not so much for the user. Wjosten took the words right out of my fingers. Avoid it like the plague.

  • Has anyone any experience of the app store constantly downloading the same update?

    I have recently upgraded to Yosemite, but I do not think this issue is related to the new OS.  I was rather hoping the new OS would cure the problem but it has not.  For sometime now my iMac would download the same app update twice, after the second time it seemed to be happy and would not download the app again.  But the latest iTunes update  always appears under updates and shows as being updated four times to the same version!
    Very frustrating.  The screenshot shops three updates already to 12.0.1 of iTunes and it is also telling me 12.0.1. needs updating!  Anyone got any ideas about this please?

    Same problem here. It is constanly downloading Aperture, iPhoto and iWork apps

  • Has anyone any experience with a USB-6008 and reading a thermistor value

    Labview 8.0 connected to a USB-6008
    I am using 'BC Components' NTC Thermistor. I used the express VI to create a Vex input and entered the A,B,& C values from the datasheet. The thermistor is the 10K version and I placed a 10K resistor in series with it. I wired it as is shown in the connection diagram, and applied 2.5 volts to it.
    I get completly the wrong temperature readings out of it! I called the NI help line in the UK and the engineer confirmed that I had done everything correctly but couldn't understand why it didn't work.
    Any thoughts?

    I had a similar problem, had it working at one point then screwed it up.

  • I have an iMac 27" which is 4  years old and probably overdue for a clean-up. Is there any good reliable software out there that would help? Has anyone had any experience of 'Mackeeper'?

    Check how many applications are starting when you log in, I found that if there was a lot of activity at login Finder did not display the icons on the desktop correctly, again like you it did not occur at every login, just occasionally.
    For Safari have you tried resetting Safari, if that does not help you could disable plugins and extensions one at a time. You may find one of those is causing the problem.

  • HT3705 Has anyone any ideas why a Pages file v09 exported from v5 bloats from around 212kb to 5.9mb? I had to export existing template files back from the latest version to v09 due to limited features in latest version.

    Recently updated Pages because of Mavericks update, quickly discovered how limited new version is, exported altered files back to Pages 09 format and re-opened using earlier Pages. In amending to re-save as templates again noticed a 212kb file has bloated to 5.9mb.
    Has anyone any ideas or experience as it will not take long to fill up a 1TB drive at this rate! - I had left behind PC's and MS Office and was reasobaly happy using Pages for business, but it looks like Office for Mac is now going to b eneeded.

    Yes, I opened them all with 5 then re-saved as v5 templates. Then realised other problems with v5 so exported them all back v09 as xxx.pages files. Used some with v09 and noticed they had all increased.
    I just checked again and noticed that the initial v5 saved templates had typically increased from 412kb to 1.1MB (they do have 4 graphics) - then after exporting the templates are 5.9MB in v09 an dthe files are still 412kb.
    I had a similar problem many years ago using RTF files with Word and they kept bloating everytime you edited and saved due to saved or linked graphics?

  • Has anyone got experience of Windows 10 please ?

    Hi,
    Aplogies if this is the wrong board, I could not find a better one.   I'm sure a CL will move it if it is.
    I tried a search for "Windows 10" and all it returned was a post about NetProtect.
    Has anyone got experience of Windows 10 please ?   Is it better or worse than Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 ?
    Best regards,
    dfenceman

    As the "free" upgrade option is available for a year after the launch of Windows 10, I would advise against being an early adopter. There will be the inevitable initial problems that seem to happen to all new Windows operating systems so I would wait for a few months until any problems/glitches etc are ironed out before upgrading your system.

    Wise comments, I think.
    Upgrading to Vista from XP destroyed a very expensive, and powerful 3d graphics program of mine. It's going to cost another £400+ just to upgrade to the Windows 8 version.
    It can be run, with considerable difficulty on Windows 7, in Windows compatibility mode.
    For Windows 10, there are similar considerations.
    There are posts on the Windows, or perhaps Internet Security websites, assuring us that all will be fixed on the day
    Windows states that "most" programs compatible with Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, will be compatible with Windows 10.
    Just wait for a while.

  • Has anyone experienced problems with Mackeeper? I did not complete downloading this software. Yet, occasionally when on the internet, I will have the MacKeeper multi-colored circle replace my pointer. How do you deal with this?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Don't download MacKeeper. Users complain about this app and it damages OS X. Also, Mac OS X knows how to take care of itself, so you don't need any other cleaning application that may damage OS X. See > https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3691

  • My iPad and iPod touch won't play the music I choose. Has anyone any idea what the problem could be?

    Hi,
    Since the IOS 5.0 update my iPad 2 and iPod touch (3e generation) won't play the music I choose. I choose a song from Michael Jackson for example and it's going to play something completely different. The images has changed aswel, so it is a bit strange.
    I treind to sincronise them again, but this doesn't change a thing. Has anyone any idea what could be the problem and how to solve it?
    Kind Regards,
    Ward

    So just in case anyone else ever runs into this...
    I solved the issue and it was that between the plug of the new earbuds being slightly thicker than the Apple earpods, and the width of the case that I was using for my iPod, there wasn't a connection being made to activate the remote function.
    I took off the case and now the earbuds work exactly as they should!

    Panoramic photos. I have a Sony Cybershot camera. My problem is that I can't view my panoramic photos properly with iPhoto.  Sony says to contact Mac support. Has anyone any info on this prob, please?

    Not sure what you want - you shoot the photo by doing a sweep and the camera makes a static JPEG that is long (panaromic) and you import it - on the camera and in iPhoto is is a panaromic photo
      for example

  • Hi I am having trouble with iMessage on the mac book pro, it doesnt sync with the ipad and iPhone, both the ipad and iPhone do but not on the mac book pro , has anyone any suggestions, thanks in advance

    Hi I am having trouble with iMessage on the mac book pro, it doesnt sync with the ipad and iPhone, both the ipad and iPhone do but not on the mac book pro , has anyone any suggestions, thanks in advance

    First, make sure that all your devices are using the same Apple ID in iMessages including your Mac.  Second, your messages that you've already started on your devices will not show up on your Mac - only ones that you start from now on will show up.  Third, if you're still not syncing accross all devices, make sure you read the directions on the first page of this thread.  It should work after performing those steps.  Good luck!
