Looking for an app that allows for screen switching/maximizing

On my PC at work, I have an app that adds another button to the top menubar of all applications/windows. This button, when clicked, will move the window/application to the "other" monitor/display and can even maximize the window to fit the screen. is there an app like that for the Mac
I kinda need this right away - in a bit of a bind.
Thanks

What do you use on the PC? would be useful when iTunes and others insist on always going to last monitor, even when it is no longer present.
Ah... Windows key + Shift + arrow key on Windows.
Buit right in.
Most likely utility would be SwitchResX, but some features have been removed.
Worth giving a try though.

Looking for an iPad(iPad/Mac) app that allows for playlists to migrate to iPad

I am specifially and exclusively looking for recommendations for an iPad(iPad/Mac) app that allows for my playlists to be migrated to iPad intact and playable.
iTunes -> Podcast/Music/Videos does not support mixed (music/video/podcast) playlits or video playlist at all. The app(s) should be able to easily create these playlist on the Mac (and manage content) much like iTunes (10).
On the phone with tech support today and they agree this is missing functionality from Apple. They suggested I reach out on to other users that may have a thrid party solution.

Requires each device/user have an unique Apple ID(verifiable email address):
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/find-my-friends/id466122094?mt=8
Otherwise you can use Find My Phone, but requires logging in for each separate user. Find My Friends(built by Apple) will show everyone's location on one device.

Any SYNC APPs that allow for specific file synchronization for the MacBook Pro??? Please advise..

Any recommendations for a sync app that allows for specific file synchronization rather than just a complete back-up program? I want to be able to synchronize certain files only on multiple external hard-drives?
FYI:[[Using a 15" MacBook Pro on Mac OSX Version 10.6.7, Processor 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory 4GB RAM 1067MHz DDR3]]

I'm pretty sure you should keep Boot Camp 2.1, Scorpio.
I'm not sure about the driver only or complete reinstall question though.
Probably the best place for an answer to this would be over in the BootCamp "Installation and Storage" forum at http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=237 where the "specialists" in this sort of matter hang out.
Post a link to this thread over there as well, so that people will know what has already been suggested.

I'm looking for an app that allows me to print checks. Beancounter does not

I"m looking for an app for MacBook Pro that allows me to print checks for my very small business.
I purchased Beancounter Por (the upgraded version) and it does a fine job of accounting and updateing
balance sheets but it does not support printing checks. Does anyone know of an app that
does?

You and the iPad can function with the Remote App from across the room, or in another room.
However, your stereo system has to have a way to communicate or connect with the computer. Unless it has some kind of wifi connector or has Bluetooth, I don't see how you can do this.
There is no app or software to resolve this. You need a way for the stereo to connect.

Help! Looking for an iPad app that allows for efficiently filling in PDF forms we create. Know of any?

I created a quote form for our sales guys to use in the field and we would like them to be able to have the capability to fill it in on their ipads. Is there an app that will let us do the following:
Fill in a pripriotary form
Click to next field
Force character limits so the text does wrap and print poorly
Edit text after moving on to another field
Printable
Send by email
If an app like this doesn't existion, how much would it cost to commisison someone to create it?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Ah. I'm surprised, but there we go.

Didn't have time to do more than skim, but 'Ardour' looked promising. Protools is the only one I've used, the full product is one of the industry standards, but the free 'lite' version listed here seems to be limited to 2 in/out as well.
Referring to your original post, I'd think trying to write or 'script' something would be a nightmare ... synchronisation of streams within something like Applescript would be a major issue, quite apart from anything else.

A Pebble app that allows for voting up/down as well as advancing the track (no prev in radio mode)

Pebble is touting that with the release of their new "Pebble App Store", happening soon out now, Pandora will have an app that runs on the Pebble allowing you to vote a track up/down as well as advance to the next song. As I subscribe to Spotify and not Pandora, I would LOVE to see this same kind of app coming from Spotify. Currently, the Pebble can control your music, but only through the "now playing" system on a given smartphone. Personally, I have an iPhone 5 and while it works flawlessly to play/pause and advance tracks, having the voting up/down functionality in an actual Spotify app would be amazing.
EDIT: The app store is open, but Pandora have not released their app for some reason. Perhaps they are waiting for the official release of the Steel (I know the promo units had it pre-loaded for reviewers). I think it would be very interesting if Spotify were to beat them to it! There are several other apps from major companies, like Yelp and Foursquare, so this isn't just a niche market. Other companies are realizing the potential, and I'd be really excited if Spotify did, too!
The attached image is from a review on tomsguide.com showing Pandora's Pebble app as it will look while controlling the smartphone it is linked to. I think it's a very clean and simple interface that could easily be replicated by Spotify. The two services, while streaming radio, are very similar. For those of us using Pebble I think it may be tempting to switch without this feature, which is the main reason I have brought this to the ideas forum.

Already created a new idea, but as this already exists, I'll add my UI ideas here too :)
My idea:
Multiple UIs, accessible via a long press of the middle button. There you can choose the screen:
Playback screen:
- up and down will skip tracks while holding them will search in track.
- middle is play/pause
On Volume screen up and down will adjust volume instead of back/forward.
Rating screen:
- Up and down will rate the track while listening to Radio, if listening to playlist they will toggle shuffle/loop
- middle will (un)star the current track.
Playlist selector
- Browse through your playlists and tracks
- middle button to open playlist/play selected track, hold to get options: play next, play radio based on selection, hide (which will hide the selector and go back to last used screen); back navigation with back button.

Is there an app that allows for content to be arranged within an interface similar to the App Store's interface?

I have tried a number of applications for arranging media. The ones I am looking to use at work however, we like to have using feeds from sites like flickr. We have Flipboard, which looks great, and usually works pretty great too, but there are errors and lame things about it. This app arranges images based on upload date, which you have to change manually through flickr to make images display in the correct format which is a pain, and images still will become out of alignment in landscape vs. portrait mode.
I was wondering if there was a media app out there that is arranged similar to the app store? I think this would make for a really slick interface to have. Being able to have heading images and sections along with panning sections lower on the page that allow you to scroll content and click to access a larger view.
Has anyone found really great media displaying apps? Any that happen to be similar to the app store layout? Really, any apps you have found for displaying content would be a great help.
Thanks!

Not that I know of, and having seen a picture of it

Doesn't look all that great, you lose so much of the picture quality just to see a desktop?
Better to have a 1/8 th page window floating on top of other windows instead.

Are there any free APPS that allow for chang/embellish the folder icon

tired of blue folders.
there must be some kind of app that can change its appearance or change color or whatever.
can one change the text font of indiv folders?
wouldnt one expect this from OS X4.6
im shocked it has to be the same old blue folder

Hi, Glenn.
You can assign any icon you want to a file or folder: see "Mac OS X 10.4 Help: Changing the icon of a file or folder.”.
You can find nice sets of icons (what you need for step 1) at sites like Icon Factory or ResExcellence.
Some folks really like the inexpensive shareware application FolderBrander for customizing folders. There's a free trial period and it seems very reasonably priced for what it does.
The freeware application TinkerTool will allow you to change some of the default fonts used in Tiger.
When looking for new applications, I recommend searching MacUpdate or Version Tracker. The user-submitted reviews accompanying the listings can be helpful in sorting the wheat from the chaff.
Good luck!

Is there an app that allows for things like aperture effects on video recording?

Title says it all, I'm looking for an app where when video recording on my iPhone, it can focus on me, but blur out the background

I think it would be easier to buy a post-production app like iMovie, and edit that, then.

When will a free app that allows for me to read on my mac like on my iPad be available?

I recently bought a 13 inch macbook air, and I was thrilled. Now, I have to read the Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for school. I got the book on my iPad for free on my iBooks app, but when I realized that my dad would need my iPad for work more often, I went onto the app store for my macbook and I was very surprised to find that there wasn't an iBooks for mac. I was fully aware of the fact when I bought my macbook that there wouldn't be any "decent games" on the app store for the mac, but I never imagined that there wouldn't be an iBooks! Does anyone know a FREE app that can take the place of iBooks on the app store for macbooks?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
There are many folks who feel as you do, wondering why Apple doesn't have an equivalent to iBooks for the Mac. Many other eBook formats; Nook, Kindle, Kobo, Zinio, etc have reader apps to read the books on both Macs and iOS devices.
This will help with this one problem, here is a link to another free electronic version of your book that comes in formats that can be read on your Mac;
http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/The-Strange-Case-of-Dr-Jekyll-and-Mr-Hyde
You may have to open a free membership with free-ebooks.net to download your preferred format. I would go for the pdf, which you can read on your Mac, but also in an app on your iOS devices as well.

Looking for an app that allows a contact to ring even in silent mode

Has anyone come across an app yet that will allow the phone to still ring even in silent mode?
I want to be able to NOT hear any of the emails or texts at night when I go to sleep but at the same time, I want to be able to have the phone ring through from certain contacts - in case of emergencies from my parents or my son.
This seems like a pretty simple request.

there isnt an app, but if you want to spend $99 like i did, you can get the beta version of IOS 6. It has that exact feature built in! It only rings emergency contacts and also if someone calls multiple times in 3 mintues or less. Its a cool feature. With the $99, you get IOS 6 with all the new featues like maps etc... This isnt realeased to public untill fall.https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/index.action

How do I create an installer for my project that allows for variable data entry like a server unc path?

Hello All,
I have a questions and a few hours of scouring the internet hasn't brought me much closer to an answer.
Here's what I want to do. I have created a visual c# wpf application. I want to have an installer that during install time will have a text box or something where I can enter a server path as a string. Basically my application needs to know where to look
for a server unc path \\server\somesharedfolder that it will be accessing primarily for its work. Secondly, how do I reference said information from within my code.
I have come across application/user scoped settings, which appears to be what I'm looking for. However I can't find a way to have the installer prompt for a value "Server Path:" __________ that I could type into during installation. So far it appears
the only way would be to edit the config.deploy file before running the installer, which isn't a big deal but you'd think there'd be an easy way to take in variables during install.
EDIT: Apparently I can't edit the config.deploy file as I get an error message about the hash not matching.
Thanks for your help!

Hello,
The forums I found confusing, didn't know the best place to put this question so I put it here.
I have found the answer over at stackoverflow and will detail here for anyone who may stumble across the same problem.
The problem is ClickOnce seemingly doesn't support this feature. Installshield LE either doesn't or does but its incredibly too complicated if all you need is one variable passed to the registry during installation. And it seems the words used for googling
this particular problem will never lead you to the solution.
So here's how to do it (we will be first adding the Visual Studio Installer Add-on to restore original installer project functionality):
1) Inside of visual studio 2013 go to Tools -> Extensions and Updates
2) On the left-hand side click on Online -> Visual Studio Gallery
3) In the upper-right search box search for "Visual Studio Installer"
4) Download the extension labeled "Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects"
5) Install, then open a new project under Templates -> Other Project Templates -> Visual Studio Installer -> Setup Project
6) Now for the gold. In the solution explorer there are icons in a bar just below its title bar, highlight till you see "User Interface Setup" and open it.
7) Now you can right click on Start, Progress, End etc any Category heading and hit Add Dialog.
8) From here for my purposes, I used TextBoxes A
9) Once you add it, click on it and observe its properties window. You will see Label, Property, and Value. Make a note of the property name as it will be used to store the data directly into the registry. *Note: there appears to be no way to perform data
validation using the built in textbox dialogs, users can enter whatever they want and move on.
10) Go to the registry editor on the same icon bar under solution explorer.
11) Specify your registry folder, make a new value (I used string) and name it whatever you like. In the value section enter the property label formatted as such [EDITA1] depending on your value.
12) Now when you run the installer for your project, it will take data into that field and place it into the registry provided it has access to that key with the permissions you run the program under.

I'm looking for an app that will allow a presenter to give ipads to several other users in a room and control what's on display for the group

please let me know if you know of any good apps to sync up several ipads in a room with one person in control. I'm looking for an app that will allow a presenter to control what's on display for several other ipad users in a room. I'd like to be able to do presentations over the ipad, but i want the presenter to control the screens so folks in the meetings don't get distracted by playing with the ipad. i'd like to avoid using a web meeting service and do this without having to connect to any kind of network since i'll often be doing this outside of my office.

Try http://mysyncpad.com/. I'm not sure if it will do all you need, but it's the closest I've seen.
