IChartwork like app for Version 4.0.7 (616)??

Hey all, using iChat Version 4.0.7 (616)
Used to use an app called iChartwork that would send the current cover art for iTunes to iChat as the buddy icon - is this possible any way in Leopard? Searched macupdate/VT and didn't find anything, thought I'd ask here.. cheers

Hi,
I have tried this Script on my G4 running 10.5.6 and iChat 4.0.7 and iTunes 8.0.2
I launched the Script without dragging it to the Installer thingy.
This forced it to open AppleScript Editor.
I then ran it with the Event log option to see what it would do.
For me it worked (once I had started iTunes)
It took some time as it seems to grab several pics and put them in a temp file before moving the Current one to iChat.
Having said that it ends the Event Log with an "End Tell" which means it is no longer running.
Consequently it does not move on to changing the pic to the Next Track
In the Script itself is a comment about this link

I have not taken it further at this point.
On the basis that it comes to an End Tell before re-doing a constant check if iTunes and iChat are running and a track is playing it would seem that the syntax is not current enough for the current iChat (possibly iTunes).
I ma not sure I will have time to check into it further.

  • GB-like app for iPhone/iPad

    Since I'm thinking about getting an iPad - can anyone share experiences with GB-like apps? What I'm looking for is basically a sequencer that allows for sketching ideas on the road - only software instruments, no audio required. And of course some kind of midi export so I can import the stuff into GB later.

    Well there is this.

  • Ibook like app for iMac

    is there any ibook like application for iMac os x?. if yes then what?

    Nope and isn't this quite amazing?  What is Apple thinking? Kindle, Nook, and the others make an app or reader for every platform.  iBooks is for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad.  They are missing quite a bit of the market.  I have both PCs and iMacs.  I don't use iBooks because I can't read them on the PC or iMac.  However, I can read all the others on PCs, Macs, my iPad.
    By the way Apple, I dumped my iPhone last year for a high end Android phone.  I now also don't use iTunes that much anymore either.  I suggest you make iTunes available through Android before you lose that market also.

  • Notepad like app for Playbook

    Does anyone know if there is a basic Note app for the playbook? I know we have Word to Go  on the Playbook but a nice basic text note pad application would be nice...

    Hey michaelwhyte,
    Welcome to the forums.
    When the BlackBerry Playbook is bridged to a BlackBerry you will have access to your MemoPad and Tasks. You can also search in BlackBerry App World for a note pad application. 
    Hope this helps.

  • Photoshop like app for new iPad...

    I'm needing a bit of help here from all you guru's of the iPad world..I'm a iPad newby crossover from the Xoom crowd and am looking for the best iPad app that will let me do the same basic functions that my Photoshop CS5 I use on my PC does...import a picture or photo in and resize it or put a text layer in on it, or create a new blank layer and add color to it with a paint bucket tool and add some text to it or layer in a picture or photo into the work. How about some graduants to the layer. I do a lot of custom logo, avatars, and game sigs work and my CS5 for my PC works super for my work...is there such an app out there for my new iPad like that???

    Really appreciate all your help here guys but as I said, I've been doing a ton of research and have found what I need. FYI...PhotoForge2, Photogene, Signiture iPad, and the new Photoshop Touch all will add text to anything you want but all but the Photoshop Touch have various limited applications they can perform or accomplish.
    After trying all of these and an FYI for Ralph, the last program I picked up, the new version of Photoshop Touch, does it all and darn near all the important things needed that the CS5 on my desktop does. Truly an amazing program for an iPad format. I was very pleasantly surprised and was well worth the $10 bucks it cost me. A thumbs up for James with his suggestion and it was perfect! Thanks again guys!

  • Is there a iTouch App for version 2.1 thats does what SMBPREFS did

    Is there an Itouch APPLICATION that lets you take pictures from the
    internet, your computer, or anything... and LET YOU PUT THEM..... BEHIND
    the apps that are on the main screen of the iTouch?
    I have a "backgrounds" App but I CAN ONLY see that pic after I come
    back from sleep mode. I would like that picture to be behind ALL MY
    APPS as I scroll left and right.
    is theere one like thatfor 2.2 .... for iTouch of 1.1.3 version ther
    is something like SMBPREFS application that allows this to happen but
    I love 2.2 version and dont want to DOWNGRADE just for that REASON.
    SO is there a new APP that lets you put pictures BEHIND the apps on the
    screen as you scroll left and right for 2.2 firmware?

    There is the Compas app but that uses the sun to determine directions since none of the iPods have a built in compass.  The iPhoes 3GS and 4 and iPods have a built-in digital compass.

  • Looking for a Rewind like app for Tiger

    Back when I had my Performa 6360 running OS 8.1, I bought a utility called Rewind from Power on Software. The app could restore my Mac to an earlier date, or restore any file that had been deleted from the trash,etc.. It was more poweful than the similiar features found in TTP, and Norton.
    Does such a utility exist for OSX? Rewind failed (and why Power on is trying to hide any indication that it ever existed) for a number of reasons. For one the utility slowed down my Mac by 50%, and for two the utility created huge archives, and often corrupted its restore rescue soft boot image.
    I know such a utility may not be as essential in OSX as in the earlier OS. That os would often crash for one. My ibook has crashed no more than 20 times in the 10 months I have owned it. My Performa crashed that many times in 1 month alone.

    You wrote: "But I am afraid that Retrospect is not the same as Rewind, or Norton Go Back for Windows."True. However, since you have Retrospect, if you're using Backup Sets for backup, you can Restore a disk for which there is a Backup Set to any point in time for which a backup session exists.
    Perhaps the reason there is no Rewind or Go Back for Mac OS X is because it is far more stable than Windows, as you note.
    Next time you're looking for solutions, I recommend searching MacUpdate or Version Tracker. The user-submitted reviews accompanying the listings are helpful in sorting the wheat from the chaff. Both commercial and shareware/freeware solutions list on those sites and you'll generally find an answer faster than posting here.
    You wrote: "Therefore I have come to the conclusion that this is yet another limitation of owning a Mac...No question my XP box has many advantages, but its also quite obvious that OSX is far more stable and secure than XP."Only you can decide for yourself which platform fits your needs best.
    Good luck!

  • Looking for quicken-like app for small bus

    Before switching to mac I used an old version of quicken.  Basically just a check register, and invoicing.
    I am a sole proprietor, no employees.  Need some simple monthly, quarterly and annual reports. 
    Anyone using anything besides quicken for mac?

    Quicken for mac was released several weeks ago. You can find it on Mac App Store. I usually use it with Numeric Notes for simple invoicing and calculations, wich also available on Mac App Store. Hopes either of apps will be useful for you.

    I need some appz that have similar funcionality like those 2, but r available for Symbian phones (Nokia N95 8GB). Any clues? Thx

    i dont think there is libpcap support on symbian so a good sniffer for symbian is probably not availble, maybe some lower function hex sniffer but porting wireshark to symbian without libpcap will turn out difficult im pretty sure
    contact Gerald Comps (main creator of wireshark) and ask him maybe.

  • I have just updated my Facebook app to version 11.0 - and don't like it - is there anyway for me to get back the previous app - I think it was 6.0 but not positive -

    I Have just updated my iphone 5 Facebook app, to version 11.0 and do not like it. Is it possible for me to go back to my previous version?

    Okay, I found the answer myself. Going to about:config and setting browser.showQuitWarning to true, restored that option and brought it back. Thanks to anyone who is about to post. If this is false by default, it has got to change.

  • How can i see apps on appstore Only suitable apps for my device version?

    When I check apps on app store I want to see only the apps that I can download to my device. Because many apps require higher versions of ios. I have an original ipad and it can have only up to ios 5.1 so apps for ios 5.1 should appear to me. It is really boring to install all the time the apps and then have the error message. It is a very basic issue for users. How can Apple ignore millions of users suffering this?

    You don't need to waste time installing them.  Every app has in the "Information" section a "Compatibility" statement which will include the minimum iOS version required for it to run.
    You can also do a web search for online listings of older compatible apps, like http://www.findoldapps.com/
